Chapter 3753 - Supreme Elder Feng’s Forbearance


Chapter 3753 Supreme Elder Feng’s Forbearance

Long Xiao was just one of Supreme Elder Lei’s many disciples. Although Long Xiao was his favorite disciple, Long Xiao’s absence did not affect him, who had lived for tens of thousands of years, at all. In fact, he had mostly been determined to avenge Long Xiao because of his reputation. How could he not do anything if someone killed his disciple? It would be embarrassing if word of it spread out.

However, the more Supreme Elder Lei heard about Duan Ling Tian, the warier he became. After weighing the pros and the cons, he decided it would be bad to make an enemy out of Duan Ling Tian. It no longer mattered to him even if it would be embarrassing.

“Yes, master,” Shi Tong Ming replied. His eyes lit up as soon as he heard his master’s words, and he heaved a sigh of relief. He had been worried his master would stubbornly insist on antagonizing Duan Ling Tian. After all, who knew if he would also be targeted because of his master? Even his senior brother, who was much stronger than him, was not a match for Duan Ling Tian. If Duan Ling Tian targeted him, it would be over. “I’ll wait for your return here. After that, we’ll return to the sect,” Supreme Elder Lei said.

“I understand,” Shi Tong Ming replied respectfully before he left the restaurant for the Linghu clan’s estate.

When Shi Tong Ming was stopped by the patrol team from the Linghu clan in front of their estate, he explained, “I’m looking for Revered Elder Duan. My name is Shi Tong Ming, and I’m a disciple of Supreme Elder Lei. I have no ill intention.”

Shi Tong Ming could naturally see the hostility in the eyes of the members of the Linghu clan so he quickly explained himself.

“Wait here. I’ll report this to Revered Elder Duan.”

The eyes of the members of the Linghu clan held hints of respect when Duan Ling Tian was mentioned.

Duan Ling Tian was now the number one prodigy in the Linghu clan. After his talent in alchemy was made known, even more people idolized him.

“Shi Tong Ming?”

Duan Ling Tian, who was trying to refine a king-grade Divine Pill in his room, was stunned when he heard Wang Fu’s words. After a brief moment, he said, “Uncle Fu, let them bring him here.”

“Yes, Young Master Duan.”

Soon enough, one of the members of the patrol team led Shi Tong Ming to Duan Ling Tian’s courtyard.

Duan Ling Tian walked out of his room. When he saw Shi Tong Ming, he said, “We meet again.”

Duan Ling Tian felt as though a lifetime had passed since he last saw Shi Tong Ming. At that time, he had just killed Tu Feng, the disciple of the second elder of the Hidden Fog Sect. At that time, Shi Tong Ming had come to invite him to join his master, Supreme Elder Lei.

Duan Ling Tian remembered Shi Tong Ming did not look for trouble with him even after he rejected the invitation. At that time, Shi Tong Ming, as a core disciple, was polite when dealing with him. Nevertheless, Shi Tong Ming could not hide the superiority that was etched in his bones. However, currently, Shi Tong Ming was very respectful without any hint of arrogance.

Shi Tong Ming bowed slightly. “Greetings, Revered Elder Duan.”

“What’s the matter?” Duan Ling Tian asked without beating around the bush.

“Revered Elder Duan, I came today on behalf of my master. He’s in Linghu City.” Duan Ling Tian smiled; he did not seem surprised. “Supreme Elder Lei is in Linghu City? What does your master want with me? Don’t tell me he wants you to lure me out so he can capture me back to the Hidden Fog Sect?”

Shi Tong Ming felt slightly embarrassed when he heard Duan Ling Tian’s words. “It’s true that my master came to the city hoping to bring you back to the Hidden Fog Sect. He and Supreme Elder Feng came to an agreement; both of them would take turns staying in Linghu City a year each.” He paused for a moment before he said truthfully, “However, master heard about you refining the Limit Divine Pills today. After careful consideration, he finally came to a decision. He sent me here to tell you that my senior brother, Long Xiao, provoked you first. Hence, he has given up on the idea of avenging my senior brother. He wants to make it clear that he no longer holds a grudge regarding this matter.”

Duan Ling Tian was slightly surprised by Shi Tong Ming’s words. He did not expect Supreme Elder Lei would come to this decision just because he managed to refine the Limit Divine Pills. He looked at Shi Tong Ming with a penetrating gaze as he asked with a smile, “Is Supreme Elder Lei hoping that I’d let down my guard after hearing these words?”

Shi Tong Ming was very straightforward. Instead of explaining, he swore on the Devil Heart’s Blood Oath to prove that he was telling the truth and that he believed Supreme Elder Lei truly did not want to make an enemy out of Duan Ling Tian. “Very well.” Duan Ling Tian nodded. “Tell Supreme Elder Lei that I have no grievances with him since it was his disciple that provoked me. Now that Long Xiao is dead and paid the price for his actions, I won’t act against Supreme Elder Lei as long as he doesn’t go against me.”

