Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Duan Ling Tian’s eyes were cold and he did not bother to conceal his killing intent at all. Even the people who came to watch could feel it.

“This Fire Worship Sect’s true disciple intends to kill Jiao Tu?”

Many of the sectless cultivators looked surprised. They did not think the true disciple from the Fire Worship Sect had chased after Jiao Tu to kill him.

“How did Jiao Tu offend him?”

Some sectless cultivators looked at each other in confusion.

“Didn’t you hear him? He doesn’t know Jiao Tu. He just dislikes the way Jiao Tu looks that’s why he wants to kill him!”

“You believe his words?”

“I do. After all, people from the Black Crow Alliance are infamous for taking advantage of others in Sin City. Maybe this Fire Worship Sect’s true disciple doesn’t like that and decides to take matter into his own hands and kill Jiao Tu who’s from the Black Crow Alliance!”

“I feel this reason a little far-fetched. There are so many members of the Black Crow Alliance around, why is this true disciple from the Fire Worship Sect targeting Jiao Tu? Moreover, Jiao Tu isn’t an ordinary member of the Black Crow Alliance!”

“I’m confused as well… Jiao Tu is the younger brother of Deputy Leader Jiao Zhan of Black Crow Alliance. Moreover, Jiao Zhan is at the Second Form of the Saint Celestial Stage and is ranked 566th on the Supreme Saint Ranking!”

“With Jiao Zhan’s strength, there are only a few Fire Worship Sect’s true disciples who are a match for him. This true disciple might not be one of them!”

“By right, he should be afraid of acting against Jiao Tu due to Jiao Zhan’s strength.”

The sectless cultivators who came to watch the show discussed among themselves. All of them were baffled. Naturally, there were a few people who thought things were not that simple. They thought Jiao Tu must have offended this true disciple from the Fire Worship Sect at some point. Otherwise, why was the other party so intent on killing him?

“My friend from Fire Worship Sect, although I’m just an ordinary member of the Black Crow Alliance, my second brother is Deputy Leader Jiao Zhan of the Black Crow Alliance!”

Jiao Tu knew Duan Ling Tian was serious when he sensed the killing intent getting stronger. In an attempt to save his life, he brought his brother up.

It seemed as though Jiao Tu was worried Duan Ling Tian did not care about his brother being the Deputy Leader of the Black Crow Alliance so he quickly said, “My second brother, Jiao Zhan, is one of the strongest among those at the Second Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. He’s ranked 566th on the Supreme Saint Ranking!” Jiao Tu sighed in relief once he finished speaking.

In Jiao Tu’s opinion, now that he had revealed the ranking of his brother, Jiao Zhan, on the Supreme Saint Ranking, the Fire Worship Sect’s true disciple would be frightened and would not dare to harm him.

“He’s ranked 566th on the Supreme Saint Ranking?” Duan Ling Tian said coldly as he narrowed his eyes when he heard Jiao Tu’s words.

“Yes.” Jiao Tu nodded proudly although he was not as smug as he usually was. Although his brother was strong, his brother was currently not by his side.

‘It seems like this guy from the Fire Worship Sect is afraid now that he knows my brother is ranked 566th on the Supreme Saint Ranking… Otherwise, he wouldn’t ask for confirmation,” Jiao Tu thought to himself.

Meanwhile, most of the sectless cultivators who came over to watch the show shared the same thought as Jiao Tu.

“Now that the true disciple from the Fire Worship Sect learns that Jiao Tu’s brother, Jiao Zhan, is ranked 566th on the Supreme Saint Ranking, he probably won’t dare to harm Jiao Tu.”

“That’s for sure! Moreover, Jiao Zhan is well known for being protective in the Black Crow Alliance. He’s usually biased toward members from the Black Crow Alliance, let alone his own brother!”

“It seems like there’s nothing worth watching after all!.”

Many sectless cultivators whispered among themselves, feeling disappointed since they did not think the true disciple from the Fire Worship Sect would dare to harm Jiao Tu now that he learned about Jiao Tu’s background.

However, would Duan Ling Tian fear Jiao Tu and not kill him just because of his background? Absolutely not.

“If my memory serves me well, I seem to be ranked on the Supreme Saint Ranking as well,” Duan Ling Tian said off-handedly. Although his tone was casual, the killing intent he radiated was still as strong as ever. In fact, it seemed to have gotten stronger.

When Jiao Tu heard Duan Ling Tian’s words, his expression turned grave immediately.

“A Fire Worship Sect’s true disciple who’s ranked on the Supreme Saint Ranking?!”

“From what I know, there are only eight true disciples, including the new prodigy, Duan Ling Tian, in the Fire Worship Sect who are ranked on the Supreme Saint Ranking. The eight of them are known as the Eight Great Prodigies of the Fire Worship Sect among the younger generation!”

“I wonder which of the eight prodigies this person is!”

