Chapter 976 Falling out with Dan Zong
"Master Qing, do you have any advice?" Li Tianchi said with a frown.
"I heard that a great alchemy genius named Jingtian came to Danhuang City recently. Is it true?"
Although Master Qing was asking questions, his eyes had already passed through the crowd and saw Jingtian. As for the issue of the heavenly tribulation mentioned earlier, it was obvious that they didn't care.
Or maybe they already knew that it was Jingtian who was going through the 19th heavenly tribulation.
Jingtian narrowed his eyes and found that it was indeed coming towards him!
"Dan Zong is still so hypocritical. He pretends to ask again something that has already been confirmed. Is it interesting?" Li Tianchi responded with contempt.
This is a very powerful statement. Is it interesting to pretend that you don't know something and ask it again when you already know the answer?
The expression of the Qing Hall Master changed slightly, and just as he was about to speak, another Xing Hall Master spoke up.
"Master Qing, don't waste your time talking to them. Just tell them directly and let us take Jingtian away."
The head of the Punishment Hall was obviously a hot-tempered and straightforward person, and he went straight to the point as soon as he opened his mouth.
This is good, as it saves us from the hypocrisy.
"What is the basis for handing it over to you?" This time it was Elder Dan who spoke.
It would have been fine if he had just kept silent, but as soon as he opened his mouth, the two hall masters on the opposite side did not dare to confront him. This was the Dan Emperor, and he could not be despised or insulted no matter where he was.
"Master Dan, this matter was personally ordered by our sect leader, who wants to invite Jingtian to stay as a guest in the Dan Sect for two days." Master Qing bowed and said respectfully.
"This is the first time I've seen someone invite someone with this attitude. If you want to invite someone, just go to the Li family in Danhuang City." Li Tianchi took over the conversation again.
“Li Tianchi, don’t take my honor away. Do you want to go against the wishes of my Danzong leader?” The head of the Xing Hall got angry.
" Going against your sect leader's wishes? Where does that come from? When did your sect leader come to our Danhuang City to take charge?" Li Tianchi narrowed his eyes.
The two forces are inherently incompatible, yet your boss comes to meddle in other people's affairs. Who will tolerate your bad habits?
The two hall masters of the Dan Sect were choked by Li Tianchi's words.
They are used to being superior and believe that their leader's orders are the most important and everyone must obey them.
I have been practicing for too long, and sometimes my brain is still a little unclear.
“Li Tianchi, what do you mean? Our sect leader is the Alchemy Saint. As a saint-level alchemist, he wants to meet a mere ninth-grade alchemist. Are you going to stop him?” said Master Qing with narrowed eyes.
"Of course I dare not stop it, but it also depends on the wishes of the person involved? If the person involved is unwilling, will you invite him or arrest him?" Li Tianchi said directly.
All in all, Li Tianchi's cultivation is far inferior to the two in front of him. After all, they are both the hall masters of the inner sect of Danzong, and their cultivation level has reached the peak of the fusion stage, while Li Tianchi is one big realm behind them.
But Li Tianchi was still not afraid. He was sure that these people would not dare to use force, at least not here.
"You are Jingtian, right? Come here and answer the question." Master Xing was not polite and pointed at Jingtian directly.
Ao Shui and Li Yu stood directly in front of Jingtian, and their intentions were very clear.
"Don't worry, I'll see what this guy wants to say." Jingtian patted the two of them and walked out.
Mr. Hu didn't say anything, but followed Jingtian closely.
Old Hu is undoubtedly the most powerful person here. Even if there are ten people on the other side, Old Hu alone is enough.
"Jingtian, right?" asked Master Qing .
"Is there any point in asking questions when you already know the answer?" Jingtian rolled his eyes.
The head of the Qing Hall frowned and said, "Come with us. The Sect Master has made an exception and issued a special recruitment token for you. You can directly join the inner sect of the Dan Sect and choose an imperial-level alchemist as your master..."
"I understand. You are trying to recruit me, right?" Jingtian didn't even need the other party to finish speaking. He just smiled faintly and said.
A hint of sneer flashed in the eyes of Qingtang Master, but he nodded. "Yes, you can think of it as a recruitment. You will be treated very well in Danzong. As long as you work hard, it will not be a problem to surpass Yan Beidao."
"Yan Beidao? My master has already surpassed him now!" Li Yu spoke lightly behind Jingtian, with a hint of disdain in his tone.
"Master? If I remember correctly, you are the best alchemist of this generation in the Li family. A king-level alchemist worships a ninth-grade alchemist as his master?" Master Qing narrowed his eyes and looked at Li Yu.
"What's it to you?" Li Yu retorted directly.
"You bastard, how dare you, a junior, speak to me like that..." Hall Master Qing became furious at Li Yu's words and raised his hand to lose his temper.
"Want to fight? Our Li family will accompany you to the end!"
Li Tianchi snorted coldly and waved his hand. Ten powerful men at the peak of the Spirit Severing Realm lined up in a row and stood in front of Li Yu, Li Siluo, Ao Shui and the others.
Among these four, they have the lowest cultivation level, even Ao Shui is only at the Nascent Soul stage.
As for Jingtian, he is safest with Old Hu by his side.
The Qing Hall Master raised his hand and retracted it. He ignored Li Yu and looked at Jingtian and said, "Jingtian, I just want to ask you one question. Will you follow us back to Danzong?"
"No." Jingtian said without hesitation.
"You... know what Danzong stands for? Following Danhuang City will only lead you to a dead end." Master Qing shouted angrily.
"Dead end? Even if there is a dead end, I will find another way. You don't need to worry about that."
Jingtian said very coldly. Originally, there was no need for Jingtian to offend Danzong. After all, he was just a passer-by. It would do him no good to offend the largest sect.
But Dan Zong was so arrogant from the beginning. Jingtian could imagine that if he really followed him to Dan Zong, it would definitely not be as good as this guy said.
No one would recruit people with such an attitude.
Even if we take a step back, several families in Danhuang City have been very good to him, and have a certain relationship with the Li family, and one of them even accepted a disciple from the Li family.
"Okay, very good. You want to participate in the Alchemist Competition, right? I can tell you clearly that you don't have that chance!" Master Qing pointed directly at Jingtian and said.
"Whether there is an opportunity or not is not up to you, nor is it up to your Dan Sect to decide." Li Tianchi took over the conversation.
Li Tianchi said it with confidence. The Alchemist Competition was held in Danzong. However, if you trace the origin, it was not organized by Danzong, but by people from Central Region.
Their Dan Sect does have all kinds of advantages, but it is still not enough to cover the sky with one hand. Danhuang City wants to ensure that Jingtian can participate smoothly. Unless Jingtian is killed halfway, Dan Sect has no right to deprive Jingtian of his qualification to participate.
"You mean that the Li family is willing to protect him at all costs?" said Master Qing.
"We can guarantee Jingtian's safety without risking our lives. Not only our Li family, but our entire Danhuang City!" said Li Tianchi.
"Why waste so much time talking to them? The Sect Master has ordered that Jingtian must be taken back. Since they refuse to accept our toast, just capture him!"
The head of the Xing Hall couldn't bear it anymore, and seeing that soft tactics didn't work, he decided to use force.
