Chapter 3616: Skywind City
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
When the villagers brought the news back to the three leaders of the Duan Clan Village, they were thoroughly shocked.
Similarly, when the news spread throughout the eastern, northern, and western villages, everyone was shocked. The villagers looked up to those from emperor-rank forces, to begin with. Hence, they were even more amazed when they heard of Duan Ling Tians feat. They were in awe when they found out such a prominent figure actually stepped forward to avenge a branch in their village.
Duan Ling Tian is a disciple of the Glorious Heaven Sect?!
That emperor-rank sect in the Eastern Ridge Mansion? That Glorious Heaven Sect?
A Glorious Heaven Sect disciple killed Second Young Master Qian Fei of the Qian family to avenge the southern village?
Qian Shu Huan, the ancestor of the Qian family, who had become an advanced god 10,000 years ago was defeated by him even though hes just a rudimentary god?
For a rudimentary god to defeat an advanced god, Im afraid only disciples of emperor-rank forces are capable of such a feat.
Although the southern village was just a branch in the Duan Clan Village, they were all related to each other and had many interactions with one another.
I wonder if the disciple of the Glorious Heaven Sect only has ties with the southern village or the entire Duan Clan Village? If its the former, then theres nothing for us to cheer about. Itd be a different story if its the latter. Moreover, if its the latter, doesnt it mean we can now move to Descent Mountain City and gain a foothold there?
The four major forces of Descent Mountain City, the Qian family; the Meng family; the Cloudy Morning Sect; and the Heaven Martial Sect; annihilated the second and fourth branches of the Tian Clan Village just because of Lord Duan Ling Tian whos a Glorious Heaven Sect disciple. I wonder if this means our Duan Clan Village is also under the protection of the four major forces in Descent Mountain City?
Many people in the Duan Clan Village began to develop strange ideas in their heads. This was particularly true for the leaders of the northern and the western village. The two leaders spoke to each other before they decided to look for Duan Ming, the vice leader and the current person in charge of the eastern village.
Duan Ming was personally selected by the leader of the eastern village. It had been a long time since the leader of the eastern village made an appearance so Duan Ming handled all the affairs of the eastern village. It was only natural that the respective leaders of the northern and the western villages would look for him when they had something important to discuss.
The leader of the western village asked as soon as he saw Duan Ming, Did you hear the recent news?
What about it?
Duan Ming was a middle-aged man with a medium build and an elegant appearance. He looked gentle with a warm smile on his face.
Duan Ming, stop playing the fool, the leader of the northern village shook his head and said, You know were talking about the sudden influx of visitors to the southern village. You must have heard about how Duan Ling Tian said he had ties to the southern village, right? Most importantly, you must have heard that hes a disciple of the Glorious Heaven Sect!
Oh, so thats why you came to see me, Duan Ming said, Im not the only one who has heard of it. Everyone in the eastern village has heard about it as well. However, what does it have to do with your visit?
The leader of the western village scoffed. Duan Ming, I dont believe you dont know our intentions. Youre the smartest person in the Duan Clan Village so stop acting dumb.
Duan Ming smiled wryly upon hearing these words. I really dont know why youre here. I can only gather its about the Glorious Heaven Sect disciple.
Thats right, the leader of the northern village bluntly said, Weve both discussed this beforehand. Since Lord Duan Ling Tian has ties with the Duan Clan Village, we should ask him for a favor. We should ask him to help us gain a foothold in Descent Mountain City.
Apart from the four major forces, most of the small forces with rudimentary gods in Descent Mountain City were allied with the four major forces through marriages and other means. Hence, it was rather difficult for a force or clan with no support to settle down in Descent Mountain City.
Since a long time ago, the ancestors of the Duan Clan Village had long wanted to settle down in Descent Mountain City. Despite their numerous attempts, even when they had a rudimentary god in their ranks, they continued to fail. Moreover, the rudimentary god was almost killed from one of their attempts. As a result, that rudimentary god had vowed not to return to the Duan Clan Village until he was strong enough to lead the village to settle down in Descent Mountain City. For this reason, many villagers had been waiting for that rudimentary god to return and lead them to glory.
Needless to say, they were not just waiting idly. They had tried other means to settle down in Descent Mountain City. There was no lack of people who were willing to sacrifice the happiness of their daughters or granddaughters just to help the Duan Clan Village gain a foothold in the Duan Clan Village.
