Duan Lingtian walked behind the crowd with his hands clasped behind his back, his face serene, showing neither joy nor sorrow. Even when the two powerful Immortal Lords of the Luo Heaven stage, sent by the Nian Family Auction House, had appeared before him to take action, his expression had remained unchanged and utterly calm.
His composure did not stem from any confidence in his ability to handle such powerful cultivators, but from his knowledge that the two Immortal Lords of the Luo Heaven stage from the Liunian Inn would absolutely not stand by idly. Before he had eliminated the young man, Duan Lingtian knew that if the Immortal Lord from the Liunian Inn following the crowd did not permit him to kill that man, he would never have succeeded. If they did not intervene, it meant they tacitly allowed the killing. Under these circumstances, he naturally had no reason to worry about the consequences.
The facts turned out exactly as he had anticipated: when the two Nian Family Immortal Lords appeared to confront him, the two from the Liunian Inn also appeared, not to oppose him, but to protect him.
