Chapter 3414: As You Wish!
Although the Purple Spike Celestial Emperor had unleashed the law of ice, she had only done so to intimidate Duan Ling Tian. She had no intention of hurting him at all. However, her actions had angered Elder Huo, causing his expressions to darken.
Elder Huo’s body was instantly shrouded by surging flames.
Duan Ling Tian stopped Elder Huo through Voice Transmission. “Elder Huo, there’s no need for this…”
Meanwhile, the Purple Spike Celestial Emperor was inwardly shocked when she discovered not only was Duan Ling Tian unaffected by the law of ice, but it seemed like he did not feel pressured at all.
At this moment, a loud voice suddenly rang in the air.
“Kong You Yi greets Third Junior Aunt!”
“You may enter,” the Purple Spike Celestial Emperor said as she raised an eyebrow and withdrew her energy.
In just a moment, a tall and muscular young man entered the courtyard. He was dressed in a silver long robe with golden trimmings. He carried an arrogant air about him. He bowed at the Purple Spike Celestial Emperor. “Greetings, Third Junior Aunt.”
“You Yi, what brings you here?” The Purple Spike Celestial Emperor asked as she looked at Kong You Yi.
“I heard that Junior Sister Li Fei’s husband is here so I came to see what kind of outstanding person he is for her to ignore my pursuit of her…” Kong You Yi said bluntly with a smile on his face. It was clear he had intentionally spoken bluntly for his own purpose.
“Kong You Yi, can you stop talking nonsense?” Li Fei glared at Kong You Yi with a frosty expression on her face.
Just as Li Fei was about to lose her temper, Duan Ling Tian held her hand and shook her head gently. Then, he said with a smile on his face, “Little Fei’er, your temper is still as bad as before. Is it necessary for you to retaliate when a dog barks at you?”
As soon as Kong You Yi appeared, Duan Ling Tian had already sensed Kong You Yi’s hostility when their eyes met. He was briefly confused by Kong You Yi’s hostility since it was their first meeting after all. Kong You Yi’s open declaration of his pursuit of Li Fei enlightened him immediately.
Li Fei struggled as she tried not to laugh after listening to Duan Ling Tian’s words. It felt as though they had returned to the days when they were still in the Saint Province Realm. She did not expect Duan Ling Tian was still so pointed with his words.
At the same time, the Purple Spike Celestial Emperor could not help but frown upon hearing Duan Ling Tian’s words, but she remained silent.
On the other hand, Kong You Yi’s expression darkened as he looked at Li Fei and asked, “Junior Sister Li Fei, is your husband always so rude?”
“Kong You Yi, before you ask such a question, why don’t you reflect on yourself to see if you’re rude?” Li Fei said nonchalantly as she glanced at Kong You Yi. She did not mince her words even though her master was present.
Kong You Yi inhaled deeply to suppress his anger after listening to Li Fei’s words. Then, he scoffed as he turned to look at Duan Ling Tian and asked, “Brat, did you come here hoping to stay in the Heavenly Palace of the Floating Heaven using Junior Sister Li Fei’s connections?”
Duan Ling Tian looked at Kong You Yi and said pointedly, “Some people aren’t even able to use Little Fei’er’s connection even if they want to…”
Kong You Yi’s expression further darkened when he heard Duan Ling Tian’s provocative words. He said, “So you admit to using Junior Sister Li Fei? She must be blind for choosing to marry you…” Then, he turned to say to Li Fei, “Junior Sister Li Fei, such a man isn’t worthy of you!”
Li Fei retorted tonelessly “It’s not your place to comment if he’s worthy or not!”
At this moment, Duan Ling Tian said, “Purple Spike Celestial Emperor, if there’s nothing else, Little Fei’er and I will take our leave now. We’ll visit you in the future.”
The Purple Spike Celestial Emperor’s expression darkened upon hearing Duan Ling Tian’s words. “Can you guarantee Fei’er’s safety if she follows you? Can you guarantee her cultivation won’t suffer? You may leave with her if you can truthfully answer ‘yes’ to these questions. Otherwise, I won’t let her leave with you.”
The Purple Spike Celestial Emperor could sense Duan Ling Tian was not as simple as he seemed to be so she did not go overboard with her words.
