Duan Ling Tian was, naturally, unaware of Bai Li Hong’s mental state. Even if he was aware of it, he would not feel contempt. Instead, he felt moved since he knew his senior brother had only acted that way out of concern for him.
While Tan Chi and the two Dark Nether Sect’s elders stared at Duan Ling Tian warily, Duan Ling Tian’s gaze was focused outside the courtyard as he said faintly,
Isn’t there another person? Shouldn’t you come out now?

Everyone’s eyes, including Tan Chi and Bai Li Hong, instantly shifted to that direction in unison. They did not even realize someone was there.

You’re really worthy of being the Interim Advisor of Situ Clan, and your fame is well deserved!
At this moment, a figure walked into the courtyard. It was a middle-aged man dressed in a green robe.
The middle-aged man’s face was like jade, and there was a cinnabar mole between his eyebrows. He looked calm as he walked into the courtyard, sizing up Duan Ling Tian.



Zhou Shu!
Tan Chi’s eyes lit up when he saw the green-clad middle-aged man. This was because the green-clad middle-aged man was the person-in-charge of the Dark Nether Sect’s base at the capital of Windfall Nation. He was also one of the Vice Sect Leaders of Dark Nether Sect. The green-clad middle-aged man’s strength was superior to him.
Apart from that, Zhou Shu was also a powerhouse ranked in the Heaven Ranking. However, Zhou Shu only ranked 30th in the Heaven Ranking. His ranking was not as good as Duan Ling Tian.
Nonetheless, this did not mean Zhou Shu was not as strong as Duan Ling Tian because Zhou Shu had held that position since ten years ago. During the last ten years, no one could move him from his rank at all.
In the past decade, people from Windfall Nation were also curious as to why Zhou Shu did not challenge those powerhouses who ranked ahead of him. There were many changes in the top 30 places in the Heaven Ranking. In fact, quite a few people who ranked behind Zhou Shu had already entered the top ten of the Heaven Ranking. Only Zhou Shu remained unmoved as though he was willingly staying at the 30th place.
Only a few people from the Dark Nether Sect knew the reason behind Zhou Shu’s action. It was not that he wanted to stay at the current ranking. He was building his strength so that in the future he would be able to enter the top three in the Heaven Ranking in one go. This would certainly bring glory to Zhou Shu, and it was also a good opportunity for the Dark Nether Sect to become famous.
At that time, people would talk about how the Vice Sect Leader of Dark Nether Sect had jumped from the 30th place to the top three in the Heaven Ranking. If that happened, there would be more people who would join the Dark Nether Sect.
As one of the Vice Sect Leaders of Dark Nether Sect, Tan Chi was, naturally, aware of this matter. In fact, he even thought Zhou Shu was stronger than Windfall Nation’s Lady Feng. In his opinion, Zhou Shu’s current strength was comparable to the Interim Advisor of Situ Clan, Duan Ling Tian, who had defeated Lady Feng. Therefore, when he saw Zhou Shu, it was as though he had seen his savior.
After Zhou Shu revealed himself, Duan Ling Tian ignored him and looked at Bai Li Hong before he said with a smile,
Senior Brother, bring me to the Dark Nether Sect. We’ll go and bring Uncle Feng and the others to the capital.
Based on his words, one could see his disregard of Zhou Shu, Tan Chi, and the others.
Tan Chi’s face darkened immediately. It was the first time he was ignored by a non-Saint Stage powerhouse.
Even if the other party was a powerhouse on the Heaven Ranking and was stronger than him, he still could not bear it. Tan Chi sneered.
Even if you’re the Interim Advisor of Situ Clan, you think you’ll be able to demand people from the Dark Nether Sect? How naïve!



If it was another seventh-rate force that had strength comparable to the Situ Clan, the Dark Nether Sect might have been warier. However, he was completely unafraid of the Situ Clan.
This was because the Dark Nether Sect had a close relationship with the Situ Clan. In his opinion, even if the Situ Clan knew Duan Ling Tian’s friends were enslaved by the Dark Nether Sect, they still would not interfere in the matter.
Meanwhile, Zhou Shu had a displeased expression on his face as well. As someone who was only second to the Sect Leader and supreme elders in the Dark Nether Sect, he was naturally prideful. Duan Ling Tian had angered him by ignoring him. His eyes gleamed with killing intent as True Energy began to circulate in his body. The Devil Qi in the True Energy appeared as well, turning the atmosphere bleak.

Who says I’m demanding for people from the Dark Nether Sect?
Duan Ling Tian glanced at Tan Chi with disdain in his eyes.
With all you idiots in the Dark Nether Sect, isn’t it easy for me to get them out myself?

All you idiots in the Dark Nether Sect!
Duan Ling Tian’s words seemed to have touched their sore spots. Not only did Tan Chi’s expression change dramatically, but even Zhou Shu and the two elders’ expressions changed as well as they glared at Duan Ling Tian coldly.

You’re seeking death!
Tan Chi growled. However, he did not make a move. Instead, he glanced at Zhou Shu.
Although he was furious, he still retained his rationality. It might be possible for him to fight Duan Ling Tian if he used underhanded methods, but it was impossible for him to win in a direct confrontation.

