Chapter 1659: The News Has Spread
Right now, it would never have crossed Duan Ling Tian’s mind that the lies that he told Han Zheng Tian, saying that he had a friend whom he suspected coming from a quasi-third-rated force, was actually not quite fiction at all.
This was because the Azure Cloud Mansion that his father ruled was one of the quasi-third-rated forces in the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land. The Azure Cloud Mansion was even more powerful than the Rising Sky Mansion. The two of them were on completely different levels.
Of course, it was also because Duan Ling Tian had not known that his father was the leader of a quasi-third-rated force yet.
Otherwise, he only needed to tell his father. It would only be a matter of a string of words from his father to call the marriage between Han Xue Nai and the Young Mansion Master of the Rising Sky Mansion off.After Duan Ling Tian had left the Greenwave Han Mansion district, a piece of shocking news reached the Greenwave Han Mansion from the Southern Ridge Yuan Mansion and took everybody in the district by surprise.
The Devilseal Tablet, one of the Super Saint Weapons on the Ten Great Saint Weapon Rankings, had actually manifested in this world!
Apart from that, it was in the hands of an Imminent Saint Stage Martial Cultivator called Duan Ling Tian.
At once, Duan Ling Tian’s name swept the entire Greenwave Han Mansion together with the Devilseal Tablet, making everyone in the district familiar with it.
“The legendary Devilseal Tablet has actually appeared?”
“That’s right! It’s said to have appeared in the Southern Ridge Yuan Mansion, in the hands of an Imminent Saint Stage Dao Cultivator. With the help of this Devilseal Tablet, he can even kill a Pristine Saint Stage Devil Cultivator instantly!”
“An Imminent Saint Stage killing a Pristine Saint Stage Devil Cultivator instantly? Looks like this rumor is not groundless. That Devilseal Tablet does indeed possess shocking restraining strength against a Devil Cultivator.”“If I could get my hands on the Devilseal Tablet, even a Refined Saint Stage Devil Cultivator would be no match for me!”
“Hmph! How can a mere Imminent Saint Stage fellow get the Devilseal Tablet!? If I know where he is, I’ll instantly rush over and kill him so that I can snatch that Devilseal Tablet away!”
“Dream on! It’s not even your turn to kill him!”
…
Similar remarks had been raging on in the Greenwave Han Mansion district. Anyone who knew about the meaning of the Devilseal Tablet itched to get their hands on it.
Some of them knew their own limitations and merely watched on in amusement.
Others, on the other hand, overestimated themselves and kept clamoring about how they wanted to search for Duan Ling Tian and snatch the Devilseal Tablet from him.
At the same time, most people started to pay attention to the Imminent Saint Stage Martial Cultivator who was called Duan Ling Tian.
As each of the news slowly spread out from the Southern Ridge Yuan Mansion, the Greenwave Han Mansion was stormed by commotion again.
Duan Ling Tian was a young genius Martial Cultivator who was not even 40 years old yet. With his Imminent Saint Stage cultivation base, he managed to kill the strongest person in the Southern Ridge Yuan Mansion’s Heaven Rankings who had already made a breakthrough to the Saint Stage. Later, with the mysterious means of the Devilseal Tablet, he deceived everybody and successfully fled the scene.
“What? Duan Ling Tian isn’t even 40 years old yet?”
“He isn’t even 40 years old yet and he’s already obtained the Devilseal Tablet. And his own strength is actually this mighty! To think that he could actually kill a Saint Stage powerhouse with the cultivation base of an Imminent Saint Stage!”
“Even though the strongest person on the Southern Ridge Yuan Mansion’s Heaven Rankings just made a breakthrough to the Saint Stage, he still reached the Saint Stage. A Saint Stage and a non-Saint Stage are worlds apart! This is the ultimate rule in the Dao Martial Saint Land! Still, he could kill a Saint Stage powerhouse with his Imminent Saint Stage cultivation base! And it was an instant kill on top of that!”
“Impossible!”
