THE LING TIAN LEGEND
episode 169

At this moment, Ling Jian was hiding in a gigantic tree with a thickness of three to four people combined. He was at least thirty to forty feet above the ground, waiting for a sure moment to attack! This is a killer's first lesson: Wait for the best chance!

Beneath her was a small village, and the young woman Zhang DeShuai wanted to marry was the daughter of a wealthy merchant!

After receiving the mission a few days ago and the sure news yesterday, the unemployed Ling Jian suddenly decided to take action personally to kill a mere tyrant. Of course, this was because Feng, Yun, Lei, Dian and Chi had received special training from Ling Tian and Ling Chen before Ling Jian returned. They all had an understanding of the training and were in a state of sudden enlightenment! Especially Ling Chi, where his increasing speed could be said to be as fast as lightning. At this moment, he was already at the crucial point of the fourth stage of the Heavenly Shocking Dragon Formula, with his improvement even faster than Ling Jian.

Sudden enlightenment! As a martial cultivator, Ling Jian was well aware of how rare this opportunity was for his younger siblings. If they were distracted at this moment, it was possible that they would never be able to advance a step further throughout their lives! The state of sudden enlightenment was an opportunity that could not be sought!

Such a state of affairs is like a modern scientist having a brilliant flash of wisdom, with an idea coming to one's mind. If such an opportunity were to be missed, it would be very possible for him to lose that important opportunity!

Right now, Feng, Yun, Lei, Dian, and Chi were in such a special condition. As their eyes opened and minds were enlightened, their power would take a huge leap forward. Be it their martial skills, the cultivation of inner Qi or the sharpness of their senses, they would definitely experience a huge leap within all of them! Right now, Ling Jian was protecting all of them like a little baby; how could he allow such a small mission to interfere with their cultivation?

Young nobles are indeed young nobles! He is not someone I can compare with! A trace of respect could be seen in Ling Jian's gloomy eyes. In recent years, Ling Jian had always pushed many of them to the brink of death, but had never seen much improvement in them. However, his young noble only gave them pointers for a few days and each of them looked like they were in a state of sudden enlightenment. As Ling Jian was filled with admiration for the young noble, he could not help but feel sad either!

While he laid a strong foundation in it and they were all on the verge of a breakthrough, they would definitely take longer if no one guided them through this crucial phase.

Thinking of this, Ling Jian could not help but smile. What was I thinking? The young nobleman had knowledge like a saint, his wisdom like a vast ocean. How can I expect to compare him to her? For something that I will need several years to complete, it is only right for the young noble to finish it in a few days! Now that the five of them were about to experience a breakthrough, Ling Jian felt happy for them from the bottom of his heart. Their breakthrough would signal a huge increase in strength for The First Pavilion!

After the Yu Family incident, Ling Jian deeply understood that his current abilities were far from enough. Now that his brothers had such an opportunity, not to mention unimportant missions, he would not let anything interfere with their cultivation — even if he had to risk his life!

Once their strength has all increased, I will definitely bring them to fight against that Yu Family! What number one hidden sect, nonsense! Ling Jian thought to himself as a cruel smile was seen on his face.

The once-in-a-hundred-year rain from last night did not deter Ling Jian in the slightest! The second lesson of a killer, never be hindered by the environment or sudden change of situation! Ling Jian had already arrived here at midnight and wanted to rush straight to the Yan territory to finish this tyrant off with a single sword. However, the sudden heavy rain caused a sharp rise in river water, destroying the wooden bridge from the surging currents. Thus, he would not be able to cross the river! If he went around the river, he would definitely need a few more hours. But if that was the case, it would be much more convenient for him to wait for his prey here!

Worldly affairs are like chess games, unpredictable and ever-changing. Some great events are born out of these seemingly insignificant events.

From far away, the sound of drums and music was heard getting closer. Mmm, Zhang DeShuai has finally arrived. I just want to know, how handsome is he really? Can he be more suave than this hit man here? Under the influence of Ling Tian, be it Ling Jian, Ling Chi or the others, they were firmly convinced that they were the most handsome people besides their young nobles!

