War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens - Chapter 1588
Chapter 1588: Li Fei’s Danger
Senior Prophet!
Based on the way Duan Ru Feng addressed the old beggar, it seemed like this old beggar was none other than the famously elusive Old Prophet.
Perhaps, most of the Martial and Dao Cultivators in the Dao Martial Saint Land who had heard of the Old Prophet did not know he actually looked like this, completely different from the legendary Old Prophet they had imagined him to be. It was entirely possible that even if the Old Prophet stood in front of them and revealed his identity, they might not believe him. However, this old man really was the Old Prophet!
The Old Prophet looked at Duan Ru Feng with a smile as he asked, “Aren’t you curious why I didn’t allow you to enter the Greenwave Han Mansion and to have any contact with the people in Greenwave Han Mansion?”
Duan Ru Feng had, originally, wanted to go to Greenwave Han Mansion along with Ku Mi to bring his daughter-in-law, Li Fei, out. However, due to the Old Prophet’s Voice Transmission, he changed his mind immediately.
This was also why Ku Mi was baffled over Duan Ru Feng’s sudden decision. As it turned out, it was not Duan Ru Feng’s will but the Old Prophet’s will.
“I’m sure you have your reason for that, Senior,” Duan Ru Feng replied.
“In truth, my intention is more or less the same as the reason why you didn’t bring him with you when you left Cloud Continent. Perhaps, you might feel desperate to find him and bring him back to the Azure Cloud Mansion. However, this might not be the best for him. His achievement is not limited to only the Lower Province.” The Old Prophet smiled.
“It’s not limited to the Lower Province?” Duan Ru Feng was shocked. He, naturally, knew what the Old Prophet meant. There was no doubt he meant his son’s potential was not only limited to the Lower Province.
“All in all, you son is closely related to me. I don’t want to see him taking the wrong path. You only need to know this is better for him. As for the Azure Cloud Mansion, it’ll be his home no matter what. It’s not my intention to stop you and your wife from reuniting with him. However, I hope he’ll be able to find both of you on his own instead of the other way around. Do you understand?” The Old Prophet asked.
“Yes.” Duan Ru Feng nodded. He was shocked. He did not think his son’s innate talent was so great that even the Old Prophet thought so highly of him.
“Senior Prophet, you said earlier my son is closely related to you? May I know what kind of relationship do you mean by it?” Duan Ru Feng asked again.
“He’s Fog Rain while I’m Prophet,” the Old Prophet gave a short reply in response to Duan Ru Feng’s question. His reply only consisted of six words.
The moment his words left his mouth, he disappeared again, vanishing into thin air in front of Duan Ru Feng as though he was never there at all.
“He’s Fog Rain while I’m Prophet? What does it mean?” Duan Ru Feng was already used to the Old Prophet’s elusiveness so he was not too shocked.
“Looks like Tian’er’s fortuitous encounter is even greater than mine… Even the elusive Old Prophet actually took the initiative to come to me for his sake,” Duan Ru Feng mused.
Although he was the one who went seeking for the Old Prophet the first time, now that he thought about it, the Old Prophet had intentionally revealed his tracks so that he could find him. Moreover, even if he had been able to find him, the Old Prophet had to be willing to see him. Otherwise, he would not even have a chance to meet him at all.
At this moment, Duan Ru Feng realized it was because of his son he was able to meet the Old Prophet. However, he still had no idea how the Old Prophet was related to his son.
If Duan Ling Tian had heard the Old Prophet’s words, he would definitely be surprised. This was because after he obtained the Sovereign Heart Sword legacy from Sword Saint Feng Qing Yang, it was said in Sword Saint Feng Qing Yang’s message that he had become the only successor of the Fog Rain Progeny.
Before him, Sword Saint Feng Qing Yang was also a member of the Fog Rain Progeny in the previous generation.
To some extent, Sword Saint Feng Qing Yang could be considered as Duan Ling Tian’s master. Duan Ling Tian had also acknowledged him as his master in his heart.
Whether it was Sima from Cloud Continent or Fang Hui, the City Governor of Mound Hill City, he had only acknowledged them as his teacher, not master.
Although the word ‘Teacher’ and ‘Master’ might not have much difference, the difference was significant.
Fog Rain, Prophet.
If there was somebody who had heard of and knew the top-rate sect, the Seven Absolutes Sect, in the era long ago, these words would definitely appear in their minds when they heard these three words.
The First Absolute — Fog Rain!
The Second Absolute — Prophet!
The Fog Rain and Prophet were the first two sects of the Seven Absolutes Sect.
If the Fog Rain Progeny represented the ultimate martial strength in the Seven Absolutes Sect, then the Prophet Progeny represented the great wisdom of the Seven Absolutes Sect.
Fog Rain and Prophet were originally a combination of strength and wisdom, coupled with the remaining five absolutes, it allowed the Seven Absolutes Sect to dominate the world. In the era long ago, it was even greater than the three greatest sects in the Dao Martial Saint Land, completely suppressing them.
Naturally, in that era, the reason the Seven Absolutes Sect was so mighty was due to the then successor of the Fog Rain Progeny.
