Zhong Qi Shan had only seen Duan Ling Tian for the first time today. Naturally, he was not as confused as Feng Bu Yi was.

When they saw their Leader had no intention of competing for a better accommodation in the little valley with the people from the Azure Cloud Mansion, Feng Bu Yi and Zhong Qi Shan turned around obediently and entered the vacant wooden houses one after another.

The little valley instantly regained its tranquility.

“Lord Mansion Master, the dragon clan must have intentionally arranged for the people from the Mountainshade Black Market to stay with us! Shall we ask for an explanation from them? They really have gone too far by doing this!” Ku Mi said with a cold gleam in his eyes.

“There’s no need for that.” Duan Ru Feng shook his head. “The reason we came here is to fulfill the five-years pact, not to create conflict with the dragon clan. Now that the five-year pact is just around the corner, it’s better for us not to raise more trouble. Moreover, there was no conflict between us and the people from the Mountainshade Black Market like they wished for.”

Although Duan Ru Feng said this, a terrifyingly cold light flashed in the depths of his eyes.

“The dragon clan really did go overboard,” Gu Li chimed in.

“The dragon clan!” Duan Ling Tian muttered to himself as his eyes glinted.

Initially, he only had enmity with Di Jue. His hatred toward Di Jue did not affect his opinion of the dragon clan. However, he no longer had any good opinion of the dragon clan now.

‘Three days later, I must snatch the opportunity to enter the dragon clan’s Saint Land, the Dragon Cleansing Pool from Di Jue during the battle of the five-year pact. At that time, I’d like to see what kind of expressions the members of the clan would be like,’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself. He was determined to snatch the chance to enter the Dragon Cleansing Pool.

To Duan Ling Tian and the others, three days passed by in just a blink of an eye.

When Duan Ling Tian walked out of the wooden house on the third day, he discovered his father, Elder Ku, and Gu Li were already waiting for him outside.

On the other side, the three people from the Mountainshade Black Market had also risen in the air with Leader Dugu in the lead. They all made their way to the venue to watch the show.

When Duan Ling Tian came out, Dugu immediately noticed him. Not only that, but Dugu stared at him intently before he brought the two Deputy Leaders from the Mountainshade Black Market away, disappearing in the sky above the little valley in just a blink of an eye.

The direction they were heading in was in the east. It was where the dragon clan had decided to hold the battle for the five-year pact

“Let’s go!” Duan Ling Tian was unwilling to be left behind when he saw Dugu who had come to watch the show had left before them. He motioned to Duan Ru Feng and the other two before they left the little valley together and made their way east.

The venue the dragon clan had arranged for the battle of the five-year pact was a huge valley situated at the east of the dragon clan’s lair.

This valley was extremely vast, but there were no signs of greeneries at all. It was a barren land, and it looked as though an earth-shattering war had taken place here. This was also the place where members of the dragon clan would have friendly matches.

Although it was a friendly match, due to the strength of the members of the dragon clan, they would destroy the valley and cause a huge commotion even if they only used a little of their power. This was also why there were no signs of greeneries in this valley. Since it was destroyed so often, it was almost impossible for anything to grow here.

“So many people?” When Duan Ling Tian and the others arrived after Dugu and the other two, they discovered many people in the sky above the valley. Naturally, most of these people were from the dragon clan. The remaining people were from other quasi third-rate forces who also came to watch the show after they heard the news.

Unlike Azure Cloud Mansion and Mountainshade Black Market, these people from the quasi third-rate forces who came to watch the show were not led by any high-ranking officials.

“Good day, Mansion Master Duan!” Due to this reason, each of them politely greeted and respectfully bowed at Duan Ru Feng. After that, they began to shift their attention behind Duan Ru Feng to look at Duan Ling Tian.

With just one glance, they could see the slight resemblance between this young man and Duan Ru Feng. For this reason, they could tell he was the Duan Ru Feng’s son, Young Mansion Master Duan Ling Tian of Azure Cloud Mansion!

“It’s him!” At the same time, many people began to recall the portraits they had previously seen. One after another, they narrowed their eyes. The person on the portrait was identical to the Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion. Moreover, the person on the portrait was also called Duan Ling Tian.

He was the lucky person who obtained the Devilseal Tablet, one of the ten great Super Saint Weapons on the Ten Great Saint Weapons Ranking despite not being that strong.

He had seemingly vanished into thin air when everyone in the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land was searching for him to snatch the Devilseal Tablet away. The moment he disappeared, he was gone for several years. Due to this reason, they had gradually forgotten about this matter as well.

If they had not seen him in person this time, perhaps, they would have completely forgotten the appearance of the young man in the portrait after another few years.

“Previously, I did find it quite coincidental when I heard the name of the Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion since he has the same name as the person who possesses the Devilseal Tablet. It’s not only the name, but even their appearances are the same. It so obvious they’re the same person!”

