"Favor?"
Long Qing's conflicting words made Duan Lingtian couldn't help but be startled. After a moment of recovery, he smiled and said: "Sect Master, please speak."
"As long as I, Duan Lingtian, can do my best, I will never refuse."
Although he and Long Qingchong had not met a few times, he still remembered the care the sect leader had given him before meeting him for the first time.
Now, if the other person wants a favor, you might as well listen.
If it's within your means, it doesn't matter if you give it to the other party.
"Please follow me to a place first."
Long Qingchong smiled and said: "When we get there, I will tell you what favor I want from you... Of course, don't be embarrassed."
"If you don't want to, I won't force you."
I don't know if he knew that Duan Lingtian was different now, but Long Qingchong's tone when he spoke to Duan Lingtian was obviously much kinder than when they first met.
Of course, that's not to say that he was rude when he first met Duan Lingtian. He was also kind then, but not as kind as he is now.
"good."
Duan Lingtian nodded, and then rushed away with Long Qing. As for the two people from Chunyang Sect, he also sent a message and said hello, saying that he would go over and leave Tianlong Sect with them later.
Immediately afterwards, Duan Lingtian followed Long Qingchong to the place where he had seen Long Qingchong before.
It is also the residence and training place of Long Qingchong.
Here, Duan Lingtian saw a middle-aged man. The middle-aged man was standing in the courtyard waiting. Although his face was calm, his eyes were obviously a little uneasy.
"Sect Master, who is this?"
Duan Lingtian asked in confusion after following Long Qingchong to the ground.
Could the favor that Long Qingchong told him have to do with this person?
"He is Xue Mingzhi."
Long Qingchong said bluntly.
When Long Qingchong said the other party's name, Duan Lingtian's expression suddenly changed, and his pupils shrank slightly.
When Kuang Tianzheng, the inner sect elder of the Ten Thousand Demons Sect, killed him, he suspected that it was Xue Mingzhi who forced him to attack him.
As well as the two dead soldiers of the middle-ranking God Emperor, he suspected that it might be Xue Mingzhi's handiwork.
"It turns out to be Deputy Sect Master Xue."
Now, Duan Lingtian probably guessed what kind of favor Long Qingchong was talking about. In all likelihood, he wanted to resolve the conflict between him and Xue Mingzhi.
"Master Duan."
Hearing the sarcasm in Duan Lingtian's tone, Xue Mingzhi's heart trembled, and then an awkward smile appeared on his face, and he called Duan Lingtian respectfully.
"Say it."
At this time, Long Qingchong spoke, looked at Xue Mingzhi, and said lightly.
Hearing this, Xue Mingzhi took a deep breath, looked at Duan Lingtian and said, "Young Master Duan, the conflict between you and me is all because of my son-in-law."
After the words fell, Xue Mingzhi raised his hand. In his hand, there was an extra human head. Judging from the blood stains on the severed part of the head and neck, it was obvious that the person had just died.
This is the head of a handsome young man.
"He is my son-in-law, Zhong Can."
At first, Duan Lingtian was still frowning, but when he heard Xue Mingzhi say this, his expression could not help but change subtly.
Although it was his first time to meet Xue Mingzhi, he also knew that Xue Mingzhi only had one daughter, and under Aiwujiwu, he took great care of his only son-in-law, Zhong Can, who was from the Ten Thousand Demons Sect.
"I killed him with my own hands without telling my daughter, probably because I learned that the appearance of the two dead soldiers of the middle-level God Emperor was related to him."
Xue Mingzhi looked at Duan Lingtian, his face straightened, and he said righteously: "Of course, he does not have enough wealth to buy the lives of two dead soldiers of the middle-ranking God Emperor."
"Behind this is the Ten Thousand Demons Sect."
"The Ten Thousand Demons Sect holds a grudge against you because of Kuang Tianzheng's death."
"However, some time ago, I went to the Ten Thousand Demons Sect on the order of the sect leader and slaughtered all the senior officials of the Ten Thousand Demons Sect who were related to this matter."
"And I personally killed my son-in-law Zhong Can."
"This is also my atonement to Mr. Duan."
Speaking of which, Xue Mingzhi, the deputy sect leader of the Tianlong Sect, knelt down to Duan Lingtian, lay on the ground, and kowtowed three times, ignoring the blood flowing from his forehead.
"Atonement?"
Duan Lingtian took a deep look at Xue Mingzhi, "Deputy Sect Master Xue, what are you guilty of?"
Hearing this, Xue Mingzhi took a deep breath and said, "Kuang Tian is risking his life to attack Mr. Duan in the sect. To a certain extent, it is with my instruction."
Hearing Xue Mingzhi's words, Duan Lingtian looked calm, because he had already guessed it, otherwise Kuang Tianzheng would not have been able to attack him seemingly within the sect.
Moreover, the two White Dragon elders from the Ten Thousand Demons Sect were unable to coerce Kuang Tianzheng.
Not to mention that they didn't have any deep hatred for him, Duan Lingtian, but even if Kuang Tianzheng had Xue Mingzhi's relationship, it was impossible for the two Bailong elders to coerce Kuang Tianzheng.
Therefore, it can only be Xue Mingzhi.
"It seems that Deputy Sect Leader Xue really wants me to die."
Duan Lingtian smiled.
