Chapter 3869 - Underworld Elders


Chapter 3869: Underworld Elders

Normally, the Vice Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall, also a Black Dragon Elder, had the right to make the decisions, especially when the parties involved were just inner elders. However, it was different this time since Duan Ling Tian was one of the parties involved.

Everyone in the Flying Dragon Sect knew that Duan Ling Tian was the strongest King of Gods in the sect. He was a prodigy valued by the Sect Leader of the Flying Dragon Sect.

For this reason, the Vice Hall Master of the Law Enforcement informed the Sect Leader of the Flying Dragon Sect immediately after he found out about the matter.

“Kuang Tian Zheng, an inner elder, tried to assassinate Duan Ling Tian?” Long Qing Chong’s expression darkened as soon as he heard about what happened.

Long Qing Chong had specially rewarded Duan Ling Tian for his contributions on the King Battlefield in the Imperial War Realm. There was no doubt that Duan Ling Tian had brought honor and glory to the Flying Dragon Sect. He did not expect that someone would dare to try and kill Duan Ling Tian in the Flying Dragon Sect’s estate.

“Sect leader, I’ll proceed to execute Kuang Tian Zheng according to the rules of the Law Enforcement Hall.”

Long Qing Chong scoffed. “After you execute Kuang Tian Zheng, execute his relatives and disciples, except for Zhong Can, who are in the sect as well.”

The Vice Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall naturally knew that Long Qing Chong had spared Zhong Can because Zhong Can’s father-in-law was Xue Ming Zhi, a Vice Sect Leader of the Flying Dragon Sect. After a moment, I asked, “What reasons should I give for executing Kuang Tian Zheng’s relatives and disciples in the sect?”

“Do you still need me to teach you how to do things?” Long Qing Chong asked irritably.

“I understand,” the Vice Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall hurriedly replied.

…

When the Vice Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall appeared in front of Duan Ling Tian and Kuang Tian Zheng, he looked at Kuang Tian Zheng coldly before he raised his voice and said, “Kuang Tian Zheng disregarded the sect’s rules and tried to kill Duan Ling Tian. I hereby sentence him to death.”

Although Kuang Tian Zheng was already prepared for this outcome, his expression still changed upon hearing his sentence.

The Vice Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall continued to say, “All of Kuang Tian Zheng’s disciples, with the exception of Zhong Can; his second disciple, are also sentenced to death for aiding and abetting. Enforcement Team 1, arrest them immediately.”

Following that, a group of cultivators left the hall.

Kuang Tian Zheng’s expression changed drastically upon hearing the second sentence. He said anxiously, “Vice Hall Master Qin, this has nothing to do with them. I acted on my own! I…”

Before Kuang Tian Zheng finished speaking, the Vice Hall Master of the Law Enforcement interjected expressionlessly, “Kuang Tian Zheng’s blood relatives are also charged with aiding and abetting. They’re also sentenced to death.”

Kuang Tian Zheng was on the brink of collapse at this moment. “Vice Hall Master Qin…”

The Vice Hall Master said, “Enforcement Team 2, arrest those people.”

“Understood!”

Another group of people left the hall.

“No!” Kuang Tian Zheng cried out with an expression of resentment and unwillingness. He fell to his knees and said, “Vice Hall Master Qin, they don’t know anything about this. They had no idea I was going to try and kill Duan Ling Tian!”

However, the Vice Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall only waved his hand, releasing a surge of energy directed at Kuang Tian Zheng.

Bang!

Just like that, Kuang Tian Zheng died. His mournful cries were abruptly cut off.

It was as silent as a graveyard in the Law Enforcement Hall.

Everyone in the Enforcement Hall, including the elders, disciples, and three White Dragon Elders, was dumbfounded by the outcome. Not only was Kuang Tian Zheng executed, but his relatives and his disciples, except for Zhong Can, were going to be executed as well. They did not expect the sect would go to such an extent for Duan Ling Tian’s sake.

When they looked at Duan Ling Tian again, a hint of fear could be seen in their eyes.

Naturally, these people did not believe that all of Kuang Tian Zheng’s disciples and relatives had helped him. However, since the Vice Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall had said so, it would be accepted as the truth.

They also knew this outcome was decided by either the Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall or the Sect Leader of the Flying Dragon Sect. Based on this alone, one could see how much importance the sect placed on Duan Ling Tian; even Green Dragon Disciples could not compare to him.

Meanwhile, Duan Ling Tian, as one of the parties involved, was also stunned by the outcome. He had assumed only Kuang Tian Zheng would be executed; he did not expect all of Kuang Tian Zheng’s relatives and disciples, except for Zhong Can, would be executed as well. Needless to say, he also knew why Zhong Can alone was spared. Zhong Can was the son-in-law of Xue Ming Zhi, a Vice Sect Leader of the Flying Dragon Sect, after all.