Unfortunately, unless the women were talented and smart, the four major forces in Descent Mountain City would not allow their descendants to marry them. At most, these women would only become concubines. However, this did not help them in their quest to settle down in the city. After all, the city would be overcrowded if all the concubines relatives were allowed to move into the city.
Apart from that, we made a bold speculation. Is it possible that the Glorious Heaven Disciple is that rudimentary god from our clan in the past?
Duan Ming was stunned by these words. When he recovered, he said, The names of our ancestors are listed down in the family tree. The name of that rudimentary god isnt Duan Ling Tian.
Perhaps, he changed his name for some reason?
Thats right! Theres also a possibility that Duan Ling Tian is his descendant! Otherwise, how could the southern village have ties with such a prominent figure?
Duan Ming thought the two leaders were being absurd. I think youre both thinking too much. If hes really the descendant of our ancestor, he wouldve long brought us to Descent Mountain City. Why would there be no news of him after he avenged the southern village?
Duan Ming thought that the two old men in front of him had gone mad from their desperation to settle down in Descent Mountain City. Their obsession had clearly clouded their judgments.
You have a point. However, are you really willing to let go of a golden opportunity such as this?
Then, what do you think I should do?
Duan Ming, why dont you go to Descent Mountain City to meet Duan Ling Tian. Verify if hes related to our Duan clan. If he is, ask him to help our Duan Clan Village!
Me?
If it were possible, both of us wouldve gone to meet him ourselves. However, were just two old men who arent good with words. Youre eloquent so youre most suited to meet him.
I dont think both of you are bad with words at all. Look at how well youre speaking right now.
Duan Ming, if you dont go, youll feel guilty toward the ancestors of our clan for the rest of your life!
In the end, Duan Ming had no choice but to go to Descent Mountain City after being pressured. Initially, he was a little nervous. After all, he had no idea if the Glorious Heaven Disciple had a bad temper or not. However, when he discovered the Glorious Heaven Sect disciple had left Descent Mountain City, he sighed in relief and returned to the Duan Clan Village.
However, the two leaders of the Duan Clan Village still did not give up even after they learned that Duan Ling Tian had left Descent Mountain City.
Even if hes no longer in the city, I think our village can try to move to the city. Even if the four major forces in Descent Mountain City dont protect us, I dont think theyll drive us away. Moreover, now that Lord Duan Ling Tian has left, whos to say hell return? Its like a prominent figure like him will never return to such a remote place. If thats the case, we can imply that he has ties with the entire Duan Clan Village, not just the southern village.
The two leaders tried to convince Duan Ming to join them and bring the people from the eastern village to Descent Mountain City.
Unlike the two old men, Duan Ming was very rational. Naturally, he refused the two old men. He said Im sorry, but I cant decide on such an important matter. Ill have to wait for the leader to return.
Alright. Well move to Descent Mountain City first. I hope the people from the eastern village wont blame you for not bringing them to the eastern city.
The two leaders no longer tried to persuade Duan Ming after seeing how firm he was. They brought their people with them and left for Descent Mountain City soon after.
Unsurprisingly, they were driven away.
Are you crazy? The Duan Clan Village has ties with Lord Duan Ling Tian, a disciple of Glorious Heaven Sect! How dare you drive us away! Arent you afraid of offending him?
Since they were driven by allied forces of the Qian family, the Cloudy Morning Sect, and the Heaven Martial Sect, they went to look for help from the Meng family.
Coincidentally, the person who came to see them was Meng Qi You, the divine pill alchemist from the Meng family. When he learned of their intention, he smiled coldly as he said, Before Young Master Duan left, Id asked him if he had any ties to the other three branches in the Duan Clan Village. He said that he only lived in the southern village and has no interactions with the other branches. How dare you try to take advantage of Young Master Duan?
The people from the northern and southern villages were waiting nervously for their two leaders outside the Meng family estate when they received news that their leaders had been killed by Meng Qi You and that Duan Ling Tian had specifically said he had no connections with the Duan Clan Village apart from the southern village. With that, they could only return to the Endless Mountain with great disappointment.
Duan Ming could only sigh and shake his head when he received the news.
As for Duan Ling Tian, he was naturally unaware of the incidents happening in Descent Mountain City and the Endless Mountain after he left.
At this time, he had finally arrived at the populous Eastern Ridge Mansions Skywind City.
