"Senior, Zhao Zheng is your disciple?”Tian Yangzi looked at Ling Donglai and said in a deep voice.
"No." Ling Donglai shook his head.
"Then you were invited by him to help him?”When Tian Yangzi heard that Zhao Zheng was not Ling Donglai's disciple, he heaved a sigh of relief. As long as he was not Ling Donglai's disciple, he could still negotiate.
"Not really." Ling Donglai shook his head.
"Alright, you don't have to ask so much. You want to take your disciple away, right?”Just as Tian Yangzi was about to continue asking, Zhao Zheng suddenly interrupted him.
If Tianyang Zi continued to ask, Ling Donglai would reveal that he was Zhao Zheng's subordinate. Although it was fine to say this, Zhao Zheng did not want to expose it for the time being.
If Ling Donglai wasn't so famous, it wouldn't be a big deal. However, Ling Donglai was known as the world's number one grandmaster. Even if he had to save the Ming Dynasty from fire and water, the god-like Emperor Chongzhen had once said that he might not necessarily be able to defeat Ling Donglai.
If the news that Ling Donglai was Zhao Zheng's subordinate got out, it would attract the Imperial Family's fear. What if the main character was so frightened that he did not dare to show himself in the future?
After all, although the main characters were more powerful than Ye Chen, they were only at the martial grandmaster level. Although these main characters were very confident in themselves, no matter how confident they were, they did not dare to say that they could face Ling Donglai.
As long as Ling Donglai wasn't exposed, it wouldn't matter if Zhao Zheng's own strength was exposed.
This was because the strength he revealed would only be what he wanted others to see or what others thought. For example, after he killed Tian Yangzi, the world would only think that he was a late-stage martial grandmaster.
Although the late-stage martial grandmaster realm was also terrifying.
However, the main characters after Ye Chen were not afraid.
Not to mention others, just Xiao Kuang, the main character of the Return of the God of War after the genius physiognomist.
Xiao Kuang could be said to be at the peak when he first started. When he appeared, he was at the intermediate stage of the great grandmaster realm. Moreover, he had even established a mercenary association outside of Great Ming and recruited many martial artists in the wild. There were quite a number of grandmasters. It could be said that his power was extremely huge.
Xiao Kuang was very confident in his own strength. Two late-stage martial grandmasters had died in his hands. He could even kill ordinary peak-stage martial grandmasters. With this kind of strength, as long as he had a conflict with Zhao Zheng, Xiao Kuang would definitely dare to attack Zhao Zheng. He would not hide at all.
At that time, Zhao Zheng would have the opportunity to suppress Xiao Kuang and continuously harvest his luck value.
However, if the news that Ling Donglai was Zhao Zheng's subordinate spread, Xiao Kuang would not dare to provoke Zhao Zheng even if he had ten guts. Although Xiao Kuang was arrogant, he was not brainless. He was arrogant because he had an absolute advantage. In the eyes of all martial artists in the world, Ling Donglai's strength was definitely on the same level as Emperor Chongzhen. At most, Xiao Kuang would be able to deal with ordinary peak martial grandmasters.
An ordinary peak martial grandmaster could not even last ten moves from Ling Donglai. Wasn't Xiao Kuang courting death?
Therefore, the news that Ling Donglai was Zhao Zheng's subordinate could not be exposed, at least not for the time being. It could only be revealed when the main character with the strength of a peak martial grandmaster appeared in the future.
Although some people already knew Ling Donglai's identity, as long as Ling Donglai didn't say that he was Zhao Zheng's subordinate, no one would treat him as Zhao Zheng's subordinate. They didn't dare to think so either. It was just like how Emperor Chongzhen treated a Great Grandmaster as a subordinate? Reality?
Others would only think that Zhao Zheng and Ling Donglai had a deep friendship, and that friendship alone would not be enough to scare those lawless main characters.

"That's right. I want to take Chen 'er away." Tianyangzi said in a deep voice after hearing Zhao Zheng's words. After he finished speaking, he even glanced at Ling Donglai.
"You don't have to look at Old Ling. Don't worry, he won't help me deal with you. It's very simple. If you defeat me, you can take Ye Chen away.”Zhao Zheng looked at Tian Yangzi and said indifferently.
