Chapter 1714: Target — The Mystical Sky Mansion!

If his junior brother did not appear, let alone returning quickly, he would not have even been able to return at all. There was a high possibility he might even die in the dungeon one day.

“Master Bai Li, I heard the Windfall Nation’s Imperial Palace had a powerhouse at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage backing them… When that powerhouse saved you, the powerhouse at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage in the Windfall Nation’s Imperial Palace must not have made a move, right?” A Situ Clan’s elder could not help but ask.

Everyone in the Situ Clan, including Situ Hao and Situ Hang, turned to look at Bai Li Hong. They were curious about this matter as well.

The powerhouse who was treated as a distinguished guest in the Windfall Nation’s Imperial Palace was at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage. Even Zi Yun, the Sect Leader of Drift Blaze Sect, was severely injured by him.

“He must have not made a move at all. Otherwise, it would’ve been impossible for Bai Li Hong’s savior to save him,” another Situ Clan’s elder said before Bai Li Hong could respond.

“You have a point. That powerhouse’s at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage after all. If he had intended to stop it, not just anyone would be able to rescue Master Bai Li,” another person added.

If it really was an unknown powerhouse who had rescued him, Bai Li Hong might just smile and not bother with an explanation after hearing their words.

However, because he knew exactly the powerhouse who saved him was not some stranger but his junior brother, he could not stand to listen as these people looked down on his junior brother. “Hurmph! Do you mean Yun Kun? He’s indeed powerful. Apart from having a cultivation base at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage, his background is not simple as well since he came from a quasi third-rate force, the Azure Cloud Mansion.”

“What?!”

“He’s someone from the quasi third-rate force, the Azure Cloud Mansion?”

“My dear Lord… The Windfall Nation’s Imperial Family has a connection with the Azure Cloud Mansion?”

“The Azure Cloud Mansion… It’s said that this force is one of the two most powerful forces among all quasi third-rate forces.”

After finding out that Yun Kun who was treated as a distinguished guest by the Windfall Nation’s Imperial family was actually from the quasi third-rate force, the Azure Cloud Mansion, everyone from the Situ Clan was completely astounded.

Their Situ Clan was merely a seventh-rate force.

That Azure Cloud Mansion, on the other hand, was a quasi third-rate force. Any random powerhouse from such force could easily annihilate the Situ Clan.

“So what if he’s from the Azure Cloud Mansion? He still died in the end!” Bai Li Hong snorted disdainfully.

One must admit the moment Bai Li Hong’s words left his mouth and entered the ears of the Situ Clan’s people, it was as though bolts of lightning had struck them. They were all in a daze for a very long time.

After returning to their senses, nobody said anything for a long time. Instead, they stood looking at one another. All of them could see the bewilderment and disbelief in each other’s eyes.

“Yun Kun’s dead?”

“There’s actually someone who dares to kill someone from the Azure Cloud Mansion? Isn’t he afraid of death?”

Nobody in the Situ Clan doubted Bai Li Hong’s words since this matter would not be able to be hidden for long. Even if Bai Li Hong did not tell them this, they would still find out about it eventually.

What shocked them the most was not the fact that Yun Kun was from the Azure Cloud Mansion. Instead, they were more shocked that someone dared to kill a person from the Azure Cloud Mansion. Was he not afraid of the Azure Cloud Mansion’s retaliation?

The Azure Cloud Mansion was a powerful force that stood at the summit of the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land. It was a force to be reckoned with!

Soon after, many elders from the Situ Clan began to ask about the details of what had happened.

“That powerhouse merely used a slash of a sword to severed Yun Kun in half. Although I’m at the Early Pristine Saint Stage, I didn’t even catch a trace of the sound of the sword whistling in the air. One could tell just how fast the speed of the sword was!” Bai Li Hong added again.

It only took a strike from the sword to kill Yun Kun who was at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage.

For a moment, everyone in the Situ Clan, including Situ Hao and Situ Hang, was stunned.

Bai Li Hong casually brushed the people from Situ Clan off before he bade them goodbye and left, returning to his own residence.

Previously, Feng Wu Dao and Sima Chang Feng were unaware of what had happened.

However, due to the fact that Duan Ling Tian had told them beforehand that Bai Li Hong would return today, they did not leave for the time being and had been waiting in Bai Li Hong’s mansion.

“All of you…” When Bai Li Hong walked into the mansion, he immediately saw Feng Wu Dao and the others. Everyone had a worried expression on their faces. It instantly gave him a sense of warmth in his heart.

“Master Bai Li!” When Feng Wu Dao and the others saw that Bai Li Hong had really returned, they were all pleasantly surprised.

“What? Don’t tell me you didn’t believe my words before this?” At this moment, Duan Ling Tian had returned as well. As soon as he returned, he removed his disguise, reverting to his original appearance.

Seeing the familiar figure and face changed disguise, Bai Li Hong was filled with emotions. He walked forward and patted Duan Ling Tian’s shoulder before sighing emotionally. “Junior Brother, I can’t believe you actually possess strength at the Eminent Saint Stage after more than a year!”

Strength at the Eminent Saint Stage!

This casual remark stunned all the attentive listeners. When Feng Wu Dao, Sima Chang Feng, and the others heard Bai Li Hong’s words, they were all dumbfounded.

Eminent Saint Stage?

At this moment, they were no longer rookies who had just arrived at the Dao Martial Saint Land. Naturally, they knew what Eminent Saint Stage represented.

The Eminent Saint Stage was one of the stages in the Saint Stage.

When a person entered the Saint Stage from the Saint Rudiment Stage, he would reach the Pristine Saint Stage. After the Pristine Saint Stage, it was followed by the Refined Saint Stage. After the Refined Saint Stage, then came the Eminent Saint Stage!

