War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

4569 Old Meng of the Jade Tide Heavenly Mansion ‘Moreover, I have a feeling the Saint she had ties with isn’t an ordinary Saint…’

Han Jiang grew more and more desperate when he thought about this. The reason he had come to this conclusion was due to the high status that Zhao An Yi, the strongest person in the Azure Cloud Saint Sect, had. How could the person who made Zhao An Yi personally take action be an ordinary Saint?

“You’ll be able to meet that person in three months,” Zhao An Yi said indifferently. He did not bother giving Han Jiang an explanation. Based on the outcome of the demi Saints of the Fu clan, it was obvious to him that Duan Ling Tian would not spare Han Jiang.

Han Jiang’s heart trembled; he was terrified. He pleaded, “Senior Zhao! Can you please spare my life on the account that the Han clan and I had worked hard for the Azure Cloud Saint? I’m willing to serve you with all my life if you spare me!”

Han Jiang was not stupid. Since the two demi Saints from the Fu clan were dead, he knew that if Zhao An Yi brought him away, he would have at most three months to live. Zhao An Yi was his only hope at this moment. In his opinion, even if the mysterious person was a powerful Saint, as long as Zhao An Yi was willing, it was not impossible for Zhao AnYi to protect him. After all, Zhao An Yi had been a Saint for a long time now. Not only that, he was ranked among the strongest Saints in the Outer Boundary. Alas, he did not expect that the person who forced Zhao An Yi to take action was someone who surpassed Saints. If he had known better in the past, he would have never agreed to help Fu Liang Ming to kill Duan You Wei.

Zhao An Yi ignored Han Jiang. He found Han Jiang annoying so he quickly sealed Han Jiang’s mouth and Divine Consciousness to prevent Han Jiang from sending Voice Transmission to him.

“Hmm?”

At this moment, Zhao An Yi received a Voice Transmission from Guo Lin.

“Junior uncle, Tuoba Lian Cheng isn’t at his cultivation ground. However, I managed to obtain some clues about his whereabouts. I’ve seen the heavenly text. Should I look for Tuoba Lian Cheng first or should I look for the entrance to the Heaven Traversing Pagoda first?”

Guo Lin knew that the heavenly text that appeared not long ago was very important to Zhao An Yi. After all, it was related to the Heaven Traversing Pagoda. Although he was just a Saint like Zhao An Yi, he was not very confident about passing the tests in the Heaven Traversing Pagoda and obtaining the Heaven Protection Talisman. Even if he managed to obtain the Heaven Protection Talisman, he knew he would not be able to break into the Forbidden Realm for the time being. Although he had comprehended the law of fire to the paramount stage, his Sword Dao had just entered the sixth level when he became a Saint. To enter the Forbidden Realm, one had to comprehend a law to the paramount stage and one of the Four Daos of Heaven and Earth to the seventh level; this was the basic requirement. Nonetheless, although he was not in a hurry, he still had to consider Zhao An Yi.

Zhao An Yi quickly replied, “Look for Tuoba Lian Cheng first. I’ll arrange for people to look for the entrance to the Heaven Traversing Pagoda. I’ll bring Han Jiang back to the sect now and make arrangements. After that, I’ll personally search for the entrance as well.”

Zhao An Yi’s voice turned solemn as he continued to say, “You must bring Tuoba Lian Cheng back to the sect within three months no matter what. If I don’t make preparations, I’m not confident about surviving the Fatal Heavenly Tribulation even if I have three Heaven Protection Talismans. Moreover, who knows how difficult it’ll be to obtain the Heaven Protection Talisman in the pagoda? I’m also not confident I’ll be able to obtain the Heaven Protection Talisman. My point is, we still can’t afford to offend Duan Ling Tian.”

Guo Lin quickly promised to bring Tuoba Lian Cheng back to the Azure Cloud Saint Sect after listening to Zhao An Yi’s words.

…

After Zhan An Yi brought Han Jiang back to the Azure Cloud Saint Sect, he imprisoned Han Jiang and ordered a demi Saint to watch over Han Jiang.

“You must keep watch over him and make sure he doesn’t escape. Otherwise, our sect will face the threat of annihilation,” Zhao An Yi said to the demi Saint.

The demi Saint was Zhao An Yi’s disciple, and Zhao An Yi trusted the demi Saint. However, he still gave the other party a reminder due to the gravity of the situation.

“I understand, master! Don’t worry. Unless I die, he won’t be able to leave the sect,” the demi Saint said respectfully.

“If he tries to escape, you can kill him. However, his body must be well preserved. We have to make sure that people can still recognize him after three months,” Zhao An Yi added.

Meanwhile, Han Jiang turned paler and paler as he listened to the conversation. He knew now that his life depended on the mysterious person who would come three months later. He had thought about the matter and decided to push all the blame on Fu Liang Ming when the time came. He would also explain that he had owed Fu Liang Ming a favor. He was also prepared to offer up himself as a slave to serve the other party. With all these, perhaps the other party might spare his life. ..

After dealing with Han Jiang, Zhao An Yi ordered most of the demi Saints in the Azure Cloud Saint Sect to look for the entrance of the Heaven Traversing Pagoda.

Just as Zhao An Yi was about to leave to search for the entrance to the Heaven Traversing Pagoda as well, he received a message.

Unexpectedly, the person who sent the message was not from the Azure Cloud Saint Sect’s territories. The other party was an old friend of Zhao An Yi; he was the elusive Saint from the Jade Tide Heavenly Mansion.

Many people assumed that the elusive Saint of the Jade Tide Heavenly Mansion was dead, but he was, in fact, still alive. The Saint was a little older than Zhao An Yi, and he almost died during his last Heavenly Tribulation.

“Little Zhao, did you see the heavenly text? Please let me know immediately if you have any news about the entrance to the Heaven Traversing Pagoda. I’ve had people remove the barrier in the territories of the Jade Tide Heavenly Mansion to facilitate Voice Transmissions.”

Upon hearing the old man’s words, Zhao An Yi smiled wryly. He had to deal with so many things that he had forgotten about this matter. “Old Meng, thanks for your reminder. Otherwise, I would’ve forgotten about the Voice Transmission barrier.”

The barrier isolated Voice Transmissions from other territories of saint-rank forces. The Saint from the Jade Tide Heavenly Mansion only managed to send a message to Zhao An Yi because he had entered the Azure Cloud Saint Sect’s barrier.

Old Meng continued to say with a hint of urgency, “If I have any news, I’ll notify you as well. I’m going to look for the entrance myself as well.”

Zhao An Yi naturally understood Old Meng’s urgency. After all, if Old Meng did not raise his cultivation and become a level-seven supreme powerhouse, the next one-in-10,000-year Heavenly Tribulation would likely kill OId Meng.

‘I remember his last Heavenly Tribulation was 9,000 years ago, right? It’s no wonder he’s in a rush. If he doesn’t grow stronger, he’ll die in 1,000 years.”
