Chapter 4213 - 4213 A Sudden Change in Plan

4213 A Sudden Change in Plan

The Pure Yang Sect’s estate shook fiercely.

Soon enough, the powerhouses of the Pure Yang Sect flew into the sky.

“Who destroyed our sect’s Guarding Formation?”

“My lord, may I ask who you are? Is there enmity between you and our sect?”

“My lord, you’re a Supreme Powerhouse. How could our sect have offended you?”

These powerhouses were the leaders of the various factions in the Pure Yang Sect, including Zhen Yun Feng from the Cloud Peak faction. The Sect Leader of the Pure Yang Sect was also present. They were all panicking when they found out a Supreme God had destroyed the Pure Yang Sect’s Guarding Formation.

Lu Tian Feng smiled contemptuously as he said, “How dare you call yourself a supreme-rank force. I managed to destroy your sect’s Guarding Formation with just one strike. How preposterous!”

As soon as Lu Tian Feng finished speaking, he launched another terrifying attack at the Pure Yang Sect’s estate.

Boom!

The attack was stronger than the previous one. Clearly, Lu Tian Feng intended to kill all the members of the Pure Yang Sect. However, he was stunned by what happened next.

A barrier suddenly appeared, protecting the members from Lu Tian Feng’s attack. The barrier shook briefly after deflecting his attack, but it remained intact. This barrier was from the Pure Yang Sect’s Inner Guarding Formation. The Pure Yang Sect’s Guarding Formation consisted of the Outer Formation and the Inner Formation. The Outer Formation only needed a small number of resources to power it and was strong enough to stop those below the realm of a Supreme God. On the contrary, the Inner Formation, which was powered by a high number of resources, was naturally stronger and could stop Supreme Gods. The Inner Formation could completely stop the attack of a rudimentary Supreme God without the risk of collapsing, but it could only hold off the attacks of an intermediate Supreme God before it weakened. Nonetheless, it could help the Pure Yang Sect stall for time while it called for reinforcements from Supreme Gods they were allied with.

“A double Formation?” Lu Tian Feng said with a scoff. Then, he launched another round of attacks. However, he found that he barely left a scratch on the barrier.

‘Damn it! I didn’t expect that a sect that didn’t even have an advanced Emperor of Gods until recently would have such a powerful Guarding Formation,’ Lu Tian Feng cursed inwardly. It did not make sense to him that such a weak sect actually possessed such a powerful Guarding Formation.

“My lord, who are you?”

“How did the Pure Yang Sect offend you, my lord?”

The expressions of the intermediate Emperors of Gods from the Pure Yang Sect, including its sect leader, were dark at this moment.

Previously, Duan Ling Tian had won them many places to enter the Secret Holy Realm during the Seven Mansions Feast. However, the Secret Holy Realm had yet to open, hence, the sect’s intermediate Emperors of Gods still had not been given a chance to become advanced Emperors of Gods. Nonetheless, despite being intermediate Emperors of Gods, none of them showed cowardice at this moment, and none of them yielded when faced with a formidable opponent. After all, Lu Tian Feng was clearly in the wrong.

“You should ask Duan Ling Tian these questions,” Lu Tian Feng said with a scoff. Then, he began to attack the Guarding Formation again as he said, “It doesn’t matter if you’ve called for reinforcements. I’m going to attack your Guarding Formation and let your sect suffer greatly. This Inner Formation must need a huge number of resources to activate and run, right?”

Lu Tian Feng struck the Formation continuously to vent his anger.

Lu Tian Feng assumed that he would be able to easily annihilate the Pure Yang Sect. He really did not expect the Pure Yang Sect’s Guarding Formation would hold up so long. He knew that the Pure Yang Sect must have informed Duan Ling Tian about this matter and called for reinforcements as well.

‘I should’ve gone to the Flying Dragon Sect or the Linghu clan first!’ Lu Tian Feng thought to himself as he gritted his teeth. He truly regretted his choice of coming to the Pure Yang Sect first.

Previously, Lu Tian Feng had investigated Duan Ling Tian thoroughly. As such, he knew that Duan Ling Tian was in the Flying Dragon Sect and the Linghu clan before he joined the Pure Yang Sect. He had chosen the Pure Yang Sect as his first target since Duan Ling Tian had only left the Pure Yang Sect not too long ago. In his opinion, Duan Ling Tian would be sadder if the Pure Yang Sect was annihilated. Who knew that the Pure Yang Sect was no pushover?

Lu Tian Feng found it unbelievable that the Pure Yang Sect, which had fewer than ten Supreme Gods since its inception, possessed such a powerful Guarding Formation. Moreover, among the Supreme Gods in the Pure Yang Sect, there were no intermediate Supreme Gods, let alone an advanced Supreme God.

