Chapter 2030: The Fire Worship Sect’s Eighth Prodigy

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Although Chen Peng said Duan Ling Tian was slandering him, a hint of shock and disbelief could be seen in the depths of his eyes. His eyes had completely betrayed him.

Suddenly a cry resonated in the Fire Remuneration Palace. A Saint Land disciple seemed to have recalled something as he cried out in surprise, “I remember now!”

Many people present on the scene shifted their attention to this Saint Land disciple immediately.

With all the attention on him, the Saint Land disciple was a little nervous, but he still said, “Do any of you remember? When Duan Ling Tian killed the Vermilion Bird Sanctum’s disciples, Yuan Hong and his brother, Yuan Kuang, he was pardoned by the Enforcement Hall! At that time, we thought Duan Ling Tian has an extraordinary background and that was why the Enforcement Hall had intentionally let him go. In hindsight, it’s possible the Enforcement Hall has known since then that Duan Ling Tian has a blue Innate Spiritual Root!” The Saint Land disciple revealed everything he remembered without leaving any details out.

The Fire Remuneration Palace fell silent again.

“Something like that happened?” Dong Lin narrowed his eyes. His expression turned even graver. Since he had just returned to the Fire Worship Sect, he was unaware that Duan Ling Tian had been pardoned by the Enforcement Hall. Otherwise, he would not look for trouble with Duan Ling Tian in a hurry!

Would a person who was pardoned by the Enforcement Hall be somebody ordinary? As an Enforcement Hall’s elder, Dong Lin, naturally, knew the answer to this.

To outsiders, Chen Peng was his friend. However, in Dong Lin’s eyes, Chen Peng was only his follower. Since he had come of age, he was no longer a true disciple and had become a Bronze Flame Elder. For this reason, Chen Peng no longer followed him as closely as before.

If Dong Lin had known that Duan Ling Tian had been pardoned by the Enforcement Hall before, even if Chen Peng was his brother, he would not have simply come looking for trouble with Duan Ling Tian. He even abused his power solely to make things difficult for him.

If this matter was not dealt with properly, it would be difficult for Dong Lin to escape from being severely punished even if he was an Enforcement Hall’s elder and the only son of one of the Vice Hall Masters in the Enforcement Hall.

“Now that you mentioned it, I think I remember something like that happening!”

“It seems like the Enforcement Hall knew Duan Ling Tian possesses a blue Innate Spiritual Root that’s why the Enforcement Hall didn’t punish him. There’s an unspoken rule about this after all.”

“It seems like the rumor is wrong. Duan Ling Tian doesn’t have a yellow Innate Spiritual Root. Instead, he has a blue Innate Spiritual Root!”

The group of Saint Land disciples in the Fire Remuneration Palace finally pieced the puzzle together.

As it turned out, the Enforcement Hall had long known that Duan Ling Tian possessed a blue Innate Spiritual Root. Only Dong Lin was unaware of it.

“Elder Dong Lin is really unlucky. Based on Duan Ling Tian’s words, Elder Dong Lin must have only recently come out of closed-door cultivation or recently returned to the sect.”

“Isn’t it obvious? Otherwise, Elder Dong Lin wouldn’t have thought that Duan Ling Tian has a yellow Innate Spiritual Root!”

“He and Duan Ling Tian are strangers. He only made things difficult for Duan Ling Tian today because of Chen Peng. It seems like Chen Peng has made a fool out of him!

As many of the Saint Land disciples discussed among themselves, they shifted their attention to Chen Peng.

Upon hearing these words, Chen Peng’s face turned green immediately. What did they mean by he had made a fool out of Dong Lin? Prior to this, he was also unaware that Duan Ling Tian possessed a blue Innate Spiritual Root!

Chen Peng felt like dying when he sensed Dong Lin’s cold gaze swept over him. He knew that after today, Dong Lin would probably ignore him since he must also felt that he had been fooled.

Chen Peng felt extremely remorseful at this moment. Why did he have to be so rash?

The Fire Remuneration Palace was extremely noisy now that everyone learned Duan Ling Tian possessed a blue Innate Spiritual Root. It finally made sense why the Enforcement Hall would take special care and even pardon Duan Ling Tian previously. This was all due to his blue Innate Spiritual Root. After all, the people he killed were only Vermilion Bird Sanctum’s disciples with ordinary innate talent and would not impact the Fire Worship Sect greatly.

“I can’t believe Duan Ling Tian actually possesses a blue Innate Spiritual Root. Looking back, all those comments about the limit of his cultivation base being at the peak of the Exemplary Saint Stage sounds so ridiculous now!”

“Indeed! As long as a martial genius with a blue Spiritual Root doesn’t suddenly die or decide to stop cultivating, he would definitely be able to successfully break through to the Saint Celestial Stage!”

