“Tian’er, please be careful! I know you need to rescue Ke’er and your daughter, but I don’t want any harm to come to you as well.” Once Li Rou found out the reason Duan Ling Tian was so eager to leave the Azure Cloud Mansion to head to the Upper Province, she no longer tried to dissuade him. She only reminded him to be careful.

“Mother, I know.” Duan Ling Tian nodded.

He had already bid farewell to his parents. Next, he, naturally, went to look for his fiancee, Li Fei.

“Go! Please be careful! I hope you’ll rescue Sister Ke’er and her daughter as soon as you can!” When Li Fei learned that Ke’er and her daughter were imprisoned in the Enforcement Hall and were in danger, horror dawned on her face. Not only that, but she even urged Duan Ling Tian to leave as soon as he could.

“I will.” After he hugged Li Fei and spent some time with her, Duan Ling Tian finally let go of her. He turned around without looking back at all. He did not dare to turn back. He was afraid he would feel unwilling to leave.

Although he had returned to the Azure Cloud Mansion for quite some time now, he was usually cultivating and rarely accompanied his wife and son due to the five-year pact. He felt like he was an incompetent husband and father.

After parting ways with Li Fei, Duan Ling Tian proceeded to look for Xiao Lan and Bi Yao.

“Y-You’re going to leave so soon?” After learning that Duan Ling Tian was going to leave, Xiao Lan and Bi Yao were shocked. A hint of longing appeared in their autumn eyes.

“I must go to the Fire Worship Sect as soon as possible and come up with a way to rescue Ke’er and our daughter. Otherwise, something might happen to them!” Duan Ling Tian said. His voice was filled with worries.

“That’s right. Jing Ru is not back yet?” After he said goodbye to Xiao Lan and Bi Yao, Duan Ling Tian suddenly remembered Jing Ru when he was about to leave.

Jing Ru was the manager of the large mansion he had bought in the Crimson Sky Kingdom’s Imperial City who had also followed his mother and father to the Azure Cloud Mansion.

Duan Ling Tian had been in Azure Cloud Mansion for so long, but until now, he did not see her at all. Similar to Xiao Lan and Bi Yao, she had gone out to train and experience life. However, she had gone on her own. Up until now, there was no news about her at all.

“No.” Xiao Lan and Bi Yao shook their heads.

“If she comes back, send my greetings to her. Alright, I’ll take my leave now.” Duan Ling Tian left as soon as he finished speaking.

Staring at Duan Ling Tian’s silhouette from afar, Xiao Lan and Bi Yao were in a daze.

It was only until Duan Ling Tian’s silhouette had completely disappeared from their sight that they returned to their senses. They could only smile wryly at each other.

“If he treats me like how he treats Ke’er, I’ll die without any regrets,” Xiao Lan said faintly.

“Me, too.” Upon hearing that, Bi Yao nodded in agreement.

Naturally, Duan Ling Tian did not hear the two women’s words.

After leaving Xiao Lan and Bi Yao’s residence, Duan Ling Tian went to the Azure Cloud Platform to look for Gu Li. From the beginning, he did not forget the promise he had made with Gu Li to go to the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land together.

The Azure Cloud Platform was the place where the most outstanding Azure Cloud Mansion’s disciples gathered.

If it was before, perhaps Duan Ling Tian might be interested in the Azure Cloud Platform. However, his current strength had far surpassed those Azure Cloud Mansion’s disciples on the Azure Cloud Platform. It was only natural he was not interested.

“Junior Brother Ling Tian!” Gu Li was surprised by Duan Ling Tian’s sudden appearance. “What are you doing here?”

There must be a reason for Duan Ling Tian to personally come here to look for him.

However, he could not guess what it was.

“Senior Brother Gu Li, prepare yourself. I’ll find you again in an hour. Let’s leave the Azure Cloud Mansion and head to the Upper Province! I have to say goodbye to a few more people. After that, I’ll return to look for you.” Duan Ling Tian did not beat around the bush. He quickly left without waiting for Gu Li’s reply.

He still needed to say goodbye to Bai Li Hong, Feng Wu Dao, and the others.

“I’ll see you in an hour in the Central Main Hall.” Gu Li was still shocked when Duan Ling Tian’s voice resonated in his ears.

“There seems to be something wrong with Junior Brother Ling Tian. It’s fine! I’ll find out later why he’s in such a rush to go to the Upper Province,” Gu Li muttered to himself, the frown on his face gradually easing away.

“Junior Brother, you’re leaving today?” Bai Li Hong was not the only one who found it strange. Even Feng Wu Dao and the others thought it was strange when they learned that Duan Ling Tian was leaving the Azure Cloud Mansion and heading to the Upper Province today.

In fact, when they were returning to the Azure Cloud Mansion, Duan Ling Tian had mentioned several times that he would only leave the Azure Cloud Mansion and head to the Upper Province after a short time.

However, currently, it seemed like he had forgotten what he had said.

“The situation is urgent.” Faced with the confused expressions of Bai Li Hong and the others, Duan Ling Tian explained with a bitter expression, “I just received information about Ke’er so I need to look for her as soon as possible in the Upper Province.”

Upon hearing his words, Bai Li Hong and the others finally understood.

