War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

“The ancestor is dead?!”

“TT-This… Am I dreaming?”

“No… This is not a dream! It’s reality!”

“Heavens! The ancestor is a Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial, but he was killed by the purple-clad young man in just a blink of an eye!”

When the people from the Heavenly Wave Mansion regained their senses, they felt as though they were having a nightmare. The ancestor of the Heavenly Wave Mansion was a Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial, an existence at the pinnacle in the mundane realms. And yet, such an existence was killed in just an instant!

“Is he even human?”

“Can a Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial kill another Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial with such ease?”

“Is he only a Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial?”

The people from the Heavenly Wave Mansion looked at Duan Ling Tian in shock and disbelief. If the Eight Tribulation Bodiless Celestial from their mansion, a Supreme Elder, did not personally say their ancestor was dead, they would not believe that their ancestor had died so easily. Prior to today, their ancestor was like a god-like existence in their eyes after all. They did not expect someone would be able to kill their ancestor.

Meanwhile, Tang Xiao Xiao who was standing next to Duan Ling Tian fell to her knees and kowtowed in the direction of the Thousand Opportunities Galaxy where Tang Sect was located. Tears streamed down her beautiful face as she murmured, “Ancestor, did you see it? The old fart who killed you is dead! You can now rest in peace in the afterlife”

“My condolences, may he rest in peace!” Duan Ling Tian consoled Tang Xiao Xiao.

“En!” Tang Xiao Xiao nodded. After she rose to her feet, she added, “Let’s go…”

Duan Ling Tian swept a glance at the people from the Heavenly Wave Mansion, slightly surprised that Tang Xiao Xiao planned to let these people go.

Those who caught Duan Ling Tian’s eyes looked as though they had seen the Grim Reaper. They were frightened out of their wits. The purple-clad young man had easily killed their ancestor who was a Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial, it would be extremely easy for him to kill them.

Even Yang Qing Jian, the Mansion Master of the Heavenly Wave Mansion, and the other Eight Tribulation Bodiless Celestials looked at Duan Ling Tian in fear, afraid he would attack them next. They had witnessed Duan Ling Tian’s strength and knew that it would be as easy as killing an ant if he intended to kill them!

Tang Xiao Xiao was not one who would kill indiscriminately. When she saw the people from the Heavenly Wave Mansion trembling in fear when they looked at Duan Ling Tian, she lost all interest in pursuing the matter. “Since the culprit and the instigator are dead, as long as they stand aside and don’t cause trouble when we leave, I suggest letting them go.”

“En.” Duan Ling Tian nodded and respected Tang Xiao Xiao’s wishes. However, he did not wish to bring calamity to the Tang Sect. After all, there was only one Eight Tribulation Bodiless Celestial in the Tang Sect now while the Heavenly Wave Mansion still had two Eight Tribulation Bodiless Celestials. Although it would be difficult for the Heavenly Wave Mansion to annihilate the Tang Sect now, they could still cause considerable trouble. Hence, he said as he looked at Yang Qing Jian, the Mansion Master of the Heavenly Wave Sect, “From today onward, if the Heavenly Wave Mansion insists on holding a grudge against the Tang Sect, I, Duan Ling Tian, will rain disaster upon the mansion and annihilate every single soul in the mansion!”

Although Yang Qing Jian felt humiliated by Duan Ling Tian’s threat, he still nodded obediently. After all, he was inferior to Duan Ling Tian. Duan Ling Tian could even kill a Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial. It would not take much effort from Duan Ling Tian to completely annihilate the Heavenly Wave Mansion. Since it seemed like Duan Ling Tian had no interest in destroying the Heavenly Wave Mansion now, it was only wise for him to agree to Duan Ling Tian’s condition.

The remaining people from the Heavenly Wave Mansion did not even dare to let out a squeak. Some of them even sighed in relief when they realized Duan Ling Tian did not plan to kill them.

“Let’s go,” Duan Ling Tian said with a smile as he turned to Tang Xiao Xiao.

