Chapter 2309 - Ke’er’s Determination


Chapter 2309 Ke’er’s Determination

Although Yuwen Hao Chen, the Palace Master of Wandering Saint Palace, had the inherited technique from Wandering Saint Palace, he no longer dared to let his guard down as the lightning bolts became stronger and stronger.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

When Yuwen Hao Chen was standing in the air, about ten meters away from him, a lightning bolt’s energy was dispersed in all directions by an invisible barrier.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Nevertheless, a good amount of the energy from the lightning bolt still managed to pierce through the invisible barrier and swept toward Yuwen Hao Chen like a rampaging bull. He still had to use his own strength to deal with the remaining energy from the lightning bolt. Although this bolt of lightning did not injure him like it did Duan Ling Tian, he was still severely injured. His robe was torn and he was bleeding as well. However, his aura still remained majestic.

Yuwen Hao Chen panted in exhaustion after he dealt with the 79th lightning bolt. He was sweating profusely as though he had just gone through a tough battle.

Many of the people present could not help but sigh when they saw Yuwen Hao Chen’s condition.

“Although Palace Master Yuwen Hao Chen looks rather miserable now, he’s still in a much better condition compared to Duan Ling Tian. Based on his current condition, I think it would be like a game for him to deal with the last two lightning bolts!”

“Their fates are too different… Duan Ling Tian will die when the next lightning bolt strikes while Yuwen Hao Chen will pass the Celestial Ascension Tribulation and become an Eminent Celestial!”

“Regardless, it’s still good news for the Human-Devil clan… Palace Master Yuwen is, after all, the Palace Master of Wandering Saint Palace. It’s one of the forces from the Three Palaces and Six Halls. He’s one of our own. On the other hand, Duan Ling Tian is just an outsider!”

“You’re right!”

Almost everyone present was certain Duan Ling Tian would be killed by the 80th lightning bolt. Based on the situation, they were not wrong to think so. Even Duan Ling Tian himself thought so.

…

When Ke’er saw her man looking so miserable, her delicate and beautiful face was already drenched in tears. Her heart ached and she hated herself for not being to help her man bear the next lightning strike. She murmured to herself, “Brother Tian!”

“Daddy!” Duan Si Ling who was standing next to Ke’er cried out as she wept. There were a few instances when she wanted to rush to her father but was stopped by Gan Ru Yan.

Gan Ru Yan’s eyes reddened as well as she looked at Duan Ling Tian. Her expression was tense and anxious, it was a look that she rarely wore.

“Master…” Peng Lai stared at the purple figure in the distance and sighed. He felt as though his hopes had been dashed. Based on the current situation, he did not think it was possible for a miracle to happen. His master’s injuries were severe. Let alone the 80th lightning bolt, if the 79th lightning bolt were to strike again, his master might not even be able to deal with it. ‘I’ll die as well if master dies… The Wandering Saint Palace definitely won’t let a traitor live!’ He was aware of this. After a while, it seemed like he had come to accept his fate as he muttered under his breath, “However, even if I die, I don’t think I’ll have any regrets… After all, I possess an indigo Innate Spiritual Root!” Despite his words, it was clear that he was in despair.

…

“Brother Ling Tian…” Huang Qi Ling murmured as she stared at Duan Ling Tian hopelessly. There was nothing she could do except watch at this moment.

“You shouldn’t have come three years ago…” The most beautiful woman in the Human-Devil clan transmitted her voice with a sigh.

Huang Wen Jing was not angry even though Duan Ling Tian did not respond to her. Instead, she continued to question him through Voice Transmission. “I still don’t understand why you didn’t escape when I intentionally spread the news about your exposed identity in the Wandering Saint Palace… If you’d left immediately, you would’ve been able to avoid my master and Palace Master Shi from the Great Spirit Palace. Is it because you’re confident about your strength?”

Huang Wen Jing did not expect a reply from Duan Ling Tian, therefore, she was surprised when she heard his response.

