Chapter 2501 Pull Yourself Together
Yun Qing Yan’s revelation was like a bolt of lightning that struck Duan Ling Tian on a clear day.
Feng Qing Yang, the Heavenly Emperor of Solitary Destructive Heaven, one of the Devata Realms, was one of the strongest people in the Devata Realm. Not only was Yun Qing Yan unafraid of him, but he even sent his men after him. Moreover, he revealed that the Solitary Destructive Heaven no longer had a Heaven Emperor!
Duan Ling Tian, naturally, knew what this meant. The men whom Yun Qing Yan sicced on Feng Qing Yang had taken Feng Qing Yang’s life. Still in shock and disbelief, he quickly sent a Voice Transmission to Ke’er. “Ke’er, are his men really capable of killing a Heavenly Emperor of a Devata Realm?”
Duan Ling Tian was not certain if Yun Qing Yan’s men were truly capable of killing a Heavenly Emperor of a Devata Realm, but he was certain Ke’er must know.
Ke’er replied through Voice Transmission, “Brother Tian, if he sent his men to kill a Heavenly Emperor of a Devata Realm, save for a few extremely strong Heavenly Emperors, most would not be able to escape with their lives intact.” Since she had regained memories from her past life, she knew Yun Qing Yang had capable men under him who were capable of such a feat.
Duan Ling Tian felt his heart sink upon hearing Ke’er’s confirmation. He glared at Yun Qing Yan as he growled, “Feng Qing Yang and I have never even met… Why would you vent your anger on him because of me?”
“Why did I vent my anger on him?” Yun Qing Yan calmly replied, “Well, if you’re looking for someone to blame, then, you can only blame yourself for receiving his legacy. Apart from that, with Feng Qing Yang’s exceptional talent, I can’t leave him be as well. You pose no threat to me, but if Feng Qing Yang was given more time, I can’t say for sure that he won’t be a threat to me.” Naturally, there were other things that Yun Qing Yan did not reveal to Duan Ling Tian. Apart from removing a future threat, since Feng Qing Yang might seek revenge for Duan Ling Tian, he was also worried that after Duan Ling Tian ascended to a Devata Realm, Duan Ling Tian would grow stronger under Feng Qing Yang’s guidance. He could not allow something like that to happen. He had come to this conclusion on his own after thinking about it.
After all, Yun Qing Yan had meticulously planned all of this. He had anticipated many possibilities and eventualities before appearing in front of Duan Ling Tian and Ke’er. He had also anticipated this today. He had anticipated that his cousin would not willingly return with him, and he would be unable to kill Duan Ling Tian due to his cousin’s threat. However, he knew once he imprisoned Duan Ling Tian’s family and friends, his cousin would have no choice but to obediently return with him. Leaving Duan Ling Tian alive meant he was giving an opportunity for Duan Ling Tian to grow stronger. Despite his conviction that Duan Ling Tian would never pose a threat to him, even with Feng Qing Yang’s help, he decided to get rid of Feng Qing Yang as an extra precaution. With this, he felt he no longer needed to fear Duan Ling Tian’s heaven-defying talent.
“You… You… You deserve death!” Duan Ling Tian glared at Yun Qing Yan furiously, his body was trembling all over. His body had just regained some power and had now become agitated.
“Even if I deserve death, you don’t have the power to do anything to me.” Yun Qing Yan looked at Duan Ling Tian disdainfully. He sneered as he rose into the sky and looked at Ke’er. He waved his hand as he said, “Cousin, it’s time to go!”
Then, Ke’er’s figure turned into an afterimage, just like Yun Qing Yan, and disappeared.
“Ke’er!” Duan Ling Tian cried out as though his heart had been hollowed out, and he had lost his soul as he watched Ke’er disappear before his eyes. He felt as though he was drowning in a sea of anguish.
Before Ke’er left, she sent a Voice Transmission that rang clearly in Duan Ling Tian’s ears. “Brother Tian! Don’t worry. I’ll protect father, mother, Sister Fei’er, Sister Tian Wu, and the others. I won’t let harm come to them! There’s another thing. My name in the past was Xia Ning Xue. I’m from the Xia family, one of the Ten Great Clans in Divine Offering Land! The Divine Offering Land is…”
Unfortunately, before Ke’er’ could finish explaining the Divine Offering Land, her Voice Transmission was cut off. It was obvious she had been taken away before she could finish sending the Voice Transmission.
