Chapter 2361 Ke’er’s Cousin In Her Past Life?
Tang Xuan did not die after swearing on the lightning penalty oath, proving the veracity of his words.
Everyone, including Duan Ling Tian and his companions, felt a jolt of fear.
The mysterious person was capable of tearing a crack in the void that was over 1,000 meters long with just a wave of his hand? Someone like that was, indeed, G.o.d-like.
Duan Ling Tian stared at Tang Xuan and asked in a low voice, “Who’s he?”
“I’m not sure who he is.” Tang Xuan smiled bitterly as he shook his head. “However, I’m sure that he’s not from the mundane realm. He must be from the Devata Realm! Moreover, the movement Divine Ability that I mastered came from him as well.”
A commotion broke out when people heard Tang Xuan’s words.
“Lord Sect Leader’s movement Divine Ability is from the powerhouse from the Devata Realm who could tear a crack in the void that’s over 1,000 meters long?”
“N-no wonder powerhouses at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage couldn’t catch up to Lord Sect Leader even when his cultivation base was at the Eighth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. As it turns out his Divine Ability is from the Devata Realm!”
“It makes sense now why Lord Sect Leader’s movement Divine Ability is a cut above all the movement Divine Abilities in the Dao Martial Saint Land.”
“It seems like I was wrong. I thought the movement Divine Ability is from our Fire Wors.h.i.+p Sect.”
The people from the Fire Wors.h.i.+p Sect discussed this among themselves. They had, naturally, heard many things about their sect leader’s movement Divine Ability that was widely acknowledged as the number one movement Divine Ability in the Dao Martial Saint Land. They were stunned when they found out that the movement Divine Ability was from the Devata Realm.
“Is that man related to my wife?” Duan Ling Tian asked in a low voice. He did not think Tang Xuan would mention that man for no reason at all.
“That’s right,” Tang Xuan nodded as he said, “That G.o.d-like powerhouse told me that he was the Saint Girl’s cousin in her past life…”
“Cousin?” Duan Ling Tian raised an eyebrow and instinctively turned to look at Ke’er.
Ke’er had an expression of shock and disbelief on her face at this moment. It was obvious that she knew nothing about this.
When Duan Ling Tian found out that the powerhouse was Ke’er’s cousin in her past life, some of the tension eased on his face. Most people would not believe in reincarnation, but he was different since he had personally experienced it. Moreover, he even knew someone who had reincarnated three times. That person was the Rebirth Martial Emperor whom he had met when he first came to this world.
The Three Lives Rebirth Technique that the Rebirth Martial Emperor cultivated allowed him to live three lives. With this technique, he could continue to cultivate and grow extremely strong. Unfortunately, the Rebirth Martial Emperor chose to be born in Duan Ling Tian’s current body during his third rebirth. At that time, Duan Ling Tian’s soul that came from earth had already occupied the body. Since Duan Ling Tian’s soul did not come from this realm, the Rebirth Martial Emperor was annihilated when he tried to harm Duan Ling Tian’s soul. For this reason, Duan Ling Tian believed in reincarnation.
“Although that man said he’s the Saint Girl’s cousin in her past life, I saw the strong desire to possess in his eyes when he spoke about the Saint Girl!” Just as Duan Ling Tian had sighed in relief, Tang Xuan dropped another bomb. “I’m afraid that his relations.h.i.+p with the Saint Girl in her past life is not as simple as just being cousins… I think he likes her and most likely courted her in the past!” A hint of glee could be seen on his face when he spoke. It was clear he was enjoying Duan Ling Tian’s discomfort.
Duan Ling Tian’s expression darkened. “He likes her?” Although Duan Ling Tian knew the current Ke’er had nothing to do with the Ke’er from the past, he could not help but feel displeased when he heard that the mysterious powerhouse liked Ke’er. Then, he turned to look at Tang Xuan as he asked, “So he came to the mundane realm just to tell you these things? Since he knew Ke’er is the reincarnation of his cousin, why didn’t he take her away? Why did he let her stay in the mundane realm?” He was confused. Since Ke’er was that man’s cousin and he had affection for her, why did he not bring her away?
