4563 Zhao An Yi’s Speculation
In the past, Guo Lin would never have dreamed that he, who had entered the realm of Saints, would have to lower his head in fear and beg for mercy.
After all, Saints were once the peak existence in the Outer Boundary and the Myriad Worlds. They were untouchable. However, this changed after heaven announced the birth of two level-seven supreme powerhouses after they passed the Fatal Heavenly Tribulation.
The two level-seven supreme powerhouses quietly surpassed all the Saints and World supreme powerhouses. There was no warning at all. When they found out about it, there was nothing they could do about it even if they felt unwilling. They had stood at the peak for so long, how could they be willing now that someone had surpassed them?
In their opinion, Feng Qing Yang was the same as them. Otherwise, he would not guard the Heaven Traversing Pagoda and prevent others from entering the pagoda. In their eyes, his actions proved that he, like them, also did not want others to surpass him or catch up to him.
If they had known earlier that the duo would surpass them and become the first two level-seven supreme powerhouses in the world after the gap in history, they would have done everything in their power to stop the duo. They would not hesitate to kill the duo at all. Alas, it was too late, and the duo had already surpassed them.
Guo Lin had seen how Duan Ling Tian had effortlessly destroyed his attacks earlier. He was terrified by the strength of a level-seven supreme powerhouse. The gap was truly too big, and it made him feel hopeless. Not to mention killing him, he knew it would be easy for Duan Ling Tian to kill Zhao An Yi, who was much stronger than him, and destroy the Azure Cloud Saint Sect.
Despite having to lower his head, Guo Lin did not feel humiliated. After all, all Saints and World supreme powerhouses had to lower their heads in front of such a terrifying person. Instead, there was a small wisp of hope in his heart at this moment. He hoped that Duan Ling Tian would show mercy to the Azure Cloud Saint Sect.
Before Duan Ling Tian could reply, Zhao An Yi, who was standing at the side, also pleaded, “Lord Duan Ling Tian, if… if you’re able to forgive Guo Lin and the Azure Cloud Saint Sect, the Azure Cloud Saint Sect will swear loyalty to you and serve you!”
As the strongest person in the Azure Cloud Saint Sect, Zhao An Yi was naturally qualified to speak on behalf of the sect. He did not feel reluctant at all. After all, Duan Ling Tian was one of the most powerful people in the world. Even if the sect did not provoke Duan Ling Tian, Duan Ling Tian could easily destroy the sect.
At this time, the members of the Azure Cloud Saint Sect, who were standing nearby, waited for Duan Ling Tian’s response with bated breath, feeling helpless and anxious. Their hearts were racing at this moment. They were afraid that Duan Ling Tian would refuse and insist on destroying the Azure Cloud Saint Sect in a fit of anger. It was fine if they died, but they still had relatives and disciples in the Azure Cloud Saint Sect.
As for the survivors from the Fu clan, their faces turned ashen as soon as they saw the two Saints from the Azure Cloud Saint Sect pleading for mercy. They were frightened out of their wits and hurriedly fell to their knees to beg for mercy.
“Lord Duan Ling Tian, please forgive us!”
“Please forgive me, Lord Duan! I’m willing to leave the Fu clan!”
“Lord Duan, my father was a member of the Fu clan. He has already passed away. I’m willing to sever my relationship with my father and the Fu clan. I promise to change my surname as well! Please show mercy!”
…
At the same time, the onlookers, who came to watch the show, were greatly shocked by this scene. Although they knew the people mentioned in the heavenly text were extraordinary and terrifying, it was different when they witnessed it for themselves.
In front of level-seven supreme powerhouses, Saints were as weak as chickens. This was clearly demonstrated when Duan Ling Tian crushed Guo Lin’s attack with just one move.
One onlooker even thought to himself, ‘He’s really too strong… If I can have such strength, it doesn’t even matter if I only have a few days to live…’
…
The purple-clad Duan Ling Tian who was hovering in the air at this moment seemed to hold everyone’s lives in his hands at this moment. With just his words, he could determine the life and death of Saints and saint-rank forces.
Under everyone’s watchful eyes, Duan Ling Tian looked at Zhao An Yi and Guo Lin and said indifferently, “I can let this matter go…”
Zhao Yi An and Guo Lin trembled upon hearing these words. A hint of surprise could be seen on their faces at this moment.
Duan Ling Tian continued to say, “I’ll visit the Azure Cloud Saint Sect in three months. At that time, I hope to see these two people…”
As he spoke, Duan Ling Tian used his Divine Consciousness and formed the pictures of Han Jiang and Tuoba Liang Cheng, the two demi Saints who had helped the Fu clan kill Duan You Wei back then.
Han Jiang and Tuoba Liang Cheng were all from the Azure Cloud Saint Sect’s territories. Even if the two Saints from the Azure Cloud Saint Sect did not know them, it was impossible for the other demi Saints from the sect not to know them.
“If you catch them, I won’t pursue the matter that happened today. If one of them is missing…” Duan Ling Tian said threateningly, frightening Zhao An Yi and Guo Lin.
