Duan Ling Tian had dressed his doppelganger in a real robe before sending the doppelganger to the lower realm. The ordinary robe had no defenses, but he did not think it was a problem since most of those in the lower realms were no match for his doppelganger.

“Found you!” Duan Ling Tian finally found the weakest spot in the space barrier. Without wasting time, he teleported over, tore the barrier, and made his way to the nearest Devata Realm.

…

Duan Ling Tian was sent to a Devata Realm he had visited in the past. At that time, he had traveled to many Devata Realms in search of his family. There were only a few Devata Realms that he did not visit.

“A remote place again?” Duan Ling Tian felt rather helpless after he surveyed his surroundings. Just like his previous visit, he was sent to a remote place in a Devata Realm. This meant that he would have to look for a Transportation Formation since there would not be one in a remote place like this.

…

While Duan Ling Tian was searching for Transportation Formation to bring him to the Solitary Destructive Heaven, a person arrived at the Heavenly Palace of the Solitary Destructive Heaven.

The Heavenly Palace that had been flattened previously had already been repaired. Everything, from the main building to the entrance, was restored to the way they were before under the supervision of a few elders.

Swoosh!

At this moment, two elders, who were guarding the main entrance of the Heavenly Palace, saw a figure.

It was a young man dressed in a light golden long robe. He was handsome and elegant with a valiant air about him. At this moment, he was looking at the Heavenly Palace and muttering under his breath, “Seems like Duan Ling Tian has yet to arrive. I’ll just wait for him here.”

With that, the handsome young man sat cross-legged and closed his eyes.

“Who is he? Is he looking for someone or waiting for someone?”

“How would I know? Let’s just keep an eye on him for now.”

The two elders found the young man’s behavior rather strange. However, since the young man looked as though he was waiting for someone, they did not step forward.

However, after an hour, no one showed up. With this, the elder felt that the young man was rather suspicious.

“No one came to see him…”

“Isn’t it an insult to the dignity of Heavenly Palace for him to just sit there?”

“I’ll go and tell him off.”

One of the two elders flew over to the young man to drive him away.

When the young man suddenly opened his eyes, the elder froze when he saw the young man’s indifferent gaze. At the same time, he felt an indescribable pressure pressing down on him and choking him. Apart from that, he discovered he could not mobilize the Celestial Origin Energy in his body. If it were not for the invisible force holding him up, he would have fallen from the air since he could no longer mobilize his Celestial Origin Energy. Frightened out of his wits, he could only send a desperate message to the strongest person in the Heavenly Palace of the Solitary Destructive Heaven.

“Lord Meng Luo, I’m being attacked at the main entrance! Save me!”

The elder was a loyal follower of the Meng Luo, the Heavenly Savage Celestial Emperor. He had heard previously that Meng Luo would be in the Heavenly Palace so he had volunteered to guard the main entrance.

At this time, the other elder finally realized that something was wrong. “What’s going on? Why isn’t he moving?”

Suddenly, a figure shot out of the Heavenly Palace and appeared at the main entrance in just a blink of an eye.

Upon seeing the figure, the eyes of the elder at the main entrance lit up immediately. He greeted loudly and respectfully, “Greetings, Lord Meng Luo!”

As soon as Meng Luo arrived, he had already noticed the young man sitting cross-legged. He frowned, and soon after, a grim expression appeared on his face. He discovered that the space around the young man seemed to have been sealed, keeping his Divine Consciousness out. He was not sure if it was due to a Formation or if it was the young man’s own power. In any case, he did not dare to act rashly. He asked politely, “Sir, who are you? Do you have business with the Heavenly Palace of the Solitary Destructive Heaven?”

The young man waved his hand casually, sending the elder next to Meng Luo.

With that, the elder was finally able to circulate his Celestial Origin Energy. After he stabilized his footing, he bowed at Meng Luo and said, “Sorry to trouble you, my lord.”

Meng Luo nodded. “Return to your position.”

After saying that, Meng Luo turned to face the young man again, feeling slightly nervous. Amidst the nervousness, there was a hint of bitterness as well. Originally, he had thought he was rather strong; only a few people in the Devata Realms were stronger than him. However, a powerhouse suddenly appeared and defeated Feng Qing Yang, the Heavenly Emperor whom he idolized. He felt powerless at that time as there was nothing he could do to help. Later on, when Duan Ling Tian returned, he discovered Duan Ling Tian’s strength had already surpassed that of Feng Qing Yang. He found this rather difficult to accept. After all, Duan Ling Tian used to be much weaker than him. However, in less than 100 years, Duan Ling Tian had grown so strong that he could kill him with just a sneeze. Finally, at this moment, this unknown young man had appeared. Although the young man did not make a move, he could feel an indescribable pressure. He was certain the young man was not exerting any pressure. Perhaps, the pressure was just his illusion.

“I harbor no ill intentions,” the golden-clad young man said, still sitting cross-legged, “I’m waiting for someone. Once he arrives, I’ll leave.”

Although the golden-clad young man’s face was expressionless, his voice was not cold when he spoke.

“Is the person you’re looking for from the Heavenly Palace of the Solitary Destructive Heaven?” Meng Luo asked. He thought perhaps the other party was here to look for Feng Qing Yang, the Heavenly Emperor of the Solitary Destructive Heaven.

“I don’t know,” the golden-clad young man said as he shook his head. Seeing that slight frown on Meng Luo’s face, he added, “His name is Duan Ling Tian. Do you know him?”

Meng Luo was momentarily stunned upon hearing this name. Then, he sighed in relief before he said with a smile, “As it turns out you’re a friend of the Young Master. Did the Young Master choose this place as a meeting spot?”

Meng Luo was like a different person now. He was very friendly.

The elder, who idolized Meng Luo was stunned by Meng Luo’s sudden change. He wondered inwardly, ‘Is he really the aloof and dignified Celestial Emperor in my heart?’

Upon hearing Meng Luo’s words, the golden-clad young man looked slightly surprised. He rose to his feet and said, “That child didn’t tell me anything. If I had known he’s the Young Master here, I would’ve entered the palace and drink tea while I waited for him. Why would I wait outside? Alas, quite some time has passed so he should be here soon…”

As soon as the golden-clad young man’s voice fell…

Swoosh!

The golden-clad young man looked back and smiled.

In the next moment, Duan Ling Tian, who was delayed, appeared at the main entrance of the Heavenly Palace.

“Greetings, Young Master!” Meng Luo said with a bow.

The two elders followed suit as well.

“Senior Meng Luo, you’re here as well?” Duan Ling Tian was puzzled.

“I heard a guest had arrived so I came to have a look,” Meng Luo said somewhat awkwardly. A few moments ago, he had rushed out imposingly. If he did not sense that the golden-clad young man’s cultivation was profound, he would have likely driven the golden-clad young man away.

Duan Ling Tian turned to look at the golden-clad young man and said apologetically with a smile, “Elder Ye, I was transported to a remote place in a Devata Realm so it took me a while before I found a Transportation Formation. I apologize for making you wait.”

Meng Luo was inwardly shocked by how courteous Duan Ling Tian was to the golden-clad young man. It seemed like the other party was even stronger than Duan Ling Tian. Duan Ling Tian was already a Lord of Gods so how strong was the other party?

The golden-clad young man was none other than Ye Chen Feng, the Ascension Elder from the Pure Yang Sect, who had come to the lower realms with Duan Ling Tian.

“It’s fine. I didn’t wait for long,” Ye Chen Feng said before he asked with a faint smile on his face, “Now, as the host, are you going to offer a cup of tea to this guest who came from so far away?”
