Chapter 3719: Uncle, My Condolences
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After more than two months, Long Xiao finally left King Descending City with regret and returned to the Hidden Fog Sect.
Over the past two months, he had used all his connections in King Descending City to search for Duan Ling Tian, the new core disciple of the Hidden Fog Sect, so he could kill Duan Ling Tian. Alas, his search bore no fruits.
Ever since Duan Ling Tian revealed his identity on the streets of King Descending City and openly showed his interest in Linghu Chu Yin, the first beauty of the Linghu clan, he had disappeared without a trace in King Descending City. It was as though he had never been there in the first place.
Initially, Long Xiao waited patiently for Duan Ling Tian to show up, but when it was clear he would not be able to find Duan Ling Tian, he finally decided to return to the Hidden Fog Sect.
Its best if you never return to the Hidden Fog Sect. Otherwise, I, Long Xiao, will definitely kill you! Long Xiao muttered to himself as his eyes shone with killing intent.
As soon as he arrived at the Hidden Fog Sect, the first thing he did was to confirm that Duan Ling Tian was not in the sect. Only when he confirmed Duan Ling Tian was not in the sect that he returned to his cultivation ground, which was also the cultivation ground of his master, Supreme Elder Lei.
Not long after Long Xiaos return, Long Xiao went to look for Shangguan Xiong Feng, As soon as Long Xiao saw Shangguan Xiong Feng, Shangguan Xiong Feng said teasingly, Long Xiao, you wasted so much time, but you didnt get so much as a piece of news about him. It seems like hes smart enough to
hide from you.
Ididnt come to be mocked by you, Long Xiao said with a slight frown on his face. Then, he asked, During the time I was away, did Duan Ling Tian return to the sect?
No. Shangguan Xiong Feng shook his head. His voice took on a playful tone as he said, If he came back, I wouldve notified you. Do you think Id help him?
Shangguan Xiong Feng continued to say, However, recently, there have been a few inner disciples and core disciples inquiring about Duan Ling Tian. I dont know what their intentions are though.
Long Xiao sneered. He said contemptuously with a hint of pride, They probably intend to curry favor with him since hes the first advanced god to become a core disciple in 10,000 years. If I openly announce that Duan Ling Tian is my enemy, theyll definitely sever all ties with him.
Is it possible that he doesnt plan to return to the sect? Shangguan Xiong Feng asked before he said, After all, you probably frightened him previously. Im sure he knows the sect wont punish you even if you violate the sect rules due to Supreme Elder Lei. He should know that hed die sooner or later if he
continues staying in the sect.
Long Xiao scoffed. He said, filled with cold killing intent, Its best if he doesnt return. If he dares to return to the sect, I definitely wont let him go.
In the inner sanctuary of the Divine Sanctuary that was left behind by a rudimentary Emperor of Gods.
A soft thud rang in the air as Wu Feng, an inner disciple of the Hidden Fog Sect, appeared. His expression was one of regret at this moment. However, it did not take long for it to be replaced with a smile as he murmured, As expected of an Emperor of Gods. The treasure he left behind might not be
anything much in his eyes but theyre rare treasures in my eyes. What a pity. I was so close to passing that obstacle. If I had succeeded, I wouldve gained another treasure.
I managed to pass seven obstacles and obtained nine treasures from Qin Wu, the Emperor of Gods. However, Junior Brother Duan might be able to overcome all the obstacles and obtain the prominent divine artifact, Wu Feng said with a hint of anticipation in his eyes. Although he had failed to overcome
all the obstacles, he was rather confident Duan Ling Tian would be able to go further than him and obtain more treasures.
After a moment, Wu Fengs expression turned solemn as though he had just recalled something, According to the statue of Qin Wu, Du Qian Jun and his companion who had taken the other path would be transported out of the Divine Sanctuary. Due to the Devil Hearts Blood Oath, they wont be able to
say anything about the Divine Sanctuary to anyone, but they can still talk about Chu Hans death. Im sure theyll be able to come up with a story to spread news about Chu Hans death. Based on Junior Brother Duans words, Du Qian Jun and Chu Han had likely exchanged Soul Pearls so Du Qian Jun must be
aware of Chu Hans death. Once Du Qian Jun finds a way to tell his grandfather about Chu Hans death without revealing the Divine Sanctuary, Chu Hans grandfather will definitely tell his senior brother whos also Chu Hans master. With all that, it wont be difficult for them to discover my and Junior
Brother Duans identities...
The more Wu Feng thought about it, the more solemn his expression became.
It was just as Wu Feng thought. At this time, the people of the 10,000 Devils Sect, who had been sent by the Sect Leader of the 10,000 Devils Sect, had already confirmed Duan Ling Tian and Wu Fengs identities based on the clues given by Du Qian Jun.