‘Xia Ning Xue! The Divine Offering Land! I’ll remember this!’ Duan Ling Tian summed up the important parts of Ke’er’s Voice Transmission. She was Xia Ning Xue in her past life, and her family, the Xia family, was one of the Ten Great Clans in the Divine Offering Land. Her words, her name and the place he was unfamiliar with, were deeply etched in his mind.
At this moment, Duan Ling Tian could finally use a little of his power, and he began to heal his wounds. At the same time, he took out a Healing Medicinal Pill from his Spatial Ring before swallowing it to aid the healing of injuries. Due to his heavy injuries, he only managed to forcibly move his body after half an hour.
After an hour had passed, Duan Ling Tian finally managed to flip around and lay on his back, staring at the boundless azure sky. His eyes were filled with despair as though he had lost his soul, and he did not move for a long time.
Those who were unaware of what was going on would have thought he was a corpse if they saw him from afar.
This day was an incomparable dark day for Duan Ling Tian. His wife, Ke’er, had been taken away. Moreover, his family and friends had been taken away as well. He had to helplessly watch as Yun Qing Yan take Ke’er, his family, and friends away.
“Trash… I’m trash… I’m trash!!” This was the first time Duan Ling Tian had mercilessly belittled himself. Faced with Yun Qing Yan’s overwhelming strength, his strength that was considered the peak in the mundane realms was useless and not worth mentioning at all. He was like an ant in front of Yun Qing Yan, and Yun Qing Yan could easily squash him to death. Yun Qing Yan did not even need to move, with just a thought from Yun Qing Yan, he would meet a tragic end.
“Who on earth is Yun Qing Yan? Even his men are capable of killing a Heavenly Emperor from a Devata Realm. Moreover, where’s the Divine Offering Land?” Duan Ling Tian’s mind was filled with confusion. He had assumed Yun Qing Yan was just a powerful Celestial from a Devata Realm, he did not expect Yun Qing Yan was capable of killing a Heavenly Emperor from a Devata Realm. Unexpectedly, Yun Qing Yan did not even need to personally make a move, his men were more than capable of that job. Even if Yun Qing Yan was not as strong as a Heavenly Emperor, to have such men under him meant his background was extraordinary.
“Senior Feng Qing Yang…” When Duan Ling Tian thought about his master who had left him the legacy and whom he had never met before, his heart felt heavy with guilt. The feeling of guilt stubbornly remained in his heart, refusing to leave. After all, his master had died by association to him. He would not have grown so strong if he did not have the legacy. How could he not feel guilty that Feng Qing Yang had died because of him?
As time passed, Duan Ling Tian’s eyes were eventually filled with determination. “Don’t worry, master… I’ll avenge you one day!” Although he had experienced the wide gulf between him and Yun Qing Yan that seemed like the distance between heaven and earth, he did not allow himself to feel discouraged. He resolved to close the gap between him and Yun Qing Yan and avenge Feng Qing Yang.
Based on Yun Qing Yan’s words earlier, Duan Ling Tian figured out that Ke’er family had to be extraordinary as well. If he wanted the blessing from her family, he would have to become stronger as well.
“Father, mother, Little Fei’er, Tian Wu, Nian Tian, Si Ling… Wait for me. I’ll save you from that ice-cold prison as soon as possible!” Duan Ling Tian’s feeling of guilt increased when he thought about his family and friends who were imprisoned by Yun Qing Yan. After all, Yun Qing Yan would not have targeted him if it were not because of him.
“My… My strength is still too weak!” Before today, Duan Ling Tian had felt an unavoidable sense of pride in his strength ever since he possessed strength comparable to a Nine Tribulation Bodily Celestial. However, after meeting Yun Qing Yan, he knew that he was still woefully weak. His power was nothing in front of a true powerhouse.
…
Three days.
Duan Ling Tian lay on the mountain for three days. He thought about many things as he lay there. He had despaired and felt loss, his emotions fluctuated continuously. However, in the end, he pulled himself together.
“I’m afraid these wounds will need about ten days to half a month to completely heal.” Duan Ling Tian had finally regained his composure. He no longer looked like someone who had just lost his family and friends. Naturally, this was just a mask he put on. How could someone like him who cherished affection and loyalty be completely unaffected? He had merely buried his pain and despair in the depth of his heart.
