Chapter 4668 Lei Hong Appears
Seeing how his master, Feng Qing Yang, feared Yu Xiao, his wife's second sister as though she was a fierce beast, Duan Ling Tian became even more curious. He could not help but ask, "Master, what's going on with you and her?"
Feng Qing Yang looked at Duan Ling Tian sternly and said, "Children shouldn't pry into adults' matters."
Then, Feng Qing Yang turned to the Ascending Clouds Sage and said, "After escorting my disciple and his two wives out of the capital of Distinct Province, please take me to the Misty Cloud Sect."
The Ascending Clouds Sage naturally agreed enthusiastically.
"Master, even if I don't say anything, I'm sure Senior Aunt Yu Xiao will find out that we've reunited from someone else. There are many from the Myriad Worlds and the Outer Boundary who have heard about us and are making their way to the Duan Residence in the Distinct Province to seek refuge. At that time, Senior Aunt Yu Xiao will definitely find out about this," Duan Ling Tian said helplessly. He did not want his master to think that he was the one who leaked the news when Yu Xiao found out about the matter later.
"It'll be fine as long as you don't tell her that I'm at the Misty Cloud Sect," Feng Qing Yang shook his head and said, "Only a few people know that I'll be going to the Misty Cloud Sect. If you don't mention it, she won't find out. After you deal with your affairs, find me at the Misty Cloud Sect. We'll depart immediately for the Endless Sword Domain. That place is a paradise for sword cultivators like us. I'm certain you'll find the trip worthwhile."
Duan Ling Tian became even more curious about the Endless Domain after listening to his master's words. He planned to settle Ke'er and Huan'er down and spend a few days with them and his parents before he looked for his master at the Misty Cloud Sect. After that, they would leave the Surging River Divine Kingdom for the Endless Sword Domain.
Not long after, Duan Ling Tian and the others arrived at the Distinct Province. After Feng Qing Yang left with the Ascending Clouds Sage, Duan Ling Tian returned to the Duan Residence with his two wives.
When Duan Ling Tian arrived, he went to a courtyard to inform his parents of his return. When he saw another figure in the courtyard, his heart could not help but tremble.
The figure, who stood next to his parents, belonged to a beautiful young woman. She was none other than Duan Si Ling, Ke'er and Duan Ling Tian's daughter.
At the same time, Ke'er, who was standing next to him, rushed out as tears streamed down her face.
"Si Ling!"
Duan Ling Tian did not expect to see his daughter so soon after he returned. However, he also knew that his daughter must have been nearby when she heard the news about his battle with Hong Dong Chuan and made her way to the Duan Residence in the Distinct Province immediately.
"Junior Nephew Duan, where's my brother-in-law?" Yu Xiao asked bluntly, "I heard that you fought Hong Dong Chuan in the capital of the Surging River Divine Kingdom and that my brother-in-law went to watch. I heard he's already a level-eight Dao Establishment powerhouse. Did he come back with you?"
Duan Ling Tian was already prepared for Yu Xiao's question so he was not fl.u.s.tered. He shook his head immediately and said, "No."
Yu Xiao frowned. A hint of disappointment could be seen on her youthful face as she muttered, "He's without roots in this unfamiliar world. Since he has found you, why didn't he come back with you?"
"My master wants to find his wife," Duan Ling Tian replied smoothly. He had also thought about this answer in advance.
Yu Xiao fell silent upon hearing this. After a moment, she bade farewell to Duan Ling Tian and left, looking a little crestfallen.
After Yu Xiao left, Feng Tian Wu whispered, "Brother Tian, did you see Senior Aunt Yu's reaction? I have a feeling that she likes your master."
In matters of the heart, women were much more sensitive than men.
"You think so?" Duan Ling Tian's eyes widened in surprise and disbelief. Then, he recalled how frightened his master seemed when he mentioned Yu Xiao. He thought that perhaps it was possible that Yu Xiao liked his master. He made a note to ask his master about this when they met again.
In an inn in the capital of the Distinct Province.
A bald and burly man sat in a room. He frowned as he listened to the report from his subordinate.
"Duan Ling Tian returned so quickly?"
If Duan Ling Tian were present, he would be able to identify the other party quickly. The other party was none other than Lei Hong, one of the strongest people in the Sun Bright World, one of the Three Upper Worlds, who tried to kill him.
Previously, after arriving at the Divine Land, Duan Ling Tian had briefly thought about Lei Hong. He felt that someone like Lei Hong would not miss out on an opportunity to grow stronger and concluded that Lei Hong must have entered the Heaven Traversing PaG.o.da. As such, he a.s.sumed that Lei Hong must have died in the paG.o.da and became 'nourishment' for the owner of the Life Creation Chart who cultivated the Sacrificial Dao.
Clearly, Duan Ling Tian was greatly mistaken. Lei Hong did not enter the Heaven Traversing PaG.o.da at all. Otherwise, he would not be here.
