Duan Ling Tian was, naturally, unaware of what was happening in the Divine Offering Land or Ke'er's intention to enter the Realm Battlefield that was fraught with danger to grow stronger in order to defy her fate. If he had known about this, he would have been extremely worried and wished for a pair of wings that could bring him to the Divine Offering Land to stop Ke'er!
After a month of traveling through space, Duan Ling Tian and Tang Xiao Xiao finally returned to the Coste Galaxy. Previously, it had taken them three months to travel to the Milky Way where earth was located from the Coste Galaxy even though Duan Ling Tian had traveled at top speed. However, it had only taken him a month this time because he had fully comprehended the Thirteen Green Lotus Swords. Currently, his strength was comparable to a Golden Celestial in the Devata Realms.
"I wonder if the people of this galaxy have forgotten us?" Tang Xiao Xiao wondered out loud as they made their way to the Interstellar Transportation Formation in Planet Sattel, the home planet of the Coste Galaxy. Previously, when they were besieged by the 18 Disaster-level Battleships that were dispatched by the Granier family in the Coste Galaxy, the scene was broadcasted throughout the Coste Galaxy. She knew about it being broadcasted through her Divine Consciousness.
As soon as Duan Ling Tian and Tang Xiao Xiao arrived near the Interstellar Transportation Formation, many people were instantly alerted. They clearly had not forgotten about Duan Ling Tian and Tang Xiao. All of them were terrified as though Duan Ling Tian and Tang Xiao Xiao were some horrifying beasts.
"Aren't those two the cultivators who came a few months ago?"
"Oh, no! Why are they here again?"
"Why did they come back? What do they want?"
"It seems like they haven't forgotten about us." Tang Xiao Xiao smiled indifferently.
One of the people from the Coste Galaxy who was nearby happened to overhear Tang Xiao Xiao's words and could not help but smile bitterly. How could this female cultivator be surprised that they had not been forgotten? What a joke! Let alone a few months, even if a few years had passed, they still would not forget these two cultivators. After all, the male cultivator had destroyed a Disaster-level Battleship and was unaffected even after he was bombarded by attacks from seventeen Disaster-level Battleships! It was the first time such a terrifying cultivator had appeared in the Coste Galaxy. The incident from a few months ago had been recorded in history and that man was referred to as a god-like man.
Everyone in the surroundings sighed in relief when they saw Duan Ling Tian and Tang Xiao Xiao disappearing into the Interstellar Transportation Formation.
"As it turns out, they're merely passing by. I was truly frightened earlier."
"Yes! When they were around, I didn't even dare to breathe."
Duan Ling Tian and Tang Xiao Xiao's reappearance had caused a sensation in the Coste Galaxy. The inhabitants only calmed down when they discovered the two cultivators were merely passing by.
Based on this, one could see how much the inhabitants of the Coste Galaxy feared Duan Ling Tian.
Naturally, Duan Ling Tian was unaware of all this. Even if he was aware of it, he would not have felt proud. After all, the galaxy was only an SS-class technological civilization. Galaxies that were ruled by technology were ranked into classes; they were divided into SSS, SS, S, A, B, and C classes.
The Milky Way belonged to the A-class since the most advanced civilization in the Milky Way was only in the A-class. It was two classes behind the Coste Galaxy! Not to mention that his strength had improved after completely mastering the Thirteen Green Lotus Swords, even if it did not, he was still not afraid of SSS-class galaxies that were ruled by technology. How could he be afraid of a mere Coste Galaxy? Previously, even Apocalypse-level Battleships that were stronger than Disaster-level Battleships were of no threat to him, now that he had gotten even stronger, they were even more inconsequential.
As they traveled through a few Interstellar Transportation Formations, Tang Xiao Xiao said, "Duan Ling Tian, we'll pass by the Thousand Opportunities Galaxy where Tang Sect is located when we make our way to the Beyond Heaven Secret Zone. I wish to return to the sect to visit my old ancestor and return the star chart to him."
Duan Ling Tian nodded. "Sure. Since it's on the way, I'll accompany you to Tang Sect."
It did not take long before they arrived in the Thousand Opportunities Galaxy where Tang Sect was located. The Interstellar Transportation Formation they had just exited was located on Planet Shu Tang, the home planet of the Thousand Opportunities Galaxy.
Tang Xiao Xiao was excited to be home. However, her excitement did not last long. When she met Tang Chong, the Sect Leader of Tang Sect, she learned about an incident in the sect. She began to cry. Her tears streamed down her beautiful face as she said in a trembling voice, "The old ancestor has died?"
Tang Zhong Yi, the Supreme Elder of Tang Sect, had died!
"What happened?" Duan Ling Tian asked. He noticed the anger in Tang Chong's eyes as he broke the news to Tang Xiao Xiao.
Tang Chong replied with a bitter smile on his face, "A Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial from the Heavenly Wave Mansion killed Elder Yi! Their reason was the Tang Sect had led the Heavenly Wave Mansion on before they broke off the engagement. It was a punishment! I didn't think that old fart from the Heavenly Wave Mansion would personally make a move." His voice was filled with anger and dissatisfaction when he spoke. Nevertheless, there was nothing he could do since the culprit was a Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial!
After Tang Chong finished speaking, Duan Ling Tian saw Tang Xiao Xiao, who had been crying so hard that her eyes had turned bloodshot, looked at him with killing intent shining in her eyes. Naturally, her killing intent was not directed at him, but at the Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial from the Heavenly Wave Mansion! She said through gritted teeth with a frenzied expression on her face, "Duan Ling Tian, help me kill him! If you kill him, I'll promise you anything you want!"
Tang Zhong Yi was Tang Xiao Xiao's ancestor after all. He had taken very good care of her since she was young, and he was her only family. How could she not be filled with remorse and hate when she learned that he was killed because of her personal matter? She could not wait to kill the person who murdered her only family. However, she knew very well, with her current strength, she would only die if she charged into the Heavenly Wave Mansion. Therefore, she had no choice but to turn to Duan Ling Tian for help to seek revenge for her ancestor. She was willing to give Duan Ling Tian her life if he could fulfill her wish.
"Lead the way then," Duan Ling Tian said. He did not say unnecessary words to comfort Tang Xiao Xiao. After all, action spoke louder than words.
"Thank you," Tang Xiao Xiao said appreciatively. She trembled when she heard Duan Ling Tian's reply, clearly eager to avenge Tang Zhong Yi.
Tang Chong looked on in surprise as Tang Xiao Xiao instantly led Duan Ling Tian back to the Interstellar Transportation Formation. They left the Thousand Opportunities Galaxy where Tang Sect was located and made their way to the Heavenly Wave Galaxy that was ruled by the Heavenly Wave Mansion.
The Heavenly Wave Mansion's estate was located on the home planet of the Heavenly Wave Galaxy.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Under Tang Xiao Xiao's lead, they rushed to the Heavenly Wave Mansion's estate.
"Who is it? How dare you trespass into the Heavenly Wave Mansion!" A group of patrolling disciples from the Heavenly Wave Mansion were instantly alerted when Duan Ling Tian and Tang Xiao Xiao entered the compound of the Heavenly Wave Mansion.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Tang Xiao Xiao lifted her hand before a terrifying ray of light shot out and directly killed all the patrolling disciples from the Heavenly Wave Mansion!
Duan Ling Tian could not help but shake his head at the viciousness of Tang Xiao Xiao's attack. Nevertheless, he understood her anger. He knew about her close relationship with Tang Zhong Yi since she had spoken about it during their journey to earth previously.
As expected, Tang Xiao Xiao's action caused a commotion in the Heavenly Wave Mansion!
