War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

“It’s a pity that the Saint Girl has been defiled by someone in the Lower Province. If that person appears and finds out about this matter, he would be furious and vent his anger on me. It seems like the Saint Girl is not just his cousin…” Tang Xuan muttered to himself after Duan Ling Tian left. A hint of fear toward ‘that person’ could be seen in his eyes. “If it’s not for this matter, I would’ve introduced Duan Ling Tian to him… I don’t even know if I can preserve my life now, how can I possibly introduce Duan Ling Tian to that person?” Tang Xuan sighed. He shook his head helplessly before he returned to his cultivation place.

No one was around to hear Tang Xuan’s words. If they heard his words, they would be shocked. Who was ‘that person’ that he could elicit such fear and dread from Tang Xuan who had already broken through to the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage?

Previously, the commotion Duan Ling Tian and Hong Yun caused when they were fighting was so great that even Gan Ru Yan who was living with Tang Xuan heard it.

“It’s quiet now?” Gan Ru Yan said when she could no longer hear anything.

“N-Nothing happened to Young Master, right?” Ke’er who was extremely beautiful had a worried expression on her face. She had heard the commotion as well. She knew it had something to do with Duan Ling Tian, and she could not help but worry.

“Don’t worry.” Gan Ru Yan quickly consoled Ke’er. “The fact that Sect Leader has personally invited him to return shows that he’s important. Nothing will happen to him!” Despite her words, she thought to herself, ‘Nothing will happen to him unless his identity is revealed.’

Previously, when Tang Xuan had looked for Gan Ru Yan and interrogated her about the identity of her sister’s man, she could see how furious he was. If the sect leader found out her sister’s man was Duan Ling Tian, he would flay Duan Ling Tian alive even if he did not kill him.

Naturally, Ke’er did not know about this. For this reason, she felt reassured when she heard Gan Ru Yan’s words. However, she longed to reunite with the man whom she had sworn to give her life to. Not only did she long to reunite with her man, but she could not wait to introduce her daughter to Duan Ling Tian as well. She had been wishing for this in the past years.

When Duan Ling Tian descended on the Saint Island, word of his return to the Fire Worship Sect and him defeating Lu Qing, the Sanctum Leader of White Tiger Sanctum, when he passed through the White Tiger Sanctum had spread to the Four Symbols Sanctums. It spread extremely quickly to the Azure Dragon Sanctum, the Vermilion Bird Sanctum, and the Black Turtle Sanctum.

“It has only been a few years but Duan Ling Tian’s already strong enough to defeat the Sanctum Leader of White Tiger Sanctum?”

“Is this true? Why do I feel like it has been exaggerated?”

“I find this hard to believe as well. The Sanctum Leader of White Tiger Sanctum is a Golden Flame Elder in our Fire Worship Sect. All Golden Flame Elders in the Fire Worship Sect are at the Fifth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage!”

“If this is true, does this mean Duan Ling Tian’s strength is stronger or comparable to a powerhouse at the Sixth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage?!”

“My goodness! What did Senior Brother Duan Ling Tian go through in these few years? How did he become so strong?!” The conversations In the Azure Dragon Sanctum and the Vermilion Bird Sanctum revolved around Duan Ling Tian.

As for the Black Turtle Sanctum, it was even noisier.

“As expected of a disciple from our Black Turtle Sanctum! It has been only a few years and Senior Brother Duan Ling Tian is already strong enough to defeat a Golden Flame Elder!”

“Based on Senior Brother Duan Ling Tian’s progress, who else, apart from Lord Sect Leader, would be able to defeat him in a few years’ time?”

“Amazing! Senior Brother Duan Ling Tian is amazing! To think the Sanctum Leader of White Tiger Sanctum was thrown to the ground!”

When the disciples from Black Turtle Sanctum learned about Duan Ling Tian defeating the Sanctum Leader of White Tiger Sanctum when he returned, they were overwhelmed by emotions. It was as though they were the ones who had defeated the Sanctum Leader of White Tiger Sanctum.

In the Black Turtle Sanctum…

Elder Guo Xiong who was quite close to Duan Ling Tian was shocked when he heard the news. He only regained his senses after a long time. “It has only been a few years and he has grown so strong?”
