4290 The Aeon Sword
Duan Ling Tian and Hong Zhang Yi stared at each other in shock, amazement, and disbelief.
After a few moments, Duan Ling Tians eyes glinted coldly while a hint of dread appeared in the depths of Hong Zhang Yis eyes.
At this moment, Hong Zhang Yi no longer had the arrogance he had when he met Duan Ling Tian for the first time. At that time, he had more than a dozen intermediate Supreme Gods with him, giving him the strength to completely suppress Duan Ling Tian. However, at this time, he was alone. Even if the other six people from the Scaling River Land were here at this moment, he did not think he would be able to deal with Duan Ling Tian.
Seeing that Duan Ling Tian was making his way over, Hong Zhang Yi quickly forced a smile on his face and said, Duan Ling Tian... I have no grudge against you. I only tried to kill you previously because I was instigated by my senior brother, whos my grandfathers disciple. He hoped to rank in the top three of the rudimentary Supreme God ranking in the advanced chaotic region so he asked me to help him deal with you.
Hong Zhang Yi, who could keenly sense Duan Ling Tians killing intent, began to struggle to survive. Needless to say, the senior brother he mentioned was a complete fabrication to appease Duan Ling Tian.
Do you think Ill believe you? Duan Ling Tian smiled coldly. Although he thought that the coincidence was too unbelievable, he naturally had no intention of letting Hong Zhang Yi go. This was an amazing opportunity. If he did not seize it, it was likely that he would not be given such an opportunity again. Even if this was not a coincidence and was arranged by someone, he still did not intend to let Hong Zhang Yi go. Only a supreme powerhouse could arrange such a thing. If it was truly arranged by a supreme powerhouse, it meant that the supreme powerhouse likely did not have a good relationship with Hong Zhang Yis grandfather. After all, the supreme powerhouse went out of his or her way to arrange for him and Hong Zhang Yi to meet.
Seeing that his soft approach did not work on Duan Ling Tian, Hong Zhang Yis expression changed again. He did hesitate to switch to a hard approach. Whether it was a hard or a soft approach, it did not matter as long as he could survive. He said in a low and threatening voice, Duan Ling Tian! If you dare to kill me, my grandfather definitely wont let you go! Dont forget that my grandfather is a supreme powerhouse. If he wants to kill you, itll be easier than killing an ant!
Duan Ling Tian only smiled when he heard Hong Zhang Yis threatening words. He said, Hong Zhang Yi, if I kill you today, do you think your grandfather will be able to find out that I did it?
After a pause, Duan Ling Tian continued to say, How about this? Why dont you use the life-saving jade token he gave you? Ill definitely retreat as soon as your grandfathers manifestation appears. What do you think? He doesnt even have to make a move and worry about breaking the rules of the Realm Battlefield. He just needs to show up. Ill definitely retreat out of respect for a supreme powerhouse.
Duan Ling Tians smile grew wider and wider as he spoke. He was confident that Hong Zhang Yi did not possess a life-saving jade token.
You... Hong Zhang Yis face turned red in anger. Although his grandfather loved him dearly, he did not possess the precious life-saving jade token. In fact, he had taken the initiative to ask for one a few years ago, but he was chided by his grandfather in the end.
At the same time, in a hidden place not far from Duan Ling Tian and Hong Zhang Yi.
An old man appeared and asked, Is this really alright? You want to help Duan Ling Tian seek revenge, but Im afraid that if Old Ghost Hong finds out about it, he wont let this matter go.
If Duan Ling Tian heard this voice, he would have been able to recognize it. It belonged to the supreme powerhouse who had helped the Ning clans supreme powerhouse and another supreme powerhouse to pass him fragments of prime divine artifacts.
The old man did not show himself when he spoke to Duan Ling Tian so his voice left a deep impression on Duan Ling Tian. After all, it was the first time a supreme powerhouse had spoken to him.
A young man with an elegant bearing, who stood next to the old man, said indifferently and confidently, So what if he knows? Is he a match for me?
The old man said with a wry smile, Were all on the same side. Isnt it better to avoid conflict if possible?
