Chapter 4004: Departure

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Be quick if you have anything to say. You’re interrupting my cultivation,” Yang Qian Ye said. In the past, he hated Duan Ling Tian greatly and wished he could kill Duan Ling Tian because Duan Ling Tian was the cause of the deaths of his childhood friends, Du Po Jun and Du Qian Jun. However, a greater hatred had taken root in his heart, and he had a greater purpose now. He was determined to avenge his father and kill Long Qing Chong. Compared to Long Qing Chong, Duan Ling Tian was insignificant at this moment.

“I just spoke to Sect Leader Long,” Duan Ling Tian said bluntly.

“Did you convey my message to him?” Yang Qian Ye asked coldly.

Duan Ling Tian nodded.

“Then, that’s enough,” Yang Qian Ye replied coldly, “Since he has the guts to kill my father, he should be prepared for the consequences. He won’t have to wait very long…”

Yang Qian Ye spoke with certainty, confident about his progress.

Duan Ling Tian ignored Yang Qian Ye’s frosty and murderous expression and said, “Sect Leader Long asked me to convey something to you as well. He didn’t kill your father. If he wanted to kill your father and hide his identity at the same time, he wouldn’t have used such moves that would point to him. Moreover, his comprehension of the law is much higher than what was shown in the recording. He said that if you don’t believe him, you can go to the Flying Dragon Sect, and he’ll give you a demonstration to clear your doubts.”

After a beat, Duan Ling Tian asked, “That aside, do you not find the Floating Image Pearl that recorded your father’s death suspicious? How likely is it for your father to record the culprit with a Floating Image Pearl but was not detected by the culprit? If it was recorded by the culprit, why would the culprit leave such an important thing behind when he was clearly trying to hide his identity? Think about it.” After a pause, he added, “In any case, he said if you insist on seeking revenge from him, he’ll be waiting for you.”

After thinking about it for a moment, Duan Ling Tian said again, “To be honest, your matter has nothing to do with me. However, I’d just like to remind you that it’s best for you to find out the truth before you act. Even if you managed to kill Sect Leader Long, what if the true culprit isn’t him? At that time, wouldn’t the real culprit get away with it?”

Duan Ling Tian did not wait for Yang Qian Ye’s reply and left the room after he finished speaking. He felt like he had said more than enough, and it was none of his business what Yang Qian Ye chose to do going forward.

Yang Qian Ye naturally did not bother to see Duan Ling Tian off. His expressions had changed after listening to Duan Ling Tian’s words. He was strangely calm at this moment. After his father’s death, he was rarely calm unless he was cultivating. The bitter memories he had been unwilling to recall slowly resurfaced in his mind at this moment. With Duan Ling Tian’s reminder, he began to recall everything that he had learned about his father’s death. After that, just as Duan Ling Tian had said, he found that his father’s death was indeed highly suspicious. There were too many things that did not add up.

‘If it’s not Long Qing Chong, then who is it?’

Although Yang Qian Ye’s desperation to avenge his father did not change, he did not let his emotions get the better of him at this moment. He had been blinded by his grief and the thoughts of revenge previously, but with Duan Ling Tian’s reminder, he was finally able to think clearly.

......

…

Duan Ling Tian no longer thought about Yang Qian Ye. After all, the decision was in Yang Qian Ye’s hands. Moreover, he was rather confident that Yang Qian Ye would make the right decision. After all, Yang Qian Ye might be blinded by his grief and anger, but Yang Qian Ye was not stupid.

Over the next few days, Duan Ling Tian did not leave the inn at all. He continued to cultivate until the entourage from the Pure Yang Sect was ready to leave Snow Forest City to continue on their journey to the Profound Jade Mansion where the venue for the Seven Mansions Feast was located.

When everyone gathered, Ye Chen Feng said, “We won’t be stopping after this. For those who are participating in the Seven Mansions Feast, use this time to cultivate. You’re going to be competing against prodigies from the other six Mansions. I don’t expect all of you to rank in the top ten or even the top 30. Even if you rank in the top 100, you’ll still be greatly rewarded.”

This time, there were 66 young disciples from the Pure Yang Sect participating in the Seven Mansions Feast. This meant that there were roughly three disciples from each faction in the Pure Yang Sect. The young disciples were all Lords of Gods under the age of 10,000 years old.

Ordinary emperor-rank forces in the Eastern Ridge Mansion could only dream of having such a group of disciples. For example, the Flying Dragon Sect only had very few Lords of Gods below the age of 10,000.

Even the prodigies from the Pure Yang Sect were mostly rudimentary Lords of Gods. Most of them were only participating in the Seven Mansions Feast and to show off the number of young prodigies in the Pure Yang Sect.

