The War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

#254 Xia Guang's Background

The culprit, Ma Qin.

Duan Ling Tian could imagine that if not for him having Xiong Quan by his side, then today, he and the two girls by his side would definitely die.

As far as Duan Ling Tian was concerned, no matter how compensated the Ma Clan …. Ma Qin must die!

And at almost the same moment when Ma Qin was begging for mercy, a blue shadow flashed past him with wind-like speed, as if it was a ghost.

Bang out!

The blue-clothed old man, one of the Supreme Elders of the Ma Clan, attacked furiously, blowing Ma Qin to death with a single palm strike.

The blue-clothed old man looked at Duan Ling Tian and slowly said, “Even if the guest doesn't say anything, Our Ma Clan will not allow people who bring disgrace to clans like this to continue living.”

“Lalu …. Let's talk about compensation.” The corner of Duan Ling Tian's mouth formed a smile, and his gaze swept over the figures of the four old men, causing the old man to feel depressed and helpless.

After all was said and done, their Ma Clan Auction House was indeed wrong!

“Guests, please talk.” Hu Jun took a deep breath. He had already made mental preparations to pay a large sum of compensation.

“10 million gold,” Duan Ling Tian said slowly, with a carefree expression as if 10 million gold was nothing in his eyes.

Hu Jun and the other old man were even stunned.

They never imagined that the purple-clothed young man before them would demand such an exorbitant price!

“Tamu... This 10 million gold, right also..” Hu Jun is in a difficult situation, even for their Ma Clan, 10 million gold is not a small amount.

If they took so much gold, their Ma Clan would definitely be extremely weak!

“What? Think it's too much?” Duan Ling Tian calmly glanced at Hu Jun, “Don't forget that today's incident was caused by your Ma Clan... 10 million gold, send it to the Flowing Cloud Inn tonight. If not, bear the consequences!”

After he finished, Duan Ling Tian did not notice the four old men with flushed faces and immediately left.

This time, Duan Ling Tian's group left the Auction House of the Ma Clan through the front door.

It was now late at night, and the alley at the door of the Ma Clan Auction House was already quiet. Only occasionally are some hikers rarely seen.

The Flowing Cloud Inn was not far from the front. When Duan Ling Tian walked into the auction house from the previous restaurant, he saw this inn.

Their group entered the inn.

And at this time, the audience hall of the Ma Clan Estate was brightly lit by the lanterns.

Four old men and a middle-aged man stood together.

At this moment, the middle-aged man's face was extremely unsightly. “Ma Qin it really caused such a disaster …. He deserves to die!”

“Ma Qin deserves to die. But Patriarch, that purple-clothed young man asked for 10 million gold. That's really outrageous. Are we really going to give it to him?” The voice of the yellow-clothed old man was low, and there seemed to be a hint of anger mixed within it.

“Highest Elder, if we don't give him 10 million gold, do you have any other way to solve this problem?” The middle-aged man, the Patriarch of the Ma Clan, had an extremely unsightly expression as he spoke.

The yellow-clothed old man fell silent.

Does he have a way?

No. gabe.

He did not consider himself capable of withstanding the fury of the Void Prying Stage powerhouse on the side of the purple-clothed youth.

“I will order someone to send this 10 million gold to him …. However, our Ma Clan money is not so easy to take. Then, when sending the money, I will order someone to send Xia Guang's corpse to the Magnolia Jade Trading Firm Branch in Black Wind City.” The moment the middle-aged man finished speaking, his eyes flickered with a ferocious strand of light, and within the strand was a trace of cunning aura.

“Patriark is wise!” Instantly, the gazes of the four old men, including Hu Jun, lit up.

The Jade Magnolia Trading Firm was one of the seven great trading firms within the Azure Forest Kingdom, and there was no shortage of Void Prying Stage martial artists within it.

Xia Guang was the person in charge of the branch of the Magnolia Jade Trading Firm in Black Wind City.

And most importantly, Xia Guang's father was the Vice President of the Jade Magnolia Trading Firm, and on top of that, his father was also a formidable Void Prying Stage powerhouse!

That night, Duan Ling Tian obtained the 10 million gold sent by the Ma Clan as he wished, and it caused him to be unable to resist sighing with emotion. This money came too fast.

Far away at night, Duan Ling Tian was cultivating as usual….

Nine Dragons War Ruler Technique, Python Wyrm Form!

Right now, Duan Ling Tian was still stuck in the bottleneck of the third level Origin Core Stage, and he was only half a step away from the fourth level of the Origin Core Stage.

“I should have been able to break through before arriving at the Seven Star Sword Sect.” Duan Ling Tian let nature take its course and cultivated until late at night before falling into a deep sleep.

At dawn the next day, after having breakfast with the two little girls, Duan Ling Tian's group set off with four Ferghana Horses, directly out of the Black Wind City.

And not long after the group of four Duan Ling Tian left, the other two Ferghana Horses chased after, following from afar.

“Hmph!” After spurting their horses forward and going far away from Black Wind City, Duan Ling Tian's gaze suddenly turned cold.

At first, he didn't notice.

Now, when he saw someone chasing from afar, Duan Ling Tian's face became gloomy.

Duan Ling Tian told the two little girls and Xiong Quan, then the four of them swung the horse whip in their hands at the Ferghana Horse, causing the Ferghana Horse to accelerate and gallop.

In an instant, they had created more distance between them and the two people behind.

