Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Is he Duan Ling Tian?”

“He’s really young.”

“Duan Ling Tian not only looks young, but he’s really young. He’s not even 3,000 years old!”

Duan Ling Tian attracted the attention of many people from the factions in the Pure Yang Sect after they boarded the flying ship. Previously, there were many people who questioned his ability, but after the incident in Seven Kills Valley, no one doubted him anymore, and they thought his reputation was well-deserved.

Many among the younger generation in the flying ship were at Seven Kills Valley previously so they had personally witnessed Duan Ling Tian’s strength. For this reason, even those who were not in attendance were convinced. Apart from the confirmation from the others, they also watched the recordings from Floating Image Pearls.

At this moment, a handsome young man dressed in a white robe with an extraordinary bearing walked over to Duan Ling Tian. Earlier, he had been expressionless. However, in front of Duan Ling Tian now, he was smiling politely.

When Duan Ling Tian was looking at the young man curiously, Zhen Ping Fan, who saw this, said through Voice Transmission, “This is Senior Brother Ye Tong’s last direct disciple.”

An old man appeared in Duan Ling Tian’s mind at the mention of Ye Tong. Ye Tong was the Nirvanic Elder in the Hidden Sword faction who also attended the Trading Conference at Seven Kills Valley. Since Ye Chen Feng was leading the entourage to the Seven Mansions Feast this time, Ye Tong stayed back in the Pure Yang Sect.

Similarly, because Zhen Ping Fan was leading the entourage from the Cloud Peak faction, Zhen Yun Feng stayed behind in the Pure Yang Sect. Not counting the Sect Leader of the Pure Yang Sect, there were only two Emperors of Gods in the Cloud Peak faction, after all. It would not do to have both Emperors of Gods absent.

As for the Sect Leader of the Pure Yang Sect, he would not usually attend events unless it was important. After all, he was in control of the sect’s Guarding Formation. If anything were to happen, he might not be able to rush back in time.

The white-clad young man seemed aloof but he was polite when he said, “I’m Ye Ying Cai, the disciple of Nirvanic Elder Ye Tong of the Hidden Sword faction.”

Due to Ye Chen Feng and Ye Tong, Duan Ling Tian had a very good impression of the Hidden Sword faction. He said with a smile, “I’ve heard of you, but I didn’t know you’re Elder Ye Tong’s disciple. Elder Ye Tong is really lucky to have an outstanding disciple like you.”

Duan Ling Tian had heard of Ye Ying Cai a long time ago. Before he joined the Pure Yang Sect, Ye Ying Cai was one of the most powerful among those below the age of 10,000 in the Pure Yang Sect. He knew Ye Ying Cai was Ye Chen Feng’s granddisciple, but he was unaware that Ye Ying Cai was Ye Tong’s direct disciple. This was because Ye Chen Feng had quite a few disciples in the Hidden Sword faction, among which two of them were rudimentary Emperors of Gods.

Ye Ying Cai shook his head. He said solemnly, “How can that be? I’m the one who’s lucky to have him as my master. He’s the reason for my achievements.”

Based on Ye Ying Cai’s expression, Duan Ling Tian could tell that Ye Ying Cai respected Ye Tong greatly. Hence, his impression of Ye Ying Cai rose.

At this time, Zhen Ping Fan sent another Voice Transmission.

“Ye Ying Cai was originally from a lord-rank clan. However, his clan was destroyed by an Emperor of Gods from the Alliance of Benevolence and Justice when he was just an infant. Back then, Junior Uncle Ye happened to pass by and saw him swaddled in a piece of cloth. Junior Uncle Ye pitied him so he saved him. When Junior Uncle Ye stepped forward, the Emperor of Gods from the Alliance of Benevolence and Justice didn’t object. However, after returning to the Pure Yang Sect, a few people from the Alliance of Benevolence and Justice came over to look for Junior Uncle Ye. They wanted Junior Uncle Ye to promise them that he won’t tell Ye Ying Cai the truth of what happened. After all, they did not want an enemy from the Pure Yang Sect. For this reason, very few people know about Ye Ying Cai’s origin. Only a few people from the Hidden Sword faction and our Cloud Peak faction know about this. I’m only telling you this because I know you can keep a secret. Make sure you don’t let it slip. Otherwise, there’ll be trouble.”

Duan Ling Tian agreed.

“Ye Ying Cai thinks he’s an orphan whom Junior Uncle Ye brought back to the Pure Yang Sect,” Zhen Ping Fan said.

