War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

Duan Ling Tian understood the intentions and meanings of the elders from the Linghu clan. He was rather surprised by their persistence. These elders who insisted on him keeping the divine crystals were completely different from before when they reprimanded Linghu Ren Jie for allowing him to stay in the chamber of laws for so long.

Seeing that Duan Ling Tian was still reluctant, the elders changed their target to Linghu Ren Jie. One after another, they sent Voice Transmissions to Linghu Ren Jie.

“Clan leader, it’s our fault for being ignorant back then and looking down on Duan Ling Tian. Please persuade him to accept the divine crystals.”

“Ren Jie, we’ll feel uneasy if Duan Ling Tian doesn’t accept the divine crystals.”

The elders who had reprimanded and threatened Linghu Ren Jie in the past pleaded with him at this moment.

Linghu Ren Jie sighed inwardly when he heard the Voice Transmissions. He naturally knew the elders’ change in attitude was due to Duan Ling Tian becoming a member of the Pure Yang Sect. The elders hoped that they would benefit from having a good relationship with Duan Ling Tian. However, in all honesty, he would have preferred it if the Linghu clan accepted the divine crystals so that there would be no ties between Duan Ling Tian and the Linghu clan. However, his heart could not help but soften when he thought about how the elders were only looking out for the Linghu clan.

Finally, Linghu Ren Jie smiled and said, “Duan Ling Tian, just take them back. Consider it a congratulatory gift from the Linghu clan on joining the Pure Yang Sect after you repaid the debt. As Elder Qi, you’re the first person from the Linghu clan to join the Pure Yang Sect. You deserve such a gift.”

At the same, Linghu Ren Jie also sent a Voice Transmission to Duan Ling Tian. “Duan Ling Tian, I know you must have realized the elders’ intentions. They hope to benefit from you in the future. They might ask for your help during critical moments. I’m afraid they’ll come up with tricks if you don’t accept the divine crystals. You should just accept them. I’ll keep an eye on them and make sure they don’t trouble you in the future…”

Duan Ling Tian could hear the helplessness in Linghu Ren Jie’s voice. He knew the elders from the Linghu clan had to be pressuring him/ Hence, he said, “Very well. Then, I’ll accept the gift. I’ll remember that I used to be in the clan.”

The elders, who had been waiting for these words, laughed joyfully when they heard Duan Ling Tian’s words. Then, they thanked and congratulated Duan Ling Tian one after another.

“Duan Ling Tian, congratulations on joining the Pure Yang Sect.”

“Duan Ling Tian, you’re the pride of our Linghu clan!”

“If only my son is half as capable as you, I’ll be laughing every day!”

As Duan Ling Tian put the divine crystals away, the elders spoke to him enthusiastically. Although he felt that the elders’ attitude change was quite drastic and materialistic, he also understood where they were coming from. Perhaps, if he were in their shoes, he would have done the same thing as well. Similar to Linghu Ren Jie, despite the elders’ selfishness, he knew the elders were only doing this for the sake of the Linghu clan. Moreover, if the Linghu clan prospered, their descendants would also naturally have a better time.

Meanwhile, Zhen Ping Fan, the Nirvanic Elder from the Pure Yang Sect, shook his head as he looked at the elders of the Linghu clan. Initially, he had been looking forward to the scene of Duan Ling Tian ruthlessly rejecting the elders of the Linghu clan. Who knew the elders would remain undeterred when faced with rejection? Not only that, but they were still so enthusiastic after being refused and continued to curry favor with Duan Ling Tian.

Zhen Ping Fang spent most of his time on cultivation. Hence, he did not have much contact with people. In this regard, he was not as experienced as his junior nephew, Qin Wu Yang. Perhaps, due to his experience, he was filled with curiosity about people. Currently, he felt like his worldview had changed after he watched the elders of the Linghu clan.

On the other hand, Qin Wu Yang’s expression remained calm. It was as though he had long guessed the outcome.

At this time, Duan Ling Tian said to Linghu Ren Jie through Voice Transmission, “Clan Leader, I have something I need to speak to you about. Please make the arrangements for the two elders from the Pure Yang Sect first.”

After that, Duan Ling Tian sent a Voice Transmission to Zhen Ping Fan and Qin Wu Yang respectively to ask for their opinions.

Qin Wu Yang agreed immediately.

Zhen Ping Fan, who felt there was no point staying in the hall after seeing the outcome, did not have any objections as well.

