Chapter 3401: Shiva Ping

Based on the old monk’s Celestial Origin Energy that was boosted with the law of life, it was apparent the old monk was a Celestial Emperor who was fairly powerful. At the very least, Duan Ling Tian could tell the old monk’s Celestial Origin Energy was more powerful than his. Moreover, he could sense fused profundities in the old monk’s energy. Hence, he was certain the old monk was a titled Celestial Emperor.

“Thank you for saving us, sir!” Fang Ji and the others hurriedly thanked the monk and bowed. Relief and happiness were written all over their faces.

At this moment, Li Rou finally pulled away from Duan Ru Feng’s embrace. She frowned slightly when she looked at the old monk who had suddenly appeared.

“Old monk,” Duan Ling Tian said with a hint of frostiness, “Don’t interfere in what you don’t understand.”

“Young man, it’s not good to be vicious,” the old man said as he shook his head.

Duan Ling Tian no longer bothered to waste words with the old monk who appeared out of nowhere. Instead, he said to Elder Huo, “Elder Huo, don’t kill him.”

Elder Huo nodded and attacked immediately. He launched a triple-fused profundity from the law of fire; a sea of flames appeared immediately and swept toward the old monk.

The old monk was defenseless against the sea of flames even with his double-fused profundities from the law of life.

Bang!

With just one move, Elder Huo sent the old monk flying.

The old monk spat out a mouthful of blood; his aura weakened considerably.

With this, Fang Ji and the others felt as though they had returned to hell again. Their expressions had just changed when Duan Ling Tian lifted his hand and instantly killed all of them with his space energy. The horrified expressions were still imprinted on their faces even after their deaths. In that split second before their deaths, they thought it was better if the old monk did not appear and give them false hope. They had thought they were saved; who knew the old monk was so easily defeated by the old man standing behind the purple-clad young man?

After killing the five men, Duan Ling Tian looked at Duan Ru Feng and Li Rou with a smile as he said, “Father, mother, let’s go to the Smudge Crow Sect…”

Li Rou’s eyes brightened upon hearing these words. “Alright!”

Following that, Li Rou left Duan Ru Feng’s arms and moved to Duan Ling Tian’s side. She held his hands and studied him before she said, “Tian’er, you’ve changed a lot… You must have suffered a lot of hardships over the years…”

Tears streamed down Li Rou’s face as she spoke. Although she had no idea what Duan Ling Tian had gone through, for him to become a Celestial Emperor at such a young age, she was certain he did not have an easy time.

Swoosh!

At this moment, Elder Huo reverted to his true form, a Three-legged Golden Crow, to bring the Duan family to the Smudge Crow Sect.

During their journey there, Li Rou sat next to Duan Ling Tian and said, “Tian’er, tell me about your experience over the past few hundred years…”

“Alright.” After being separated from his mother for so long, Duan Ling Tian was overwhelmed with emotions when they were reunited. There were so many things he wanted to tell her. He told his mother about everything that had happened from the moment they were brought to the Divine Offering Land.

Duan Ru Feng listened intently as well. After all, he had not heard about what happened to Duan Ling Tian yet. Previously, when Duan Ling Tian offered to tell him about what happened, he had told Duan Ling Tian to wait until they found Li Rou.

Whenever Duan Ling Tian recounted dangerous situations he encountered, Li Rou felt herself breaking out in cold sweat as she instinctively tightened her grip around Duan Ling Tian’s hand.

…

Meanwhile, after Duan Ling Tian and his family left without even sparing a glance at the old monk, the compassionate expression on the old monk’s face had disappeared and was replaced by viciousness and ruthlessness.

He cursed loudly, “Who are they? They dare to hurt me, Shiva Ping? Damn it!”

He continued to mutter to himself, “They said they’re going to the Smudge Crow Sect? Where’s that? I’m going to look for elder brother and ask him to avenge me. So what if that person has mastered triple-fused profundities? My elder brother is the strongest titled Celestial Emperor under the Tatoo, the Heavenly Emperor of the Purple Revelation Heaven!”

Following that, the old monk made his way to the transportation site in the Scholar Woods City to make his way to the Inked Heavenly Emperor’s palace.

…

Naturally, Duan Ling Tian was unaware of the old monk’s thoughts. He would not have expected that the seemingly compassionate old monk had such a ruthless side to him.

With Elder Huo’s help and Li Rou giving them directions, it did not take long for them to arrive at the Smudge Crow Sect.

As she stood outside of the Smudge Crow Sect’s estate, Li Rou’s eyes burned with flames of fury.

