Translator: KurazyTolanzuraytor Editor: Jay
He spoke as if Duan Ling Tian would surely die today.
"What? Even now you still think that you can kill me?" When faced with Ye Xiang’s overestimation of his abilities, Duan Ling Tian couldn’t help but laugh in disdain.
"I can’t kill you, but the experts in my Ye Clan are numerous like the clouds. Killing a little kid like you is extremely simple." Ye Xiang wiped the bloodstain on the corner of his mouth as he laughed coldly.
"So in this way, no matter what, I’m unable to escape death? Even if I kill you now, I don’t have to have any scruples?" Duan Ling Tian smiled as he took a step forward.
Duan Ling Tian’s words caused Ye Xiang’s face to go pale, and he hurriedly shouted out. "Kid, if you take another step forward, I’ll make that lowly servant by your side die a graveless death!"
Right at this moment, Duan Ling Tian, whose face had sunk, attacked once more.
Slap!
Another slap swung onto the other side of Ye Xiang’s face, causing it to become swollen and for Ye Xiang to become another ‘pig head,’ following in the footsteps of Feng Hao.
"You… You…" Ye Xiang was slapped to the point he felt dizzy and his vision blurred, and he wasn’t capable of finishing a complete sentence for a long time.
"I’ll cut off the tongue of anyone who dares insult Tian Wu again!" Duan Ling Tian’s eyes flickered with a cold light as he shouted out with a grim voice.
Instantly, Ye Xiang and Feng Hao were terrified to the point of not daring to say another word, yet a ruthless sheen was still contained in the depths of their eyes.
If they had the sufficient strength, they’d have killed Duan Ling Tian since long ago.
Presently, they purely bowed because of circumstances.
Duan Ling Tian naturally noticed the gazes of Ye Xiang and Feng Hao, yet he couldn’t be bothered to pay attention to it.
"Tian Wu, it’s boring here, let’s return." Duan Ling Tian looked at Feng Tian Wu and smiled lightly.
"Mmm." Feng Tian Wu was looking with slight infatuation at Duan Ling Tian, and when she saw Duan Ling Tian look over, she instantly lowered her head in embarrassment.
But in next to no time, Feng Tian Wu’s beautiful face darkened.
"Tian Wu, what’s wrong?!" When he saw Feng Tian Wu’s abrupt change in expression, Duan Ling Tian’s heart jerked.
Whoosh!
But, Feng Tian Wu didn’t respond to Duan Ling Tian, and she directly flashed out like a ball of crimson red flame that swept toward Feng Hao.
Instantly, Feng Hao was enveloped in flames.
"AH!!" A miserable shrill cry sounded out suddenly, and then it stopped abruptly.
In the next moment, the flames shook and transformed into a fiery red figure, a graceful and pretty figure.
Bang!
An enormous bang sounded out, it was Feng Hao who has his eyes wide open as he fell directly to the ground and was completely devoid of any signs of life.
He was dead!
After Feng Hao’s corpse fell to the ground, the surroundings were deathly silent.
The surrounding crowd of Feng Clan disciples that were spectating the event stared at the young woman in fiery red clothes with a dumbstruck expression, and they were unable to say a single word for a long time.
After a long time, they recovered from their shock.
"Heavens! I’m not seeing things, right? She… She killed Feng Hao?"
"Feng Hao is the only grandson of the Third Elder. The Third Elder’s son died earlier, and Feng Hao is the only descendant that remains in his family… With Feng Hao’s death, his bloodline can be considered to have been completely cut off!"
"She’s too ruthless! Even if she’d the granddaughter of Senior Xu, the Eldest Master isn’t able to protect her, since she killed Feng Hao."
"Yeah. No matter how much the Eldest Master respects Senior Xu, but the granddaughter of Senior Xu had killed the only grandson of the Third Elder… If the Eldest Master interferes in this, it would be difficult for him to give the Third Elder an explanation this time."
…
The group of Feng Clan disciples whispered in discussion.
Many people couldn’t help but shake their heads as they looked at Feng Tian Wu, and their eyes revealed traces of pity.
Obviously, they didn’t think that Feng Tian Wu would be able to survive.
"Tian Wu." Duan Ling Tian couldn’t help but be stunned when he saw Feng Tian Wu directly kill Feng Hao.
But he was merely stunned for a moment.
He glanced indifferently at Ye Xiang who stood nearby while shivering, and then his gaze moved onto Feng Tian Wu before lightly smiling. "Tian Wu, let’s go back."
"Mmm." Feng Tian Wu’s beautiful face seemed to be covered in a layer of ice, yet when she heard Duan Ling Tian’s words, it instead gradually melted.
Subsequently, she walked side by side with Duan Ling Tian to leave the Martial Practice Field.
Bang!
Duan Ling Tian and Feng Tian Wu had only just left when Ye Xiang was unable to support himself any longer and collapse on the ground, and his forehead broke out with cold sweat.
At that instant earlier, he felt death was that much closer.
No matter if it was the violet clothed young man or the red clothed young woman, their strengths far surpassed him and were beyond his reach.
Killing him was exceedingly easy.
Now, he felt as if he’d gotten back his life.
But when he recalled the humiliation he suffered earlier, his eyes still flashed with frightful cold lights. "So what if you’re stronger? Both of you are still juniors in the end."
"Humiliating me, the Second Young Master of the Ye Clan, in public, is equivalent to slapping the face of the Ye Clan… Let me see how both of you endure the flames of rage of my Ye Clan’s Patriarch!" Ye Xiang took a deep breath and seemed to have takes stimulants as he abruptly stood up and headed out of the Feng Clan Estate.
As for the corpse of his friend, Feng Hao, he disregarded it.
