War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

After Duan Ling Tian entered the Enforcement Hall’s Main Hall, he saw a spacious hall with rows of counters in three directions. Several Enforcement Hall’s elders were standing behind the counters.

However, currently, there was no queue in front of most of the counters. Only one counter had three people lining up in front of it. Based on their clothing, it was obvious they were Saint Land disciples from the Fire Worship Sect. They seemed to be waiting for something as they stood in line in front of the counter.

“That person seems familiar…” At the same time, after one of the two true disciples who entered the Main Hall before Duan Ling Tian heard the sound of wind-whistling behind him and instinctively turned to look. He found Duan Ling Tian familiar but could not recall where he had seen him before for the time being.

When the other true disciple heard him, he turned around to look as well. As soon as he saw Duan Ling Tian, he furrowed his eyebrows as his eyes widened!

“I-isn’t he Duan Ling Tian?!” He could not help but cry out in surprise.

Duan Ling Tian!

Since the true disciple did not lower his voice, his words were heard by those in the reception area of the Enforcement Hall’s Main Hall.

Apart from shocking his companion, his words had also attracted the attention of the few Enforcement Hall’s elders standing behind the counters and the three other true disciples who were standing further away.

Duan Ling Tian immediately became the center of attention.

“Huh?” Duan Ling Tian did not expect to be recognized instantly the moment he arrived. Faced with everyone’s eyes that were trained on him, he smiled and nodded at the crowd.

His politeness caused the crowd to be confused as well.

The three true disciples standing further away looked at each other. They could see the confusion and disbelief in each other’s eyes. One of them even bluntly asked, “Is he really Duan Ling Tian?”

“I’m pretty sure it’s him! I’ve seen his portrait before!”

“I can’t believe Duan Ling Tian who looked for trouble with Senior Sister Wen Yan and publicly humiliated her for seemingly no reason would have such a side to him as well. I thought he would be really arrogant. Who knew he’s actually so polite.”

“Looked for trouble with Senior Sister Wen Yan for seemingly no reason? You actually believe that?”

“I heard Senior Sister Wen Yan doesn’t even know how she had offended Duan Ling Tian!”

“Senior Sister Wen Yan must have offended Duan Ling Tian somehow. Perhaps, she doesn’t even know when or how. That must be why she doesn’t know how she has offended him.”

The other two true disciples said one after another.

It was not only these three true disciples who were baffled by how polite Duan Ling Tian was, but even the few Enforcement Hall’s Bronze Flame Elders standing behind the counters and the other two true disciples who stood closer to Duan Ling Tian were baffled as well.

“So this is Duan Ling Tian?”

“Is it really Duan Ling Tian?”

Just like the other three true disciples, they felt extremely confused.

“Elder, this is my certificate.” Duan Ling Tian did not pay attention to their confused gaze and walked to the counter where the three true disciples were at and took out his certificate before handing it to the Enforcement Hall’s elder behind the counter.

After the Enforcement Hall’s elder looked at it, he nodded. “That’s right. This certificate is issued by the Fire Remuneration Palace. Duan Ling Tian, please wait here for a moment. After all ten true disciples who accepted the assignment are here, someone will bring all of you to take over the duties from the other ten true disciples,” The Enforcement Hall’s elder said politely after he took the certificate.

Seeing the treatment Duan Ling Tian received, the three disciples standing at the side had an envious expression on their faces. However, they knew this was the treatment Duan Ling Tian deserved.

Who asked him to be so strong?

“Alright. Thank you, Elder.” Duan Ling Tian nodded. After he smiled at the Enforcement Hall’s elder standing behind the counter, he moved to stand at the side.

After Duan Ling Tian stood next to them, they did not dare to size him up despite being curious. They did not even dare to speak. They could only speak through Voice Transmission.

At the same time, the other two true disciples also came over to register.

So far, out of the ten true disciples who had accepted the assignment from the Enforcement Hall, six of them had arrived.

Since Duan Ling Tian’s arrival, the atmosphere in the Main Hall had turned awkward as well. Nobody spoke at all. It was completely quiet.

This continued on until the seventh true disciple arrived.

When Duan Ling Tian saw the seventh disciple, he was shocked. This was because he knew the seventh disciple.

“Senior Brother Liu Yun, w-why are you here?” Duan Ling Tian asked curiously as he looked at the true disciple who had just arrived.

“Why? Are you shocked?” Liu Yun who was slowly walking into the reception hall seemed to enjoy seeing Duan Ling Tian so shocked. He could not help but smile.

“I’m really shocked.” Duan Ling Tian smiled wryly.

“It’s only for a month anyway. I’m here to accompany you!” Liu Yun smiled.