At this moment, Duan Ling Tian suddenly called out, “Huan’er.” He just remembered he had yet to introduce Huan’er to his mother. He felt rather nervous about his mother getting angry at him for finding another companion while Ke’er was still being held captive in the Divine Offering Land. He thought he could ease the situation if he let Huan’er help his mother in dealing with the Smudge Crow Sect and help the Elegant Sect.

“Brother Ling Tian.” Huan’er who was in closed-door cultivation quickly came back to her senses as soon as she heard Duan Ling Tian’s voice. “What happened?”

“Huan’er, I’ve found my parents. You should come and meet them. You should help my mother out with some matters as well to build a good relationship with her…” Duan Ling Tian said, feeling slightly embarrassed.

“Your parents?” Huan’er was clearly nervous as well when she heard she was about to meet Duan Ling Tian’s parents. Nevertheless, she obediently left his Little World.

Swoosh!

Duan Ru Feng and Li Rou were naturally startled by the sudden appearance of another person. When they finally had a good look at Huan’er, they were stunned by her peerless beauty.

“You are Huan’er, aren’t you? Tian’er’s father had mentioned you to me. It seems like you’re a good girl,” Li Rou said with a smile. She seemed satisfied with Huan’er.

Li Rou’s reaction was much better than Duan Ling Tian had expected.

Meanwhile, Huan’er blushed when she heard Li Rou’s words. She greeted Duan Ling Tian’s parents shyly, “Uncle, aunty…”

In fact, Huan’er only found the courage to greet Duan Ru Feng and Li Rou because of Duan Ling Tian’s encouragement through Voice Transmission. She felt slightly awkward, but due to Li Rou’s warm personality, it did not take long before Huan’er got along with Li Rou.

Upon seeing this, Duan Ling Tian sighed in relief. At the same time, he saw his father discreetly giving him a thumbs-up. He was not sure if his father was praising him for finding such a peerless beauty or praising his ability to deal with the situation. Now that he had calmed down, he said, “Mother, although Huan’er is younger than Si Ling, she’s already a Celestial Emperor. In fact, her cultivation base is higher than mine. She can help you to deal with the Smudge Crow Sect…”

Then, he continued to say, “We’ll wait outside to ensure no one from the Smudge Crow Sect gets away…”

Li Rou said in feigned anger, “You haven’t married Huan’er yet, but you’re already ordering her around. How are you going to treat her once she marries you?”

Li Rou was naturally aware of her son’s intention. She knew he wanted Huan’er to build a good relationship with her. Hence, she held Huan’er’s hand and asked with a smile, “Huan’er, will you help me?”

“Of course, aunty. It’s my duty to help you…” Huan’er replied. She no longer felt awkward around Li Rou.

At this moment, Duan Ling Tian said through Voice Transmission, “Huan’er, please do as my mother says; there’s no need to show mercy. Nine out of ten members of the Smudge Crow Sect are disgusting human beings.”

After listening to the treatment of the Elegant Sect by the Smudge Crow Sect, Duan Ling Tian knew that the Smudge Crow Sect was not a righteous sect. In his opinion, it was not a pity to annihilate the sect. However, he knew he could not directly annihilate the Smudge Crow Sect. After all, there were still a number of members from the Elegant Sect who were held captive in the Smudge Crow Sect. The annihilation of the Smudge Crow Sect would have to wait until the members of the Elegant Sect were rescued. He was sure this was what his mother wanted as well.

After Huan’er left with Li Rou, Duan Ling Tian, Duan Ru Feng, and Elder Huo stood guard outside of the Smudge Crow Sect’s estate.

Duan Ling Tian extended his Divine Consciousness following that. After becoming a Celestial Emperor, this was the first time he had covered so much ground with his Divine Consciousness.

…

Huan’er and Li Rou caused a commotion as soon as they entered the Smudge Crow Sect’s estate.

After two days and two nights, the two women were still not done dealing with the people in the Smudge Crow Sect. Despite Li Rou’s hatred, the way she dealt with things was still rather lenient.

…

Duan Ling Tian did not find it strange that Li Rou and Huan’er were taking such a long time; this was within his expectations.

During this time, he was not idle. Those who tried to escape from the Smudge Crow Sect’s estate were instantly killed by his space energy.

…

On the third day.

“Hmm?” Elder Huo suddenly looked up into the distance.

Duan Ling Tian and Duan Ru Feng’s noticed Elder Huo’s sudden movement and followed the direction of his gaze.

As soon as they looked up, they saw two figures flying toward them from the distant sky.

Duan Ling Tian was not familiar with the person flying in the lead, but he recognized the person flying at the back. It was none other than the old monk who tried to save the lives of Fang Ji and the others but was taught a lesson by Elder Huo instead.