In the beginning, the Seven Mansions Feast was a platform for the various forces’ outstanding prodigies to compete for a place for their elders to enter the Secret Holy Realm. However, it also became a place for the younger generation to display their talent and potential. Needless to say, the talent and potential of the younger generation of a force would dictate the rise or fall of a force in the future. After all, even if a force had an advanced Emperor of Gods, there was no guarantee the advanced Emperor of Gods would live for a long time. A force would eventually decline if it did not continue to produce new advanced Emperors of Gods.

At this moment, Zhen Ping Fan asked through Voice Transmission, “Duan Ling Tian, is Ye Ying Cai really related to the Fu clan?”

Coincidentally, Duan Ling Tian was looking at Ye Ying Cai, who was sitting cross-legged in a corner and staring blankly into space at this time. Then, he replied, “Yes. Ye Ying Cai just met his biological mother. He met his twin brother when we were on the street of Snow Forest City.”

“So he knows about the past?” Zhen Ping Fan asked with a raised eyebrow.

“Yes, he knows,” Duan Ling Tian replied.

“Junior Uncle Ye must have orchestrated the reunion,” Zhen Ping Fan said, “I’ve been thinking over the past few days. After all, why would Junior Uncle Ye need me to suggest taking a break in Snow Forest City when he could do it himself? Moreover, I suspect he also made sure Ye Ying Cai met his twin brother…”

Duan Ling Tian agreed with Zhen Ping Fan completely, but he did not say anything since he felt that it was inappropriate for him to comment on the matter.

“I have to admit Junior Uncle Ye is really smart. If the Alliance of Benevolence and Justice finds out that Ye Ying Cai is aware of what happened in the past, they won’t be able to blame Junior Uncle Ye at all even if they suspect he has a hand in this,” Zhen Ping Fan said. After a brief pause, he said, “However, why did Junior Uncle Ye choose this moment to let Ye Ying Cai reunite with his family? Duan Ling Tian, do you have any idea?”

Duan Ling Tian gave voice to his speculation. “Perhaps, he hopes revenge will drive Ye Ying Cai to progress faster?”

Zhen Ping Fan smiled bitterly. “Isn’t this pressure too much? The target of his revenge is the Alliance of Benevolence and Justice, after all. Moreover, Junior Uncle Ye and the Pure Yang Sect won’t be able to intervene in the matter on his behalf. After all, when the tragedy happened, Ye Ying Cai was not a member of the Pure Yang Sect yet. Moreover, the Alliance of Benevolence and Justice had already made a big concession to Junior Uncle Ye and our sect back then by sparing Ye Ying Cai’s life.”

Duan Ling Tian naturally had thought this as well. In the end, he replied with a smile, “Elder Zhen, if you’re really curious, why don’t you ask Elder Ye about it?”

Zhen Ping Fan rolled his eyes at Duan Ling Tian and said, “Don’t tell me you’re not curious at all? Hmm, I’m really quite curious. I’m going to ask him about it.”

Then, Zhen Ping Fan turned to look at Ye Chen Feng. After about a dozen breaths later, he turned to look at Duan Ling Tian, who was staring at him.

Duan Ling Tian could not help but ask, “What did Elder Ye say?”

Zhen Ping Fan wore a strange expression on his face, but he replied honestly, “According to Junior Uncle Ye, this is Ye Tong’s idea. Junior Uncle Ye naturally agreed. Otherwise, Ye Ying Cai wouldn’t have been able to reunite with his family. However, Junior Uncle Ye said that Ye Tong was inspired by someone you know…”

“Who is it?” Duan Ling Tian asked curiously.

Zhen Ping Fan’s eyes glinted as he replied, “Yang Qian Ye from the Ping Sheng faction.”

Duan Ling Tian was stunned. “What does this have to do with Yang Qian Ye?”

“Junior Uncle Ye said that Ye Tong told him that Yang Qian Ye recently broke through and became an intermediate Lord of Gods due to his father’s death!” Zhen Ping Fan said with a sigh, “I saw Yang Qian Ye previously, but I didn’t pay attention to him. I didn’t expect him to become an intermediate Lord of Gods so quickly. In the Pure Yang Sect, both of you held the record for taking the shortest time to become intermediate Lords of Gods. Not even Junior Uncle Ye and I were as fast as both of you. If it weren’t for you, Yang Qian Ye would’ve become the disciple who became an intermediate Lord of Gods in the shortest time in the Pure Yang Sect.”

Duan Ling Tian was surprised upon hearing Zhen Ping Fan’s words. It finally dawned on him why Yang Qian Ye seemed completely different from before. It also explained why Yang Qian Ye was so confident about killing Long Qing Chong to avenge his father in the future.

Zhen Ping Fan glanced at Ye Ying Cai, who was still staring blankly into space, before he said, “Yang Qian Ye’s comprehension of the law is quite profound as well. His strength should be comparable to that of Ye Ying Cai now.”