As long as you dont mention this matter, he will never find out about this matter. Of course, itll also depend on whether Im in a good mood or not... the young man replied indifferently.
The old man shook his head helplessly. Then, he asked curiously, Previously, youve already given him two fragments of prime divine artifacts. Isnt that enough? Why did you decide to help him seek revenge?
The young mans eyes flashed when he heard these words. He nodded slightly and said, Hes truly remarkable. His mastery of the Sword Dao isnt inferior to that of my father in his prime. In fact, its even stronger than mine. Once someone like him becomes a supreme powerhouse, the Aeon Sword will reappear in the God Defying Worlds Outer Boundary.
Upon hearing the words Aeon Sword, the old mans expression turned solemn.
The Aeon Sword was a title given to a legendary figure. He had perished after killing several powerful people who invaded the God Defying World, and his sacrifice allowed the God Defying World to emerge victorious in the battle. That legendary figure also comprehended the law of space and the Sword Dao. He was the strongest sword cultivator in the God Defying World.
That legendary figure was the father of the young man.
At this time, the old man seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes widened. He... Dont tell me that Duan Ling Tian has something to do with your fathers disciple!
The old man thought about how the purple-clad young man had also mastered the Sword Dao.
The young man glanced at the old man and said, Old man, have you been following me?
Upon hearing these words, the old mans eyes brightened and he asked, So theres a connection? Then, he quickly added, If I were following you, you wouldve discovered me. Tell me... What connection does Duan Ling Tian have with your fathers disciple?
The old mans eyes shone with curiosity as he looked at the young man.
The young man looked at the purple figure in the distance before he said calmly, Hes my junior brothers disciple. His Sword Dao comes from my junior brother.
The young mans junior brother was his fathers disciple.
What?! the old man exclaimed in shock, Hes your junior brothers disciple?
After realization dawned on him, the old man muttered, No wonder, no wonder... No wonder you pay so much attention to him. You even delivered Old Ghost Hongs grandson to him! As it turns out, hes your junior nephew!
Duan Ling Tian was unaware that he had now gained a junior uncle who was a supreme powerhouse.
The old man asked, Have you thought about the possibility that he might not make a move against Old Ghost Hongs grandson because hes afraid of Old Ghost Hong?
The young man smiled indifferently and said, It doesnt matter. Ive given him this opportunity, what he does with it is completely up to him. However, if lets this opportunity go to waste, hell only create trouble for himself in the future. After all, I cant protect him all the time. After a brief pause, he said, However, I believe that he will seize this chance...
The young mans eyes were filled with confidence when he looked at Duan Ling Tian.
Duan Ling Tian ignored Hong Zhang Yis hard and soft approach. When Hong Zhang Yi tried to escape, he quickly disrupted the space in the surroundings.
Once Hong Zhang Yi realized that he could not escape, he began to plead for his life.
Duan Ling Tian naturally ignored Hong Zhang Yis pleas. Previously, he almost died because of Hong Zhang Yi. How could he let go of such a good opportunity to avenge himself?
After killing Hong Zhang Yi, Duan Ling Tian looked at his empty surroundings before he cupped his fists together in four directions. He was not certain if his encounter with Hong Zhang Yi was a coincidence or if it was arranged, but he still expressed his gratitude. Following that, he quickly left the valley.
It seems like he figured it out, the old man said.
Hes not stupid, the young man said with a faint smile, Perhaps, it could be considered a coincidence to meet Hong Zhang Yi in the secret realm. However, its too absurd to meet Hong Zhang Yi again after leaving the secret realm... Such a coincidence isnt out of the realm of possibility, but its extremely rare. Its likely that hes not completely certain himself, but hes more inclined to believe that someone intervened.
The young mans smile widened as he continued to say, In any case, his luck is quite good. It just so happened that the secret realm he was pulled into is in our area.
You... the old man shook his head and said, During the 900 years weve been overseeing this place, you smiled the most today... How is it? You must be happy now that you gained a junior brother and a junior nephew. After all, youve been treading on a solitary path up until now...