“I’ve asked him this question before,” Tang Xuan said, “However, he didn’t answer me. He only requested that I take care of the Saint Girl… In exchange for that, he rewarded me. Before he left, he said that he would return for the Saint Girl. I don’t know who he is or if he’s really from the Devata Realm. However, based on what I could see, he seems to be not from this realm.”
Although almost 100 years had pa.s.sed, Tang Xuan’s face still held a hint of fear when he spoke about that G.o.d-like powerhouse.
“Did he say when he’ll return?” Duan Ling Tian asked in a low voice as his eyes flashed fiercely.
“He didn’t say exactly when… He only said he’ll return within 100 years. It’s almost 100 years now since he left,” Tang Xuan replied.
“Is that all?” Duan Ling Tian asked, his tone was calm now.
Tang Xuan was taken aback by Duan Ling Tian’s quick change of emotion.
“I said, is that all you know about that man?” Duan Ling Tian asked again.
“Yes, that’s all I know.” Tang Xuan nodded.
“If that’s the case… Since you’ve given me valuable information, I’ll make it quick for you!”
Tang Xuan did not have time to react at all when Duan Ling Tian’s Celestial Origin Energy that was mixed with Saint Origin surged out of his body like a ferocious and majestic dragon.
“You…” Tang Xuan was taken aback when he felt Duan Ling Tian’s killing intent. He did not expect Duan Ling Tian to attack him. However, he was still the Sect Leader of Fire Wors.h.i.+p Sect after all. His reaction time was, naturally, better than most people. As soon as he regained his senses, he quickly mobilized his Saint Origin and cast his movement Divine Ability to escape.
A scoff rang in the air.
Before Tang Xuan had a chance to move, a vast and extremely terrifying force landed on him and shrouded him like a wave cras.h.i.+ng down on him before dragging him into the sea. His Saint Origin was instantly suppressed. No matter how hard he tried to mobilize it, it was all in vain. At this moment, he remembered the Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestial by Duan Ling Tian’s side. A wave of despair overwhelmed him. “How could I forget about him!”
Boom!
A loud explosion sounded in the air as the force that Duan Ling Tian released from his hand landed on Tang Xuan who was held captive. With that, Duan Ling Tian effortlessly killed Tang Xuan, leaving no traces behind.
Tang Xuan, the Sect Leader of Fire Wors.h.i.+p Sect, a powerhouse at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage who was ranked fourth on the Supreme Saint Ranking had died just like that.
The entire place was deadly silent. The people from the Fire Wors.h.i.+p Sect could only helplessly watch as their sect leader was killed. There was nothing they could do at all. Not to mention they did not have time to react, even if they did, they still could not have done anything. After all, their opponents were an Eminent Celestial and a Four Tribulation Bodiless Celestial.
After killing Tang Xuan, Duan Ling Tian lifted his head and looked at the sky. His voice was thunderously loud, seemingly capable of shaking heaven, as he bellowed, “Elder Huo! Do you see this? I’ve killed Tang Xuan! I’ve avenged you!”
Based on Duan Ling Tian’s words, the people from the Fire Wors.h.i.+p Sect finally discovered Duan Ling Tian had killed their sect leader for revenge.
Duan Ling Tian’s voice that echoed through the Fire Wors.h.i.+p Sect’s estate, naturally, caused another uproar.
“That’s Guardian Ling Tian’s voice!”
“D-did he say he killed Tang Xuan? Tang Xuan is Lord Sect Leader, right?”
“I can’t believe it! H-he killed Lord Sect Leader?”
“I-is he really the successor of the Fog Rain Progeny of the Seven Absolutes Sect?”
“If he’s truly the successor of the Fog Rain Progeny, this means he’s also the Sect Leader of the Seven Absolutes Sect. Based on the enmity between our sect and the Seven Absolutes Sect, I’m afraid he won’t let us go!”
“D-ddoes t-this mean he’s going to eradicate our sect and kill all of us now that he has killed Lord Sect Leader?”
Meanwhile, the people who witnessed Duan Ling Tian killing Tang Xuan finally regained their senses. Their eyes were filled with panic and fear as they looked at Duan Ling Tian.