The Fog Rain’s successor at that time was none other than Sword Saint Feng Qing Yang!
In that era, Feng Qing Yang was the absolute man of honor. Perhaps, there were people who had not heard of the Seven Absolutes Sect, however, everyone had heard of Sword Saint Feng Qing Yang.
Due to the reason that the Seven Absolutes Sect had been inactive for too long, there was no longer any record left about the sect in the Azure Cloud Mansion’s archive.
Due to that reason, Duan Ru Feng was completely unaware of the existence of the Seven Absolutes Sect, let alone the first two Absolutes of the Seven Absolutes Sect were Fog Rain and Prophet.
If he had known about this, he would definitely understand the Old Prophet’s words.
…
Greenwave Han Mansion.
In a quiet and brightly lit room, a woman with an appearance that could topple a nation was rocking a cradle gently. Her pair of gentle eyes stared at the baby sleeping soundly in the cradle. She had a contented smile on her face.
However, her expression turned dim when a purple figure appeared in her mind.
“Bastard, we have a kid now… Our son is already born, do you even know that?” The woman muttered.
Based on the woman’s words, it was obvious she was Li Fei, one of Duan Ling Tian’s two fiancées.
“Ke’er… I wonder if she’s safe… If she’s safe, the child in her belly should’ve already been born as well, right?” When Li Fei thought of Ke’er, her eyes were filled with sorrow again.
She and Ke’er were like blood sisters. A calamity had suddenly fallen on them. Ever since then, she had been extremely worried about her.
Although it was still unclear who the baby sleeping in the cradle resembled, his dashing brows and eyes were similar to Duan Ling Tian.
He was still young. When he grew up, he would definitely resemble Duan Ling Tian more.
This was the son that Li Fei had given birth to for Duan Ling Tian.
As Li Fei watched the baby inside the cradle, her attention was completely focused on his eyes. For a moment, she was lost in her thoughts watching him.
If she had to pick, their child resembled him more than her.
At this moment, Li Fei was unaware that danger was creeping closer and closer to her.
A young man whose eyes were filled with hesitance said to a luxuriously dressed young man in front of him, “Young Master, are you really going to do it? Although Young Miss Xue Nai and the three little fellows are gone, Lord Qing Nu is still here. I’m afraid she’ll discover you before you even get near to her room.”
The luxuriously clad young man was none other than Han Jin Nian who had covetous thoughts toward Li Fei when she first arrived at the Greenwave Han Mansion. He was also the biological grandson of the only Supreme Elder in Greenwave Han Mansion.
“Hurmph! Do you think I’m brainless like you?” When Han Jin Nian heard his lackey’s words, he snorted coldly and said disdainfully, “Before we came, I’ve already asked Uncle Pei to send Qing Nu away. Now that she’s gone, that girl’s like meat on my chopping board. I can do whatever I want to her. It’s a pity she has already given birth. Otherwise, I would’ve been able to have a taste of a pregnant woman. Hurmph! It’s all because of that Han Xue Nai who actually protected her so well! I couldn’t find a chance at all… Finally, she and that three fellows had gone away! God is really on my side this time!”
As Han Jin Nian spoke, he brought his lackey with him as they snuck outside of Li Fei’s room.
“Alright, that’s enough. Go wait there. Otherwise, it would not leave a good impression on her,” Han Jin Nian told his lackey before heading toward Li Fei’s room.
The lackey responded and left while Han Jin Nian itched to directly open Li Fei’s room door.
Although the door to Li Fei’s room was closed, this was not a hindrance to Han Jin Nian at all. With just a raise of his hand, he pushed the door open.
Creak!
The door opened immediately without any resistance. Although the sound was not loud, it woke Li Fei up immediately, causing her to instantly put her guard up.
“It’s you!” After seeing the person who pushed the door open was Han Jin Nian, Li Fei’s face turned grave immediately. She scolded loudly, “What are you doing here?”
“Hey beautiful, can’t you tell why I’m here?” Han Jin Nian closed the door behind him as he chuckled. His eyes were filled with lust.
“Scram!” Li Fei continued to scolding, “If you don’t leave now, I’ll look for Senior Qing Nu.”
“Qing Nu? I’m afraid Qing Nu is currently occupied so you can just give up on her… ” Han Jin Nian chuckled as he slowly walked toward Li Fei.
Naturally, Li Fei knew the reason why Han Jin Nian was here. Colors immediately drained from her face. At this moment, she decided she would rather die than to let this scum get what he wanted.
However, her heart felt a tinge of pain when she thought of her newborn son.
“Son, please don’t blame me if I leave…” Li Fei had decided to commit suicide. Even if she died, she would not let Han Jin Nian obtain what he wanted.
However, at this moment, a voice rang in her ears. “Are you Li Fei? Is your fiancé Duan Ling Tian?”
Along with this voice, a figure suddenly appeared out of thin air in the room directly behind Han Jin Nian who was completely unaware.
It was a ghost-like skinny old man that was dressed in a grey robe, holding a cane in his hand.
