War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

Duan Ling Tian, an inner disciple of the Flying Dragon Sect, killed 100 Kings of Gods from the Tai Yi Sect on the King Battlefield in less than a year during the Imperial War.

When news spread about how he exchanged the identity tokens he obtained for war points in the War Point Hall, it shook both the Flying Dragon Sect and the Tai Yi Sect.

The Flying Dragon Sect was overjoyed while the Tai Yi Sect was gloomy.

The high-ranking officials related to the Kings of Gods who were killed by Duan Ling Tian were furious with Huang Yun after they learned that Huang Yun had angered Duan Ling Tian, and as a result, causing Duan Ling Tian to swear to kill 100 disciples of the Tai Yi Sect. However, since Huang Yun wasted no time in entering the Lord Battlefield in Tai Yi City after leaving Peace City, there was nothing they could do to him.

After Duan Ling Tian exchanged the identity tokens and his kills were recorded, the identity tokens of the disciples from the Tai Yi Sect were handed to the supreme elder guarding Tai Yi City by the elder on duty in the War Point Hall.

"Yu'er!"

The old man, who looked kind and amiable in the beginning, cried out when he saw his grandson's identity token among the 100 identity tokens.'Search newn0vel,0rg on google'? He found it hard to accept that his beloved grandson had perished on the King Battlefield.

After the elder from Peace City's War Point Hall left, the old man sent a message and left Tai Yi City.

"Senior brother, tell Long Xiang to leave the King Battlefield. It's pointless for him to stay there; Duan Ling Tian has already left. It's better if he comes out and challenges Duan Ling Tian to a life-or-death duel. If Duan Ling Tian refuses or if Long Xiang isn't confident, let's try to come to an agreement with the Flying Dragon Sect to ban Duan Ling Tian and Long Xiang from the King Battlefield."

Although the old man hated Duan Ling Tian, he knew it was impossible for him to seek revenge from Duan Ling Tian now. It would also be difficult for him to kill Duan Ling Tian outside of the Imperial Realm without being found out.

Although the old man loved his grandson, it was important to protect the Tai Yi Sect's interest as well. After all, the sect had nurtured him, and he had also guarded the sect for so many years. The young disciples were the future pillars of the sect so he had to consider their well-being now. If Duan Ling Tian continued to kill their disciples, the sect would quickly decline unless they could recruit more outstanding disciples.

For all these reasons, the old man was not overwhelmed by his anger and sorrow. He was still able to think clearly.

Soon enough, the old man received a reply.

"Let's hold a meeting to discuss this matter."

It did not take long before a meeting was held for the various high-ranking officials in the Tai Yi Sect.

The meeting hall was filled with Lords of Gods at this moment. Among them, there were advanced Lords of Gods.

Needless to say, the Sect Leader of the Tai Yi Sect was also present.

After the supreme elder, the old man whose grandson had died, voiced his suggestion, many people agreed with his suggestion.

"There's no doubt Duan Ling Tian and Ximen Long Xiang one-sidedly dominated the King Battlefield. Both of them will only continue to negatively affect the disciples from both sects if they're allowed to enter the King Battlefield. I agree that we should come to an agreement with the Flying Dragon Sect to ban Duan Ling Tian and Ximen Long Xiang from the King Battlefield."

"I agree."

"I agree as well."

Among the group of high-ranking officials present in the meeting hall, many of them had descendants and disciples who were killed by Duan Ling Tian on the King Battlefield. There were also many whose descendants and disciples were still alive on the King Battlefield. For this reason, many of them strongly agreed to ban Duan Ling Tian from the King Battlefield.

Soon enough, the topic turned to Duan Ling Tian.

"How can Duan Ling Tian be so strong? It's really hard to believe."

"He must have been hiding his strength."

"Isn't that obvious?"

"How cunning. I thought he was very strong before. Who knew he was still hiding his strength?"

"Get Ximen Long Xiang to leave the King Battlefield. Perhaps, we can ask for help from his twin sister, Ximen Yun. After all, he'd be able to sense if she was in danger."

In the end, the meeting only lasted less than half an hour.

After the meeting, only three people were left in the huge meeting hall. There was the Sect Leader of the Tai Yi Sect; Luo Qi Zhan, a Supreme Elder of the Tai Yi Sect; and a sage-like old man with a ruddy complexion.