Duan Ling Tian felt warmth enveloping his heart when he heard Liu Yun’s words. Naturally, he knew the reason Liu Yun had come here. It was to watch over him and stop him from further offending Dong Lin, the Enforcement Hall. Apart from that, he was also here to help him meet Gan Ru Yan.

Soon after, Liu Yun was also done with the procedure and stood next to Duan Ling Tian as they waited.

Liu Yun asked curiously, “Junior Brother Ling Tian, when did you arrive?”

“I arrived less than 15 minutes ago,” Duan Ling Tian replied.

“It seems like I was late. Initially, I planned to come earlier so that I can shock you!” Liu Yun smiled.

“It’s still shocking.” A wry smile appeared on Duan Ling Tian’s face when he heard Liu Yun’s words.

Seeing how Liu Yun and Duan Ling Tian were so familiar with each other, the other five true disciples looked at Liu Yun with an envious gaze. However, there was also a hint of delight derived from others’ misfortune.

It was obvious they were envious that Liu Yun had a close relationship with Duan Ling Tian. After all, Duan Ling Tian was now the eighth prodigy in the Fire Worship Sect. Apart from mastering four high-grade Divine Abilities, he even possessed a blue Innate Spiritual Root! As long as he did not suddenly die, he would definitely be able to rise to the rank of a Golden Flame Elder in the future. For this reason, they were a little envious when they saw the good relationship between Liu Yun and this soon-to-be Golden Flame Elder.

As for the delight they felt at other people’s misfortune, they felt that since Duan Ling Tian had offended so many people, Liu Yun would definitely be implicated as well.

Put aside the fact that Duan Ling Tian had offended the Black Turtle Sanctum’s First Silver Flame Elder Li An when he was still in the Black Turtle Sanctum, after he came to the Saint Land, he had even offended the true disciple, Wen Yan, and the Enforcement Hall’s elder, Dong Lin.

Although both of them were not as strong as Duan Ling Tian, both of them had very strong backgrounds.

For example, Wen Yan’s master was a Golden Flame Elder. Not only that, but her master was also the Sanctum Leader of the Azure Dragon Sanctum.

Dong Lin’s background was even more extraordinary. His father was one of the Vice Hall Masters in the Enforcement Hall where they were going to serve in the next month.

‘To think he dares to accept the assignment from the Enforcement Hall and serve here after offending Elder Dong Lin. Don’t tell me Duan Ling Tian is unaware he’s walking into the wolves’ den by doing so?’

This was the thought of the five true disciples and the few Enforcement Hall’s Bronze Flame Elders.

As time passed by, the last three true disciples also arrived.

When they saw Duan Ling Tian, they were still shocked even they knew beforehand that Duan Ling Tian planned to serve in the Enforcement Hall.

“Ten of you, follow me!” After Duan Ling Tian and the other nine arrived, an Enforcement Hall’s elder walked out of the Main Hall soon after and motioned them to follow him.

Based on the uniform he was wearing, it was obvious he was also a Bronze Flame Elder.

Under the lead of this Bronze Flame Elder, Duan Ling Tian and the other nine met the other ten true disciples who were on duty during the last month to hand over their duties. Their duties were no different from the previous group’s duties.

When these ten true disciples finished the handover and were about to leave the Enforcement Hall, they all looked at Duan Ling Tian sympathetically. Many of them even shook their heads and sighed.

They shared the same thoughts with the others. They felt Duan Ling Tian had intentionally walked into the wolves’ den by volunteering to serve in the Enforcement Hall.

It was obvious they had also heard of the dispute between Duan Ling Tian and Dong Lin.

As true disciples who had served in the Enforcement Hall, they were, naturally, given a residence of their own. It was spacious and located in the Main Hall of the Enforcement Hall.

When Duan Ling Tian was about to enter his room, before he could close his door, he heard Liu Yun said, “Junior Brother Ling Tian, we’ll officially start our duty in the Enforcement Hall tomorrow. Today will also be the only day you have a chance to see Senior Sister Ru Yan! Let’s go! I’ll bring you to meet the senior from my clan!”

“Alright!” Duan Ling Tian’s eyes brightened immediately when he heard Liu Yun’s words. His eyes shone as brightly as the stars.

“Let’s look for him in his residence. If he’s not there, we’ll go to where he’s stationed. Unlike us, he has shifts and other duties to attend to,” Liu Yun added again.

Due to the reason that the true disciples would be dismissed after serving in the Enforcement Hall for a month, there was no such thing as shifts or breaks.

It was possible for them to take a break. However, their break would last three months since that was the amount of time a true disciple would have to wait before they were eligible to serve in the Enforcement Hall again!
