“Senior Feng Qing Yang?” Duan Ling Tian raised an eyebrow as he studied Chen Yi Ru. He saw a hint of reverence in Chen Yi Ru’s eyes. However, he could tell the reverence he felt was not directed toward him. For this reason, he finally realized Chen Yi Ru had changed his mind and sworn on the lightning penalty oath without any hesitation due to Feng Qing Yang.

When Chen Yi Ru’s two followers saw their master acknowledging Duan Ling Tian as his master, they quickly came over and bowed at Duan Ling Tian. “Greetings, master!” Their lord’s master was, naturally, their master as well.

Unfortunately, Duan Ling Tian did not even look at them. He turned to Ke’er, Duan Si Ling, and Gan Ru Yan before he said with a slight smile on his face, “Let’s go to the Fire Worship Sect!” He did not wait for their replies before he lifted his hand and used an invisible force to bring them along with him. They traveled to the western region of the Upper Province like an explosive shell fired from a mortar!

Swoosh!

Although Duan Ling Tian did not use any movement Divine Ability, his speed was comparable to Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestials just by using his internal force that had been raised by his assist-type Divine Ability, the Elementary Devouring Tactic. In just a blink of an eye, Duan Ling Tian had turned into a black dot in the distance.

When Chen Yi Ru saw this, he said, “Let’s go!” He brought the skinny and burly middle-aged men with him as he rushed to catch up to Duan Ling Tian. As he moved, he cast various kinds of movement techniques, but his speed was only on par with Duan Ling Tian’s speed.

Duan Si Ling had an excited expression on her face as she gesticulated wildly. “Daddy, you were so amazing earlier! That old man is so strong, and yet, you defeated him so easily. Moreover, he even willingly acknowledged you as his master!” She was so excited that it seemed as though she was the one who had accomplished this feat.

Although Ke’er did not say anything, her eyes were filled with awe as well.

“Si Ling, if you cultivate diligently, you’ll be as strong as me in the future.” Duan Ling Tian smiled as he patted Duan Si Ling’s head. Although he was used to the adoration from his daughter and his wife, he still enjoyed it very much.

Meanwhile, Gan Ru Yan stared at the happy family with a hint of disappointment. She felt like she did not belong here. ‘In just a few years, his strength has improved so much…’ She suddenly remembered the time when the purple-clad young man was helpless and insignificant when faced with her. At that time, he could only look at her helplessly and unwillingly as she took her sister, his wife, away from him. Currently, his strength had far surpassed hers. Perhaps, in his eyes now, she was also an insignificant person. After a while, her thoughts drifted again. ‘Is he planning to return to the Fire Worship Sect to look for Sect Leader Tang and avenge Elder Huo?’

Gan Ru Yan would never expect that Duan Ling Tian was not only going to seek revenge for Elder Huo from Tang Xuan, but he also planned to annihilate the Fire Worship Sect now that he found out he was the successor of the Fog Rain Progeny, the First Absolute of the Seven Absolutes, and the Sect Leader of Seven Absolutes Sect. The position of Sect Leader of the Seven Absolutes Sect came with a huge responsibility. He had decided that before he ascended, he was going to annihilate the three great sects in the Upper Province to avenge the disciples from Seven Absolute Sects. He was going to make sure no traces were left of the three great sects in the mundane realm.

Gan Ru Yan continued thinking to herself, ‘I really didn’t expect him to be the successor of the Fog Rain Progeny and the Sect Leader of the Seven Absolutes Sect!’ She was in shock when Duan Ling Tian told them about this. In fact, initially, she had thought he was joking with them. She only completely believed him when she heard him responding to Chen Yi Ru earlier when Chen Yi Ru asked if his sword technique was from Sword Saint Feng Qing Yang. She was even more convinced when she saw the previously hesitant Chen Yi Ru acknowledging him as his master.

‘Previously, rumors were going around saying that he had joined the Fire Worship Sect as a spy… Could it be true?’ After a while, she shook her head, dismissing the thought. ‘No. He joined the sect for Ke’er. There’s no reason for him to join the Fire Worship Sect even if he’s the Sect Leader of the Seven Absolutes Sect.’

Many thoughts flashed through Gan Ru Yan’s mind at this moment. ‘If my master and those in the sect find out that he’s the successor to the Fog Rain Progeny and the Sect Leader of the Seven Absolutes Sect, they would definitely be shocked. All of them will be out of his blood when they find out about this. However, with his current strength, I don’t think there’s any need for him to fear anyone. I wonder if our sect has any Bodiless Celestial?’

Gan Ru Yan had learned about Bodiless Celestials when she was in the Fire Worship Sect. However, she was not certain if there were any Bodiless Celestials in the sect. “If the sect has Bodiless Celestials, I wonder how strong they are? If they’re stronger, I’m afraid…’ She did not dare to continue her line of thought.

After Duan Ling Tian and Chen Yi Ru had left…

A few figures could be seen crawling out from underneath the rubbles. All of them had a look of terror on their faces. Earlier, they did not even have time to react when the shockwave from the saber ray had crashed over them. Due to their strength and luck, they did not die in this place like many others did. These people were not in the vicinity of the battle earlier so they did not know about Duan Ling Tian and Chen Yi Ru.

“This…” They were shocked when they took in the sight before them. The city was in ruins. No buildings were left standing. Everything had turned into rubble. Everywhere they looked, miles and miles of desolate land and rubble were the only things to be seen.

“What happened?”

“I…I’ve no idea!”

“That saber ray… destroyed the entire city!”

“Who did this? Was it a powerhouse at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage or an Eminent Celestial?”

“No way! Even an Eminent Celestial isn’t capable of this feat. I’ve read an ancient book that described the strength of an Eminent Celestial. They’re definitely not capable of this level of destruction unless a dozen of them joined forces and unleashed the attack.”

‘More than a dozen of Eminent Celestials? Impossible. It’s rare to even see one Eminent Celestial. How can there be a dozen?”

To many survivors in the city, what had happened would remain a mystery forever. However, they were certain the cause of the destruction of the city was not nature. It was done by humans.

However, who was so powerful? None of them had the answer to this. They were unaware that the person who destroyed the city was Chen Yi Ru, a Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestial!

Chen Yi Ru’s Cleansing World Saber was an attack that did not distinguish between friends and foes. It had swept out and killed those within 1,000 meters radius before it continued to sweep out and destroy the city. In fact, there were almost no survivors within a few thousand meters radius. Those who were further away and were stronger had better luck.

Therefore, other than Duan Ling Tian and Chen Yi Ru’s groups, no one knew about the battle between Duan Ling Tian and Chen Yi Ru. If they kept this between them, this would remain a mystery forever.

Currently, Duan Ling Tian, Chen Yi Ru, and the others were making their way to the western region of the Upper Province.

Swoosh!

As soon as Duan Ling Tian felt the effect from the assist-type Divine Ability weakening, he would cast it again to replenish and increase the strength of his Celestial Origin Energy so his strength would be at its peak at all times. For this reason, he was traveling at an incredibly fast speed. After repeatedly casting the Elementary Devouring Tactic, he discovered that by continuously casting it, it was draining his spiritual energy. If he had only cast it a few times, it did not consume too much spiritual energy.

For this reason, Duan Ling Tian stopped casting the assist-type Divine Ability, the Elementary Devouring Tactic, and slowed down. He murmured to himself, ‘It’s fine this way. It just so happens that I have some questions for him!”
