Chapter 2780: Chief Celestial Alchemist?

Under everyone’s watchful eyes, a tall and sturdy figure appeared. His speed seemed slow, but he had appeared in front of everyone in just a blink of an eye. His movements seemed to contain the profundity of heaven and earth. He had a square face that was filled with stubbles, and an eye-catching red mole could be seen between his brows.

Before the others regained their senses, Huang Chao stepped forward and respectfully greeted the middle-aged man, “Huang Chao greets Lord Left Guardian!” A hint of confusion could be seen in his eyes at this moment. As far as he knew, Tie Tai He, the Left Guardian of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect usually stayed away from women. Why was he here then? All of sudden, his eyes widened as he recalled something. ‘Wait… Guardian Tie greeted the purple-clad young man earlier… Moreover, his tone was rather polite. Is it possible that the purple-clad young man, a prominent Celestial Alchemist, is acquainted with Guardian Tie?’ As he thought to himself, his eyes darted between Duan Ling Tian and Tie Tai He.

It only made sense that the Left Guardian of Tai Yi Celestial Sect would be courteous to a prominent Celestial Alchemist. Moreover, as far as Huang Chao knew, the only prominent Celestial Alchemist here was the purple-clad young man. Therefore, the Master Duan whom the Left Guardian of Tai Yi Celestial Sect had mentioned was probably the purple-clad young man!

Regret welled up in Huang Chao’s heart. ‘If I knew Guardian Tie was acquainted with this young man, I wouldn’t have come no matter how much I want this woman. No, in fact, if I knew this young man is a prominent Celestial Alchemist, I wouldn’t have come at all. I have to calm down… Perhaps, Guardian Tie won’t punish me. After all, it’s not 100% certain that he’s acquainted with the young man.’

As an elder in Tai Yi Celestial Sect, Huang Chao, naturally, knew about Tie Tai He’s explosive temper. At this point, he could only fervently pray that the purple-clad young man was not acquainted with Tie Tai He. Otherwise, things definitely would not end well for him!

“Greetings, Guardian Tie!”

“Greetings, Guardian Tie!”

Following that, the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect’s elder, Teng Qing, and the Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect’s elder, Xue Lang, regained their senses and respectfully greeted Tie Tai He.

At the same time, the onlookers regained their senses as well. Their attention was focused on Tie Tai He. They began to discuss the identity of the newcomer.

“Tai Yi Celestial Sect’s Elder Huang Chao addressed him as Guardian Tie?”

“Even the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect’s Elder Teng Qing and the Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect’s Elder Xue Lang addressed him as Guardian Tie… He… he must be Tie Tai He, the Left Guardian of Tai Yi Celestial Sect, right?!”

“The Left Guardian of Tai Yi Celestial Sect? Isn’t he the one who recently became a Seven Stars Celestial Duke?!”

“A Seven Stars Celestial Duke!”

As the onlookers continued their discussion, they recalled the rumor about the Left Guardian of Tai Yi Celestial Sect’s recent breakthrough and becoming a Seven Stars Celestial Duke stage that was spreading like wildfire. An uproar broke out immediately.

Seven Stars Celestial Duke! Even the Sect Leaders of the Three Major Celestial Sects of the Wasteland were also Seven Stars Celestial Dukes. Seven Stars Celestial Dukes were the strongest beings in the Wasteland!

Meanwhile, Tie Tai He ignored Huang Chao, Teng Qing, and Xue Lang as he looked at Duan Ling Tian who was standing nearby.

“Master Duan… It seems that you’ve met with some problems?” Tie Tai He asked with a faint smile. His tone is still extremely polite as always.

“Guardian Tie.” Duan Ling Tian lifted his hand and withdrew the grey flame in his hand. He said in a casual manner, “You should know very well if I’ve met with trouble or not… If I’m not mistaken, you’ve been here since a while ago, right?” He looked at Tie Tai He with gleaming eyes as he spoke.

Tie Tai He who had been seen through by Duan Ling Tian only smiled sheepishly.

