However, when the three figures had gotten closer, Li An noticed the other two figures were being carried by the other figure. Only one of them had a cultivation base at the Quintessential Saint Stage. Li An instantly turned his attention to this person and discovered this person resembled Duan Ling Tian before he disguised himself by about 60% to 70%. He knew what Duan Ling Tian truly looked like since he had managed to obtain a portrait of Duan Ling Tian from the Watcher he had interrogated.
“This must be Mansion Master Duan Ru Feng of the Azure Cloud Mansion!” Li An figured out the identity of this person. The Mansion Master of the Azure Cloud Mansion was Duan Ling Tian’s father.
Soon after, Duan Ru Feng brought an old man and a sturdy-looking middle-aged man wearing a black armor in front of the Black Armored Guards and shielded them.
“Lord Mansion Master!”
“Lord Mansion Master!”
Following the lead of Centurion Tong Zhong, the group of Black Armored Guards bowed respectfully to Duan Ru Feng when he appeared. Some of the Black Armored Guards who had never seen Duan Ru Feng before became excited. They did not feel regretful if they had to die since they were able to see the Mansion Master of the Azure Cloud Mansion!
In the hearts of every Black Armored Guards, Mansion Master Duan Ru Feng of the Azure Cloud Mansion was someone with a lofty position and they respected him deeply. He was even more important to them than their own lives!
When they saw Duan Ru Feng, all of them were suddenly infused with courage. They all stood straight, exuding an imposing aura. They looked magnificent as they all gathered together.
Upon seeing this, Li An and his men could not help but feel shocked.
Although these guards dressed in black armors were weak, their imposing aura when they joined forces was not similar to powerhouses below the Quintessential Saint Stage.
“Elder Rong!”
“Elder Rong!”
“Lord Commander!”
“Lord Commander!”
After the group of Black Armored Guards greeted Mansion Master Duan Ru Feng of the Azure Cloud Mansion, they instantly turned to the old man and sturdy-looking middle-aged man standing next to Duan Ru Feng and greeted them respectfully as well.
The old man standing next to Duan Ru Feng was none other than Rong Yuan! The sturdy-looking middle-aged man wearing black armor, on the other hand, was the current Commander of the Black Armored Army who was at the Exemplary Saint Stage.
Naturally, those who were at the Exemplary Saint Stage in the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land could be considered as elite powerhouses. However, they were nothing in front of Li An and his men! Even the weakest person among Li An’s men was at the First Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. Such a powerhouse only needed to lift his finger to defeat someone at the peak of the Exemplary Saint Stage, let alone an ordinary Exemplary Saint Stage Martial Cultivator!
The robe on Duan Ru Feng fluttered. A furious and determined expression could be seen on his face as he glared at Li An and his men. He asked in a deep voice, “Who are you? Why did you kill my Azure Cloud Mansion’s people?”
Since Duan Ru Feng had just arrived, he did not know where these people came from. At this moment, he was thoroughly angered!
Ever since Duan Ru Feng became the Mansion Master of the Azure Cloud Mansion, nobody from the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land had dared to come and cause trouble in the Azure Cloud Mansion.
However, today, people had slaughtered their way into the Azure Cloud Mansion and killed hundreds of Black Armored Guards. This was akin to slapping the face of the Mansion Master of the Azure Cloud Mansion.
“You’re Duan Ru Feng? The Mansion Master of the Azure Cloud Mansion?” Li An asked indifferently, he did not deign to answer Duan Ru Feng’s question. His tone was condescending as though he was speaking to someone inferior to him.
As soon as Li An finished speaking, the Black Armored Army’s Commander standing next to Duan Ru Feng took two steps forward and glared at Li An. He said angrily, “How dare you address our Mansion Master directly without using his title!”
Duan Ru Feng was also deeply respected by the Commander of the Black Armored Army! If Duan Ru Feng did not rescue him previously, he would have died! For Duan Ru Feng’s sake, he did not fear shedding blood or losing his life!
At this moment, how could he possibly tolerate the person he respected the most to be treated so callously?
“Lord Commander!” When the Black Armored Army’s Commander took two steps forward and spoke to Li An, Tong Zhong who was standing behind him seemed to have recalled something as he called out in panic. There was a horrified expression on his face.
As soon as Tong Zhong finished speaking...
Swish!
The sound of saber whistling in the air appeared and disappeared just as quickly.
In the next moment, everyone was greeted by the sight of the Black Armored Army’s Commander being beheaded.
Fresh blood gushed out from his decapitated body like a fountain. The blood that spurted out from his body looked dazzling like red roses.
