4459 It’s Him!
The party of four flew on Hu Fei Yan’s flying ship, making their way to the Peaceful Might Realm from the Linked Solitary Realm.
Hu Fei Yan was the Deputy Commander of the Colossal Heaven Army. As such, people in and around the Linked Solitary Realm and the Peaceful Might Realm were familiar with her flying ship. As such, no one dared to provoke them, and their journey was very smooth. It was also for this reason that they decided to use her flying ship.
During the journey, although Hu Fei Yan was not a particularly talkative person, she would ask Duan Ling Tian questions from time to time. It was clear she was curious about him. When she learned that he came from the Myriad Worlds, she was slightly surprised. Just like Tan Xiu Teng, she assumed Duan Ling Tian was from one of the Three Upper Worlds, and Duan Ling Tian did not deny nor confirm it.
Before leaving, Duan Ling Tian had reminded Tan Xiu Teng not to reveal his real name without permission. As such, Han Wang and Hu Fei Yan continued addressing him as Li Feng.
Tan Xiu Teng was now restricted by the Heaven Vault’s Blood Oath. He naturally would not go against Duan Ling Tian. However, he could not help but feel puzzled; he could not figure out why Duan Ling Tian did not want to reveal his true identity to others. Naturally, he would never be able to guess the reason Duan Ling Tian wanted to hide his identity was due to the liquid from the divine fountain that he obtained while he was in the God Defying World.
Even supreme powerhouses coveted the divine fountain. If people found out that he was Duan Ling Tian from the God Defying World who possessed liquid from the divine fountain, he would definitely be targeted.
Although Tan Xiu Teng was not weak and was quite famous in the Divine Sand Realm, almost no one had heard of him outside of the Divine Sand Realm. He did not have connections to powerful people in the Outer Boundary. It was not surprising that he did not know about Duan Ling Tian, the heaven-defying prodigy from the God Defying Realm who had obtained a large amount of liquid from the divine fountain.
Duan Ling Tian was aware of this so he did not bother to hide his identity from Tan Xiu Teng. In his opinion, Tan Xiu Teng would not come in contact with powerful people even if they were traveling together. However, he did not expect that they would meet not one, but two supreme powerhouses so soon after they left the Divine Sand Realm.
After a moment, Duan Ling Tian looked at Han Wang, who was resting with his eyes closed, fearfully as he thought to himself, ‘It seems like Senior Han Wang usually stays in the Divine Sand Realm and the Linked Solitary Realm, but I wonder if he’s heard of me… If my identity is exposed, I might be in danger. Fortunately, Tan Xiu Teng swore on the Heaven Vault’s Blood Oath. Until the contract expires, I don’t have to worry about him exposing me. I have to change the color of my robes occasionally so people won’t make the connection…’
Duan Ling Tian hoped to become a peerless top advanced Supreme God first before his identity and the fact that he possessed the liquid from the divine fountain were exposed. With that, at the very least, he would have some sort of protection.
Meanwhile, the more Tan Xiu Teng thought about it, the more he felt like something was amiss. He speculated inwardly, ‘I wonder why young master won’t let me reveal his name… Don’t tell me the force or supreme powerhouse behind him has a conflict with Han Wang or the Lord of the Colossal Heaven Army?’
Tan Xiu Teng naturally could never guess that it was because his young master possessed treasures that even supreme powerhouses coveted.
…
When they crossed the border of the Peaceful Might Realm, Han Yu Qing finally opened his eyes. Seeing that Duan Ling Tian was not cultivating, he took the initiative to chat with Duan Ling Tian. He asked about Duan Ling Tian’s experience after leaving Dancing Sun City.
Duan Ling Tian recounted what had happened in the Blue Dawn City’s Wang clan. Naturally, he concealed many things as well. He did not mention that he went to the Wang clan to marry Wang Luo Yu in order to fulfill a promise. He only said that he fell in love with Wang Luo Yu.