After both of them had left, the people from the Heavenly Wave Mansion sighed in relief.

“Mansion Master, who’s that guy? He’s able to forcefully snatch the ancestor’s Celestial Supreme Treasure and kill him in a blink of an eye!” The Eight Tribulation Bodiless Celestial, a Supreme Elder of Heavenly Wave Mansion, asked as he looked at Yang Qing Jian with a fearful expression on his face. Naturally, his fear was due to Duan Ling Tian, not Yang Qing Jian.

“I don’t know,” Yang Qing Jian shook his head and said, “According to him, he’s Duan Ling Tian. I’ve never heard of anyone like that in our Yan Huang Realm!” His voice trembled as he continued to say, “Just like the ancestor had said, even the strongest Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial in Yan Huang Realm from the Gongsun family wouldn’t be able to kill him so easily!”

Duan Ling Tian’s display of strength had completely crushed all of Yang Qing Jian’s thoughts of revenge.

“Duan Ling Tian…” The Eight Tribulation Bodiless Celestial muttered under his breath. Then, he turned to look at the others and asked, “Has anyone of you heard about him?”

Everyone shook their heads.

The members from the Heavenly Wave Mansion who had gone to the Beyond Heaven Secret Zone had yet to return. Otherwise, they would be able to tell these people about Duan Ling Tian. It would not be difficult for them to make the connection that the person who killed their ancestor and the famous person in the Beyond Heaven Secret Zone were the same person. After all, the techniques Duan Ling Tian used were the same!

At this moment, Yang Qing Jian, the Mansion Master of Heavenly Wave Mansion, looked at everyone and said in a deep voice that brooked no arguments, “Everyone! Swear on the lightning penalty oath! You’re not allowed to disclose what happened today to a single soul. Otherwise, you’ll be killed.” He had made the decision to force everyone to take an oath to contain the secret that the ancestor of the Heavenly Wave Mansion had died. After all, much of their strength and status came from the Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial ancestor. If news of this leaked, the mansion would definitely deteriorate to the level of the Tang Sect. Although Tang Sect could be considered as a first-rate force in Yan Huang Realm, it was like a minnow among the truly strong forces.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Claps of thunder rumbled non-stop in the Heavenly Wave Mansion for half an hour before they died down.

Unfortunately, Yang Qing Jian was unaware that prior to taking the lightning penalty oath, many people had already leaked news of what happened through communication jade tokens. Half a month had passed before he was made aware of this. At that time, it was too late for him to do anything.

News of Duan Ling Tian killing the Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial from the Heavenly Wave Mansion for the Tang Sect spread like a wildfire in the Heavenly Wave Galaxy and the neighboring galaxies.

“The Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial from the Heavenly Wave Mansion was killed by a purple-clad young man in their estate in front of the Mansion Master and members of the mansion! The purple-clad young man said he’s Duan Ling Tian!”

“I heard Duan Ling Tian is a mercenary whom Tang Xiao Xiao from the Tang Sect hired. I suspect he’s even stronger than that person from the Gongsun family!”

“That person from the Gongsun family is widely acknowledged as the strongest Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial in Yan Huang Realm. Even someone like that wouldn’t carelessly say he’s able to easily kill another Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial!”

“According to rumors, Duan Ling Tian has mastered a very mysterious technique. The Sword Formation he used is made from tens of thousands of sword rays and can snatch his opponents’ Celestial Supreme Treasure.”

“I heard he used this technique to snatch the Celestial Supreme Treasures from the Heavenly Wave Mansion’s Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial before he killed him.”

When the rumors finally reached the Thousand Opportunities Galaxy where the Tang Sect was located, Tang Chong, the Sect Leader of Tang Sect, was dumbfounded.

“That… That Duan Ling Tian really killed that old guy from Heavenly Wave Mansion? Unbelievable!” He was speechless even though he had seen Duan Ling Tian’s strength in the past. When he regained his senses, he murmured to himself, “Xiao Xiao has made an amazing friend.”
