War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

Chapter 2211 Elder Huo’s Trick?

A figure appeared before Duan Ling Tian and the others suddenly. It was none other than Tang Xuan, the Sect Leader of Fire Worship Sect!

“Sect Leader!” Duan Ling Tian was surprised at TangXuan’s unannounced arrival.

How could this be!?

The Sect Leader of Fire Worship Sect was supposed to be fighting with the Supreme Elder of Black Kshetra Sect! Why did he return so soon?

Gan Ru Yan’s expression changed when she saw Tang Xuan.

As for Ke’er, the expression on her pretty face changed as well. She held onto Duan Ling Tian tightly as though the act itself would grant her the courage she needed.

The little girl that Gan Ru Yan was holding, Duan Si Ling, Duan Ling Tian and Ke’er’s daughter, lay motionlessly in Gan Ru Yan’s arms.

Duan Si Ling was sleeping so soundly because Gan Ru Yan had fed her a harmless pill that would make her fall into a deep sleep. She had done so because she did not want Duan Si Ling to worry about her mother and her father.

“Guardian Ling Tian, I didn’t think it would really be you!” Tang Xuan looked at Duan Ling Tian sombrely. His eyes were cold and furious. Although he had noticed that Duan Ling Tian and the Saint Girl’s daughter’s brows shared some resemblance, he had only suspected that Duan Ling Tian was the Saint Girl’s man from the Lower Province. He had no evidence to support his suspicion. All this time, he had been trying to find ways to test Duan Ling Tian so he could confirm his suspicion. He had intentionally announced that the Saint Girl and her daughter would be executed in three months’ time. In his opinion, if Duan Ling Tian was really the Saint Girl’s man, he would not be able to bear to watch as his wife and child died. At that time, Duan Ling Tian would reveal himself. This was the opportunity Tang Xuan had been waiting for.

However, Tang Xuan did not expect Duan Ling Tian would reveal himself before he could even execute his plan properly.

“It’s really me?” Duan Ling Tian was shocked by Tang Xuan’s presence. He felt uneasy and confused by the implications in Tang Xuan’s words. He wondered what they meant.

Tang Xuan scoffed coldly when he saw the confusion on Duan Ling Tian’s face. “Previously, I’ve noticed your brows bear some resemblance to the Saint Girl’s daughter... Moreover, you’re also from the Lower Province. That’s why I suspected you’re the man that the Saint Girl has a relationship with.”

Daughter?

When Duan Ling Tian heard Tang Xuan’s words, he instinctively looked at the little girl in Gan Ru Yan’s arms. The little girl in Gan Ru Yan’s arms only had half of her cute face visible. Indeed, the resemblance in their brows was difficult to hide.

She is... Mine and Ke’er’s daughter?’ Duan Ling Tian felt a tug on his heartstring when he looked at the little girl. He felt his heart warmed.

This was his daughter.

This was his and Ke’er daughter! ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novelenglish.net . Firᴇ(.)nᴇt

TangXuan continued to speak, “However, my guess is nothing but a guess without any evidence. Originally, I planned to wait three months before I release a fake announcement about the execution of the Saint Girl and her daughter. I didn’t expect you to expose yourself before I even executed my plan!” He grew angrier and angrier. It seemed as though his anger had reached its boiling point.

As soon as Ke’er and Gan Ru Yan heard Tang Xuan’s words, their expressions changed immediately. They had no idea that Tang Xuan had announced that he would execute Duan Si Ling.

“That’s to say all the rumors about the execution of my daughter were deliberately spread by you to bait me?” Duan Ling Tian’s expression turned grim. He finally understood what was going on.

“Not a bait exactly. More like a test,” Tang Xuan said emotionlessly, “I wasn’t sure if you were the ‘man’ that the Saint Girl was searching for in the Lower Province. I just wanted to test you... If you’re not, then, it would be a good thing. If you are... then this is an unforgivable offense even if you’re the Guardian of Fire Worship Sect.” He spoke resolutely. It was clear there was no room for negotiations.

At this moment, Gan Ru Yan looked at Tang Xuan and said, “Lord Sect Leader! Guardian Ling Tian is one of the pillars of Fire Worship Sect. Can’t you overlook his crimes? In the past, the Fire Worship Sect has always given some kind immunity to elite powerhouses in regard to the laws of the sect. If you were to execute him, it would be the sect’s loss.”

Gan Ru Yan’s words were not only to persuade Tang Yuan to let go of Duan Ling Tian, but it was also to get Tang Xuan’s approval for her sister and Duan Ling Tian to be together. Th1s chapter is updated by n)ovel/\bin/\

Tang Xuan glared at Gan Ru Yan with a dark expression when he heard her words. “Ru Yan girl, you better not get involved! Otherwise, don’t blame me for not holding back even though you’re Guardian Qing Huo’s disciple!”

