War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

2737 In Exchange For The Divine Crystal!

Duan Ling Tian stared at Long Fei Yun intently as he asked, “Thirteenth Prince, did those greedy thoughts ever cross your mind?”

“To be honest, they did,” Long Fei Yun answered honestly, “However, I’ve already given you the Overarching Heaven Pill’s formula, and even if Qiu Ling suppresses Lady Huan’er, it doesn’t mean I’ll be able to obtain her celestial methods and Divine Abilities. Instead of taking a risk, I chose stability.”

Upon hearing Long Fei Yun’s words, the frost in Duan Ling Tian’s eyes seemed to thaw. “The thirteenth prince is wise.”

“I won’t be here today if I’m not,” Long Fei Yun said with a sigh. After a moment, as though he had recalled something, he said, “Brother Duan, I have a friend who possesses a Celestial Weapon that’s capable of hiding auras and the one’s true age. After you settle down in my residence, I’ll ask him to lend us the Celestial Weapon.”

“There’s such a Celestial Weapon?” Duan Ling Tian was surprised.

“Yes.” Long Fei Yun nodded. “It’s just extremely rare. Although it’s called a Celestial Weapon, it doesn’t help with defense or offense. Its only use is to hide auras. Hence, most people consider it worthless. My friend only collected it because he likes collecting strange things.”

“Although I don’t like to make people part with their cherished possessions, I would really like to get this Celestial Weapon for Huan’er... If it’s possible, can you please speak to your friend about selling it to me? He can name a price.” Duan Ling Tian wanted to buy that Celestial Weapon for Huan’er. It was just as Long Fei Yun had said, if people found out about Huan’er, it would definitely attract trouble.

“Brother Duan, to be honest with you, my friend doesn’t lack Celestial Stones. In fact, I can’t promise you that I’ll be able to obtain that Celestial Weapon, but I’ll definitely try my best,” Long Fei Yun said with a bitter smile on his face. When he saw the excitement in Duan Ling Tian’s eyes, he thought it was better to remind Duan Ling Tian that nothing was certain.

“I’ll trouble you then,” Duan Ling Tian replied as he tamped down his excitement.

“It’s no trouble...” Long Fei Yun hastily shook his head.

...

After Duan Ling Tian and Huan’er had settled down in Long Fei Yun’s residence in the Imperial palace, Long Fei Yun and Qiu Ling left them alone.

Although the Thirteenth Prince of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom was not favored by the emperor, his residence was huge. It was several times larger than where Duan Ling Tian and Huan’er had stayed in the Fleeting Time Residence.

“Brother Ling Tian, if that person possesses something that’s beneficial to me... I can just snatch it away from him.” Although Duan Ling Tian had tried to guide Huan’er down the path of righteousness, certain views and habits would take longer for her to change.

Duan Ling Tian shook his head and said, “Huan’er, I told you earlier that it’s wrong to snatch things away from people. Moreover, you have to have the capability of doing so. Since even the thirteenth prince is uncertain if he could make his friend relinquish the Celestial Weapon, it shows that his friend has an extraordinary background. Even if his friend is weaker than you, it’s highly likely that he has someone stronger guarding him.”

Huan’er fell silent and pouted with a sullen expression on her face. She looked slightly pitiful.

Upon seeing this, Duan Ling Tian’s heart softened. “Huan’er, don’t think too much... I’ll try my best to get that Celestial Weapon for you.”

“Mm.” Huan’er nodded in reply. Her eyes gleamed as she asked excitedly, “Brother Ling Tian, when can we go out and play? Since we arrived, Huan’er hasn’t gone out to play... Huan’er wants to buy a lot of things to play with and eat tasty food.”

“In a few days... Meanwhile, you can cultivate here with peace of mind,” Duan Ling Tian said.

“Alright.” Huan’er nodded, albeit reluctantly. She took the Divine Crystal out and began to cultivate.

