Chapter 2526 - The Former Mercenary King

Chapter 2526 The Former Mercenary King
duan ling tian treated his manager, du wei, like a brother in his past life. therefore, when du wei told him that he wanted to practice the form and will boxing, he had personally taught du wei. when he saw that du wei was rather impatient in practicing, he had written a boxing manual of the form and will boxing for du wei.
when duan ling tian died in his past life, du wei was still a beginner in form and will boxing. he did not expect that after only such a short time, not only did du wei become one of the top super soldiers, but du wei had also gained this status from the form and will boxing manual he had left behind.

i wonder if long zhen guo, the head of soul of yan huang, is instructor long?
in duan ling tian’s past life, his manager, du wei, whom he treated like a brother was his best friend. however, the person he had respected the most was his instructor. long zhen guo was the person who had trained him into the mercenary king. although his strength surpassed long zhen guo later, he had never lost his respect for long zhen guo even after he had retired. he had never heard of the soul of yan huang in his past life.
after a while, duan ling tian was about to reveal himself to du wei whom he used to treat like a brother. however, the conversation on the luxury cruise ship stopped him.
…
the brown-haired beauty who had remained silent up until now finally spoke up,
master, who’s that wretched man you mentioned?

both the black-haired and golden-haired beauties turned to look at du wei curiously as well.

master, i’m curious. who’s that wretched man?


please tell us, master.

du wei took out a limited edition cigar. after the golden-haired lit the cigar for him, he smoked and replied,
a few decades ago, that wretched man was the strongest man on earth.

the strongest man on earth? the three beauties were taken aback by du wei’s words. they had not been born when earth went through the nirvana change. at that time, the technology on earth was not what it was now. there were no super soldiers or flying cars. to be widely acknowledged as the strongest man on earth, one could just imagine how terrifying that man was. why did du wei call such a man ‘a wretched man’?
a thought appeared in the black-haired beauty’s mind, and she asked,
master, are you talking about the former mercenary king, ling tian?

upon hearing the black-haired beauty’s words, du wei narrowed his eyes and looked at her pointedly.
you’ve heard of him?

the black-haired beauty was so terrified that her face turned pale. after a while, she replied timidly,
i… i heard about him from my uncle who used to be a mercenary. he respected mercenary king ling tian very much.

…
in the sky above the luxury cruise ship.

mercenary king ling tian!
duan ling tian seemed to have fallen into a daze when he heard these words from the black-haired beauty. it had been a long time since he had heard this familiar title.
duan ling tian who was lost in his thoughts of his past life regained his senses when a voice rang next to him.
ling tian? that person has the same name as you!


you’re here as well?
duan ling tian discovered that tang xiao xiao had arrived at some point.

you’re behaving strangely so i decided to follow you.
tang xiao xiao chuckled.
you’re so lost in thought, listening to that woman speak about the mercenary king, that you didn’t even realize when i came over.
she shot duan ling tian a meaningful look. with his strength, he should have been able to sense her presence before she even arrived even if he was lost in his thoughts. based on the conversation she overheard, although she was not certain, she suspected that the strongest man on earth, mercenary king ling tian, was duan ling tian.
duan ling tian looked at her and asked,
would you believe me if i tell you that i’m mercenary king ling tian?


it’s really you?
tang xiao xiao was shocked when duan ling tian confirmed her suspicion. although she had suspected it, she still had some doubts after all. however, when she saw the solemn expression on his face, she knew he was telling the truth. based on their interactions so far, he was not someone who would lie. regardless, it was still difficult to accept. how did an ordinary man from planet yan huang become an eminent celestial after a few decades? moreover, he had strength comparable to a nine tribulation bodiless celestial even though he came from a small mundane realm, the saint province realm!
while all these thoughts were running through tang xiao xiao’s mind, duan ling tian had already turned his attention back to the luxurious cruise ship.
…
faced with the curious gazes from the three beauties, du wei took a drag from the cigar and slowly said,
not bad. you’re right. the wretched man i mentioned is mercenary king ling tian. i used to be his manager.

the three beauties were shocked by du wei’s words. this man was the head of one of the strongest super soldier organizations on earth, some country leaders even had to lower their heads in front of him! it was not a stretch to say he currently held one of the highest positions on earth. and yet, he said he used to be mercenary king ling tian’s manager a few decades ago?
du wei continued to say nonchalantly,
all this time, i’ve never told anyone about this. since all of you are curious, i’ll tell you about it. initially, i wanted to become his manager due to the benefits he would be able to bring me. since he was used to being alone and was filled with distrust, it was extremely difficult for me to approach him. however, with how resourceful i am, it was not difficult for me to find a way to gain his trust.

…
at this moment, duan ling tian’s expression was turning darker and darker when he listened to du wei’s words. as it turned out, du wei had staged their meeting and pretended to save his life. at that time, he had felt moved and allowed du wei to stay next to him as his manager. who knew everything was a lie since the beginning?
tang xiao xiao had also heard of du wei’s words, and she noticed the dark expression on duan ling tian’s face when he heard those words. based on du wei’s words, she could roughly guess that ling tian must have died due to du wei’s schemes. she became confused. ‘is duan ling tian really mercenary king ling tian? it seems like that ling tian died a few decades ago…’
…
the three sexy bikini-clad beauties were thoroughly frightened when they heard du wei’s words. at the same time, they became guarded as well. he had betrayed mercenary king ling tian who had treated him as a brother and caused his death! they truly despise such an act, but they did not dare to show their contempt.
du wei continued to speak,
if ling tian were still alive, with his achievement in form and will boxing, it would have been easy for him to become the strongest person on earth! it’s unfortunate that he had no fate with that title. although in the past he was also acknowledged as the strongest man on earth, he would still die if the major countries sent a troop of soldiers to deal with him. the current me is different from him. even if the major countries send their troops to kill me, they’ll only fail miserably.
a confident and smug expression on his face when he finished speaking.
du wei paused for a moment before he finally said,
i’ve been keeping this matter in my heart for the longest time, i’ve never told a single soul about what happened. it really feels good to be able to speak about this with all of you.
he looked at the three beauties coldly before he continued to say,
i have no intention of letting other people find out about this. it would be detrimental to my reputation after all. for this reason, three of you will have to pay the price for your curiosity.
his eyes flashed with killing intent when he finished speaking.
the three beauties cowered in fear when they heard these words. they quickly begged for mercy.

master, we definitely won’t spread this matter out!

du wei smiled.
only the dead can keep a secret.

du wei was about to make a move when an indifferent voice rang from the sky.
since you dare to do it, is there a need to be afraid of people talking about it?
