War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

The sword battle Formation, Duan Ling Tian’s strongest attack, shot toward the thin middle-aged man, leaving horrendous cracks in the void. Based on this, one could see how much Duan Ling Tian wished to kill the thin middle-aged man. Unfortunately, the sword battle Formation that had shot out fiercely was stopped in its momentum when it was roughly ten meters away from the thin middle-aged man as though it was obstructed by something. The sword battle Formation that was forcibly stopped vanished quickly like short-lived fireworks. The only thing that remained was a Celestial Sword that hovered in the air, ten meters away from the thin middle-aged man. However, it was no longer shining brilliantly.

From the beginning to the end, the thin middle-aged man stood in his spot motionlessly with an indifferent expression on his face. His robes did not even flutter.

“W-what!” Tang Xiao Xiao was thoroughly shocked. When she regained her senses, a helpless and bitter smile could be seen on her face. Earlier, her attention was caught by the commotion from Duan Ling Tian’s strongest attack. She could tell, based on his attack, that he was currently stronger than Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestials. It was as the thin middle-aged man had said, Duan Ling Tian’s strength was comparable to Golden Celestials in the Devata Realms. Nevertheless, Duan Ling Tian’s attack could not even approach the thin middle-aged man, let alone hurting the thin middle-aged man. It was only natural considering the thin middle-aged man’s claims that he was stronger than most Heavenly Emperors in the Devata Realms!

The thin middle-aged man’s voice was dripping with contempt as he said, “You’re as weak as an ant!”

Crack!

With just a thought, the thin middle-aged man broke Duan Ling Tian’s Celestial Sword, that was hovering ten meters away from him, into two. “Look, that’s too bad!” He said coldly, “I told you I’ll leave your corpse intact if your attack manages to get within 10 meters from me. However, since you failed, I have no choice but to turn your corpse into dust.”

As soon as the thin middle-aged man finished speaking, he stepped forward slowly. Although his movement was light and casual, Duan Ling Tian felt as though a giant hammer had landed on his heart with every step the thin middle-aged man took. He felt as though he was being suffocated at this moment, and he acutely felt Death breathing down his neck.

At this moment, two figures appeared in Duan Ling Tian’s mind. He smiled bitterly. “Ke’er, Little Fei’er.” Soon after, another figure appeared in his mind. “Tian Wu.” After that, his parents, children, relatives, and friends flashed in his mind one after another.

Duan Ling Tian felt vexed and unwilling even though he had expected this outcome. He was unwilling to die in the hands of Yun Qing Yan’s man.

Tang Xiao Xiao, naturally, could tell the thin middle-aged man was about to kill Duan Ling Tian. Although she wished to help him, there was nothing she could do. Let alone the thin middle-aged man, she was far weaker than Duan Ling Tian. What could she do when even Duan Ling Tian was rendered helpless by the thin middle-aged man?

The thin middle-aged man sneered. “Duan Ling Tian, if there’s an afterlife, please remember that there are some women you simply should not touch!” The skinny middle-aged man sneered. He did not make any movement after that, but his aura suddenly changed. It was as though a gust of violent wind was blowing at Duan Ling Tian.

Duan Ling Tian was as weak as an ant, he did not even have to move to kill Duan Ling Tian. With just a thought, an invisible energy, like the scythe of death, shot toward Duan Ling Tian to reap his life.

Not only did Duan Ling Tian and Tang Xiao Xiao lack time to react, but they did not even notice it at first. The movement of the attack was just too fast.

The corners of the thin middle-aged man’s lips curved up when he saw the invisible energy was about to hit Duan Ling Tian. However, at the critical moment, the thin middle-aged man’s smile froze on his face!

Rrripp!

The sound of something being torn rang in the air as a spatial tear suddenly appeared in a timely manner before Duan Ling Tian. It absorbed the attack from the thin middle-aged man that was about to land on Duan Ling Tian.

“Who is it?” The thin middle-aged man bellowed. His expression had changed as he coldly stared at the spatial tear that had suddenly appeared.

Duan Ling Tian and Tang Xiao Xiao’s attention was also focused on the spatial tear at this moment.

A languid and indifferent void rang from the spatial tear. “It’s me.” A figure dressed in simple robes limped out, holding a wine gourd in his hand. From time to time, he would drink from the wine gourd. Based on his figure, it was clear he was an adult male. However, due to his lowered head and disheveled hair, it was impossible to tell if he was young, middle-aged or old. Although judging from his hoarse and energetic voice, it seemed like he was a middle-aged man.

Duan Ling Tian and Tang Xiao Xiao were shocked by the sudden appearance of this man who looked like a beggar. Based on the way he had made his entrance, it was clear that his strength was comparable to Great Overarching Golden Celestials, at least.

A hint of astonishment could be seen in the thin middle-aged man’s eyes when he saw the man who looked like a beggar. His expression changed drastically when his eyes fell on the identity token that was hanging on the man’s waist. He saw the word, ‘Jie’, carved on the token. He gulped before he quickly saluted the beggar-like man deferentially. “I’m Yun Ye from the Yun Family. It’s an honor to see you, Lord Xia Jie!”

The thin middle-aged man had lost his arrogant air at this moment. It seemed as though he was a whole different person with how humble he was acting.

“Yun Ye?” The man called Xia Jie lifted his head slightly to look at the thin middle-aged man. “The spatial tunnel between the Divine Offering Land and the Devata Realm is about to close. What are you, a member of the Yun Family, doing here, instead of returning to the Divine Offering Land?”

“Lord Xia Jie,” the thin middle-aged man, Yun Ye, glanced at Duan Ling Tian and Tang Xiao Xiao before he replied, “I’m here on Young Master Qing Yan’s order to kill this man. Lord Xia Jie, I’m sure you’ve heard about the commoner from the mundane realm who had tainted Miss Xia’s reincarnation.”

Slap!

As soon as Yun Ye finished speaking, the sound of a slap rang clearly in the air.

Duan Ling Tian and Tang Xiao Xiao could see a clear handprint on Yun Ye’s face at this moment.

“Lord Xia Jie, you…” Yun Ye’s expression changed. His eyes were filled with fear as he looked at Xia Jie guardedly.

“How dare a servant of the Yun Family talk about the affairs of my Xia family’s eldest daughter!” Xia Jie who seemed lackadaisical just a moment ago changed completely in an instant. At this moment, the air he exuded was one of majesty and power. “Do you believe that the Yun Family won’t pursue this matter even if I kill you now?”

Yun Ye’s facial expression changed again. Waves and waves of fear overwhelmed him.

“Get out of here!” Xia Jie barked.

Meanwhile, Yun Ye looked as though he had just escaped from the jaws of death. He instantly lifted in his hand to open a spatial tear before disappearing into it in just a flash. It seemed like he had completely forgotten about his young master’s order to kill Duan Ling Tian. It was only natural, after all, his life was more important than his young master’s orders.

Duan Ling Tian and Tang Xiao Xiao felt surreal as they watched Yun Ye who had acted so domineering earlier retreating like a timid mouse. If Yun Ye did not exaggerate, he was someone stronger than Heavenly Emperors in the Devata Realms! How could both of them not feel shocked?

“So you’re Duan Ling Tian?” Xia Jie who was simply dressed looked at Duan Ling Tian who was still shocked by Yun Ye’s sudden retreat. His piercing stare from beneath his disheveled hair seemed capable of piercing through everything!
