Chapter 3302: Duan Ling Tian Displays His Strength
At this moment, Ouyang Qi Fei, Duan Ling Tians Fifth Senior Brother, said, Second Senior Brother, Third Senior Sister, Sixth Junior Brother, and I had asked around. A few days before you met Dugu Wen and Dugu Wu, someone saw Lei Jun looking for Han Yun Jin before both of them left the Heavenly Pool Palaces estate together. I suspect that was when they looked for Dugu Wen and Dugu Wu. Shortly after they returned, Dugu Wen and Dugu Wu tried to assassinate you. I dont think thered be so many coincidences... Unfortunately, these are all our speculations, and we dont have any evidence. Even if were 100% certain theyre the culprits, theres no way the Heavenly Pool Palace will punish them since were lacking evidence.
Upon hearing this, a gloomy expression appeared on the face of Hong Fei who always had a smile on his chubby face.
Second Senior Brother, Third Senior Sister, Fourth Senior Sister, Fifth Senior Brother, Sixth Senior Brother... Duan Ling Tian felt warm in his heart when he discovered his senior brothers and senior sisters did not spare any effort to investigate this matter.
Hu Mei said, Teacher even went to look for Pavilion Master Lei to test the water. Thats why he asked her to accompany him to wait for your return today. However, based on Teachers observation, its likely that shes not aware of this matter...
Thats right, Xu Lang said, If Lei Ying was aware of this and supported Lei Juns decision, he wouldnt have looked for Han Yun Jin to share the cost of hiring Dugu Wen and Dugu Wu.
Duan Ling Tian nodded; he agreed with Xu Lang. If Lei Jun had Lei Yings support, there was no need for him to expose his motive to Han Yun Jin at all. It was clear that Lei Jun had only looked for Han Yun Jin because he could not bear the cost of hiring titled Celestial Emperors alone. His eyes glinted coldly as he muttered to himself, Lei Jun, Han Yun Jin...
Brother Ling Tian. Ill look for Lei Ying now and ask for an explanation, Huaner suddenly said at this moment. Prior to this, she was not aware of this information. Duan Ling Tians senior brothers and senior sisters did not tell her anything about their investigation. After listening to all of them, she finally realized why Wen Waner had suddenly decided to follow her to Lei Yings cultivation place. Now that it was almost all but confirmed that Lei Jun had a hand in the assassination attempt, her Celestial Origin Energy surged out violently as anger burned in her eyes. If Lei Jun were present, she would not have been able to hold back from attacking him.
Huaner, dont act rashly. Duan Ling Tian grabbed Huaners hand.
Brother Ling Tian, he wants to kill you, Huaner said icily as she suppressed her anger.
This was Duan Ling Tians first time seeing the always gentle Huaner losing her composure. He knew it was because of him so he did not blame her. In fact, he was rather moved. Finally, he shook his head and said, Huaner, we dont have evidence. Even if we have evidence, we still have to have a strategy to resolve this matter. If it wont do us any favor if we act recklessly.
After Duan Ling Tian finished speaking, he sent a Voice Transmission to Huaner. Huaner, Ive found out where your father is being imprisoned in the Heavenly Pool Palace. I suspect your mother is there as well. Now is not the time for you to get into a conflict with Lei Ying and Lei Jun. Your identity as Lei Yings disciple is valuable for us to rescue your parents.
Huaner replied angrily, Brother Ling Tian, although I want to rescue my parents, I cant just ignore what he did.
Dont worry... Ill find a way to deal with Lei Jun and Han Yun Jin, Duan Ling Tian replied as his eyes flashed with a cold light.
At this moment, Hu Mei looked at Duan Ling Tian with hints of curiosity and skepticism in her eyes as she asked, Little Junior Brother, how did you manage to escape? Did you really kill Dugu Wen?
Third Senior Sister, you dont believe me? Duan Ling Tian said with a hint of helplessness.
Its not that I dont believe you... Its... Its just too unbelievable, Hu Mei replied with a wry smile.
Xu Lang and his other prodigious disciples shifted their attention to Duan Ling Tian as well upon hearing Hu Meis question. They were, naturally, curious as well.
