War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

“Wen Yan, have you gone insane?” Duan Ling Tian’s cold voice rang loudly in the Fire Remuneration Palace that had fallen completely silent.

At this instant, everybody in the Fire Remuneration Palace could feel the tension in the air between Duan Ling Tian and Wen Yan. It seemed as though they were about to fight.

When Wen Yan saw Duan Ling Tian looking at her as though she was an idiot and heard the words he said, she became so furious that her body began to tremble. Her expression turned uglier as her eyes turned even colder. The flame of fury in her heart burned even hotter.

When she learned the person before her was Duan Ling Tian, Wen Yan had thought to torture him until he wished he was dead before letting him crawl out of the Fire Remuneration Palace. However, she thought the punishment was too light. Therefore, she had abruptly said, “I’ll give you a chance. Kneel and kowtow to me as an apology. On top of that, let me slap you ten times! Otherwise, I’ll make you crawl out the door today!”

Duan Ling Tian slapping her in public was a great humiliation to her. She knew it would not take long before news of this began to circulate in the Fire Worship Sect’s Saint Land and the Four Symbols Sanctums. Therefore, she knew she could not let Duan Ling Tian off so easily.

For this reason, Wen Yan did not act rashly and even suppress her fury. She wanted Duan Ling Tian to kowtow to her and apologize. On top of that, she would beat him up after she had slapped him ten times. She would make Duan Ling Tian wish he was dead and make him crawl out of the Fire Remuneration Palace! However, she did not expect Duan Ling Tian would be so daring and said that she had gone insane. It seemed like he thought nothing of her.

Wen Yan could no longer suppress the fury in her heart!

“Duan Ling Tian, you’re seeking death!” Wen Yan hissed. Her fury that was suppressed had completely erupted at this point.

In the next instant, a powerful aura surged out of Wen Yan’s body like a typhoon, causing many Saint Land disciples with a low cultivation base to feel suffocated. It was Wen Yan’s Saint Origin at the Second Form of the Saint Celestial Stage.

Duan Ling Tian instantly put up his guard. The Sun Saint Energy in his body traveled through the 99 Saint Veins and covered the surface of his body. At this moment, his eyes had turned cold.

When the energy from Wen Yan reached its highest point, and she was about to make her move…

“Hurmph!” A cold snort rang in the Fire Remuneration Palace’s Inner Palace. It was as though a bucket of cold water had been poured on her.

“Get lost from the Fire Remuneration Palace if both of you want to fight! The Fire Remuneration Palace is not a place where you can act you please!” The cold voice said from the Fire Remuneration Palace’s inner palace. It was the voice of the custodian of the Fire Remuneration Palace.

The Fire Remuneration Palace’s custodian was a Saint Land’s Silver Flame Elder. Only the custodian of the Fire Remuneration Palace would dare to speak to Wen Yan in such a way.

Although the few Bronze Flame Elders in the Fire Remuneration Palace were considered as elders in the Fire Worship Sect, they might not be a match for Wen Yan. For this reason, they did not dare to order Wen Yan around.

After taking a deep breath, Wen Yan looked at Duan Ling Tian coldly before she turned to walk out of the Fire Remuneration Palace. As though she was afraid Duan Ling Tian would hide in the Fire Remuneration Palace, she said, “I’ll wait for you outside the Fire Remuneration Palace. Don’t be a coward if you’re a man!”

“Hurmph!” Duan Ling Tian snorted coldly before he said indifferently, “It’s not up to you to decide if I’m a man or not! If it’s another woman, I might have asked them to have a try and see if I’m a man. However, I really can’t bring myself to say such words to you. Even if you strip naked in front of me, I wouldn’t be interested at all!”

When Duan Ling Tian learned that Ke’er and their daughter were imprisoned in the Enforcement Hall due to Wen Yan, his anger had been roused. He hated Wen Yan whom he had never met to the core.

If it was not for Wen Yan, Ke’er would not be caught in this perilous situation.

For this reason, Duan Ling Tian’s anger had erupted when he saw Wen Yan today! That was why he had intentionally blocked her path and slapped her!

Duan Ling Tian was aware ever since his soul had come to this world, his temperament was no longer indifferent like it was in his former life due to the influences from his family and friends here.

From the beginning, Duan Ling Tian was not someone who would blindly look for trouble. However, when he saw Wen Yan today, he could not hold back his temper and directly slapped her.

Every dragon had a reverse scale, if one touched it, one would absolutely die! Ke’er was his reverse scale! For Ke’er’s sake, he would even go against the whole world!

