Chapter 3452: The Heavenly Emperor of the Luo River Heaven Appears
“Brother Duan! Do you still remember me?” At this moment, the person sitting next to Zhang Tian You on the row of seats behind Duan Ling Tian suddenly greeted Duan Ling Tian enthusiastically.
When Duan Ling Tian turned around, he recognized the tall and burly handsome young man who was smiling innocently at him immediately. He smiled and nodded. “I remember you. Tang San Pao, right?”
Although half a year had passed since their first meeting, Duan Ling Tian still remembered the young genius who struck up a conversation with him when he had just arrived at the Heavenly Palace of the Primeval Heaven. The young man had asked for his name at the time and took the initiative to offer up his name as well. Hence, he remembered the young man’s name was Tang San Pao.
“You’re right.” Tang San Pao nodded happily with a bright smile on his face. “I didn’t expect you to remember me.”
“Are you here alone? Where are your friends?” Duan Ling Tian looked around briefly and saw that Tang San Pao seemed to be sitting next to Zhang Tian Yao alone. He thought perhaps Tang San Pao only came over to greet him.
“I don’t have any friends here.” Tang San Pao shook his head. “I went to the Title Temple alone to take the test and followed them here. I’m not familiar with the other participants who were selected as well…”
Duan Ling Tian was slightly surprised when he heard Tang San Pao’s words. After all, he remembered how Tang San Pao had approached him when they first met. “You should have no trouble making friends, right? You’re so outgoing after all…”
Tang San Pao smiled sheepishly, “I used to stay in the mountains. Therefore, I get excited whenever I meet people outside of the mountain. However, whenever I greet them, they would ignore me. Some people even scolded me. In fact, you’re the first person who returned my greeting…” He sighed at the end of his words.
Duan Ling Tian smiled in response. He did not think Tang San Pao was lying, but he could tell the people Tang San Pao greeted or approached were extraordinary people. It was not surprising that these extraordinary people were arrogant and would not bother with strangers approaching them. In fact, he had been rather impatient as well with the chatterbox when they first met.
“Brother Duan, when the group of young geniuses said you must be weak since you’re too young, I didn’t agree with them,” Tang San Pao said as he glanced at Zhang Tian You and the others, causing them to feel embarrassed. His eyes shone as bright as the stars as he continued to say excitedly, “How could the true disciple of the Heavenly Emperor of the Solitary Destructive Heaven be ordinary? Indeed, you didn’t fail to meet my expectations! You even defeated the fourth true disciple of the Heavenly Emperor of the Pavilion Shaft Heaven with just a strike. I’m really excited about the Battle of the Geniuses; I can’t wait to battle you, Brother Duan.”
“You can’t wait to battle me?” Duan Ling Tian was slightly stunned. Based on Tang San Pao’s words, it was not hard to guess Tang San Pao’s strength was that of a titled Celestial Emperor at least.
At the same time, Zhang Tian You and the others looked at Tang San Pao in shock. They did not expect the burly young man to be so strong.
‘He wants to battle Duan Ling Tian?’ Su Li turned and glanced at Tang San Pao. He shook his head and smiled but did not say anything; Tang San Pao must have thought Duan Ling Tian’s strength was like that of an ordinary titled Celestial Emperor.
As for Ling Jue Yun, he did not even spare Tang San Pao a glance. Although he had yet to see Duan Ling Tian’s current strength, he knew even if Duan Ling Tian was weaker than him, the difference would be slight. How can an ordinary titled Celestial Emperor like Tang San Pao be a match for Duan Ling Tian?
At this moment, someone from the nearby seats cried out, “The Heavenly Emperor of the Primeval Heaven is here!”
Duan Ling Tian and the others instinctively looked up.
Ding Fu, the Heavenly Emperor of the Primeval Heaven, flew in the sky with a group of people following closely behind him.
Among the group of people was a face Duan Ling Tian was familiar with. It was none other than Wei Qi, the Skeletal Dragon Celestial Emperor, who had led him to the wooden houses where the participants were staying when he had just arrived at the Heavenly Palace of the Primeval Heaven. He was also one of the Heavenly Emperor of the Primeval Heaven’s true disciples.
“That’s the Heavenly Emperor of the Wandering Heaven!”
“The Heavenly Emperor of the Devoid of Hatred Heaven is here as well”
“That’s… That’s the Temple Master of the Ten Thousand Beasts Heaven’s Title Temple and the two Vice Temple Masters.”
“All the Heavenly Emperors and the Temple Masters of the Title Temple branches from the 81 Devata Realms are here!”
A commotion broke out at the venue with the appearances of the Heavenly Emperors and all the important figures.
