Chapter 175 (2/2)
After a while, Ling Tian said, ”Since Third Master doesn’t want to admit his loss, you can just follow us. When you are fully recovered, this young n.o.ble will exchange pointers with you again! How about that? Since this brother of mine also seems to think highly of Third Master.”
In Ling Tian’s heart, he also admired Yu ManTian’s martial arts. The st.u.r.diness of this Third Master was indeed frightening. After fighting Ling Jian for such a long time, being riddled with injuries and having his Inner Qi exhausted, Yu ManTian was still able to withstand three palms from himself! After that, Yu ManTian only spat out a small mouthful of blood and rolled a few times.
After a short meditation, Yu ManTian was able to jump back up with vigor. The st.u.r.diness of his body could be easily witnessed.
Ever since Ling Tian was born into this world, apart from Yu QingChen, this Third Master Yu would probably be ranked second amongst all the people he had met!
Ever since Ling Jian said that he was probably the Third Master of the Yu Family, Ling Tian had immediately guessed his ident.i.ty. He was originally worried that the colors of this Sky Bearing Gathering would be less vibrant without the Yu Family, but he never expected this Third Master Yu to appear from out of nowhere! To Ling Tian, this was just like a golden ingot that fell from heaven, smas.h.i.+ng right into his head! If he didn’t make use of this precious resource, he wouldn’t be called Ling Tian!
Rejecting Yu ManTian's desire to follow them had been a lie in the first place. Seeing that he was really anxious, Ling Tian would definitely not chase him away! Instead, he displayed the intentions to befriend him.
Three people rode on two horses, Ling Tian and Ling Jian on one and Yu ManTian on another. Along the way, the three of them recovered from their injuries as they joked together. With Ling Tian’s eloquence, he was naturally able to easily encourage conversation with Yu ManTian. Yu ManTian was filled with smiles along the way, talking about the national affairs of the continent and completely forgetting how he had just suffered a loss in Ling Tian’s hands! Along the way, they chatted about the various characters on the continent and discussed the different martial arts with a kind of, ‘heroes of the world, who else can they be but us’, feeling. However, Yu ManTian’s many years of experience were indeed not empty words, and both Ling Tian and Ling Jian felt like they had received plenty from their conversations.
Along the way, Ling Tian and Ling Jian both joined hands to probe about the Yu Family from Yu ManTian. Of course, they only asked some surface-level questions and Yu ManTian never noticed that the both of them were trying to probe for information. The straightforward Yu ManTian then opened his mouth and talked without restraint about the things he knew.
The three of them then traveled along slowly, with two wise guys acting foolish and another completely foolish fellow, moving harmoniously towards the Sky Bearing City.
By the time they arrived at the Sky Bearing City, the three of them were already close to the point of addressing each other as brothers…
The night was dark.
”Err, I say, martial arts expert Third Master, do you want to stay at this young n.o.ble’s residence? Anyway, this young n.o.ble does admire an expert like you, how about that?” Ling Tian was obviously trying to be hypocritically friendly.
However, this completely described the saying, ‘despite the thousand considerations of a wise man, he will definitely fail once!’ Ling Tian did not think about what kind of person Yu ManTian was. Even if Ling Tian was just asking out of courtesy, he would definitely take it for real!
Indeed, as Yu ManTian heard that, he was filled with a temptation to accept Ling Tian’s offer. Ling Tian couldn't help but cry out bitterly in his heart: If this foolish Third Master can’t see the true meaning behind my words and chooses to accept the offer, it will really be ‘the luck of a foolish man’. What should I do? Bring him to the Ling residence? That obviously isn’t a practical solution!
Thankfully, Yu ManTian mulled over the matter for a long time before saying with regret, ”Thank you, but I need to find my niece first and I also have something important to do. Brother, where do you stay at? Why not tell me so we can have a good fight after my injuries are recovered? I really do admire you and that black dressed brat!”
Ling Tian rolled his eyes and said, ”Hehe, Third Master, my house is in this Sky Bearing City and it isn’t time for me to tell you yet. When you are able to find me, we will be considered friends. At that time, I definitely will comply if you want to have a fight! How about that?”
Yu ManTian let out a laugh and said, ”Alright, it’s a deal!” At the same time, he thought to himself, In such a small place, wouldn’t it be an extremely easy thing to find someone? Besides, with your martial arts prowess, there will definitely be many who know you in the city.
