Chapter 2267 - Kill Domineeringly! 

Chapter 2267 Kill Domineeringly! 

Although Gan Ru Yan was born in a clan, she was not close to any of the clan members. She was born in the Fire Worship Sect along with her sister. At that time, her sister was declared as the Saint Girl of Fire Worship Sect while she was accepted as a disciple by her master. Throughout these years, apart from her master, her world only consisted of cultivation. She hardly had any interactions with the Fire Worship Sect disciples. She only felt familial love when she went to the Lower Province and found her sister. When her sister gave birth to a child, her love extended to the child as well and she loved her niece like a daughter.

“Si Ling…” Although Gan Ru Yan knew she could not compete with the bond between a father and a daughter, she could not help but feel upset. It felt as though Si Ling no longer needed her now.

At this moment, Ke’er looked at Duan Si Ling and said, “Si Ling, play with your aunt for now… There’s something I need to talk to your father about.”

Duan Si Ling reluctantly left Duan Ling Tian’s arms and watched as her father and mother entered a room.

A child’s mind was simple. It did not take long before Duan Si Ling’s attention went back to Gan Ru Yan after her parents had left her sight. “Auntie…”

Duan Ling Tian was puzzled. He looked at Ke’er and asked, “Ke’er, are you okay?”

“Brother Tian, I’m fine.” Ke’Er shook her head and sighed. “I can tell my sister is feeling a little down so I want her to have some alone time with Si Ling… Ever since Si Ling was born, she has treated Si Ling really well. She treats Si Ling like her own.”

“I can see that… She cares for Si Ling more than she cares for herself.”

“Earlier when Si Ling ran into your arms as soon as she came out, I can see my sister is upset.” As a woman, Ke’er was acutely aware of people’s emotions. In this regard, Duan Ling Tian was no match for her.

“I see.” Duan Ling Tian finally understood the situation. Then, he began to feel bad. “I really didn’t know she treats Si Ling so well… If I knew, I wouldn’t have tormented her like that.” He was prejudiced against Gan Ru Yan because she was the one who brought Ke’er away from him back then. Now that he found out Gan Ru Yan had treated his daughter very well, his prejudice against her vanished and was replaced by a sense of guilt. After all, it was ungentlemanly for him to treat a girl in that way.

“Brother Tian, my sister’s really a nice person… She brought me away back then because she was worried the others from the Fire Worship Sect would harm me if they found me. She doesn’t mean any harm. If she has ill intentions, she sent me to the Enforcement Hall immediately.” Ke’er said.

“I know that.” Duan Ling Tian nodded. “Don’t worry… I won’t be prejudiced against her in the future.”

“Okay.” Ke’er nodded with a smile. It was obvious she was in a good mood. After all, Duan Ling Tian and Gan Ru Yan were her closest family members. She did not want any conflict between them.

Duan Ling Tian and Ke’er stayed in the room for quite sometime before they finally left.

During the time they were gone, Duan Si Ling seemed to have temporarily forgotten Duan Ling Tian’s existence. She played and chatted with Gan Ru Yan with a wide smile on her face.

This was how simple a child’s world is.

When Duan Ling Tian walked out, he made his way to Gan Ru Yan immediately. He felt slightly awkward when she gave him the cold shoulder. Even then, he soldiered on and explained himself to her. “So… The reason I decided to stop helping Ke’er to improve her Innate Spiritual Root to black one for now is due to the Heavenly Tribulation… When my Innate Spiritual Root turned black…” He continued to explain how dangerous the Heaven Tribulation was to her with a grave expression on his face. Finally, he concluded his explanation with these words. “To pass the Heavenly Tribulation, one must have a cultivation base at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage!”

Gan Ru Yan was so horrified by Duan Ling Tian’s explanation that she did not notice Duan Ling Tian’s sudden change of attitude toward her or why he had suddenly decided to explain things to her. At this moment, all her attention was on the black Innate Spiritual Root that would attract the Heavenly Tribulation.

To pass the Heavenly Tribulation, one must have a cultivation base at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage.’ Duan Ling Tian’s words appeared in Gan Ru Yan’s mind, shocking her.

When Gan Ru Yan regained her senses, she stared at Duan Ling Tian and asked in astonishment, “You… Did you break through to the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage?”

