Chapter 2040: The Reincarnation Of A Goddess?

Now that Duan Ling Tian had made up his mind, how he wished to fly away from the Fire Worship Sect to improve his Innate Spiritual Root! As long as he managed to change his Innate Spiritual Root to a violet one, he would be able to return gloriously and shock the Fire Worship Sect and the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land! He would be considered as a rare prodigy with a violet Innate Spiritual Root in the Upper Province.

At that time, if he announced he would annihilate the Fire Worship Sect if they dared to harm Ke’er and their daughter, he believed the Fire Worship Sect would not dare to touch them in fear of his potential.

“Thank you for your advice.” Duan Ling Tian expressed his gratitude to Gan Ru Yan after he regained his senses. The last of his hatred toward her disappear as well. After all, the woman standing before him was Ke’er’s biological sister and her family. If he insisted on holding onto his hatred, the only one who would be hurt was Ke’er.

For this reason, Duan Ling Tian decided to let go of his hatred toward Gan Ru Yan. After all, it was true she never had the intention of hurting Ke’er. He was certain of this now.

“You don’t have to thank me,” Gan Ru Yan said as she shook her head, “Both of us have the same intention. We all wish that Yu Yan and her daughter would be safe. Yu Yan is my twin sister and my only sister. I’m willing to sacrifice my life if it means Yu Yan will be safe!” Gan Ru Yan’s tone left no room for doubts.

Duan Ling Tian nodded. Based on Gan Ru Yan’s tone, he could tell her words were sincere.

After a moment of silence, Duan Ling Tian looked at Gan Ru Yan and said, “There’s one thing I’ve always been curious about. Between you and Ke’er, why did the Fire Worship Sect choose Ke’er as the Saint Girl? Why didn’t they choose you? Could the rumors be true? Does Ke’er have a violet Innate Spiritual Root?” Duan Ling Tian asked one of the questions that he had always been curious about.

“It’s true. Yu Yan possesses a violet Innate Spiritual Root. However, this is not the main reason she was chosen by the Fire Worship Sect to be a Saint Girl!” Gan Ru Yan answered Duan Ling Tian’s question solemnly.

“It’s not the main reason?” Duan Ling Tian was stunned. When he saw Gan Ru Yan’s solemn expression, his expression turned solemn as well. “What’s the main reason then?”

“I only heard about it coincidentally from my Master. It seems like Yu Yan is the reincarnation of a goddess!” Gan Ru Yan’s expression turned even more solemn when she said this.

The reincarnation of a goddess?!

Duan Ling Tian was shocked when he heard this. If he had heard this previously, he might have found it absurd. However, he was also someone who had been reincarnated. It was just that in his previous life, he was a Weapons Specialist from Earth. He was not some god. For this reason, when he heard Gan Ru Yan’s words, he did not think it was impossible. He was just shocked.

“Ke’er? The reincarnation of a goddess? This…” Duan Ling Tian did not know what else to say at this moment. He looked at Gan Ru Yan again and asked, “Are you sure you heard correctly? Your master, the Fire Worship Sect’s Guardian, said that Ke’er is the reincarnation of a goddess?”

“That’s what master said… I’m afraid only the Sect Leader knows the details of this matter,” Gan Ru Yan responded.

“It doesn’t matter if Ke’er is the reincarnation of a goddess or not. She’s my woman!” Duan Ling Tian said resolutely as his eyes flashed, “I’ll protect my woman! If the Fire Worship Sect dares to harm her, I’ll definitely annihilate the Fire Worship Sect in the future. They would become nothing but history in the Dao Martial Saint Land!”

After that, he turned to look at Gan Ru Yan and said, “I only have 15 minutes with you. The time is almost up. If the Enforcement Hall’s Elder asks you why I wanted to see you, you’ll need to come up with a story to deal with him.”

“I don’t have to deal with him!” Gan Ru Yan was not concerned when she heard Duan Ling Tian’s words.

Who was she? Apart from being a true disciple who was ranked 7th on the True Ranking, one of the sect’s Seven Great Prodigies, and the most outstanding female disciple among the younger generation in the Fire Worship Sect, she was the direct disciple of Qing Huo, one of the Guardians in the Fire Worship Sect!

Just a mere Silver Flame Elder guarding the Prison Hall was not qualified to ask for an explanation from her.

Upon hearing Gan Ru Yan’s arrogant words, Duan Ling Tian was momentarily stunned. When he regained his senses, he smiled wryly. “I’ve forgotten that your master is Guardian Qing Huo, one of the three great Guardians in the Fire Worship Sect… You take care. It’s time for me to leave.” He turned to leave after he finished speaking.

