Chapter 3576: Duan Ling Tian Arrives at the Given Alliance
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Previously, when Wu Long, the second Leader of the Given Alliance, challenged Duan Ling Tian, Duan Ling Tian thought the matter to be only between him and Wu Long. In fact, he had no intention of killing Wu Long until Wu Long attempted to kill him.
Although Duan Ling Tian was aware that killing Wu Long would provoke the Given Alliance and the Heavenly Emperor of the Given Heaven, it did not change his mind about killing Wu Long. After all, he would not be able to forgive himself if he spared someone who attempted to kill him just because he was afraid of offending the Heavenly Emperor of the Given Heaven. In fact, this matter might even cause him to form a knot in his heart that would hinder his cultivation in the future.
‘I wouldn’t have become a demigod if I didn’t kill Wu Long.’ Duan Ling Tian did not have the slightest regret about killing Wu Long. He would not be a Nine Star God of War in such a short time if he did not kill Wu Long.
‘The Given Alliance…’
Previously, Duan Ling Tian would take some time off from his closed-door cultivation and leave his cultivating ground in the North Profound Alliance. There were a few instances where he had overheard the conversations between the members of the North Profound Alliance. At that time, he had heard that the Given Alliance had announced that those who provided clues to his whereabouts would be rewarded. Apart from that, those who managed to kill him and presented his corpse to them would be rewarded even more handsomely.
‘I hope the Given Alliance won’t disappoint me now that I’m sending myself to their base…’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself as he flew toward the central region where the Given Alliance was based.
…
Since Duan Ling Tian traveled by means of teleportation, which covered a vast distance each time he teleported, he soon arrived at the central region of the Nine Serenities Battlefield.
As soon as Duan Ling Tian arrived, he found a middle-aged man and asked with a smile, “Sir, can you point me to the Given Alliance’s base?”
“I don’t know!” the middle-aged man said impatiently, annoyed by Duan Ling Tian for blocking his path.
“Thank you.” Duan Ling Tian teleported away.
When the middle-aged man saw Duan Ling Tian vanishing into thin air, his back broke out in cold sweat. To think he had been so impatient to someone so powerful!
Duan Ling Tian continued asking around for directions to the Given Alliance base, but most people responded rather impatiently to him. Eventually, he realized how rude he had been for abruptly blocking someone’s path. Hence, when he found the next target, he flew to the side before calling out.
The person Duan Ling Tian called out was a young man with an ordinary appearance and a medium build. However, his eyes were piercing, and he had determined air about him.
“Sir, can you point me to the Given Alliance base?”
The young man’s expression changed slightly when he saw how fast Duan Ling Tian had moved. He looked at Duan Ling Tian warily and took a few steps back to distance himself. He knew that Duan Ling Tian could easily kill him.
Upon seeing the young man’s reactions, Duan Ling Tian shook his head and said, “Don’t worry. Do you think you’d be alive now if I wanted to kill you?”
The young man’s expression eased upon hearing these words. Then, he said, “The Given Alliance base is in the Second Central Region.”
“The Second Central Region?” Duan Ling Tian was startled. “Then, where’s this place?”
The young man looked at Duan Ling Tian suspiciously as he said, “The Sixth Central Region.”
“How can I get to the Second Central Region?” Duan Ling Tian asked.
The young man pointed southeast and said, “Go in this direction and you’ll arrive at the Second Central Region after passing through the Fourth Central Region. The Given Alliance is the strongest force in the Second Central Region so everyone there knows where it’s located. Why are you going to the Given Alliance? I don’t think they’re recruiting new members now. Ever since their second leader, Wu Long, died, they stopped recruiting new members. Nobody knows when they’ll start recruiting members again.”
Duan Ling Tian replied with a faint smile on his face, “I don’t plan to join the Given Alliance.” Then, his eyes narrowed as he added, “I’m going to turn the Given Alliance upside down! Anyway, thank you!”