“Hurmph! Just a mere Exemplary Saint Stage ant like you isn’t worthy to act so unruly in front of Elder Li An!” An old man standing behind Li An said disdainfully.
This was the person who had decapitated the Azure Cloud Mansion’s Commander of the Black Armored Army!
“Elder Wang!” Duan Ru Feng regained his senses first. Horror dawned on him as he saw the Black Armored Army’s Commander who had been decapitated. His eyes became bloodshot as an oppressive Devil Qi surged out of his body.
Snap!
As a crisp sound resonated, the hairband on Duan Ru Feng’s head snapped. His long black hair fluttered even though there was no breeze. They looked like snakes wriggling and writhing in the air.
Currently, Duan Ru Feng’s entire body was shrouded by Devil Qi. The aura around his body continued to rise and intensify.
“The Intermediate Quintessential Saint Stage... The Mastery Quintessential Saint Stage... The peak of the Quintessential Saint Stage?!” Li An could not help but furrow his eyebrows when he sensed the energy from Duan Ru Feng.
Earlier, Li An had determined Duan Ru Feng’s cultivation base was merely at the Intermediate Quintessential Saint Stage. However, currently, his cultivation base had jumped past the Mastery Quintessential Saint Stage and entered the peak of the Quintessential Saint Stage before it finally stopped.
Although it did not enter the Saint Celestial Stage, it still frightened Li An quite a bit.
‘Duan Ling Tian, Duan Ru Feng’s son, knows a technique to conceal his cultivation base...’ Li An suddenly recalled this. He was no longer shocked. He merely thought Duan Ru Feng had concealed his cultivation base earlier and had only revealed his true cultivation base now. It did not occur to him that Duan Ru Feng had only just risen his cultivation base! His cultivation base was indeed at the Intermediate Quintessential Saint Stage before this.
“Commander Wang!” Rong Yuan regained his senses after Duan Ru Feng. When he saw the Black Armored Army’s Commander who had been beheaded, his eyes turned bloodshot as well.
“Lord Commander!”
“Lord Commander!”
At the same time, the group of Black Armored Guards, including Tong Zhong, cried out in sorrow as well.
Then, they shifted their gaze away from the Black Armored Army’s Commander to look at Li An and his men. Their eyes were burning with hatred! If looks could kill, Li An and his men would have died.
“All of you are from the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land?” Duan Ru Feng asked as he looked Li An coldly. His body was completely shrouded in Devil Qi. His tone sounded so sinister it seemed as though it came from hell. It sent chills running up the spines of those who heard it.
Rong Yuan who was standing next to Duan Ru Feng could not help but shudder as well. At this moment, he could see the intense anger of his Lord Mansion Master!
“That’s right!” Li An was not afraid when faced with Duan Ru Feng’s cold gaze. Instead, he smirked. “Duan Ru Feng, I don’t mind telling you this. I’m Li An, a Silver Flame Elder from the Fire Worship Sect, one of the three great sects in the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land!”
Fire Worship Sect!
Silver Flame Elder!
Upon hearing Li An’s words, Duan Ru Feng narrowed his eyes as his eyes flashed coldly.
The Fire Worship Sect was the sect that was holding his daughter-in-law and granddaughter captive!
The person standing in front of him was an elder of that sect?
Swoosh!
Horror dawned on Rong Yuan’s face. He did not expect the person leading this group of men was an elder from the Fire Worship Sect, one of the three great sects in the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land!
Unlike Duan Ru Feng and Li An, most of the Black Armored Guards had never heard of the Fire Worship Sect so they remained calm. Naturally, there were some Black Armored Guards who had heard of the Fire Worship Sect. Most of these Black Armored Guards were Decurions and Centurions, including Tong Zhong.
Upon hearing Li An’s words, they widened their eyes in horror.
This old man called Li An was actually an elder from the Fire Worship Sect?
Even then, they had no intention of retreating even after learning about his identity. Instead, they straightened their backs. It was as though they were all prepared to die for the Mansion Master and the Azure Cloud Mansion.
“I came here to bring Duan Ling Tian’s family and friends to the Upper Province. I plan to use all of you as bait to lure Duan Ling Tian out of the Fire Worship Sect!” Li An spoke again, “If you want to blame someone, blame your son for this. He’s the one who brought disaster to the Azure Cloud Mansion. He’s the cause of the downfall of the Azure Cloud Mansion!” Li An’s tone turned colder as he spoke. It felt as though the temperature in the surroundings had dropped by a few degrees.
