Chapter 3539: A Deal Between Great Master Miyan and the t.i.tle Temple
“Temple Master Ru Lai?”
Xu Kong Hai, the Vice Temple Master of the main t.i.tle Temple, was surprised by the appearance of Ru Lai, who had been possessed by Great Master Miyan. Moreover, Miyan seemed strangely optimistic when the others were afraid. n.o.body had expected Feng Qing Yang to have become a King of G.o.ds after all. If they had known earlier about his breakthrough, they would not have tried to capture Duan Ling Tian in front of Feng Qing Yang. A King of G.o.d was enough to make the t.i.tle Temple compromise.
Although the t.i.tle Temple had stronger powerhouses, they were all in the Realms of G.o.ds. Before the pa.s.sages between the Devata Realms and the Realms of G.o.ds opened, there was no way for them to seek help. Currently, the strongest powerhouse in the t.i.tle Temple was Wu Hong Qing, the Temple Master, who was just an ordinary G.o.d. Even if Wu Hong Qing was not afraid of Feng Qing Yang, what about the other members? If Feng Qing Yang decided to kill all of them, what could they do? For this reason, Wu Hong Qing held back even though he was furious.
If Feng Qing Yang was only an intermediate G.o.d, there would not be any need for the t.i.tle Temple to hold back. After all, there were more than 20 intermediate G.o.ds in the t.i.tle Temple; they even had more than five advanced G.o.ds. Even if Feng Qing Yang was an advanced G.o.d, the t.i.tle Temple would still persist in capturing Duan Ling Tian today. Alas, Feng Qing Yang was a King of G.o.ds and had easily killed their Supreme Elder who was an advanced King of G.o.d.
“Ru Lai?” Wu Hong Qing glanced at Great Master Miyan before he said, “Vice Temple Master Xu told me you’d help. However, it’s meaningless now. Return to the t.i.tle Temple branch in the Pavilion Shaft Heaven.”
Although Wu Hong Qing knew that Ru Lai had come to help, he could not help but feel impatient. After all, even if all the Temple Masters of the t.i.tle Temple branches showed up, there was nothing they could do. Moreover, this was just Feng Qing Yang’s law of earth’s clone; they already had a difficult time dealing with his clone, it would be even more difficult to deal with his real person.
“Temple Master, I witnessed what happened earlier,” Great Master Miyan said leisurely upon hearing Wu Hong Qing’s words, “I didn’t expect that Feng Qing Yang has already become a King of G.o.ds. Although he had just recently broken through, it’s still unexpected…”
Wu Hong Qing was stunned. He did not understand why Ru Lai was so confident despite having witnessed what had happened earlier.
“Temple Master, please stand aside and watch,” Great Master Miyan said, “After I possess Duan Ling Tian, if the t.i.tle Temple is willing to make me the next Temple Master of the main t.i.tle Temple, I’ll also be willing to share my insight on the Four Daos of Heaven and Earth.”
Wu Hong Qing and the others from the t.i.tle Temple were shocked by Great Master Miyan’s words. Was it possible to access a person’s knowledge after possessing them?
While Wu Hong Qing and the others were still in shock, Duan Ling Tian asked, “How should I address you? I can’t address you as Ru Lai since you’re a member of the Phantom Clan.”
“The Phantom Clan?!”
The t.i.tle Temple members looked at Great Master Miyan in shock and fear. As high-ranking members of the t.i.tle Temple, they naturally knew about the Phantom Clan.
Great Master Miyan was slightly taken aback. Then, he laughed before he said, “It seems like you’re aware of everything. You can address me as Great Master Miyan. As for the Phantom Clan, I’m no longer a member of the Phantom Clan. After I possess you, I’ll be expelled from the clan. I’ll become you, and everything you own such as your memories and cultivation will belong to me!”
Great Master Miyan looked at Wu Hong Qing and said, “Temple Master, you should know the Phantom Clan will never accept someone who has possessed a physical body. You should also know a Phantom Clan member only has one chance to completely possess a body. I’ve not completely possessed Ru Lai and I’ve only been suppressing his soul. I’ve decided to use my one chance to possess Duan Ling Tian. I stand by what I said earlier. I need the protection of the t.i.tle Temple since the Phantom Clan will hunt me down once they discover this matter. It’s fine if I don’t become the Temple Master. As long as you agree to protect me, I’ll share my knowledge on the Four Daos of Heaven and Earth with the t.i.tle Temple after I possess Duan Ling Tian.”
Wu Hong Qing was moved by Great Master Miyan’s words. He knew about the Phantom Clan, a small force in the Land of the Dead, one of the seven deadliest places in the Devata Realms. He knew the Phantom Clan members did not have a corporeal form and could only possess a physical body once in their lives. He also knew it was taboo to possess a physical body in the clan due to an unfortunate incident in the past where the clan was almost annihilated due to a member who had possessed a physical body.
“I agree.” Wu Hong Qing knew the t.i.tle Temple was more than capable of protecting Great Master Miyan from the Phantom Clan. He said through Voice Transmission, “With Feng Qing Yang around, I’m afraid it’ll be difficult for you to possess Duan Ling Tian. I won’t be able to help you since I won’t openly provoke him.”
“Rest a.s.sured, Temple Master. You don’t need to do anything,” Great Master Miyan said confidently, “Feng Qing Yang will soon disappear from this world. He’s just a new King of G.o.ds.”
Following that, Great Master Miyan said in a low voice as his eyes glinted coldly, “Brother, please deal with Feng Qing Yang. After you destroy his clone, you should be able to find the location of his physical body and another clone. Please kill him.”
“Brother?”
Although Great Master Miyan had lowered his voice, it did not prevent everyone from hearing his words.
At the same time, Duan Ling Tian’s expression turned grim. He recalled Great Master Miyan had mentioned his brother was a King of G.o.ds when his master wanted to kill Great Master Miyan at the Primeval Cliff in the Heavenly Palace of the Primeval Heaven. For Great Master Miyan to be so confident after finding out his master was a King of G.o.ds, Great Master Miyan’s brother had to be a stronger King of G.o.ds.
At this moment, a humanoid soul suddenly shot out of Great Master Miyan’s body. Its aura was terrifying as it looked at Feng Qing Yang. “Younger brother, this will be the last time I help you. You’re on your own after this…”
It was none other than Mi Xuan, the Clan Leader of the Phantom Clan. He was an intermediate King of G.o.ds.
“Brother, I’d be too embarra.s.sed to ask another favor from you in the future,” Great Master Miyan as his eyes shone with excitement. He was so close to possessing the perfect body.
Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+
Without wasting time, Mi Xuan made his move. A terrifying soul attack shot out immediately. Due to a lack of corporeal forms, members of the Phantom Clan could only cast soul attacks.
Wu Hong Qing was shocked by Mi Xuan’s attack. “An intermediate King of G.o.ds?!”
Although Wu Hong Qing had roughly guessed Great Master Miyan must have found an intermediate King of G.o.ds at least to help him, he could not help but grow excited when he saw Mi Xuan’s strength.
‘The Phantom Clan specializes in tracking souls… Even if this is only Feng Qing Yang’s clone, he should be able to locate Feng Qing Yang’s physical body soon…’ Wu Hong Qing’s eyes shone brightly as he thought to himself, ‘This intermediate King of G.o.ds should be able to get rid of Feng Qing Yang for good!’
