Chapter 2908 - Curtain Drops


Chapter 2908: Curtain Drops

“Although I played no part in their attempt to kill you, they’re my master and disciple. I have to bear some responsibility as well,” The expression of Li Xuan Kong, the Sect Leader of the Blissful Sect, was one of sincerity as he said, “However, I hope you’ll spare our sect’s elders who are completely innocent…”

As soon as Liu Xuan Kong finished speaking, Ji Fan, the former Arhat of the Blissful Sect, burst out laughing. When his laughter subsided, he said, “Liu Xuan Kong, although I’ve been your direct disciple for years, I never knew you had this side to you. You really know how to act. Grandmaster, you, me, and all the elders… All of us unanimously decided to kill Duan Ling Tian… But now, you’re trying to shift all the blame to me and grandmaster?” A sneer could be seen on his face as he continued to say, “If what you say is true, why didn’t you try to explain yourself earlier? Why are you only scrambling to explain yourselves after Master Duan killed Li Ping?”

The group of high-ranking officials from the Blissful Sect panicked again when Ji Fan brought up their conduct earlier.

“Master Duan, don’t listen to him!”

“Master Duan, he is lying!”

“Master Duan, he is spouting nonsense!”

However, Duan Ling Tian paid no heed to them at this moment. The more these people tried to deny their involvement, the more certain he was that Ji Fan did not lie to him. Moreover, he had interrogated Ji Fan directly after killing Li An, the other Old Ancestor of the Blissful Sect. At that time, Ji Fan was so utterly frightened that it was impossible for him to lie at the moment even if he were to be given the courage of a lion.

The group of elders from the Blissful Sect was still scrambling to explain themselves and shift all the blame on Ji Fan when Duan Ling Tian scoffed. His expression was even colder than before, making everyone feel as though the surroundings’ temperature had drastically dropped.

Before Liu Xuan Kong and the other high-ranking officials of the Blissful Sect could even react, Duan Ling Tian’s eyes flashed with killing intent as a golden Buddha’s silhouette appeared. A purple energy surged out of his body at the same time. When the golden Buddha’s silhouette merged with the purple energy, it turned life-like.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

With a wave of his hand, purple palm prints fell like torrential rain on the high-ranking officials of the Blissful Sect.

“No!” Liu Xuan Kong could only cry out miserable in a voice laden with despair, clearly unresigned, when he finally regained his senses and was drowned in the palm prints.

Meanwhile, the other high-ranking officials of the Blissful Sect, whose strength was inferior to Liu Xuan Kong, had not even regained their senses before they were killed by the shower of palm prints.

For a moment, a shower of blood rained down on the Blissful Sect’s estate, dyeing the ground red. When the rain of blood finally stopped, the metallic stench permeated the entire estate.

The disciples from the Blissful Sect felt like throwing up when the smell of blood wafted into their noses. Although they could not see Duan Ling Tian’s movements at all, seeing the shower of blood and Duan Ling Tian collecting a large number of Spatial Rings, they knew that the high-ranking officials of the Blissful Sect had died. All of them were terrified. Many of them wanted to throw up from the reek of the blood in the air, but they endured it, fearing they might draw the ire of the purple-clad young man standing in the distance.

Meanwhile, after Duan Ling Tian collected all the Spatial Rings, he looked at his hands as he clenched them a few times. An expression of fascination could be seen on his face as he thought to himself, ‘How good would it be if this strength doesn’t fade away…’ At this moment, he felt as though he was truly unrivaled in the Six Southeastern Regions. He felt as though he had the world in the palms of his hands. He was truly fond of this feeling.

Duan Ling Tian’s strength was similar to that of a Ten Directions Celestial King today. It had been so easy for him to kill Li Ping, the Old Ancestor of the Blissful Sect, who had recently broken through and became a Celestial King. It was even easier for him to kill all the high-ranking officials of the Blissful Sect.

