War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

Chapter 2930: Supporting Fall Nation

Duan Ling Tian did not ask Huan’er’s Soul Pearl since it did not cross his mind that she would leave him. His eyes were red as he said in a low voice, “Take me and make a round trip around this area, we’ll search for her as we go...”

“Yes, master.” Liu Guang Lin immediately averted his eyes away from Duan Ling Tian. He could tell Duan Ling Tian was anxious. Based on this, it was clear Huan’er was important to Duan Ling Tian. He looked remorseful as he apologized to Duan Ling Tian. “Master, I’m so sorry about...”

“It’s in the past, there’s no need to apologize. After all, you were left with no choice at all... I know Huan’er can be rather stubborn.” Although Duan Ling Tian was worried about Huan’er’s safety, he remained calm and did not wrongly blame Liu Guang Lin.

Upon hearing Duan Ling Tian’s words, Liu Guang Lin was moved, but he felt even guiltier.

‘Huan’er, please be safe... How am I going to explain myself to Senior Du Fei if something happens to you?’ Duan Ling Tian clearly remembered the words of Huan’er’s grandaunt, Du Fei, when she gave him the King Grade Cultivation Method, the Taiyi Profound Method, in the Little World that she created. She had requested Duan Ling Tian to prevent Huan’er from coming in contact with members of the Phantom Fox tribe. If any members of the tribe that was not from the Du clan knew about her existence, he must kill them! He was so worried that he could not even cultivate.

...

In just a blink of an eye, three years had passed.

“Master, over the past three years, we’ve covered about 500,000km of the area in the direction where Miss Huan’er had left. We even searched a vast area of the central area. Alas, we still fail to find Miss Huan’er. After three years, it’s going to be even more difficult to look for her.” All this time, Liu Guang Lin had diligently searched for Huan’er with no complaints at all. However, after three years had passed and there was still no sign of Huan’er, he knew it was futile to keep searching. Therefore, he had mustered up all his courage to speak to Duan Ling Tian. Naturally, he also knew Duan Ling Tian was a reasonable man. Otherwise, he would not dare to speak up even if he was given the courage of a lion.

Despair was evident on Duan Ling Tian’s face as he nodded. He knew Liu Guang Lin’s words were reasonable, but he was unresigned. Although Huan’er was capable of defending herself and people weaker than Celestial Dukes were rarely a threat to her, the central area was a completely different place. How could he not worry about her safety? However, he had to face the reality. Three years had gone by, if they were to find her, they would have found her by now.

‘Huan’er, please be safe... I won’t be able to forgive myself for the rest of my life if something happens to you,’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself. After living two lifetimes, he rarely regretted his actions. However, he deeply regretted introducing Huan’er as his sister to Liu Guang Lin. Even if that was not the main reason Huan’er left, it definitely was the trigger!

“Let’s find a place to stay and find out about our surroundings before we plan ahead.”

The duo was lingering in an area near the borderlands at this moment.

After listening to Duan Ling Tian’s words, Liu Guang Lin took Duan Ling Tian and entered the central area.

...

Half a month later, there were still no signs of civilization. They had left the desert and began to enter an oasis.

‘It won’t take long before we come across human settlements,’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself as they entered the oasis.

Indeed. A few days later, a few figures appeared before them. When they approached one of the figures, the man was taken aback and wary. He thought Duan Ling Tian and Liu Guang Lin were trying to rob him.

“Sorry to disturb you. We just wanted to ask where is this place?” Liu Guang Lin said to an old man who was a peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial.

Upon hearing Liu Gua Lin’s words, the old man heaved a sigh of relief. He could tell Liu Guang Lin was a Celestial Duke. If Liu Guang Lin intended to kill him, he knew he would be helpless to do anything. He asked, “Are you from the borderlands?”

“Yes.” Liu Guang Lin slightly nodded. It was his first time in the central area.

“Since both of you came from the borderlands, you must have reached this oasis not long ago... The oasis is an indication that you’ve entered the Supporting Fall Nation,” the old man said.

‘The Supporting Fall Nation?’ Duan Ling Tian raised an eyebrow. He did not think there were nations here, similar to the kingdoms in the borderlands. In the borderland, there were many Celestial Kingdoms. However, the Celestial Kingdoms were no match for the top sects in the borderlands. In fact, they were subordinates of the top sects.

“The Supporting Fall Nation?” Liu Guang Lin was also curious. After speaking to the old man, he discovered the differences between the kingdoms and nations in the borderlands and the central area.

In the central area, nations were mostly located near the borders in the central area. The nations were ruled by Celestial Kings.

“A Celestial King can establish a nation... Does this mean that any Celestial King from the borderlands is free to establish a nation here?” Duan Ling Tian asked.

“Theoretically, yes.” The old man nodded. “However, there are very few people who want to establish a nation due to the tremendous energy and effort they have to put in. Most would rather conquer a well-established nation by killing the ruling emperor. The emperors of the nations in the borders of the central area are mainly powerful Celestial Kings. Normally, the Celestial Kings from the borderlands are incapable of defeating the nations’ emperors... However, they’re also unwilling to yield to the emperors. Therefore, most of the Celestial Kings from the borderlands will eventually join powerful sects or clans in the central area. The powerful sects and clans are located further away from the borders of the central area where the resources are much better than the nations in the borders.”

Duan Ling Tian shuddered inwardly. The nations near the borders were the weakest factions in the central area. Even then, the strongest powerhouses in the nations were all extraordinary Celestial Kings.

Duan Ling Tian and Liu Guang Lin continued their journey after speaking to the old man. “Our first stop will be the capital of the Supporting Fall Nation.”

Liu Guang Lin headed toward the direction of the Supporting Fall Nation after receiving directions from the old man.

During their journey, Duan Ling Tian, who was still worried about Huan’er, mulled over the information they obtained from the old man.

Liu Guang Lin who could sense Duan Ling Tian’s worries reassured him. “Master, don’t worry... Miss Huan’er will be fine.”

Duan Ling Tian nodded slightly in response.

...

Three months later.

“Master, according to the old man, we should arrive in the Supporting Fall Nation after we cross the mountains before us.”

Duan Ling Tian who was sitting in a cross-legged position in the air opened his eyes after hearing Liu Guang Lin’s words. A seemingly-endless mountain range that looked like a dragon crawling on the ground appeared before his eyes.

Swoosh!

All of a sudden, the sound of wind howling resonated in the air.

An old figure and a young figure flew out of the mountains and appeared before the duo, blocking their path.

Liu Guang Lin’s expression turned grave. Based on the old man’s speed, it was clear the old man was stronger than him!

‘A Three Talents Celestial Duke!’ Duan Ling Tian could sense the old man was a Three Talents Celestial Duke like him.

The young man was dressed in an embroidered robe. He had an obvious birthmark on his face. His expression remained unchanged as his eyes swept past Liu Guang Lin. However, he was filled with hatred and jealousy when he saw Duan Ling Tian. “Either you ruin your face or die!”

Duan Ling Tian and Liu Guang Lin ignored the two newcomers and continued on their journey.

Alas, the old man and young man appeared in front of them again, blocking their path.

The young man’s hideous face twisted with envy as he looked at Duan Ling Tian as though Duan Ling Tian had murdered his father!
