4290 The Aeon Sword
Duan Ling Tian and Hong Zhang Yi stared at each other in shock, amazent, and disbelief.
After a few monts, Duan Ling Tian’s eyes glinted coldly while a hint of dread appeared in the depths of Hong Zhang Yi’s eyes.
At this mont, Hong Zhang Yi no longer had the arrogance he had when he t Duan Ling Tian for the first ti. At that ti, he had more than a dozen interdiate Supre Gods with him, giving him the strength to completely suppress Duan Ling Tian. However, at this ti, he was alone. Even if the other six people from the Scaling River Land were here at this mont, he did not think he would be able to deal with Duan Ling Tian.
Seeing that Duan Ling Tian was making his way over, Hong Zhang Yi quickly forced a smile on his face and said, “Duan Ling Tian… I have no grudge against you. I only tried to kill you previously because I was instigated by my senior brother, who’s my grandfather’s disciple. He hoped to rank in the top three of the rudintary Supre God ranking in the advanced chaotic region so he asked to help him deal with you.”
Hong Zhang Yi, who could keenly sense Duan Ling Tian’s killing intent, began to struggle to survive. Needless to say, the ‘senior brother’ he ntioned was a complete fabrication to appease Duan Ling Tian.
!!
“Do you think I’ll believe you?” Duan Ling Tian smiled coldly. Although he thought that the coincidence was too unbelievable, he naturally had no intention of letting Hong Zhang Yi go. This was an amazing opportunity. If he did not seize it, it was likely that he would not be given such an opportunity again. Even if this was not a coincidence and was arranged by soone, he still did not intend to let Hong Zhang Yi go. Only a supre powerhouse could arrange such a thing. If it was truly arranged by a supre powerhouse, it ant that the supre powerhouse likely did not have a good relationship with Hong Zhang Yi’s grandfather. After all, the supre powerhouse went out of his or her way to arrange for him and Hong Zhang Yi to et.
Seeing that his soft approach did not work on Duan Ling Tian, Hong Zhang Yi’s expression changed again. He did hesitate to switch to a hard approach. Whether it was a hard or a soft approach, it did not matter as long as he could survive. He said in a low and threatening voice, “Duan Ling Tian! If you dare to kill , my grandfather definitely won’t let you go! Don’t forget that my grandfather is a supre powerhouse. If he wants to kill you, it’ll be easier than killing an ant!”
Duan Ling Tian only smiled when he heard Hong Zhang Yi’s threatening words. He said, “Hong Zhang Yi, if I kill you today, do you think your grandfather will be able to find out that I did it?”
After a pause, Duan Ling Tian continued to say, “How about this? Why don’t you use the life-saving jade token he gave you? I’ll definitely retreat as soon as your grandfather’s manifestation appears. What do you think? He doesn’t even have to make a move and worry about breaking the rules of the Realm Battlefield. He just needs to show up. I’ll definitely retreat out of respect for a supre powerhouse.”
Duan Ling Tian’s smile grew wider and wider as he spoke. He was confident that Hong Zhang Yi did not possess a life-saving jade token.
“You…” Hong Zhang Yi’s face turned red in anger. Although his grandfather loved him dearly, he did not possess the precious life-saving jade token. In fact, he had taken the initiative to ask for one a few years ago, but he was chided by his grandfather in the end.
…
At the sa ti, in a hidden place not far from Duan Ling Tian and Hong Zhang Yi.
An old man appeared and asked, “Is this really alright? You want to help Duan Ling Tian seek revenge, but I’m afraid that if Old Ghost Hong finds out about it, he won’t let this matter go.”
If Duan Ling Tian heard this voice, he would have been able to recognize it. It belonged to the supre powerhouse who had helped the Ning clan’s supre powerhouse and another supre powerhouse to pass him fragnts of pri divine artifacts.
The old man did not show himself when he spoke to Duan Ling Tian so his voice left a deep impression on Duan Ling Tian. After all, it was the first ti a supre powerhouse had spoken to him.
A young man with an elegant bearing, who stood next to the old man, said indifferently and confidently, “So what if he knows? Is he a match for ?”
The old man said with a wry smile, “We’re all on the sa side. Isn’t it better to avoid conflict if possible?”
