This is as real as I can get, Duan Ling Tian said firmly when he heard Gan Ru Yans question again. His voice was extremely cold that it seemed like the temperature in the surroundings had dropped by a few degrees.
When she heard Duan Ling Tians firm answer, although Gan Ru Yan still found it hard to believe, she saw a familiar look in the young mans eyes. When she had brought her younger sister away from the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land, the young mans gaze was similar to this young man. Now that she thought about it, they seemed to be the same person.
H-how did you become so strong? Gan Ru Yan gasped. Although she still found it hard to believe, she had no choice but to believe it.
Duan Ling Tian who was standing before had become so strong that he had even surpassed her.
Its not your business how I became so strong. Ive told you. I came here to see Keer and our daughter. Im not here to see you. Where are they? Duan Ling Tian asked.
Since youre not here to see me, why didnt you directly go and see them? Gan Ru Yan asked.
At this moment, Gan Ru Yan did not notice her tone had turned warmer when she spoke to Duan Ling Tian. It was no longer as arrogant as before.
It seemed as though Gan Ru Yan had acknowledged Duan Ling Tians strength or maybe she was moved by the way he came to the Fire Worship Sect just to look for her younger sister. Most importantly, Gan Ru Yan who originally hated Duan Ling Tian suddenly felt that he was worthy of her sister. Previously, she thought Duan Ling Tian was a toad and completely unworthy of her sister.
However, after Gan Ru Yan had witnessed Duan Ling Tians strength, her mindset began to change. Even she did not notice it yet.
Do you think the Enforcement Hall is going to let me see Keer and our daughter just because I ask them? Duan Ling Tian smiled coldly.
Gan Ru Yan finally understood when she heard his words. Her sister was different from her. Her sister had committed a serious crime in the Fire Worship Sect. Her status was currently very sensitive. Even a Golden Flame Elder might not be able to see her sister, let alone Duan Ling Tian.
In the beginning, they were with me. Gan Ru Yan sighed. When I brought Yu Yan back, I hid her in my residence until she gave birth to your daughter.
Yu Yan? Duan Ling Tian raised a brow. He figured Yu Yan was Keer other name.
Yu Yan named your daughter Duan Si Ling, Gan Ru Yan said as she looked at Duan Ling Tian.
Duan Si Ling!
Her words caused Duan Ling Tian to fall into a daze. His heartbeat quickened as though it was stirred by something.
Little Feier had named his son Duan Nian Tian.
Keer had named his daughter Duan Si Ling.
Although the names were different, the meaning was the same. They all meant that they missed Duan Ling Tian.
Since you managed to find your way here, it means youve heard of what happened after. I hid Yu Yans matter from everyone. However, in the end, Wen Yan found out about it and went to the Enforcement Hall to report me. When Gan Ru Yan mentioned Wen Yan, her eyes flashed piercingly.
If it was not for Wen Yan, she and her sister would not be imprisoned by the Enforcement Hall.
Due to Wen Yans report, Yu Yan and her daughter were brought away by the Enforcement Hall. On the other hand, I went to look for my master, Guardian Qing Huo. Hes one of the three great Guardians in the sect. Originally, I wanted to ask him for help. However, he said Im confused and asked me to surrender to the Enforcement Hall. Gan Ru Yan sighed. I know master said that for my own good. When Lord Sect Master comes out of his closed-door cultivation, he might forgive my crime since I took the initiative to surrender and also for the sake of my master. Master even said theres nothing he could do regarding Yu Yans matter. That will depend on what Lord Sect Leader decides to do!
Gan Ru Yans expression gradually turned grim. A hint of worry could be seen in her eyes when she finished speaking.
Decide? Whats there to decide? Duan Ling Tian smiled coldly when he heard Gan Ru Yans words. Put aside that its not Keers fault for being abandoned in the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land, why does the Fire Worship Sect insist on interfering with her life? We fell in love and have a daughter. What does this have to do with the Fire Worship Sect? Who is the Fire Worship Sect to dictate her life? What right do they have to decide if she lives or dies? Duan Ling Tians voice trembled a little when he reached the end of his sentence. It was obvious he was extremely furious. It was as though he was venting all the anger he had been suppressing.
