Young Mansion Master Duan Ling Tian of Azure Cloud Mansion? Isn’t he a weakling? How did he suddenly become so powerful?”

“Didn’t they say that the Super Saint Weapon, the Devilseal Tablet, was taken away from him by an Upper Province powerhouse? How did he reclaim it?”

“It has merely been a few years since he left the Lower Province for the Upper Province of Dao Martial Saint Land. Back then, he hadn’t even broken through to the First Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, right? Currently, he’s as strong as a powerhouse at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage!”

After confirming that the human powerhouse they saw killing their Boar Devil clan’s three Great Guardian Warriors in the mirror image was the Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion, the chiefs of the Black Boar Tribe and the Thunder Boar Tribe took a while to regain their senses.

The three Patriarchs were in the Lower Province after all, it was only natural that they did not know about the happenings in the Upper Province. Otherwise, they would not be in the dark.

Tales of Duan Ling Tian killing Xie Zong, an elder from Black Kshetra Sect, to reclaim the Super Saint Weapon, the Devilseal Tablet, was well-known in the Upper Province!

“I thought long and hard about this before I came to a shocking conclusion…” The chief of the Red Boar Tribe said with a frown.

“What is it?”

The chiefs of the Black Boar Tribe and the Thunder Boar Tribe turned to look at the chief of the Red Boar Tribe in curiosity when they heard his words.

“My guess is news about the Devilseal Tablet being snatched from Duan Ling Tian by someone from the Upper Province is fake information that the Azure Cloud Mansion released. They must have done it to divert attention away from Duan Ling Tian! After all, he has a target on his back as long as people know he has the Devilseal Tablet. The Azure Cloud Mansion might not be afraid of the people from the Lower Province, but there’s quite a number of powerhouses from the Upper Province who came to the Lower Province in search of the Devilseal Tablet.”

The chiefs of the Black Boar Tribe and the Thunder Boar Tribe nodded in agreement since the chief of the Red Boar Tribe’s words were reasonable.

“That’s possible!”

“That must be it!”

After a moment, the chief of the Thunder Boar Tribe seemed to have recalled something. He frowned before he cried out, “No! If I’m not mistaken, it has been less than ten years since news of the Devilseal Tablet being taken away from Duan Ling Tian by a powerhouse from the Upper Province appeared. How’s it possible that Duan Ling Tian’s strength has increased to the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage in less than ten years? Could he have hidden his true strength?” The chief of the Thunder Boar Tribe posted one question after another.

When the chiefs of the Black Boar Tribe and the Red Boar Tribe heard this, they frowned immediately.

“I’m confused.”

“Me too.”

Eventually, both of them shook their heads and expressed their confusion.

With a glint in his eyes, the chief of the Thunder Boar Tribe said, “The Azure Cloud Mansion is strange… From what I know, when the vanguard from the Human-Devil clan arrived at the Azure Cloud Mansion, more than half of the Human-Devils were killed. They only managed to deal with the Azure Cloud Mansion when their full troop arrived.”

The chief of the Red Boar Tribe nodded. “I heard that as well… Moreover, it seems like the Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion and another powerhouse single-handedly killed most of the vanguard from the Human-Devil clan. Even the direct disciple of the Palace Master of Great Spirit Palace from the Three Palaces and Six Halls was killed!”

“All of us assumed there are no strong human powerhouses in the Lower Province of Dao Martial Saint Land…

However, it seems like there are quite a few of them in the Azure Cloud Mansion! Even if it is our Boar-Devil clan, I’m not certain we would be able to take the Azure Cloud Mansion down back then!” The chief of the Black Boar Tribe said, “With Duan Ling Tian around, I’m afraid the Boar-Devil clan would have a hard time dealing with the Azure Cloud Mansion since the Old Patriarch is not with us!”

The chiefs from the Thunder Boar Tribe and the Red Boar Tribe strongly agreed with this statement from the chief of the Black Boar Tribe.

Three of them would never expect that Duan Ling Tian was also unaware of the whereabouts of the people from the Azure Cloud Mansion. He would not be able to help the Azure Cloud Mansion even if he wanted to.

“Should we reveal the fact that the Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion, Duan Ling Tian, is in the Lower Province and possesses the Super Saint Weapon, the Devilseal Tablet?” The chief of the Red Boar Tribe asked the chiefs of the Black Boar Tribe and the Thunder Boar Tribe for their opinion as he looked at them.

The chiefs of the Black Boar Tribe and the Thunder Boar Tribe exchanged a look before the chief of the Thunder Boar Tribe shook his head and finally said with a hint of wariness, “There’s no need to rush. Duan Ling Tian seems to have vanished after he killed our Boar-Devil clan’s three Great Guardian Warriors a year ago. If he didn’t attack the other Devil Clans, it’s not wise for us to expose him since he would be able to trace it back to us. It might attract his attention and he might vent his anger on us! This wouldn’t be good for the Boar-Devil clan!”

