Chapter 3386: The Qilin Clan
Needless to say, Little Gold was unwilling to return to Blood Moon Ridge.
Duan Ling Tian said with a hint of helplessness, “Even if you refuse to return to Blood Moon Ridge, shouldn’t you at least greet your Clan Leader? Otherwise, he might think I’ve abducted you…”
“Alright, I’ll send a message to the Clan Leader and the Grand Elder,” Little Gold replied. She emerged from Duan Ling Tian’s Little World and quickly sent a message back to Blood Moon Ridge. After a short time, she smiled and said, “I’m done!”
“You’re done?” Duan Ling Tian was surprised Little Gold dealt with everything so quickly.
“I told the Clan Leader that you’re the true disciple of the Heavenly Emperor of the Solitary Destructive Heaven and that he can verify it with the Heavenly Palace of the Solitary Destructive Heaven if he doesn’t believe me,” Little Gold laughed as she said, “He said he’s relieved that I’m staying in the Heavenly Palace of the Solitary Destructive Heaven and even told me to learn from Senior Feng Qing Yang.”
“You really have many schemes…” Duan Ling Tian said helplessly. It did not occur to him that Little Gold would use Feng Qing Yang whom he had yet to meet to stay with him.
Although Blood Moon Ridge was not an ordinary heaven-grade force in the Ten Thousand Beasts Heaven, the Clan Leader was naturally no match for Feng Qing Yang. It was not surprising that the Blood Moon Ridge was delighted Little Gold was acquainted with Feng Qing Yang.
“Little Black and Little White haven’t replied to my message… Could they have gone to the Solitary Destructive Heaven?” Little Gold paused a beat before she quickly added, “Brother Ling Tian, why don’t we return to the Solitary Destructive Heaven to check if they’ve gone there?”
However, Duan Ling Tian did not reply to Little Gold’s question. His eyes widened at this moment as an expression of excitement appeared on his face. “Father?!”
At the same time, Duan Si Ling, who was in Duan Ling Tian’s Little World, said, “Father, I received a message from grandfather! He said he’s in the Qilin Clan…”
“Father?!” Little Gold was stunned by Duan Ling Tian’s word. “Brother Ling Tian, you’ve received news from Uncle Ru Feng?”
Duan Ling Tian did not reply to Little Gold’s question and asked instead, “Little Gold, do you know the Qilin Clan?”
“The Qilin Clan?” Little Gold frowned. “Brother Ling Tian, are you saying that Uncle Ru Feng is in the Qilin Clan?”
“Yes.” Duan Ling Tian nodded. “Si Ling just told me that she received a message from her grandfather saying he’s in the Qilin Clan.”
Although Duan Ling Tian could send messages through the Soul Pearls of his father and the others. Alas, since they did not possess Duan Ling Tian’s Soul Pearl, they could not reply to him. However, fortunately, when they were in the Divine Offering Land, they had exchanged Soul Pearls with Duan Si Ling. Therefore, as long as they were in the same Devata Realm, Duan Si Ling could reach out to them.
“Ask Uncle Ru Feng how he ended up in the Qilin Clan.” Little Gold’s expression turned solemn as she looked at Duan Ling Tian.
“Alright.” Duan Ling Tian began to feel uneasy upon seeing Little Gold’s reaction. He quickly sent another message to Duan Ru Feng. “Father, how did you end up in the Qilin Clan? What’s your current situation like? Are you safe?”
Duan Ling Tian grew increasingly worried. After all, the Ten Thousand Beast Heaven was a realm dominated by Celestial Beasts. He did not expect any of his family and friends to be here. Who knew his father was in the Ten Thousand Beast Heaven.
“Si Ling, after receiving a reply from your grandfather, let me know immediately,” Duan Ling Tian said worriedly.
After a time, Duan Ling Tian asked anxiously,” Si Ling, did you receive a reply from your grandfather?”
“Oh, yes, h-he replied…” Duan Si Ling replied, clearly distracted.
Duan Ling Tian’s frown deepened. He wondered what Duan Ru Feng said that caused his daughter to be so distracted.
“What did your grandfather say?” Duan Ling Tian asked anxiously.
“Father, grandfather said he’s doing quite well, and he’s safe,” Duan Si Ling said.
“My father said he’s safe,” Duan Ling Tian hurriedly relayed the message to Little Gold.
“That’s great.” Little Gold’s expression eased slightly after listening to Duan Ling Tian’s words.