“God is really unfair! It’s acceptable that he possesses the Devilseal Tablet, but to think he’s also the Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion. How’s this fair?”

“I can’t believe the young man who obtained the Devilseal Tablet and disappeared is the Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion!”

Many people whispered among themselves. They were shocked by the fact that the Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion was also the one who possessed the Devilseal Tablet.

Duan Ling Tian was already mentally prepared for his identity to be exposed so he was not surprised.

“Rumor has it that the five-year pact was proposed by Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion to Clan Leader Di Shan of the dragon clan. They’ll be represented by Young Mansion Master Duan Ling Tian of Azure Cloud Mansion and Di Jue, the successor of the Clan Leader of the dragon clan!”

“I remember when the Devilseal Tablet appeared, it was said that it was obtained by a young man who didn’t even break through to the Pristine Saint Stage yet. Speaking of that, that young man must be the Young Mansion Master of the Azure Cloud Mansion, Duan Ling Tian!”

“In other words, the Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion was only a Saint Rudiment Stage Martial Cultivator a few years ago?”

“The Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion was a Saint Rudiment Stage Martial Cultivator who didn’t even break through to the Saint Stage a few years ago? Di Jue was already at the peak of the Divine Saint Stage at that time! He was also merely a step away from breaking through to the Exemplary Saint Stage!”

“Two people with such a huge gap in strength is going to fight today? Are you sure this isn’t a joke?”

“How could the Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion propose the five-year pact? Isn’t he just looking for trouble for his son?”

The discussion in the surroundings continued. Nobody had any good opinion about Duan Ling Tian.

However, Duan Ling Tian’s expression remained unchanged faced with everyone’s doubt.

He had always been like that. He would let people talk as much as they liked. Nobody knew what the outcome would be until the end!

Currently, it would be useless even if he was eloquent and said that he could defeat Di Jue. Only the result would shut their mouths!

When the members of the Mountainshade Black Market and the Azure Cloud Mansion revealed themselves with their leaders in the lead, it, naturally, attracted a lot of attention from the crowd.

“I can understand the Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion’s presence here since he’s involved in the five-year pact. However, why is Leader Dugu of the Mountainshade Black Market here as well? Don’t tell me there’s something special about the five-year pact?”

“If our Pavilion Master knew Leader Dugu would be here, he would’ve come as well!”

“How could we have known before we came that Leader Dugu would be here to watch the show as well?”

The moment Leader Dugu of the Mountainshade Black Market appeared, it caused a commotion since nobody expected him to be here.

“It must be because the pact was made by the Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion and the dragon clan. As Mansion Master Duan’s rival, it’s only natural that he would come to join in the fun. If Mansion Master Duan’s son is defeated, he could even mock Mansion Master Duan a little.” Many people began to speculate.

“The dragon clan’s members are here!” Somebody said. Although his voice was not loud, many people heard his words. His words began to spread like wildfire.

Everyone, including the people from the Azure Cloud Mansion and the Mountainshade Black Market, shifted their attention to the distant sky.

Five figures were making their way over here.

The person in the lead wore a long golden robe. It was an old man that looked as sturdy and large as a pagoda.

The moment he appeared, the members of the dragon clan present on the scene immediately bowed respectfully. “Clan Leader!”

Due to this reason, the old man’s identity became obvious to everyone. He was none other than Di Shan, the current Clan Leader of the dragon clan.

Di Shan was in the lead while four people walked next to each other behind him. There were two old men, one old woman, and one middle-aged man. All five of them were Five-clawed Divine Dragons!

As the Clan Leader of the dragon clan, Di Shan was a Five-clawed Golden Dragon!

As for the two old men behind him, one wore a long red robe. He was the Five-clawed Blood Dragon, Xue Chan. He was also the dragon clan’s Enforcement Elder.

The other old man was Qing Yan, the Five-clawed Green Dragon, who welcomed Duan Ling Tian and the others three days ago.

As for the old woman, it was none other than Zhi Jing the Five-clawed Purple Dragon who had welcomed the people from the Mountainshade Black Market three days ago.

The middle-aged man was none other than one of the leads for today, Di Jue!

Just like Di Shan, Di Jue was a Five-clawed Golden Dragon. They belonged to the dragon clan’s Imperial Clan!

As Di Shan and the other four made their way over, not only the members of the dragon clan present on the scene bowed at Di Shan to show their respects, but they even bowed at the two old men and the old woman behind him as well.

As for Di Jue, one of the leads for today, very few people bowed at him since he did not have a strong sense of presence.

Naturally, this did not mean anything. One could only say he was still too young.

“Di Jue!” Duan Ling Tian’s gaze landed on Di Jue from afar. His calm expression had been replaced with a grim expression as terrifying killing intent flashed in his eyes.

Di Jue had also noticed Duan Ling Tian’s gaze.

Faced with the murderous gleam in Duan Ling Tian’s eyes, Di Jue slowly pointed his thumb up before he pointed it to the ground, provoking him.
