The Unparalleled King of War

The Unparalleled King of War
A thousand silver coins


Li Rou wanted to help the Fifth Elder out of his current situation, but despite being willing, he was powerless to provide his help.


Over the years, he had spent all his money on purchasing medicinal ingredients to help his son strengthen his constitution.


Combined with his son's recent expenditure on medicinal ingredients for the Seven Treasures Body Tempering Liquid, all of his savings amounted to just a little over a hundred silvers.


“What's up, Fifth Elder? Do you not dare to bet with the Seventh Elder? ”


Sixth Elder Li Ping laughed with a complacent expression.


Just when Li Ting was about to ask for a loan from the other elders.


"Seventh Elder, I will give you that five hundred silver bet!"


A voice sounded from far away.


Following this voice came the young couple walking hand in hand.


The one who spoke before was a young man.


The young man had sword-shaped brows and starry eyes; he was extremely handsome with a graceful demeanor.


It was indeed Duan Ling Tian!


“Ninth Elder, after spending most of your money on your son during these years, could it be that you still have five hundred silver left?”


Seventh Elder Li Kun was made fun of while glancing at Li Rou deeply.


Li Rou's brows wrinkled slightly and she sighed lightly in her heart.


“Greetings, Patriarch, Grand Elder, and all Elders.”


Duan Ling Tian walked to the high platform while holding Ke Er's hand and lightly bowed to the Li family's higher-ups.


Patriarch Li Nan Feng glanced at Duan Ling Tian with a shocked expression. The last time he saw her was a month ago.


At that moment, Li Rou was furious and punished the son of the Seventh Elder, Li Xin.


Back then, Duan Ling Tian was just a sickly person.


But Duan Ling Tian looked like a completely different person now!


"The third level of the Body Tempering stage .. Duan Ling Tian, you actually broke through to the third level of the Body Tempering stage!"


When Li Nan Feng instinctively examined Duan Ling Tian's cultivation, his disciple shrunk and his face showed an expression of disbelief.


Lin Nan Feng's startled cry was like a rock falling into a pond and causing thousands of waves.


Instantly, everyone on the platform looked at Duan Ling Tian.


After a while, everyone on the platform except Li Rou and Li Ting had expressions of disbelief.


"If my memory is correct, a month ago when he was severely injured by Li Xin, he hasn't even become a martial artist yet!"


"Just in one month, this Duan Ling Tian transformed from an ordinary human into a perfecting body and then reached the third level of the Body Tempering stage …. I didn't see anything, did I?"


“You didn't see anything; he was actually at the third level of the Body Tempering stage. It seems like he must have gained an unintended advantage! "


Including the Seventh Elder, most of the Elders were all dumbfounded.


The scene before them was something that took quite a long time to react to.


Grand Elder Li Huo opened his eyes and looked at Duan Ling Tian with a curious expression.


Li Kun breathed in a breath of cold air.


Duan Ling Tian breaking through to the third level of the Body Tempering stage was something that exceeded his expectations.


However, once he thought about the difference between the third level and the fourth level of the Body Tempering level, he felt comfortable once again.


In his opinion, whether Duan Ling Tian was at the second level or the third level of the Body Tempering stage was no different for his son Li Jie.


“Duan Ling Tian, you said earlier that you were willing to bet five hundred silver with me?”


Li Kun looked at Duan Ling Tian as he asked.


"Yes." Yeah."


Duan Ling Tian nodded.


“But as far as I am concerned, the Ninth Elder has spent most of his money on you in the past few years, so I'm afraid his savings aren't enough to amount to five hundred silver.”


Said Li Kun.


His face showed a self-satisfied expression as he waited for Duan Ling Tian to give up.


“You're right, my family really can't collect five hundred silver.”


Duan Ling Tian nodded.


His family's financial situation was something even he knew about.


It was for this reason that he wanted to deceive Li Kun of his five hundred silvers.


“Duan Ling Tian, the bet between me, Fifth Elder, and Sixth Elder is done using the money currently available. The money must be handed over to the Patriarch so that he can be a witness …. If you think you can bet without actually having the money to back it up, you are wrong. "


Li Kun smiled mockingly.


“Did I say I would place a bet without having any money first? Do you think I'm like you? ”


Disdainfully glancing at Li Kun and ignoring his blazing-looking eyes, Duan Ling Tian let go of the young girl's hand and lightly said, "Ke Er, go to my mother."


The young girl cleverly nodded and went to stand beside Li Rou.


"Ninth Chief, you have incredible luck!"


Some elders glanced at the young girl and congratulated Li Rou one after another.


They all noticed that the young girl would grow up to be an extremely beautiful beauty on par with Li Rou.


Li Rou smiled in response to the congratulations of the elders.


Beside her, the young girl's face had long since turned red in embarrassment.


<“What is Tian planning?”>


Seeing his son fighting Seventh Elder Li Kun, Li Rou's eyes flickered with a hint of hesitation.


It is getting harder to understand his son.


“Then let me see how you, Duan Ling Tian, made five hundred silver today. If I am not mistaken, even the Fifth Elder cannot produce another five hundred silver. "


Just when Li Ting was about to take out his last three hundred silvers, Duan Ling Tian's reply not only interrupted his actions but also caused him to have a shocked expression on his face.


“Do not worry, Seventh Elder, I do not plan to borrow money from Fifth Elder.”


