4211 Resolving the Conflict
As one of the Vice Leaders of the Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation, Lu Tian Feng was deeply aware of how the congregation respected the strong and trampled on the weak. In fact, this was how he was as well. If another vice leader had provoked Duan Ling Tian, he would have taken the lead to capture the other party to appease Duan Ling Tian as well. Alas, there was no changing the fact that he was the one who had offended Duan Ling Tian by annihilating the mundane realm Duan Ling Tian came from and killing those related to him, his family, and his friends.
The high-ranking officials of the Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation had been unaware of Lu Tian Feng’s actions until later on. Now that they heard about Duan Ling Tian’s progress, they would undoubtedly hand him over to Lu Tian Feng to repair their relationship with Duan Ling Tian.
‘I’ll definitely die if I don’t leave the congregation. I’d be crazy if I continued to stay in the congregation.’
Lu Tian Feng finally sighed in relief after he successfully left the Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation.
‘Damn it! I should’ve killed Duan Ling Tian earlier when I could! It’ll be extremely difficult for me to kill him in the future. Because of him, I had to leave the congregation! Not only that, but I’ll have to live in seclusion from now on since no supreme-rank force will take me in after this…’
Lu Tian Feng’s hatred toward Duan Ling Tian reached its peak at this time. He knew that the various heavyweight and even prime supreme-rank forces would take notice of Duan Ling Tian after his progress in the Trial of Gods was made known. There would be no lack of forces trying to recruit Duan Ling Tian after this, and there would definitely be a few that would target him to curry favor with Duan Ling Tian.
‘Duan Ling Tian… This is all your fault. You were from the Pure Yang Sect before joining the Myriad Laws Academy. Since there’s nothing I can do to you for now, the Pure Yang Sect will have to pay the price,’ Lu Tian Feng thought to himself as his eyes glinted frostily, ‘I’ll leave the Profound Energy Land after annihilating the Pure Yang Sect. I’ll start over in another Realm of Gods. There has to be a place for me in this vast universe…’
Lu Tian Feng knew he would have to leave the Profound Energy Land once he annihilated the Pure Yang Sect. It would be dangerous for him to stay in the Profound Energy Land. Duan Ling Tian would only be stimulated into making a move once he annihilated the Pure Yang Sect. Most importantly, Duan Ling Tian had the support of Yang Yu Chen. Lu Tian Feng knew he was no match for Yang Yu Chen. Let alone defeating Yang Yu Chen, he was not even sure he could escape from Yang Yu Chen.
‘I’ll leave and never return once I annihilate the Pure Yang Sect. When the dust settles after a few hundred or a thousand years later, I’ll return to deal with the other forces connected to Duan Ling Tian…’
Lu Tian Feng was unexpectedly rational and was right in his decision to leave. After all, he knew one small mistake would lead to his death.
‘Pure Yang Sect…’
Lu Tian Feng’s eyes burned with killing intent as he wasted no time flying toward the Pure Yang Sect.
Before joining the Myriad Laws Academy, Duan Ling Tian was with the Pure Yang Sect, one of the top forces in the Eastern Ridge Mansion. He also had a few close friends in the Pure Yang Sect such as Zhen Ping Fan from the Cloud Peak faction and Ye Cheng from the Hidden Sword faction. However, Ye Cheng was likely no longer in the Pure Yang Sect.
…
In the Myriad Laws Academy.
Many proud prodigies from the various heavyweight supreme-rank forces were escorted back to their respective forces after leaving the Trial of Gods.
To be safe, the Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation had even sent a few intermediate Supreme Gods to escort their prodigies back.
Everyone knew the reason why the Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation was being so cautious.
At this time, a few people from the Rainbow Phoenix Pavilion were discussing the matter among themselves.
A beautiful woman, an intermediate Supreme God, said with a sigh, “Duan Ling Tian was already famous in the past, but his fame will reach unprecedented heights now. There’ll be very few people in the Profound Energy Land who don’t know his name after today…”
Tuo Ba Xiu and Zhang Tian Jiao were among the people standing near the beautiful intermediate Supreme Gods.
Tuo Ba Xiu made progress in the Trial of Gods but she failed to make a breakthrough.
On the contrary, Zhang Tian Jiao successfully broke through in the Trial of Gods and became an advanced Emperor of Gods. However, she was still far from completely stabilizing her cultivation base.
Zhang Tian Jiao nodded and said with a sigh, “That’s right. Three years ago, he was just an advanced Lord of Gods. His cultivation base was two levels below mine. Although many people said his strength was comparable to an intermediate Emperor of Gods at that time, I didn’t think he was a match for me. However, only three years have passed, and his cultivation base has already surpassed mine. Based on his previous performance, it’s likely that he’s capable of killing ordinary rudimentary Supreme Gods now.”