These were the words Shi Tong Ming was hoping to hear when he came to the Linghu clan’s estate. He smiled as he cupped his fists at Duan Ling Tian before he said with a bow, “Revered Elder Duan, I thank you on behalf of my master. I’ll take my leave now.”

After Shi Tong Ming returned to the restaurant in Linghu City to meet Supreme Elder Lei, the duo did not waste time and returned to the Hidden Fog Sect immediately.

After returning to the Hidden Fog Sect, Supreme Elder Lei looked for Qian Yin, the Sect Leader of the Hidden Fog Sect, and told Qian Yin about everything he had heard in Linghu City. Finally, he said in a deep voice, “In my opinion, we shouldn’t make an enemy out of Duan Ling Tian. Even if we disregard his background, someone like him will definitely rise to the peak in the future. In fact, there’s a possibility that in just a few years, he’d be strong enough to deal with our sect on his own. Moreover, you know what it means for an alchemist capable of refining Limit Divine Pills.”

Qian Yin’s expressions changed when he heard Supreme Elder Lei’s words. Similar to Supreme Elder Lei, after weighing the pros and cons, he came to the same conclusion as Supreme Elder Lei did. He nodded as he said, “You’re right. As Long Xiao’s master, you’ve already let go of this matter, there’s no reason for me not to let go of this matter.” Then, he paused before he said decisively, “The Hidden Fog Sect is no longer an enemy of Duan Ling Tian.

Supreme Elder Lei nodded before he looked at Qian Yin meaningfully and said, “There’s one more thing. Stop the rumors about Duan Ling Tian’s betraying our sect. We don’t know what consequences these rumors would bring if we let them run rampant.”

Qian Yin smiled sheepishly. “So you’re aware of everything.”

“Have you forgotten that I know you very well?”

When Supreme Elder Lei was about to leave, Qian Yin hurriedly said, “Supreme Elder Lei, please speak to Supreme Elder Feng on my behalf. I’m afraid he won’t listen to me.”

“I know,” Supreme Elder said toneless, “I’ll speak to him now.”

Similarly, Supreme Elder Lei told Supreme Elder Feng everything he had told Qian Yin.

Supreme Elder Feng fell deep into his thoughts after listening to Supreme Elder Lei. He thought about how Supreme Elder Lei and Qian Yin had decided not to make an enemy out of Duan Ling Tian for a moment before he nodded expressionlessly, “I understand.” “Supreme Elder Feng, just let it go. Who knows when we’ll be killed by the Heavenly Tribulation? Do you want to die ahead of time? Although what I said has yet to happen, there’s no doubt it’ll happen sooner or later,” Supreme Elder Lei said with a sigh.

“I know.” Supreme Elder Feng nodded with a faint smile on his face. Seeing this, Supreme Elder Lei left, feeling more at ease.

As soon as Supreme Elder Lei left, the smile on Supreme Elder Feng’s face vanished immediately and was replaced by a sneer. His eyes shone icily as he muttered to himself, “It’s easy for you to let the matter go since Long Xiao wasn’t related to you by blood. However, Xiong Feng is my grandson. Most importantly, he’s my only descendant! How can I give up on avenging my grandson?” After the outburst, Supreme Elder Feng calmed down and thought about how Duan Ling Tian had come from Skywind City. After a moment, he decided to leave the Hidden Fog Sect for Skywind City.

Skywind City was one of the small cities near the Hidden Fog Sect. The most powerful force in the city was the Hidden Fog Academy that belonged to the Hidden Fog Sect.

When Supreme Elder Feng arrived at Skywind City, he did not go to the Hidden Fog Academy or contact anyone from the academy.

For a month, he stayed in the city to gather information about Duan Ling Tian before he returned to the Hidden Fog Sect. “Duan Ling Tian has two close friends in the academy: Ding Yan and Huo Qing Ning. Ding Yan suddenly left the academy without a word, and Hou Qing Ning is the Young Master of the king-rank sect. I’ll bid my time for now. Perhaps, I can use Hou Qing Ning to force Duan Ling Tian out of the Linghu clan’s estate.”

Supreme Elder Feng calmed down a lot now that he had a plan in mind.

Meanwhile, Supreme Elder Lei and Qian Yin were naturally unaware of Supreme Elder Feng’s thoughts. They believed Supreme Elder Feng had dismissed the idea of avenging Shangguan Xiong Feng.

Qian Yin had also ordered people to stop the rumors of Duan Ling Tian’s betrayal. Apart from that, he also made it clear that Duan Ling Tian only killed Shangguan Xiong Feng and Long Xiao out of self-defense. Apart from making it clear that the Hidden Fog Sect had no enmity with Duan Ling Tian, he also released a statement wishing Duan Ling Tian well in the Linghu clan.
