Chapter 2682 Revered Elder Tian Ling is Duan Ling Tian?
The Fourth Prince was a legend to the people in King Qins Mansion. His innate talent was undoubtedly the highest among his brothers. His strength had surpassed King Qins current strength 100 years ago. He was widely acknowledged as the strongest person in King Qins Mansion.
Unfortunately, a few decades ago, the Fourth Prince suffered from Qi deviation when he was in closed-door cultivation. Due to that, he had injured King Qin and mistakenly killed his niece. After that, he left King Qins Mansion, never to be seen or heard of again.
As the County Governor of Nine Specters County, Tian Ji Yu had the honor of meeting the Fourth Prince once. Although he thought Qin Yu looked familiar, since it had been a long time since he saw the Fourth Prince, it did not occur to him that Qin Yu resembled the Fourth Prince.
However, after Tian Ji Yu saw Qin Yu casting the Heavenly Dance of Blood Marks, which was exclusive only to the direct descendants of King Qins Mansion, and heard the Third Prince summoned Qin Yu, the Fourth Princes face appeared in his mind, and the puzzles began to click into place.
Meanwhile, a similar thought appeared in the mind of Wang Qi Ling, the County Governor of Fair Mountain County. That Qin Yu from Nine Specters County resembles the Fourth Prince! Now, he realized why he had found Qin Yu familiar when they first met.
The other County Governors who had met the Fourth Prince watched as Qin Yu entered the VIP area. They discussed furtively among themselves and speculated that Qin Yu was the son of the Fourth Prince who had disappeared a few decades ago.
Why does Qin Yu look so similar to the Fourth Prince?
Not only that, but his surname is Qin as well. Could he be a direct descendant of King Qins Mansion who had been left outside all this while?
Its likely that hes the Fourth Princes son!
When the County Governors discussed this matter, their conversations were, naturally, overheard by their subordinates.
Fourth Prince?
Hes the strongest powerhouse in our King Qins Mansion 100 years ago!
Qin Yu from the Nine Specters County is probably the son of the Fourth Prince?
When the County Governors discussed Qin Yu, their subordinates, naturally, overheard their conversation. They were thoroughly shocked by the news. A nobody from Nine Specters County was suddenly suspected to be the Fourth Princes son, a direct descendant of King Qins Mansion!
There were many people who were also invited to sit in the VIP area. Most of these people were from major sects and forces in the places governed by King Qins Mansion. Although they were not as strong as King Qins Mansion, they were stronger than the 16 counties.
A figure shrouded in black robes started as he muttered in a low voice that was only audible to him, Qin Yu? The direct descendant of King Qins Mansion? The son of the Fourth Prince? A hint of surprise could be heard in his voice when he spoke.
This persons black robes were embroidered with flames that formed the word Yang. The words seemed to be ablaze, it was a truly eye-catching design. This robe is the Celestial Masters Robe in the Devata Realms.
The Celestial Masters Robes were exclusive uniforms made by the Alliance of Celestial Masters. Only Celestial Alchemists and Celestial Weapons Craftsmen would be given these robes once they verified their identities at the Alliance of Celestial Masters.
Celestial Masters was the collective name for Celestial Alchemists and Celestial Craftsmen. Therefore, their alliance was called the Alliance of Celestial Masters.
Not many in the Spirit Overarching Heaven would dare to make counterfeits of the Celestial Masters Robes. Anyone who was caught wearing a counterfeit Celestial Masters Robe would be hunted down and killed by the Alliance of Celestial Masters.
The Celestial Masters Robes were divided into four ranks; heaven, earth, yang, and yin. These robes were given to Celestial Alchemists and Celestial Weapons Craftsmen according to their supreme, prominent, mediocre, and primitive ranks.
The man in blacks Celestial Masters Robe was a yin Celestial Masters Robe. This indicated that he was a primitive Celestial Alchemist!
