Chapter 1084: Duan 3dao Is Coming
After Lin Tian came down, he greeted the leaders of the major sects who had just arrived, and exchanged a few words with his two good brothers Huo Shaotian and Jian Cangsheng. Then the Dragon Emperor called everyone to find a seat and sit down to prepare for dinner.
Exquisite and rich dishes were served one by one. Just by looking at the appearance, you can tell that the business of the nearby farmhouse must be good, because their chefs' skills are very good.
The Dragon Emperor stood up with a wine glass. Everyone looked at him, thinking that he was just saying a few words symbolically, after all, this was where his cultivation and status were the highest.
Just like a family gathering or a gathering of colleagues, the elders and leaders always have to say a few words, raise the wine glass and invite everyone to drink, and then everyone officially starts the meal. This is also a tradition of Chinese dinners and wine tables.
But who knew that the Dragon Emperor stood up with a wine glass and said:
"It's raining heavily outside. Since you are here, why don't you come in and have a drink together!"
While he was speaking, he also looked coldly outside the gate. Although it was a little dim there, plus the heavy rain, there was nothing. But Dragon Emperor's words and his posture indicated that there was someone outside the house.
"Who is outside? Come out!" The people of Ni Lin were the first to stand up, patting the table. Although they didn't see anything, they were 100% sure of Dragon Emperor's judgment.
Others were a little skeptical. After all, the people present had high cultivation levels, and the heavy rain and darkness outside did not affect their sight at all.
However, they all stood up, looking at the door, ready.
"Friends outside, why be so polite? We are all gathered together for the same purpose. Please come out and show yourself!"
Li Li shouted with full energy, and his words puzzled everyone.
Dragon Emperor only said that there was someone outside, but did not specify whether it was an enemy or a friend, which meant that even Dragon Emperor could not judge.
But from what Li Li meant, the one outside the door was 100% his own?
Li Li shrugged at the curious eyes of everyone and pointed at Lin Tian.
Unlike the Dragon Emperor who was in doubt and the people who were on guard, Lin Tian sat there and seemed very relaxed, even with a smile on his face.
The people present were all familiar with Lin Tian, and they even knew him well.
This guy was famous for not following the usual path,
but he was a guy that even the Dragon Emperor often felt surprised and astonished.
It seemed that Lin Tian had discovered that there was someone outside the house early on, and he seemed to know who it was. Thinking of this, everyone relaxed a lot, which at least showed that the person outside was not an enemy.
But everyone stood there waiting for a while, and no one appeared outside. The Dragon Emperor's face suddenly became a little embarrassed. He snorted coldly and was about to rush out, but Lin Tian reached out and grabbed him.
Lin Tian stood up, pressed the Dragon Emperor to sit on the stool, took the wine glass from the Dragon Emperor, turned around, and actually handed it out, saying:
"The Dragon Emperor toasts you with wine, please don't refuse."
Everyone looked at it and felt puzzled. After Lin Tian turned around, he happened to be face to face with a cook who had just brought in food from the back yard.
Lin Tian was holding a wine glass and actually inviting the cook to drink.
The cook was holding a bowl of rice, with his head slightly lowered, and remained silent.
The Dragon Emperor looked at him carefully, and was a little puzzled at first, then he opened his mouth in surprise, suddenly sighed, and said:
"I didn't expect that there would be a day when I would notice a mistake."
The cook, who was slightly lowering his head, walked to the side and put down the rice bowl, and said proudly:
"You are already very powerful to be able to discover my existence."
The man raised his head, and Fairy Zixia and her men saw his face and shouted in surprise:
"Brother Duan San! I didn't expect you to come too!"
The man was Duan Sandao, who Lin Tian had called to invite before. He had an appointment with the old leader of the Tianxia League and was only responsible for guarding the headquarters town of the Tianxia League. He was not responsible for anything else.
So, Fairy Zixia naturally didn't know that he came to help Lin Tian this time.
That's why she was very surprised. She didn't expect Lin Tian to be so influential that he could even invite Duan Sandao, who was elusive and hadn't appeared since Lin Tian left.
Duan Sandao only nodded slightly to the happy greetings from Fairy Zixia and others, indicating that he heard it, but his eyes were always staring at Lin Tian.
Those eyes were extremely cold, as if there was nothing in the world worth his concern or worth his extra attention, full of pride.
But at this moment, there was a hint of surprise and scrutiny in those cold and proud eyes.
"I didn't expect you to make such great progress. Not only did you detect my breath, but you can also accurately determine my position. Not bad." Duan Sandao seemed to be praising Lin Tian, but there was no appreciation in his tone.
And his face was expressionless, just like his voice, revealing a sense of indifference and alienation.
"Brother Duan Sandao, your body skills have improved even faster. Even an old man like Long Di was careless and missed the opportunity. I was just lucky." Lin Tian said with a smile, still holding the wine glass in front of him.
Lin Tian's words were both praising Duan Sandao and giving Long Di a way out.
After all, with Long Di's status and cultivation, he didn't find the real location of the other party and was deceived. This is naturally a very embarrassing thing.
Fortunately, Lin Tian pulled Long Di out in time and stood up to point out Duan Sandao. Otherwise, when he stood up, Long Di would be embarrassed.
"Lin Tian, you don't need to defend me. What do you mean by momentary oversight? I really didn't notice it."
"This must be the expert you invited. He has the strength of a half-step fusion realm, but he has such a powerful body movement. It is really admirable!"
The Dragon Emperor is the Dragon Emperor. He is still so upright, which makes Lin Tian a little helpless.
Brother, I gave you a way out, but you didn't take it properly, and you had to jump down!
However, it is precisely because of this stubbornness and uprightness that Lin Tian and the people of Ni Lin admire and love him the most.
Even Duan Sandao, after hearing this, looked at the Dragon Emperor with some surprise.
However, soon, Duan Sandao continued to look at Lin Tian coldly, and did not take the wine glass he handed over, but said coldly:
"Lin Tian, the reason I came here is not to help you, but to let you fulfill your original promise."
"If you dare to regret, I will not be sentimental. Even if you have more people, I will still attack you."
"I hate people lying to me and going back on their words the most. No matter who it is, I will kill him!"
Duan Sandao's cold attitude and words surprised everyone.
Lin Tian waved his hand, held down the angry Li Li and others, looked at Duan Sandao, and smiled slightly:
"Believe me, this time, helping me is helping yourself."
Lu Xuan blinked his eyes, why did this sound so familiar?
