Chapter 2845: Disrupting the Peace


Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


‘If the people from the Tai Yi Celestial Sect are giving their Duke Grade Celestial Method and Divine Abilities for free, there’s no reason to refuse them!’ This was the thought of the Sect Leaders of the Supporting Sun Celestial Sect and the Thousand Leaves Celestial Sect. Therefore, they wasted no time after receiving the messages from Tan Zheng Ye and Guan Qi Fei and made their way to the Tai Yi Celestial Sect’s shop in Alchemy City.



Meanwhile, not only did the crowd in front of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect’s shop not dispersed, but the crowd grew even bigger. More and more people came to watch the excitement.


“This time, the Tai Yi Celestial Sect has landed themselves in big trouble… Perhaps, even the Old Ancestor did not expect Master Guan and Vice Sect Leader Tan would really invite their respective sect leaders over.”


“The purple-clad young man from the Tai Yi Celestial Sect has done it this time! I wonder who he is? He even got the Old Ancestor of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect to go along with his crazy plan!”


“I didn’t expect to see such drama before the Alchemy Conference even begins… This trip to Alchemy City in the Barren Land is truly worthwhile.”


Apart from the crowd who came to watch the excitement, Guan Qi Fei, the prominent Celestial Alchemist from the Supporting Sun Celestial Sect, and his people, and Tan Zheng Ye, the Vice Sect Leader of the Thousand Leaves Celestial Sect, and his two disciples were standing outside the Tai Yi Celestial Sect’s shop as well.


As for the people from the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, they had gone into the inner chamber of the shop, away from prying eyes.


Since He Shan, the Old Ancestor of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, was here, everyone, including Tan Zheng Ye, did not dare to recklessly extend their Divine Consciousness in there to find out what was happening.


However, in the eyes of the people outside, the actions of the people from the Tai Yi Celestial Sect made them look guilty.



In the inner chamber of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect’s shop.


“Old Ancestor, when the Sect Leaders of the Supporting Sun Celestial Sect and the Thousand Leaves Celestial Sect arrive, there’s a possibility they might not agree to my bet,” Duan Ling Tian looked at He Shan and said, “At that time, I hope you’ll cooperate with me to put on a show…”


“At that time, please do this…” Duan Ling Tian revealed his plan to He Shan to ensure the Sect Leaders of the Supporting Sun Celestial Sect and the Thousand Leaves Celestial Sect, would not refuse to bet.


After listening to Duan Ling Tian’s plan, Situ Ming smiled widely. “If you do this… the Sect Leaders of the Supporting Sun Celestial Sect and the Thousand Leaves Celestial Sect will definitely take the bait!”


Yang Chong said with a smile, “We’re going to have a good start ahead of the Alchemy Conference… Perhaps, we can even win a triple-trait Duke Grade Celestial Method or Divine Ability for the sect in the future!”


On the contrary, He Shan frowned as he said, “Master Duan, it’s not difficult to ensure the Sect Leaders of the Supporting Sun Celestial Sect and the Thousand Leaves Celestial Sect to take the bait… As long as they confirm you’re not even 100 years old, they won’t believe you’re a prominent Celestial Alchemist, let alone capable of refining Overarching Heaven Pills. However, if you refine pills publicly, won’t everyone find out about your heating speed? If that happens, it’d be difficult to make a bet with others in the future.”


Initially, He Shan had hoped to obtain double-trait Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities for the Tai Yi Celestial Sect. However, with this bet, he no longer felt the same way. After all, the sect was about to obtain a double-trait Celestial Method and Divine Ability from the Supporting Sun Celestial Sect and the Thousand Leaves Celestial Sect. At this moment, his goal had changed to obtaining triple-trait Duke Grade Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities for the sect!


“You can rest a.s.sured, Old Ancestor.” Duan Ling Tian smiled faintly when he heard He Shan’s concern. A shrewd look flashed briefly in the depths of his eyes as he said, “I have complete control over my cauldron-heating speed. Although the same can’t be said for increasing my speed, it’s easy for me to slow my speed. I’ll keep my heating speed to eight hours after this. With that, we can still continue with our plan.”


“That’s right! We can prolong the time if we want. With Master Duan’s skills, slowing down and prolonging the time cannot be any easier,” Situ Ming said.


“Don’t worry, Old Ancestor.” Yang Chong chimed in.


“That’s good.” He Shan sighed in relief when he heard their words. His eyes brightened as he said, “After today, our Tai Yi Celestial Sect will have an offensive-defensive Duke Grade Celestial Method and an offensive-movement Duke Grade Divine Ability!”


Once the Tai Yi Celestial Sect obtained the double-trait Duke Grade Celestial Method and Divine Ability from the Supporting Sun Celestial Sect and the Thousand Leaves Celestial Sect, the improvements in the sect would not be immediately apparent. However, with time, the overall strength of the sect would surely improve. At that time, even if the Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect and the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect joined forces, they still might not be able to suppress the Tai Yi Celestial Sect.


As an old generation powerhouse of Tai Yi Celestial Sect, He Shan, naturally, hoped to see the Tai Yi Celestial Sect rise higher before he had to leave the sect and the borderlands. As he looked at Duan Ling Tian, he found Duan Ling Tian becoming more and more pleasing to the eyes. ‘All this is thanks to this Celestial Alchemist…’



About a quarter of an hour later.


