Chapter 3870 - Thank You, Father-In-Law


Chapter 3870: Thank You, Father-In-Law

‘Regardless, my path to becoming a Lord of Gods is much easier compared to others.’

After becoming a Lord of Gods, the cultivation journey would become 100 times harder. Duan Ling Tian only spent a short time as King of Gods before he became a Lord of Gods. He knew he was really lucky. Going forward, it would be considered amazing if he took less than 100 years to become an Emperor of Gods. Fortunately, he had obtained various treasures in the Divine Sanctuary left behind by Emperor of Gods Qin Wu that would help with his cultivation after becoming a Lord of Gods.

Duan Ling Tian sincerely wanted to thank Long Qing Chong for helping him with Kuang Tian Zheng’s matter, but since Long Qing Chong had refused to see him, he did not insist as well. At this time, he was very intrigued by the reward that Long Qing Chong mentioned if he was able to kill an Underworld Elder of the Tai Yi Sect. He had no doubt the reward would be extraordinary.

Duan Ling Tian sighed. ‘However, based on my current strength, it’d be difficult for me to kill an Underworld Elder. In any case, I still have to enter the Lord Battlefield. It shouldn’t be difficult for me to kill ordinary rudimentary Lords of Gods. I’ll try to accumulate more war points so I can exchange them for the things I need. Hopefully, I’ll be able to accumulate enough war points to exchange for all the things I need.’

After bidding farewell to the Vice Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall, as Duan Ling Tian walked out of the hall and made his way to the Imperial War Realm, the three White Dragon Elders and the others in the hall looked at Duan Ling Tian with a hint of respect in their eyes. With today’s event, there was no doubt that everyone in the Flying Dragon Sect would no longer treat Duan Ling Tian as an ordinary inner disciple. After all, the punishment meted out by the Law Enforcement Hall today showed how special Duan Ling Tian was. This kind of punishment would not be possible if it were another inner disciple who was involved.

…

After Duan Ling Tian entered the Imperial War Realm for the second time, news of Kuang Tian Zheng attempting to kill Duan Ling Tian spread throughout the Flying Dragon Sect like a wildfire.

“Elder Kuang Tian Zheng tried to kill Duan Ling Tian?”

“What kind of enmity did they have between them that forced Kuang Tian Zheng to try to kill Duan Ling Tian in the sect’s estate?”

“Rumor has it that Duan Ling Tian was responsible for Chu Han’s death. Chu Han is Elder Kuang’s youngest direct disciple. I heard about this from my friend who’s in the 10,000 Devils faction.”

Everyone was shocked by the news. They were further shocked when they found that Duan Ling Tian survived the assassination attempt.

“Elder Kuang was one of the strongest inner elders! How could he fail to kill a King of Gods?”

“Although Duan Ling Tian is the strongest King of Gods, Elder Kuang, a Lord of Gods, should have been able to kill Duan Ling Tian with just a strike, right?”

“I wonder if Elder Kuang made a mistake because he was too rash?”

It did not take long before another two pieces of news that were even more shocking spread.

“Duan Ling Tian is now a Lord of Gods?!”

“Kuang Tian Zheng used his bloodline power that could kill most rudimentary Lords of Gods, and yet, he still failed to kill Duan Ling Tian!”

“The Law Enforcement Hall executed Kuang Tian Zheng immediately?!”

“That’s not too surprising! What’s shocking is that all of Kuang Tian Zheng’s blood relatives and disciples, except for Zhong Chan, have been sentenced to death!”

Perhaps, out of the various news they received, they were most shocked when they found all of Kuang Tian Zheng’s relatives and disciples, except for Zhong Can, were implicated and also sentenced to death.

“I heard that Kuang Tian Zheng’s relatives and disciples will be executed tomorrow…”

“Zhong Can wouldn’t have been able to avoid this disaster if he weren’t Vice Sect Leader Xue’s son-in-law!”

“Heavens! The sect is determined to get rid of those who’re connected to Kuang Tian Zheng!”

