Chapter 4075: Rejection

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

When the people from the Pure Yang Sect returned to the Eastern Ridge Mansion, they did not separate into two groups like when they came. Instead, all of them boarded Liu Feng Gus flying s.h.i.+p. It was a little crowded, but there was still enough s.p.a.ce for everyone to walk around.

Liu Feng Gu was the one who suggested everyone travel in one flying s.h.i.+p. Since many Emperors of G.o.ds had gathered, it was best to stick together even if they were not the target of those Emperors of G.o.ds.

Ye Chen Feng did not have any objections. The suggestion benefited him, after all. He would not have to pilot the flying s.h.i.+p and keep a constant eye on their surroundings. He was stronger than Liu Feng Gu, but when it came to surveilling their surroundings with their Divine Consciousnesses, their abilities were about the same.

A few days later.

!!

I finally have some peace and quiet, Duan Ling Tian thought to himself when he finally had time alone.

After starting their journey back to the Pure Yang Sect, Duan Ling Tian was still receiving Voice Transmission. Many of them were from the young disciples of the Pure Yang Sect, who wanted to speak to him regardless if they were familiar with him or not. They had been very polite as well so it made it harder for him to ignore them. In the end, he responded to them patiently one after another.

Apart from Yang Qian Ye, all of the young disciples from the Pure Yang Sect present had congratulated Duan Ling Tian. Among those who congratulated him, there were a few who were usually arrogant, and it was obvious from their voices that they were unwilling and forced to speak to him.

It was not difficult for Duan Ling Tian to guess that these people were likely ordered by their elders to build a good relations.h.i.+p with him. After all, in their elders eyes, he was incomparably outstanding after winning the Seven Mansions Feast despite being younger than 3,000 years old. In their opinion, there were only advantages and no disadvantages to befriending him.

At this time, Zhen Ping Fan said to Duan Ling Tian through Voice Transmission, Duan Ling Tian, youve performed exceptionally well this time. Over the past few days, my father and my junior brother, the Sect Leader of the Pure Yang Sect, had called for two meetings between the decision-makers. Theyve unanimously decided to reward you greatly to show appreciation for your dedication to the Pure Yang Sect. Not only will the sect give you some treasures from the treasury, but theyll also send people out to collect rare resources thatll be useful to you. The sect isnt a sect that will take advantage of its disciples. Since you won four slots for the sect to enter the Secret Holy Realm, the sect will definitely reward you handsomely.

This was good news to Duan Ling Tian even if he had already expected it. He would find it strange instead if the Pure Yang Sect did not reward him for ranking first in the Seven Mansions Feast. If the sect was so tactless, it would not survive until today.

Apart from that, Duan Ling Tian had a good impression of Ye Chen Fengs character. He could see that Ye Chen Feng had a deep sense of belonging to the Pure Yang Sect. Otherwise, Ye Chen Feng would not stay in the sect until now. Perhaps, Ye Chen Feng might not receive special treatment if he joined a strong supreme-rank force, which was only second to prime supreme-rank forces, Ye Chen Feng would definitely be treated like an honored guest in ordinary supreme-rank forces.

In short, in Duan Ling Tians opinion, for Ye Chen Feng to stay in the Pure Yang Sect for so long, at the very least, the Pure Yang Sect could not be bad.

The Pure Yang Sects journey back from the Profound Jade Mansion was unsurprisingly smooth. It would be strange if something had happened. Under normal circ.u.mstances, no one would stop an emperor-grade flying s.h.i.+p for no good reason.

However, after they left the Profound Jade Mansions territory, the flying s.h.i.+p suddenly came to a stop.

Everyone instantly turned to look at Liu Feng Gu in unison since he was the one piloting the s.h.i.+p.

At this time, someone looked at the Mirror Image in the flying s.h.i.+p and exclaimed, Someones up ahead!

Then, an elder said with a frown, This person looks somewhat familiar

Liu Feng Gu said, Its Lin Dong Lai, the elder from the Profound Jade Mansions Howling Flames Sect.

Everyone was familiar with Lin Dong Lais name. However, they were puzzled as to why Lin Dong Lai was here.

While everyone was wondering about Lin Dong Lais purpose, his voice rang from outside the flying s.h.i.+p. Although he was standing a distance away, his voice resonated clearly in the flying s.h.i.+p.

Elder Ye, Elder Liu, I bear no ill intention. I only want to say a few words to Duan Ling Tian on behalf of the supreme-rank clan, the Lin clan.

When everyone heard the words Duan Ling Tian, supreme-rank clan, and Lin clan, they instinctively turned to look at Duan Ling Tian. As it turned out, Lin Dong Lai was here to speak to Duan Ling Tian. Moreover, he was doing it on behalf of the supreme-rank clan, the Lin clan, not the Profound Jade Mansions Howling Flames Sect.