Tan Zheng Ye’s voice rang from outside the shop. “Senior He Shan, my sect leader is here!”


Guan Qi Fei’s voice sounded in due course as well. “The Sect Leader of the Supporting Sun Celestial Sect is here as well.”


Duan Ling Tian looked at He Shan and solemnly said, “Old Ancestor, the sect leaders are here. Whether they agree to my bet or not, it’ll depend on you…”


“Don’t worry, Master Duan, I’ll make sure to succeed. After all, whether our sect can obtain a double-trait Duke Grade Celestial Method and Divine Ability hinges on this!” He Shan replied.


Duan Ling Tian sighed in relief inwardly. Then, he, Huan’er, Situ Ming, Yang Chong, and Yu Zhong Jing followed He Shan out of the shop.


“So many people have gathered here!” Situ Ming was shocked when he saw the crowd in front of the shop had grown bigger.


As soon as Duan Ling Tian and the others walked out, two strangers stepped forward and took the initiative to greet He Shan. “Senior He Shan.”


With Guan Qi Fei and Tan Zheng Ye standing at the back of the two strangers, it was not difficult to figure out their ident.i.ties. They were obviously the Sect Leaders of the Supporting Sun Celestial Sect and the Thousand Leaves Celestial Sect respectively.


The person standing in front of Guan Qi Fei was a middle-aged man with a st.u.r.dy body who was dressed in a flaming red robe. His face looked stern, and his eyes radiated power.


On the other hand, the person standing in front of Tan Zheng Ye was an elegant middle-aged man dressed in a white robe. He was handsome. He held a folding fan in his hand, making him look like a scholar.


‘Lian Cheng Yi, the Sect Leader of the Supporting Sun Celestial Sect, and Xiao Teng, the Sect Leader of the Thousand Leaves Celestial Sect.’ When they were in the shop, He Shan had briefly spoken about the Sect Leaders of the Supporting Sun Celestial Sect and the Thousand Leaves Celestial Sect to Duan Ling Tian. He Shan also informed Duan Ling Tian that Lian Cheng Yi and Xiao Teng were both Eight Trigrams Celestial Dukes as well. However, although their cultivation bases were similar to He Shan, they were lower in seniority since He Shan was the Old Ancestor of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect.


“Sect Leader Lian, Sect Leader Xiao, it has been a while since we last met,” He Shan responded to Lian Cheng Yi and Xiao Ten. He feigned a helpless expression as he spoke.


He Shan’s helpless expression, naturally, did not escape Lian Cheng Yi and Xiao Teng’s notice even though He Shan’s expression had quickly returned to normal.


“Senior He Shan, I heard about what happened. This is just a trivial matter. Why don’t you order Master Duan to refine the Overarching Heaven Pills to clear Tai Yi Celestial Sect’s name? There is no need for a bet,” Lian Cheng Yi said to He Shan.


“That’s right,” Xiao Teng chimed in, “Senior He Shan, why don’t we forget about the bet? You can just order your sect’s Celestial Alchemist to refine the Overarching Heaven Pill.”


Upon hearing Liang Cheng Yi and Xiao Teng’s words, He Shan seemingly sighed in relief. He hurriedly said to accept their proposal, “Well, since the two sect leaders have spoken…”


However, before He Shan could finish his sentence, Guan Qi Fei looked at He Shan seriously as he interjected, “Senior He Shan! Earlier, your Tai Yi Celestial Sect’s Master Duan proposed a bet, and you’ve said that you’ll support him. It seems like you’re regretting your words now and planning to go back on them. Isn’t it… inappropriate?” He smiled smugly when he finished speaking as though he was certain of his success.


“Who do you think you are?!” He Shan looked at Guan Qi Fei coldly and rebuked him, “I’m talking to the two sect leaders. It’s not your place to interrupt me and order me around!” His expressions were colorful as he spoke.


Duan Ling Tian who was standing close to He Shan saw the various expressions flitting across He Shan’s face, and he could not help but sigh inwardly. ‘The Old Ancestor’s acting skills are really quite impressive!’


“Senior He Shan!” Tan Zheng Ye seized the opportunity and chimed in, “It’s as Master Guan said, the bet was proposed by Master Duan. Even if you plan to go back on your words, I think you should speak to Master Duan before agreeing to anything.” Then, he turned to look at Duan Ling Tian.


Soon enough, everyone s.h.i.+fted their eyes to Duan Ling Tian.


“Vice Sect Leader Tan,” Duan Ling Tian fearlessly met Tan Zheng Ye’s gaze and loudly said, “I agree with Sect Leader Lian and Sect Leader Xiao… Making a bet out of this will disrupt the peace between our Tai Yi Celestial Sect and your two sects.”


Upon hearing this, Tan Zheng Ye and Guan Qi Fei could not help but curse Duan Ling Tian for being so shameless.


On the other hand, He Shan, Situ Ming, and others looked stunned as well.


‘What’s Master Duan doing? Isn’t he afraid the Supporting Sun Celestial Sect and the Thousand Leaves Celestial Sect would really give up on accepting the bet?’
