Chapter 3939: The Cloud Peak Faction

Duan Ling Tian chose a medium-sized building near the mountains with beautiful scenery.

Qin Wu Yang smiled when he saw Duan Ling Tian’s choice. He said, “This place was built not long ago. Its environment is one of the best, and it’s meant for new disciples of our faction. You really have a discerning eye.”

“As the saying goes, ‘First come, first served’. Since he chose it first, it means he’s fated to stay there,” Zhao Lu added.

With that, Duan Ling Tian finally had his own cultivation ground and courtyard in the Pure Yang Sect.

Zhao Lu said, “Duan Ling Tian, contact me when you’re free tomorrow. I’ll bring you to register yourself.” Then, he said to Qin Wu Yang, “Brother Qin, you must be tired from the journey so should rest. I’ll take over from here and help him with the registration.”

Qin Wu Yang chuckled, “Brother Zhao is the most considerate to me. Duan Ling Tian, Brother Zhao will help you with your registration tomorrow. If you need any help in the future, you can look for me or him. If we can solve the matter, we can look for my junior granduncle. In the Pure Yang Sect, there’s almost nothing that junior granduncle can’t resolve.” Then, he seemed to recall something, and his smile faded a little as he said, “I’m sure you know that there are also matters that would be inconvenient for junior granduncle to interfere in such as trivial matters between the juniors. In any case, I’m sure you’ll be very outstanding among your peers.”

Many who watched the recording of Duan Ling Tian killing the two intermediate Lords of Gods thought that Duan Ling Tian was just lucky. They speculated that perhaps, the two intermediate Lords of Gods were injured to begin with.

Initially, Qin Wu Yang thought the same as well. However, during his visit to the Flying Dragon Sect, he had asked around and confirmed that the two intermediate Lords of Gods, whose strength was comparable to inner elders of the Flying Dragon Sect, were in peak condition when Duan Ling Tian killed them. For this reason, he was very confident about Duan Ling Tian’s ability.

“Elder Qin, don’t worry. I understand,” Duan Ling Tian said with a smile, “If it’s a trivial matter between the juniors, it’s best to settle the issue with our own strength.”

Qin Wu Yang’s smile widened. “That’s right! You don’t have to worry about the other party’s background since junior granduncle is on your side! Truly, those who try to look for trouble with you will be very unlucky!”

Duan Ling Tian nodded. He was grateful and relieved that he had the support of a prominent and important figure like Zhen Ping Fan. After all, Zhen Ping Fan was not only powerful, but his background and connections were extraordinary.

After bidding farewell to Qin Wu Yang and Zhao Lu, Duan Ling Tian entered his residence.

Before Zhao Lu left, he taught Duan Ling Tian how to activate the formation to indicate that the building was occupied. He also instructed Duan Ling Tian to engrave his name on the stone table next to the main entrance.

Duan Ling Tian’s residence had a front and back yard. There was a pond and a small plot of land planted with flowers and medicinal herbs in the backyard. Duan Ling Tian managed to identify a few of the medicinal herbs.

In the front yard, there was a small rockery near a pavilion with a huge stone table and six stone benches. The path in the front yard was laid with blue stone tiles.

‘This place is quite nice,’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself with a smile. It was the nicest place he had lived in since he came to the Profound Energy Land.

Then, he entered the biggest room, which was the master bedroom.

‘That’s right. I should remind Elder Qin about the Destruction Divine Shuttles,’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself before he sent a message to Qin Wu Yang.

Qin Wu Yang responded immediately and said that he would get in touch with someone from the Pure Yang Sect to forge the Destruction Divine Shuttles.

Upon hearing Qin Wu Yang’s message, Duan Ling Tian quickly replied, “Elder Qin, it’s not that urgent. Please rest before you deal with this matter.”

Duan Ling Tian felt rather embarrassed. He did not expect Qin Wu Yang to reply so quickly.

However, in less than 15 minutes, Duan Ling Tian received a message from Qin Wu Yang.

“Duan Ling Tian, I’ve contacted the artifact expert. He’s not in the sect right now and will only return after a period of time. He doesn’t have the materials needed to forge the shuttles so I’ll help you gather them so he can forge them for you when he returns.”

