The War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens
#18 Chapter 18



Half a month later, in the spacious courtyard on the Li family's land.


An old man leaned against the deck chair with his eyes closed comfortably, enjoying the feeling of the sun shining down on his skin.


Behind him stood a young man with bright eyes, giving him a massage.


"Grand Elder, I'll give you another massage half a month from now. At that time, your hidden wound will be completely healed."


The young man massaged as he said this.


"Son, if it wasn't for you, this old bone bag would have to suffer for who knows how long."


The old man sighed.


In recent years, he has almost gone crazy due to the torture caused by his hidden injuries.


Being able to eradicate his injuries was the best news he had ever gotten.


"Don't mention it, Grand Elder. I'm just doing what you pay me to do."


The young man shook his head while smiling lightly.


Massaging the old man for a thousand silver each time was a very profitable business for him.


"I heard you refused the Patriarch's favor."


The old man suddenly asked.


"Yes, I don't need money right now, and everything I need can be bought from the market. There is no reason for me to waste family resources; those resources would be better used on someone who needs them more than me . "


The young man smiled.


"Son, you make it sound like you're very kind, but why didn't I realize that you were so enlightened? The real reason you refused was because you didn't want to owe the Li family, or should I say you didn't want to be tied up with the Li family, right? "


With just one comment, the old man unraveled the young man's true thoughts.


The young man smiled embarrassedly. As expected, wisdom and experience come with age.


Exactly as the old man had said; he did not want to bond with the Li family. He would leave sooner or later to explore the vast world.


The Li Family and the Fresh Breeze City were just a starting point for him.


"Yes!"


The young man stopped massaging.


The old man opened his eyes and spat out a mouthful of foul air, then he handed the stack of silver money to the young man who was sweating profusely.


"Grand Elder, I'll leave now. See you in half a month."


The young man laughed jokingly.


After the young man left, the old man muttered to himself.


"I hope you'll be able to surprise me two and a half months from now."


Duan Ling Tian went straight home after leaving Elder Li Huo's residence.


When he entered the courtyard, he saw a gentle and graceful figure quickly drawing and sheathing his sword over and over again, repeating endlessly….


It was as if he did not realize what exhaustion was.


The young girl was dripping with sweat and biting her pink lips. His clear eyes, which were as clear as water, were filled with a sense of resolution!


Duan Ling Tian felt a jolt in his heartstrings as he watched her.


"To Er, sword cultivation seeks to follow the heart and not overdo it. Too much self-imposing will only cause more harm than good."


He softly said as he walked forward and grabbed the drawing arm of the young girl.


"Young master, Ke Er wants to master the Art of Sword Drawing as soon as possible, because only then will Ke Er be able to protect the young master, help the young master beat up the bad guys, because only then will Ke Er be able to protect the young master, and save the young master from being bullied by the bad guys. "


The young girl had a reddened face and was panting as she solemnly said this.


"Dumb girl, get some rest."


Duan Ling Tian's heart was warm as he gently touched the young girl's soft hair.


The young girl nodded. He looked soft like a kitten.


Nine Dragons War Sovereign Technique, Snake Shape Spirit!


That night, the young man sat inside the bathtub while greedily absorbing the Seven Treasures of Tempering Liquid inside….


When he finished absorbing the medicinal liquid, his life blood strengthened and the metamorphosis of his body became extremely critical.


He walked out of the bath and put on some clothes.


"Tomorrow morning I will definitely be able to break through to the fourth level of the Tempering Body stage …. But, if I want to kill Fang Qiang with certainty two and a half months from now, I need to break through to the seventh level at a minimum. Improving cultivation is getting harder along with increasing levels, so I will definitely not be able to reach the seventh level of the Tempering Body stage within two and a half months of just relying on the Seven Tempering Body Fluids. it was time to pick up some stuff from the market. "


The young man's eyes flickered as he muttered to himself.


On the morning of the next day, when the sun had yet to rise, the young man woke up and poured some of the Seven Treasures Tempering Liquid into the bathtub before starting to cultivate.


After a night of rest, the medicinal properties that fused into his body during the medicinal bath last night were finally fully absorbed by him.


While circulating the Nine Dragons War Sovereign Technique Spirit Snake Form, the young man sat inside the bathtub with his eyes closed, greedily absorbing the medicinal liquid.


After an unknown amount of time.


When dawn comes, the morning sunlight shines on the earth. After passing through the curtains, a small ray of sunlight gently shone on the young man. That was when he slowly opened his eyes.


Paladin


The young man stood up and casually stretched his body. His bones emitted a clear and melodious sound as they rubbed….


Suddenly, a smile appeared on the young man's face.


"I finally broke through."


He raised his palm upwards and slowly clenched it into a fist.


Sensing the explosive power within his body, the smile on the young man's face became wider.


