2657 Information About The Celestial Fire Zhou Tong, a Great Overarching Golden Celestial and the first Revered Elder of the County Governor’s estate of Nine Specters County, was killed by Liu Feng Gu, the City Governor of Bloody Specter City, one of the cities under the jurisdiction of Nine Specters County!

If the news was to spread out, it would definitely cause a commotion in Nine Specters County! However, due to Elder Hong’s quick response, this matter was only known to Liu Feng Gu, Duan Ling Tian, and Qin Yu.

After Liu Feng Gu killed Zhou Tong, a hint of glee could be seen on his face. He looked in the direction of the County City of Nine Specters County with a hint of mania in his eyes as he muttered, “Qian’er… did you see it? Your master has finally avenged you!”

Suddenly, Duan Ling Tian recalled something. Although he did not want to disturb Liu Feng Gu now, since it was important, he asked, “City Governor, why didn’t I sense the Minor Floating Image Celestial Talisman when Zhou Tong died?” His expression turned grim when he thought about the moments of Zhou Tong’s death being transmitted to Tian Ji Yu, the County Governor of Nine Specters County. Tian Ji Yu might let him go on account of his value and the Martial Competition of the 16 Counties, but he might not let Liu Feng Gu off the hook. Perhaps, he might be able to save Liu Feng Gu if he pleaded for leniency, but who knew what would happen in the future after he left? After all, he could not stay in Nine Specters County just to protect Liu Feng Gu.

Liu Feng Gu came to his senses when he heard the urgency in Duan Ling Tian’s tone. He shook his head and replied, “He didn’t carry a Minor Floating Image Celestial Talisman. Don’t worry about it.”

“Didn’t carry a Minor Floating Image Celestial Talisman?” Duan Ling Tian was confused.

Before Liu Feng Gu could reply, Qin Yu who had seen the confusion on Duan Ling Tian’s face replied, “Duan Ling Tian, Great Overarching Golden Celestials can easily block a Minor Floating Image Celestial Talisman. Generally, those who’re able to kill Zhou Tong are stronger than Great Overarching Golden Celestials. For this reason, it’s pointless for him to carry a Minor Floating Image Celestial Talisman. Although you’ve not become a Great Overarching Golden Celestial, your strength is on par, if not stronger, with a Great Overarching Golden Celestial based on how you defeated and restrained Zhou Tong. Earlier, didn’t you easily block his Communication Celestial Talisman? If you’re able to do that, it means you can easily block a Minor Floating Image Celestial Talisman as well.”

“I see. I thought I failed to sense his Minor Floating Image Celestial Talisman.” Duan Ling Tian sighed in relief.

Bang!

A loud explosion rang in the air as Liu Feng Gu suddenly lifted his hand and destroyed Zhou Tong’s corpse. The only thing that remained on the ground was Zhou Tong’s Spatial Ring. He lifted his hand again and used an invisible energy to bring the Spatial Ring to Duan Ling Tian.

Duan Ling Tian knew it was pointless to refuse so he accepted it. Moreover, based on Liu Feng Gu’s character, he knew Liu Feng Gu would not keep the Spatial Ring since it would not have been possible for Liu Feng Gu to kill Zhou Tong if it were not for him!

After that, Liu Feng Gu said, “Let’s have a seat inside.”

When they entered the hall, Liu Feng Gu offered the main seat to Duan Ling Tian. However, Duan Ling Tian chose to remain seated below. Meanwhile, Qin Yu took the seat next to Duan Ling Tian.

In the end, Liu Feng Gu forwent sitting in the main seat and sat across Duan Ling Tian. He, naturally, did not dare to put on any air. After all, in his eyes, Duan Ling Tian was no different from a Great Overarching Golden Celestial. Most importantly, Duan Ling Tian had just helped him take revenge.

As soon as Liu Feng Gu sat down, a gust of wind blew into the main hall. Elder Hong, the Leader of the Golden Serpent Guards, appeared behind Liu Feng Gu. He stood silently at the back, guarding Liu Feng Gu.

Liu Feng Gu looked at Duan Ling Tian for a long while before he finally said, “Duan Ling Tian, you really surprised me!”

“I’m sorry for making you wait for two years.” Duan Ling Tian smiled.