However, before Duan Ling Tian or Li Fei could reply, Kong You Yi exclaimed in shock, “Junior Sister Li Fei, y-you’re leaving with him? You have to think this through. Where else can you find a cultivation environment as good as the Heavenly Palace of the Floating Island after leaving?”
Li Fei replied indifferently, “Nothing matters as long as we’re together.” Following that, she kneeled in front of the Purple Spike Celestial Emperor and solemnly said, “Master, I’ve been cultivating hard all these years because of my husband. Now that we’re reunited, nothing is more important to me than him. I’ll never forget your kindness and the lessons you’ve taught me over the years. If you ever need my help in the future, I will never refuse you. Moreover, I promise to visit you in the future…”
Although Li Fei was unaware that Duan Ling Tian could indeed provide her with a better cultivation environment, she was insistent on leaving with him.
“Fei’er.” The Purple Spike Celestial Emperor’s gaze softened as she looked at Li Fei. “I understand you. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have offered to let him stay in the Heavenly Palace of the Floating Heaven. I only want you to live up to your potential and cultivate properly. However, since he has refused, there’s no doubt your cultivation will suffer if you follow him.”
After the Purple Spike Celestial Emperor finished speaking, Kong You Yi looked at Duan Ling Tian and said indignantly, “Brat, you’re too selfish! How dare you let Junior Sister Li Fei sacrifice her cultivation and her comprehension of the law for your own desire?”
Duan Ling Tian ignored Kong You Yi. Instead, he looked at the Purple Spike Celestial Emperor and solemnly said, “Purple Spike Celestial Emperor, I’m grateful for your care toward Huan’er until now. However, I can assure you that her cultivation environment and the cultivation resources she will receive will be better than those in the Heavenly Palace of the Floating Heaven…”
Since the cultivation environment in Duan Ling Tian’s Little World was comparable to a Realm of Gods, how could the Heavenly Palace of the Floating Heaven compare to his Little World? However, he naturally could not reveal the secret of Little World to these people.
The Purple Spike Celestial Emperor frowned and looked at Duan Ling Tian skeptically.
At the same time, Kong You Yi laughed out loud. “What a joke! Brat, you should think carefully before you boast. How many places are better than the Heavenly Palace of the Floating Heaven? It’s a place where many people yearn to cultivate at. Only the cultivation environment of a few top heaven-grade forces and Heavenly Palaces of Devata Realms can compare to the Heavenly Palace of the Floating Heaven. You’re not even 400 years old, and your innate talent isn’t as high as Junior Sister Li Fei; how dare you boast in front of us?”
Previously, Li Fei had spoken openly to her master. She had mentioned that perhaps, Duan Ling Tian’s innate talent was not as high as hers since she had absorbed the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in the Divine Offering Land. The Purple Spike Celestial Emperor had spoken about this with her senior brother, the Almighty Wind Celestial Emperor, who was Kong You Yi’s father. Kong You Yi, who had heard about this from his father, naturally assumed Duan Ling Tian was weaker than Li Fei.
“Shut up or I’ll rip your mouth apart!” Duan Ling Tian’s expression turned unsightly. He had grown impatient after Kong You Yi continued to provoke him. A hint of coldness flashed in his eyes as he looked at Kong You Yi.
Kong You Yi was briefly stunned. When he regained his senses, he laughed. Then, he said disdainfully, “Rip my mouth apart? I’m much stronger than Junior Sister Li Fei in terms of strength and cultivation base. You’re not even stronger than her, but you dare to say such words. Let me guess, you’re probably not even a Celestial King, right? How hilarious of you to say you’re going to rip my mouth apart.”
“Kong You Yi!” Li Fei said furiously as her expression changed.
Just as Li Fei was about to attack Kong You Yi, terrifying space energy surged out of Duan Ling Tian’s body, causing the corners of his robes to flutter in the air. “It seems like you really want me to tear your mouth apart. In that case, let me fulfill your wish…”
Duan Ling Tian’s space energy contained his Celestial Origin Energy as a One Basic Celestial Emperor and the energy of his fused profundity from the law of space.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Before Kong You Yi could react, two sword rays appeared near Kong You Yi’s mouth out thin air through Duan Ling Tian’s use of the Transportation Profundity and the Teleportation Profundity.
“Stop!” The Purple Spike Celestial Emperor cried out in shock and disbelief. She tried to intervene but was unfortunately stopped by Elder Huo.