I know you feel dissatisfied, but how are you different from me? Gan Ru Yan smiled wryly. You asked me earlier if I still think I made the right choice by bringing Yu Yan back to the Fire Worship Sect. Let me tell you, I think its the right choice. This is because as long as Yu Yan stays in the Lower Province, the people from the Fire Worship Sect will eventually find her. I just didnt expect that after I found her and hid her safely, she would still be discovered!
Killing intent appeared when she finished speaking. It was obvious it was directed at Wen Yan.
Duan Ling Tian had also calmed down after he vented his anger.
Based on Gan Ru Yans words, it was obvious she cared about Keer. Perhaps, her way of caring for Keer was not to his liking, but she still did it with good intentions.
I really dont know what youre thinking by bringing her back to the sect. Cant you have hidden her outside? Duan Ling Tian could not help but mock Gan Ru Yans stupid decision.
Hide her outside? Do you think I can do that without worrying about her? Gan Ru Yan asked in a deep voice, Thats my biological sister whom Ive been separated from for many years. Even if I dont see her for half a day, Ill be worried if something has happened to her! Moreover, in my opinion, the most dangerous place is also the safest place. All in all, I just didnt expect Wen Yan to be watching me so closely that she even found out about Yu Yan! The killing intent in her eyes became even more intense when she spoke about Wen Yan again.
Sensing Gan Ru Yans genuine sorrow, Duan Ling Tian no longer blamed her. Instead, he changed the topic and asked, Do you know where Keer and our daughter are being imprisoned?
No, I dont. Gan Ru Yan shook her head. The Prison Hall is huge, and there are many stone prisons here. Yu Yan and her daughter must be locked up in one of the stone rooms. Dont worry. The Enforcement Hall wont dare to harm her at all before the Sect Leader comes out of closed-door cultivation. However, when he comes out, Im afraid Yu Yan and her daughter... Pain and regret filled her eyes when she reached the end of her sentence.
If I have a chance to do things over, Ill leave her in the Lower Province. Although I think its the wrong choice, at least she and her daughter would be able to spend more time with you before being taken away by the people from the Fire Worship Sect. Currently, its still unknown if youll be able to reunite with them. At some point, tears began streaming down Gan Ru Yans face. It seemed like she did not think her sister would be able to survive.
Well definitely be able to reunite! Duan Ling Tian replied determinedly. Ill definitely save Keer and our daughter before the Sect Leader of the Fire Worship Sect comes out of closed-door cultivation! If something happens to the two of them because of the Sect Leader, not only will I kill him, but Ill destroy the foundation of the sect with my own hands. Ill make it disappear from the Dao Martial Saint Land and remain in history! Duan Ling Tians voice was exceedingly cold. It would send chills running up the spines of those who listened to it.
If it was before, Gan Ru Yan would have felt that Duan Ling Tian had overestimated himself when she heard these words. However, now that she had witnessed the changes in his strength after just a few years, she did not doubt his words at all.
Duan Ling Tian had that potential!
Perhaps, Sect Leader wouldnt simply harm Yu Yan when you expose your strength. However, thats only if you can demonstrate strength that will make the Fire Worship Sect afraid of you! Gan Ru Yan said excitedly with bright eyes when she heard his words, Naturally, you cant stay in the Fire Worship Sect, and you cant let them find you. Otherwise, the Sect Leader can just kill you before you reach your full potential!
Her words encouraged Duan Ling Tian. It even made him feel like revealing his potential to the Fire Worship Sect.
It seems like I must leave the Fire Worship Sect immediately as soon as I leave the Enforcement Hall! When I return and show them I have a violet Innate Spiritual Root, itll shock the sect and the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land! Duan Ling Tian made a decision. As long as Fire Worship Sects Sect Leader hasnt come out of closed-door cultivation, I still stand a chance of forcing the sect to not harm Keer and our daughter recklessly with my potential. As long as they cant kill me, they wont dare to touch both of them!
