Chapter 4700 The Carefree Dao Sect
Duan Ling Tian naturally was unaware of Lei Hong or Yun Xin Feng's current thoughts. In fact, he no longer paid much attention to those two people. At most, he was slightly guarded against them, so as not to be taken advantage of to avoid harming his family and friends.
Although he had become a Dao Merging powerhouse, he was unable to constantly watch over his family and friends. In the Divine Land, unlike the world within the Life Creation Chart, there was no power of laws, so there was no way to form doppelgangers.
"Let's go back."
Duan Ling Tian, deciding not to pursue Yu Luo He further, chose to reunite with his wife and parents. After ensuring their safety, he ventured back to the Surging River Divine Kingdom alone.
…
"Has there been any news about Nian Tian?"
Within the royal family of the Surging River Divine Kingdom, Duan Ling Tian found out that someone had found his son, Duan Nian Tian. Zhao An Yi had already dispatched a level-seven Dao powerhouse from the royal family to retrieve his son.
Duan Ling Tian's spirits lifted upon hearing this news, and he expressed his gratitude toward Jiang Hai Shan.
Jiang Tian Zheng, a Dao Merging powerhouse, seldom involved himself in most affairs. Most responsibilities fell to Jiang Hai Shan, a level-nine Dao Establishment cultivator, and the current emperor.
...
Looking at Carefree Island as a whole, the Mountain Alliance was a relatively minor force, nestled in the eastern region's coastal corner by the Night Forest. Among the various forces within Night Forest, it did not rank within the top three.
If one were to discuss the most formidable force on Carefree Island, it would undoubtedly be the Carefree Dao Sect. The sect's name itself was intrinsically linked to Carefree Island, which was renamed in honor of the sect.
The Carefree Dao Sect might not boast the oldest legacy on the island, but it stood as the most powerful force. This reputation was bolstered by the emergence of three Dao Merging powerhouses from its ranks over the course of history.
Even the island's previous Dao Merging powerhouse hailed from the Carefree Dao Sect. In the current generation, although no Dao Merging powerhouses were present, the sect boasted three level-nine Dao powerhouses and more than ten level-eight Dao Establishment powerhouses.
Most of these individuals were away, seeking their own breakthroughs, leaving behind only one level-nine Dao Establishment powerhouse and three level-eight Dao Establishment powerhouses. Among them, a level-eight Dao Establishment powerhouse named Yang Tian He served as the Grand Elder.
Yang Tian He, with his middle-aged appearance, robust physique, and commanding presence, exuded an aura of authority. His son, Yang Chun, shared a resemblance but carried a hint of naivety, indicating his lack of experience. Gazing earnestly at his father, Yang Chun declared, "Father, Yao Yao and I are deeply in love!"
"In love?" Yang Tian He responded with a sneer, "It seems to me she's merely drawn to your status. The one you love may not reciprocate your feelings."
Yang Tian He had fathered many children, but his affection for his youngest son was unparalleled, making his other children wonder if they were truly his biological children.
"Father, Yao Yao is unaware of my true identity," Yang Chun explained earnestly, "I've only revealed to her the level of cultivation that matches hers... Our meeting was purely by chance!"
Before his father could respond, Yang Chun pleaded, "Please, Father, fulfill my wish! With your status, there's no need to arrange a marriage for me. Let me be with the one I truly love!"
Seeing this, Yang Tian He's frown deepened. In the end, he said, "I'm really curious. What kind of woman would make you so infatuated? Bring me to meet her. If I find her agreeable, I'll personally visit her family to propose marriage and select an auspicious day for your wedding."
Overjoyed by his father's concession, Yang Chun exclaimed, "Thank you, Father! I'm certain you'll like Yao Yao!"
"Let's go."
With that, Yang Tian He swiftly transported them thousands of miles away from the Carefree Dao Sect.
"Her family resides in the eastern region?"
"Yes, Father," Yang Chun confirmed eagerly, "Her name is Guo Yao Yao, the second daughter of the deputy leader of Mountain Alliance in the Night Forest. She has an older sister."
…
It was quite the coincidence. As Yang Tian He and Yang Chun arrived at the Mountain Alliance and neared the Guo Mansion, they unexpectedly encountered Sheng An leading Zhao An Yi, Duan Nian Tian, and the level-seven Dao Establishment powerhouse from the royal family of the Surging River Divine Kingdom.
Zhao An Yi's voice, filled with formidable power, resonated as he issued a cold command, "Guo Qiu, bring your daughter out to face her punishment!"
Zhao An Yi's voice swept through the Guo Mansion, panicking its inhabitants. The majority, over ninety percent of them, experienced dizziness due to the sonic impact, and in more severe cases, some were bleeding from all orifices, collapsing to the ground lifelessly.
After a brief pause, a pale middle-aged man ascended from within the mansion, his gaze locked on Zhao An Yi from afar, filled with terror. Nevertheless, he summoned the bravery to bow and asked, "Sir, may I ask how my daughter and I have provoked your wrath?"
Although Duan Nian Tian stood next to Zhao An Yi, Guo Qiu failed to recognize him since they had never met before.
However, within the Guo Mansion, a dramatic realization dawned on Guo Li Li, a beautiful young woman with a full figure. Her face was pale, and her eyes were wide with shock and disbelief when she saw Duan Nian Tian next to Zhao An Yi.
"Duan Nian Tian?! How could it be him? Where did he find such a powerhouse? Did he come to seek revenge from me?"
At this moment, Guo Li Li was overwhelmed with regret. Had she known Duan Nian Tian was capable of this, she would have killed him back then.
"Sister, do you know him?"
Next to Guo Li Li stood another young woman, similar in appearance but possessing a more graceful figure. She, too, was slightly pale. The aftereffects of the sound wave caused her eardrums to rupture and immense discomfort, disrupting her cultivation.
This was Guo Yao Yao, the second daughter of Guo Qiu.
"Yao Yao!"
Just then, Yang Chun caught sight of Guo Yao Yao. His eyes sparkled with excitement as he turned to Yang Tian He, saying, "Father, she's the woman I love! What a coincidence that someone came looking for trouble with my future father-in-law and sister-in-law! Father, if you protect them, they'll definitely have a better impression of me!"