When Duan Ling Tian withdrew the grey flame, a hint of killing intent flashed in the eyes of Teng Qing, an elder of the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect. However, based on Duan Ling Tian’s interaction with Tie Tai He, he suppressed his killing intent. He could tell the relationship between Duan Ling Tian and Tie Tai He was not simple. Although Duan Ling Tian was a prominent Celestial Alchemist, Tie Tai He seemed to treat Duan Ling Tian more politely than he did other prominent Celestial Alchemists. He had seen Tie Tai He interacted with other prominent Celestial Alchemists previously. At that time, Tie Tai He was still a Six Combination Celestial Duke. He was, naturally, unaware that Tie Tai He treated Duan Ling Tian differently from other prominent Celestial Alchemists not because they had a particularly good relationship. It was because Duan Ling Tian was a prominent Celestial Alchemist who could refine Overarching Heaven Pills. This put Duan Ling Tian above ordinary prominent Celestial Alchemists.

“What’s happening?”

“What?”

“The Left Guardian of Tai Yi Celestial Sect seems to have a good relationship with Duan Ling Tian…”

“Even a prominent Celestial Alchemist wouldn’t be treated in such a manner by a Seven Stars Celestial Duke, right? There must be more to it.”

The people from the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom were confused and in disbelief. They did not expect the purple-clad young man by the thirteenth prince’s side to be acquainted with the Left Guardian of Tai Yi Celestial Sect.

‘Didn’t he say that he intends to join the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect? If he’s close to the Tai Yi Celestial Sect’s Left Guardian, isn’t it better for him to join Tai Yi Celestial Sect?’ Long Dong Ping, the Emperor of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom, was confused as well when he recalled what Duan Ling Tian had said previously.

“Brother Duan…”

“Duan Ling Tian…”

Long Fei Yun and Qin Yu were baffled as well. How did Duan Ling Tian meet Tie Tai He, the Left Guardian of Tai Yi Celestial Sect who was a Seven Stars Celestial Duke?

“Guardian Tie, I don’t like to beat around the bush…” Duan Ling Tian, who was the object of everyone’s attention, looked at Tie Tai He and said indifferently, “You should know that I plan to join the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect.” Then, he glanced at Teng Qing, the elder of the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect.

Colors drained from Teng Qing’s face immediately. If Duan Ling Tian was telling the truth, and the matter today was found out by the Sect Leader and high-ranking officials of the Martial Dragon Celestial, he would definitely get into trouble. After all, he might have caused the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect to lose a prominent Celestial Alchemist over a woman!

“Of course.” Tie Tai He nodded in response to Duan Ling Tian’s question.

Duan Ling Tian cocked an eyebrow and asked, “Guardian Tie, do you want me to join the Tai Yi Celestial Sect?”

As soon as Duan Ling Tian finished speaking, Tie Tai He’s eyes brightened immediately. He was visibly excited as he asked, “Master Duan… You… You’re willing to join the Tai Yi Celestial Sect?”

As Duan Ling Tian had guessed, Tie Tai He had arrived and stayed hidden a while ago. He had heard Duan Ling Tian expressing his disappointment with the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect and Teng Qing. He had also heard Duan Ling Tian telling Long Fei Yun that he was not going to join the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect. After hearing all those things, his mind went into overdrive. Based on Duan Ling Tian’s words, it seemed like he was considering joining the Tai Yi Celestial Sect. How could he not feel delighted? He said excitedly, “Master Duan, we will not mistreat you if you join the Tai Yi Celestial Sect… At that time, we will appoint you as the Tai Yi Celestial Sect’s Chief Celestial Alchemist and do all we can to satisfy all your needs!” Based on his words, it could be seen that he was eager for Duan Ling Tian to join the Tai Yi Celestial Sect no matter the cost.

The entire place fell silent as soon as Tie Tai He finished speaking

Chief Celestial Alchemist?

It should be noted that Tai Yi Celestial Sect had several prominent Celestial Alchemists, but their statuses in the Tai Yi Celestial Sect were equal since none of them were more skilled than the other. Therefore, there was no Chief Celestial Alchemist in the Tai Yi Celestial Sect.

However, Tie Tai He just promised to make Duan Ling Tian the Chief Celestial Alchemist if he joined the Tai Yi Celestial Sect. This meant that the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, or Tie Tai He at least, acknowledged that Duan Ling Tian’s refining skills were superior to the existing prominent Celestial Alchemists in the Tai Yi Celestial Sect. It was a huge honor since they might risk angering the other prominent Celestial Alchemists, causing them to leave. Based on this, one could tell how superior Duan Ling Tian was compared to other prominent Celestial Alchemists!
