Legend of Ling Tian

Chapter 478: Gentleman’s Conversation

Translator: DavidT Editor: Rock, DavidT

The scene in front of Yu ManLou was completely out of his expectations. Just a moment ago, it was as though he was on a battlefield and a moment later, it was as though he was basking in the gentle moonlight by the riverside. This drastic change in atmosphere caused even a steady person like Yu ManLou to fall into a daze.

About forty to fifty feet in front of him, a young teen was standing under a tree and looking at him with an amiable smile. He had a graceful and steady disposition and every move of his seemed to carry with him an unrestrained and carefree aura. As the wind blew past, the leaves gradually floated down from the tree and looking from afar, this elegant young teen looked like a young noble who was out on vacation.

Ling Tian didn’t continue to escape but actually waited for Yu ManLou calmly! As Yu ManLou walked into the forest, Ling Tian greeted with a smile, “You have arrived.”

The tone of Ling Tian’s voice was as though he was greeting a friend who was joining him for tea. There was even a tinge of joy within it as though a martial arts expert who stood at the peak of the world finally found a peer to exchange pointers with him. This was the loneliness of standing at the peak of the continent and also the mutual appreciation between individuals who stood at the peak. This was also the greatest respect one had for a worthy opponent!

At this moment, Ling Tian only had a single phrase in his heart. This phrase was not flattery or nonsense but Ling Tian’s true feelings!

“Even if I were to search the whole world, the only heroes in the world would be you and I!” Ling Tian finally understood CaoCao’s loneliness when he had said these words . 1

Just a moment ago, he was still chasing after Ling Tian and trying to exhaust all of his means to kill Ling Tian. But at this moment, Ling Tian’s attitude had changed completely and this drastic change of attitude had shocked even the unshakable Yu ManLou.

Just what was this young brat Ling Tian up to again? Could it be that he didn’t know that facing the Family Head of the Yu Family up front in such a manner was an extremely dangerous move that could cost him his life in an instant?

Ling Tian’s ‘You have arrived’ made Yu ManLou not know whether to laugh or cry and also made him feel that something was definitely wrong. Just what was Ling Tian relying on to treat him in such a manner? Furthermore, Yu ManLou was also very curious why Ling Tian was so certain that he wouldn’t deal with him. After all, he was just chasing after Ling Tian in an attempt to take his life just a moment ago. Up until now, Yu ManLou couldn’t even think of a reason why he shouldn’t kill Ling Tian.

With Yu ManLou’s acute senses, he could naturally deduce Ling Tian’s state of mind based on Ling Tian’s words and expression. An odd feeling surfaced in Yu ManLou’s heart and he revealed a smile. Following that, he swept off the dust on his robes as though he was a guest entering his host’s residence. He then walked forward and said calmly, “Ling Tian, you are truly bold.”

Ling Tian asked with his head slanted, “Oh?”

Yu ManLou replied with an amiable smile, “From our previous exchange, even if you were at your peak, you would still be slightly weaker than me. Now that you have been hit by my special inner qi, you are definitely not a match for me right now. As long as I continue giving chase to you, you will not have the chance to treat your inner injuries and force out the poison. As time goes on, you will definitely die under my hands.”

Ling Tian’s eyes gleamed and he replied with a warm smile, “Perhaps.”

Yu ManLou placed his hands behind his back and looked at Ling Tian with an undisguised look of appreciation. “Currently, my subordinates should have already informed the surrounding Yu Family experts and regardless of which direction you escape towards, there will definitely be someone watching you. You will receive definitely suffer different levels of obstructions and while they wouldn’t be able to block you, I would be following closely behind you. Thus, you are dead no matter what. After all, the surrounding thousand miles is the territory of my Yu Family! However, you actually chose to stop at this moment.”

Yu ManLou smiled and said with a crisp tone, “Not only did you stop, you even displayed such a casual attitude obviously with the intention to have a conversation with me. If I were to reject having a conversation with you right now, I would be lacking in demeanor.”

Ling Tian broke out with a wide smile. “You are indeed the head of a family and a character with the hope of ruling the world. Those little thoughts of mine can’t be hidden from you at all!”

Yu ManLou shook his head as he laughed. “Don’t try and flatter me. Even though your words sound extremely nice, I know that you are an eloquent individual who can turn black into white and round into square. However, your eloquence is completely useless to me! Speak your true intentions! What do you want to say? What bargaining chips do you have up your sleeves?!”

“Right, let me make something clear first. Regardless of what you say, you will never change my mind. You will definitely be killed by me today, and this is something that will never change.” Yu ManLou let out a leisurely smile. “You are truly exceptional and I will never believe any of your promises. I will only be truly safe if an enemy like you dies. I believe that you also understand this point. In this world, there aren’t many people capable of making me wary of and completely out of my control!”