When the sectless cultivators heard Duan Ling Tian’s words, their eyes brightened immediately. All of them were curious which of the eight prodigies Duan Ling Tian was.

“I didn’t know… Y-you… Which one of the Fire Worship Sect’s Eight Great Prodigies are you?” Jiao Tu asked after he mustered up all his courage. He was frightened and panicking at this moment.

“It doesn’t matter. You’re going to die anyway…”

When Jiao Tu heard Duan Ling Tian’s words, his expression changed dramatically. He finally realized the true disciple from the Fire Worship Sect was determined to kill him.

“I guess there’s no harm in telling you this. I’m Bu Hong, a true disciple of the Fire Worship Sect!”

Jiao Tu was still in a state of fright when Duan Ling Tian revealed his ‘name’.

Bu Hong!

Jiao Tu’s eyes widened in shock when he heard the name! He was no stranger to that name.

In fact, all of the sectless cultivators present on the scene knew this name.

In Fire Worship Sect, the Eight Great Prodigies were led by three powerhouses at the Third Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. Bu Hong was ranked second on the Fire Worship Sect’s True Ranking.

Naturally, these people had not heard the recent news in Fire Worship Sect where Duan Ling Tian defeated Bu Hong. Otherwise, they would know that Bu Hong was no longer ranked second among the Eight Great Prodigies in the Fire Worship Sect. From what they knew, Bu Hong, a prodigy from the Fire Worship Sect, was ranked 421st on the Supreme Saint Ranking.

Many sectless cultivators instantly looked at Jiao Tu disdainfully.

Jiao Tu had used Jiao Zhan who was ranked 566th on the Supreme Saint Ranking to scare Bu Hong off. As it turned out, Bu Hong was ranked 421st on the Supreme Saint Ranking. How ironic!

Was there a need for Bu Hong to fear Jiao Z han?

“I didn’t expect him to be Bu Hong!”

Many sectless cultivators were surprised.

“Bu Hong, apart from being the second among the Fire Worship Sect’s Eight Great Prodigies, he’s also the direct disciple of the Sanctum Leader of the Azure Dragon Sanctum! Moreover, the Sanctum Leader of Azure Dragon Sanctum is considered one of the strongest Golden Flame Elders in the Fire Worship Sect!”

There were some sectless cultivators who knew Bu Hong’s background.

“With Bu Hong’s strength and background… Why would he be afraid of Jiao Tu?”

Many sectless cultivators began to look at Jiao Tu sympathetically.

“Remember to be more humble in your next life… Moreover, on your way to hell, do keep in mind that the person who killed you is me, Bu Hong!” Duan Ling Tian said coldly while everyone was still in shock.

Jiao Tu’s expression changed drastically.

‘Run!” In the next moment, Jiao Tu turned to run. He was no longer arrogant, blatantly taking advantage of others. Currently, he was scampering away like a dog with its tail tucked in between its legs.

Sou!

It seemed as though Duan Ling Tian could foresee what was going to happen. He chased after Jiao Tu as soon as Jiao Tu moved. He maintained the distance between him and Jiao Tu.

Naturally, the sectless cultivators who were watching could tell Bu Hong, the true disciple from Fire Worship Sect, was toying with Jiao Tu.

It was common knowledge that almost all true disciples in the Fire Worship Sect were at the Saint Celestial Stage. They managed to become true disciples due to their high innate talent. It would take a second for ordinary true disciples to catch up to Jiao Tu, let alone someone like Bu Hong.

That was why it was clear to them that Bu Hong was only toying with Jiao Tu.

However, what they did not know was it was not Bu Hong who was chasing after Jiao Tu. It was Duan Ling Tian, the monstrous prodigy who had quickly risen in ranks in the Fire Worship Sect.

The reason Duan Ling Tian was slow was due to the fact that he did not cast the Elementary Devouring Tactic or the Golden Crow Wings. Otherwise, he would have caught up to Jiao Tu in just a blink of an eye!

Duan Ling Tian did not cast the two Divine Abilities because he would expose his identity.

Currently, Duan Ling Tian’s Sun Saint Energy was equivalent to the Saint Energy of a powerhouse at the Mastery Quintessential Saint Stage. Therefore, his speed was on par with Jiao Tu whose cultivation base was at the Mastery Quintessential Saint Stage.

“Bu Hong, there’s no enmity between us. Why do you insist on killing me?!” Jiao Tu asked in a panic. He had discovered Duan Ling Tian was chasing him at a leisurely speed. Similar to the others, he thought Duan Ling Tian was toying with him.

“I’ve already told you. I want to kill you because I hate your face!” Duan Ling Tian replied indifferently.

Meanwhile, Duan Ling Tian discovered the sectless cultivators were now quite a distance away. He quickly seized this opportunity and quietly cast the Divine Ability, the Elementary Devouring Tactic!