‘Wait… There’s the founder of the Pure Yang Sect. He must have something to do with the Formation. He’s always been rather mysterious…’

Lu Tian felt helpless and dispirited at this moment. He knew he had messed up his only chance of revenge. The moment he made a move on the Pure Yang Sect, he had no doubt that Duan Ling Tian would be quickly alerted, and reinforcements would be on their way. Nonetheless, he continued to attack the Formation relentlessly, intending to exhaust its power source and vent his anger at the same time.

At this time…

“Duan Ling Tian’s enemy?”

Zhen Ping Fan flew over and landed next to his father, Zhen Yun Feng. His expression was dark as he watched Lu Tian Feng continuously strike the Pure Yang Sect’s Guarding Formation.

Zhen Ping Fan said icily, “Trash! A mighty Supreme God like you is venting your anger on the Pure Yang Sect just because you can’t deal with Duan Ling Tian. Aren’t you worried you’ll develop a Heart Demon that will cause you to perish during your next Heavenly Tribulation?”

Lu Tian Feng’s expression changed upon hearing Zhen Ping Fan’s words, which exposed his intention of venting his anger on the Pure Yang Sect because he was unable to deal with Duan Ling Tian. His shame and humiliation from Zhen Ping Fan’s words stoked the flames of his anger even more.

“Brat!” Lu Tian Feng glared at Zhen Ping Fan as he attacked the Guarding Formation and said, “How dare you call me trash! Do you have the guts to fight me? If you’re able to survive a strike from me, I’ll let the Pure Yang Sect go. What do you think? Do you dare?”

A disdainful smile appeared on Lu Tian Feng’s face after he finished speaking.

Zhen Ping Fan ignored Lu Tian Feng. Instead, he turned to his father and the others before he said, “Father, senior brother, I just contacted Duan Ling Tian. This man is Lu Tian Feng, the former Vice Leader of the Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation. He’s been expelled from the congregation, and the congregation met with Dua Ling Tian recently to make amends. He’s not capable of dealing with Duan Ling Tian so he’s targeting us to get to Duan Ling Tian. He’s nothing but a useless coward. He won’t be able to stay for long. Duan Ling Tian has requested the congregation to capture him. The people from the congregation should be arriving soon.”

In fact, Zhen Ping Fan had made up his final sentence.

…

Meanwhile, Yang Yu Chen’s doppelganger, who was hiding in a corner in the Pure Yang Sect, frowned slightly upon hearing Zhen Ping Fan’s words. He sighed and asked Duan Ling Tian through Voice Transmission, “Junior brother, did you tell Zhen Ping Fan that the Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation’s members are about to arrive at the Pure Yang Sect?”

Duan Ling Tian was stunned. Then, he shook his head and replied, “No, I didn’t. I only told him that the congregation promised to take care of Lu Tian Feng so that he wouldn’t worry.”

“He must have added it on his own to scare Lu Tian Feng away,” Yang Yu Chen said with a sigh, “If Lu Tian Feng is frightened into leaving now, it’ll be difficult for us to kill him.”

“What happened?” Duan Ling Tian frowned slightly.

Yang Yu Chen briefly explained the situation to Duan Ling Tian.

After listening to Yang Yu Chen, Duan Ling Tian said with a wry smile, “I should have reminded Elder Zhen not to scare Lu Tian Feng away. I hope Lu Tian Feng isn’t frightened by those words.”

Yang Yu Chen shook his head. “From what I can see, Lu Tian Feng believed him.”

Duan Ling Tian felt slightly helpless as he hastily sent a message to Zhen Ping Fan, telling Zhen Ping Fan to act as though he was lying to make Lu Tian Feng stay and lower his guard.

A hint of regret flashed in Zhen Ping Fan’s eyes when he received Duan Ling Tian’s message, realizing that he had made a mistake. He also learned that Yang Yu Chen was waiting for the members of the Lone Primordial Spirit Congregation to arrive so they could work together to capture Lu Tian Feng. If Lu Tian Feng left before the members of the congregation arrived, Yang Yu Chen’s doppelganger alone would not be able to stop Lu Tian Feng from leaving.

“Elder Zhen, you must find a way to make Lu Tian Feng stay! If we don’t kill him this time, it’ll be difficult to find a chance to kill him in the future.”

After listening to Duan Ling Tian’s message, Zhen Ping Fan tried his best to calm down. Then, he quickly acted uneasy and nervous as though he had been lying. However, he soon discovered that Lu Tian Feng seemed to be distracted while striking the Guarding Formation. Lu Tian Feng was not paying attention to him at all. He wondered inwardly, ‘Is he really frightened by my words?’