‘Why did the Law Enforcement Hall do this? I don’t know the vice hall master… Does he have a good relationship with Brother Hai Chuan or Brother Yan Nian? However, that’s unlikely…’ Duan Ling Tian wondered inwardly.

At this moment, the Vice Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall, who was an old man with ruddy cheeks dressed in a gray robe, looked at Duan Ling Tian kindly and asked, “Duan Ling Tian, are you satisfied with the way the sect handled this matter?”

Duan Ling Tian returned to his senses and hurriedly nodded. “Yes, Vice Hall Master. Thank you for seeking justice on my behalf!”

Since a long time ago, when he was still in the mundane realm, he knew it was important to cut off all sources of trouble. He did not expect that this time, the Flying Dragon Sect would do it for him.

“This is what the sect leader ordered,” the Vice Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall said. He did not dare to claim the credit. Then, he continued saying through Voice Transmission, “The sect leader values you very much. When he found out about Kuang Tian Zheng, he personally ordered for the execution of Kuang Tian Zheng and the others.”

“The sect leader?” Duan Ling Tian was slightly surprised. However, after thinking about it, he thought he should have thought about this possibility sooner. After all, even if the other party was the Vice Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall, the other party was not qualified to make such a call.

After all, Kuang Tian Zheng was not just a simple inner elder of the Flying Dragon Sect. He belonged to the 10,000 Devils faction and had the support of two White Dragon Elders. Most importantly, he had the support of Xue Ming Zhi as well.

Finally, Duan Ling Tian asked, “Vice hall master, I’d like to thank the sect leader in person. Is it convenient for me to meet him now?”

“I’ll ask the sect leader,” the Vice Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall said before sending a message to Long Qing Chong. After receiving a reply, he looked at Duan Ling Tian and said, “Duan Ling Tian, the sect leader said that he’ll see you after you enter the Imperial War Realm’s Lord Battlefield and kill an Underworld Elder of the Tai Yi Sect. At that time, he’ll give you a huge gift.”

Upon hearing this, Duan Ling Tian smiled wryly. “The sect leader truly has high expectations for me.”

During Duan Ling Tian’s time on the King Battlefield, he had learned that, similar to the Flying Dragon Sect, there were different kinds of elders in the Tai Yi Sect as well.

Similar to the Flying Dragon Sects, there were also inner and outer elders in the Tai Yi Sect. Supreme Elders of the Tai Yi Sect were like Golden Dragon Elders in the Flying Dragon Sect. Then, in between the inner elders and the supreme elders were Profound Heaven Elders and the Underworld Elders.

The Profound Heaven Elders were like the Black Dragon Elders in the Flying Dragon Sect while the Underworld Elders were like the White Dragon Elders in the Flying Dragon Sect.

In other words, Long Qing Chong wanted Duan Ling Tian to kill someone whose strength was that of a White Dragon Elder.

After a moment, Duan Ling Tian asked, “Vice hall master, it’s been six or seven years since the Imperial War started. Up until now, how many Underworld Elders had fallen?”

The Vice Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall sighed. “Only one. Just a month ago, he was killed by Elder Xue Hai Chuan. On the other hand, our sect has lost two White Dragon Elders. News of this has yet to spread.”

Duan Ling Tian nodded upon hearing those words. As expected, it was not easy to kill the Underworld Elders of the Tai Yi Sect.

Since advanced Lords of Gods could not enter the Lord Battlefield, this meant that intermediate Lords of Gods were the strongest on the battlefield.

“From the reports we received, those two White Dragon Elders only died because they were careless and fell into the trap of several Underworld Elders. Duan Ling Tian, since the sect leader has spoken those words, it shows that he thinks highly of you!”

Although the Vice Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall thought Long Qing Chong’s request was a little unrealistic as well, he did not want to demotivate Duan Ling Tian.

Duan Ling Tian thought to himself, feeling speechless, ‘Does the sect leader think the Lord Battlefield is like the King Battlefield?’

Duan Ling Tian was able to dominate the King Battlefield previously because of his superior comprehension of the law of space and other factors. Moreover, he, as an advanced King of Gods, was the strongest on the King Battlefield. However, the Lord Battlefield was very different. He was just a rudimentary Lord of Gods while the strongest there were intermediate Lords of Gods. Furthermore, those Lords of Gods also had a profound comprehension of the laws. Currently, he did not think he was even able to defeat an ordinary intermediate Lord of Gods. He might be able to fight to a draw or defeat them only if he did not hold back at all. Naturally, it was impossible for him to not hold back. Exposing his true strength would only bring him trouble, after all.