The black-robed man tilted his head and looked at a middle-aged man sitting nearby and asked in a hoarse and deep voice, Vice Sect Leader Huang, is the Fourth Prince stronger than King Qin of King Qins Mansion?
The middle-aged man looked at the black-robed man and smiled as he nodded. Revered Elder Tian Ling, yes, the Fourth Prince is, indeed, stronger than King Qin. It looks like you havent heard about the Fourth Prince? The middle-aged man was Huang Guang Ji, the Vice Sect Leader of Flying Dragon Sect. The Flying Dragon Sect was one of the relatively strong sects in the area governed by King Qins Mansion.
The middle-aged man had led members of the Flying Dragon Sect to watch the Martial Competition of the 16 Counties under the invitation of King Qins Mansion. Although the black-robed man in front of him had just joined the Flying Dragon Sect less than two months ago and was merely one of five primitive Celestial Alchemists, his skill in pill refining far surpassed the other four. Moreover, the Sect Leader of Flying Dragon Sect did not only treat the black-robed man courteously, but the sect leader had also urged him to be respectful to the black-robed man before they departed to the King City of King Qins Mansion. For this reason, he did not dare to put on airs and was very polite to the black-robed man.
The black-robed man nodded before saying indifferently, Ive been traveling a lot all these years. I only arrived in King Qins Mansion two months ago. As it happened, I was just about to have a breakthrough in my cultivation so I chose to temporarily settle in your sect.
Huang Guang Ji, the Vice Sect Leader of Flying Dragon Sect, had heard the sect leader spoke about the black-robed man so he was not surprised by this information. He said enthusiastically, Revered Elder Ling Tian, since youre interested in the Fourth Prince, let me tell you what I know about him...
After listening to Huan Guang Jis explanation, the black-robed man sighed and said, Qin Yu is probably the lost son of the Fourth Prince...
When Huan Guan Ji saw the black-robed lowered his head, lost in his thoughts, and clearly not in the mood to talk, he was not annoyed. After all, he had already gotten used to the black-robed mans anti-social behavior. He thought to himself, Based on Revered Elder Ling Tians hoarse voice, I guess he must be very old.
Naturally, Huang Guang Ji was unaware that the black-robed man was, in fact, a young man who had faked his speaking voice. Underneath the black-robes that hid his appearance and body was a purple-clad young man with a muscular body. If Qin Yu was around and moved the cloth covering his face aside, he would definitely recognize this Revered Elder Tian Ling as Duan Ling Tian!
I think the Third Prince must be trying to verify Qin Yus identity, Duan Ling Tian thought to himself. Although he did not try to look at what was happening behind the curtain, like the others, his mind was definitely focused on what was happening behind the curtain.
Duan Ling Tians thoughts wandered off from Qin Yu to another matter. Anyway, thanks to the rule from King Qins Mansion that allows a county to select a participant to directly participate in the finals, Im able to keep myself hidden until now. Otherwise, there really would be no way for me to hide.
Everyone, including Tian Ji Yu, did not imagine, even in their wildest dreams, that Duan Ling Tian had already arrived in King Qins Mansion. However, he had come with another identity; Revered Elder Ling Tian of the Flying Dragon Sect who was a primitive Celestial Alchemist as could be seen by the yin Celestial Masters Robe he was wearing.
Since Duan Ling Tian was dressed in the yin Celestial Masters Robe, no one dared to probe him with their Divine Consciousnesses. They did not dare to provoke a Celestial Alchemist after all. For this reason, Duan Ling Tian was able to hide his age and identity.
Suddenly, thunderous voices began to ring one after another.
Lord King Qin has arrived!
Lord King Qin has arrived!
Along with the voices, nine white horses appeared, carrying a roofless carriage and flying from somewhere nearby at a speed comparable to an ordinary Great Overarching Golden Celestial. A middle-aged man dressed in purple and gold robes with a majestic air sat in the carriage as a large group of people trailed behind him.
