War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

Chapter 2427 I’m Su Li

“Seeking... death!” As soon as the red-eyed young man spoke, his Saint Origin that was laced with Devil Qi surged out of his hands before solidifying into a formidable-looking three-foot-long blade. He looked at Qing Huo with killing intent, preparing to kill Qing Huo.

Suddenly, a voice rang out from the wooden cabin in the valley. “Aunt! Who came? Did daddy and the others return?”

A young girl appeared soon after. The young girl looked about 10 years old, but her appearance was already beautiful. It was not difficult to imagine that she would certainly be a beauty when she grew up.

The young girl who had appeared successfully caught the red-eyed young man’s attention who was previously about to kill Qing Huo.

‘No!’ Although Qing Huo was temporarily safe, he could not help but panic when he saw the red-eyed young man shifting his attention to the young girl.

“Si Ling!” Gan Ru Yan cried out. She did not expect the little girl would rush out at this time.

The young girl who had rushed out of the wooden cabin was none other than Duan Ling Tian and Ke’er’s daughter, Duan Si Ling.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Like two gusts of wind, the Old Prophet and Gan Ru Yan instantly flew out and shielded Duan Si Ling, protecting her like adult wolves protecting their cub.

To Gan Ru Yan, Duan Si Ling was her niece. There was no doubt she would willingly sacrifice her life to save Duan Si Ling.

As for the Old Prophet, Duan Si Ling was the daughter of the Sect Leader of Seven Absolutes Sect. Since he had devoted his life to the Seven Absolutes Sect, how could he stay idle now that the sect leader’s daughter’s life was threatened?

“Get out of the way...” The red-eyed young man said hoarsely.

Both Gan Ru Yan and the Old Prophet could feel the force from the red-eyed young man’s voice pressuring them before sending them flying.

Gan Ru Yan managed to quickly stabilize herself so she was not injured. On the contrary, the Old Prophet whose cultivation base was lower than her fell violently on the ground before throwing up blood.

“Aunt! Grandpa Prophet!” Duan Si Ling finally regained her senses at this time. Her childish face changed expression drastically.

Swoosh!

Just like a gust of wind, the red-eyed young man appeared before Duan Si Ling in just a blink of an eye.

Duan Si Ling was, after all, only a little girl who was about ten years old. Confronted with an intimidating and scary looking man, naturally, terrified her. Her body was stiff and her face turned pale immediately.

“Sir, she’s merely a child! You...” Qing Huo began to say, but before he could finish speaking, he was blasted away by the red-eyed man.

In just a short moment, he had hurt all three people.

“You...” Gan Ru Yan wanted to say something but Qing Huo stopped her via voice transmission.

“Ru Yan, it’s better for us to observe the situation for now. It doesn’t seem like he has any killing intent toward Si Ling... In fact, his killing intent toward me isn’t as strong when he was looking at Si Ling!”

When Gan Ru Yan heard Qing Huo’s words, she began to observe the red-eyed young man. Indeed. There was no killing intent from the red-eyed man at all when he was standing before Duan Si Ling. Even the red in his eyes had begun to fade.

“What’s he doing?” Gan Ru Yan, Qing Huo, and the Old Prophet were baffled.

After a while, the red in the young man’s eyes disappeared completely and his eyes returned to normal. With this alone, he seemed to have transformed into another different person. A cold smile appeared on his indifferent face as he asked Duan Si Ling, “Who... Who are you to Duan Ling Tian? There’s something about you that seems similar to him!”

Gan Ru Yan, Qing Huo, and the Old Prophet became even more baffled. They did not expect this young man who seemed to have come with bad intentions would ask such a question.

When Gan Ru Yan regained her senses, she blurted out, “Duan Ling Tian? H-he knows Duan Ling Tian?”

“Is it because Si Ling’s brows are similar to Guardian Ling Tian?” Qing Huo was dumbfounded.

“H-he knows the sect leader?” Even the Old Prophet felt perplexed.

