“They’re my daughter-in-law and grandson as well. How can I possibly not do anything and let something happen to them if there’s something I can do?” Duan Ru Feng asked bitterly. “Rou’er, I’ve told you about the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land before, and you’ve also heard about how powerful the forces in the Upper Province are… Although our Azure Cloud Mansion is one of the top forces in the Lower Province, we’re nothing in the Upper Province. As for the Fire Wors.h.i.+p Sect, it’s one of the three great sects in the Dao Martial Saint Land. It’s an extremely ancient and powerful sect that has endured the test of time. Before the Dao Martial Saint Land was split into two, it was the most outstanding force in the Dao Martial Saint Land! Now that so much time has pa.s.sed, its strength would only increase, not decrease!”
When Duan Ru Feng reached the end of his sentence, he was swept by a wave of helplessness.
In the Lower Province of Dao Martial Saint Land, whether it was his own strength or the Azure Cloud Mansion’s strength, there was no need for them to fear anybody or any sect even though they were not considered as a top force. However, this was only limited to the Lower Province.
There were many powerhouses and sects in the Upper Province that it was like a school of silver carps swimming in a stream.
Compared to the many ancient and powerful sects in the Upper Province, both he and the Azure Cloud Mansion could only be considered as a below average sect even if they were not at the bottom. Although the other sects were not as ridiculously powerful as the Fire Wors.h.i.+p Sect, they were still extremely powerful.
The Fire Wors.h.i.+p Sect was a top force in the Upper Province of Dao Martial Saint Land?
When Li Rou heard Duan Ru Feng’s words, she, who was already pale, turned limp and fell to the ground immediately. It was fortunate Duan Ru Feng was fast enough to catch her in time.
He understood his wife’s feeling. He had heard his wife spoke about his daughter-in-law, Ke’er, more than once in the past. He knew that Ke’er’s position in his wife’s heart was not inferior to their son. He could understand his wife’s feelings.
“Brother Feng… Do you think something will happen to Ke’er and the child in her belly?” Li Rou asked with tear-filled eyes.
“No, don’t worry,” Duan Ru Feng rea.s.sured her, “The person who brought her away claimed that she’s Ke’er’s twin sister. Moreover, it seems like she treated Ke’er quite well. I’m certain she won’t hurt her…”
Naturally, the words he said out loud were different from what he thought in his heart.
Perhaps Ke’er’s sister might not do anything to Ke’er, but she might kill the baby in Ke’er’s belly. Moreover, even if Ke’er had her sister’s protection, she might not be able to go against the might of the Fire Wors.h.i.+p Sect. After all, the loss of the virginity of a Fire Wors.h.i.+p Sect’s Saint Girl was a serious matter.
Although Duan Ru Feng did not know much about the Fire Wors.h.i.+p Sect, he knew the Saint Girls of the three great sects had to be virgins. Only then would they be qualified to represent purity and their sects.
However, Ke’er was not only in a relations.h.i.+p with his son, but she was even pregnant with his child. If the Fire Wors.h.i.+p Sect discovered this, Ke’er would definitely die.
Naturally, he did not tell his wife, Li Rou, about this. He knew she would be even more worried about Ke’er’s safety if he told her about it. This was not something he was willing to see.
Moreover, although Duan Ru Feng told Li Rou he had sent his men out to search for Duan Ling Tian, in truth, he was not that anxious about it. Naturally, this was due to the Old Prophet’s instructions.
According to the Old Prophet, although they wanted to be reunited with their son, it would be better if his son found them on his own instead of him searching for his son.
“Tian’er, it’s not that I’m ruthless. However, this is also a kind of training for you. I believe the Old Prophet would not say things casually. It has to be for your own good for him to ask me to do this.” Although Duan Ru Feng also missed his son, the moment he remembered this matter concerned his son’s future, he was filled with determination again.
“Will my son really be able to defeat Di Jue, the Five-clawed Golden Dragon in five years’ time?” Duan Ru Feng suddenly remembered the battle he had arranged for Duan Ling Tian as the Old Prophet had instructed him to.
The winner of the battle would obtain the chance to enter the Dragon Cleansing Pool.
Although he had faith in his son, he did not think his son would possess the strength to defeat Di Jue in five years’ time. However, this was something decided by the Old Prophet.
Due to his trust in the Old Prophet, he was forced to believe his son would come to possess that kind of strength in five years’ time. “If I can find Tian’er, and let him cultivate in the Azure Cloud Mansion, I’m sure he won’t be a match for Di Jue in five years’ time! However, there are too many variables outside.” This was the reason Duan Ru Feng had gone along with the Old Prophet’s plan.
At this moment, Duan Ling Tian was, naturally, unaware of the thoughts running through his father, Duan Ru Feng’s mind.
Currently, he had been having a headache ever since he returned to the Situ Clan in the capital.
This was because as his name began to spread out, more and more people came to the SItu Clan just to take a look at him.
Initially, for the sake of Situ Hao, the Clan Leader of Situ Clan, he had met with many people. However, in the end, he became annoyed. After telling Situ Hao he was going into closed-door cultivation, he went to his room and entered the third level of Seven Treasures Exquisite PaG.o.da to cultivate.
No matter how busy it was outside, he cultivated in the Seven Treasures Exquisite PaG.o.da in peace. He was undisturbed by the outside world.
Naturally, before he went into closed-door cultivation, he had also informed Situ Hang, the Great Young Master of Situ Clan, that he could always knock on his door to wake him up if his senior brother came to the Situ Clan.
Even if Windfall Nation’s Emperor came personally, he refused to see anyone. Duan Ling Tian had casually said this at that time.
Although he had defeated Lady Feng of Drift Blaze Sect and replaced her in becoming the strongest person among the younger generation in Windfall Nation, he still had not reached the level where the Windfall Nation’s Emperor would personally come to visit him.
As the news of Duan Ling Tian and Feng Tian Wu’s battle spread out, Windfall Nation was boiling with excitement.
Lady Feng who was famously known as the strongest powerhouse among the younger generation in Windfall Nation had been defeated by another young man. Not only was she kicked out of the Heaven Ranking, but she had also lost her t.i.tle of being the strongest powerhouse among the younger generations in Windfall Nation.
That young man, Duan Ling Tian, was also the Interim Advisor of the Situ Clan.
“I can’t believe there are two monstrous powerhouses among the younger generation who appeared one after another in Windfall Nation in just a span of a few years… Based on their innate talent, I think they’re qualified to join the top-tier younger generation in the Southern Ridge Yuan Mansion’s surrounding districts.”
“It seems like Windfall Nation’s Fengshui is pretty good. Before this, we have Lady Feng, now we have Master Duan. Both of them are outstanding powerhouses among those young ones who have yet to reach 40 years old.”
…
Duan Ling Tian’s name and feat had spread out to every corner in Windfall Nation.
