C1120 A Week
In Leishan's mind, too, there was a storm.
The death of a cultivator at the top of the Saint Origin Stage was already a shocking thing even for the Grand Middle Sky.
Not to mention that this cultivator at the peak of the Saint Level was killed by a cultivator at the peak of the Heavenly Dao like Ling Jian.
Whoosh!
At this moment, a figure suddenly flew out from the Dao Validation Villa.
Many pairs of eyes looked at the figure. They saw that the figure was the owner of the Dao Validation Villa.
At this moment, the owner of the Dao Validation Villa was also shocked.
After all, the Imperial Advisor Zhou was in the same cultivation level as him. Even though he was weaker than Ye Xiao, the difference wouldn't be too big.
However, Imperial Advisor Zhou died in Ling Jian's hand. He was killed by a single punch.
That meant Ling Jian had the capability to kill him, too!
"You are the master of the Dao Validation Villa?"
Ling Jian looked at the lord of the Dao Validation Villa and spoke blandly.
The expression of the Mountain Lord of the Dao Verification Villa changed slightly. He thought that Ling Jian was going to attack him at this moment.
"Don't worry. The reason why I asked you this is because I want to do you a favor. This time, I have gained a lot from the Heavenly Pond of Dao Verification. Since I am the leader of the mountain, I can tell you that if you run into any trouble in the future, I can help you solve it once. That is my way of returning the favor."
Ling Jian blandly spoke. However, as Ling Jian finished his words, the prime master couldn't help but notice that his heart was beating fast at the moment.
A favor from Ling Jian?
Ling Jian didn't even look like he was fifty years old. However, he did have the capability to kill Imperial Advisor Zhou.
In the future, when the spiritual sword was improved, it would definitely become stronger.
If they let Ling Jian owe them a favor now, when Ling Jian became truly powerful in the future, the House of Dao Verification would have a huge umbrella to protect them.
At that time, nobody in the entire Middle Sky would dare to attack the Mountain of Dao Verification, would they?
Ling Jian naturally did not know what the current Dao Proving Mountain Lord was thinking. At this moment, he was prepared to turn around and leave after saying these words. He was prepared to head to the easternmost part of the city to find Nalan Yanran.
"Ling Jian, are you planning to go to the Fire Country?"
The Dao Verification Mountain Lord's eyes stared at Ling Jian's back before asking.
"Fire County? Why should I go to the Fire County?"
Ling Jian was going to leave the Dao Validation Mountain Villa, but when he heard what the mountain lord said, he couldn't help turning around and looking at the mountain lord.
Only then did the Dao Verification Mountain Lord realize that he had overlooked something. That was, Ling Jian did not know what had happened to Nalan Yanran. He immediately voiced his thoughts, "Half a month ago, Nalan Yanran came out of seclusion and successfully passed through the Nine Heavens Lightning. She became the first cultivator in the history of the Grand Middle Heaven to successfully experience the Nine Heavens Lightning. She shocked the entire Grand Middle Heaven."
Ling Jian also nodded his head when he heard this. He naturally knew about this matter.
Back then, in order to break the stone pillar in the Dao Proving Heavenly Lake, Wanjie had used all sorts of methods to attract Nalan Yanran's Nine Heavens Lightning.
Otherwise, let alone the Nine Heavens Lightning, even eight bolts of lightning would be difficult for Nalan Yanran.
"Originally, according to my intention, I was planning to accept Nalan Yanran as my final disciple. Although this thought of mine is selfish, if Nalan Yanran becomes my final disciple, I will similarly properly train her and allow her to become the top expert in this world as soon as possible. However, I did not expect that Duke Dao Huo would appear at this moment."
The Dao Validation Mountain Lord spoke slowly, "After the Duke of Flame came out of seclusion this time, his cultivation level went from the peak of the Saint level to the true Saint Spirit level. He became a true Saint Spirit level expert. Therefore, even I cannot be too presumptuous to the Duke of Flame, who is in the Saint Spirit level."2
"However, even I did not expect that Duke Huo's character would be a little too overbearing. Not only did he take Nalan Yanran away, but he also announced to the world that Nalan Yanran was about to become the Empress of the Huo Province."
Duke Huo had broken through to the Sacred Spirit level!
After hearing the words of the leader of the righteous path, even with Ling Jian's mental state, he still adjusted his brows.
Even though he now had the ability to get rid of State Preceptor Zhou in one move, it was still a little troublesome for him to deal with a cultivator of the Holy Spirit Realm.
After all, Ling Jian's cultivation hadn't reached the Saint level yet. Unless he used the Heavenly Destruction Sheath, the chances of him winning against a cultivator at the Saint Spirit level weren't very high.
However, just as Ling Jian was thinking about it, when the mountain chief finished talking, Ling Jian's face suddenly turned cold.
What did he hear?
Nalan Yanran was about to become the Empress of the Huo Country?
Even now, Ling Jian clearly remembered the words that Nalan Yanran had said to him in the Heaven Dao Corrosion Lake.
Although Ling Jian had not known Nalan Yanran for a long time, he had long since treated Nalan Yanran as his own woman.
The reason why he planned to head to the easternmost part of the city this time around was to search for Nalan Yanran.
However, Duke Huo had forcefully taken Nalan Yanran away and forced her to marry?
"When will this wedding be held?"
Ling Jian's eyes suddenly swept over the Dao Verification Mountain Lord with a cold gaze as he asked in an icy voice.
"It... it will be around a week later."
The Dao Verification Mountain Lord was still slightly stunned by Ling Jian's gaze. When he regained his senses, he hurriedly replied.
"In a week!"
Ling Jian frowned and said, "What if we rush to the Fire Country from here?"
"At this distance, even a late stage Saint would need at least half a month's time."
"Half a month?"
Ling Jian muttered and nodded his head. Even a late stage Saint would need half a month, but with his speed, he would be able to finish it in about a week.
In that case, one week was enough.