“I think that he must’ve used some very high-grade Dao Talisman. That Dao Talisman could’ve corresponded with his True Energy and formed a sword technique that killed Lin Dong.”
“That’s a possibility too. However, he’s from the mere sixth-rated Saint Nation from the Southern Ridge Yuan Mansion, so how could he have gotten such a high-grade Dao Talisman?”
“Hmph! Don’t forget that he even has the Devilseal Tablet with him! The Devilseal Tablet is an item that even powerhouses who have exceeded the Eminent Saint Stage yearn for!”
…
As time continued to go by, some of the matters regarding Duan Ling Tian that had taken place in the Southern Ridge Yuan Mansion of the Windfall Nation had also been dug out.
At once, Duan Ling Tian’s fame spread out everywhere at an alarming speed.
In the Greenwave Han Mansion estate, Han Zheng Tian, who had found out about the bustling news outside, could not help but be washed by a sense of bafflement even though he was already mentally prepared.
Despite already believing Duan Ling Tian before this, hearing this news from the outside world gave him a completely different sense of feeling.
“Perhaps he can really help our Greenwave Han Mansion go through this difficult time,” Han Zheng Tian muttered to himself.
Now that Han Zheng Tian had heard about the bustling news outside, it was natural for Han Xue Nai to pick it up too. After she did, she became very moody.
It had been quite some time since Duan Ling Tian left. Because of his departure, she had been in a bad mood but recently, her spirits had lifted a little. Now that she heard about his news again, she could not help but think of her Brother Ling Tian again involuntarily.
“Brother Ling Tian, you must come back to visit me before I get married. Otherwise, I might not stand a chance to see you anymore,” Han Xue Nai muttered to herself with tears in her eyes.
She had long heard about the infamy of the Young Mansion Master of the Rising Sky Mansion before and knew that he was a complete dandy, good-for-nothing, rich kid. Other than enjoying his promiscuous lifestyle, he had an extremely strong possessive desire. Usually, he would use house arrest to prevent his wives from leaving his mansion, let alone leave the Rising Sky Mansion’s estate.
Therefore, once she was married, leaving might not be possible for her anymore.
If she could not leave, then it would no doubt mean that she would not be able to see her Brother Ling Tian anymore.
Right now, Han Xue Nai did not know that her Brother Ling Tian had already entered the district surrounding the Rising Sky Mansion and was soon entering the vicinity.
As a fourth-rated force in the Dao Martial Saint Land, the strength of the Rising Sky Mansion was merely inferior to those few quasi-third-rated forces.
Even though such a force did not deliberately expand its territory, the fifth-rated forces in the large district around it would automatically present a huge amount of Saint Stones every decade to please it.
Consequently, with Rising Sky Mansion as the center, the surrounding expanse, including the vast land where three fifth-rated forces were situated, was known as the Rising Sky Mansion district.
Of course, the Greenwave Han Mansion did not fall under the Rising Sky Mansion district. Instead, it was in the district of another fourth-rated force.
However, even though the Greenwave Han Mansion would present Saint Stones to the fourth-rated forces every decade as well, the latter would not give a damn about whether the Greenwave Han Mansion survived or perished. It simply would not touch the Greenwave Han Mansion.
As for whether the Greenwave Han Mansion would be annihilated or not, it did not give a damn at all.
If the Greenwave Han Mansion fell, another Greenwave Han Mansion would automatically rise. In this realistic world, the strong ruled ruthlessly.
Casting a glance at the mountain range in front, Duan Ling Tian who was flying in the sky with the flying sword underneath his feet muttered to himself, “The Rising Sky Mansion district is in front.”
After the mountain range would be the Rising Sky Mansion district.
The Rising Sky Mansion district was adjacent to the district of the fourth-rated force that the Greenwave Han Mansion was in. However, the district that Duan Ling Tian was in currently did not belong to the Greenwave Han Mansion but to another fifth-rate force instead which belonged to the district of the same fourth-rated force as the Greenwave Han Mansion