Zhao An Yi and Guo Lin naturally did not dare to take Duan Ling Tian’s words lightly.
Following that, Duan Ling Tian disappeared into thin air.
Through the memories of Fu Liang Ming, the demi Saint from the Fu clan, Duan Ling Tian knew the locations of the cultivation grounds of Han Jiang and Tuoba Liang Cheng. However, one of them was a sectless cultivator and was often away from his cultivation ground. Now that he had people to run errands for him, there was no need for him to look for the duo one by one. All he needed to do was wait for three months before going to the Azure Cloud Saint Sect. At that time, he would be able to meet the duo and completely avenge Duan You Wei.
After Duan Ling Tian left, Zhao An Yi, Guo Lin, and the few people from the Azure Cloud Saint Sect sighed in relief immediately.
Similarly, the surviving members of the Fu clan also sighed in relief now that they had avoided a huge disaster.
At the same time, the onlookers were busy discussing among themselves.
“Lord Duan seemed to have asked the two Saints from the Azure Cloud Saint Sect to look for someone…”
“Who is he looking for?”
“Who dared to offend Lord Duan?”
A few smart and observant people quickly enlightened the others.
“Those people Lord Duan is looking for are likely related to the demi Saints of the Fu clan… He came here and attacked the Fu clan. It’s clear that the clan had offended him. No, to be precise, the two demi Saints from the Fu clan had offended him.”
This was rather obvious since Duan Ling Tian did not take action against the remaining members of the Fu clan.
…
After Zhao An Yi, Guo Lin, and the others from the Azure Cloud Saint Sect left the scene, Guo Lin asked Zhao Yi An through Voice Transmission, “Han Jiang and Tuoba Lian Cheng? Junior uncle, why do you think he’s looking for those two people?”
Fear still lingered in Guo Lin’s heart at this moment. Although his mind was in a mess, he did not dare to forget the people that Duan Ling Tian wanted them to find.
In fact, Guo Lin was no stranger to Han Jiang and Tuoba Lian Cheng. Han Jiang was the strongest member of the Han clan, a demi-saint-rank force governed by the Azure Cloud Saint Sect. He had met the other party a few times before. As for Tuoba Lian Cheng, he had never met the other party, but he had heard of the other party. Tuoba Lian Cheng was rather famous in the territories of the Azure Cloud Saint Sect after all.
“If I’m not mistaken, just like the two demi Saints from the Fu clan, those two must have offended him as well…” Zhao An Yi replied. He was much calmer than Guo Lin at this moment. Based on the fact that Duan Ling Tian killed the two demi Saints from the Fu clan as soon as he arrived, he surmised that Duan Ling Tian did not kill the two on a whim.
Guo Lin was taken aback. “Where did they find the courage to offend such a terrifying person?”
Upon hearing this, Zhao An Yi said angrily, “Don’t forget that he only entered the realm of supreme powerhouses not long ago. When the heavenly text appeared for the first time and made him famous in the Outer Boundary and the Myriad Worlds, he was just an advanced Supreme God. He left quite a while ago, but you still haven’t returned to your senses?”
Guo Lin was stunned. Then, he said with a sheepish smile, “Indeed, I’m not in my right mind now. After all, I really thought that I was going to die earlier. To be honest, that was the first time I’ve ever felt so desperate. Even before joining the sect, I’ve never felt that way even though I encountered many dangers…”
Guo Lin was naturally not an ordinary person since he was able to become a Saint. His mental strength was usually strong, but the opponent’s earlier was truly too overwhelming. How could he not be frightened?
“When the heavenly text appeared for the first time a few years ago, it announced that he was the first person to enter the forbidden realm and survive the Fatal Heavenly Tribulation after the gap in history…” Guo Lin murmured, “The demi Saints from the Fu clan, Han Jiang, and Tuoba Lian Cheng must have offended him before he became a supreme powerhouse…”
Zhao An Yi speculated, “Not long after he became a level-seven supreme powerhouse, he went to the Fu clan and killed the two demi Saints. It’s clear that he had a huge grudge against the two demi Saints. If I’d known earlier that he was Duan Ling Tian and that the Fu clan had offended him, I wouldn’t have allowed the sect to stand up for them. I feel sorry for He Hu…”
He Hu, the demi Saint from the Azure Cloud Saint Sect whom Duan Ling Tian killed, was also Zhao An Yi’s nephew.
Guo Lin scoffed. A hint of contempt flashed in his eyes as he said, “Those two from the Fu clan, Han Jiang, and Tuoba Lian Cheng are trash! They allowed someone below the realm of supreme powerhouses to escape under their noses. As a result, that Duan Ling Tian soared to such great heights. Wouldn’t it be great if they had killed him back then? Alas, someone stronger than us finally appeared in the Outer Boundary and the Myriad Worlds…”
Guo Lin spoke through Voice Transmission from the beginning until the end. He naturally did not dare to say such words out loud. After all, what if Duan Ling Tian had yet to leave and was secretly watching them?