“Little Gold, why were you so nervous when you heard my father is in the Qilin Clan?” Duan Ling Tian asked curiously.
“Brother Ling Tian, don’t you know the Heavenly Emperor of the Ten Thousand Beasts Heaven is from the Qilin Clan?” Little Gold asked.
“I… I didn’t know.” Duan Ling Tian shook his head, surprised.
The Heavenly Emperor of Ten Thousand Beasts Heaven was from the Qilin Clan. This meant that the Qilin Clan was the Heavenly Palace of the Ten Thousand Beasts Heaven; it was the Heavenly Emperor’s force. This was different from the Heavenly Pool Palace since it was only connected to it due to his relations.h.i.+p with Xue Hong Yu. Whereas the Qilin Clan was where the Heavenly Emperor came from. Needless to say, it would become the Heavenly Emperor’s force, the Heavenly Palace of the Ten Thousand Beasts Kingdom.
“The Qilin Clan dominates the Ten Thousand Beasts Heaven… Even a force as strong as the dragon clan doesn’t dare to provoke against the Qilin Clan unless it was absolutely necessary, let alone Blood Moon Ridge,” Little Gold explained, “The Heavenly Emperor of Ten Thousand Beast Heaven is also a Divine Beast. He’s known as the Chaos Qilin. It’s said that the Chaos Qilin is born with the Chaos Divine Flame. His Chaos Divine Flame is definitely not a low-form Chaos Divine Flame. Apart from that, his strength was ranked in the top ten a long time ago among the Heavenly Emperors. His strength must have grown even more since then…” Her expression grew solemn again at the end of her words.
“A Chaos Qilin born with the Chaos Divine Flame?” Duan Ling Tian’s eyes narrowed. “How did the Chaos Qilin manage to live until now? From what I know, even those from the Realms of G.o.ds covet the Five Divine Elements. The G.o.ds aside, since it’s known that the Chaos Qilin is born with the Chaos Divine Flame, there must be many from the Devata Realm who tried to kill him for the Chaos Divine Flame, right?” Duan Ling Tian asked, perplexed.
In the past, when Duan Ling Tian entered the Purgatory Battlefield, he learned that those who possessed the Divine Elements would conceal them even if they were from formidable forces. For example, the Turquoise Water Divine Tiger, a Divine Beast from the White Tiger Clan, only exposed himself because he was confident he could kill Duan Ling Tian.
Even in the Nine Serenities Battlefield for Celestial Emperors, those strong Celestial Emperors who possessed the Divine Elements would still hide their ident.i.ties and the fact that they possessed a Divine Element.
“Brother Ling Tian, you’re not wrong. However, you didn’t factor in the fact that a supreme powerhouse from the Ten Thousand Beasts Heaven is also from the Qilin Clan,” Little Gold replied.
Duan Ling Tian was shocked by Little Gold’s words.
On the contrary, Elder Huo remained calm.
Upon seeing this, Duan Ling Tian asked, “Elder Huo, you knew about this?”
Elder Huo nodded. “The Lord Heavenly Emperor mentioned before.”
“How unexpected…” Duan Ling Tian sighed. He did not expect he would find his father with the Qilin Clan that had such an impressive background.
Up until now, the Qilin Clan was the strongest force that Duan Ling Tian had heard of. Needless to say, the dragon clan and Blood Moon Ridge could not compare to it at all. In fact, even the Heavenly Palace of the Solitary Destructive Heaven was not as strong as the Qilin Clan, also the Heavenly Palace of the Ten Thousand Beasts Heaven, that had a supreme powerhouse’s support.
“It’s said that the Chaos Qilin is born with a higher form of Chaos Divine Flame because of their supreme powerhouse,” Little Gold added, “Moreover, it’s said that there are many members of the Qilin Clan in the Realm of G.o.ds as well.”
Duan Ling Tian inhaled deeply. He could help but wonder how his father ended up in the Qilin Clan. He asked, “Si Ling, did your grandfather explain how he ended up in the Qilin Clan?”
“Father.” Duan Si Ling seemed to hesitate for a moment before she said, “Grandfather… Grandfather’s being imprisoned…”
Duan Ling Tian’s expression drastically changed. “What?!”
Little Gold’s expression changed as well. Most worryingly, even Elder Huo, a member of the Heavenly Palace of the Solitary Destructive Heaven, looked grim.