How arrogant! Do you really think you’re invincible after defeating Drift Blaze Sect’s Lady Feng and replacing her on the Heaven Ranking?
Zhou Shu stepped forward as the Devil Qi around him stirred. He directed his ice-cold gaze that was as piercing as a knife at Duan Ling Tian.

I don’t dare to say I’m invincible… However, I’m not worried about defeating all you idiots from the Dark Nether Sect,
Duan Ling Tian said faintly with a calm expression.



You’re really seeking death!
Finally, Zhou Shu could not bear it anymore as the True Energy and Devil Qi from his body surged out.
At the same time, a chilling aura began to rise in the area within a hundred-meter radius. This was Zhou Shu’s True Energy Consolidated Territory.
While his Territory gradually appeared, a gigantic beast shrouded in blood-red energy and a huge ax appeared above Zhou Shu.
The giant beast instantly lunged toward Duan Ling Tian with its mouth wide open as though it intended to swallow him. The giant ax swept across the sky as though it was capable of tearing it apart and cutting Duan Ling Tian into two.
Duan Ling Tian remained calm even though Zhou Shu had already made the first move. There were no signs of fear on his face at all.

Destruction!
Suddenly, Duan Ling Tian spat out a word.
At this moment, it was as though space had ripped open from the swift and piercing sword rays that were flying about in the area in within a hundred-meter radius of Duan Ling Tian. As soon as the sword rays appeared, it seemed to chase off the chilly and oppressive aura, completely nullifying it. It was as though it was never there at all.
In just a blink of an eye, tens of thousands of sword rays appeared in within a hundred-meter radius of Duan Ling Tian.
It was his 10,000 Swords Territory!
Not only was the 10,000 Swords Territory powerful, but its speed was also faster than ordinary Territories.


Before Zhou Shu’s Territory was completely formed, the 10,000 Swords Territory that was cast later had already taken form and destroyed Zhou Shu’s unformed Territory. The entire process looked as easy as crushing dried leaves, there was no resistance at all.

Impossible!
When Zhou Shu saw this, his eyes widened in shock. There was an expression of disbelief on his face.
Although he had heard about the overwhelming strength of Duan Ling Tian’s Territory, he had thought its power was similar to Lady Feng’s Territory. He did not expect his Territory to be defenseless before Duan Ling Tian’s Territory. It was so easily destroyed.
For a time, he could not believe this.
Xiu! Xiu! Xiu! Xiu! Xiu!
…
At this moment, when Zhou Shu was still in shock, with just a thought from Duan Ling Tian, the thousands of swords from the 10,000 Swords Territory flew out and destroyed Zhou Shu’s giant ax and giant beast that was solidified from his True Energy Consolidated Weapon and True Energy Consolidated Beast in just a blink of an eye. The entire process was as smooth as flowing water.

This…
After seeing this, Tan Chi, Bai Li Hong, and the two other Dark Nether Sect’s elders’ eyes widened in disbelief. It took a while before they regained their senses.
Although they knew Duan Ling Tian was strong, they did not expect him to be so strong. Tan Chi, in particular, since he knew Zhou Shu’s strength. However, even Zhou Shu was defenseless in front of Duan Ling Tian. He found this hard to swallow.
Before the four of them even regained their senses, the tens of thousands of sword rays from the 10,000 Swords Territory had gathered under Duan Ling Tian’s feet and formed a life-like flying sword. A swift and piercing sword intent radiated from it. It even caused ripples in the air as though space was about to rip open.


When Zhou Shu sensed the terrifying sword intent radiating from the flying sword under Duan Ling Tian’s feet, he felt his heart drop.
Although it did not seem like Duan Ling Tian was using any Saint Grade Martial Tactic, the terrifying sword intent radiating from the flying sword under Duan Ling Tian’s feet was even more terrifying than any offensive move from a Human Rank Prominent Saint Grade Martial Tactic that had been cultivated to its peak.
He had no intention of resisting.
‘Run!’ At this moment, Zhou Shu only had one thought left in his mind, and he immediately acted upon it.
When faced with a life or death situation, he had no time to think about anything else. The only thought he had was to save his own life.

Vice Sect Leader Zhou, are you trying to escape?
The two Dark Nether Sect’s elders were shocked when they witnessed this scene.
Xiu!
At this instant, Bai Li Hong, Tan Chi, and the two Dark Nether Sect’s elders heard a short-lived cry. It disappeared as soon as it appeared.
Among the four of them, only Tan Chi alone clearly saw the sword ray that swept past.
Duan Ling Tian had flown out as he stepped on the flying word. In just a blink of an eye, before Zhou Shu managed to run far away, the flying sword decapitated Zhou Shu like a hot knife through butter.
The entire process was so fast that for a moment, there was no blood at all. It was not until the flying sword had flown a distance away that blood began to rain down.
Zhou Shu was dead!
In the next moment, Bai Li Hong, Tan Chi, and the other two elders’ eyes shifted to the purple-clad young man standing on the flying sword in the air with his hand clasped on his back.