“Thank you.” Duan Ling Tian appreciated Huang Wen Jing’s help. Previously, Peng Lai had recounted everything that happened in the last year before he made his way here. He, naturally, knew the news of his real identity had been leaked in the Wandering Saint Palace earlier than planned. Rumor had it that someone had intentionally leaked the news, and Vice Palace Master Yun Fu Ye had even killed a few suspects. He did not expect the person who had leaked the news would turn out to be Huang Wen Jing. His eyes flashed with complex emotions when he learned about this. For this reason, he had quickly expressed his gratitude. Although she did not help much, it was the thought that counted.

“You’re finally willing to respond to me?” Huang Wen Jing transmitted her voice. A hint of delight could be heard in her voice as well.

“I think I’ll be killed by the 80th lightning bolt from the Celestial Ascension Tribulation!” Duan Ling Tian transmitted his voice again. “I’d like to ask a favor of you…”

Huang Wen Jing cut Duan Ling Tian off. She knew what he wanted to say. “You want me to protect those three, right?”

“Yes.” Duan Ling Tian replied via Voice Transmission. In his opinion, Huang Wen Jing, the last direct disciple of Yuwen Hao Chen, was doted on very much by her master. Therefore, it should not be difficult if she stubbornly insisted on keeping Ke’er and the other safe. Although the high-ranking officials from the Three Palaces and Six Halls were present, Yuwen Hao Chen was about to become an Eminent Celestial. He would have the highest authority here. As long she could get her master to agree to it, Ke’er and the other two would definitely survive!

“They’re really lucky. You’re still thinking about them even under these circumstances,” Huang Wen Jing sighed faintly before she said, “I promise you.” Her eyes were filled with determination to fulfill this man’s last wish. She resolved to beg her master to spare this man’s family even if she had to use her life to threaten her master.

“Thank you,” Duan Ling Tian thanked her before he said solemnly, “If there’s a next life, I, Duan Ling Tian, will repay your kindness tenfold!”

“If there’s next life, I don’t need your tenfold repayment… I want you to belong solely to me!” Huang Wen Jing asserted.

Duan Ling Tian could not help but smile wryly when he heard Huang Wen Jing’s response. He sighed inwardly. ‘What virtues or abilities do I have that makes her like me so much?’

Duan Ling Tian continued thinking to himself, ‘It’s so unexpected that I’d die here today. Before I die, I must speak to Ke’er. Otherwise, she’ll definitely take her own life to follow me.’ He understood Ke’er’s attitude very well. He had to talk to her. After all, he was aware that he would not be able to deal with the 80th lightning bolt even though he had tried his best to heal himself.

Duan Ling Tian gazed at Ke’er from afar as he said through Voice Transmission, “Ke’er! Can you make me a promise?”

“Brother Tian, what is it?” Ke’er asked.

“I want to tell you that even if I fail the Celestial Ascension Tribulation and die, the Wandering Saint Palace might spare your life,” Duan Ling Tian stated. He was quite confident in Huang Wen Jing because he knew Yuwen Hao Chen doted on her. He was certain she would be able to ensure their safety if she persisted. Moreover, Ke’er and the other two were not a threat to the Wandering Saint Palace or the Human-Devil clan.

“Brother Tian, I won’t promise you if you want me to live without you! As your wife, we should be together in life and in death. Ke’er will never leave your side again!” Ke’er refused Duan Ling Tian resolutely. She had expected him to say this.

Ke’er’s response caused Duan Ling Tian to feel deeply moved and helpless at the same time. What else would he need when he had a wife like this? However, he still planned to dissuade her. “Ke’er, you…”

Ke’er interrupted Duan Ling Tian. “If you plan to dissuade me using Si Ling, I’ve already thought about it… I know my sister will definitely take good care of Si Ling on my behalf!”

Regardless of how Duan Ling Tian tried to dissuade Ke’er, she was very determined to follow Duan Ling Tian in death.

When Duan Ling Tian saw Ke’er’s determination to be with him in life and in death, he, who had given up, became motivated. His eyes narrowed, it was filled with determination. ‘No way! I can’t die! I mustn’t die!’

In Ke’er’s heart, Duan Ling Tian’s life was more important than hers. Similarly, in Duan Ling Tian’s heart, Ke’er’s life was also more important than his! For this reason, although he did not have a solution, he decided to try with all his might to survive. Even if his body turned into ashes and his soul dispersed, he still had to fight even if it was not for himself, but for Ke’er!
