Chapter 2477 Leaving
Whoosh!
Under everyones watchful eyes, KeEr vanished. When she reappeared, she was already standing by Duan Ling Tians side. She moved her delicate hands and held onto Duan Ling Tians arm as she hugged him, looking extremely happy.
The onlookers who had personally witnessed Keer effortlessly killing the two Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestials found it hard to accept her change in behavior. She was behaving so meekly in front of a man. They shifted their attention to Duan Ling Tian. He had become the focus of everyones attention due to his wife, Keer.
Duan Ling Tian...
Duan Ling Tian is already freakishly strong, hows it possible that the beauty by his side is so strong as well?
His woman is obviously stronger than him. I wonder what he has to offer that a peerless beauty like her chose to be with him.
This lady is most likely a Celestial from a Devata Realm. Otherwise, its impossible for her to be so strong!
Could she be the reason why Duan Ling Tian possesses strength comparable to a Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial despite being an Eminent Celestial?
Thats possible.
The onlookers could not help but discuss among themselves. The younger men were filled with jealousy, envy, and resentment when they looked at Duan Ling Tian.
Keer... Duan Ling Tian knew Keer was still the same person he knew even though her strength had improved tremendously.
Brother Tian. Keer leaned on Duan Ling Tians shoulder. When she looked at Duan Ling Tian, her eyes were filled with so much love as though he was the only one in her world.
The onlookers had a hard time believing this was the same person who had killed two Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestials earlier.
Keer, are you hiding something from me? Duan Ling Tian asked gently as he patted Keers head as though no one was present. He had a strong feeling it was not easy for Keer to obtain this level of strength. It was likely not as simple as she had made it out to be.
Keer stiffened slightly when she heard Duan Ling Tians question. In the end, she revealed the truth to Duan Ling Tian since she could not bring herself to lie to him.
Burning the soul... Although Keer had spoken about it lightly, Duan Ling Tian felt his heart ache. He knew how painful it was to burn ones soul. He hugged her tightly when he found out about the grueling process of her obtaining her strength. He asked in a trembling voice, Why are you so silly? What if something happens to you? Whats going to happen to Si Ling and me at that time?
Brother Tian, its not dangerous... Im not so foolish as to give up on you and Si Ling just to increase my strength. The pain was bearable so I...
Duan Ling Tian interrupted Keer before she finished speaking. No! Y-you... Why didnt you tell me? I would never allow you to do it if I had known!
I-I just want to be stronger so I can help you. I dont want to be useless, and I dont want to be a damsel in distress who has to be saved, Keer said softly in response to Duan Ling Tians domineering words.
Dont say that! Youre not useless! We wont have Si Ling without you. Moreover, I wont be here today if its not because of you. I only pursue strength to protect you and our family, Duan Ling Tian said, slightly agitated. He was slightly angry when he heard Keer words that were filled with self-doubts.
Brother Tian, I-I was wrong... Although Keer was stronger than Duan Ling Tian, she still acted like a delicate young girl in front of Duan Ling Tian. Upon hearing the slight anger in his voice, she instantly became anxious.
Silly girl... Looking at how meek Keer was, Duan Ling Tians anger faded away. Moreover, she had done this for his sake. If it were not for Keer, let alone Feng Tian Wu, Han Xue Nai, and the others, even he would have died today. He tightened his hold on her as though he wished to be one with her so they could stay together forever. Silly, silly girl...
Brother Tian... Keer returned Duan Ling Tians hug.
At this moment, the loving couple displayed their affections for each other as though there was no one present on the scene. Nobody dared to make a sound. They only watched silently, afraid of disturbing the couple. Who knew if the couple would kill them if they were displeased?
Some members from the Kraken Python Sect and Power Saint Sect were looking at the affectionate couple with hate-filled eyes. Even then, none of them dared to make a move. They would only be seeking deaths if they made a move. After all, that woman had effortlessly killed two Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestials!
No one noticed Gan Ru Yan who was standing at the distance. At this moment, her eyes flashed with jealousy as she looked at her sister, Keer. In the past, she had only felt envious of her sister. However, after being reproached by Duan Ling Tian when they came out from the location of the inheritance from a Great Overarching Golden Celestial, twisted jealousy began to raise its head in her heart. She thought to herself, unresigned, We have the same parents, and were twins. Why is her life so much better than mine? Why is our fate so different? Although she was extremely jealous now, she was not driven to do anything extreme. As it was, she did not even dare to show her jealousy in front of others.
After some time, Han Xue Nai finally spoke up, Brother Ling Tian, Sister Keer, its... Were still here... More importantly, can I have Sister Keer back now, Brother Ling Tian?
As soon as Han Xue Nai spoke, Keer who was blissfully unaware earlier, turned red. Then, she shyly extricated herself from Duan Ling Tians arms.
Duan Ling Tian felt slightly unwilling to let Keer out of his arms. He said teasingly, Xue Nai, you want to ask Keer about the method she used to rapidly increase her strength, right? He knew he had gotten too caught up in the moment earlier and had unconsciously put on a show for everyone to watch.
Han Xue Nai laughed in embarrassment when Duan Ling Tian exposed her thoughts.
Keer felt embarrassed when she sensed the looks from Feng Tian Wu, Mu Yi Yi, and Gan Ru Yan. She quickly left Duan Ling Tians side and moved to Han Xue Nai. Since Duan Ling Tian treated Han Xue Nai like his younger sister, she also treated her the same way. She could not help but blush. She did not care about the onlookers opinion, but these were people she knew.
Duan Ling Tian who was also feeling discomfited by everyones stare quickly said, Alright, we should leave now.
Under everyones watchful eyes, Duan Ling Tian and his companions left. People from Kun Mang Sect and Power Saint Sect heaved a sigh of relief when they saw this. After all, they were worried Duan Ling Tian would kill them for their ancestors actions. However, it seemed like they were overthinking.
I cant believe I saw a cultivator whos stronger than a Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial in the Beyond Heaven Secret Zone! Based on her strength, she has to be a true Celestial. Moreover, shes probably a Golden Celestial, a knowledgeable Eight Tribulation Bodiless Celestial thought to himself.