“My current strength is merely on par with those powerhouses who had just broken through to the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage,” Duan Ling Tian answered.

Gan Ru Yan was thoroughly shocked as she stared at Duan Ling Tian with mixed feelings. Back then, when she brought her sister away from the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land, this man was as weak as a baby to her.

However, currently, he had surpassed her in leaps and bounds!

After a while, Duan Ling Tian called out to the girls, “Let’s go to the Wandering Saint Palace.”

Duan Ling Tian and the girls left the inn and made their way to the territory of the Wandering Saint Palace.

As one of the strongest factions among the Human-Devil clan’s Three Palaces and Six Halls, the Wandering Saint Palace had a vast territory in the Human-Devil Saint City. From a bird’s eye view, it looked like the imperial palaces in the Mortal Continents. Needless to say, the Wandering Saint Palace’s territory was much larger than the imperial palaces on the Mortal Continents. Even the Darkhan Dynasty’s imperial palace could not compete with it.

The Wandering Saint Palace’s territory was located in the northeast of the Human-Devil Saint City. The area was quite remote so there were very few Human-Devils around. Only a few Wandering Saint Palace disciples on patrol could be seen.

When Duan Ling Tian and the others were approaching the territory of the Wandering Saint Palace, a stern voice rang in the distance. “This is the territory of the Wandering Saint Palace. State your business!”

After a few moments, three figures appeared to block Duan Ling Tian and the others’ path.

The person who had spoken was a middle-aged man who stood in the middle. His face was expressionless. He did not even blink twice when he saw the pair of beautiful twins flanking Duan Ling Tian.

Contrary to the middle-aged man, the two young men standing next to him were completely captivated by Ke’er and Gan Ru Yan’s beauty. They stared at the two girls intently before they turned to look at Duan Ling Tian in envy.

“I came to join the Wandering Saint Palace,” Duan Ling Tian said casually.

The middle-aged man who seemed to be the leader of the trio remained impassive when he heard Duan Ling Tian’s words. He asked flatly, nary an inflection could be heard in his voice, “You’ll need a referral to join the Wandering Saint Palace… Do you have a referral?”

Referral? Duan Ling Tian stiffened slightly when he heard the middle-aged man’s words. He was obviously unaware that one needed a referral to join the Wandering Saint Palace.

“I thought anyone would be able to join as long as they’re purely human?” Duan Ling Tian asked.

It was unknown if one of the young men was jealous because of the two beautiful women accompanying Duan Ling Tian but he scoffed immediately. The Wandering Saint Palace opens our door once a year to take in humans. However, we’ve done that three months ago. If you intend to join us, you’ll have to wait for another nine months or get a referral from someone in the Wandering Saint Palace…”

However, as soon as the young man finished speaking, he quickly sent a Voice Transmission to Duan Ling Tian. “If you ask the girls by your side to spend the night with me, I can consider giving you a referral to join the Wandering Saint Palace.” His tone was extremely arrogant and condescending. His desire was apparent in his eyes.

You’re seeking death!” Duan Ling Tian spat out and he narrowed his eyes as soon as he heard the young men’s words. His aura turned cold immediately. It felt as though the surroundings’ temperature had dropped.

At the same time, Sun Saint Origin flowed in Duan Ling Tian’s body through his 99 Saint Veins at lightning speed before it surged out his body and shot at the young man at an outrageous speed.

Shua!

At this point, the middle-aged man could no longer maintain his composure. His expression changed drastically.

“Stop it!” The middle-aged man cried out. However, it was too late. Duan Ling Tian had killed the young man in just a blink of an eye.

There was no trace of the young man at all. The Spatial Ring that was hovering in the air was the only proof of his existence.

Both men’s expressions changed immediately. They stared at Duan Ling Tian as though they had seen a monster.

After domineeringly killing the patrolling disciple from the Wandering Saint Palace, Duan Ling Tian said coldly, “Anyone who disrespects my woman has to die!”

It struck fear into the hearts of the remaining patrolling disciples from the Wandering Saint Palace. They began to tremble in fear.

At this moment, Ke’er and Gan Ru Yan finally understood why Duan Ling Tian had suddenly attacked.

After a few moments, the middle-aged man finally regained his composure. His stuttered, “Y-you… You dare to kill a Wandering Saint Palace disciple in our territory?!”