Bang! Bang!

After knocking the stone door twice, the Prison Hall’s Silver Flame Elder Meng Qi who was on guard outside opened the door. After Duan Ling Tian left, he shut the stone door again and reactivated the Formation on the prison stone room.

“Let’s go!” After Meng Qi was done, he gestured to Duan Ling Tian to leave and brought him out of the Prison Hall.

After leaving the Prison Hall, Duan Ling Tian was reunited with Liu Yu who was waiting outside.

After bidding farewell to the three Prison Hall’s Silver Flame Elders, including Meng Qi, Liu Yu brought Duan Ling Tian away from the Prison Hall and made his way to the Main Hall.

“Thank you, Elder Liu Yu.” Duan Ling Tian did not forget to thank Liu Yu during their journey to the Main Hall.

“You should thank Little Yun’er. I hope you won’t forget the promise you made!” Liu Yu replied solemnly.

“Don’t worry, Elder Liu Yu. I always keep my words!” Duan Ling Tian said sincerely.

Naturally, Duan Ling Tian remembered the promise he made to Liu Yu. He had promised to sever his friendship with Liu Yun publicly so that he would not implicate Liu Yun or the Liu Clan because of his own matter. Since he had given Liu Yu his words, he had no intention of backing out. Moreover, this was a way for him to guarantee Liu Yun’s safety. If something happened to Liu Yun or the Liu Clan, he would not be able to forgive himself. To play it safe, he had decided to have a public fallout with Liu Yun and sever their friendship.

As long as news of their fallout spread in the Fire Worship Sect, those who opposed Duan Ling Ling Tian would not target Liu Yun anymore,

…

In the Prison Hall.

After Duan Ling Tian left, Meng Qi entered the Prison Hall again. Not only that, but he opened the stone door that imprisoned Gan Ru Yan and entered the room. As soon as he entered the room, he smiled widely as he asked, “Miss Ru Yan, I wonder if you’re comfortable during your stay here?”

“Comfortable?” Upon hearing Meng Qi’s words, Gan Ru Yan smiled coldly. “How about we switch places, and you tell me whether it’s comfortable or not?”

When Meng Qi heard her words, he could only smile awkwardly.

“Miss Ru Yan!” As though Meng Qi was reminded of something, he asked solemnly, “Pardon me for asking, what’s your relationship with Duan Ling Tian? To think he used his connections to enter the Prison Hall just to see you. More importantly, he’s just a new disciple of the sect. He only entered the sect after you’re imprisoned!” He did not beat around the bush and directly asked about Gan Ru Yan’s relationship with Duan Ling Tian.

Meng Qi had a feeling both of them knew each other. Otherwise, Duan Ling Tian would not have used his connections just to see Gan Ru Yan.

“What does it have to do with you what relationship I have with him?” Gan Ru Yan smirked when she heard Meng Qi’s question. She did not intend to give him a proper answer.

A hint of dissatisfaction flashed in the depths of Meng Qi’s eyes when he saw how rude Gan Ru Yan was. However, he forced a smile and said, “Miss Ru Yan, it’s just a casual question. I have no other intention. In my opinion, he must be your friend. No wonder he humiliated Wen Yan previously. As it turns out, it’s because Wen Yan had reported you. Everyone’s wondering why a new disciple would humiliate Wen Yan for no reason.” Meng Qi sighed emotionally when he finished speaking.

When Duan Ling Tian mentioned that he wanted to see Gan Ru Yan, whether it was Meng Qi or the other two Silver Flame Elders, they were all reminded of the incident where Duan Ling Tian had ruthlessly humiliated Wen Yan.

Previously, they thought Duan Ling Tian had humiliated Wen Yan for no reason. However, now, all of them felt Duan Ling Tian must have done so because he was close to Gan Ru Yan. Otherwise, he would not have used his connection to see her in the Prison Hall.

“Although the wages the Enforcement Hall gives to true disciples serving here are high, it’s nothing to a true disciple like him who possesses a million Contribution Points!” Meng Qi continued to say, “Now that I think about it, he must have decided to serve here because he wants to see you!”

“A million Contribution Points?” Gan Ru Yan was stunned when she heard Meng Qi’s words. “What a million Contribution Points? Did you just say he has a million Contribution Points?”

Duan Ling Tian had a million Contribution Points? Even Gan Ru Yan had only managed to save over 200,000 Contribution Points after being in the Fire Worship Sect for so long.

Duan Ling Tian had only entered the Fire Worship Sect not too long ago but he already possessed a million Contribution Points?
