"Master, I..."
"You brat, if I had known this, I would have cut you into pieces!"
Whether it was the core disciple of Tianjian Sect who invited Ling Dao over or Zhen Zhinan, they didn't know what to do. It was obviously the second elder's intention, but they couldn't talk too much, otherwise they would definitely be punished. It is true that they are all star realm warriors, and they are core disciples of Tianjian Sect. However, compared with the second elder, they are far behind in terms of status and strength. What's more, the second elder is still their master, so it's easy to deal with them.
"Okay, let's get down quickly. Isn't it embarrassing enough?"
The second elder glanced coldly at Zhen Zhinan and the core disciple of Tianjian Sect, obviously dissatisfied with them. Although the two of them are much stronger than Ling Dao, they are obviously not as good as Ling Dao in other aspects. The most basic thing is that Ling Dao can play tricks on them now, but there is nothing they can do. They were afraid of the second elder, but Ling Dao was not. Anyway, those who were barefoot were not afraid of those who wore shoes.
"Yes, Master!"
Zhen Zhinan and the core disciple of Tianjian Sect both glared at Ling Dao and then retreated unwillingly. The Second Elder will handle the next matter personally, so there is no need for them. Thinking of Ling Dao's fate, the two of them laughed secretly again. Anyone the second elder wanted to deal with could never end well. Even the First Elder is not as powerful as the Second Elder, let alone the others.
As long as the sect master and deputy sect master don't come out, and the Heavenly Sword Sect's Universe Mirror King doesn't care, then the entire Tianjian Sect will simply be the second elder's world. Ling Dao's talent is that of an evildoer. There is no one in the entire Tianjian Sect who can match Ling Dao. However, Ling Dao is only at the late stage of Mortal Transformation Realm, and he is just an ordinary core disciple. How can he fight with the second elder
"What? You don't want to see me so much?"
Not paying attention to the Tianjian Sect disciples in the distance, the second elder only had Ling Dao in his eyes. To be able to break into the twenty-first floor of the Little Tongtian Sword Tower at the age of seventeen and only in the late stage of the Mortal Realm is definitely the first person in the history of the Tianjian Sect. Even though Ling Dao was just a young man, the second elder did not look down upon him. People with such evil talents could not be stupid themselves.
"The second elder was joking, but I've never met the second elder before, so I'm a little bit frightened!"
Not to mention the second elder, even the disciples of Tianjian Sect in the distance could not help but roll their eyes. Zhen Zhinan and the core disciple of Tianjian Sect who had just retreated staggered and almost fell to the ground. Are you the only one who still has stage fright? Why didn't I notice you had stage fright when I dug more than 100,000 high-grade spiritual stones outside the Little Tongtian Sword Tower? Why didn't I notice you had stage fright when you challenged the top 100 in the Inner Disciple Ranking Competition
"I heard what my disciples said about you. You have achieved such an achievement at such a young age. I am ashamed of myself. They say that being famous is worse than meeting each other. Now I really believe it. A hero is born from a boy. If you don't mind, please come in. A narration!"
Contrary to Ling Dao's imagination, the second elder did not use his power to overwhelm others, nor did he think of ways to attack him. Instead, he made a "please" gesture. The more this happened, the more vigilant Ling Dao became. The first elder reminded him to be careful about the second elder. Shi Sanyi also said something about the second elder. It was obvious that the second elder was not so easy to get along with.
"The second elder has given you too much praise. Since the elder won't give up, then I would rather obey your orders than respect him!"
At that moment, Ling Dao was not polite and walked directly into the palace of the second elder. The second elder had invited many people, but Lingdao was the first to stab him with such a big thorn. Even Zhen Zhinan, who was in the distance, stared wide-eyed. How dare Ling Dao deny the second elder face? Wasn't Ling Dao afraid that the second elder would be angry and kill him on the spot
In fact, Ling Dao did this on purpose. He just wanted to see how good the second elder could be. He wouldn't be afraid if the second elder tried to be tough with him, but the second elder was so polite, so there was no reason for him to get angry. It looked like he just walked into the palace swaggeringly, but in fact, he had been paying attention to the changes in the second elder's expression. No matter what the second elder did, he had a way to deal with it.
Unfortunately, the second elder's expression did not change much, only a cold light flashed in the depths of his eyes. Neither Ling Dao nor anyone else noticed the cold light flashing deep in the eyes of the second elder. Being able to reach the current status in Tianjian Sect, the second elder is naturally not that easy to deal with. The second elder has seen so many geniuses, but he has never seen one like Ling Dao.
"I don't know if the second elder asked me to come here. What advice can you give me?"
What left the second elder speechless was that after Ling Dao came in, he directly found a seat and sat down. If he hadn't figured out everything about Ling Dao, the second elder would not have tolerated Ling Dao being so presumptuous. The smarter a person is, the easier it is for him to be misled by his own cleverness. Ling Dao suddenly appeared, and then he rose to great heights. His rise was too fast, and everything seemed too smooth.