“Master Bai Li, you’re not joking, are you? D-Did you say Duan Ling Tian is an Eminent Saint Stage powerhouse?” Chen Shao Shuai gasped as he looked at Duan Ling Tian in astonishment. It was as though he was looking at a monster.

Nangong Yi gulped before he asked, “Duan Ling Tian, d-did you really break through to the Eminent Saint Stage?”

“No.” Duan Ling Tian shook his head.

Upon hearing Duan Ling Tian’s words, other than Bai Li Hong who seemed to be lost in his own thoughts, Feng Wu Dao, Sima Chang Feng, and the others sighed in relief. “As it turns out, Master Bai Li was just joking!”

“Master Bai Li, please don’t crack such a joke next time. My little heart can’t endure it,” Nangong Yi said with a wry smile.

“Tsk! Do you have a little heart? Who’re you trying to deceive?” Chen Shao Shuai snorted disdainfully.

Bai Li Hong shook his head and no longer said anything when he saw another commotion had broken out.

“I’ve not made a breakthrough to the Eminent Saint Stage yet, but due to some reason, I can cast attacks that are on par with an Eminent Saint Stage powerhouse… Naturally, it’s only limited to ordinary Refined Saint Stage powerhouses,” Duan Ling Tian said in a timely manner just as Bai Li Hong was about to let the matter go.

Apart from Bai Li Hong who had an expression of realization on his face, Feng Wu Dao, Sima Chang Feng, and the others were shocked and only returned to their senses after a long time.

“Freak!’

“Monster!”

Nangong Yi and Chen Shao Shuai looked at Duan Ling Tian for a long time before saying these two words.

“Then, does this mean you’re the one who personally rescued Master Bai Li?” Chen Shao Shuai asked again.

“Let me recount what happened,” Bai Li Hong took control of the situation and began to recount what had happened. Although he was merely describing the incident that had taken place earlier, it felt as though he was reliving the experience again.

“Master Bai Li, don’t you think you’re just too cool? To think that you openly walked out of the dungeon to the Imperial Palace.”

“Although I wasn’t there, I can imagine the expressions of the people in the Imperial Palace,” Chen Shao Shuai and Nangong Yi mused.

However, they quickly shifted their gazes to Duan Ling Tian again, similar to Feng Wu Dao and the others.

What astounded them the most was Duan Ling Tian’s strength.

Yun Kun who came from the quasi third-rate force, Azure Cloud Mansion, with a cultivation base at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage was killed by him with just a strike of his sword.

“Ling Tian boy, that Yun Kun was a disciple from the quasi third-rate force, Azure Cloud Mansion, no matter what… We don’t even know if he was an important person in the Azure Cloud Mansion. If he was, the Azure Cloud Mansion might not just leave this matter at that,” Feng Wu Dao chimed in with a solemn expression.

Upon hearing Feng Wu Dao’s words, Sima Chang Feng and the others broke out in cold sweat on Duan Ling Tian’s behalf.

“So what if the Azure Cloud Mansion refuses to let this matter go? Don’t forget that I didn’t kill him using my original identity. Well, if the Azure Cloud Mansion wants to find the killer, they first have to possess the ability to do that.” Duan Ling Tian, the person involved, was extremely calm and not the least worried while Feng Wu Dao and the others looked worried.

Just like the saying went, ‘Worrying leads to a chaotic mind.’ After listening to Duan Ling Tian’s words, they soon calmed down.

“Uncle Feng, I heard Tian Wu left the sect, but she didn’t find me at all. I wonder if she has returned recently?” Duan Ling Tian asked as he looked at Feng Wu Dao.

“No.” Feng Wu Dao shook his head. Although he knew there was a strong powerhouse protecting his daughter, he could not help but feel worried.

Perhaps, that powerhouse could be considered as the strongest person in Windfall Nation, but that might not be the case elsewhere.

Duan Ling Tian nodded before he said, “Don’t tell anybody about me returning here… With the words I said in the Windfall Nation’s Imperial Palace, the Imperial Family won’t dare to make things difficult for all of you anymore. All of you stay here safely in the Situ Clan. At the time when I possess enough strength, I’ll come and bring all of you away from here. Don’t forget to cultivate as well.”

When Bai Li Hong and the others heard Duan Ling Tian’s words, they knew he was going to leave again. As usual, they were reluctant to part with him.

However, they also knew that Windfall Nation was too small for Duan Ling Tian. There were many places with brilliant prospects where much could be accomplished!

Only the vast outside world was suitable for someone with a monstrous Martial Dao like Duan Ling Tian.

After leaving the Situ Clan and the capital of Windfall Nation, Duan Ling Tian went to the Drift Blaze Sect.

When he reached the Drift Blaze Sect, he learned that Zi Yun was in closed-door cultivation in order to recuperate. He instantly realized how serious the injury she had suffered.

“Please tell Sect Leader Zi Yun that I’ve taken revenge for her.” Since Sect Leader Zi Yun was in closed-door cultivation to recuperate, Duan Ling Tian, naturally, did not bother her. Instead, he asked one of her direct disciples to pass on a message.

When the direct disciple of Sect Leader Zi Yun heard Duan Ling Tian’s words, she merely scoffed. She knew what kind of person had injured her master. Although this pretty little boy that her junior sister had taken a liking to had quite a high innate talent and strength, how could he possibly be able to defeat a powerhouse at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage?

Duan Ling Tian saw the disbelief in her eyes, but he did not explain anything. He believed that it would only take two days at most for the news to spread to the Drift Blaze Sect.

“Finally, it’s time for me to head to Mystical Sky Mansion!”
