War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

"However, I'm sure they also expect you to return and seek revenge," Leng Jing said worriedly through Voice Transmission, "It's possible that they'd taken a detour. Based on the direction of their flying ship previously, they should be on their way to the Sacred Wind Realm. If we go to the Sacred Wind Realm from here, I'm afraid it'll be difficult for us to find them…"

Upon hearing these words, Zhong Yue smiled indifferently and said, "You don't have to worry about this. Haven't you realized that the man following us earlier isn't around?"

Leng Jing instinctively turned to look back before he asked, surprised and relieved, "You sent him to follow them? Good, this means we'll be able to find them." However, after a moment, he asked, "He won't be discovered, right?"

"Rest assured," Zhong Yue said confidently, "He comprehends the law of earth. Previously, he watched undetected as my junior brother was killed. They did not sense him at all at that time, and they won't be able to sense him as well this time. It's due to this talent of his that my junior brother recruited him. Apart from that, I also promised that if he handles this matter well, I'll bring him to the Zhong clan and make him an outer disciple."

After listening to these words, Leng Jing felt completely at ease.

…

While Tan Xiu Teng piloted the flying ship, Duan Ling Tian and Hu Fei Yan closed their eyes and cultivated. Although the flying ship took many detours and flew in various different directions, the duo was not bothered at all. After all, it would only take an extra ten or fifteen days for them to reach the Sacred Wind Realm. Even if it took a few more months or a year, the duo still would not be bothered.

…

At the same time, the disheveled middle-aged man, who was tailing the flying ship, could not help but curse inwardly, 'Damn it! You've already taken a detour. Is it necessary to change directions so many times? The person piloting the ship should be the person who killed the leader, right?'

Although the middle-aged man was very good at remaining hidden thanks to his law of earth, it was not without limit. Although the consumption speed was not high, he still had to expend energy to keep up with them while he remained hidden.

After a moment, a joyful expression appeared on the middle-aged man's face as he thought to himself, 'Fortunately, I broke through the realm of advanced Supreme Gods not long ago. Otherwise, I don't think I'll be able to keep this up.'

…

Tan Xiu Teng, who was piloting the flying ship, was naturally unaware of the middle-aged man's presence. He continued moving in different directions, and during this time, he encountered a few groups of bandits as well. He did not hesitate and quickly chased them away or killed them. He did not pursue those who managed to escape, worried that it would draw the attention of people from the Zhong clan.

The Zhong clan was very famous in the Peaceful Might Realm. Although it was not as strong as the Divine Gateway's Linghu clan, the clan was still only second to top forces like the Linghu clan in the Peaceful Might Realm.

'Although Zhong Yue left earlier, he was clearly unwilling and dissatisfied. I'm sure that after parting ways with Miss Linghu, he'll chase after us… If he and the people from the Zhong clan find us, I'll definitely die. Although they might not do anything to the young master and Deputy Commander Hu due to their backgrounds, it won't stop them from making a move against me. I'm afraid that even if the young master wants to protect me, he'll be helpless…'

Tan Xiu Teng was sure about this. As such, he piloted the flying ship at top speed and frequently changed directions. In fact, at this time, the flying ship was rather far from the Sacred Wind Realm.

'Maybe we shouldn't go to the Sacred Wind Realm… If we continue in this direction a little longer, it won't be long before the distance to the Sacred Wind Realm is similar to the distance to the Sacred Lightning Realm…' Tan Xiu Teng thought to himself.

Tan Xiu Teng naturally did not dare to make decisions on his own. He looked at Duan Ling Tian and Hu Fei Yan, who were cultivating with their eyes closed, for a moment before he finally made up his mind.

'I'll wait until the distance to the Sacred Wind Realm and the Sacred Lightning Realm is about the same before I ask the young master if we should go to the Sacred Wind Realm or the Sacred Lightning Realm…'

…

The flying ship continued forth. During the journey, there were still groups of bandits that stopped the flying ship, and Tan Xiu Teng drove them away or killed them as usual.

Ten days had passed when Tan Xiu Teng finally began to let his guard down.

'It's been ten days, but the people from the Zhong clan still haven't shown up. It should be impossible for them to find us now, right? They've probably gone in the wrong direction, hoping to intercept us… Fortunately, I made many detours,' Tan Xiu Teng thought to himself, feeling both happy and hopeful.

Alas, these feelings did not last long.

Five days later, more than a dozen people blocked the path of the flying ship.

Initially, Tan Xiu Teng assumed they were just bandits, but when the flying ship drew closer and he saw the two people standing in the lead, he was in shock and disbelief.

'How's this possible?! How did they find us? Did they use some tracking technique? No, that's impossible. If they had used a tracking technique, the young master and Deputy Commander Hu would've noticed it…'

The two people standing in the lead were none other than Zhong Yue, the Young Master of Mount Tai's Zhong clan and Leng Jing, the prodigy from the Winter Land's Leng clan.

Frightened, Tan Xiu Teng hurriedly woke Duan Ling Tian and Hu Fei Yan up after he regained his senses. The situation was no longer under his control.

"Young master! Deputy Commander Hu!"

Tan Xiu Teng did not even need to probe them to know that the three people standing in the second row behind Zhong Yue and Leng Jing were almost comparable to peerless top advanced Supreme Gods while those ten people standing in the third row were all comparable to him at least. He was completely helpless at this moment. He had no doubts that as soon as he left the flying ship, he would be killed immediately.

At this time, Hu Fei Yan frowned slightly and glanced at Tan Xiu Teng as she asked, "Have we arrived at the Sacred Wind Realm?"

On the contrary, Duan Ling Tian was not confused like Hu Fei Yan. When he opened his eyes, he looked at the Mirror Image at the side of the flying ship. Then, he muttered under his breath, "Zhong Yue from the Zhong clan and Leng Jing from the Leng clan are here. Seeing the people they brought with them, it seems like they came prepared. Miss Linghu isn't here so they must have gathered people and came after us after they parted ways with her."

After that, Duan Ling Tian looked askance at Tan Xiu Teng. He found it strange that those people found them even though Tan Xiu Teng had taken so many detours.

Tan Xiu Teng naturally understood Duan Ling Tian's thoughts after he saw the expression on Duan Ling Tian's face. He smiled wryly and said, "Young master, I was already very careful. I changed directions more than 100 times. I didn't expect that they were still able to find us."

At this time, Tan Xiu Teng was the most afraid. Even the wry smile on his face had to be forced.
