Chapter 4230 - 4230 Yun Teng Qiu’s Scheme
4230 Yun Teng Qiu’s Scheme
Everyone saw the void rippling and twisting after the Myriad Laws Academy’s Guarding Formation was activated.
A terrifying energy surged to the peak. It was so powerful that it seemed capable of destroying anything that stood in its path.
At the same time, Yun Teng Qiu, the Leader of the Yun clan, sensed the terrifying and overwhelming energy of the Myriad Laws Academy’s Guarding Formation. His expression eased immediately, and he quickly withdrew his Divine Energy before he said with a faint smile, “Academy Master Su, I was just joking.”
Su Bi Lie looked at Yun Teng Qiu with a pointed gaze before he deactivated the Myriad Laws Academy’s Guarding Formation. Then, he said, “Clan Leader Yun, you shouldn’t joke about some matters. If the academy’s Guarding Formation is activated again, I’m afraid there’ll be consequences.”
Su Bi Lie’s words were a blatant threat. After all, Yun Teng Qiu was at fault.
“Academy Master Su, rest assured. It won’t happen again. Since Academy Master Su is unwilling to help me with Duan Ling Tian, I’ll take my leave now.”
“Goodbye,” Su Bi Lie said coldly.
Yun Teng Qiu did pay attention to Su Bi Lie’s mood at all. He was preoccupied with his thoughts.
…
Meanwhile, peace returned to the Myriad Laws Academy.
No one knew what happened exactly. They only knew that the Myriad Laws Academy must have been under great threat. Otherwise, the academy’s Guarding Formation would not have been activated.
Needless to say, they also did not know why the Myriad Laws Academy’s Guarding Formation was deactivated so quickly. However, it did not stop them from speculating that the enemy must have retreated after seeing how powerful the Guarding Formation was.
No one was surprised by how powerful the Myriad Laws Academy’s Guarding Formation was. After all, it was said to have been created by a few supreme powerhouses. Moreover, the Myriad Laws Academy was widely known to be the safest place after prime supreme-rank forces in the Profound Energy Land.
Prime supreme-rank forces naturally had Guarding Formations that were created by supreme powerhouses as well. Moreover, they had the direct protection of supreme powerhouses. The supreme powerhouses would appear during times of crisis. It was only natural that they were the safest places.
…
After leaving the Myriad Laws Academy, a hint of fear appeared in Yun Teng Qiu’s eyes.
‘What a terrifying Formation. There’s no doubt that the Myriad Laws Academy’s Guarding Formation was created by a few supreme powerhouses… It’s comparable to our Yun clan’s Guarding Formation. If the Formation attacked, I’d definitely die if I didn’t leave within three breaths.’
In fact, Yun Teng Qiu did not have any intention to attack at all. He was only trying to test Duan Ling Tian’s importance to Su Bi Lie.
‘Duan Ling Tian didn’t join the academy for very long, but he’s already so important to the academy…’
In Yun Teng Qiu’s opinion, the fact that Su Bi Lie valued Duan Ling Tian meant that the entire Myriad Laws Academy valued Duan Ling Tian.
‘It’ll be impossible for me to get rid of Duan Ling Tian using the Myriad Laws Academy. I have to think of another way,’ Yun Teng Qiu thought to himself with a frown. He could not help but wonder if he could kill Duan Ling Tian before Duan Ling Tian reached full maturity.
However, Yun Teng Qiu was not afraid. Even if Duan Ling Tian reached his full potential, the Yun clan had the protection of a supreme powerhouse. To annihilate the Yun clan, Duan Ling Tian would have to deal with the supreme powerhouse.
Needless to say, if it was possible, it was best not to make an enemy out of someone like Duan Ling Tian. After all, even a supreme powerhouse could not guard the Yun clan all the time. Supreme powerhouses had duties to guard the Outer Boundary, after all.