At this time, a member of the 10,000 Devils Sect reported his findings to the Sect Leader of the 10,000 Devils Sect.
The Sect Leader of the 10,000 Devils Sect was a gentle and elegant middle-aged man who was dressed in a white robe.
Sect Leader, our spy in the Hidden Fog Sect has sent news that Duan Ling Tian, a new core disciple of the Hidden Fog Sect, had left the Hidden Fog Sect quite a while ago. He hasnt returned to the sect for months now. The last time he was seen was in King Descending City where he openly expressed his
interest in Linghu Chu Yin, the most beautiful woman in the Linghu clan.
Another member said, Sect leader, Ive investigated all the rudimentary Kings of Gods, core disciples, and even the outer disciples. However, theres no one with the name Wu Yi Shan. However, a few months ago, Duan Ling Tian exchanged for two Auspicious Pills with a mediocre divine artifact from an
inner sect disciple called Wu Feng. The two became friends since then and even exchanged Soul Pearls.
received news that both Duan Ling Tian and Wu Feng arent in the Hidden Fog Sect. Moreover, the time Wu Feng left the sect coincides with the time when Wu Yi Shan disappeared. With this, its likely that Wu Feng is Wu Yi Shan. As for the person whom Wu Feng addressed as Junior Brother Duan, its
likely that hes Duan Ling Tian who rose to fame in the Hidden Fog Sect not too long ago.
The eyes of the Sect Leader of the 10,000 Devils Sect brightened upon hearing the reports. He did not waste time and went looking for Du Zhan, the Supreme Elder of the 10,000 Devils Sect.
Uncle, Ive received some news... Based on the clues youve told me, Im almost certain Wu Yi Shan is Wu Feng, an inner disciple of the Hidden Fog Sect. As for his companion, Im also certain hes Duan Ling Tian. In the Hidden Fog Sect, only Duan Ling Tian has the capability to fight with a rudimentary
King of Gods despite being an advanced god.
Du Zhan nodded and passed the news to his senior brother, Kuang Tian Zheng, who was in the Flying Dragon Sect.
Duan Ling Tian? Wu Feng? Theyre disciples of the Hidden Fog Sect? Kuang Tian Zhengs reply was swift. Very well. After attending to a few urgent matters, Ill personally confirm this.
After receiving Kuang Tian Zhengs reply, Du Zhan thought to himself, It seems that the matter must be very urgent. Otherwise, with senior brothers personality, he wouldve come over as soon as he could.
Kuang Tian Zheng visited the 10,000 Devils Sect half a month later.
As soon as Kuang Tian Zheng arrived outside of the 10,000 Devils Sects estate, a group of high-ranking officials led by the Sect Leader of the 10,000 Devils Sect was already waiting for him. In fact, they had been waiting for him for two days and a night. All of them greeted him respectfully as soon as they
saw him.
Junior uncle, welcome back to the sect.
Lan Qing, the Sect Leader of the 10,000 Devils Sect, bowed to Kuang Tian Zheng, and his voice was filled with reverence when he greeted Kuang Tian Zheng. In terms of seniority, Kuang Tian Zheng, just like Du Zhan, was his junior uncle.
Lan Qings master had higher seniority than Kuang Tian Zheng and Du Zhan and had joined the 10,000 Devils Sect earlier than the duo. In the past, the duo would address Lan Qings master as senior brother. However, Lan Qings master passed away many years ago during one of the Heavenly
Tribulations.
Welcome back, Elder Tian Zheng!
The group of high-ranking officials behind Lan Qing greeted Kuang Tian Zheng after Lan Qing was done with his greeting. They bowed and looked at him in awe and admiration. After all, many of them grew up listening to stories about Kuang Tian Zheng so they idolized him.
Just like how Xue Hai Quan was a legendary figure in the Hidden Fog Sect, Kuang Tian Zheng was a legendary figure in the 10,000 Devils Sect.
Kuang Tian Zheng nodded slightly at the high-ranking officials before he said with a slight smile, Lan Qing, I havent seen you for so many years; you didnt change at all.
However, Lan Qing could see the smile on Kuang Tian Zhengs face was rather forced. Hence, he said with a sigh, Uncle, my condolences.
Previously, Du Zhan had told Lan Qing about the death of Chu Han before asking him to investigate the disciples of the Hidden Fog Sect.
Condolences?
The high-ranking officials of the 10,000 Devils Sect were stunned upon hearing Lan Qings words. They were unaware of what had happened. They were only gathered here because they heard Kuang Tian Zheng was returning to the 10,000 Devils Sect for a visit. However, they did not know the purpose of
his visit..
