War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

I didn't think there would be so many people from the Three Palaces and Six Halls among those I killed in the ruin left behind by a quasi Celestial-grade Saint Inscription Master…'

After Duan Ling Tian returned to the inn and reunited with Ke'er and their daughter, he brought them and Gan Ru Yan out. At this point, there was nothing left for him to do in the Human-Devil Saint City. For this reason, he was ready to bring the girls back to the Mortal Continent to look for his parents, wife, and friends. If he was his father, he would definitely return to the Mortal Continent after he brought his men away from the Azure Cloud Mansion!

The cultivation environment on the Mortal Continent was average at best, powerful Devil Clans would not go there. Therefore, the Mortal Continent should be relatively safe in the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land since only weak Devil Clans would go there.

Naturally, the Devil Clans would only be considered weak by Duan Ling Tian. To the people in the Mortal Continent, these Devil Clans would still be quite formidable. It would be difficult for them to stand up against these Devil Clans.

The Land of Exile where the Devil Clans were from is an extremely cutthroat place. A weakling would not be able to survive without the protection of a powerhouse or a strong faction. Most of the Devil Clans that were able to survive in the Land Exile would still be stronger than the humans on the Mortal Continent.

"Xing Yuan Ba's only son, a cultivator at the Sixth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, died in the ruin that was suspected to be left behind by a Celestial-grade Saint Inscription Master?"

Duan Ling Tian overheard the conversation of a few passersby as soon as he left the inn with the girls. A strange expression appeared on his face immediately.

Could the person they're talking about be one of the Human-Devils I killed in the ruin left behind by the quasi Celestial-grade Saint Inscription Master who's also an Eminent Celestial?' Many Human-Devils had lost their lives to Duan Ling Tian in the ruin.

To Duan Ling Tian, a Human-Devil at the Sixth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage was no different from a Human-Devil at the First Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. Both were equally weak in his eyes!

If I'm not mistaken I killed a few Human-Devils at the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage as well. However, they're quite weak compared to the Wandering Saint Palace's Huang Wen Jing,' Duan Ling Tian thought to himself.

If my memory serves me correctly, Xing Yuan Ba is one of the Vice Palace Masters of the Great Spirit Palace… Apart from that, he's widely acknowledged as the strongest among the Human-Devils below the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage!' Since Duan Ling Tian had stayed in the Human-Devil Saint City for a while now, he had, naturally, heard about Xing Yuan Ba.

I wonder how strong Xing Yuan Ba is compared to Hao Shuang who's in the Upper Province!'

Hao Shuang was the former strongest person below the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage in the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land before Duan Ling Tian defeated him. During their battle, Duan Ling Tian had destroyed his physical body with the Celestial Supreme Treasure, the Jasper Celestial Sword. He ended up using the Soul Detaching Technique to escape with his soul.

Based on what I know, I heard that there are three Palace Masters from the Three Palaces and Six Halls who are at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. The six Hall Masters from the Six Halls were only at the peak of the Eighth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. Since Xing Yuan Ba is supposedly invincible among those at the Eighth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, does this mean he's stronger than all six Hall Masters of the Six Halls? If that's the case, he could easily start his own faction with his strength… Why does he stay in the Great Spirit Palace to be under someone's command?' Duan Ling Tian was puzzled. He could not find a logical reason for this even after he had thought about it for some time. In the end, he dismissed the thought, deciding there was no point for him to dwell on it.

Duan Ling Tian was carrying Duan Si Ling in his arms as they walked down the streets. She blinked her eyes innocently as she asked, "Daddy, are we going to see grandpa and grandma?"

"Yes, we're going to see grandpa and grandma." Duan Ling Tian nodded at her affectionately. "Do you want to see grandpa and grandma?"

"I do!" Duan Si Ling nodded like a chick that was pecking grains on the ground. "Mummy said that grandma and grandpa will feed Si Ling with good food…"

Duan Ling Tian was rendered speechless when he heard his daughter's words. He instinctively turned to look at Ke'er who was standing next to him.

Ke'er quickly lowered her head to hide the blush that had crept up on her face while Gan Ru Yan chuckled.

On their way out of the Human-Devil Saint City, Duan Ling Tian managed to glean information from the conversations in his surroundings. It made him realize that he had offended the two palaces and six halls out of the Three Palaces and Six Halls.

"The Vice Hall Master of the Azure Sheen Hall, Gongsun Jin, had lost two of his direct disciples in the ruin as well?"

"That's not all! Wu Tian Jin, the Vice Hall Master of the Crimson Blaze Palace, had also lost his godson and a few elites among the younger generation as well."

