Although Tian Dong was not shocked like Dong Lin and the few Enforcement Hall's Bronze Flame Elders watching by the side, his gaze had changed when he looked at Duan Ling Tian. He was not unfamiliar with the name Duan Ling Tian since he had heard about the things he had done after he entered the Fire Worship Sect. Moreover, like most of the Silver Flame Elders in the Fire Worship Sect, he had thought about accepting him as his direct disciple. However, he dismissed this idea when he learned that Duan Ling Tian had a master who was a sectless cultivator and he would not accept another master unless he obtained permission from his master.
This news had long been circulating among the high-ranking officials in the Fire Worship Sect, that was why he knew about all of it.
"Duan Ling Tian, how dare you?!" Dong Lin said loudly when he regained his senses, "You know who Elder Tian Dong is, yet you still addressed him by his name. How dare you be so disrespectful to him?!"