“As expected, even prodigies can’t resist beautiful women… Li Feng, I really envy your passion,” Han Wang said. After sighing, he continued, “I forgot. You’re not even 10,000 years old. When I was your age, I was also filled with passion…”
A hint of nostalgia could be seen in Han Wang’s eyes when he finished speaking. He was clearly recalling his past. He had broken the hearts of many beauties, and he had also fallen in love. However, the person he loved had turned into dust with the passage of time, and he was so devastated by the parting that he had given up on love altogether…
“I heard that you advised the Heaven Bearing Sword Saint in the Divine Saint Realm. I’m sure his Sword Dao will improve significantly… Who knows I might not even be able to defeat him in the future…” Han Wang said. Although he was not familiar with Situ Lei, the Heaven Bearing Sword Saint, he had heard of Situ Lei. He knew a few supreme powerhouses in the Divine Sand Realm, and Chi Ming, the supreme demon from Chi Ming Mountain. He had heard about Situ Lei from Chi Ming, and he also knew that when Chi Ming and Situ Lei fought in the past, the fight had ended in a draw.
“It’s a pity I didn’t comprehend the Sword Dao… Otherwise, I could have gotten some inspiration from you,” Han Wang said, feeling slightly envious of Situ Lei. It was difficult to grow stronger in the realm of supreme powerhouses after all. It was not that there was no one who could provide the kind of help that Duan Ling Tian provided Situ Lei. It was just that those people were stronger than him or World Supreme Powerhouses. How could it be easy to seek help from those people? Even if they were willing, he would definitely have to pay a considerable price. Moreover, there were also risks; he could not guarantee that the other party did not harbor ill intentions. He would naturally feel more at ease if the other party was weaker than him. If he was stronger, he would have the upper hand. Considering all things, how could he not envy Situ Lei?
“Senior Han Wang, you’re overpraising me,” Duan Ling Tian said, “Your Mastery Dao likely isn’t much weaker than mine.”
After saying that, Duan Ling Tian glanced at the beautiful figure sitting cross-legged with her back facing them nearby. Then, he said, looking slightly puzzled, “Senior Han Wang, when I fought Deputy Commander Hu earlier, I had felt that her Mastery Dao was a little familiar. I only saw the initial moment when you made a move in Dancing Sun City, but I still found the similarities between your and Deputy Commander Hu’s Mastery Dao…”
Han Wang said with a smile, “Li Feng, you have quite a keen sense. That girl, Fei Yan, comprehended the rudimentary form of the Mastery Dao on her own. Later on, I formally guided her…”
“I see…”
Han Wang’s explanation completely resolved Duan Ling Tian’s doubts. As it turned out, Han Wang was Hu Fei Yan’s teacher in the Mastery Dao.
After that, Han Wang took the initiative and told Duan Ling Tian about the descendant of his old friend in the Peaceful Might Realm.
The other party was a prodigy who comprehended the law of death to its perfect form before reaching 10,000 years old, and he was not any weaker than Hu Fei Yan before her breakthrough. Currently, although he was slightly weaker than Hu Fei Yan, he was younger than Hu Fei Yan. He would likely be stronger than Hu Fei Yan at her age.
“Since Fei Yan has broken through, he likely won’t think much of it if he were defeated by her. Only someone like you who’s about his age and has the strength to defeat him can humble him…” Han Wang said.
An expression of pity appeared on Tan Xiu Teng’s face when he overheard Han Wang’s words. He truly pitied the descendant of Han Wang’s old friend.
‘That kid is out of luck…’
In the beginning, Tan Xiu Teng was curious about the supreme powerhouse who was Han Wang’s old friend. In his opinion, the other party was definitely not simple since he was friends with Han Wang. He thought that the other party had to be a famous figure in the Peaceful Might Realm. He was familiar with the top supreme powerhouses in the Peaceful Might Realm, and when he heard the other party’s name from Han Wang, he paled in shock.
“It’s him!”