"There's also the strongest person among the younger generation in the King Kong Hall. He's the direct disciple of the Hall Master as well. It seems like he has also died in there!"

Although Duan Ling Tian knew he had to have killed a few of the Human-Devils with extraordinary backgrounds, he did not expect there to be so many of them!

"It seems like the Wandering Saint Palace suffers the least losses at my hands since they only lost three men to me before I entered the ruin!" Duan Ling Tian had spared the people from the Wandering Saint Palace since they were humans. Moreover, they arrived last in the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land and did not partake in the slaughtering of humans. Since they were the same kind, was there a need to rush to kill each other? This was also the reason Duan Ling Tian had held back from killing the people from the Wandering Saint Palace!

I supposed Huang Wen Jing from the Wandering Saint Palace is the only one who would be able to guess that I'm behind the killings of the Human-Devils in the ruin. After all, she had personally witnessed me killing a group of Human-Devils to improve her Innate Spiritual Root!'

A few thoughts flashed through Duan Ling Tian's mind at this moment. For some reason, he was certain Huang Wen Jing would not tell on him. Although he did not spend a lot of time with her, he could tell she was a smart girl who would not seek trouble for herself. He had made it clear to her that if she revealed what she knew, Duan Ling Tian would not be the only one who would get into trouble. She would be in trouble as well!

As for Huang Qi Ling who's also from the Wandering Saint Palace, he's only aware that I killed a few Human-Devils who wanted to kill him… Moreover, I did not reveal myself. I don't think he'll betray me even if I've killed a few elite disciples from the two palaces and six halls.'

For this reason, Duan Ling Tian was confident the people from the two palaces and six halls would not be able to trace the killing in the ruin back to him.

Fortunately, there are no Dao Cultivators in the Devil Clans… Otherwise, I would've been exposed!' Since Dao Cultivators were scarce in the Devil Clans, there were almost no Dao Talisman Masters among them. Since they did not have Dao Talisman Masters, it was only natural that they did have something like the Mirror Image Talisman. Otherwise, he would have been exposed if even one of the Human-Devils possessed a Mirror Image Talisman.

I wonder how things will change the next time I come to the Human-Devil Saint City…'

As Duan Ling Tian walked out of the Human-Devil Saint City, he turned back to look at the Human-Devil Saint City briefly as his eyes glinted coldly.

At this moment, Duan Ling Tian was unaware that a middle-aged man was hovering high up in the sky at this moment near the city gates where Duan Ling Tian was at. The middle-aged man surveyed the crowd below him intently. He focused on their physical builds and their faces as though he was searching for someone.

"Let's go," Duan Ling Tian called out to the girls and brought them south. They were headed in the direction of the Mortal Continent.

Just as Duan Ling Tian flew away with the girls…

It's him!!'

In the sky, the middle-aged man who was hovering in the sky froze immediately when he saw Duan Ling Tian.

"You've finally shown yourself…" The middle-aged had been looking and waiting for the purple-clad young man to appear. This man was the one who murdered his son.

"Hm?" Naturally, Duan Ling Tian felt the gaze of the middle-aged on his back. He instantly turned around to look.

"Eh?" At first glance, Duan Ling Tian felt that the middle-aged man looked quite familiar. However, he was certain this was his first time seeing him.

I feel like I've met someone who looked similar to him before…' Duan Ling Tian thought to himself.

When Duan Ling Tian saw the middle-aged man's hateful gaze, he knew he must have offended him somehow.

His eyes… He's looking at me as though I've killed his children or wife…' It did not take long before Duan Ling Tian figured out why this man looked so familiar!

I knew it. He resembles the disciple from the Wandering Saint Palace who was at the Fifth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage whom I killed!"

Previously, he killed three disciples from the Wandering Saint Palace before he entered the ruin left behind by the Eminent Celestial. Among the three disciples, one of them resembled this middle-aged man.

That disciple from the Wandering Saint Palace who was at the Fifth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage… If I'm not mistaken, his name was He Sen Jie'

Based on Huang Wen Jing's words, He Sen lie's father is one of the elders in the Wandering Saint Palace. Not only that, but he was also not an ordinary elder. His cultivation base had already reached the Eighth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage!'

In just a blink of an eye, Duan Ling Tian managed to guess the identity of the middle-aged man.

Duan Ling Tian's eyes gleamed as he activated the Golden Crow's Wings and brought the girls with him. He flew at his fastest speed as though he was trying to flee. Naturally, his current speed had not been enhanced by the assist-type Divine Ability, the Elementary Devouring Tactic.