Zhang Tian Jiao continued to say with a bitter smile on her face, “In the past, I thought there was a chance for me and him to be together, but it seems like he’s way out of my league now…”
Tuo Ba Xiu did not say a word at all. However, a hint of gloominess could be seen in the depths of her eyes. She only felt despair when she thought about the insurmountable gap between her and Duan Ling Tian.
At this time, the beautiful intermediate Supreme God said before bringing Zhang Tian Jiao, Tuo Ba Xiu, and the others away, “Alright, let’s go.”
At the same time, the other intermediate Supreme Gods from the other heavyweight supreme-rank forces brought their disciples away as well.
However, unlike the others, the intermediate Supreme Gods from the Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation did not seem like they were in a hurry to leave the Myriad Laws Academy.
Meng Yu, one of the strongest Holy Sons of the Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation, frowned slightly as he asked, “Senior granduncle, aren’t we going to leave as well?”
Meng Yu wanted to leave the Myriad Laws Academy as soon as possible. He felt threatened by Duan Ling Tian and Lang Chun Yuan, the two monsters. Moreover, the two monsters also had Yang Yu Chen, who was also not a simple person.
In the past, Duan Ling Tian had killed Wang Yun Sheng, another Holy Son of the Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation. At that time, Meng Yu did not think that Duan Ling Tian, whose cultivation base was two levels below his, was capable of killing him. However, Duan Ling Tian’s cultivation base was above his after coming out of the Trial of Gods. Before entering the Trial of Gods, Meng Yu was an intermediate Emperor of Gods. He managed to break through and become an advanced Emperor of Gods, but he failed to stabilize his cultivation base during the three years he spent in the Trial of Gods. He naturally was no match for Duan Ling Tian who not only became an advanced Emperor of Gods but also stabilized his cultivation base.
The intermediate Supreme God replied to Meng Yu, “Vice Leader Li has some matters to attend to. We’ll leave when he returns.”
…
At the same time, Li Dong Hui, one of the Vice Leaders of the Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation who was a powerful intermediate Supreme God, appeared at Su Bi Lie’s residence.
“Greetings, Academy Master Su,” Li Dong Hui said respectfully with a bow.
Su Bi Lie was not just the Academy Master of the Myriad Laws Academy, after all. He was also a powerful advanced Supreme God. Even the Leader of the Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation, who was also an advanced Supreme God, was not confident about defeating Su Bi Lie.
“What brings you here?” Su Bi Lie asked, looking slightly annoyed.
Li Dong Hui could naturally tell that Su Bi Lie was annoyed, but he did not show any displeasure or dissatisfaction. He said, “Academy Master Su, I came for Vice Academy Master Yang’s junior brother, Duan Ling Tian. I wonder if it’s convenient for me to meet him?”
Su Bi Lie raised an eyebrow and asked, “You want to meet Duan Ling Tian? Are you still determined to avenge Wang Yun Sheng?”
Li Dong Hui quickly shook his head before he said with a wry smile, “Academy Master Su, you misunderstood me. I’m not here to avenge anyone or stir up trouble. On the contrary, I came here hoping to resolve the conflict between Duan Ling Tian and the Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation.”
“You came to resolve the conflict?” Su Bi Lie laughed. When his laughter subsided, he said with a scoff, “You know best about what your congregation did in the past. Now that you realize how high Duan Ling Tian will soar in the future, you want to resolve the conflict? How preposterous!”
Su Bi Lie had been furious when a few teachers of the Myriad Laws Academy attacked Duan Ling Tian. He knew the teachers were driven into a corner by the Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation, but there was nothing he could do since he had no evidence. How could he not be furious?
Li Dong Hui hastily said, “Academy Master, our Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation has nothing to do with the attacks targeted at Duan Ling Tian in the past! They were all former Vice Leader Lu’s doings!”
“Hmm? Former vice leader?” Su Bi Lie cocked an eyebrow.
“Academy Master Su, before I came to the academy, the congregation had already decided to punish Lu Tian Feng. If he did not leave, he should’ve been imprisoned by the congregation now. I hope you’ll allow me to meet Duan Ling Tian so I can explain this matter to him to resolve the misunderstanding. Although there was no direct conflict between Duan Ling Tian and the congregation, Lu Tian Feng was a member of the congregation. As such, the congregation plans to compensate Duan Ling Tian,” Li Dong Hui patiently said.
Su Bi Lie naturally knew the Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation wanted to give Duan Ling Tian some benefits to resolve the conflict between them. After a moment, he said nonchalantly, “I can’t decide for Duan Ling Tian, but I’ll contact Vice Academy Master Yang and tell him to ask if Duan Ling Tian is willing to meet you.”
“Thank you, Academy Master Su,” Li Dong Hui said.
…
“The Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation came to make amends?”
Duan Ling Tian was slightly surprised when he heard from Yang Yu Chen that the Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation came to resolve the conflict with him. When he recovered, he sneered and muttered, “Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation, don’t think I don’t know what you’re trying to do!”
