Chapter 3870: Thank You, Father-In-Law

Regardless, my path to becoming a Lord of G.o.ds is much easier compared to others.

After becoming a Lord of G.o.ds, the cultivation journey would become 100 times harder. Duan Ling Tian only spent a short time as King of G.o.ds before he became a Lord of G.o.ds. He knew he was really lucky. Going forward, it would be considered amazing if he took less than 100 years to become an Emperor of G.o.ds. Fortunately, he had obtained various treasures in the Divine Sanctuary left behind by Emperor of G.o.ds Qin Wu that would help with his cultivation after becoming a Lord of G.o.ds.

Duan Ling Tian sincerely wanted to thank Long Qing Chong for helping him with Kuang Tian Zhengs matter, but since Long Qing Chong had refused to see him, he did not insist as well. At this time, he was very intrigued by the reward that Long Qing Chong mentioned if he was able to kill an Underworld Elder of the Tai Yi Sect. He had no doubt the reward would be extraordinary.

Duan Ling Tian sighed. However, based on my current strength, itd be difficult for me to kill an Underworld Elder. In any case, I still have to enter the Lord Battlefield. It shouldnt be difficult for me to kill ordinary rudimentary Lords of G.o.ds. Ill try to acc.u.mulate more war points so I can exchange them for the things I need. Hopefully, Ill be able to acc.u.mulate enough war points to exchange for all the things I need.

After bidding farewell to the Vice Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall, as Duan Ling Tian walked out of the hall and made his way to the Imperial War Realm, the three White Dragon Elders and the others in the hall looked at Duan Ling Tian with a hint of respect in their eyes. With todays event, there was no doubt that everyone in the Flying Dragon Sect would no longer treat Duan Ling Tian as an ordinary inner disciple. After all, the punishment meted out by the Law Enforcement Hall today showed how special Duan Ling Tian was. This kind of punishment would not be possible if it were another inner disciple who was involved.

After Duan Ling Tian entered the Imperial War Realm for the second time, news of Kuang Tian Zheng attempting to kill Duan Ling Tian spread throughout the Flying Dragon Sect like a wildfire.

Elder Kuang Tian Zheng tried to kill Duan Ling Tian?

What kind of enmity did they have between them that forced Kuang Tian Zheng to try to kill Duan Ling Tian in the sects estate?

Rumor has it that Duan Ling Tian was responsible for Chu Hans death. Chu Han is Elder Kuangs youngest direct disciple. I heard about this from my friend whos in the 10,000 Devils faction.

Everyone was shocked by the news. They were further shocked when they found that Duan Ling Tian survived the a.s.sa.s.sination attempt.

Elder Kuang was one of the strongest inner elders! How could he fail to kill a King of G.o.ds?

Although Duan Ling Tian is the strongest King of G.o.ds, Elder Kuang, a Lord of G.o.ds, should have been able to kill Duan Ling Tian with just a strike, right?

I wonder if Elder Kuang made a mistake because he was too rash?

It did not take long before another two pieces of news that were even more shocking spread.

Duan Ling Tian is now a Lord of G.o.ds?!

Kuang Tian Zheng used his bloodline power that could kill most rudimentary Lords of G.o.ds, and yet, he still failed to kill Duan Ling Tian!

The Law Enforcement Hall executed Kuang Tian Zheng immediately?!

Thats not too surprising! Whats shocking is that all of Kuang Tian Zhengs blood relatives and disciples, except for Zhong Chan, have been sentenced to death!

Perhaps, out of the various news they received, they were most shocked when they found all of Kuang Tian Zhengs relatives and disciples, except for Zhong Can, were implicated and also sentenced to death.

I heard that Kuang Tian Zhengs relatives and disciples will be executed tomorrow

Zhong Can wouldnt have been able to avoid this disaster if he werent Vice Sect Leader Xues son-in-law!

Heavens! The sect is determined to get rid of those whore connected to Kuang Tian Zheng!

The Law Enforcement Hall is very fair, and they dont punish indiscriminately. Perhaps, all those people also helped Kuang Tian Zheng to plot Duan Ling Tians death.

Most people thought the Law Enforcement Halls punishment was fair. Except for those in the know, most people were unaware that the punishment was so severe due to Duan Ling Tians special status. Such a serious punishment could only be ordered by the Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall, who was also a Golden Dragon Elder, or the Sect Leader of the Flying Dragon Sect.

In a remote valley in the Flying Dragon Sects estate.

A terrified young man kneeled in front of a middle-aged man.

A young and beautiful woman stood next to the kneeling young man and looked at the middle-aged man as she said, throwing a tantrum, Father, please help Zhong Can save his seniors, juniors, and his masters relatives!

The kneeling young man was none other than Zhong Can, and the beautiful young woman was his wife, who was also Xue Ming Zhis daughter. Needless to say, the middle-aged man was none other than Xue Ming Zhi, one of the Vice Sect Leaders of the Flying Dragon Sect.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

Xue Ming Zhi tapped his fingers on the stone table he was sitting in front of. A hint of helplessness could be seen in his eyes, and his expression was grim. Silence descended suddenly when he suddenly stopped tapping his fingers. Finally, he looked at Zhong Can, who was kneeling in front of him, and said in a low voice, Before your master made his move, I promised him to look after his relatives and disciples if he died.

Zhong Cans eyes lit up immediately upon hearing these words. However, they dimmed again when he heard Xue Ming Zhis next words.

However, theres nothing I can do to save them now.

Zhong Cans expression changed drastically, and his wife frowned slightly.

I really cant save them. Ive investigated the matter. The order came from the sect leader. With this, you should understand why theres nothing I can do, Xue Ming Zhi said.

An expression of disbelief appeared on Zhong Cans face as he asked, Its the sect leaders order? H-hows this possible?

Xue Ming Zhi shook his head. I couldnt believe it as well when I first heard about it. However, Ive investigated it, and its true. The sect leader highly values Duan Ling Tian due to Duan Ling Tians talent in cultivation and alchemy. Even if a prodigy like Duan Ling Tian leaves the Flying Dragon Sect in the future, the sect will still benefit greatly from him. Its not surprising that the sect leader wants to maintain a good relations.h.i.+p with him. Then, he looked at Zhong Can meaningfully before he continued to say, If you werent my son-in-law, you wouldnt have been spared. Do you understand?

After a brief moment of silence, Zhong Can nodded and said, I understand. Then, killing intent surged in his eyes as he rose to his feet and asked, Father-in-law, whats your plan next?

Zhong Can naturally knew his father-in-law would not let the matter go so easily unless he reconciled with Duan Ling Tian. However, at this point, reconciliation was absolutely impossible.

However, Zhong Cans wife did not seem to know her father as well as her husband did. She said, Father, you cant let him off! Elder Kuang was like a father to Zhong Can! You have to avenge him!

Xue Ming Zhi looked at his daughter and sighed. You shouldnt get involved in this matter.

The woman pursed her lips and did not say anything.

Xue Ming Zhi turned to Zhong Can and said, I have my plan. Theres nothing you can do to help so I wont explain it to you. Go home and wait for my news. Perhaps, youll receive news of Duan Ling Tians death after you emerge from closed-door cultivation.

Zhong Can and his wifes expressions brightened upon hearing Xue Ming Zhis words.

Zhong Can fell to his knees and kowtowed as he said, Thank you, father-in-law!

Zhong Cans wife smiled brightly as she said, Thank you, father!

Alright, leave, Xue Ming Zhi said, dismissing the duo.

Following that, Zhong Can brought his wife away from Xue Ming Zhis cultivation ground.