In any case, all three of them could not help but sigh in relief. It seemed like Duan Si Ling was in no danger.

“Y-you... Do you know my daddy?” Initially, Duan Si Ling was so petrified that her body had instinctively stiffened. However, the fear in her heart dissipated when she heard the young man’s words. Her eyes when she looked at the young man now contained more curiosity than fear.

“Daddy? Y-you’re Duan Ling Tian’s daughter? The fellow already has a daughter?” The young man was dumbfounded. Then, he began to laugh. “Well, it’s only natural. After all, so much time has passed since we last saw each other.”

“Who... who are you? How do you know my daddy?” The fear in Duan Si Ling’s eyes had completely faded, and the curiosity became even more pronounced.

“I’m a friend of your daddy. Of course, I know him.” The young man laughed.

“You’re my daddy’s friend?” Duan Si Ling asked skeptically, “Then, what’s your name? Although I’ve not met my daddy’s friends, I’ve heard about them before...”

“I’m Su Li... Did your daddy mention me before?” The smile on the young man’s face widened.

“Su Li?” Qing Huo and the Old Prophet were perplexed when they heard the young man’s name. They had not heard of him before. Even Gan Ru Yan could not help but frown. She had not heard this name before.

Unlike Qing Huo, the Old Prophet, and Gan Ru Yan, Duan Si Ling exclaimed excitedly, “Su Li? You... You’re uncle Su Li? Uncle Su Li, I’ve heard daddy talking about you.” At this moment, the fear in her heart had completely disappeared as she chattered, “Both of you met each other in Iron Blood City on Cloud Continent! At that time, both of you participated in the selection in the Iron Blood Soldier Genius Camp, right? Daddy told me that was the first time he met you!”

Upon hearing Duan Si Ling’s words, the young man known as Su Li seemed to become confused. “Iron Blood Soldier Genius Camp, Iron Blood City, Cloud Continent...” When he recovered his senses, he smiled at Duan Si Ling. “I didn’t think your daddy would tell you about this. Where’s your daddy now?”

“Daddy has entered the Sword Saint Secret Zone,” Duan Si Ling replied as she looked at the black hole that seemed bottomless in the void nearby. A hint of loneliness could be seen in her eyes at this moment.

“Sword Saint Secret Zone?” Su Li shifted his attention to the black hole in the void. “So this is the entrance to the Sword Saint Secret Zone?”

“Yes,” Duan Si Ling replied.

As soon as Duan Si Ling spoke, the energy from Su Li that had calmed down before to roil and surge out again.

Duan Si Ling was, naturally, shocked by this turn of events.

Boom!

In just a blink of an eye, the Devil Qi that Su Li had reigned in burst out again. His eyes that had just returned to normal turned red again. A vicious look could be seen in his eyes!

“Uncle Su Li?” Duan Si Ling called out tentatively in a soft voice when she saw Su Li had reverted back to his earlier form.

That three-foot-long blade that was transformed from Saint Origin and Devil Qi appeared in Su Li’s hands again. Sword rays continued to shoot out of the tip of the sword. His body was trembling violently as he ignored Duan Si Ling. He began to speak in an incoherent manner. “No... cannot...” It seemed as though it was exceedingly difficult for him to speak.

Xiu!

The sound of a sword cry rang in the air as he brought the sword up to slash down at Duan Si Ling.

“No!” Gan Ru Yan cried out when he saw Su Li was about to attack Duan Si Ling with his sword.

The Old Prophet and Qing Huo’s expressions had changed drastically as well.

If anything were to happen to Duan Si Ling, how would they explain it to Duan Ling Tian when he returned?

“Uncle Su Li...” Duan Si Ling had an expression of disbelief on her face when she saw Su Li was about to attack her. She did not expect Su Li, a good friend of her father, would attack her when he found out that she was her father’s daughter. At this moment when she was filled with fear and despair, she could not help but shut her eyes...