"Young Master Duan, I did that all because my son-in-law is a disciple of Kuang Tian's main sect. I'm afraid that you will grow up in the future and hold a grudge against me. When you deal with my son-in-law, you will also deal with me."
Xue Mingzhi said repeatedly: "This matter is because I lost my head."
"So, I have killed Zhong Can now, and with his death, I will sever all ties and contacts with the Ten Thousand Demons Sect and Kuang Tianzheng... In this way, you and I, Mr. Duan, will no longer have any conflicts. "
Xue Mingzhi said.
"Of course, if Mr. Duan insists on wanting me to die, I won't say anything... I just hope that Mr. Duan will let my daughter go. It's entirely because of Zhong Can that she became confused and wanted to deal with you."
When Xue Mingzhi mentioned his daughter, his eyes softened significantly.
"If Duan Shaoru lets me die, after I die, the sect leader will issue an order saying that Zhong Can and I participated in the murder of you Duan Lingtian, execute us, and then expel her from the sect."
Xue Mingzhi said.
Duan Lingtian frowned slightly when he heard this, and then looked at Long Qingchong, the leader of the Tianlong Sect on the side, "Sect Master, the favor you told me about before...is his life?"
"yes."
Long Qing nodded quickly, "Xue Mingzhi's master, my uncle, saved my life in the past. If possible, I also hope to save his life, which can be regarded as repaying the life-saving grace of my uncle." ."
"Of course, if you insist on wanting him to die, I won't blame you."
"I just hope that you can let his daughter go as he said."
"I can guarantee that his daughter will never retaliate against you... Of course, if she takes the initiative to retaliate against you, she will die in the future and she will deserve it."
"This is Xue Mingzhi, if you spare his life today, I can also guarantee that he will never target you again in the future, otherwise I will kill him myself!"
Long Qingchong said all his thoughts in one breath.
When Duan Lingtian heard this, his eyes flickered.
At this moment, Xue Mingzhi spoke again, "Master Duan, there is one more thing."
"In the past, I appeared during the Qianlong Competition and threatened Mr. Duan with words and messages."
As soon as Xue Mingzhi said these words, Duan Lingtian's expression suddenly changed, "Is it you?!"
The threat from the past still left a deep impression on him.
However, Linghu Renjie was fine later, so he just thought it was a prank... But now, hearing what Xue Mingzhi said, he knew it was not a prank.
But, since it's not a prank, why is Linghu Renjie still alive and well now?
Linghu Renjie's soul bead is still lying in his ring, safe and sound.
"it's me."
Xue Mingzhi smiled bitterly, "At that time, it was my daughter who was also bewitched by Zhong Can, saying that if you got the Tonghuang Divine Pill, you would soon be able to enter the realm of the Divine Emperor. That would not be a good thing for us."
When Duan Lingtian heard this, his expression softened a little, "It's nothing. After all, you didn't take any action, you just threatened me casually."
In Duan Lingtian's opinion, with Xue Mingzhi's ability, it would be easy to kill Linghu Renjie.
But now that Linghu Renjie is fine, it means that he only threatened him and did not actually take action.
"No."
However, what Duan Lingtian didn't expect was that Xue Mingzhi shook his head, "I took action on this matter."
"What?!"
Duan Lingtian's expression, which had just calmed down, changed drastically again, and his gaze towards Xue Mingzhi also became sharp in an instant.
Deal with him, he can understand.
But if he touches other unrelated people, he can't understand it.
At least, he felt that if it were his enemy, he would not touch his friend who had no conflicts or hatred with him.
If anything, he could understand what Xue Mingzhi said before.
Even if it's against him.
But now, what Xue Mingzhi said touched his bottom line.
At the same time, Long Qingchong, who was standing aside, also sighed. In fact, he had told Xue Mingzhi about this matter, so he didn't need to say it because it might completely anger Duan Lingtian.
Of course, if Duan Lingtian knew the truth in the future and wanted to settle accounts, Xue Mingzhi would definitely still be in trouble.
"Why didn't you succeed later?"
Duan Lingtian asked in a deep voice while the anger in his heart rose.
Hearing this, Xue Mingzhi took a deep breath and said, "It's because a powerful God Emperor intervened."
"The powerful God Emperor?!"
Hearing Xue Mingzhi's words, Duan Lingtian frowned. After a moment, a voice flashed through his mind at the right time, remembering the powerful God Emperor who appeared in Tianlong Sect not long after he entered Tianlong Sect.
Moreover, the opponent is obviously not an ordinary powerful God Emperor.
The other party can force Tianlong Sect to withdraw the sect-protecting formation. Even Chunyang Sect Jingxu Elder Zhen Pingfan may not be able to do this with his strength alone without relying on his identity and background.
"yes."
Xue Mingzhi nodded, and then told the whole story: "Back then, I made an agreement with a Black Dragon elder. If he kills Linghu Renjie, I will give him a reward."
"Who knew that he died in the Linghu family and was killed by the powerful God Emperor."
"Later, the powerful God Emperor came to Tianlong Sect and taught her a lesson... However, from what she said, she didn't seem to care about me dealing with you. She just didn't allow me to deal with Linghu Renjie and the Linghu family."
"Because of this, out of shame and anger, I also poured out part of my anger on you."
Having said this, a look of embarrassment flashed across Xue Mingzhi's face.
"Is this powerful God Emperor Linghu Renfeng?"
Duan Lingtian's eyes flashed and he asked bluntly.