Upon hearing Duan Ling Tian’s words, Liu Feng Gu, Qin Yu, and Elder Hong felt the corners of their mouths twitched. Duan Ling Tian’s achievements would cause an uproar in the Spirit Overarching if they were made known, but to Duan Ling Tian, it seemed like they were nothing special.

“Duan Ling Tian, half a year ago, Lord City Governor had been extremely worried about you. He was worried Zhou Tong would kill you before you could grow strong enough. Who knew you’d come back with a heavily-injured Zhou Tong in tow? Most importantly, you helped Lord City Governor to take revenge for Young Master Qian!” Elder Hong sighed as he looked at Duan Ling Tian.

“Killed by Zhou Tong?” Duan Ling Tian was confused.

With Liu Feng Gu’s explanation, Duan Ling Tian finally learned about the incidents that happened half a year ago.

Duan Ling Tian said, “That’s why Zhou Fei knew I had just ascended to the Spirit Overarching Heaven two and a half years ago. He actually went to the Silverwyrm Army. However, Zhou Tong was really ruthless. He actually annihilated the Silverwyrm Army just to prevent news about me from spreading out!” He was slightly taken aback when he learned about what had happened.

“Zhou Tong had always been a cruel man. Fortunately, you’re stronger than him. Otherwise, I’m afraid he would have killed you,” Liu Feng Gu said.

Duan Ling Tian nodded, agreeing with Liu Feng Gu’s words.

“Elder Hong, please give us a moment alone. I have something to speak to Duan Ling Tian about in private,” Liu Feng Gu said. Although his words were directed at Elder Hong, he was looking at Qin Yu who was seated next to Duan Ling Tian.

“Yes, Lord City Governor,” Elder Hong responded before he withdrew.

“Lord City Governor, Duan Ling Tian, I’ll take my leave as well,” Qin Yu said tactfully before he left the main hall as well.

At this moment, only Duan Ling Tian and Liu Feng Gu were left in the main hall.

Swoosh!

Liu Feng Gu rose to his feet and disappeared like a gust of wind before he appeared in front of Duan Ling Tian. He bent at a 90-degree angle, bowing at Duan Ling Tian.

“City Governor, what are you doing?” Duan Ling Tian rose to his feet, startled by Liu Feng Gu’s action.

Liu Feng Gu straightened his back to look at Duan Ling Tian and solemnly said, “Duan Ling Tian, thank you.”

“City Governor, there’s no need for you to thank me. After all, we made a deal two years ago. You provided me with the best cultivation environment and resources in Bloody Specter City as well. We don’t owe each other anything.” Duan Ling Tian shook his head.

“I know. However, the deal doesn’t seem to be fair to you to a certain extent.” Liu Feng Gu shook his head as well.

“It’s nothing. Since I agreed to the deal, it means I was satisfied with the conditions,” Duan Ling Tian said.

Liu Feng Gu stubbornly said, “Regardless, I should still thank you.”

Duan Ling Tian could only respond with a helpless smile.

“Fortunately, I know the location of the Celestial Fire. Otherwise, I really don’t know how to repay you for helping me avenge my direct disciples.” Liu Feng Gu brought up the topic of the Celestial Fire.

Upon hearing this, Duan Ling Tian’s eyes brightened, and his heart began to race. Liu Feng Gu had told him about the Celestial Fire two years ago. There was a possibility that the Celestial Fire was not a mere primitive Celestial Fire.

“I’ll disclose the location of the Celestial Fire to you. I can’t say that it hasn’t been found, but due to the hidden location, it’s unlikely that someone has already discovered it. In any case, you should keep this in mind so you don’t get disappointed if the Celestial Fire has already been found,” Liu Feng Gu said.

“Okay.” Duan Ling Tian nodded.

Without wasting time, Liu Feng Gu told Duan Ling Tian that the Celestial Fire was located in the opposite direction of the County City of Nine Specters County. In order to go to that place, Duan Ling Tian would have to pass the County City.

Duan Ling Tian said, “City Governor, I will take my leave now if there’s nothing else.” He wanted to find the Celestial Fire as soon as he could, afraid that someone might find it before him.

“Sure.” Liu Feng Gu nodded. He understood Duan Ling Tian’s intention. However, before Duan Ling Tian left, he said solemnly, “Duan Ling Tian, although you’re not weaker than an ordinary Great Overarching Golden Celestial, don’t act recklessly. If you can’t obtain the Celestial Fire now, wait until you’re stronger before you return to retrieve the Celestial Fire.”
