Chapter 1801: Duan Ling Tian Is Sentenced To Death?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Li Feng was Ling Tian, and Ling Tian was Li Feng. Apart from Duan Ling Tian, only Gu Li knew about this.

For this reason, he was not surprised when he heard Meng Qing’s words.

“He must have learned about it.” Duan Ling Tian nodded in response to Meng Qing’s question. He could roughly guess Meng Qing’s intention for summoning him here.

He must be worried his master would be interested in the Devil Dao Cultivation Method that Xu Jing cultivated.

Meng Qing did not know that his master was only someone made up by him. Even Meng Qing, the Mansion Master, had to tread carefully when it came to a powerhouse from the Upper Province.

“We’ll just leave it at that if that Devil Dao Cultivation Method is an inhumane type. However, if it’s a normal type, our Mystical Sky Mansion is willing to share it with your master as well,” Meng Qing said to Duan Ling Tian bluntly as his eyes gleamed.

“Mansion Master, I…” Duan Ling Tian did not expect Meng Qing would say such words. He was momentarily stunned.

He was about to continue speaking when Meng Qing interrupted him by saying, “Let’s just go with this. After all, if it wasn’t for you and your senior brother, our Mystical Sky Mansion wouldn’t have been able to obtain this Devil Dao Cultivation Method. However, currently, we still haven’t obtained the Devil Dao Cultivation Method. We’ll have to wait a year and a half for the soul of the Young Mansion Master to recover a little before we can use the Soul Searching Secret Tactic on him!”

“Mansion Master, my master and his disciples have no interest in that Devil Dao Cultivation Method,” Duan Ling Tian finally said after Meng Qing finished speaking.

“No interest in that Devil Dao Cultivation Method?” Meng Qing was baffled by Duan Ling Tian’s words.

It was a top-rated Devil Dao Cultivation Method after all!

To think there were people who were not interested in it?

‘It seems like Ling Tian’s master is not a simple person even in the Upper Province,’ Meng Qing thought to himself as he shuddered inwardly.

“Don’t worry, Mansion Master. We, master and disciples, have no intention toward that Devil Dao Cultivation Method at all. Moreover, I’ll also keep the fact that the Mystical Sky Mansion has obtained the Devil Dao Cultivation Method a secret,” Duan Ling Tian continued to say.

Upon hearing that, Meng Qing studied Duan Ling Tian for a moment before he said, “No matter what, you’ve done a meritorious deed for the Mystical Sky Mansion. Originally, I plan to share that Devil Dao Cultivation Method with your master and his disciples to return the favor. However, it did not cross my mind that all of you are not interested in that Devil Dao Cultivation Method. In that case, the Mystical Sky Mansion and I will need to repay your favor in some other form.” When Meng Qing reached the end of the sentence, he asked, “Tell me, what kind of rewards do you want? Perhaps, there’s something the Mystical Sky Mansion can do for you?”

“Mansion Master, if it’s possible, I wish for the Mystical Sky Mansion to help me search for some materials.” Duan Ling Tian realized this was an opportunity for him to speed up his search for the materials to repair the fourth level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda’s fourth level.

As one of the two great Guardians of Mystical Sky Mansion, Gu Ci Yun definitely had many connections. However, he was still inferior compared to the force of the entire Mystical Sky Mansion.

If Mansion Master Meng Qing passed down an order on his behalf, the search would definitely increase in efficiency with the entire Mystical Sky Mansion helping him to search for the materials.

“Materials? What materials?” Meng Qing was puzzled.

“I’ve already drawn the materials and passed it to Guardian Gu so he can help me search for it. If you really want to repay me, Mansion Master Meng Qing, please help me search for these materials as well. They’re very important to me and my master,” Duan Ling Tian replied.

“Alright, I understand.” Meng Qing nodded. “I’ll look for Guardian Gu later and get copies of the drawing. The Mystical Sky Mansion will do its best to search for those materials for you! This is my promise to you!” Meng Qing was the Mansion Master of Mystical Sky Mansion. He was, naturally, a man of his words.

For this reason, Duan Ling Tian did not doubt his words at all. “Thank you, Mansion Master.”

“This small deed is nothing compared to your contribution to the Mystical Sky Mansion,” Meng Qing said with a wave of his hand.

Small deed?

Duan Ling Tian remained composed when he heard Meng Qing’s words. Perhaps, this was just a small deed for Meng Qing. However, this was an important matter to him.

These materials were needed to repair the fourth level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda. In his opinion, this was much more appealing than that Devil Dao Cultivation Method that the Young Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion, Xu Jing, cultivated.

Naturally, Duan Ling TIan did not say anything.

What could he say?

He could not reveal the existence of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, could he?

He was absolutely certain if he revealed the existence of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, the Mansion Master of Mystical Sky Mansion would most likely kill him to obtain the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda.

The Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda was just too tempting!

If he was in Meng Qing’s shoes as the Mansion Master of Mystical Sky Mansion, it would rouse his greed as well. Especially when the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda was merely in the possession of a weak disciple.

The Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda was a Celestial Supreme Treasure, and even in the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land, it was considered valuable.

As a quasi third-rate force, an elite force in the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land, it was naturally easy for Mystical Sky Mansion to search for the materials.