Said Duan Ling Tian, under the incredulous gaze of the Li family higher-ups. He then walked in front of the Grand Elder.


“Grandfather, I know that since you usually have to process and refine medicine, your body may have many hidden wounds …. How about I help massage you and then you give me five hundred silver as payment. Whaddya think? "


Duan Ling Tian looked at Li Huo and smiled faintly.


“Tian, don't cause trouble!”


Li Rou's face changed.


Within the Li family, the status of the Grand Elder was even above that of the Patriarch. Seeing his son being arrogant in front of the Grand Elder, he felt angry and worried.


Hidden injury?


The Grand Elder was a Grade Nine Alchemist; if he really had hidden wounds, he would have already taken care of himself.


Just when the Patriarch and all the higher-ups were expecting the Grand Elder to be enraged.


“You want five hundred silver just to massage me? Son, you really know how to ask for an exorbitant price. ”


Li Huo glanced at Duan Ling Tian with a curious expression, smiling lightly.


"Grand Elder, how about I massage you first …. When you're done, you judge the effect yourself and pay me according to what you think it's worth."


Duan Ling Tian did not care what Li Huo said.


Hearing what Duan Ling Tian said aroused Li Huo's interest.


"Okay, I'm curious about your abilities, son."


The only reason he agreed was because Duan Ling Tian had changed a lot in the past month.


Within a month, breaking through to the third level of the Body Tempering stage of an ordinary person was something that was completely unbelievable.


As a Grade Nine Alchemist, he was very conscious.


A normal person would not be able to completely transform into a third level Body Tempering martial artist in just a month even if that person had an endless supply of body suppressing medicinal pills.


Duan Ling Tian was currently covered in mystery.


Moreover, his body actually had hidden wounds that had worried him for many years, so he wanted to try Duan Ling Tian's massage.


Seeing Duan Ling Tian standing behind Li Huo and putting his hands on his shoulders, most of the Li family elders had strange expressions on their faces.


They thought the Ninth Elder's son was dreaming. If an ordinary massage could really produce five hundred silvers, they would resign themselves from the elder to become a masseuse.


Seeing this scene, the corner of Li Kun's mouth curved into a cold smile.


Disrespect the hierarchy and play the Grand Elder!


Not only would the Grand Elder be furious, it would also be a crime against the Li family!


In his opinion, Duan Ling Tian was less fortunate.


Li Jie and the surrounding Li family disciples in the Martial Arts Training Hall were unable to hear what was being said on the high platform, so they had no idea what was going on.


Seeing Duan Ling Tian standing behind the Grand Elder and massaging him, their eyes almost dimmed and nearly fainted!


What was Duan Ling Tian doing? Did he think that giving a massage to the Grand Elder would make the Grand Elder give him the strength to defeat Li Jie?


“F ** K! What was this Duan Ling Tian doing ?! ”


“Instead of getting into the arena once he arrived, he was instead busy flattering the elders. Was he trying to win the favor of the Grand Elder because he was worried that Li Jie would beat him too badly? "


“I think you're right. It seems the only possible explanation. ”


Duan Ling Tian's actions caused the anger of the masses.


"Grand Elder, when I'm massaging, please don't circulate your Origin Energy."


Said Duan Ling Tian to Li Huo. Using the strength in his hands, he started massaging Li Huo's shoulders.


At this moment, a segment of memory flashed through his mind.


This memory segment belonged to the Rebirth Martial Emperor; it was an extremely ingenious massaging technique. This technique was created to treat the side effects present on the bodies of low grade alchemists.


Just when he saw the Grand Elder for the first time, Duan Ling Tian noticed from the bright black spot between his eyebrows that he was suffering from side effects.


This type of side effect usually presented itself to low-grade alchemists who had to research for themselves the method of refining medicine.


Usually this side effect would not cause any discomfort, but when the alchemist circulated Origin Energy, there would be pain in the body. On rare occasions, this pain would be so painful that it felt like a knife was twisted in one's heart and life was no better than dying.


Duan Ling Tian learned all of this from the memories of the Rebirth Martial Emperor.


Rebirth Martial Emperor, being a formidable alchemist, had researched the art of refining medicine for mastery, so there was nothing he was incapable of doing.


Suddenly, the movement of Duan Ling Tian's hand squeezing Li Huo's shoulder increased rapidly!


Li Huo's expression changed from calm and he began to tremble.


Immediately after, he clenched his teeth with a ferocious expression on his face as if he was facing an extremely intense pain.


The Li family higher-ups on the platform all felt shivering on their backs.


How painful could it cause the formidable Grand Elder to have such an expression?


Fifteen minutes later, Duan Ling Tian stopped while sweating profusely.


“Hu!”


At this moment, Li Huo let out a mouthful of dirty air. After slowly opening his eyes, they shone like there was a row of stars inside. He looked as if he had grown ten years younger.


Origin Energy circulated smoothly throughout his body, causing him to feel a pleasant feeling like never before!


In the past, circulating his Origin Energy would reopen his hidden wounds, but at this moment it seemed like those hidden wounds had disappeared.


“Grand Elder, you still need to receive two more massages after this to fully treat the hidden wounds in your body. Now, how do you feel, Great Elder? How much do you think you should give me as payment? ”


Duan Ling Tian smiled faintly.


Li Huo laughed loudly, swiftly taking out a pile of silver money.


“Take a thousand silver for now. Later, every time you massage me, I will give you a thousand more like this time .What the hell are you saying? ”