A light flashed across Ling Jian's eyes and he thought to himself, “I don't care if you're handsome or not. From today on, you are just a lump of meaningless meat! Your name should be changed from ‘Zhang DeShuai’ to ‘Zhang DeLan 1’!” [1]

Now that the time for separation was near, the family, who was not too far away from the tree, began to weep bitterly. Their beautiful young miss would be sent to the tiger's mouth; how could their family not be overwhelmed with depression?

The music and drums approached quickly, clearly showing how impatient Zhang DeShuai was. A while later, they had already entered the village and the sound of the dog barking crazily mixed with drums and music, sounded extremely disharmonious.

From afar, Ling Jian could already see Master Zhang De Shuai's appearance and he could not help but spit out in disgust. The ugly ones do cause more damage! A guy like him — black like charcoal, fat like a pig and short like a ball — really dare call himself Zhang DeShuai?! Even the dark horse he was riding on was much friendlier than him! With his loser-like appearance, I will definitely make him look like a loser later on!

Closer, closer! As long as you walk another 50 feet, it will be hell for you! Seeing that rebellious face, Ling Jian held the hilt of his sword.

Yu ManTian felt very lucky today!

That huge rain actually started to gradually stop after he left the Yu Family home. Moreover, the weather today was very good and he even met with joyous events along the way! This is a sign of luck! While this groom doesn't look too pleasant, and he looks like he's over 50 years old …

However, this is still an exciting opportunity! Furthermore, he met them when he had just entered the borders of the Sky Bear Empire. Yu ManTian was in a very pleasant mood because this not so handsome fellow had invited him to attend the banquet. (Note from the author: It is mainly because this person is too ‘popular’ among the crowd. No one dared to attend her wedding at all so Third Master Yu was there just to fill in the numbers!) Third Master Yu felt somewhat pleased in his heart, giving the blessing to this new couple in his heart. Hopefully, these grooms won't die of joy as they make their wedding a reality!

Initially, Third Master Yu was somewhat distressed from his conversation with his elder brother last night. In the eyes of big brother, me and second brother actually cannot compare to those young silk pants! This is unforgivable!

As he thought of his elder brother who said, “You are not allowed to call him silk pants! If he is a silkpants, the two of you can be considered as what?”, Yu Man Lou feels anger in his heart! If that's the case, I'll go and deliver a nice blow to this young hero for that big brother to see it well! Don't let you look down on me! We are all leading experts!

However, this joyous opportunity instantly brightened up Yu ManTian's chaotic mood! It seems like things will definitely go my way in the Sky Bearing Empire this time around. The sky supported me, with the rain stopping and an exhilarating event in front of me!

Just as Yu ManTian was about to give his blessing to the groom, he suddenly felt that there was something in the middle of it, as a sense of danger began to overwhelm him! To a martial arts fanatic like Yu ManTian who had gone through thousands of battles, such a feeling was very familiar to him! Could there be an ambush somewhere? Furthermore, his opponent seemed to be a fairly skilled assassin?!

Right at this moment, the big fatty had walked to Yu ManTian's side on his horse, not bothering to glance at Yu ManTian. He had an indecent smile on his face as several shimmering strands seemed to hang in his mouth..err, it was actually saliva, immediately feel the urge to vomit.

Suddenly, a figure descended from above like a light, with the sword in his hand giving off a brilliant gleam, unleashing a wave of uncontrollable killing intent! The target was the groom on horseback, Zhang DeShuai!

As an assassin, regardless of whether your target is a peerless expert or an ordinary person, one must definitely give everything in a first strike to kill in a single strike! He must not give the enemy a chance even to catch his breath! This was something Ling Tian had always reminded Ling Jian of.

Against everything Ling Tian said, Ling Jian had always followed him unconditionally! So, Ling Jian had used everything he had in this attack! Ling Jian's intention was to decapitate the enemy with a single sword and immediately leave the place without a trace! Lest he delay the important affairs of his young nobles in the capital!

However, Zhang DeShuai's luck was simply too good!

Yu ManTian suddenly felt as if the space around him looked completely sucked dry as this black-clothed figure appeared! Everything had been gathered on that long sword!

A top class killer! A leading expert!