The two people who followed behind were two middle-aged men. When they saw the group of Duan Ling Tian which was made up of four people suddenly speeding up disappearing before their eyes, anxious expressions appeared on their faces, and they hurriedly spurred their horses to run forward wildly.

However, they quickly realized that after running for some time, the road in front of them was peaceful, and they could not see the figure of the person they were following.

“Where are they?” The two men looked at each other, and both of them had confused expressions.

As far as they were concerned, the horses below them were Ferghana Horses as well, so the four people should not have been able to make such a long distance between them.

“Are you two looking for us?” Right at this moment, a voice sounded from behind them, causing their faces to turn pale.

As they turned their horses around, they saw their four targets spurring their horses to walk forward slowly, walking towards them….

They watched the middle-aged man among the four sweep them with an ice-cold gaze, and they could not help the coldness that appeared in their hearts.

They could feel how frightening this middle-aged man was.

Their bodies trembled lightly, and traces of terror appeared in their eyes.

Duan Ling Tian looked at them with a calm gaze. “Speak, why are you following me?”

Duan Ling Tian's gaze became a little cold when he saw the two of them looking hesitant. “If you don't talk, you two can die here today.”

Instantly, under Duan Ling Tian's gaze, the faces of the two men turned pale, and they hurriedly said. “God, I will speak, I will speak …. We are from the branch of the Magnolia Jade Trading Firm in Black Wind City. Our Vice President who asked us to follow you.”

“Jade Magnolia Trading Company?” Duan Ling Tian's brows were knitted. Only now did he remember that Ma Qin from the Ma Clan Auction House seemed to have mentioned this Jade Magnolia Trading Firm yesterday.

The middle-aged man who wanted the Jade-eyed Heavenly Rat seemed to be a member of the Jade Magnolia Trading Firm!

The middle-aged man and the two old men were all at the Half-Step Void Stage, so their status in the Jade Magnolia Trading Firm should not be low.

“Why did he send you two to follow me?” Duan Ling Tian asked, in a deep voice.

“God, we are not sure of the exact reason; we just follow the order.” Both shook their heads.

Duan Ling Tian's gaze did not leave them from start to finish, and in the end, he noticed that these two people did not seem to be lying. Recalling the middle-aged man yesterday, Duan Ling Tian asked, “Do you two know Xia Guang?”

“Xia Guang?” The two of them hurriedly nodded after hearing this. “The president of our Magnolia Jade Trading Firm branch in Black Wind City is precisely Mr. Xia Guang.”

“President of Jade Magnolia Trading Firm branch in Black Wind City?” Duan Ling Tian's eyes narrowed, as he never imagined that the middle-aged man from yesterday had such a background.

It seemed like the Spatial Ring he had casually taken from Xia Guang should have considerable wealth in it.

Right at this moment, Xiong Quan looked at the two of them and asked, This “Xia Guang, what relationship does he have with the Vice President of the main branch of your Jade Magnolia Trading Firm, Xia Dou?”

The two men replied after hearing what Xiong Quan had asked. “Master Xia Guang is the only son of Mr. Xia Dou.”

Duan Ling Tian noticed that when Xiong Quan heard what the two of them said, he frowned.

“That's it! If I see you following me again, you two will definitely die!” Duan Ling Tian's ice-cold gaze swept over the two men, causing the two men to feel relieved and reveal joyous expressions before spurring their horses to kick the cloud of dust, not daring to turn around.

Duan Ling Tian noticed something was wrong in Xiong Quan's expression, so he curiously asked, “Xiong Quan, you know Xia Dou?”

“Young Master, that Xia Dou is the Present Vice of the main branch of the Jade Magnolia Trading Firm, and I have dealt with him before…. His strength is on par with mine when my strength is at its peak,” Xiong Quan respectfully.

“Sixth level of Void Prying Stage?” Duan Ling Tian nodded. That year, when he had just met Xiong Quan, he still remembered what Xiong Quan had said to him. Xiong Quan in his prime had a cultivation at the sixth level of the Void Eradication Stage.

“Young Master, the people from the Jade Magnolia Trading Firm may be following you because of the Ma Clan. Should we?” Xiong Quan waved a sign to kill.

“Klan Ma mere is nothing …. Rushing with our trip is more important now. We should arrive at the Seven Star Sword Sect as soon as possible. If we are late to the outer court disciple exam of the Seven Star Sword Sect.months from now, then we should wait another six months.” Duan Ling Tian shook his head. As he said, he really looked down on the Ma Clan.

If they turned around now and exterminated the Ma Clan, it would only be a waste of time.

As far as he was concerned, if he delayed entering the Seven Star Sword Sect due to the matter with the Ma Clan, then his losses would outweigh the benefits.

“Ya.” Xiong Quan nodded. To him, whatever Young Master said, would happen.

He was just a Young Master's servant.

The four of them continued to hurry on their way.

“Squeak squeak~” At an unknown time, the little golden mouse had woken up from his deep sleep, and after realizing it was on the Ferghana Horse, he was very happy. It then leaped onto the head of the Ferghana Horse and nodded to Ke Er like a human. That's very happy.

“Hiss hiss~” Seems to have been awakened by the little golden mouse, Little Black and Little White stuck their heads out of Duan Ling Tian's sleeves and looked at the little mouse. Their golden and silver eyes flickered with strands of bright light.

“Splitting!” The little golden rat looked at the two little pythons, then completely turned his body and shook his butt towards them….