At the same time, Ye Ying Cai continued chatting with Duan Ling Tian and asked about his cultivation before he finally excused himself.

Duan Ling Tian could feel the shift in Ye Ying Cai’s attitude after they chatted. In the beginning, there was a trace of arrogance in Ye Ying Cai’s eyes, but as they continued to chat, the arrogance gradually disappeared.

This was because Ye Ying Cai found that the answers Duan Ling Tian had given him when he asked about Duan Ling Tian’s cultivation were very thought-provoking. Moreover, the answers also convinced him that the gap between him and Duan Ling Tian was justified.

Ye Ying Cai also learned that Duan Ling Tian seemed to have many skills because he had accumulated those skills since the time he was in the mundane realm. After being in the mundane realms, Devata Realms, and a Realm of Gods, it was not surprising that he had an arsenal full of skills. Although the skills were not particularly powerful, they were quite helpful at times. They also helped with his cultivation. Even if the help was not significant, it still made cultivation smoother.

With Ye Ying Cai serving as an example, many of the young disciples began to approach Duan Ling Tian to greet him. Many of them were friendly and outgoing.

Duan Ling Tian did not put on airs just because he was outstanding so he left a good impression on those who approached him.

“Senior Brother Duan, you’re really amazing! You actually defeated Wanqi Hong! You’ll definitely rank in the top three during the Seven Mansions Feast!”

“Senior Brother Duan, after the Seven Mansions Feast, let’s drink together! It’s my treat! I have some good wine that was brewed from precious ingredients in my family.We’ll celebrate your victory at that time! Let’s get drunk!”

“Senior Duan, you’re a prodigy so you must spend a lot of time cultivating. In the future, if you need help with any trivial matters, don’t hesitate to reach out to me. Although I’m not as talented as you, it won’t be a problem for me to handle trivial matters”

The group of young people was happy to befriend Duan Ling Tian since he was not arrogant. Moreover, his talent and comprehension skills were in a different league that they did not think there was a point in feeling jealous at all. At most, a few of them felt envious. Apart from that, they knew they had nothing to lose by befriending Duan Ling Tian. In fact, they might even benefit from it. It would be harder to befriend Duan Ling Tian once he grew stronger.

While the young people chatted, the elders from the various factions in the Pure Yang Sect looked at Duan Ling Tian with admiration.

“He’s so outstanding, and yet, he’s not arrogant at all. If he’s willing to stay in our sect, when the time comes, I don’t think anyone will object if the sect leader passes the mantle to him.”

“Alas, that’s unlikely to happen. In the past, he had made it clear to the people from the Yu Yang faction that his goal lies beyond the Pure Yang Sect. He’ll leave sooner or later. He’s really admirable. If it were someone else, they might have accepted the Yu Yang faction’s offer without revealing their intention to reap the benefits before leaving. Duan Ling Tian truly has a great character.”

Duan Ling Tian was unaware that he had received so many praises.

...

At the same time, in the other flying ship from the Pure Yang Sect that belonged to Liu Feng Gu, the founder of the Tyrannic Saber faction.

The people onboard were chatting in groups of threes to fives. They were a few people who were the subject of everyone’s gaze.

These few people were like Ye Ying Cai. They were among the strongest prodigies in the Pure Yang Sect.

In a corner, a figure sat cross-legged alone as though he had been forgotten by everyone on the flying ship.

Upon seeing this, a middle-aged man asked the old man next to him, “Senior brother, what’s wrong with Qian Ye? Why does it feel like he’s turned into a different person?”

The old man was Yuan Han Jin, the adopted son of Yuan Ping Shen, who was the founder of the Ping Sheng faction. He was also Yang Qian Ye’s master.

The middle-aged man was Yuan Han Jin’s junior brother, a Transcendence Elder of the Pure Yang Sect.

Upon hearing this question, Yuan Han Jin glanced at the gloomy Yang Qian Ye sitting in a corner before he shook his head and said, “He probably has yet to recover from his father’s death.”

Upon hearing this, Yuan Han Jin’s junior brother’s eyes flashed before he said through Voice Transmission, “Senior brother, I’ve inquired about Qian Ye’s father’s death. It’s said his father is killed by Long Qing Chong, the Sect Leader of the Flying Dragon Sect. Do you really not plan to help him? Although you can’t attack him openly in the Flying Dragon Sect, it shouldn’t be a problem if you lie in wait and attack when he leaves the Flying Dragon Sect’s estate, right?”
