War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

“You have no choice but to do as we say.”

Chu Han fell silent upon hearing Duan Ling Tian’s words. Indeed, he was in no position to refuse or negotiate since he was at their mercy. After a moment, he said grimly, “I hope you keep your promise.”

Chu Han no longer dared to underestimate Duan Ling Tian just because Duan Ling Tian was an advanced god. After all, ordinary rudimentary Kings of Gods were no match for Duan Ling Tian. With that, he relinquished his Spatial Ring and mediocre divine artifact and handed them to Duan Ling Tian.

After receiving Chu Han’s Spatial Ring, Duan Ling Tian dripped a drop of his blood on the ring to claim ownership over it. He went through what was inside, ignoring the divine rocks. As a disciple of an inner elder of an emperor-rank sect, it was not surprising that Chu Han possessed a lot of divine rocks.

Nonetheless, he was not interested in them since he had more divine rocks than Chu Han. His divine rocks were comparable to those of a king-rank force.

Previously, the king-rank Zhong clan from Skywind City had compensated Duan Ling Tian with a huge number of divine rocks that numbered in the millions. Additionally, he already had some divine rocks in his possession. Hence, he was not lacking in divine rocks. Even some of the inner elders of the

Hidden Fog Sect, who were advanced Kings of Gods, did not have as many divine rocks as him.

“There are no Auspicious Pills…’ Duan Ling Tian was slightly disappointed. In fact, he only wanted Chu Han’s Spatial Ring to check for Auspicious Pills. After all, he only needed one more Auspicious Pill to break through and become a rudimentary King of Gods.

“You’re really poor,” Duan Ling Tian said as he weighed the Spatial Ring in his hand. Then, he tossed the Spatial Ring and the mediocre divine artifact back to Chu Han.

Chu Han was stunned and puzzled by Duan Ling Tian’s actions.

“You can have your things back, I renege on our promise,” Duan Ling Tian said nonchalantly.

Chu Han’s eyes narrowed. Just as he was about to raise his hand to catch his things, Duan Ling Tian made a move.

Whoosh!

A mediocre divine sword appeared, releasing sword rays formed from spatial energy. In just a moment, Chu Han was caught off guard so he did not even have time to resist.

Due to Duan Ling Tian’s 99 Heavenly Veins, Duan Ling Tian could mobilize his Divine Energy at a much greater speed.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

“You tricked me!” Chu Han’s thunderous voice that was filled with despair rang in the air. Before he could even mobilize his Divine Energy, he was turned into a mist of blood like his junior brother by the terrifying spatial energy.

‘Wu Feng was shocked when he saw Duan Ling Tian killing Chu Han in just a blink of an eye. Initially, he had been worried that Duan Ling Tian’s decision to spare Chu Han would bring them trouble in the future. It was only at this moment that he realized Duan Ling Tian was only deceiving Chu Han. Duan

Ling Tian only wanted to go through Chu Han’s possession before killing Chu Han.

When Wu Feng regained his senses, he gave Duan Ling Tian a thumbs-up as he said, “Junior Brother Duan, you’re amazing! It would cost us a lot of time and energy to kill him if you didn’t trick him! In the end, you even managed to kill him with just a move!”

Duan Ling Tian smiled sheepishly as he said, “Senior Brother Wu, I just wanted to see if he had any Auspicious Pills in his Spatial Ring. Alas, he didn’t even have one.”

Duan Ling Tian collected Chu Han’s Spatial Ring again as he shook his head and said, “I’m willing to trade everything in his Spatial Ring for just one Auspicious Pill.”

‘Wu Feng’s eyes widened in surprise. “Junior Brother Duan, you only need one more Auspicious Pill to become a rudimentary King of Gods?”

Duan Ling Tian nodded. There was no need to keep this matter a secret.

“No wonder you were willing to trade a mediocre divine artifact for two Auspicious Pills with me back then!” Wu Feng exclaimed.

Duan Ling Tian’s eyes narrowed imperceptibly when the two Auspicious Pills were mentioned. Then, he shook his head and said, “Senior Brother Wu, I didn’t consume those two Auspicious Pills. Otherwise, I wouldve already become a rudimentary King of Gods.”