If Ke’er was just an ordinary Saint Girl, Tang Xuan would have given his approval for Duan Ling Tian her to be together. After all, Duan Ling Tian was also an important figure in the Fire Worship Sect. In fact, he would have probably taken the initiative to play matchmaker and make up a good love story in the Fire Worship Sect.

However, this Saint Girl was not just any other ordinary Saint Girl! Her origins were not simple! Her existence was

linked to the powerhouse whose power was similar to a deity.

For this reason, Tang Xuan did not want this matter to escalate. He had to find a way to confine Duan Ling Tian until that powerhouse comes to the mundane realm to hand out his judgment.

Based on Tang Xuan’s words to Gan Ru Yan, it could be seen that he had already made up his mind about Duan Ling Tian and Ke’er’s relationship! He would never allow Duan Ling Tian and the Fire Worship Sect’s Saint Girl to be together. It did not matter that Duan Ling Tian was currently one of the pillars of Fire Worship Sect!

Duan Ling Tian’s expression changed when he saw how resolute Tang Xuan was. Initially, he had thought Tang Xuan would forgive him in consideration of his strength and ability. He did not expect Tang Xuan would be so unyielding. At this moment, he understood there could be no happy ending to this matter so he no longer wasted his breath.

It seems like I’ll have to trick Tang Xuan into the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda and let Elder Huo deal with him before he can get to me. Otherwise, I’ll definitely die. If I die, my wife and daughter will be in grave danger.’ Duan Ling Tian was left with no other choice. This was the only way.

Duan Ling Tian quickly put his plan into action. He called out to Elder Huo, “Elder Huo!”

“It’s too risky! He might not take the bait!” Elder Huo replied to Duan Ling Tian.

“I know. He might not be fooled. However, there’s no other way, is there?” Duan Ling Tian said bitterly.

“Place the Jasper Celestial Sword and the Universe Ruler in the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda ... I’ll try and see if I can send all of you back to the Lower Province of Dao Martial Saint Land!” Elder Huo said again.

Duan Ling Tian was speechless when he heard Elder Huo’s words. Elder Huo had just told him he might be able to send them back to the Lower Province!

“Elder Huo, this...” Duan Ling Tian said doubtfully.

Before Duan Ling Tian could finish his sentence, Elder Huo interrupted him. “Stop asking me questions! What you need to do now is to quickly place the Jasper Celestial Sword and Universe Ruler back in the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda.”

Yes!” From the beginning, Elder Huo had never deceived Duan Ling Tian before. For this reason, he trusted Elder Huo. Since Elder Huo had suggested this, he did not hesitate when following Elder Huo’s instructions.

Duan Ling Tian quickly transferred the Celestial Supreme Treasures, the Jasper Celestial Sword and the Universe Ruler, that had been temporarily stored in the Spatial Ring into the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda.

When Duan Ling Tian transferred the Celestial Supreme Treasures, the Jasper Celestial Sword and the Universe Ruler, into the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, he noticed something strange. The Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda that was the size of a speck of dust seemed to have flown out of his ear. It seemed as though he had lost control of it.

Duan Ling Tian was stunned when he saw this. ‘Didn’t Elder Huo say that he’s unable to control the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda even though he’s the pagoda spirit?’

Meanwhile, Tang Xuan, the Sect Leader of Fire Worship Sect, shouted, “Duan Ling Tian!” He charged toward Duan Ling Tian.

Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!

Lighting flashed in the sky and the sound of sword clashing rang incessantly in the air.

Soon after, a circular light-shield formed from tens of thousands of blood-red sword qi appeared around Duan Ling Tian, Ke’er, Gan Ru Yan, and Duan Si Ling. The Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda was also in the protection of the light shield.

“What’s this?” Tang Xuan’s expression changed when he saw the light shield that was formed by sword qi appearing out of thin air. With a clap of thunder, the Saint Origin of a powerhouse at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage surged out of his body.

“This...” Duan Ling Tian was also shocked when he saw the sudden appearance of the light shield that protected them.

At this moment, Duan Ling Tian, a Sword Cultivator, could clearly see the tens of thousands of blood-red sword qi that created the light shield and its terrifying power. “This... Is this Elder Huo’s trick?”

Rip!

The sound of something ripping caught Duan Ling Tian’s attention. He saw a tear had appeared in the empty space near the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda. It was dark and he could not see where the tear led to.

Before Duan Ling Tian could react, he felt a powerful force pulling him, Ke’er, Gan Ru Yan and Duan Si Ling into the tear.