He was very strong but also careless... I teleported two Ning Dragons, whose combined strength is on par with that of a titled Celestial Emperors, from my Little World to his back. With the help of the manifestation of the Pine Willow Divine Tree from the Godly Image Phenomenon I mastered in the Title Temple, I managed to kill him, Duan Ling Tian explained patiently. He had long come up with this excuse before arriving at the Heavenly Pool Palaces estate. He did not fear the consequences of people finding out about the existence of the Ning Dragons in his Little World and the Godly Image Phenomenon. Even people coveted the Ning Dragons, there was nothing they could do since it would be nigh difficult for them to take the Celestial Beasts away from his Little World. Even if they succeeded in taking the Ning Dragons away, there was no guarantee they would be able to get the Ning Dragons to listen to them. As for the Godly Image Phenomenon, similarly, it was not something that others could snatch from him.
Ning Dragons whose combined strength is comparable to that of a titled Celestial Emperor?
The manifestation of the Pine Willow Divine Tree from the Godly Image Phenomenon?
Everyone, including Xu Lang, seemed to be in a daze when they heard Duan Ling Tians words.
Upon seeing their reactions, Duan Ling Tian said, It seems like Teacher, senior brothers, and senior sisters want to have a look? I dont mind showing it to all of you...
As soon as Duan Ling Tian finished speaking, Duan Ling Tian held onto Huaner and brought her out of the main hall like a gust of wind.
The others, naturally, followed suit.
Duan Ling Tian hovered high in the sky, and with just a thought, he brought the Ning Dragons in his Little World out.
Teacher, Duan Ling Tian looked at Xu Lang and asked, Do you want to test their strength?
Xu Langs eyes widened imperceptibly when he saw the pair of Ning Dragons. He said skeptically, Old Seventh, I know a thing or two about Ning Dragons. At most, their strength should only be comparable to a Three Talents Celestial Emperor or Four Phenomenon Celestial Emperor, right? Are they really capable of killing Dugu Wen with their combined strength?
Duan Ling Tian said with a faint smile on his face, Teacher, youll know after youve tested their strength.
Teacher, hurry! I want to see the strength of Little Junior Brothers Ning Dragons as well! Hong Fei said excitedly.
Swoosh!
Without hesitation, Xu Lang moved and appeared in front of Duan Ling Tian.
Teacher, Im ready.
As soon as Duan Ling Tian finished speaking, he teleported the Ning Dragons behind Xu Lang.
Although Xu Lang had hastily retreated, the Ning Dragons joint attack was only a hairs breadth away from. All he could do at this moment was to deflect the attack. Although he had used all his strength to deflect the attack, he was still sent flying back, looking rather miserable. Although Duan Ling Tian had given him a reminder, he was still careless. If he were not careless, he would not have ended up in such a state.
So powerful!
The impact from the collision rippled out in waves.
The others could feel the scorching heat from the waves of energy and had no choice but to erect a barrier around themselves using their Celestial Origin Energies.
As Duan Ling Tian returned the Ning Dragons to his Little World, he said with a faint smile, Teacher, you were careless.
Following that, the manifestation of the Pine Willow Divine Tree from the Godly Image Phenomenon appeared before everyones eyes.
The Pine Willow Divine Tree!
I remember Little Junior Brothers opponent, Fan Qi, was a Pine Willow Divine Tree, right?
Hu Mei, Wen Waner, and Hong Fei looked at each other in disbelief.
At that time I thought Little Junior Brothers methods were too simple and straightforward to deal with Fan Qi... It seems like theres more than meets the eyes with Little Junior Brother, Hu Mei said. After a beat, she asked, Little Junior Brother, you only mastered the Godly Image Phenomenon after killing Fan Qi, right?
As the Pine Willow Divine Tree slowly faded away, Duan Ling Tian nodded.
Hu Mei said with a sigh, Its great that you benefited from Fan Qis death. Im sure not even in his wildest dreams would he expect that not only are you capable of killing him, but you would even go on to master his Godly Image Phenomenon. If he was privy to these things, Im sure even if someone held a knife to his neck, he wouldnt have dared to challenge you to a life-death battle. After a while, her eyes lit up as she continued to say, Its really unexpected that apart from Eldest Senior Sister, we have someone else in our ranks whos capable of killing a titled Celestial Emperor as well!
Eldest Senior Sister? Duan Ling Tian was surprised when he heard Hu Mei mentioning their Eldest Senior Sister whom he had yet to meet and learned that she was capable of killing a titled Celestial Emperor.