Liu Feng Gu took the lead and disembarked from the flying s.h.i.+p. He said, Elder Lin. Although Ive heard about it, I really didnt expect you to be from the Lin clan. Why did a descendant of a supreme-rank clan join an emperor-rank sect like the Howling Flames Sect?

Lin Dong Lai said in a friendly manner, Elder Liu, its a long story. Its not appropriate to get into it here. If youre interested, please visit the Howling Flames Sect, and Ill tell you about my past. Please rest a.s.sured. I only came to speak to Duan Ling Tian and have no other intentions. As for the reason, Im sure you already know. Although I dont think I have a high chance of success, I still have to complete my task. I hope you understand, Elder Liu.

Liu Feng Gu had no reason to reject Lin Dong Lai so he said, I dont have any objections to that. As long as Elder Ye agrees, there wont be a problem.

In Liu Feng Gus opinion, Duan Ling Tian, a member of the Pure Yang Sects Cloud Peak faction, had a relatively good relations.h.i.+p with Ye Chen Feng. It was most appropriate to let Ye Chen Feng decide on this matter. Moreover, he did not want to make the decision lest he offended both parties. Now that it had been confirmed that Lin Dong Lai was from the supreme-rank Lin clan, there were even fewer reasons for him to offend Lin Dong Lai.

As soon as Liu Feng Gus voice fell, Lin Dong Lai s.h.i.+fted his gaze to the flying s.h.i.+p.

In the next moment, Ye Chen Feng said lazily, Go and speak to Elder Lin.

Although Ye Chen Feng did not specify who he was speaking to, everyone knew the words were directed at Duan Ling Tian.

Duan Ling Tian nodded before he left the flying s.h.i.+p. In just a moment, he landed next to Liu Feng Gu and looked at Lin Dong Lai. He cupped his fists together briefly and greeted Lin Dong Lai, Elder Lin.

Lin Dong Lai smiled widely and said, Duan Ling Tian, first of all, Id like to congratulate you on ranking first in the Sevens Mansions Feast. It really came as a surprise.

Duan Ling Tian smiled and said modestly, Elder Lin, thank you. Lin Yuan didnt challenge me. If he did, I might not necessarily win first place.

Lin Dong Lai was rendered momentarily speechless by these words. After a moment, he chuckled and said, Duan Ling Tian, theres no need to be modest. Although Lin Yuan is very strong, hes no match for you.

What a joke!

Lin Yuan was no match for w.a.n.g Xiong, and w.a.n.g Xiong was defeated by Duan Ling Tian. As such, even if Lin Yuan challenged Duan Ling Tian, Lin Yuan would only be defeated.

After that, Lin Dong Lais expression turned slightly serious as he said directly, I came to look for you this time because Ive been entrusted with a task. I came on behalf of the Lin clan in the Divine Wood Mansion to invite you to join the Lin clan. If you agree, the benefits given to you will be twice what the direct descendants receive. Moreover, the clan will give you a welcome gift as well. The clan guarantees that youll be satisfied with the gift. As for what it is, if you accept the invitation, I can tell you about it first. Otherwise, Im afraid I can say anything about it.

Lin Dong Lai sounded rather mysterious when speaking about the welcome gift from the supreme-rank Lin clan.

Previously, Duan Ling Tian had heard Zhen Ping Fan mention the supreme-rank Lin clan. Zhen Ping Fan had suspected earlier that Lin Yuan, who represented the Howling Flames Sect in the Seven Mansions Feast, came from the Lin clan in the Divine Wood Mansion. Lin Dong Lais words today confirmed Zhen Ping Fans suspicion.

In fact, Zhen Ping Fan was not the only one who suspected this. Many people who knew about the supreme-rank Lin clan in the Divine Wood Mansion had long suspected that Lin Yuan and Lin Dong Lai were from the supreme-rank Lin clan.

Duan Ling Tian smiled slightly and politely rejected Lin Dong Lai. Elder Lin, thank you for your invitation, but I have no intention of leaving the Pure Yang Sect just yet.

In fact, it was just an excuse when Duan Ling Tian said he had no plans to leave the Pure Yang Sect for the time being, and he was sure Lin Dong Lai knew this as well.

Since thats the case, I wont say more, Lin Dong Lai said with a sigh. However, based on his reaction, it was clear he had already expected this. Then, he looked up and said, Elder Liu, Elder Ye, farewell.

After bidding farewell to Liu Feng Gu and Ye Chen Feng, Lin Dong Lai flew away in the direction of the Profound Jade Mansion, which the entourage from the Pure Yang Sect had come from, without another word.