Naturally, Duan Ling Tian’s true strength was incomparable to the strength he possessed after using the consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon. Alas, the strength granted to him by the consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon was fast depleting. Killing Li Ping and the high-ranking officials of the Blissful Sect took a lot of the strength granted to him by the consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon. He sighed inwardly, lost in his thoughts. ‘Unfortunately, with every use, the strength would deplete. It seems like I’ve used quite a bit of it. At this moment, my strength is probably comparable to an Eight Trigrams Celestial Duke…’

Meanwhile, Ji Fan who was standing behind Duan Ling Tian was laden with anxiety. After all, he did not know if Duan Ling Tian would kill him or spare him. Every second was agonizing to him as he waited for Duan Ling Tian to act.

Duan Ling Tian, who was still lost in his thoughts, shook his head. ‘I’m a little too greedy. I’m lucky enough to obtain this consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon that’s able to grant me the power of an ordinary Celestial Lord. Even if it doesn’t last, I should be thankful. Not everyone is so lucky after all…’

Any other person in Duan Ling Tian’s shoes would have the same thoughts as well. If one was ignorant, one, naturally, would not know what one was missing. However, if one experienced something amazing, it was only natural to be reluctant to part with it.

When Duan Ling Tian finally regained his senses, he turned to look at Ji Fan and lightly asked, “Those people who voted to kill me… Are there any who escaped?”

Ji Fan was momentarily taken aback when Duan Ling Tian spoke to him. Then, he shook his head and hastily replied, “No, no! There are a few elders left, but they weren’t in the sect when he had that meeting.” Then, as though he was speaking to himself, he mumbled in a soft voice, “Well… I can’t say that none of the culprits escaped…”

Duan Ling Tian cocked an eyebrow and asked, “So there are people who escaped?”

“W-well… I mean, t-there’s me…” Ji Fan pointed to himself nervously.

“You?” Duan Ling Tian looked at Ji Fan indifferently, and he did not continue down that line of conversation. Instead, he asked, “I asked you to record me killing Li Ping with your Floating Image Pearl. Did you do it? Although it was unexpected that he had broken through and became a Celestial King, he stood at one spot from the beginning until the end when I killed him. Under such circumstances, your Duke Grade Floating Image Pearl should still be able to record his death…” His eyes flashed coldly as he looked at Ji Fan and continued to say, “Don’t tell me you’ve forgotten this task… Otherwise, don’t blame me for going back on my words and killing you!”

Ji Fan hastily replied, “I-I recorded it, Master Duan! I recorded it!” He sighed in relief inwardly, glad he did not forget the task he was entrusted with.

“Good. I have another task for you…” Duan Ling Tian’s eyes gleamed as he said, “If you complete the next task well, I’ll disregard the enmity between us… Otherwise, you should know what the consequences are…”

Faced with Duan Ling Tian’s threat, Ji Fan earnestly said, “You can rest assured, Master Duan. I, Ji Fan, will make sure to complete this task well!”

“Mm…” After acknowledging Ji Fan’s words, Duan Ling Tian no longer paid any attention to Ji Fan. He turned around and left.

Ji Fan sighed in relief as he watched Duan Ling Tian disappear into the fog from the Formations. Then, he flew toward the disciples from the Blissful Sect.

The disciples from the Blissful Sect who just sighed in relief after Duan Ling Tian left tensed up again when they saw Ji Fan approaching them.

The disciples’ expressions changed drastically, but all of them respectfully greeted Ji Fan in unison. “Arhat!” It was as though they did not hear Ji Fan openly proclaiming that he was severing ties with the Blissful Sect earlier.

Since they were standing in the distance earlier, they did not hear the conversation between Ji Fan and Duan Ling Tian. For this reason, they were unaware that Duan Ling Tian no longer had anything to do with Ji Fan after assigning him a final task. They instinctively thought Ji Fan must have a good relationship with Duan Ling Tian, someone who was a Three Talents Celestial King, at least. However, even if they were privy to the conversation, they still would not dare to act disrespectfully toward Ji Fan. After all, Ji Fan was much stronger than them. Thus, they were extremely deferential toward Ji Fan.

Ji Fan looked at the disciples from the Blissful Sect indifferently and said, “I need your help with something…”

Despite the indifference in Ji Fan’s voice, the disciples from the Blissful Sect felt chills running up their spines when they heard him speak. They did not dare to dally and quickly responded with a ‘yes’.