The young geniuses continued staring at the entrance intently. Most of them were most interested in the Heavenly Emperors and their entourages compared to the Temple Masters…”
Duan Ling Tian had just looked away when someone cried out, “Situ Zhuqing, the Heavenly Emperor of the Luo River Heaven, is here!”
Duan Ling Tian’s eyes narrowed immediately as he looked up at the sky.
A beautiful woman wearing a smile on her face appeared in front of Duan Ling Tian’s eyes. She did not look like someone who had been hiding and on the run for years. Next to her was a burly middle-aged man with a jade-like complexion. The duo was smiling as they conversed.
“Isn’t that person next to her the Heavenly Emperor of the Equally Prosperous Heaven?”
“Yes! It’s Zhou Bing Wu, the Heavenly Emperor of the Equally Prosperous Heaven! He ranks fifth on the Devata Realms’ Heavenly Emperors ranking!”
“They seem rather close?”
Duan Ling Tian narrowed his eyes that gleamed coldly. ‘She actually dares to make an appearance here? Is the Devata Realms’ Battle of the Geniuses important to her or does she think the Heavenly Emperor of the Equally Heaven will protect her?’
Previously, Situ Zhuqing, the Heavenly Emperor of the Luo River Heaven, had sent her men to annihilate the Saint Province Realm where Duan Ling Tian came from for the sake of revenge. After she discovered his master, Feng Qing Yang, had also come from the Saint Province Realm, she had fled the Luo River Heaven.
‘I’m sure after master and I went to the Luo River Sect, she must have found out about our relationship. What gives her the confidence to show up here?’ Duan Ling Tian was perplexed. He could not figure out why Situ Zhuqing dared to come here when she must have known Feng Qing Yang would be present as well.
“The Heavenly Emperor of the Luo River Heaven?”
Zhang Tian You, Wang Ting, and He Jian Yi instinctively looked at Duan Ling Tian. They were aware of his conflict with Situ Zhuqing since their elders had a good relationship with the members of the Heavenly Palace of the Solitary Destructive Heaven. They were also aware that she had fled in fear when she realized she had offended Feng Qing Yang.
He Jian Yi could not help but ask, “Duan… Young Master, why do you think she dares to show up? Isn’t she afraid of our Lord Heavenly Emperor?”
Zhang Tian You and Wang Ting looked at Duan Ling Tian in confusion as well. They wondered if Feng Qing Yang had decided to let Situ Zhuqing off.
He Jian Yi bluntly asked, “Did our Lord Heavenly Emperor, you, and her resolve the conflict?”
He Jian Yi asked bluntly.
“No.” Duan Ling Tian shook his head as he looked at Situ Zhuqing coldly. “I guess she must have found someone to support her, or perhaps, she thinks master won’t cause a commotion during the Devata Realms’ Battle of the Geniuses.”
“Won’t cause a commotion?”
The trio exchanged a glance and shook their heads. Perhaps, an ordinary Heavenly Emperor might be restrained themselves and not cause a commotion. However, was the Heavenly Emperor of the Solitary Destructive Heaven an ordinary Heavenly Emperor?
At the same time, those who were privy to the conflict between Feng Qing Yang and Situ Zhuqing also had the same questions as Duan Ling Tian and the others. Most of them thought the duo had resolved the conflict. Otherwise, Situ Zhuqing definitely would not dare to show her face here.
“Didn’t the Heavenly Emperor of the Luo River Heaven flee the Luo River Heaven in fear? How dare she show up? Isn’t she afraid of running into Heavenly Emperor Feng Qing Yang?”
“Heavenly Emperor Feng Qing Yang is here as well, isn’t he?”
“Could it be that they’ve resolved the conflict?”
Soon enough, news of the conflict between Feng Qing Yang and Situ Zhuqing spread slowly among the spectators. Those who did not know about the conflict learned from those who were in the know.
“The Heavenly Emperor of the Luo River Heaven sent her men to annihilate the mundane realm where the Heavenly Emperor of the Solitary Destructive Heaven hailed from?”
“Why would a Heavenly Emperor of a Devata Realm stoop so low?”
“Even the gods would be displeased with what she did!”
“If Heavenly Emperor Feng Qing Yang decides to make a move here, the Heavenly Emperor of the Primeval Heaven and members of the Title Temple branches won’t intervene, right?”
“I don’t think she’d show up without considering the consequences. Perhaps, they’ve already resolved their conflict.”
Meanwhile, Situ Zhuqing maintained the smile on her face as she and the Heavenly Emperor of the Equally Prosperous Heaven descended on one of the floating islands. She seemed fearless.
Duan Ling Tian’s eye flashed coldly. ‘Why is Situ Zhuqing so confident? I don’t think the Heavenly Emperor of the Equally Prosperous Heaven alone is a match for master, right?’