With that, Duan Ling Tian teleported away before the young man could even respond.
“He wants to turn the Given Alliance upside down? Is he joking? Now that I think about it, he looks quite familiar…” the young man muttered to himself after Duan Ling Tian left. After a few dozen breaths, his eyes widened as he exclaimed, “H-he’s Duan Ling Tian! The person the Given Alliance is searching for! However, he looks more handsome in person!”
The young man had seen the portrait that the Given Alliance had distributed.
“He said he wants to turn the Given Alliance upside down… Why’s he so confident? Isn’t he just an Eight Star God of War? Even if he’s terrifyingly strong, he’s no match for Ji Ying, the first Leader of the Given Alliance who’s a Nine Star God of War. Is it possible that he’s become a Nine Star God of War as well?”
The more the young man thought about it, the more he thought it was possible. After all, after going into hiding for so long, why would Duan Ling Tian suddenly decide to go to the Given Alliance?
“I should go and have a look!” The young man did not hesitate and flew in the direction he had just pointed out to Duan Ling Tian.
“My life will be complete if I can witness the battle between Duan Ling Tian and Ji Ying!” The young man’s eyes burned with excitement as he made his way to the Second Central Region.
…
As the strongest force in the Second Central Region, the Given Alliance base was located in the heart of the region.
In the Given Alliance base.
Despite being in different places, Ji Ying and Yue Chao Qun, the Nine Star God of War sent by the Title Temple, were waiting for Mi Xuan’s return. They were curious if Duan Ling Tian was truly Li Feng, the Supreme Guardian of the North Profound Alliance. While they were waiting for Mi Xuan…
“Ji Ying!”
A loud and energetic voice reverberated through the Given Alliance base.
“I’m Duan Ling Tian. I heard the Given Alliance has been searching for me. Now that I’m here, shouldn’t you come out to greet me?”
…
Duan Ling Tian hovered in the air in front of the entrance of the Given Alliance base with his hands on his back.
Initially, the guards from the Given Alliance were looking at Duan Ling Tian curiously, wondering what the purple-clad young man intended to do. However, their expressions changed drastically when he announced his name.
“He’s Duan Ling Tian?”
“So he’s the only true disciple of Heavenly Emperor Feng Qing Yang of the Solitary Destructive Heaven? The person who killed Second Leader Wu Long?”
“How dare he show up here and demand our Leader to see him!”
“Does he have a death wish?”
“Wasn’t he hiding? Why did he suddenly show up?”
Soon enough, most of them realized that for Duan Ling Tian to show up at their base, it meant that Duan Ling Tian was not afraid of their leader. This could only mean that Duan Ling Tian was now a Nine Star God of War.
“Is it possible that he’s become a Nine Star God of War?”
…
“Duan Ling Tian?!” Yue Chao Qun’s expression turned grim. “It seems like the Supreme Guardian of the North Profound Alliance in the Second Northern Region isn’t Duan Ling Tian. Since Duan Ling Tian is here, it means he’s now a Nine Star God of War.”
Needless to say, it did not occur to Yue Chao Qun that Mi Xuan had been defeated by Duan Ling Tian. He assumed Mi Xuan was busy investigating the Supreme Guardian of the North Profound Alliance.
Naturally, Yu Chao Qun never thought that Mi Xuan would be defeated by Duan Ling Tian. He thought Mi Xuan must be still busy investigating the Supreme Guardian of the North Profound Alliance when Duan Ling Tian, who they had been searching high and low for, had suddenly shown up.
‘Ji Ying must be on the way to see him now, right?’ Yue Chao Qun thought to himself.
Soon enough, he received a message from Ji Ying.
“Isn’t Duan Ling Tian the Title Temple’s target as well. Since he’s here, why don’t you come with me to see him?”
Yue Chao Qun sneered upon hearing Ji Ying’s message. He knew that the arrogant Ji Ying was not sure about how to deal with Duan Ling Tian, therefore, Ji Ying had invited him along..
