Chapter 3857: Ding Yan Has Taken the Bait
After safely returning to Flying Dragon City, Ding Yan sighed in relief.
Unlike Duan Ling Tian, the identity tokens the group obtained would be given to the leader for safekeeping. They would divide the identity tokens once they completed their mission.
Ding Yan followed his group members to Peace City to exchange for war points.
After they were done, someone asked, Ding Yan, do you have anything you want in Peace City?
Ding Yan shook his head, Yes. I browsed around previously and saw many things I need. Alas, I dont have enough war points to exchange for them now.
After that, Ding Yan bade his fellow disciples farewell and returned to Flying Dragon City. When he was near the exit of the Imperial War Realm that led to the Flying Dragon Sects estate, he saw two suspicious men who were acting sneaky.
The two men surveyed their surroundings before they began to whisper to each other, unaware that Ding Yan was now behind them.
We cant let too many people know about the Divine Sanctuary thats left behind by an advanced Emperor of Gods.
Of course! However, we need a certain number of people to enter the Divine Sanctuary, right? We should look for Lords of Gods to help us.
Absolutely not! Were just advanced Kings of Gods. If we invite the Lords of Gods, do you think well have a chance to obtain anything in the Divine Sanctuary?
At this moment, one of the men suddenly turned around. His expression changed, and his eyes flashed with killing intent when he saw Ding Yan standing behind him. He looked at Ding Yan menacingly and said to his friend, Someones behind us. Then, he asked Ding Yan, Were you eavesdropping on our conversation? Did you hear us?
The two young men were inner disciples of the Flying Dragon Sect. One was dressed in a long blue robe, and the other was dressed in a white and gray long robe. Both of them did not conceal their hostility as they looked at Ding Yan.
Yes, Ding Yan replied honestly. They would not believe him anyway if he said no. At this moment, desire burned in his heart when he recalled the two mens conversation. He would definitely have a fortuitous encounter if he could enter a Divine Sanctuary left behind by an Emperor of Gods.
All of a sudden, one of the men suddenly frowned. Then, his eyes flashed as he asked, Are you Ding Yan?
Yes. Ding Yan nodded.
The other men asked in confusion, Ding Yan? Do you know him?
Following that, the two men walked to the side and discussed among themselves.
Not really, no. I only heard that Ding Yan was brought to our sect by Revered Elder Sikong. He only officially joined the sect after the Latent Dragon Grand Contest with Duan Ling Tian and Hua Tian Du.
Revered Elder Sikong? The father of Senior Sister Sikong Yue, the Green Dragon Disciple?
No, I dont. Ive only heard before that Ding Yan was brought to the Flying Dragon Sect by our sects Revered Elder Sikong. He didnt join the Flying Dragon Sect until he participated in the Latent Dragon Grand Contest together with Duan Ling Tian and Hua Tian Du.
Revered Elder Sikong? You mean the Green Dragon Disciple, Senior Sister Sikong Yues father?
Thats right.
Following that, the two men approached Ding Yan again.
Ding Yan tried his best to stay calm as his heart raced in his chest. It was not too difficult since he knew the two men could not possibly kill him Flying Dragon City.
Ding Yan, the blue-clad young man said in a low voice, Since you overheard our conversation, Ill give you two choices. You can either join us to go to the Divine Sanctuary, and well even allow you to bring another person with you, or if youre not interested, you have to swear on the Devils Heart Blood Oath that you wont disclose what you heard to anyone. Apart from that, well also give you 1,000 contribution points. If youre interested in joining us, youll also have to swear on the Devils Heart Blood Oath to keep this matter a secret. Oh, right, you should bring Sikong Yue if you decide to join us since you have a good relationship with Revered Elder Sikong. Naturally, Sikong Yue will also have to swear to keep the matter a secret if she accepts your invitation.
Since Sikong Yue is stronger than us, shell also have to swear on the Devil Hearts Blood Oath that she wont attack us while were in the Divine Sanctuary.
Ding Yan was initially slightly skeptical, but he became more and more convinced when he saw how cautious the two men were. When the duo stopped talking, he finally said, I have a request. I have no objections to your conditions, but I dont want Sikong Yue to join us. I want to bring Duan Ling Tian instead. Hes not a Lord of Gods.
The two mens expressions changed slightly when they heard Duan Ling Tians name.
Duan Ling Tian?
Duan Ling Tian who killed 100 disciples from the Tai Yi Sect on the King Battlefield in less than a year?
Duan Ling Tian whos said to be as strong as a rudimentary Lord of Gods?
Ding Yan nodded. Yes.
No! One of the young men shook his head decisively and said, Duan Ling Tian is too strong. Hes even stronger than Sikong Yue. We wont be able to gain any benefits at all if he joins us. I still think you should bring Sikong Yue.
However, the other man said, If Duan Ling Tian joins us, then we dont need to look for so many people to join us. After all, hes strong enough to replace a few people. With fewer people, our benefits will increase as well. Although its true that we might not gain anything he joins, its also not without its advantages if he joins us.
Ding Yan watched the two men with a slight frown. He was really reluctant to bring Sikong Yue with him. The first person he thought of was Duan Ling Tian. Finally, he said threateningly, You said you only want to bring a King of Gods, and Duan Ling Tian is a King of Gods. If youre not willing, Ill spread the news about your discovery after leaving the Imperial War Realm. At that time, everyone will hound you endlessly, and you wont gain anything in the end.
Upon hearing these words, the two mens expressions turned hostile. They looked at each other for a long time.
Eventually, the blue-clad young man said solemnly, Very well. Well let Duan Ling Tian join us. However, he has to swear on the Devils Heart Blood Oath that he wont monopolize all the treasures in the Divine Sanctuary. Since hes stronger, he can have 30% of things in there. The remaining 70% will be equally divided among everyone else.
Ding Yan nodded. Alright. How many people do you plan to invite? I suggest you dont invite too many people.
With Duan Ling Tian in our group, well only invite another four people. This means each of us, apart from Duan Ling Tian, will get 10% of the treasures in the Divine Sanctuary.
Upon hearing this, Ding Yan thought the two men were rather optimistic. They did not seem to consider any risks at all after entering the Divine Sanctuary. He asked, Didnt you think about the danger in there? If one of us is in danger, well definitely have to rely on Duan Ling Tian to save us. For that reason, I think Duan Ling Tian should get 40% of the share. His share will increase if any of us dies.
The two men remained silently; they were clearly discussing the matter through Voice Transmission. After a moment, they nodded.
Alright. Its a deal.
In the Flying Dragon Sects estate.
Duan Ling Tian left the Imperial War Realm quite a while ago.
He should be cultivating now.
Ding Yan and the two inner disciples quickly made their way to the inner disciples cultivation ground. Alas, they did not find Duan Ling Tian.
In the end, Ding Yan said to the two men, Ill get in touch with you after I speak to Duan Ling Tian.
The trio exchanged Soul Pearls before they parted ways.
After that, the two men entered the same courtyard. They activated an isolation Formation before they began to speak.
The fish has taken the bait, the blue-clad young man said with a grin, Inform Elder Kuang about this.
Elder Kuang is definitely going to reward us greatly when he hears about this, the other man said happily.
Obviously, these men were sent by Kuang Tian Zheng to lure Duan Ling Tian out of the Flying Dragon Sect by fabricating lies about the Divine Sanctuary left behind by an Emperor of Gods.
After receiving the message from the two men, Kuang Tian Zheng smiled. Its easier than I thought. It seems like Ding Yan didnt doubt the veracity of those mens words at all.