Luo Qi Zhan, whose grandson had died, was among those who were against the Imperial War in the past. In his opinion, there was no need to declare the Imperial War because he believed that his senior brother's disciple, Ximen Long Xiang, would become an Emperor of Gods sooner or later. His opinion of the Imperial War only changed when he found out later through his senior brother that Ximen Long Xiang would be leaving the Tai Yi Sect soon. Moreover, there was also the sudden appearance of the prodigy, Duan Ling Tian, in the Flying Dragon Sect.

The Sect Leader of the Tai Yi Sect looked at the sage-like old man with a ruddy complexion and said respectfully, "Senior Granduncle, I'll have to trouble you to get Long Xiang to leave the King Battlefield."

The old man nodded before he left the meeting hall in just a flash.

Then, Luo Qi Zhan said with a sigh, "I don't understand why my senior brother agreed to Long Xiang leaving the sect. Even if our sect can't provide Long Xiang with the resources he needs, there's no rush, right?"

"Junior Granduncle, if I were in Senior Granduncle's shoes, I think I'd make the same decision as him," the Sect Leader of the Tai Yi Sect shook his head and said, "Ximen Long Xiang shouldn't be bound by our sect. With his talent, it's only a matter of time before he becomes an Emperor of Gods. However, if he continues to stay in our sect after becoming an Emperor of Gods, it'll only be harder and harder for him to survive the Heavenly Tribulations due to the lack of resources in our sect. Moreover, I think Senior Granduncle has higher hopes for Long Xiang. I think he expects Long Xiang to become a Supreme God."

Luo Qi Zhan's eyes widened in surprise.

'A Supreme God? Is that possible?'

…

At the Tai Yi Sect's estate.

In a remote and scenic valley that was shrouded in fog, which was created by Formations, all year round. This place was off-limits to most of the members of the Tai Yi Sect.

Swoosh!

At this moment, the sage-like old man with a ruddy complexion flew into the valley easily. No one stopped him at all. He came to a stop and hovered in the sky as he looked at a wooden cabin that stood in the valley.

At this moment, a girl, who looked to be about 16 or 17 years, sat outside of the wooden cabin in front of a stone table. She held a steaming cup of water with both her hands, and a faint smile could be seen on her face as she watched two small animals running around. She looked extremely frail as though a gust of wind could blow her away.

Swoosh!

The old man finally landed and looked at the girl with a gentle gaze.

The girl's beautiful eyes lit up as soon as she saw the old man. She called out excitedly, "Master!"

When the old man saw her struggling to her feet, he gently pushed her back down on the stone chair before he said, "Yun'er, I've already said there's no need for you to be so formal since you're weak."

After taking the seat across from the girl, the old man continued to say, "Is it too boring here?"

The girl shook her head. "No. Master, I was born with dead veins so I can't cultivate. It's amazing enough that I'm able to live until now. Why would I feel bored when I feel lucky just to be alive?"

The old man sighed. "There's a supreme-grade divine pill that can resurrect your dead vines and open up the cultivation path for you. I'm afraid I won't be able to obtain that pill. However, it's different for your brother. He has a chance of obtaining the pill for you."

The girl shook her head as she said, "Master, I've never thought about resurrecting my dead veins or cultivating. If it's possible, I'd rather my brother learn how to relax instead of cultivating tirelessly. I know he's only working so hard because of me." A hint of sorrow flashed in her eyes as she continued to say, "I know you're worried my death will affect my brother's cultivation and future."

The old man's expression turned grim immediately. "Don't mention this matter again."

However, when he saw the timid expression on the girl's face, his voice softened as he said, "Yun'er, I came to ask for your help this time. I need you to help me summon your brother out so I'll have to put you to sleep."

Before the girl could reply, the old man knocked her conscious and carried her into the bedroom before putting her down on the bed. Subsequently, he raised his hand, and a streak of light shot out and entered the girl's heart, causing her to tremble slightly.

With that, he left the wooden cabin and stood outside, looking in the direction of the entrance to the Imperial War Realm. He stood with his hands on his back, as though he was waiting for something or someone.

…

At the same time.

On the King Battlefield.

A handsome young man with a cold expression suddenly stopped moving. His expression turned grim as he clutched his chest in pain. "Yun'er!"

Following that, he flew away at lightning speed.

"Isn't that Senior Brother Ximen Long Xiang? I didn't know he entered the King Battlefield? I thought he'd already left our Tai Yi Sect!"

"It's really Senior Brother Ximen Long Xiang! His expression looked really bad!"

Many people at the exit of the King Battlefield looked at the young man curiously when they saw he was in a hurry. All of them wondered what or who could make the most outstanding prodigy in the Tai Yi Sect so anxious.