“Thank you so much, Elder Qin,” Duan Ling Tian said, thanking Qin Wu Yang profusely, “How much would it cost, Elder Qin? I’ll pass you the divine crystals needed.”

“No need,” Qin Wu Yang said casually, “The materials aren’t rare or precious. I can still afford them. Just consider this a welcome gift from me.”

Qin Wu Yang was very insistent so Duan Ling Tian could only accept his kind gesture. In the end, he decided to refine a few divine pills to thank Qin Wu Yang.

After ending his conversation with Qin Wu Yang, he began to think about his current situation.

“I’m now in the Pure Yang Sect, not the Flying Dragon Sect. There are many powerhouses here. The faction I joined even has an intermediate Emperor of Gods. It’ll be impossible for me to hide the fact that I can refine lord-grade Limit Divine Pills here. If I want to refine them, I’ll have to leave the Pure Yang Sect’s estate. Fortunately, I don’t have enemies in the Pure Yang Sect like I did in the Flying Dragon Sect so I don’t have to be so cautious in everything I do.”

At this moment, a thought suddenly appeared in Duan Ling Tian’s mind.

“That’s right. I almost forgot that Yang Qian Ye, the son of the Sect Leader of the 10,000 Devils Sect, is in the Pure Yang Sect as well. The Flying Dragon Sect killed quite a number of high-ranking officials in the 10,000 Devils Sect. I wonder if the Sect Leader of the 10,000 Devils Sect is among them?”

Following that, Duan Ling Tian sent a message to Long Qing Chong to enquire about this matter.

Long Qing Chong replied quickly and told him that the Sect Leader of the 10,000 Devils Sect was still alive. According to Xue Ming Zhi, the Sect Leader of the 10,000 Devils Sect was not involved in the matter.

‘Since that’s the case, there’s no great enmity between me and Yang Qian Ye. Perhaps, he might oppose me, but it won’t be to the extent where he wants my life,’ Duan Ling Tian mused inwardly, ‘Moreover, even if he wants to kill me, he’ll have to see if he’s capable of doing so. It’s unlikely unless he has a very strong background in the Pure Yang Sect…’

At the end of his thoughts, Duan Ling Tian closed his eyes and began to cultivate to pass the time until he had to complete his registrations with Zhao Lu tomorrow.

…

At the same time, Yang Qian Ye had just received news about Duan Ling Tian’s arrival in the Pure Yang Sect.

“Duan Ling Tian has arrived in Pure Yang Sect and has joined the Cloud Peak faction similar to Elder Qin?”

The expression of Yang Qian Ye, who was sitting cross-legged on his bed, was quite unsightly at this moment.

Naturally, he had heard about the disaster that landed on the 10,000 Devils Sect. He knew Xue Ming Zhi had gone to the 10,000 Devils Sect and killed quite a number of high-ranking officials, accusing them of being involved in the hiring of the death warriors who tried to assassinate Duan Ling Tian. Among the people Xue Ming Zhi killed was Du Zhan, a Supreme Elder of the 10,000 Devils Sect. Apart from that, his childhood friend, Du Po Jun, and Du Qian Jun, whom he treated like a younger brother, were also executed in the Flying Dragon Sect due to their connections to Kuang Tian Zheng.

In fact, Yang Qian Ye only learned of Du Po Jun and Du Qian Jun’s deaths when his father, Lan Qing, informed him about Xue Ming Zhi’s killing spree in the 10,000 Devils Sect and the death of Du Zhan. His father no longer hid the matter from him since the news would reach him sooner or later.

“How did Duan Ling Tian become a Lord of Gods so quickly? He’s almost caught up to my cultivation now. More importantly, how did he manage to kill those two intermediate Lords of Gods?”

Due to his status in the Yang Qian Ye, he was privy to information regarding the assassination attempt on Duan Ling Tian. Moreover, an elder of the 10,000 Devils faction, who was his senior uncle, was present when the attempt took place. After speaking to his senior uncle, he confirmed that the two death warriors were in peak conditions; their strength was comparable to his senior uncle who was considered quite strong among the inner elders of the Flying Dragon Sect.
