War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens-Chapter 4656 - Old Friends
4656 Old Friends
The property the Misty Cloud Sect intended to give Duan Ling Tian was luxurious and huge. It was very eye-catching in the capital city of the Distinct Province.
“We have an extremely powerful Dao Establishment cultivator in the Distinct Province now. He’s at least a level-seven Dao Establishment cultivator!”
“I heard that Duan Ling Tian, the God Defying Sword, defeated the Misty Cloud Sect’s Ascending Clouds Sage, the former strongest person in the Distinct Province, with just a strike!”
“The gap between the seventh and the sixth Dao Establishment stage is too big. It’s not surprising that he could do that.”
…
The day before Duan Ling Tian and the others moved, the major forces in the Distinct Province sent people to the Wind Soaring Inn to look for him. The representatives were either sect leaders or the strongest powerhouses of the respective forces.
The Ascending Clouds Sage did not leave the Soaring Wind Inn after he came. He had claimed that he wanted to help Duan Ling Tian, but in reality, he hoped that he would be able to further comprehend the Sword Dao from Duan Ling Tian.
Duaan Ling Tian did not drive the Ascending Clouds Sage away because the latter’s presence was advantageous for him. He only needed to give the other party a few pointers, and the other party would deal with various trivial matters for him. Moreover, behind the other party was the Misty Cloud Sect, the top force in the Distinct Province, which he could use to his advantage. All in all, there was only gain and no loss for the Ascending Clouds Sage to stay.
When the matter of the Ascending Clouds Sage staying in the inn and becoming a ‘housekeeper’ for Duan Ling Tian spread, it naturally caused a stir. Not only did Duan Ling Tian defeat him, but Duan Ling Tian also managed to make him willingly stay and serve him. How could it not cause a stir?
“This is too unbelievable! The venerable patriarch of the Misty Cloud Sect, a level-six Dao Establishment powerhouse and the former stronger person in the Distinct Province, is actually willing to be a housekeeper!”
“Why is it unbelievable? You’re too narrow-sighted. The patriarch of the Misty Cloud Sect was formerly the strongest person in the Distinct Province. How could someone like him be stupid? It’s obvious that he willingly humbled himself and followed Lord Duan because he’ll benefit from it!”
“I agree. The Ascending Clouds Sage has lived for a long time. I’m sure all of his actions serve his interests. There’s no way he’ll do things that won’t benefit him!”
“The Ascending Clouds Sage cultivates the Sword Dao, and Lord Duan’s title is the God Defying Sword… This means that Lord Duan also cultivates the Sword Dao. Since he defeated the Ascending Clouds Sage, it’s clear that his Sword Dao is much more profound than that of the Ascending Clouds Sage. His Sword Dao is at least a stage higher than that of the Ascending Clouds Sage, who’s a level-six Dao Establishment cultivator. After all, it’s said that he’s at least a level-seven Dao Establishment cultivator. If you ask me, I think the Ascending Clouds Sage is trying to get close to Lord Duan so he can improve his Sword Dao!”
“You have a point!”
…
Meanwhile, in Heavenly City; a small city in the Distinct Province.
A beautiful young woman with an extraordinary bearing walked out of a restaurant with a golden-clad girl who looked as lovely as a doll. The duo quickly left the city and made their way to the capital city of the Distinct Province.
“Sister Xue Nai, there’s no doubt that Duan Ling Tian, the God Defying Sword, is Brother Ling Tian!” the girl said to the young woman confidently.
“You’re right,” the young woman said with a smile, “If it were just the name alone, it could have been someone who coincidentally shared the same name. However, with the title of the God Defying Sword, there’s no doubt that the other party is Brother Ling Tian! He’s not someone who likes to draw attention to himself. Based on how ostentatious he had been, it’s obvious that he hopes that we’ll hear about him and look for him.” 𝙛𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝓮𝒃𝓷𝓸𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝒄𝓸𝓶
The young woman was Han Xue Nai, and the girl was Little Gold. Previously, the two were gaining experience in the Divine Offering Land, which was part of Duan Ling Tian’s Little World, with Duan Si Ling, Duan Nian Tian, Little Black, and Little White.
Later on, Han Xue Nai and Little Gold were sent to Divine Land’s Distinct Province. They traveled for a long time before they came to Heavenly City. They had been staying in Heavenly City for a few days and had no plans of leaving until they heard rumors about Duan Ling Tian, the God Defying Sword. They naturally understood Duan Ling Tian’s intention and quickly left the Heavenly City to reunite with him in the capital city of the Distinct Province.
During their journey to the capital city, they encountered bandits, but it was easy for them to deal with the bandits. Their journey was rather smooth, and in no time at all, they arrived safely in the capital city.
After inquiring for a short while, they quickly found the location of the Duan Residence in the capital city. When they arrived, they realized that Duan Ling Tian’s prestige had soared greatly in just a short time, surpassing that of the Ascending Clouds Sage in the past. They saw people lining up outside the Duan Residence, hoping to seek apprenticeship so they could comprehend the Sword Dao and become Dao Establishment cultivators.
“Young ladies, did you come to seek apprenticeship as well?”
The guards stationed at the entrance of the Duan Residence were elders of the Misty Cloud Sect. The Ascending Clouds Sage had asked the sect leader to station two elders here. In his opinion, ordinary disciples were not qualified to be Duan Ling Tian’s guards.
Han Xue Nai said politely, “Greetings, senior. Can I trouble you to inform Lord Duan that his old friends, Han Xue Nai and Little Gold, are here to visit?”
Han Xue Nai was very vague about her relationship with Duan Ling Tian. She was worried that revealing too much might bring unnecessary trouble. Moreover, she was certain that Duan Ling Tian would meet them as soon as he heard their names.
“Old friends of Lord Duan?”
The elders of the Misty Cloud Sect did not dare to delay and quickly relayed the message. Since he was not qualified to approach Duan Ling Tian directly, he relayed the message to the Ascending Clouds Sage.
“Senior granduncle, two young ladies claiming to be Lord Duan’s old friends are here…”
The Ascending Cloud Sage did not waste time and looked for Duan Ling Tian immediately.
Duan Ling Tian’s eyes lit up as soon as he heard Han Xue Nai and Little Gold’s names. With this, he knew his plan was a success. Due to the speedy arrival of the duo, he also knew that they must have also been transported to the Distinct Province.
Li Fei, who learned about the duo’s arrival from the Ascending Clouds Sage, rushed outside excitedly.
Duan Ling Tian followed behind Li Fei. When he arrived at the entrance, Li Fei was already hugging two familiar graceful figures. He smiled brightly. The arrival of the duo was a very auspicious start to his plan.
