Chapter 3905 - The Doppelganger’s Return
Chapter 3905: The Doppelganger’s Return
Duan Ling Tian went to the main Title Temple to kill Wu Hong Qing and gain control over the temple mainly due to his master, Feng Qing Yang. Moreover, he thought it would be beneficial to him as well.
As one of the top forces in the Devata Realms, the Title Temple’s cultivation resources were naturally superior. Even a Lord of Gods, like Duan Ling Tian, would not be so influential in the Devata Realms. After all, the Title Temple had a long legacy in the Devata Realms. This could not be obtained through strength alone and needed time to accumulate.
Duan Ling Tian sighed inwardly as he thought to himself, ‘It’s best I don’t show myself to save them the sorrow of parting again. I’ll just disguise myself as a member of the Solitary Destructive Heaven’s Heavenly Emperor Palace to pass them the treasures…’
Although he could not openly reunite with his family and friends yet, he was content with knowing they were safe. He could bear to cause them sorrow when it was time to part again.
Duan Ling Tian no longer cared about the Title Temple. He was confident that Zhuang Tian Heng, whom he had chosen, would fulfill his role satisfactorily.
Indeed, after Duan Ling Tian killed the four people while possessing Wu Hong Qing’s body, shocking everyone, no one dared to disobey him even if they felt he was too cruel. After all, not only was he the Temple Master, but he had shown himself to be the strongest in the Title Temple. Even if he had stepped away from his position, his strength was unquestionable. Only a fool would challenge him.
Nonetheless, some of the branch masters had already decided to head to the Realm of Gods when the spatial passages reopened to complain about ‘Wu Hong Qing’. During these 300 years, they would stay low and bide their time.
Duan Ling Tian was naturally unaware of their thoughts. Even if he was aware, he would not care about them. After all, the Title Temple in the Realm of Gods would not be able to find out that he was the culprit. Moreover, he was sure that Zhuang Tian Heng, who benefited from this arrangement, would not expose him. It was likely that the Title Temple would not do anything to Zhuang Tian Heng as well since most of the capable powerhouses in the Title Temple had been killed by him, leaving Zhuang Tian Heng as the most suitable candidate to lead the Title Temple in the Devata Realms.
…
Through Zhuang Tian Heng, Duan Ling Tian obtained many cultivation resources for his family and friends. Although Zhuang Tian Heng was confused as to why Duan Ling Tian wanted those resources, he obediently carried out Duan Ling Tian’s orders.
At that time, Duan Ling Tian had said, “I won’t interfere with the Title Temple after this. All I need you to do is to obtain cultivation resources and run a few simple errands for me. Even if the Title Temple in the Realm of Gods investigates this matter 300 years later, you won’t be implicated. The blame will fall on Wu Hong Qing, and they’ll also discover that Wu Hong Qing is dead. Before that, I’ll also announce that I discovered Feng Qing Yang’s secret so I’ll be heading to the Asura Hell…”
Zhang Tian Heng’s eyes lit up. His fear of becoming Duan Ling Tian’s puppet vanished completely. Based on Duan Ling Tian’s words, it was clear Duan Ling Tian had no interest in the Title Temple at all. Moreover, Duan Ling Tian had also figured things out for him. Hence, he said happily, “Lord Duan, if you need my help in the future, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me! I’ll do all I can to help you!”
Duan Ling Tian nodded. Since he had dealt with everything, he left the main Title Temple and returned to the mundane realm where his family and friends were staying.
…
Swoosh!
After Duan Ling Tian put on a long black robe and mobilized the law of life to disguise himself as an expert in the law of life, he flew into the family and friends’ cultivation ground. He did not look for Li Fei and Huan’er since he was worried they might see through his disguise.
Duan Ling Tian appeared in a valley where his parents, Li Rou and Duan Ru Feng, were drinking tea and playing chess before he asked, “Are both of you Duan Ling Tian’s parents?”
Li Rou and Duan Ru Feng did not sense Duan Ling Tian’s presence at all so they were shocked when they heard his voice. Before they regained their senses, Duan Ling Tian brought a spatial ring out and tossed it on the table.
Duan Ling Tian said in a hoarse voice, “Before the Young Master left, he asked me to hand this spatial ring to you on this specific day. I’ll take my leave now that my mission has been accomplished.”
Following that, Duan Ling Tian disappeared from the valley without another word.
The plants in the valley seemed even lusher after they bathed in his energy from the law of life.
When Li Rou and Duan Ru Feng finally regained their senses, they looked at the plants in their surroundings and the table before they exchanged a look with shocked expressions on their faces.
Duan Ru Feng claimed ownership of the spatial ring before he looked into the ring. Then, he said with a sigh, “Tian’er is improving so much that I feel useless as a father…”
“Brother Feng, everyone walks on different paths. We should be happy that our son is so lucky. Moreover, Little Tian will never think of us as useless…” Li Rou said reassuringly with a smile on her face.
“I know. I just feel a little emotional,” Duan Ru Feng said as he shook his head.
Duan Ru Feng and Li Rou felt at ease when they heard that the mysterious powerhouse was from the Heavenly Emperor Palace in the Solitary Destructive Heaven.
“Tian’er entrusted the person to deliver these cultivation resources on this day, but I don’t think I’ve seen such a person in the Heavenly Emperor Palace,” Li Rou said.
Duan Ru Feng said, “Perhaps, he’s one of the secret guards who’s protecting us in the dark…”
The husband and wife were unaware that Duan Ling Tian overheard their conversation before he left.
…
‘I should continue raising my cultivation. If I encounter a bottleneck, I’ll have to enter the Lord Battlefield again,’ Duan Ling Tian mused inwardly as he left the mundane realm and returned to the Heavenly Emperor Palace in the Solitary Destructive Heaven.
…
At the same time, Duan Ling Tian’s true body was refining the divine pills he had promised Xue Hai Chuan and Dongfang Yan Nian in the Flying Dragon Sect. After he handed the divine pills to the duo, he continued with his cultivation.
…
In just a blink of an eye, a decade had passed.
In the Heavenly Emperor Palace in the Solitary Destructive Heaven.
“Master has still yet to escape from Mi Xuan after a decade?” Duan Ling Tian frowned.
If it were not for Feng Qing Yang’s intact Soul Pearl, Duan Ling Tian would have rushed to the Land of Dead to look for Mi Xuan.
Over the past decade, he had spent his time in the mundane realm and the Solitary Destructive Heaven’s Heavenly Emperor Palace. Although he knew it was unlikely for his family to encounter danger in the mundane realm, he felt more assured when he was keeping an eye on them. He had also visited the Heavenly Emperor Palace to check if his master had returned.
‘I’ve finally reached a bottleneck in my cultivation. It’s time for me to enter the Lord Battlefield again. To be safe, it’s best to have my law of space’s doppelganger with me when I enter the Lord Battlefield. Otherwise, it’ll be bad if I run into an Underworld Elder from the Tai Yi Sect. If I use all my trump cards and still can’t kill him, it’ll be even worse since my trump cards would be exposed… Hence, it’s best to have my law of space’s doppelganger with me…’
…
At the same time, Duan Ling Tian’s true body in the Flying Dragon Sect began to manifest his law of space’s doppelganger. With that, the doppelganger disappeared from the Devata Realms as well. Since he had made arrangements, he was at ease leaving the Devata Realm and the mundane realm. Moreover, he knew he could return again as long as he obtained another Destruction Divine Shuttle.
‘I hope master will return at that time…’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself with a sigh.
