War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

4555 The Fu Clan

After returning to the Outer Boundary, Duan Ling Tian inhaled deeply. His mindset now was completely different from before. Back then, when he had just arrived, he felt as though he was constantly walking on thin ice, worried that he would run into malicious supreme powerhouses who might kill him. Although he survived in the end, he had nearly died.

‘The Crimson Demon from the Crimson Demon Ridge…’

Until now, Duan Ling Tian did not forget how he strayed into the Crimson Demon Ridge when he first arrived. At that time, he had been imprisoned by the Crimson Demon, a supreme powerhouse. The Crimson Demon had imprisoned many people at that time, hoping to find a suitable body to possess among the prisoners. This was because he was not certain he would be able to survive his upcoming once-in-ten-thousand-year Heavenly Tribulation; he wanted to avoid the Heavenly Tribulation by possessing another body using the technique unique to his clan.

‘Wait… I almost forgot about that…’

Duan Ling Tian was reminded about the token he received when he thought about the Crimson Demon.

While he was imprisoned by the Crimson Demon and forced to go through various tests, he became acquainted with Wang Yi Yuan. Before Wang Yi Yuan died, Wang Yi Yuan had given him a round token and asked him to look after his sister. Later on, after escaping, he looked for Wang Yi Yuan’s sister and helped Wang Yi Yuan to fulfill his final wish. The token was the key to a Realm of Origin left by a level-five supreme powerhouse, a demi Saint, and there was a spirit living in the token.

With this thought in mind, Duan Ling Tian said to the spirit in the token, “I’ve broken into the realm of supreme powerhouses now. Was the Realm of Origin created by your former master? Or was the Realm of Origin created by a supreme powerhouse before the gap in history and was found by your former master?”

Duan Ling Tian had been into a Realm of Origin before, and he knew a thing or two about it. He knew that Realms of Origins could only be created by supreme powerhouses from before the gap in history.

After listening to the spirit, Duan Ling Tian discovered that the token did not hold the key to a Realm of Origin, but an independent realm. The creator was an imminent World supreme powerhouse, and there were many fortuitous encounters in the independent realm.

Alas, the independent realm was useless to him now. After all, he was now a level-seven supreme powerhouse. How could the independent realm of a level-five supreme powerhouse be useful to him? Even if the realm contained treasures he did not have, with his strength now, it would not be difficult for him to obtain them.

‘In any case, I’ll go and have a look when I have the time… Perhaps, there are useful things in there for the others…’

As for the spirit of the circular token, it had spoken to the Divine Tree of Life and the World Cleansing Divine Water. As such, it was aware that Duan Ling Tian was now a level-seven supreme powerhouse. As such, it knew that Duan Ling Tian might not be interested in the things its former master left behind.

The spirit of the token sighed inwardly. It thought that its former master probably did not expect that his legacy would be found by a level-seven supreme powerhouse. It was a level that its former master did not even dream of reaching in the past.

…

The Fu clan was a demi-saint-rank governed by the Azure Cloud Saint Sect in the Outer Boundary’s Sacred Lightning Realm. It was considered an ordinary demi-saint-rank force among the many demi-saint-rank forces under the Azure Cloud Saint Sect. For that reason, the Fu clan did not have much of a presence. However, a few years ago, the Fu clan became one of the strongest demi-saint-rank forces governed by the Azure Cloud Saint Sect because the clan gained a second demi Saint whose name was Fu Liang Yu.

At this time, Duan Ling Tian arrived in the territory of the Azure Cloud Saint Sect in the Sacred Lightning Realm. After asking around, he also learned that there were two demi Saints in the Fu clan now.

‘Fu Liang Yu… This name sounds familiar…’

After a moment, realization dawned on Duan Ling Tian.

‘I remember now! Fu Liang Yu was the person I met at the transportation site in the Azure Cloud Saint Sect’s territory after I returned from the God Defying World with Sister Wei!’

At this time, Duan Ling Tian could vividly remember the dark expression on Fu Liang Yu’s face when Fu Liang Yu came over to greet Duan You Wei. Fu Liang Yu played a huge role in Duan You Wei’s death. After all, Fu Liang Yu was the one who alerted the demi Saint of the Fu clan at that time of Duan You Wei’s presence. Subsequently, the demi Saint from the Fu clan joined forces with two people and hunted Duan You Wei down before killing her. Without Fu Liang Yu, the demi Saint from the Fu clan would not have known that Duan You Wei was in the territory of the Azure Cloud Saint Sect at all.

‘Sister Wei was killed by the demi Saint from your Fu clan, but it seems like you’ve been thriving all this time and even became a demi Saint…’

Duan Ling Tian’s eyes flashed with cold killing intent.

Duan Ling Tian was about to ask for directions to the Fu clan when he suddenly overheard someone in the restaurant he was in saying that he saw the Young Master of the Fu clan entering a room upstairs.

‘This is great! I found someone to lead the way for me…’

In just a moment…

Boom!

The door to the private room was blasted open, shocking the few people inside.

The expressions of the few young people sitting around the table were rather unsightly at this moment. After a brief moment, one of them rose to his feet and glared at the purple-clad Duan Ling Tian, who walked into the room nonchalantly, as he asked, “Who are you? Do you have a death wish?”

Despite Duan Ling Tian’s nonchalance, a hint of killing intent could be seen in his eyes at this moment. He swept his eyes across the people in the room as he asked, “Which one of you is from the Fu clan?”

The young man who had stood up earlier looked at Duan Ling Tian murderously when he saw how arrogant Duan Ling Tian was. He barked, “How arrogant! An Nu, kill him!”

Subsequently, an old woman dressed in a green robe said before making a move, “Yes, Young Master!”

The old woman swept toward Duan Ling Tian confidently. She did not even bother to probe Duan Ling Tian with her Divine Consciousness. Although she was not among the most powerful advanced Supreme Gods, her strength was still above average. In her opinion, Duan Ling Tian was at most an advanced Supreme God and there was no way Duan Ling Tian was stronger than her. Moreover, she was from the Fu clan. This restaurant was owned by a force under the Fu clan. As such, she did not feel like she had anything to be afraid of.

When the old woman drew close to Duan Ling Tian, a streak of gray light shot out from Duan Ling Tian’s eyes, leaving spatial tears in its wake. When it landed on the old woman, she was instantly reduced to dust and vanished into thin air.

Then, Duan Ling Tian asked again, “Which one of you is from the Fu clan?”

This time, the people in the room had completely lost their arrogance. As for the young man who ordered the old woman to make a move, he was terrified. His face was pale and his body was trembling as he exclaimed, “A… A supreme powerhouse?!”

At the same time, the other people felt the huge pressure from Duan Ling Tian’s Divine Consciousness, and they quickly kneeled down. One of them did not hesitate at all and decisively betrayed the young man.

“Senior, he’s from the Fu clan! His name is Fu Hui!”

“That’s right! Senior, he’s the only one from the Fu clan among us!”

Although these people had supreme powerhouses in their respective forces, they rarely came in contact with the supreme powerhouses. Their statuses in their respective forces were not high after all. There was a chance that their supreme powerhouses would risk offending another supreme powerhouse for them.

As for Fu Hui, his grandfather was a supreme powerhouse, but he was only a level-one supreme powerhouse. Not only that, but he was also injured a few years ago and was still recuperating.
