2484 The Target Appeared

Above the dragon clan’s estate in the 100,000 Towering Mountains, a purple-clad young man hovered in the air as he looked down indifferently. His eyes flashed viciously as he murmured, “Senior Brother Gu Li, I’ll avenge you today!”

The purple-clad young man who had invaded the dragon clan’s estate was none other than Duan Ling Tian

Duan Ling Tian was not lying earlier when he said he would annihilate the dragon clan if they did not hand over the culprit responsible for Gu Li, Yue Wu Ying, and Han Xue Nai’s master’s deaths. Initially, he had thought to directly annihilate the dragon clan since he had Ke’er’s help. If Ke’er got involved, let alone one dragon clan, she would be able to annihilate more than one dragon clan. However, after thinking about it, he decided to only kill those responsible for Gu Li and Yue Wu Ying’s deaths. After all, the dragon clan still had its uses. They could suppress the Devil Clans. Well, that was under the condition that the dragon clan no longer provoked the Seven Absolutes Sect. If the dragon clan would not cooperate, then, he would no longer be kind and annihilate the entire dragon clan.

Duan Ling Tian had boldly come alone because he had learned from Chen Yi Ru that there were no Bodiless Celestials who had cultivated the Soul Congregation Embodiment technique in the dragon clan. Otherwise, he would not have been so foolish to come alone. Even if the dragon clan had a Three Tribulation Bodiless Celestials who had cultivated the Soul Congregation Embodiment technique, he would fall into a disadvantageous position. Knowing this, he had boldly announced that he would annihilate the dragon clan if they did not hand over the culprit who killed Gu Li and Yue Wu Ying!

Duan Ling Tian thought to himself, ‘Anyway, it doesn’t matter even if they have Bodiless Celestials who cultivated the Soul Congregation Embodiment technique. If I summon Ke’er over, and with my current strength, even if they have a Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial who cultivated the Soul Congregation Embodiment technique, there’s no need for me to be afraid at all.’

Duan Ling Tian felt reassured when he thought about Ke’er. ‘With Ke’er’s strength that’s comparable to a Golden Celestial in a Devata Realm and her soul that’s also similar to an ordinary Golden Celestial, it should be easy for her to counter the attack from a Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial who has cultivated the Soul Congregation Embodiment technique.’

Before entering the Beyond Heaven Secret Zone, Duan Ling Tian did not expect that a day would come when he could rely on Ke’er. Her strength had also raised his confidence.

Duan Ling Tian continued thinking to himself, ‘If the dragon clan doesn’t accede to my request, I’ll just annihilate them. With Ke’er and my strength, even if the dragon clan ceases to exist, there’s no need for us to fear the Devil Clans from the Land of Exile!’ His eyes shone brightly as he thought about this.

The breeze was soft and fresh up in the sky above the dragon clan’s estate where Duan Ling Tian was hovering.

On the contrary, it was total pandemonium in the dragon clan at this moment.

“Annihilate the dragon clan… Someone actually said he wants to annihilate our dragon clan?”

“In the long history of our dragon clan, I don’t think there’s anyone who dared to say they want to annihilate our clan. Is the Sect Leader of Seven Absolutes Sect trying to cause chaos here?”

Someone scoffed. “Since the Devil Clans have invaded our Upper Province, there isn’t any news of Duan Ling Tian over the past few years already… As soon as he reappears, not only did he appear in our dragon clan, he also threatens to annihilate us if we don’t hand over the culprit. How audacious!”

“I think our patriarch, the Supreme Elder, and the others must have already heard Duan Ling Tian’s words, right?”

Another person snorted. “If our patriarch and Supreme Elders appear, Duan Ling Tian would surely die!”

Similar discussion could be heard everywhere in the dragon clan’s estate. All the members of the dragon clan did not take Duan Ling Tian seriously. They were confident he was not strong enough to annihilate the dragon clan. In their opinion, him coming here was akin to committing suicide.

…

Somewhere in the dragon clan estate.

“I was the one who killed Gu Li… However, I was merely obeying the order of Supreme Elder, Elder Di Huan. Based on Duan Ling Tian’s words, he wants us to hand over Supreme Elder Di Huan to him?” A middle-aged man muttered disdainfully. When he heard Duan Ling Tian’s words, he was sitting cross-legged, cultivating.