“Elders, you may leave now. I still have something to speak to Duan Ling Tian about,” Linghu Ren Jie, who was now the Clan Leader of the Linghu clan again, said.

Upon hearing Linghu Ren Jie’s words, the elders looked at Duan Ling Tian reluctantly before they left one after another.

Then, Linghu Ren Jie asked, “Three Supreme Elders, may I trouble you to arrange the accommodation for the two elders of the Pure Yang Sect?” Then, he said to Zhen Ping Fan and Qin Wu Yang, “Elders, if you need anything, we’ll do our best to fulfill your requests.”

After that, Linghu Zhen Xing, Linghu Huan, and Linghu Heng led Zhen Ping Fan and Qin Wu Yang away.

When only Linghu Ren Jie and Duan Ling Tian were the only ones left in the hall, Linghu Ren Jie said with a sigh, “Duan Ling Tian, I really didn’t expect you to join the Pure Yang Sect in just a few decades after you left the clan…”

Duan Ling Tian smiled. “Sect leader, you must be joking. From what I know, your sister is not just an ordinary Emperor of Gods. Perhaps, her status would be even higher than a Nirvanic Elder if she joins the Pure Yang Sect. Hence, compared to the elders, you shouldn’t be so impressed, right?”

Linghu Ren Jie was surprised. After all, before his sister left, she had specifically told him not to tell Duan Ling Tian about her, including the fact that she was an Emperor of Gods. He did not expect Duan Ling Tian to be privy to the matter.

“Clan leader, why didn’t you tell me when the Black Dragon Elder tried to assassinate you?” Duan Ling Tian asked solemnly. This matter still bothered him since he had put Linghu Ren Jie in danger.

Linghu Ren Jie smiled wryly. “You know about that as well? I didn’t tell you because I didn’t want you to worry. Moreover, I’m fine now, right? By the way, how do you know that my sister is an Emperor of Gods?”

Duan Ling Tian replied, “Vice Sect Leader Xue Ming Zhi of the Flying Dragon Sect told me about it. After killing the Black Dragon Elder, your sister came to the Flying Dragon Sect and taught Xue Ming Zhi a lesson. She caused a huge commotion at the time and broke the sect’s Guarding Formation. Even a Nirvanic Elder might not be capable of such a feat.”

Based on her action, Duan Ling Tian suspected that Linghu Ren Feng was an intermediate Emperor of Gods at least.

“Xue Ming Zhi?” Linghu Ren Jie frowned. He did not expect the other party to expose his sister.

“He’s dead,” Duan Ling Tian suddenly said.

“Dead?” Linghu Ren Jie was stunned. Then, he recalled the way the two elders from the Pure Yang Sect had treated Duan Ling Tian. How could a Vice Sect Leader of the Flying Dragon Sect compare to the two elders from the Pure Yang Sect?

Duan Ling Tian’s expression remained solemn as he asked, “Clan leader, where’s your sister now?”

“Do you want to ask her about Chu Yin?” Linghu Ren Jie asked.

“Yes.” Duan Ling Tian nodded. He could not let the matter go until he obtained an answer.

“After leaving the Flying Dragon Sect, she left the Profound Energy Land with Chu Yin to the Realm Battlefield,” Linghu Ren Jie said.

Duan Ling Tian’s expression changed slightly upon hearing these words.

“I’ve already asked her about Chu Yin’s resemblance to your wife…” Linghu Ren Jie said.

Duan Ling Tian’s expression turned eager as he looked at Linghu Ren Jie. “What did she say?”

“Chu Yin isn’t your wife,” Linghu Ren Jie said straightforwardly.

“She’s not?” The excitement on Duan Ling Tian’s face vanished, and his eyes dimmed. After a moment, he asked skeptically, “How’s that possible? There are too many coincidences… Clan leader, are you sure she said Linghu Chu Yin isn’t my wife?”

“I’m sure,” Linghu Ren Jie replied with a nod. He was not aware that he was frowning at this moment and that he looked as though he was hesitating to speak.

Upon seeing this, Duan Ling Tian asked, “Clan leader, are you hiding something from me?”

Faced with Duan Ling Tian’s burning gaze and anxious expression, Linghu Ren Jie sighed and said, “Although Chu Yin’s not your wife, I heard a bit of your wife’s situation…”

“You heard about her situation?” Duan Ling Tian was stunned.

‘What happened to Ke’er?’

Duan Ling Tian took a deep breath trying to suppress the ominous feeling that rose in his heart.
