Chapter 3740 Who is She?
Upon hearing Supreme Elder Feng and Supreme Elder Leis words, Supreme Elder Yun shook his head and asked, Whats the point? Even if you manage to capture Duan Ling Tian, you cant stop him from contacting others. Hell definitely inform those from the Linghu clan. At that time, the Linghu clan will come to the Hidden Fog Sect to demand his return.
We dont have to give in to their demands, Supreme Elder Feng calmly said, We can just ignore them. They have no way of saving Duan Ling Tian if we refuse to let him go. What can they do? Capture our Hidden Fog Sects disciples? If they dare to do something like this, I dont mind visiting their clan estate.
Thats right! Supreme Elder Lei nodded. Moreover, we can just deny everything. Even if Duan Ling Tian contacts them, theres nothing they can do if we dont admit it. In fact, we can say Duan Ling Tian deliberately did such a thing to provoke a conflict between our sect and the Linghu clan.
Supreme Elder Yun, Supreme Elder Wu, and Qian Yin could sense Supreme Elder Feng and Supreme Elder Leis determination to avenge their disciples. Clearly, they could not be dissuaded.
Suddenly, Supreme Elder Wu, who had been silent for quite a while, looked at Supreme Elder Feng and Supreme Elder Lei and said solemnly, I have to remind you that if youre not completely confident, you better not even think about killing Duan Ling Tian. If news leaks, not only you, but the entire Hidden Fog Sect will suffer from your actions if Duan Ling Tian truly has a strong backer. Even if you think you can hide your actions, its best not to act rashly. Anyone whos not a fool will know both of you have the biggest motive. You can find a chance to capture him, but you cant kill him.
Supreme Elder Lei said, Old Wu, youre not the only one who cares about the sect. Why do you think Old Feng and I didnt kill him immediately when he killed our most beloved disciples? Didnt you hear what I said earlier? I said Ill capture him first, not kill him. As long as he leaves the Linghu clan without protection from Lords of Gods, Im confident well be able to catch him without leaving any traces behind.
Seeing the supreme elders were on the verge of quarreling again, Qian Yun rose to his feet and hurriedly tried to smooth things over. Alright, well do as Supreme Elder Feng suggested. Well imprison him instead of killing him. Once we confirm his background, well let him go or kill him accordingly.
Junior granduncle, wheres Duan Ling Tian?
Just like the other inner disciples who came to watch a show, Tang Wu Yan waited outside the core disciples cultivation ground.
Upon seeing the worried expression on Tang Wu Yans face, Tang Chun said through Voice Transmission, Dont worry. Hes fine.
Wheres he? Tang Wu Yan asked.
Hes been taken away by the Linghu clan, Tang Chun replied.
Linghu clan? Tang Wu Yan was stunned. When did he get involved with the Linghu clan? Did the sect leader ask for help from the Linghu clan to deal with Duan Ling Tian?
Tang Chun was speechless. After a moment, he said, Didnt I say that hes fine? What are you thinking so much for? The Linghu clan saved Duan Ling Tian. Otherwise, he wouldve been imprisoned in Supreme Elder Fengs Little World. At that time, he could only wait for his elders to come and save him. Since the Linghu clan took him away, he doesnt have to trouble his elders anymore.
Tang Chun truly believed Duan Ling Tian had a powerful background. It was not just because what he heard had happened at the Zhou clans auction, but it was also because of Duan Ling Tians talent and comprehension skills. It was not strange for a genius like Duan Ling Tian to come from a powerful force.
Why did the Linghu Clan suddenly appear? Tang Wu Yan asked.
After Tang Chun recounted what happened, Tang Wu Yan said with a frown on her face, As it turns out its Supreme Elder Heng and Supreme Elder Huan who came to save him. However, why did they say hes a member of the clan? When did he join the clan?
Tang Chun remained silent. He had his own conjectures regarding this, but he did not want to tell Tang Wu Yan. However, Tang Wu Yans next words made him realize she had also come to the same conclusion as him.
Does it have something to do with Linghu Chu Yin?!