‘Ning Xue truly has a discerning eye when choosing a husband…’ Yun Teng Qiu shook his head as he thought to himself. His eyes glinted coldly as he continued thinking, ‘Yan’er might not deserve her, but the Xia clan had given their word. The marriage must be held after the Realm Battlefield closes. Since Duan Ling Tian is determined to kill Yan’er, he’ll definitely show up on the day of the wedding. At that time, Duan Ling Tian will die. However, this also depends on whether Ning Xiu survives the Realm Battlefield…’
Yun Teng Qiu really could not wait for the day to come when he could kill Duan Ling Tian.
…
After Yun Teng Qiu returned to the Yun clan, he finally found that Xia Jie, the Third Master of the Xia clan, had long released the hostages whom Yun Qing Yan captured to threaten Xia Ning Xie. His expression was very unsightly when he learned about the matter.
“Xia Jie, you really ruined my plan,” Yun Teng Qiu said through gritted teeth as his eyes shone with killing intent. It would be difficult to force Duan Ling Tian to show himself without the hostages.
Yun Teng Qiu took a deep breath to calm down before he asked Yun Qing Yan, “Ning Xue is unaware of this, right?”
Yun Qing Yan replied, “That’s right, and she won’t find out unless Xia Jie finds her on the Realm Battlefield.” After a beat, he added, “At the very least, I think she won’t find out about it until she leaves the Realm Battlefield.”
Yun Teng Qiu nodded. His expression eased as he said, “That’s good. By the way, I’ll go to the Xia clan and meet your father-in-law. I’ll tell him to keep that matter a secret. I’ll also tell him to detain and imprison Xia Jie as soon as Xia Jie returns to the Xia clan. Ning Xue must never find out that Xia Jie had released Duan Ling Tian’s family and friends. Otherwise, she won’t agree to marry you no matter what.”
Yun Qing Yan’s eyes lit up upon hearing Yun Teng Qiu’s words. He did not hold much hope for the marriage, and his father’s words had brought his hope to life again. After listening to his father, he was confident he would be able to fulfill his dreams of marrying Xia Ning Xue as long as she did not die on the Realm Battlefield.
‘Duan Ling Tian, so what if you’re extremely lucky and have surpassed me? You’re still just an ant! I have the support of the Yun clan; what about you? The Myriad Laws Academy is only a heavyweight supreme-rank force. Even if you have the academy’s support, it doesn’t change anything,’ Yun Qing Yan thought to himself with a scoff.
…
Duan Ling Tian was unaware that after his failed attempt to kill Yun Qing Yan, there was a huge commotion in both the Yun clan and the Myriad Laws Academy. He was also naturally unaware of Yun Teng Qiu’s visit to the Myriad Laws Academy.
At this time, Duan Ling Tian had already entered the Realm Battlefield through the Divine Offering Land. After his near-death experience with Yun Teng Qiu, he was even more desperate to raise his cultivation base and become a Supreme God.
‘Although I’ve surpassed Yun Qing Yan, he has the protection of the Yun clan… It’ll be difficult for me to kill him if I’m not stronger than the Yun clan…’
After the failed assassination attempt, Duan Ling Tian knew it would be impossible to lure Yun Qing Yan out of the Yun clan’s estate to kill Yun Qing Yan.
‘The Realm Battlefield is too vast. I wonder where Ke’er is…’
In the outer area of the Divine Sanction Battlefield, where the Divine Offering Land and the Sanction Land overlapped, it was rare to encounter those in the realm of a Supreme God. As such, Duan Ling Tian was invincible in the outer area.
After entering the inner area, Duan Ling Tian encountered a few Supreme Gods, and he managed to kill them for the rewards. Needless to say, the rewards of killing Supreme Gods raised his cultivation significantly, and it did not take long before he was on the brink of breaking through the realm of a Supreme God.
‘There are at least 30 more years before the area where four or more Realms of Gods overlap appears. I have to become a Supreme God by then. That place is definitely the most dangerous place on the Realm Battlefield, which means that it also has many opportunities for me to grow stronger. It’s the perfect place for those who want to grow stronger. Since Ke’er entered the Realm Battlefield to become stronger, she’ll definitely head to that place.’
Once every 100 years, a place where multiple Realms of Gods overlapped would appear for a decade. Needless to say, that place was filled with many fortuitous encounters and secret realms.