Ling Tian replied with a smile, “Family Head Yu’s words are true and I thank Family Head for your praise!”

A glimmer shone in Yu ManLou’s eyes and he asked calmly, “Then why did you stop? I don’t believe that you would do something useless.”

Ling Tian let out a smile and with a wave of his palms in a slicing motion horizontally. Two trees by the side were then sliced cleanly from three feet up without a single sound. With a single hand, Ling Tian controlled the body of the two trees using his inner qi and placed the two trees onto the ground lightly. He then dusted his hands and said with a carefree smile, “An esteemed guest has come from afar, please take a seat.” He actually ignored Yu ManLou’s question and raised his arm to welcome his guest.

Yu ManLou glared at Ling Tian for a long while with a sharp gaze before breaking out into a smile suddenly, “Interesting, interesting indeed! To think that the bloodthirsty death god Ling Tian would be such an interesting person. It is a pity that there isn’t any wine present at the moment or I would definitely offer a toast to you.” He then walked forward slowly and sat down on the master’s seat. Ling Tian was the host of this banquet with Yu ManLou being the guest. However, Yu ManLou had actually taken the master’s seat obviously with the intention to overwhelm the host.

Ling Tian chuckled and said, “Family Head Yu is being too impatient. The battle between us is no longer a matter of mere territorial borders but will affect the situation of the whole continent. Before the situation in the world is settled, the position of guest and host is of little importance.”

Yu ManLou’s eyes flickered for a moment before saying, “We are in the territory of the Yu Family and I am the master here! Regardless of what happens in the future, that would be my status and this will be my seat! Over the many years, there have been many who wanted to take this seat of mine but they have all died without exception.” Yu ManLou used his chin to point at Ling Tian, “There has been no exception, you will not be one and there wouldn’t be any in the future as well!”

Ling Tian let out a silent chuckle and raised his head. “Family Head’s words make sense. I am indeed a foreigner of this land, and I should be the guest instead.” After that, he took a few steps back and sat down on the other tree stump.

While they had not exchanged a single blow, the confrontation between them had already started. In this first round of confrontation, Yu ManLou had gained the upper hand, and Ling Tian who was seated in the guest’s position was naturally on the losing end.

The sound of the leaves rustling in the wind could be heard and two experts shot over at high speed.

Ling Tian looked at Yu ManLou with a calm smile and apart from a slight trace of ridicule and mockery, Yu ManLou couldn’t read the deep thoughts in Ling Tian’s eyes. Yu ManLou frowned and shouted, “The two of you are to wait outside. No one will be allowed to enter!”

The sprinting figures stopped outside the forest and a respectful voice sounded, “Yes!” They then didn’t enter.

Ling Tian gave a calm smile and said with a trace of mockery and praise, “With a single command from Family Head, your subordinates don’t dare to make a single move. You are indeed a wise ruler and this point alone is to be praised.”

Yu ManLou watched Ling Tian calmly with gentleness like a caring elder looking at his descendant. He then chuckled, “I think I have an idea what you want to talk to me about already.”

Ling Tian said, “Oh? Even with Family Head’s brilliance, you may not be able to guess my thoughts right?”

Yu ManLou smiled, “Perhaps.”

All of a sudden, the two of them burst out into laughter together and there was no need for words.

Yu ManLou said with a bright laugh, “This atmosphere is indeed a mystical feeling. I think that there haven’t been many people since the ancient times who would have the chance to face their enemy and have such a peaceful conversation.”

Ling Tian chuckled and said, “Ling Tian does not feel that there is anything mystical about this. After all, I am still your in-law in name. While we may not have much time to converse as such in the future, we are relatives after all.” After that, he looked at Yu ManLou with a profound smile, “As long as you are willing to go to Sky Bearing.”

Yu ManLou’s brows furrowed and sneered, “It is a pity that not a single father-in-law would be able to feel assured with such a son-in-law! Such a son-in-law like you will only swallow the bones of your father-in-law without even spitting out the bones or skin. This old man has no choice but to guard against you.”

Ling Tian laughed to the point he couldn’t breathe before replying, “Family Head must be joking... ah ah... but is this really the case?”

Yu ManLou remained motionless as though he didn’t find what Ling Tian was laughing at funny, “That’s right.”

Unknowingly, the second confrontation ended and while it seemed to have ended in a tie, Ling Tian had the slight upper hand. However, he had to make use of Yu BingYan’s name before gaining this slight upper hand.