"Sliced as I expected; while an ordinary level four Tempering Body martial artist would gain two hundred pounds of strength, I gained a full three hundred pounds!


After putting on his clothes, the young man pushed open the door, walked out, and enjoyed bathing in the sun.


Whooshing sound! Clangs! Whooshing sound! Clangs! Whooshing sound! Clangs!


……


A clear and melodious sword sound was drawn and enveloped into his ears.


It was only at that moment that Duan Ling Tian noticed that Ke Er had been seriously cultivating the Sword Picture Art since the early hours of the morning.


The young girl chose to cultivate deep in the corner of the courtyard so that she could avoid the beautiful dreams of Duan Ling Tian and her mother.


If he did not come out of his room, he would definitely not be able to hear these voices.


Duan Ling Tian sighed as he understood that Ke Er had trouble forgetting the matter he was injured yesterday.


He had been cultivating desperately in these past few days. Not only had his cultivation stepped into the third level of the Tempering Body stage, but he had even become proficient in the basics of the Sword Drawing Art.


It could be said that all Ke Er did was for him.


"Ke Er, stop cultivating for now and accompany me to the market."


Duan Ling Tian lightly smiled as he walked over.


"Young master, I'll prepare breakfast."


The young girl took her sword. Looking tall and graceful, her cheeks, which were without make up, were slightly flushed.


"It's okay, let's eat outside."


"Then I will prepare some for Madam …."


"Don't worry about that; my mom can make her own breakfast. Let's go."


Duan Ling Tian grabbed the young girl's hand. On the way out, he did not forget to look towards his mother's room to shout.


"Mom, I'll take Ke Er out. Take care of your breakfast."


After Duan Ling Tian and Ke Er left.


"Is this considered forgetting a mother after getting a wife?"


The woman shook her head and the corner of her mouth formed a smile.


"Boss, boss, wait for me .. wait for me!"


As the couple walked out of the Li family land, a voice combined with heavy breathing sounded from behind them.


A little fatty with fat stuck to his body stopped in front of them, blocking their path as he bowed breathlessly.


"Did you call me?"


Duan Ling Tian turned around and looked back, but paid no attention to anyone else.


The little fatty was somewhat familiar, but he could not remember who he was. Could he be the old Duan Ling Tian's errand boy?


But old Duan Ling Tian was sickly; was anyone really willing to be his henchman?


"Boss, of course you. You are my idol."


The little fatty nodded his head like a chick pecking at grain. The fat on his face was shaking.


"I don't know you."


Furrowing his brows, Duan Ling Tian held the young girl's hand and continued forward.


"Boss, it's my fault for pulling your pants when we were kids, but you shouldn't be upset, right? One day, when you crippled Li Jie, it really helped me vent some hatred, and also, Boss, you crippled her and nothing happened to you. You are absolutely amazing! "


The little fatty happily followed, his mouth not stopping.


Pull my pants?


Hearing what the fatty little one said, a faint image appeared on Duan Ling Tian's head.


It was one of the memories of old Duan Ling Tian.


In memory, a group of five or six-year-old children were playing ….


Suddenly, a hint of fat slipped behind him and pulled his pants, causing all the children to start laughing, then he cried from complaints.


"You're Li Xuan?"


Duan Ling Tian finally remembered.


This fatty was the only son of Fifth Elder Li Ting. He had left Fresh Breeze Town with his grandfather at an early age but had suddenly returned.


"Boss, you finally remember me."


The fat little guy's eyes glowed brightly.


"When did you come back? Why are you calling me Boss?"


Asked Duan Ling Tian.


In his memories, old Duan Ling Tian did not come into frequent contact with the fatty little guy, let alone taking him as a lackey.


"I've been back for two months. Since you helped me teach Li Jie a lesson and since you are so tough, I decided to make you my boss. Boss, from now on I am one of your people, so you should take good care of me! "


The fatty little guy laughed, winking his little eyes.


After hearing the explanation from the fatty, Duan Ling Tian learned that after returning, the little fatty was at odds with Li Jie's brother Li Xin. But since Li Xin was not his opponent, he brought his brother, Li Jie, to beat him up.


"I crippled Li Jie for my own reasons; I didn't try to help you …. Besides, you're not one of my people, and I have no intention of becoming your boss, so stop bothering me!"


Duan Ling Tian said indifferently in a cold voice. He held the young girl's hand and walked away without turning around.


Being sold by a brother in his previous life taught him an important lesson: he would never take another brother for no good reason, because he did not want any time bomb on his side.


A thief from inside is hard to guard!


The little fatty did not expect Duan Ling Tian to become hostile so suddenly, so he was stunned on the spot and watched the couple slowly move further and further away.


Behind his fat face was a pair of eyes filled with grievances.