“It seems like we’re back to square one,” the chief of the Red Boar Tribe said with a bitter smile.

Previously, although they did not know the human powerhouse was the Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion, they had kept this matter close to their chests because they were afraid. Now that they discovered Duan Ling Tian’s identity, things still did not change. They were still afraid. After all, he was not just an ordinary powerhouse at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, he possessed the Super Saint Weapon, the Devilseal Tablet, that was able to suppress Devils.

All of a sudden, the chief of the Black Boar Tribe steered the conversation in a different direction. “Recently, I heard some rumors about the Wandering Saint Palace, one of the Human-Devil clan’s Three Palaces and Six Halls, acquiring a new Vice Palace Master who’s at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage! Most importantly, the Vice Palace Master’s name is also Duan Ling Tian!”

Although the Boar-Devil clan’s territory neighbored the Human-Devil clan’s territory, they rarely interacted since they belonged to different clans. The interaction between the clans had only increased recently due to their search for materials to repair the Inter-province Transportation Formation.

“The Human-devil clan’s Wandering Saint Palace has a new Vice Palace Master at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage who’s also called Duan Ling Tian? Could there be such a coincidence?” The chief of the Red Boar Tribe was stunned.

“I’m afraid it’s not a coincidence!” The chief of the Thunder Boar Tribe had lived the longest among the three, it was not a surprise that he was far wiser than the other two chiefs. He looked at the chief of the Black Boar Tribe and asked, “Do you know anything about the new Vice Palace Master of Wandering Saint Palace? Was he an elder before he was appointed as a Vice Palace Master or did he just join the Wandering Saint Palace?”

The chief of the Black Boar Tribe replied, “He only joined the Wandering Saint Palace a year ago.”

“He only joined the Wandering Saint Palace a year ago?” The expression of the chief of the Thunder Boar Tribe changed dramatically. His eyes widened as something appeared in his mind. “People from the Wandering Saint Palace are pure humans. They’re Devil Cultivators. If he’s not pure human, the Wandering Saint Palace won’t let him join even if he’s an Eminent Celestial!”

The chief of the Thunder Boar Tribe began to say, “A human whose name is Duan Ling Tian… I think…”

However, before the chief of the Thunder Boar Tribe finished speaking, the chief of the Red Boar Tribe interrupted him. “Do you suspect that the new Vice Palace Master of Wandering Saint Palace is the Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion and the person who killed the three Great Guardian Warriors?”

Yes!” The chief of the Thunder Boar Tribe nodded and said solemnly, “A year ago, he killed our Boar-Devil clan’s three Great Guardian Warriors…At the same time, the Wandering Saint Palace gained a new Vice Palace Master! Do you honestly think this is a coincidence?”

After a while, the chief of the Thunder Boar Tribe spoke again. He became more and more convinced as he said, “I think the Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion, Duan Ling Tian, appeared a year ago to infiltrate the Human-Devil clan’s Wandering Saint Palace! He must have passed by our Boar-Devil clan during his journey there and killed the three Great Guardian Warriors!”

The chief of the Black Boar Tribe’s eyes turned cold as he said in a low voice, “Now that I listened to you, this seems very likely!”

“However, how did Duan Ling Tian join the Wandering Saint Palace? Based on his attacks that we saw from the mirror image, it’s obvious that he’s not a Devil Cultivator,” the chief of the Red Boar Tribe asked in confusion.

The chief of the Thunder Boar Tribe replied, “Do you think it’s hard for a human powerhouse whose strength is at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage to disguise themselves as a Devil Cultivator?”

The chief of the Red Boar Tribe was speechless as realization dawned on him. Since he was at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, he knew what powerhouses at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage were capable of.

“I’m fairly certain the new Vice Palace Master of Wandering Saint Palace is the Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion, Duan Ling Tian! Moreover, those in Wandering Saint Palace are probably still unaware of this!” The chief of the Thunder Boar Tribe said with conviction as his eyes shone.

“I’ve also heard the new Vice Palace Master of Wandering Saint Palace has entered closed-door cultivation not long after he joined the Wandering Saint Palace a year ago. For this reason, not many people have seen him. It’s not a surprise that no one from the Wandering Saint Palace has found out about his true identity. Only a handful of people from Wandering Saint Palace have seen him.”

A sinister smile crept unto the face of the chief of the Thunder Boar Tribe as he said, “If that’s the case, let’s give the Wandering Saint Palace a hand! Let’s think of a way to let the people from the Wandering Saint Palace see the portrait of the Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion.”

The chief of the Red Boar Tribe applauded when he heard this. “Good one!”

“Amazing!” The eyes of Black Boar Tribe’s chief lit up as he said, “Let’s do this!”
