Chapter 3374: You Can Try Convincing My Father
“Si Ling?”
“Tian Wu?”
Yu Wen Qing and You Bai Feng were shocked by the duo’s arrival. Following that, their expressions changed drastically. They did not expect the duo who had left two days ago would return. Why did they return?
At this moment, the Cloudy Sunbow Sword Sect disciples kneeling on the ground pointed at Duan Si Ling and said, “Senior Lan Heng, Duan Si Ling is there!”
“That’s right! That’s Duan Si Ling!”
“She’s Duan Si Ling!”
Upon seeing Duan Si Ling, the eyes of the elders and disciples of Cloudy Sunbow Sword Sect brightened as though they had already been saved.
Earlier, the Cold Drizzle Celestial Sect’s Celestial Emperor, Lan Heng, said that he would annihilate the Cloudy Sunbow Sword Sect if Duan Si Ling did not appear. He even said it did not matter if the Sect Leader and the Grand Elder of the Cloudy Sunbow Sword Sect had severed ties with the sect, everyone would still have to die unless Duan Si Ling showed up. With these words, all of them fell into despair. How could they not be filled with hope now that Duan Si Ling was here?
As soon as Duan Si Ling showed up, she kneeled in front of Yu Wen Qing and You Bai Feng. “Master, Grandaunt, Si Ling has troubled all of you.”
Feng Tian Wu followed suit and kneeled in front of You Bai Feng. She knew her master only protected Duan Si Ling for her sake.
When You Bai Feng recovered from her shock, she asked angrily, “You… Why did both of you come back?”
With this, all hope was lost.
“Si Ling, why did you come back?” Yu Wen Qing’s expression was much worse than You Bai Feng. She instinctively stepped in front of Duan Si Ling to shield her as she glared at Lan Heng and Lan Ji Nian.
“Nian’er, is that Duan Si Ling?” Lan Heng asked as he withdrew his raging energy and looked at the girl standing behind Yu Wen Qing.
“Grandpa, it is her!” Lan Ji Nian said with barely concealed excitement.
“Alright.” Lan Heng nodded. With a wave of his hands, he said to the Cold Drizzle Celestial Sect disciples standing behind him who were carrying the betrothal gifts. “Put down the gifts and get the girl!”
“Senior Lan Heng, you won’t gain happiness by forcing this. Why must you do this?” Yu Wen Qing asked grimly, still shielding Duan Si Ling.
However, if Lan Heng was so easily convinced, things would not have escalated to this extent.
“Yu Wen Qing, it’s best if you move aside… Otherwise, your disciple Duan Si Ling will have to organize a funeral for you.” Lan Heng’s eyes shone with killing intent as he looked at Yu Wen Qing.
“Master.” Duan Si Ling suddenly stepped forward to shield Yu Wen Qing instead. Then, she looked at Lan Heng coldly and asked, “You’re Lan Heng, the former Sect Leader of the Cold Drizzle Sect?”
Lan Heng smiled indifferently, “Girl, it’s an honor that you’re able to marry my grandson. If you know what’s good for you, you better come with us. Otherwise, unless you want everyone in the Cloudy Sunbow Sword Sect to die because of you.”
Feng Tian Wu stepped forward as well at this moment; she stood next to Duan Si Ling. She looked at Lan Heng and scoffed before she said, “Lan Heng, don’t you know what your grandson is like? What kind of honor are you talking about? He’s unworthy of Si Ling.”
“Well, whether he’s worthy or not, it’s not up to you…” Lan Heng sneered
“If you want me to marry him, you’ll have to convince my father…” Duan Si Ling said icily.
Yu Wen Qing and You Bai Feng looked at each other as soon as they heard Duan Si Ling’s words.
“Your father?” Lan Heng cocked his eyebrows and asked disdainfully. “Where is he? Does he even dare to go against me?”
As soon as Lan Heng’s voice fell, a scoff rang from behind a cloud.
Soon enough, three figures appeared before everyone’s eyes. There was one man and two women. The man dressed in a purple robe was handsome with bright eyes and had valiant air about him.
Everyone thought the purple-clad man was incredibly handsome. However, their eyes widened further in shock when they saw the white-clad lady standing next to him.
