4350 Duan Ling Tian’s Departure
As the Leader of the Xia clan, Xia Yu was tasked with shouldering the entire Xia clan. It was understandable that he chose to prioritize the safety of his clan over his daughter’s happiness. He had to consider the bigger picture.
However, if Duan Ling Tian were in Xia Yu’s shoes, he would have resigned from his position as the clan leader and protected his daughter instead. If the clan threatened him, he would bring his daughter with him and leave the clan. However, he also knew that it would not be an easy decision. After all, there was no doubt that the clan had invested a lot of resources into its clan leader. He was not an ungrateful person.
Hence, Duan Ling Tian did not hate Xia Yu at all. He just could not accept Xia Yu’s decision for the time being even if he could understand Xia Yu. Needless to say, if Ke’er forgave her father, he definitely would accept Xia Yu.
…
Before the Xia clan’s supreme powerhouse arrived, Duan Ling Tian spent most of his time with his two senior brothers. Through their conversations about the Inner Palace faction, he had a better understanding of how monstrous their Eldest Senior Sister, whom he had yet to meet, was.
Hong Yi Feng said with a sigh, “It was only after I entered the advanced chaotic region that I found out Eldest Senior Sister was acknowledged by supreme powerhouses as the strongest advanced Supreme God in the God Defying World. After experiencing so many things in the Realm Battlefield, I thought I had closed the gap between us a little. Alas, I was too naive. Eldest Senior Sister improved much more than I did.”
After that, Hong Yi Feng looked at Duan Ling Tian and said with a smile, “Junior brother, Eldest Senior Sister will definitely be overjoyed when she finds out that our Inner Palace faction has another monstrous talent like you. She’s not a stingy person. She’ll definitely prepare a huge welcome gift for you when she meets you!”
Yang Yu Chen looked at Hong Yi Feng and said with a sneer, “Second Senior Brother, you said that Eldest Senior Sister isn’t a stingy person. How about you? It seems like you didn’t prepare a welcome gift for junior brother, did you?”
Hong Yi Feng was briefly stunned by Yang Yu Chen’s words. Then, he said sheepishly, “Third Junior Brother, you know how poor I am… Moreover, I haven’t been to the Outer Boundary yet. How’s it possible for me to have any treasure that’s worthy of junior brother? Moreover, whatever I’ll be able to come up with will definitely pale in comparison to the liquid from the divine fountain.”
After Hong Yi Feng finished speaking, he brought his spatial ring out and emptied its contents in front of Duan Ling Tian before he said, “Junior brother, if you see anything you like, please take it.”
Among the things from Hong Yi Feng’s spatial ring was the vial of liquid from the divine fountain that Duan Ling Tian gave him.
Based on the flashing light on Hong Yi Feng’s spatial ring, it was clear that he really emptied it and did not hide anything at all. He was very honest.
Duan Ling Tian shook his head and said with a smile, “Second Senior Brother, Third Senior Brother was just teasing you. I don’t lack anything at the moment. Please put away your possessions.”
Hong Yi Feng kept insisting even after Duan Ling Tian declined his good intentions.
Finally, Duan Ling Tian chose two items that were useful to him to appease Hong Yi Feng.
…
Although Duan Ling Tian’s time with his two senior brothers was short, they got along very well.
When the Xia clan’s supreme powerhouse finally arrived, Duan Ling Tian had to bid farewell to his two senior brothers.
Yang Yu Chen and Hong Yi Feng watched as the supreme powerhouse tore an opening in the space so Duan Ling Tian could enter the turbulent space.
“Thank you, senior,” Duan Ling Tian said with a bow, expressing his gratitude to the supreme powerhouse before he left. He was determined to repay this favor.
“Be careful after you enter the turbulent space,” the supreme powerhouse said. He did not put on airs. After all, Duan Ling Tian was among the strongest cultivators in the God Defying World. He, like most supreme powerhouses, had high regard for Duan Ling Tian. Duan Ling Tian might not be a match for him now, but Duan Ling Tian might surpass him after Duan Ling Tian became a supreme powerhouse.
‘He’ll become an extraordinary supreme powerhouse if he becomes a supreme powerhouse,’ the Xia clan’s supreme powerhouse thought to himself. He was very confident about this. After all, considering how Duan Ling Tian was comparable to top intermediate Supreme Gods when he was just a rudimentary Supreme God, one could only imagine how strong Duan Ling Tian would be once he became a supreme powerhouse.
After Duan Ling Tian entered the turbulent space, the supreme powerhouse from the Xia clan said to Yang Yu Chen and Hong Yi Feng, “The both of you will definitely be targeted once you leave the Xia clan. I’ll escort you back to the Profound Energy Land.”
The duo was naturally astonished. However, they also knew that Xia Yu must have mentioned them to the Xia clan’s supreme powerhouse.
“If there are no accidents, your Eldest Senior Sister should become a supreme powerhouse soon,” the Xia clan’s supreme powerhouse said.
The Xia clan’s supreme powerhouse was courteous to Yang Yu Chen and Hong Yi Feng not only because of their close relationship with Duan Ling Tian, but it was also because they were Huangfu Meng Yuan’s junior brothers. He was certain that Huangfu Meng Yuan would become a supreme powerhouse before Duan Ling Tian. Moreover, she would not be an ordinary supreme powerhouse once she became one. If he could befriend her two junior brothers, it would also help him to build a connection with her.
“Thank you, senior. Sorry for the inconvenience.”
Yang Yu Chen and Hong Yi Feng also wanted to return to the Myriad Laws Academy as soon as possible. Although they could also cultivate in the Xia clan, it was not their home, after all.