After Linghu Heng and Linghu Huan brought Duan Ling Tian away, Tang Chun had racked his brains for the connections between Duan Ling Tian and the Linghu clan.
Tang Chun was sure Duan Ling Tian had no connections to the Linghu clan before this since Duan Ling Tian came from Skywind Citys Hidden Fog Academy. Otherwise, he could have directly joined the Linghu clan. With his talent, the Linghu clan would definitely accept him. The only incident that connected Duan Ling Tian to the Linghu clan was the incident in King Descending City where he had openly shown his interest in Linghu Chu Yin, the most beautiful woman in the Linghu clan.
He must have planned everything before he returned to kill Shangguan Xiong Feng and Long Xiao. He was so confident because the two supreme elders from the Linghu clan were with him. He must have joined the Linghu clan because of Linghu Chu Yin even if thats not the only reason. He must have also decided to join the clan because he was determined to kill Shangguan Xiong Feng and Long Xiao. He knew that he wouldnt be able to stay in the sect after killing the duo, Tang Wu Yan said.
Tang Chun nodded. He shared the same thoughts as Tang Wu Yan. When he saw the desolate expression on Tang Wu Yans face, he said with a sigh, Girl, forget about him. Hes not the one for you. Youre both from different worlds.
Duan Ling Tian was in a good mood after leaving the Hidden Fog Sect with Linghu Heng and Linghu Huan.
Previously, Shangguan Xiong Feng and Long Xiao were like a mountain pressing down on his chest, causing him to feel suffocated. He felt so much better now that he had killed both of them.
Kid, youre quite ruthless. Not only did you kill Old Fengs disciple, Shangguan Xiong Feng, but you even killed Old Leis disciple, Long Xiao, Linghu Huan said after he clicked his tongue, Im afraid your name will forever be remembered in the Hidden Fog Sect due to how unforgettable your actions were. The consequences are the same whether I kill one or two of them, Duan Ling Tian said with an icy smile.
Duan Ling Tian had always abided by the principle of not harming others as long as they left him alone. However, he would repay those who harmed him tenfold.
In the past, Shangguan Xiong Feng robbed two Auspicious Pills from him, causing his cultivation base to be stuck at the level of an advanced god. Moreover, earlier, Shangguan Xiong Feng made a move to kill him first. As soon as he made a move, Duan Ling Tian had already sentenced him to death.
As for Long Xiao, the instigator of the matter, Duan Ling Tian knew he could not let Long Xiao leave. Based on how Long Xiao showed up as soon as he returned, it was clear Long Xiao was determined to kill him. He would not allow those who posed a danger to him to live.
How decisive. Kid, your future is bright, Linghu Huan said after a brief moment of silence. He thought about how to respond for a moment before he finally raised his chubby hand and gave Duan Ling Tian a thumbs-up.
At this moment, Linghu Heng, who had been mostly quiet, suddenly looked at Duan Ling Tian and said, They didnt dare to kill you earlier.
Thats right! Linghu Huan suddenly recalled the actions of the high-ranking officials of the Hidden Fog Sect earlier. He asked curiously, Duan Ling Tian, those two supreme elders arent kind. They wouldve killed the person who killed their disciples immediately. It wouldnt matter if that person has high talent or comprehension skills. Why did they decide to only imprison you?
Linghu Huan and Linghu Heng were standing quite a distance away so they did not hear everything that was said. They did not hear Qian Yins words so they were unaware that everyone was under the assumption that Duan Ling Tian came from a powerful force. Moreover, they could tell that when Supreme Elder Feng made a move to capture Duan Ling Tian, the force he used was non-lethal. It was clear to them that he had no intention of hurting or killing Duan Ling Tian and only wanted to capture Duan Ling Tian. Faced with Linghu Hengs curious gaze and Linghu Huans words, Duan Ling Tian said with a straight face, Theyre afraid my sister will look for them to settle accounts if I die.
At the same time, Duan Qiao Yus face appeared in Duan Ling Tians mind. As he remembered the girl he met in Skywind City, he could not help but wonder about her identity again. Moreover, she was insistent that he was her brother and had acted intimately with him as though she was certain he was her brother.
