章 2676: Brushing Past

Tian Ji Yu, the County Governor of Nine Specters County, definitely would not tell the old lady about Duan Ling Tian participating in the Martial Competition of the 16 Counties in King Qin's Mansion if he had a choice. There was no doubt the old lady would make her way to King Qin's Mansion to kill Duan Ling Tian if he did. No one would be able to stand up to her except for King Qin himself at that time. He did not wish to see Duan Ling Tian die. After all, Duan Ling Tian was his only hope to obtain the three mediocre Celestial Pills, the Great Overarching Pills. He did not stand a chance otherwise. He had longed for those pills for a long time now. He would not allow anyone, not even an Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial, to ruin his chances.

The old lady scoffed, and a wave of imposing energy hit Tian Ji Yu again, causing him to stumble back a few steps and spit out a mouthful of blood.