In the opinion of the second elder, there must be an expert behind Ling Dao, otherwise Ling Dao would not be so powerful. A seventeen-year-old warrior in the late stage of the Mortal Realm has not appeared in the Tianjian Sect before, but someone who can defeat four early Star Realm warriors in the late stage of the Mortal Realm has never appeared in the Tianjian Sect, not to mention that Ling Dao has obtained The ranking of Little Tongtian Sword Tower.
To say that Ling Dao is self-taught is simply impossible. After all, Ling Dao is too young. Especially since the second elder had read Ling Dao's information, Ling Dao had not appeared at all before the inner disciple ranking battle. The Daluo Dynasty was still quite far away from the Tianjian Sect. In such a short period of time, the second elder naturally did not investigate clearly. If the second elder knew that Ling Dao was only from an eighth-level force, he might not be as polite as he is now.
"In our Tianjian Sect, there has never been a Mortal Realm warrior who has been ranked in the Little Tongtian Sword Tower. Now that you have appeared, I am naturally very curious about you. Of course, if you don't tell secrets, I am even more curious about your master. . Being able to teach an outstanding disciple like you means that the master is also a well-known figure in the Eastern Sword Region. I wonder if I have heard of it!"
While the second elder was speaking, he was also paying attention to the changes in Ling Dao's expression. He has rich experience, and as long as Ling Dao reveals a little flaw, he will be able to guess it nine times out of ten. In his opinion, Ling Dao is so young, no matter how talented he is, he cannot be so experienced in dealing with people. Sure enough, what happened next verified the second elder's idea.
Ling Dao's face clearly showed a trace of surprise, probably because he was surprised how the second elder knew that he had a master. Immediately afterwards, Ling Dao's eyes rolled a few more times, probably trying to hide the matter. When the second elder mentioned that Master Ling Dao was also a well-known figure in the Eastern Sword Region, Ling Dao's face showed a hint of pride. After the second elder said everything, Ling Dao fell silent, probably thinking about how to respond.
The second elder thought that his estimates were all correct. Even if they were not completely correct, they should be about the same. It's a pity that if he knew Ling Dao's true thoughts, he would probably want to kill him head-on. The reason why Ling Dao was surprised was because he didn't expect the second elder to say that he had a master. He rolled his eyes, just thinking about how to make up a story based on the second elder's ideas.
Next, Ling Dao was proud and silent, naturally he deliberately pretended to show it to the second elder. Although the second elder was said to be cunning and cunning, he did not expect that Ling Dao had such a mind at such a young age. If he was testing other old guys, the second elder would definitely be more careful. Unfortunately, Ling Dao's age made him relax. He thought he had figured out all Ling Dao's thoughts, but he didn't expect that Ling Dao would lead him away.
"The second elder is joking, how can I have a master?"
If he admitted it directly, the second elder would definitely be suspicious, so Ling Dao denied it. This is how it should be for people like the second elder. The more Ling Dao denies it, the more the second elder becomes more determined in his opinion. Although Ling Dao was only seventeen years old in this life, he had not lived in vain for so many years in his previous life. The second elder thought that he was young and easy to misbehave, but little did he know that he had fallen into his trap.
"You don't have a master, so how did you practice for so many years? If you don't have a master, who taught you the Thunder Shadowless Sword? If you don't have a master, who gave you the top-grade sword? Don't you think you cheated me? Isn’t it a bit unjustifiable for such an old man?”
The second elder was confident, and Ling Dao didn't know how to answer a series of questions. The second elder was laughing secretly in his heart. His smile was still too young. Ling Dao was also laughing secretly in his heart, laughing that he hadn't thought of a reason yet, but the second elder gave him a lot of reasons. Cleverness leads to misunderstanding. This should be said about people like the Second Elder. Complicating simple things is the biggest mistake he makes.
"This... actually... I..."
Ling Dao stammered in reply. It had to be said that he was very good at pretending to be dumbfounded. In the eyes of the second elder, his successive attacks had caused Lingdao to lose his position. In fact, Ling Dao just pretended to show it to Ling Dao. If the second elder thought that Ling Dao had a powerful master, then the next matter would be easier to handle. Before figuring out who Ling Dao's master is, the second elder should not kill Ling Dao.
"Also, your ability to break into the Little Tongtian Sword Tower is probably due to your master, right?"
The second elder didn't believe it at all that Ling Dao could reach the twenty-first floor of the Little Tongtian Sword Tower on his own. When the second elder thought about it, Ling Dao's master should have given Ling Dao some divine sword or forbidden weapon, so that Ling Dao could obtain the ranking of the Little Tongtian Sword Tower. Originally, Ling Dao was still thinking about how to make the second elder more convinced of his own ideas. Unexpectedly, the second elder found a reason for him again.
"The second elder is joking. In fact, I got the ancient inheritance and achieved my current achievements! Yes, that's it. Second elder, you have to believe me!"
Whether it was Ling Dao's tone or Ling Dao's demeanor, it made the second elder snicker. Now, Ling Dao still wants to lie to him? And for such a poor reason, do you really think he is a fool