“He wants us to hand over Elder Di Huan to him? How preposterous!”

“Even if we hand over Elder Di Huan to him, is he even a match for Elder Di Huan? Would he even be able to avenge the members of Seven Absolutes Sect?”

The two dragon clan’s members who received orders from Di Huan’s order to kill Yue Wu Ying and Han Xue Nai’s master smiled contemptuously. Their words dripped with disdain when they spoke.

Di Huan, the Supreme Elder of the dragon clan, was also Di Chen’s father. Di Chen had failed his tribulation due to his obsession with Duan Ling Tian.

At that time, Duan Ling Tian had forced Di Huan to kneel and beg for forgiveness. This created a knot in Di Huan’s heart, causing him to fail his tribulation. For this reason, Di Chen’s father, Di Huan, regarded Duan Ling Tian as his arch-enemy. Di Huan hated Duan Ling Tian so much that he wanted to tear him into a million pieces before burning him into ashes.

When Di Huan learned that Duan Ling Tian was the current Sect Leader of Seven Absolutes Sect, he turned his hatred to Seven Absolutes Sect and its member, killing those he encountered.

…

In a wide valley in the dragon clan’s estate.

Bang!

A loud explosion sounded as the calmness of a lake shattered. The water splashed far and wide, making an extremely dazzling sight.

Swoosh!

A figure shot out from the lake and headed toward the horizon as swift as a cannon that had been shot out. After a while, a figure appeared above the valley.

All the Bodiless Celestials in the dragon clan instantly recognized the figure. It was none other than Di Huan, one of the three Supreme Elders in the dragon clan. He was a Seven Tribulation Bodiless Celestial.

Di Huan who had been peacefully cultivating in the lake was extremely excited when he heard Duan Ling Tian’s voice. He laughed as he said, “Duan Ling Tian, I can’t believe you came to the dragon clan’s estate on your own accord! Very good! Very good!”

During the past few years, Di Huan had never stopped searching for Duan Ling Tian even after the Devil Clans invaded the Upper Province. His top priority was to seek revenge for his son. This had also caused a knot to form in his heart, becoming an obsession. If Duan Ling Tian did not die, it was highly likely that he would not be able to pass his eighth Bodiless Celestial Tribulation as well.

For this reason, Di Huan did not care about the Devil Clans invading the Upper Province. The Devil Clans’ invasion and killing humans had nothing to do with him. He only wanted to search for Duan Ling Tian to kill him. He would be able to avenge his son, and at the same time, he could remove the knot and obsession in his heart. His personal matter was of utmost priority. He would only kill the devils if they were standing before him and intending to kill him. Even if the patriarch sent him out to deal with the devils, he would only do so out of obligation.

Now that Duan Ling Tian had come, how could he not feel excited? Even if he was cultivating, it did not matter.

Di Huan’s eyes darkened as his expression turned disdainful as he said, “Annihilate the dragon clan? I’d like to see you eat your words. I wonder where you got your courage from.”

Bang!

A loud explosion rang in the air as Di Huang moved, leaving cracks like spider webs in the void.

Swoosh!

In just a blink of an eye, Di Huan had risen into the sky as wind blew violently. He flew to the source of the voice. As he flew, he bellowed, “Duan Ling Tian! I, Di Huan, am the one who ordered my men to kill the members of your Seven Absolutes Sect. I want to see where a brat like you got your courage from for being so delusional to think you can annihilate the dragon clan! As the Supreme Elder of the dragon clan, I’ll kill you today so the world knows that they can’t trample on the dragon clan’s pride and dignity!” His voice spread through to the entire dragon clan’s estate.

….

Another commotion erupted as soon as Di Huan spoke.

“It’s Elder Di Huan!”

“Elder Di Huan is coming out!”

“Let’s go! Let’s go see what’s going on… Since Duan Ling Tian audaciously announced he would annihilate the dragon clan, I want to see how many moves he’ll be able to receive from Elder Di Huan before he dies!”

Someone scoffed. “Not only is Elder Di Huan a Supreme Elder of our dragon clan, but he’s also a Seven Tribulation Bodiless Celestial. I’m afraid Duan Ling Tian won’t even be able to withstand a strike from Elder Di Huan.”

“I agree.”

The members who were enraged by Duan Ling Tian’s words became excited when they heard Di Huan’s voice that resonated in the entire dragon clan’s estate.