“As long as you don’t ntion this matter, he will never find out about this matter. Of course, it’ll also depend on whether I’m in a good mood or not…” the young man replied indifferently.
The old man shook his head helplessly. Then, he asked curiously, “Previously, you’ve already given him two fragnts of pri divine artifacts. Isn’t that enough? Why did you decide to help him seek revenge?”
The young man’s eyes flashed when he heard these words. He nodded slightly and said, “He’s truly remarkable. His mastery of the Sword Dao isn’t inferior to that of my father in his pri. In fact, it’s even stronger than mine. Once soone like him becos a supre powerhouse, the Aeon Sword will reappear in the God Defying World’s Outer Boundary.”
Upon hearing the words ‘Aeon Sword’, the old man’s expression turned solemn.
The Aeon Sword was a title given to a legendary figure. He had perished after killing several powerful people who invaded the God Defying World, and his sacrifice allowed the God Defying World to erge victorious in the battle. That legendary figure also comprehended the law of space and the Sword Dao. He was the strongest sword cultivator in the God Defying World.
That legendary figure was the father of the young man.
At this ti, the old man seed to have thought of sothing, and his eyes widened. “He… Don’t tell that Duan Ling Tian has sothing to do with your father’s disciple!”
The old man thought about how the purple-clad young man had also mastered the Sword Dao.
The young man glanced at the old man and said, “Old man, have you been following ?”
Upon hearing these words, the old man’s eyes brightened and he asked, “So there’s a connection?” Then, he quickly added, “If I were following you, you would’ve discovered . Tell … What connection does Duan Ling Tian have with your father’s disciple?”
The old man’s eyes shone with curiosity as he looked at the young man.
The young man looked at the purple figure in the distance before he said calmly, “He’s my junior brother’s disciple. His Sword Dao cos from my junior brother.”
The young man’s junior brother was his father’s disciple.
“What?!” the old man exclaid in shock, “He’s your junior brother’s disciple?”
After realization dawned on him, the old man muttered, “No wonder, no wonder… No wonder you pay so much attention to him. You even delivered Old Ghost Hong’s grandson to him! As it turns out, he’s your junior nephew!”
Duan Ling Tian was unaware that he had now gained a junior uncle who was a supre powerhouse.
The old man asked, “Have you thought about the possibility that he might not make a move against Old Ghost Hong’s grandson because he’s afraid of Old Ghost Hong?”
The young man smiled indifferently and said, “It doesn’t matter. I’ve given him this opportunity, what he does with it is completely up to him. However, if lets this opportunity go to waste, he’ll only create trouble for himself in the future. After all, I can’t protect him all the ti.” After a brief pause, he said, “However, I believe that he will seize this chance…”
The young man’s eyes were filled with confidence when he looked at Duan Ling Tian.
…
Duan Ling Tian ignored Hong Zhang Yi’s hard and soft approach. When Hong Zhang Yi tried to escape, he quickly disrupted the space in the surroundings.
Once Hong Zhang Yi realized that he could not escape, he began to plead for his life.
Duan Ling Tian naturally ignored Hong Zhang Yi’s pleas. Previously, he almost died because of Hong Zhang Yi. How could he let go of such a good opportunity to avenge himself?
After killing Hong Zhang Yi, Duan Ling Tian looked at his empty surroundings before he cupped his fists together in four directions. He was not certain if his encounter with Hong Zhang Yi was a coincidence or if it was arranged, but he still expressed his gratitude. Following that, he quickly left the valley.
…
“It seems like he figured it out,” the old man said.
“He’s not stupid,” the young man said with a faint smile, “Perhaps, it could be considered a coincidence to et Hong Zhang Yi in the secret realm. However, it’s too absurd to et Hong Zhang Yi again after leaving the secret realm… Such a coincidence isn’t out of the realm of possibility, but it’s extrely rare. It’s likely that he’s not completely certain himself, but he’s more inclined to believe that soone intervened.”
The young man’s smile widened as he continued to say, “In any case, his luck is quite good. It just so happened that the secret realm he was pulled into is in our area.”
“You…” the old man shook his head and said, “During the 900 years we’ve been overseeing this place, you smiled the most today… How is it? You must be happy now that you gained a junior brother and a junior nephew. After all, you’ve been treading on a solitary path up until now…”