“I can’t imagine how terrifying Duan Ling Tian’s strength would be once he breaks through to the Saint Celestial Stage!”

“His strength would be extremely formidable! Currently, it seems like his cultivation base is at the peak of the Exemplary Saint Stage, right?”

“It should be higher than that! Earlier, before he cast his assist-type Divine Ability to raise his Saint Energy, I noticed his energy is similar to a powerhouse at the Early Quintessential Saint Stage!”

“In that case, does it mean he has already broken through to the Early Quintessential Saint Stage?!”

The group of Saint Land disciples in the Fire Remuneration Palace discussed among themselves. They concluded that Duan Ling Tian’s cultivation base was at the Early Quintessential Saint Stage. They continued to marvel over Duan Ling Tian’s strength.

“Although his cultivation base is only at the Early Quintessential Saint Stage, his strength can be considered to be on par with those at the peak of the Second Form of the Saint Celestial Stage!”

“I think so too! Just the sword technique he has mastered alone is enough for him to be ranked on the Supreme Saint Ranking!”

“I can’t believe there’s another prodigy among the younger generation in the Fire Worship Sect who’s qualified to be ranked on the Supreme Saint Ranking!”

The younger generation who were elite disciples in the Fire Worship Sect were true disciples. If they managed to rank on the Supreme Saint Ranking, they would bring honor and glory to the Fire Worship Sect. Someone like that would be widely acknowledged as a prodigy as well.

For example, the seven people, including Gan Ru Yan, who were ranked on the Supreme Ranking were considered as prodigies in the Fire Worship Sect. The Fire Worship Sect had seven prodigies, and they were known as the Seven Great Prodigies.

The Seven Great Prodigies in the Fire Worship Sect were powerhouses who were famous in the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land. They were widely acknowledged as elite powerhouses among the younger generation in the Upper Province!

“From today onward, there’s another prodigy in the Fire Worship Sect. The sect now has eight prodigies instead of seven. It won’t be long before the names of the eight prodigies spread in the Dao Martial Saint Land!” Many Saint Land disciples marveled.

Prodigy?

Eight Great Prodigies?

Upon hearing these Saint Land disciples’ words, Duan Ling Tian raised his brow. However, his expression was still very calm.

‘Gan Ru Yan, Ke’er’s twin sister, is considered a prodigy in the Fire Worship Sect?’ Duan Ling Tian mused in his heart. He still remembered when he first met her. He was indeed shocked by her strength.

Even the Five-clawed Golden Dragon, Di Jue, from the dragon clan did not dare act recklessly in front of her. At that time, Di Jue’s cultivation base had already reached the peak of the Divine Saint Stage.

However, Duan Ling Tian’s strength is chasing up to Gan Ru Yan so he was no longer as shocked as he was before by her strength.

Soon after, Duan Ling Tian shifted his attention back to Dong Lin and said, “Elder Dong Lin, since it has already come to this, don’t you think it’s time for you to give me an answer?”

Dong Lin took Duan Ling Tian by surprise. He no longer hesitated and instantly announced, “From this moment on, Duan Ling Tian is no longer banned from serving in the Enforcement Hall!” His voice was loud and clear, and his words were very direct. It even caused Duan Ling Tian to feel suspicious.

“On top of that…” Dong Lin was not finished. He looked at Duan Ling Tian and bowed to apologize to Duan Ling Tian in front of everybody in the Fire Remuneration Palace. “Duan Ling Tian, previously, I was unaware that you possess a blue Innate Spiritual Root so I banned you from serving in the Enforcement Hall. Now that I learned you possess a blue Innate Spiritual Root, I’d like to sincerely apologize!”

Dong Lin’s words caused everyone in the Fire Remuneration Palace to fall silent.

Dong Lin’s action was extremely shocking.

‘Dong Lin really knows how to adapt to situations quite well!’ Duan Ling Tian’s expression turned grave instead of being happy when he saw this. ‘Although he’s apologizing to me, he’s actually absolving himself of his crimes. Now that he has apologized, he won’t be severely punished even if the Enforcement Hall chooses to investigate this matter!’

After apologizing, before the Saint Land disciples in the Fire Remuneration Palace regained their senses, Dong Lin left the Fire Remuneration Palace.

This time, Duan Ling Tian did not stop him since he had achieved his goal. He could finally accept the assignment from the Enforcement Hall! This meant he would be able to see Ke’er and their daughter soon.

Outside the Fire Remuneration Palace.

As soon as Dong Lin walked out of the great entrance of the Fire Remuneration Palace, his calm gaze suddenly turned piercing. An intense hatred rose in his heart.

“Duan Ling Tian, you better watch out. Otherwise, I’ll make sure you don’t have a chance to rise!”