“So beautiful!”
“Heavens! She’s the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen!”
The white-clad woman leaned against the purple-clad man as she held his hand. A hint of gentleness could be seen on her usually expressionless face when she looked at Duan Si Ling.
Apart from that, there was a pretty young woman who was dressed in a golden robe. At this time, she grinned as she looked at Lan Heng and said, “Brother Ling Tian, I heard this man said you won’t dare to go against him!”
“I’m curious to see what he can do…” Duan Ling Tian said with a deceptively friendly smile on his face. However, his eyes flashed with killing intent when he looked at Lan Heng.
‘There’s a Celestial Emperor among them as well…” Lan Heng’s expression turned solemn when the trio appeared. He can’t see through their cultivation bases; it seemed like his Divine Consciousness had been blocked. This meant that these people were not simple. Moreover, based on the golden-clad young woman’s words, it was clear the trio was confident.
After the trio moved to stand next to Duan Si Ling and Feng Tian Wu, Lan Heng asked solemnly, “Are you Duan Si Ling’s father?”
Duan Ling Tian ignored Lan Heng and said to Yu Wen Qing with a smile, “Sect Leader Yu, thank you for looking after my daughter…”
“Y-you’re welcome,” Yu Wen Qing stammered slightly. Not only did her disciple return, but she brought her father along as well. She had heard from Feng Tian Wy that Duan Si Ling’s father was possibly the disciple of the Heavenly Emperor of the Solitary Destructive Heaven. However, 100 years ago, when they visited, Duan Si Ling’s father was not there.
With Duan Ling Tian’s presence, in a way, it meant that they had the support of the Heavenly Emperor of the Solitary Destructive Heaven. Since Duan Ling Tian was staying in the Heavenly Palace, the most sacred place in the Solitary Destructive Heaven, it meant that he was highly valued by the Heavenly Emperor. Yu Wen Qing knew if it were not for Duan Si Ling, she would not have been able to meet with such a prominent figure.
Similar to Yu Wen Qing, You Bai Feng, Feng Tian Wu’s master, was shocked as well. She looked at Duan Ling Tian, dumbfounded, as she thought to herself, “Is he Si Ling’s father? The man Tian Wu loves?”
“Elder Bai Feng.” Duan Ling Tian smiled as he turned to look at You Bai Feng. “Thank you for taking care of Tian Wu as well…”
“No… It’s my duty.” Although You Bai Feng was a titled Celestial Emperor, she did not put on airs. After all, the person in front of her was related to the Heavenly Emperor of the Solitary Destructive Heaven. In her advanced age, she could not help but tremble.
At this moment, Lan Ji Nian called out “Hey! Did you not hear my grandpa? He asked if you are Duan Si Ling’s father!”
“So you’re the one who wants to marry Si Ling?” Little Gold said as she slowly walked toward Lan Ji Nian.
Lan Heng looked at Little Gold warily.
At this time, Duan Ling Tian called out, “Little Gold, I’ll deal with this…”
Little Gold pouted. However, she naturally did not dare to disobey Duan Ling Tian. She stuck out her tongue at him before she returned to her original position. She had wanted to toy with Lan Ji Nian a little. Who knew Duan Ling Tian wanted to deal with the matter himself. It was to be expected; after all, she could sense Duan Ling Tian’s fury.
“Huan’er, look after Si Ling.”
Huan’er obediently moved to stand next to Duan Si Ling while Duan Ling Tian moved toward Lan Heng, Lan Ji Nian, and the others.
“Who are you? Are you with them as well?” Duan Ling Tian asked a middle-aged man standing behind Lan Heng and Lan Ji Nian.
The middle-aged man was Lei Zhen Shan, Lan Heng’s disciple.
“He’s my disciple Lei Zhen Shan.” Lan Heng said in a low voice.
Duan Ling Tian nodded. “I understand. So all of you are together…”
“No!” Lei Zhen Shan hurriedly said as he retreated in just a blink of an eye. Then, he said loudly, “Senior, I used to be Lan Heng’s disciple. However, I hereby announce that I’m severing all ties with Lan Heng and the Cold Drizzle Sect!”
