Chapter 3761 - Spring View House

Chapter 3761 Spring View House

Duan Ling Tian felt relieved when he heard about the arrangements that Linghu Ren Jie made.

Over the next two days, he refined the lord-grade Divine Pills in peace. He sighed inwardly, not expecting that he would become a divine alchemist. In the past, he was unaware that extracting vitality energy would be one of the most important skills of a divine alchemist. Fortunately for him, extracting vitality energy was as easy as a stroll in the park due to the Divine Tree of Life in his Little World. It was all thanks to his Divine Tree of Life that he managed to refine the Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary Divine Pills into Limit Divine Pills during his second attempt.

At that time, Linghu Ren Jie had told Duan Ling Tian that even Lords of Gods would covet the Divine Pills he refined. When Duan Ling Tian heard that, he knew could use the Divine Pills he refined to return favors. He was very pleased with that since he disliked owing people favors. With the recent incident, without the Divine Pills, he would have been worried about the Linghu clan owing those other powerhouses favors because of him. He was relieved that he had the Divine Pills to repay the favors.

“A Divine Alchemist is a great profession in the Realms of Gods,” Duan Ling Tian muttered to himself with a sigh. Other people would have rolled their eyes at him if they were to hear these words. After all, it was not easy refining Limit Divine Pills at all.

In just a blink of an eye, two days had passed.

When the sun was almost setting, Duan Ling Tian sent a message to Hou Qing Ning.

“Are you done with your clan’s matters? Where should we meet for dinner?”

Duan Ling Tian knew that the finest restaurants in Linghu City belonged to the Linghu clan. If Hou Qing Ning was not held hostage, it was likely that they would have met in one of the Linghu clan’s restaurants. However, the person who was holding Hou Qing Ning hostage would definitely avoid restaurants owned by the Linghu clan.

When Duan Ling Tian did not receive a reply from Hou Qing Ning after waiting for quite a while, he speculated out loud, “The person who’s holding Hou Qing Ning hostage must have taken my Soul Pearl away from Hou Qing Ning…”

At the same time.

One could send messages using Soul Pearls through verbal and mental communications. One could also play messages out loud. It was similar to phones on earth being put on loudspeakers. When Duan Ling Tian sent the message, the black-clad man brought out Duan Ling Tian’s Soul Pearl and handed it to Hou Qing Ning as he said, “Tell him to meet you in the Second Emperor private room in Spring View House.”

Needless to say, Hou Qing Ning conveyed the black-clad man’s words to Duan Ling Tian as instructed.

When Duan Ling Tian received Hou Qing Ning’s reply, his lips curled up into a faint smile. As expected, the restaurant that was chosen did not belong to the Linghu clan.

Although Duan Ling Tian did not leave the Linghu clan’s estate at all previously, he had spoken frequently to Linghu Yun, Linghu Ren Jie’s fourth son. After Linghu Yun finished listening to Duan Ling Tian’s story, he had visited Duan Ling Tian multiple times. The duo got along very well and chatted extensively. For this reason, Duan Ling Tian knew about the matters in Linghu City such as the various restaurants in the city even though he did not leave the Linghu clan’s estate. Through his conversations with Linghu Yun, he learned that Spring View House was an ordinary restaurant owned by a king-rank force under the Linghu clan in Linghu City. Duan Ling Tian chuckled as he replied to Hou Qing Ning, “The Spring View House? Hou Qing Ning, are you worried about my expenses? The Spring View House isn’t the best restaurant in Linghu City. The Linghu clan owns the finest restaurants in the city.”

Hou Qing Ning was slightly taken aback by Duan Ling Tian’s reply. He looked at the black-clad man, waiting for further instructions. Moreover, since it was his first time in Linghu City, he naturally knew nothing about the restaurants in the city.

Nonetheless, the black-clad man was quick to act and taught Hou Qing Ning what to say. With that, Hou Qing Ning replied as he was told, “I know you’re a popular Revered Elder in the Linghu clan so the clan definitely won’t allow you to pay if we dine in one of their restaurants. To ensure you pay for the meal out of your own pocket, I deliberately chose a restaurant that’s not owned by the Linghu clan.”

Duan Ling Tian laughed. “Bast*rd, you’re really not going easy on me. Very well. I’ll see you in the Spring View House’s Second Emperor private room in an hour.”

After ending the conversation with Hou Qing Ning, Duan Ling Tian contacted Linghu Ren Jie. Linghu Ren Jie instructed him to meet Linghu Heng and Linghu Huan above the forest north of Linghu City.