‘Wu Feng was puzzled. “Why didn’t you consume them? Did you give them away?”

“No.” Duan Ling Tian shook his head. “They were robbed from me.”

“Robbed?” Wu Feng was stunned. “In the sect?”

Duan Ling Tian nodded.

‘Wu Feng’s expression darkened. “Who has the audacity to do such a thing? Junior Brother Duan, since you’re a core disciple, the sect will definitely seek justice for you if you make a complaint. I’m sure our sect leader will help you.”

“Senior Brother Wu, the person who robbed is Shangguan Xiong Feng. Do you still think the sect will help me regain those two pills?” Duan Ling Tian asked.

‘Wu Feng’s expression changed upon hearing Duan Ling Tian mention Shangguan Xiong Feng.

Shangguan Xiong Feng was an intermediate King of Gods who was a core disciple. Moreover, he was one of the three strongest core disciples and was stronger than most of the Hidden Fog Sect’s inner elders. Most importantly, his master was a Supreme Elder of the Hidden Fog Sect, one of the

highest-ranking officials in the sect. It was no secret that Supreme Elder Feng treated him like a grandson.

“Senior… Shangguan Xiong Feng robbed you of the Auspicious Pills?” Wu Feng instinctively addressed Shangguan Xiong Feng as senior out of habit, but when he recalled Shangguan Xiong Feng’s actions, he forcibly changed the way he addressed Shangguan Xiong Feng.

Duan Ling Tian nodded.

“Why?” Wu Feng was puzzled. “As an intermediate King of Gods, he has no need for the pills at all.”

Duan Ling Tian’s eyes flashed coldly as he said, “In the past, Supreme Elder Lei wanted to accept me as a disciple so he sent Shi Tong Ming to speak to me, but I refused him. As a result, I offended Supreme Elder Le’’s first disciple, Long Xiao. I heard that Shangguan Xiong Feng has a good relationship with

Long Xiao. So I suspect it has something to do with Long Xiao. I confirmed my suspicion when Long Xiao looked for me and told me to kneel and kowtow for 10 miles to beg his master to accept me as a disciple. If I do that, he promised he would return me the two Auspicious Pills.”

“I see.” Wu Feng’s expression darkened even more after listening to Duan Ling Tian’s explanation. “Junior Brother Duan, previously, you said you had to leave the sect due to urgent matters. Did it have anything to do with this? It was during the time when you went to King Descending City and met Linghu

Chu Yin who resembles your wife.”

Duan Ling Tian nodded. “That’s right. After Long Xiao looked for me, I had perfunctorily agreed to consider his request. However, I left the sect after that. In fact, I only plan to return once I become a rudimentary King of Gods.”

Wu Feng said gloomily, “Junior Brother Duan, Long Xiao and Shangguan Xiong Feng are intermediate Kings of Gods, and they’re quite strong. In fact, they’re comparable to ordinary advanced Kings of Gods. This is especially true for Shangguan Xiong Feng. Are you confident you’ll be able to defend

yourself even after becoming a rudimentary King of Gods? Otherwise, it’s best that you wait until you become an intermediate King of Gods before returning to the Hidden Fog Sect.”

“Tm not afraid of them even if I’m just a rudimentary King of Gods,” Duan Ling Tian said confidently, “What I’m worried about is their masters. It won’t matter if I’m a rudimentary or intermediate King of Gods if their masters make a move against me.”

The confident expression on Duan Ling Tian’s face was replaced with one of fear when he spoke about Supreme Elder Feng and Supreme Elder Lei.

Upon hearing these words, Wu Feng shook his head and said, “Junior Brother Feng, you’re overthinking things. Although the two Supreme Elders favor their disciples, it’s impossible for them to act excessively. As long as you have strength comparable to Long Xiao, it won’t be easy for the two Supreme

Elders to make a move against you. Don’t forget that we still have another two Supreme Elders in the Hidden Fog Sect. I know you don’t intend to accept a master, but you don’t mind being a nominal disciple, right? With your potential, it won’t be difficult for one of the two Supreme Elders to accept you..”