After saying goodbye to Bai Li Hong and the others, about 30 minutes had gone by. Duan Ling Tian made his way to the Central Main Hall immediately. He discovered that Gu Li was already waiting for him.

“Junior Brother, did something happen that you’re in such a rush to head to the Upper Province?”

Something was not right!

Gu Li felt that Duan Ling Tian was in such a rush to leave because something had happened.

He soon obtained the answer from Duan Ling Tian.

Once he discovered the reason, Gu Li urged Duan Ling Tian, “Let’s go, Junior Brother Ling Tian!”

Then, Duan Ling Tian and Gu Li left the Azure Cloud Mansion together and made their way north.

The passage leading to the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land was located there.

Gu Li broke the silence during their journey and pointed in the distance before he said to Duan Ling Tian, “The Mountainshade Black Market’s headquarter’s estate is right there.”

Upon hearing that, Duan Ling Tian looked over as well. However, he only saw smoke in the distance.

Naturally, that was all Gu Li could see as well, but he roughly knew where the estate of the Mountainshade Black Market’s headquarter was located.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Suddenly, a deafening explosion resonated from the path ahead of Duan Ling Tian and Gu Li.

As they went closer, the sound became louder and louder.

“Is there a fight?” Duan Ling Tian and Gu Li exchanged glances. They were both surprised.

“Junior Brother Ling Tian, shall we take a detour or should we just ignore them and continue forward?” Gu Li looked at Duan Ling Tian and asked.

“Let’s take a detour. These people don’t seem weak.” Duan Ling Tian was anxious to go to the Upper Province. He wanted to avoid trouble if possible.

Based on the huge commotion ahead of them, it was enough for him to tell that both parties were quite strong.

With Duan Ling Tian’s current strength, he was certain the two people who were fighting were at the Exemplary Saint Stage or above. Not only that, but they were not ordinary Early Exemplary Saint Stage powerhouses as well.

“Sure!” Gu Li did not object to Duan Ling Tian’s decision of taking a detour. Currently, Duan Ling Tian was like his guide.

Just as Duan Ling Tian and Gu Li were about to take a detour, a burst of loud laughter resonated ahead of them. “Feng Bu Yi, did you think this day will come when you humiliated me previously?”

“Zhu Lu Qi, even if you kill me today, it’ll be hard for you to escape death as well! Those who cultivate the Devouring Dark Devil Technique are destined to have a bad ending!” Another voice sounded.

However, compared to the former’s voice, the latter’s voice sounded a little dispirited.

When Duan Ling Tian and Gu Li heard the voices, they were dumbfounded. They could see the shock in each other’s eyes.

“It’s Zhu Lu Qi!” Gu Li gasped.

“It’s indeed Palace Master Zhu!” Duan Ling Tian nodded. He could also tell the voice belonged to the former Palace Master of Heaven Palace in Mystical Sky Mansion, Zhu Lu Qi.

Based on his words, it was obvious he was fighting with Feng Bu Yi. Moreover, based on Feng Bu Yi’s words, it seemed like he was no longer a match for Zhu Lu Qi.

“Let’s go!” Although Duan Ling Tian knew they people ahead of them, he still planned to take a detour.

After all, Zhu Lu Qi was no longer the Palace Master of Heaven Palace in the Mystical Sky Mansion. Who knew whether he would attack him and Gu Li since he had cultivated the Devouring Dark Devil Technique.

He was not sure how powerful Zhu Lu Qi was currently so he did not dare to take this risk.

“Alright.” Gu Li had the same thought with Duan Ling Tian. For this reason, he immediately agreed to take a detour.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

More loud explosions resonated in the air. They were deafeningly loud.

Suddenly, it came to a halt.

“It has ended,” Gu Li remarked.

“Yeah.” Duan Ling Tian nodded.

“Based on Zhu Lu Qi and Feng Bu Yi’s words earlier, Feng Bu Yi doesn’t seem to be a match for Zhu Lu Qi!” Gu Li added again.

“Do you think Palace Master Zhu would appear and fight with Feng Bu Yi if he isn’t sure he can defeat Feng Bu Yi?” Duan Ling Tian said as he shook his head. He felt Gu Li had just stated something obvious.

Upon hearing that, Gu Li also realized his words were redundant. He only laughed awkwardly.

Whoosh!

Duan Ling Tian who had sharp hearing suddenly heard the faint sound of wind whistling as it turned louder and louder.

“Damn it!” Horror dawned on Duan Ling Tian.

At this moment, Gu Li also noticed then noise coming from behind them. He was horrified.

“Duan Ling Tian? Gu Li?” A gust of wind seemed to have blown past Duan Ling Tian and Gu Li.

In just an instant, a figure suddenly appeared in front of them. It was an old man.

This old man was no stranger to Duan Ling Tian and Gu Li. He was none other than Zhu Lu Qi, the former Palace Master of the Heaven Palace in Mystical Sky Mansion!

Currently, he was staring at them expressionlessly as he blocked their path.

“Palace Master Zhu, it has been a long time.” Unlike Gu Li who still had a horrified expression on his face, Duan Ling Tian’s expression had returned to normal. Moreover, he even took the initiative to greet Zhu Lu Qi.