When Duan Ling Tian arrived, he saw the two supreme elders had brought another seven people with them. One of them was someone he recognized. It was none other than Linghu Qing Ze, a Lord of Gods, whom he had met in King Descending City.

When Linghu Huan saw Duan Ling Tian, like an elder educating a junior, he said reproachfully, “Brat, how could you just leave the clan’s estate alone? Do you have a death wish?”

Duan Ling Tian could tell Linghu Huan was genuinely concerned about him. He smiled sheepishly and thought it was best to remain silent at this moment.

It seemed like Duan Ling Tian had made the right decision since Linghu Huan no longer continued on the topic. Instead, he gestured to Duan Ling Tian to come over before he introduced everyone, except for his twin brother, Linghu Heng, to Duan Ling Tian. Then, he glanced at the only old woman in the group and said, “I believe you know Elder Qing Ze. She told me both of you had met before.” “Elder Qing Ze,” Duan Ling Tian said with a smile. It was as though he had forgotten what had happened in the past.

On the contrary, Linghu Qing Ze felt rather awkward. After all, she did not expect the young man whom she had taught a lesson to in King Descending City would join their clan and become a Revered Elder. Moreover, he had also become a divine alchemist who could refine Limit Divine Pills. With all these, his status had surpassed hers in the clan.

In the end, Linghu Qing Ze forced a smile on her face and said, “Revered Elder Duan, I hope you can forgive me for offending you in the

past.”

“I’ve already forgotten about that,” Duan Ling Tian replied goodnaturedly. Linghu Huan continued his introductions. Apart from Linghu Qing Ze, there were another two powerful Lords of Gods; one of them was an ancestor of the Linghu clan and the other was a middle-aged man who was in the same generation as Linghu Heng and Linghu Huan. The middle-aged man’s name was Linghu Zhen Xing. His strength individually was stronger than Linghu Heng and Linghu Huan. He wore a long loose green robe and was tall and burly. His sword-shaped brows made him look rather dignified. “Elder Zhen Zing,” Duan Ling Tian said with a smile.

A rare smile appeared on Linghu Zhen Xing’s face. Although the smile looked awkward, his gaze was friendly.

The remaining four people were friends of Linghu Heng and Linghu Huan whom they had met in their early years. All of them were rudimentary Lords of Gods.

After the introductions, Duan Ling Tian told them the venue was Spring View House.

Linghu Zhen Xing brought the others and hid near the Spring View House while Linghu Heng and Linghu Huan secretly followed Duan Ling Tian to protect him. After all, they did not know the number of opponents they had to face.

After Linghu Zhen Xing and the others left, Duan Ling Tian waited for half an hour before he flew into Linghu City from the eastern side of the city. The eastern entrance of Linghu City was connected to one of the main entrances of the Linghu clan’s estate. Hence, he was able to enter with ease. After that, he exited from another main entrance, pretending he was just coming out from the Linghu clan’s estate.

Upon seeing this, Linghu Huan, who was secretly following Duan Ling Tian, said to his twin brother, Linghu Heng, through Voice Transmission, “He’s quite cautious.”

“Not only is he cautious, but he’s extraordinarily talented as well. His future is bright, and the sky’s the limit for him,” Linghu Heng said. Linghu Huan was slightly surprised by Linghu Heng’s words. It was his first time hearing Linghu Heng praising another person. However, after a moment, he thought it was only natural when he recalled Duan Ling Tian’s performance, innate talent, and comprehension skills. If Duan Ling Tian did not meet with any mishaps, let alone the Linghu clan, even the Flying Dragon Sect and other emperor-rank forces in the Eastern Ridge Mansion would be too small a stage for Duan Ling Tian in the future.

Duan Ling Tian had deliberately come out from the Linghu clan’s estate because he was worried that there might be spies waiting outside of the clan’s estate. It would raise suspicion if they saw him returning from outside the city. After all, he did not tell Hou Qing Ning he was not in the Linghu clan’s estate.

“We’ve arrived,” Linghu Huan said through Voice Transmission when Duan Ling Tian arrived at the entrance of Spring View House.

The business was booming in the Spring View House. The main hall was almost filled to the brim, and people were constantly going in and out of the restaurant. At a corner of the restaurant, a long line of people could be seen waiting for their turns to get seated.

“My lord, are you here for dinner?” a waiter asked Duan Ling Tian as he stepped forward. “My friend has already reserved the Second Emperor private room,” Duan Ling Tian said.

“May I know what name the room is reserved under?” the waiter asked respectfully.

The Second Emperor room was the most exclusive private room in Spring View House. It would cost ten years of the waiter’s salary to cover the minimum expense in the Spring View House’s Second Emperor private room.