Gasp! Gasp! Gasp! Gasp! Gasp!

The Saint Land disciples gasped when they heard Duan Ling Tian’s words.

‘Even if you strip naked in front of me, I wouldn’t be interested at all!’ This was undoubtedly a cruel statement to a woman since it called to question the woman’s charm!

No matter how powerful a woman was, she would still yearn to be acknowledged by a man. Duan Ling Tian’s statement had completely denied Wen Yan’s charm!

Wen Yan who had just reached the entrance of the Fire Remuneration Palace came to a halt as her body trembled even more.

“I’ll wait for you outside!” She said coldly before she quickly left the Fire Remuneration Palace. It was as though she was afraid she could not hold back and would attack Duan Ling Tian if she continued to stay on.

If that happened, the custodian of the Fire Remuneration Palace would definitely intervene in this matter.

No matter how confident Wen Yan was in her own strength, she was not so arrogant to think she was a match for the custodian of the Fire Remuneration Palace.

The Fire Remuneration Palace’s custodian was not only the Fire Worship Sect’s Saint Land’s Silver Flame Elder, but as a custodian of a palace, his strength was ranked in the top among all Silver Flame Elders. His cultivation base had entered the Fourth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage.

After Wen Yan left, a Saint Land disciple looked at Duan Ling Tian as he said, “Duan Ling Tian is too cruel, right?”

“What kind of enmity does Duan Ling Tian and Senior Sister Wen Yan have? Not only did he slap Senior Sister Wen Yan publicly, but he even denounced her charm as a woman. To a woman, that’s even worse than death!”

“How cruel!”

“I won’t be able to hold back and would instantly attack him if I were Senior Sister Wen Yan!”

“Senior Sister Wen Yan won’t let go of him today unless he hides in the Fire Remuneration Palace.”

“Where did he get his confidence from? To think he’s so bold as to humiliate Senior Sister Wen Yan like this? Don’t tell me he’s confident that he’s stronger than her?”

“Humph! He didn’t underestimate Senior Sister Wen Yan and thinks she’s a soft persimmon like Yang Wen, right?”

The Saint Land disciples whispered among themselves. None of them thought he was a match for Wen Yan.

After all, Wen Yan was ranked ninth on the True Ranking. Her strength had long been imprinted in their minds.

Duan Ling Tian, on the other hand, seemed inferior to them despite having killed Yang Wen.

Naturally, Duan Ling Tian had also heard the whispering from the Saint Land disciples.

However, was he someone who would hide in the Fire Remuneration Palace out of fear of Wen Yan? Of course not.

Duan Ling Tian strode out boldly and determinedly. From the beginning until the end, he did not hesitate at all. If he was afraid of Wen Yan, he would not have blocked her path and slapped her!

“H-He actually walked out?”

“I-is he really not afraid of death?”

“Death? Senior Sister won’t simply kill or cripple him as long as the Fire Worship Sect’s rule is in effect!”

“Even so, judging from Senior Sister Wen Yan’s anger, Duan Ling Tian is going to have his skin flayed even if he’s not killed or crippled!”

“That’s for sure!”

When Duan Ling Tian walked out of the Fire Remuneration Palace, the group of Saint Land disciples in the Fire Remuneration Palace also left immediately. Currently, only a few Bronze Flame Elders were left in the Fire Remuneration Palace.

These few Fire Remuneration Palace’s Bronze Flame Elders who were on duty behind the counters were actually eager to leave the Fire Remuneration Palace to watch the show as well. However, they did not dare to shirk their duties.

“There shouldn’t be anyone coming to the Fire Remuneration Palace to put up or accept assignments for the time being. If any of you want to have a look, just go.” At this moment, a voice rang out in the Fire Remuneration Palace. It was the voice of the custodian of the Fire Remuneration Palace.

Upon hearing this, the few Fire Remuneration Palace’s elders no longer hesitated as they left the Fire Remuneration Palace one after another. They wanted to know how this incident would end.

Naturally, they were more inclined toward Wen Yan. She was a powerhouse who was ranked ninth on the True Ranking after all, and her strength was widely acknowledged!

The moment Duan Ling Tian walked out from the Fire Remuneration Palace, he saw Wen Yan standing in the distance. She was standing in an empty area in the Central Square as she looked at him coldly.

Under the watchful eyes of the others, Duan Ling Tian only looked at her indifferently and ignored her after he walked out of the Fire Remuneration Palace.

In the next instant, he rose up into the air to leave.