At this moment, Duan Ling Tian and Feng Tian Wu have arrived at the estate that Feng Wu Dao resided in.
"Big Brother Duan, why didn’t you ask me why I killed him?" The atmosphere that seemed to be peaceful all along the way was broken by Feng Tian Wu in the end.
"There’s no need to ask." Duan Ling Tian shook his head and smiled lightly. "Since you did it with your own two hands, then he naturally said something that he shouldn’t have… He surely deserved death!" His words showed unconditional support to Feng Tian Wu.
Feng Tian Wu’s finally revealed a wisp of a smile when she heard Duan Ling Tian’s words.
"Big Brother Duan, let’s return." Feng Tian Wu called out to Duan Ling Tian before the two of them returned into the estate.
After they returned, Duan Ling Tian noticed that King Yong was already gone.
"He said he’s returning first… Besides that, I told him that you’ll stay here with me for the next ten days," said Feng Wu Dao to Duan Ling Tian.
"Okay." Duan Ling Tian nodded and didn’t refuse.
"Besides that, he told me of the conflict between you and the wife of the Zhang Clan’s Patriarch… I’ve already asked Elder Kong to help you deal with this matter." Feng Wu Dao continued. "In the future, the wife of the Zhang Clan’s Patriarch won’t cause trouble for you again."
"Thank you, Uncle Feng." Duan Ling Tian hurriedly expressed his gratitude.
"Zhang Clan? Big Brother Duan, what happened?" Feng Tian Wu looked curiously at Duan Ling Tian.
"It’s nothing actually, it was only a small matter." Subsequently, Duan Ling Tian spoke of what he encountered in the Zhang Clan and the two times the Zhang Clan Patriarch’s wife sent people to kill him.
"What?! She wants to kill you?" Feng Tian Wu’s beautiful face flushed red with anger.
"Don’t worry, I’m fine." Duan Ling Tian shook his head, and then he looked at Feng Wu Dao. "Uncle Feng, besides her reliance of the Zhang Clan, that Zhang Clan Patriarch’s wife comes from a clan that seems to not be weak."
"Don’t worry." Feng Wu Dao had a calm expression, and his eyes revealed strong confidence. "From today onwards, the Zhang Clan Patriarch’s wife will be like a mouse that has seen a cat when she sees you."
Duan Ling Tian gasped in his head when he heard this.
At this moment, he truly realized how domineering Feng Wu Dao was.
Zhang Clan Estate.
On this day, an unexpected guest arrived at the Zhang Clan Estate.
"Senior Kong!" At the Zhang Clan Audience Hall, the Zhang Clan’s Patriarch respectfully greeted the old man.
As the Zhang Clan’s Patriarch, his status could be said to be extremely illustrious in the entire Darkhan Dynasty…
But he knew in his heart that he was nothing before this old man…
As the top Inscription Master of the Darkhan Dynasty, the old man had an extremely lofty status, and even the Feng Clan’s Patriarch had to be respectful and reverent when he met the old man, let alone him, the Patriarch of the Zhang Clan.
"Patriarch Zhang, now that I think about it, both of us haven’t met for many years." Elder Kong glanced indifferently at the Zhang Clan’s Patriarch.
"Yes." The Zhang Clan’s Patriarch hurriedly nodded, and he didn’t dare dally in the slightest.
Subsequently, he asked. "Senior Kong, may I know why you’ve come to my Zhang Clan this time?"
He believed that if it wasn’t for something, then it would be impossible for the old man to come to his Zhang Clan.
"First, call over your wife and second son," said Elder Kong.
Wife? Second son?
The expression of the Zhang Clan’s Patriarch became slightly grim when he heard this, and he said with slight fear, "Elder Kong, could it be that wife and unfilial son of mine have offended you? If they’ve really offended Elder Kong, I’ll surely not let them off lightly."
"They didn’t offend me." Elder Kong shook his head. "Just call them over."
The Zhang Clan’s Patriarch heaved a sigh of relief when he heard his wife didn’t cause any trouble, and he said respectfully, "Yes."
Subsequently, the Zhang Clan’s Patriarch instructed the servants outside the Audience Hall to call his wife over.
"Senior Kong." Meanwhile, he instead respectfully and reverently accompanied by the old man’s side, as he was deeply afraid of being neglectful to the old man.
"Patriarch Zhang, I heard that eldest son of yours that left the clan for a long time has returned… Moreover, his strength seems to be not bad. Congratulations," said Elder Kong to the Zhang Clan Patriarch.
"Thank you, Senior Kong." When the Zhang Clan’s Patriarch heard the old man mention his eldest son, he couldn’t help but have a slightly complicated expression, yet his expression was mostly filled with gratification.
"I’ve heard a little bit about your eldest son as well… This old fellow will overrate his abilities here and advise Patriarch Zhang. Children can take care of themselves, a union of clans by marriage is only a method that the weak use to socialize." Elder Kong spoke word by word.
"Senior Kong’s teaching is correct." The Zhang Clan Patriarch nodded, yet he couldn’t help but laugh bitterly and even mutter in his heart. "Do you think that everyone is your Feng Clan? Do you think our Zhang Clan has a formidable Inscription Master like you and is waiting for others to come curry favor with us?"
But he knew clearly that the marriage of his eldest son had already become inevitable now, and he was unable to interfere.
Even if he wanted to interfere now, he was unable.
Presently, he and even the entire Zhang Clan’s Achilles heel was held firmly in the hands of his eldest son.
Now, the Zhang Clan was waiting for that son of his to become eminent and bring honor to the clan in the Dynasty Martial Competition and even the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties.
"Patriarch, the Madam and Second Young Master have arrived." Suddenly, a respectful and reverent voice sounded out from outside the Audience Hall.