The room came with a Formation that would prevent Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy from leaking out. The room, which was close to his room at the back of the courtyard, was also far from the main entrance of the courtyard. There were many rooms separating her room from the entrance. For these reasons, Duan Ling Tian was not worried that Qiu Ling would discover the abnormal and seemingly-liquified Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy from Huan’er’s Divine Crystal.

After Duan Ling Tian left the room, he went to the front yard and waited for news from Long Fei Yun.

After nearly an hour had passed, Long Fei Yun finally returned. He looked embarrassed and wore a bitter smile on his face.

Duan Ling Tian felt a wave of disappointment rising in his heart upon seeing this. He could not help but ask, “He’s not willing?”

“It’s not that he’s unwilling, but he wants to meet you, Brother Duan. He said he can give you the Celestial Weapon, but there’s a requirement that he wants to personally discuss with you. Brother Duan, I’m sorry,” Long Fei Yun said apologetically.

“Where is he?” Duan Ling Tian asked as he rose to his feet.

“Are you going to meet him?” Long Fei Yun was stunned. “Brother Duan, that friend of mine is not going to make a trade that’s unfavorable to him... The condition he sets is going to be difficult.”

“Even so, I still want to meet your friend. That Celestial Weapon is very important to me,” Duan Ling Tian said determinedly as his eyes flashed.

“In that case, please follow me, Brother Duan.”

...

Duan Ling Tian and Long Fei Yun left the Imperial palace. Then, Long Fei Yun led him to an estate at the eastern side of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom. The estate occupied a vast piece of land and appeared to be empty. Not a single soul could be seen.

Creak!

As soon Long Fei Yun, Qiu Ling, and Duan Ling Tian arrived, the main door swung open.

Duan Ling Tian was certain there was no one standing near the door. It seemed like the main door was opened by a powerful force from a distance. It was obvious Long Fei Yun’s friends knew they had arrived. Since he could not even detect the other person’s Divine Consciousness, he knew the other person must have a profound cultivation base.

“Let’s go.” Long Yun Fei called out to Duan Ling Tian and took the lead to enter the estate.

Duan Ling Tian followed Long Fei Yun’s lead as he turned to look at Qiu Ling, the heaven-rank Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial. Qiu Ling looked solemn as he entered the estate. A hint of fear could be seen in his eyes as well. ‘It seems like the thirteenth prince’s friend isn’t an ordinary person.’

Duan Ling Tian had expected there to be powerhouses guarding Long Fei Yun’s friend. However, when they arrived at the backyard of the estate, he discovered that Long Fei Yun’s friend was the only person in the estate.

“Brother Pei,” Long Yun Fei greeted his friend before he introduced Duan Ling Tian, “This is Brother Duan whom I mentioned earlier.”

Duan Ling Tian silently studied Long Fei Yun’s friend. The man was dressed in a white robe. His appearance was average, but his eyes revealed he had seen and gone through the vicissitudes of life, indicating he was no longer young. Moreover, when the white-clad man looked at him, he felt completely exposed. This was the first time he had felt this way since he had arrived in the Devata Realm, the Spirit Overarching Heaven of the Devata Realm. Even when he had faced the Celestial Duke from the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect at King Qin’s Mansion in the Cloudy Rock Celestial Kingdom, he did not feel this way.

“I heard from Fei Yun that you want the Concealment Pendant?” the white-clad man asked.

Although it was his first time hearing about it, Duan Ling Tian knew the Concealment Pendant was the Celestial Weapon that Long Fei Yun had told him about. He nodded. “Yes.”

“I can give you the Concealment Pendant, but there’s one thing you have to promise me...” the white-clad man said.

“What is it?” Duan Ling Tian asked anxiously.

“Fei Yun, I’d like to speak to him in private,” the white-clad man said as he raised his hand.

Without waiting for Long Fei Yun to reply, an invisible force surged out of the white-clad man’s hand and formed a soundproof shield around him and Duan Ling Tian.

The white-clad man said without beating around the bush, each of his words sounded like a clap of thunder in Duan Ling Tian’s ears, “You can have the Concealment Pendant in exchange for that woman’s Divine Crystal that’s hidden in her necklace!”
