War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens - Chapter 4554
4554 From Now On, We’ll Never Be Separated Again
This was a world where the strong were revered after all.
In the past, before Duan Ling Tian’s breakthrough, he was very deferential in front of the supreme powerhouses. At that time, he was very cautious and did not even dare to breathe loudly, worried about offending them. After all, they could kill him with just a flick of their fingers.
However, Duan Ling Tian was no longer the same person from before. He now stood at the peak after becoming the second level-seven supreme powerhouse and the strongest person in the Myriad Worlds and the Outer Boundary after the gap in history just like his master. In fact, his potential to grow was even higher than that of Feng Qing Yang.
Although Feng Qing Yang’s innate talent and comprehension skills were very high as well, the legacy he inherited from the Sword of Time had helped him greatly as well during his journey. The Sword of Time, even at his strongest, did not reach the seventh stage. As such, it was very amazing that Feng Qing Yang was able to become a level-seven supreme powerhouse with the help of the legacy.
As for Duan Ling Tian, he inherited the memories of the Void Elder; one the few strongest supreme powerhouses before the gap in history. With that, it was only natural that it was only a matter of time before he became as strong as the Void Elder.
!!
Although Duan Ling Tian’s achievements now were amazing in the eyes of others, compared to the Void Elder, this was just the beginning.
At this time, Duan Ling Tian greeted Xiao Mu Bai and the others before he said, “Everyone, I have matters to attend to so I’ll take my leave first. We’ll meet again in the future when I have time.”
After saying that, Duan Ling Tian vanished into thin air, causing the others to inhale sharply.
“A level-seven supreme powerhouse’s speed is truly terrifying!”
“He’s really powerful!”
“Lord Feng didn’t show his speed when he returned previously. Nonetheless, there’s no doubt he’s just as powerful. After all, no one is able to enter the Heaven Traversing Pagoda yet…”
…
In just a short time, Duan Ling Tian had already arrived in the Divine Offering Land’s Xia clan. He appeared silently in a courtyard in the Xia clan’s estate.
“Who is it?”
Duan Ling Tian’s sudden appearance alarmed the maids in the courtyard. However, when they saw him, joyful expressions appeared on their faces immediately. They quickly bowed at him respectfully.
“It’s the young master!”
“The young master is back!”
These were Ke’er’s maids who served Ke’er in the past. They had been with her for many years, and as such, they easily recognized Duan Ling Tian.
Duan Ling Tian nodded at the maids and asked, “Did someone come to treat Ke’er before this?”
The maids nodded.
Warmth suffused Duan Ling Tian’s heart immediately. As expected, his master returned to save Ke’er as soon as his master became a level-seven supreme powerhouse.
Following that, Duan Ling Tian entered the room. He extended his Divine Consciousness immediately and checked Ke’er’s condition. Indeed, the soul imprisonment technique was gone. However, her soul was still unstable. This was not surprising since her soul had been imprisoned and injured by the technique for so many years. Her soul would heal, but it would take time.
Duan Ling Tian stood at the side of the bed, and his gaze was tender as he looked at the unconscious Ke’er. He reached out and held her hand as he said, “Ke’er, from now on, no one can hurt you anymore. Don’t worry…”
Duan Ling Tian crouched down and looked at his beautiful wife in a daze; he did not return to his senses for a long time. He was unaware that Xia Yu and Xia Jie, the Clan Leader and the Third Master of the Xia clan respectively, had arrived and were standing at the door.
Xia Jie’s expression was one of relief while Xiao Yu wore a complicated expression on his face. Once upon a time, Xia Yu had disliked his son-in-law who came from a small place. It was only when he saw the other party’s amazing talent and strength and his daughter’s determination that he slowly came to accept the other party. Now, the son-in-law whom he looked down on in the past had risen so high that he had to look up at his son-in-law. Even the ancestor of the Xia clan, the most powerful person in the clan, could not withstand a single move from his son-in-law now.
Xia Yu sighed inwardly. ‘Xue’er, your eyes are more discerning than those of your father.’
Xia Yu and Xia Jie continued to wait silently. They did not dare to disturb Duan Ling Tian and could only wait for him.
In fact, Duan Ling Tian had already discovered the duo’s presence, but he did not pay them any attention at all. After all, they were no threat to him. Even if they were, with his current strength, he had no need to be afraid at all.
Three hours passed before Duan Ling Tian finally rose to his feet and turned around to face the two people standing at the door.
“Third Uncle,” Duan Ling Tian said to Xia Jie with a smile. He respected Xia Jie sincerely since Xia Jie had helped him in the past. Then, he turned to Xia Yu and said expressionlessly, “Clan Leader Xia.”
Duan Ling Tian continued to address Xia Yu as ‘Clan Leader Xia’. He did not plan to change the way he addressed Xia Yu until Ke’er woke up. He would follow Ke’er’s wish after that.
Xia Yu was also aware of this. He only smiled wryly and did not say anything.
On the other hand, Xia Jie chuckled and said, “I didn’t expect you to grow so strong, kid! Your achievement is beyond my wildest dreams!”
In Xia Jie’s eyes, it was already amazing for one to become a supreme powerhouse, let alone become one of the two strongest supreme powerhouses in the world. Even in the history of the Xia clan, the strongest supreme powerhouse was only a level-four supreme powerhouse.
“Third Uncle, regardless of my achievements, I’m still your junior; your nephew-in-law,” Duan Ling Tian said.
Xia Jie laughed and said happily, “That’s right. If you dare to be arrogant, I’ll tell Ning Xue to teach you a lesson when she wakes up.”
Duan Ling Tian chatted with Xia Jie for a few more moments before he said, “Third Uncle, I have something to attend to so I’ll take my leave first. I’ll return with Ke’er to see you when I’m done.”
After that, Duan Ling Tian placed Ke’er in his Little World and left the Xia clan.
Duan Ling Tian’s Little World was thriving now. The Divine Tree of Life glowed with a soft light, and the Little World was filled with vitality energy. Moreover, with the presence of the World Cleansing Divine Water, the Little World also had an inexhaustible source of water.
“Ke’er, from now on, we’ll never be separated again…”
In the past, Duan Ling Tian did not dare to let Ke’er stay in his Little World because he was worried that he would put her in danger. However, he did not have such concerns now. Currently, as long as heaven could not attack him directly, there was no one in the world who could kill him.
Moreover, with his master guarding the Heaven Traversing Pagoda, it was unlikely that another level-seven supreme powerhouse would be born.
When Duan Ling Tian left the God Defying World, his eyes shone with killing intent as he muttered to himself, “Next, I’ll go to the Sacred Lightning Realm in the Outer Boundary… Sister Wei, I’m finally going to avenge you…”