"Beat you? Is that true?" Tian Yangzi looked at Zhao Zheng and his eyes narrowed.
"Of course, but during the competition, I won't hold back. If your skills are inferior, you will die in my hands.”Zhao Zheng looked at Tian Yangzi and said.
"Young Master Zhao, you don't need to hold back. This old man is still very confident in his own strength.”Tian Yangzi looked at Zhao Zheng and said in a deep voice.
If Ling Donglai wasn't here, Tianyang Zi would definitely say that punches and kicks had no eyes, and he would kill Zhao Zheng if he wasn't careful. But now, Tianyang Zi didn't dare to say anything. He didn't even dare to seriously injure Zhao Zheng. Although Ling Donglai wasn't Zhao Zheng's master, he definitely had a close relationship with Zhao Zheng. Wasn't he courting death by killing Zhao Zheng in front of Ling Donglai?
In any case, there was still a long way to go. Ling Donglai could not stay with Zhao Zheng forever. As long as Ling Donglai left, he would seek revenge on Zhao Zheng.
As for whether he could defeat Zhao Zheng, Tian Yangzi did not consider it. He could even fight against ordinary peak great sects and even kill them with Feng Shui techniques. Zhao Zheng was only a late-stage martial grandmaster. How could he be his match?
………………
"Let's just treat this as the battle for the chief priest. Do you have any objections?”Zhao Zheng looked at Lin Hong, the chief constable of Six Fan School, who was silent.
"No, I haven't." Lin Hong immediately shook his head.
Although the competition between Zhao Zheng and Tian Yangzi was not in accordance with the rules of the competition for the Chief Exalt, the bigger fist was the rule. Since Zhao Zheng and Tian Yangzi did not have any objections, how could he dare to?
Besides, Zhao Zheng and Tian Yangzi would have a victor this time anyway. The winner would be the chief priest, which was also in line with the rules.
………………
"Where are we going to compete?" Tian Yangzi asked Zhao Zheng after Lin Hong finished speaking.
"There's an uninhabited area thirty miles away. Let's go there.”Zhao Zheng looked at Tian Yangzi and said indifferently.
"Alright." Tian Yangzi nodded.
"Let's go then."
After Zhao Zheng finished speaking, he leaped up and flew toward the uninhabited area 30 miles away.
When Tian Yangzi saw Zhao Zheng leave, he glanced at Ye Chen on the ground and followed behind Zhao Zheng.
…………
"Senior Ling, should we go and take a look?”After Zhao Zheng and the others flew away, Lin Hong also wanted to follow them, but when he saw Ling Donglai not moving at all, he immediately stopped and asked respectfully.
"There's no need. The outcome will be decided soon.”Ling Donglai shook his head.
"Senior Ling, who do you think will win?”Lin Hong asked curiously after hearing Ling Donglai's words.
"Young Master Zhao will win." Ling Donglai said faintly.
Ling Donglai was not a stupid person. When Zhao Zheng stopped him from revealing his identity, he knew that Zhao Zheng did not want his identity to be exposed, so he added a surname to Zhao Zheng's name this time.
"Impossible, my master will definitely win.”Ye Chen's expression changed when he heard Ling Donglai's words.
Tian Yangzi was his savior. How could he lose? He couldn't lose. Once he lost, he would die. If Tian Yangzi died, he would die too.
When Ling Donglai heard Ye Chen's shout, he glanced at Ye Chen and said nothing.
Lin Hong didn't say anything either. He was skeptical about Ling Dong's prediction that Zhao Zheng would win. It wasn't that he didn't trust Ling Donglai's judgment, but because Ling Donglai had a close relationship with Zhao Zheng, he would definitely side with Zhao Zheng.
If it was anyone else, it would be fine. The key was that Tian Yangzi's strength was not weaker than a peak martial grandmaster. He was a true existence standing at the top. Even though Zhao Zheng was a genius who had entered the late stage of the martial grandmaster realm at such a young age, he was not as experienced as Tian Yangzi because he was young. His strength should not be as strong as Tian Yangzi.
However, there was no absolute in the world. What if? Lin Hong didn't dare to say who would win and could only wait for the outcome.