As Meng Qing passed down his order, all of the Mystical Sky Mansion’s elders and disciples at every operations point in the Lower Province began to make their moves and searched unreservedly for the materials that Duan Ling Tian needed.

As time passed, half of the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land had been searched by the Mystical Sky Mansion.

Currently, three months had gone by.

Zhao Deng and Zhao Jin who were guarding the Rising Sky Mansion’s estate had also returned to the Mystical Sky Mansion’s estate and were replaced by another two Vice Mansion Masters of Mystical Sky Mansion.

Zhao Ji immediately received news of their return and went to look for them.

As soon as Zhao Ji saw Zhao Jin and Zhao Deng, he instantly asked, “Grandfather, father, did Rong Fan return?”

“No.” Zhao Deng shook his head.

Zhao Jin’s originally solemn expression faded and was replaced with a smile when he saw Zhao Ji. “Ji’er, you didn’t neglect your cultivation, right?”

“No.” Zhao Ji shook his head before walking next to him in just three steps. “Grandfather, now that both of you have returned, don’t you think you should discuss with Lord Mansion Master about using the Soul Searching Secret Tactic on the Xu Jing, Young Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion?”

Zhao Ji wanted that Devil Dao Cultivation Method that Xu Jing cultivated. He even dreamed about it.

“Ji’er, I know you want to cultivate that cultivation method, but no matter what, that cultivation method is still a Devil Dao Cultivation Method. Currently, we still have no idea what type of Devil Dao Cultivation Method it is. If it’s the inhumane kind, it would be impossible for us to cultivate it even if we get our hands on it. For this reason, you must mentally prepare yourself for the worst case scenario,” Zhao Jin said.

Zhao Ji remained noncommittal when he heard Zhao Jin’s words. He said, “Grandfather, you just said it’s still not certain. What if that Devil Dao Cultivation Method is those normal type?”

“There’s also this possibility.” Zhao Jin nodded. When he looked at Zhao Ji again, a hint of fondness could be seen in his eyes, “Ji’er, how can I possibly not want to perform the Soul Searching Secret Tactic on Xu Jing and obtain his cultivation method? However, currently, he’s just too weak. Although we can perform the Soul Searching Secret Tactic on him, his soul might not be able to endure it and shatter completely. Based on his injury, I think we’ll need another year and a half, at least, before his soul recovers enough to endure the Soul Searching Secret Tactic,” Zhao Jin said.

“A year and a half? That long?” Zhao Ji was disappointed. He was already getting tired of waiting. It did not cross his mind that he would have to wait for at least another year and a half.

Upon seeing the disappointment on Zhao Ji’s face, Zhao Jin’s heart ached a little so he quickly reassured him, “Ji’er, it’s only a year and a half! It’ll pass by in just a blink of an eye. In this year and a half, cultivate properly and strive to break through to the Mastery Refined Saint Stage! I promise you, if there’s no problem with that Devil Dao Cultivation Method, I’ll pass it to you immediately after I receive it.”

“Thank you, Grandfather.” Zhao Ji forced a smile on his face.

Suddenly, a figure he hated to the core appeared in his mind. Then, he said, “Ling Tian! Grandfather, the matter with the Rising Sky Mansion has been dealt with. So can we come up with ways to deal with Ling Tian now?”

Zhao Ji’s face immediately turned red from anger the moment he thought about Duan Ling Tian. His hatred toward him was etched deeply in his bones now.

As long as Duan Ling Tian was still breathing, he would not be able to have a good night sleep.

Upon hearing Zhao Ji’s words and sensing his hatred, the fondness in Zhao Jin’s eyes disappeared immediately. It was replaced by a terrifying killing intent. “Don’t worry, Ji’er… I promise you that Ling Tian won’t be able to live for long!”

“Father,” Zhao Deng chimed in at this moment, “I heard that Lord Mansion Master is using the force of the entire Mystical Sky Mansion to search for some materials for Ling Tian. Although Lord Mansion Master did not accept him as his disciple, it seems he values him as much as he would value his own direct disciple.”

“I know about this matter as well. However, Lord Mansion Master is only doing this because Ling Tian has rejected Lord Mansion Master’s proposal to share that Devil Dao Cultivation Method with him and his Master. Lord Mansion Master is only helping him due to his contribution regarding that Devil Dao Cultivation Method.” Naturally, Zhao Jin was privy to more matters than Zhao Deng.

“Even if we’re going to kill Ling Tian, we won’t be doing it in the Mystical Sky Mansion’s estate. We must think of a way to make him leave the estate before we make a move! As long as we’re meticulous with our plan, no one will find out who killed him. Even if someone suspects us, they can’t do anything without any evidence. The same applies to Lord Mansion Master!” Zhao Jin said. When he spoke, his eyes brightened even more.

Zhao Deng nodded.

Zhao Ji, on the other hand, was so excited that his face was flushed. His eyes gleamed coldly as he said through clenched teeth, “Ling Tian, you won’t be able to live for long now! Nobody has ever survived my grandfather’s assassination before! In the future, when you’re on the way to the netherworld, you can only blame yourself for being unlucky! When you offended me, you’ve already been sentenced to death!”

Zhao Ji sentenced Duan Ling Tian to death in his heart.
