4435 The Considerate Li Feng
Duan Ling Tian did not expect Situ Lei, the Heaven Bearing Sword Saint, would request to meet him. After all, the other party was a high and mighty supreme powerhouse on par with Chi Ming from Chi Ming Mountain in the Divine Sand Realm. In his opinion, unless the Wang clan strongly recommended it and revealed his high innate talent, it would be impossible for him to meet such a person.
‘Did the Wang clan tell him I’m not even 10,000 years old and close to becoming a peerless top advanced Supreme God? If this is the case… It seems like the Wang clan doesn’t hide anything from this supreme powerhouse…’
Based on what Duan Ling Tian knew, the guests of the wedding were unaware of his strength and capability. In fact, even most of the members of the Wang clan were unaware of it. As such, it was clear that the Situ Lei, the Heaven Bearing Sword Saint, was an exception if his speculation was true.
Wang Kui sensed Duan Ling Tian’s hesitance so he said seriously, “Young Master Li Feng, Senior Situ isn’t just an ordinary ally of the Wang clan. After our supreme elder mentioned how heaven-defyingly talented you were, he wants to meet you. The supreme elder also mentioned your extraordinary comprehension of the Sword Dao. Senior Situ has said that if the supreme elder didn’t exaggerate, it’s likely that your comprehension of the Sword Dao has surpassed his…”
A hint of disbelief and shock could be seen in Wang Kui’s eyes when he spoke.
Wang Kui was not entirely certain how powerful the Four Daos of Heaven and Earth were because he did not comprehend them. As such, when Wang Jing Rao; one of the Supreme Elders of the Wang clan, told him that Duan Ling Tian’s comprehension of the Sword Dao was very profound, he did not understand the extent of its power. Nonetheless, it was still shocking to him when he learned that the Sword Dao of one of the strongest supreme powerhouses in the Divine Sand Realm was inferior to that of Duan Ling Tian.
Duan Ling Tian was not surprised when he heard Wang Kui’s words. After all, he had already suspected that the Wang clan revealed his capability to Situ Lei. However, he was surprised that the Wang clan mentioned his Sword Dao. With this, he concluded that Situ Lei wanted to meet him due to his Sword Dao.
‘I’m no match for him in terms of cultivation base and strength, but my Sword Dao is definitely superior to his. Even if the Sword Dao we comprehend is different, Situ Lei will still be able to learn a thing or two from me. I’m sure he knows this as well…’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself.
Duan Ling Tian was right. He did not mind sharing his knowledge of the Sword Dao with Situ Lei as long as he benefited from it. Moreover, he believed the Wang clan would fully accept him as long as he did a good job of pleasing Situ Lei. After all, the Wang clan was indebted to Situ Lei. They would do everything they could to fulfill Situ Lei’s wishes, especially this request since it was rare for them to be able to help a supreme powerhouse like Situ Lei. Situ Lei willingly protected the Wang clan due to his friendship with the late ancestor of the Wang clan, but such a connection would gradually weaken with time. Every time Situ Lei stepped forward to protect the Wang clan, Situ Lei was repaying the grace of the late ancestor of the Wang clan, and the Wang clan was naturally eager and happy to repay the favor through Duan Ling Tian. With this, the high-ranking officials of the Wang clan, including Wang Kui and the two supreme elders, would treat Duan Ling Tian as a part of the clan if he could help them.
“Brother Li Feng, I’ll be honest with you. The clan hopes that you’ll discuss the Sword Dao with Senior Situ. With your current level, he’ll definitely be able to learn a thing or two from you. If Senior Situ is happy with the outcome, the Wang clan will definitely fulfill your demands as long as they are within our capabilities,” Wang Kui said solemnly, expressing the Wang clan’s intention.
Duan Ling Tian smiled faintly and said, “Clan Leader Wang, I, Li Feng, am the son-in-law of the Wang clan. We’re a family. If the clan needs my help, I’ll do my best to help. May I know when it’s convenient for Senior Situ to meet me?”
Wang Kui’s eyes lit up upon hearing Duan Ling Tian’s reply. He could hardly contain his excitement as he said, “Young Master Li Feng, Senior Situ will come and meet you whenever it’s convenient for you.”
After learning that Duan Ling Tian’s comprehension of the Sword Dao had surpassed his, Situ Lei did not put on airs. Since Duan Ling Tian’s comprehension of the Sword Dao was so profound despite his young age, he was certain that Duan Ling Tian must have had an extraordinary background. In his opinion, it was not impossible for the force that Duan Ling Tian belonged to, to have a stronger supreme powerhouse than him. For this reason, despite being one of the strongest supreme powerhouses in the Divine Sand Realm, he did not underestimate Duan Ling Tian.
Duan Ling Tian smiled and said, “Senior Situ is too kind. As a junior, it’s only natural that I go over and meet him. Clan leader, please lead the way…”
“Thank you, Young Master Li Feng,” Wang Kui said as he sighed in relief inwardly. At the same time, he felt grateful.
If it was up to Wang Kui and the Wang clan, they naturally hoped that Duan Ling Tian would go and meet Situ Lei instead of the other way around due to Situ Lei’s high status. Moreover, due to Situ Lei’s seniority, it was indeed more appropriate for Duan Ling Tian to go to Situ Lei as a show of respect. However, the Wang clan also knew there was nothing they could do if Duan Ling Tian chose to let Situ Lei come to him.
Wang Kui quickly sent a message to Wang Jingrao, telling him that Duan Ling Tian had agreed to meet Situ Lei. He also did not forget to tell Wang Jingrao about how considerate and tactful Duan Ling Tian was.
“The Wang clan owes Li Feng a favor. After Senior Situ leaves, bring Li Feng to our clan’s treasure vault and let him take whatever he needs. However, with his innate talent, comprehension skills, and background, I doubt that there’ll be anything in our vault that’ll catch his eyes,” Wang Jingrao responded to Wang Kui.
At this time, Duan Ling Tian, who was following Wang Kui to meet Situ Lei, was unaware that the Wang clan had decided to allow him access to their treasure vault and take whatever he needed.