“The Law Enforcement Hall is very fair, and they don’t punish indiscriminately. Perhaps, all those people also helped Kuang Tian Zheng to plot Duan Ling Tian’s death.”

Most people thought the Law Enforcement Hall’s punishment was fair. Except for those in the know, most people were unaware that the punishment was so severe due to Duan Ling Tian’s special status. Such a serious punishment could only be ordered by the Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall, who was also a Golden Dragon Elder, or the Sect Leader of the Flying Dragon Sect.

…

In a remote valley in the Flying Dragon Sect’s estate.

A terrified young man kneeled in front of a middle-aged man.

A young and beautiful woman stood next to the kneeling young man and looked at the middle-aged man as she said, throwing a tantrum, “Father, please help Zhong Can save his seniors, juniors, and his master’s relatives!”

The kneeling young man was none other than Zhong Can, and the beautiful young woman was his wife, who was also Xue Ming Zhi’s daughter. Needless to say, the middle-aged man was none other than Xue Ming Zhi, one of the Vice Sect Leaders of the Flying Dragon Sect.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

Xue Ming Zhi tapped his fingers on the stone table he was sitting in front of. A hint of helplessness could be seen in his eyes, and his expression was grim. Silence descended suddenly when he suddenly stopped tapping his fingers. Finally, he looked at Zhong Can, who was kneeling in front of him, and said in a low voice, “Before your master made his move, I promised him to look after his relatives and disciples if he died.”

Zhong Can’s eyes lit up immediately upon hearing these words. However, they dimmed again when he heard Xue Ming Zhi’s next words.

“However, there’s nothing I can do to save them now.”

Zhong Can’s expression changed drastically, and his wife frowned slightly.

“I really can’t save them. I’ve investigated the matter. The order came from the sect leader. With this, you should understand why there’s nothing I can do,” Xue Ming Zhi said.

An expression of disbelief appeared on Zhong Can’s face as he asked, “It’s the sect leader’s order? H-how’s this possible?”

Xue Ming Zhi shook his head. “I couldn’t believe it as well when I first heard about it. However, I’ve investigated it, and it’s true. The sect leader highly values Duan Ling Tian due to Duan Ling Tian’s talent in cultivation and alchemy. Even if a prodigy like Duan Ling Tian leaves the Flying Dragon Sect in the future, the sect will still benefit greatly from him. It’s not surprising that the sect leader wants to maintain a good relationship with him.” Then, he looked at Zhong Can meaningfully before he continued to say, “If you weren’t my son-in-law, you wouldn’t have been spared. Do you understand?”

After a brief moment of silence, Zhong Can nodded and said, “I understand.” Then, killing intent surged in his eyes as he rose to his feet and asked, “Father-in-law, what’s your plan next?”

Zhong Can naturally knew his father-in-law would not let the matter go so easily unless he reconciled with Duan Ling Tian. However, at this point, reconciliation was absolutely impossible.

However, Zhong Can’s wife did not seem to know her father as well as her husband did. She said, “Father, you can’t let him off! Elder Kuang was like a father to Zhong Can! You have to avenge him!”

Xue Ming Zhi looked at his daughter and sighed. “You shouldn’t get involved in this matter.”

The woman pursed her lips and did not say anything.

Xue Ming Zhi turned to Zhong Can and said, “I have my plan. There’s nothing you can do to help so I won’t explain it to you. Go home and wait for my news. Perhaps, you’ll receive news of Duan Ling Tian’s death after you emerge from closed-door cultivation.”

Zhong Can and his wife’s expressions brightened upon hearing Xue Ming Zhi’s words.

Zhong Can fell to his knees and kowtowed as he said, “Thank you, father-in-law!”

Zhong Can’s wife smiled brightly as she said, “Thank you, father!”

“Alright, leave,” Xue Ming Zhi said, dismissing the duo.

Following that, Zhong Can brought his wife away from Xue Ming Zhi’s cultivation ground.
