War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens-Chapter 4671 Lei Hong Escapes

Not long after Duan Ling Tian left, Lei Hong, who was hiding in the city in the Distinct Province, received news of the former's departure. However, Lei Hong did not take action immediately. After all, there was still Zhao An Yi. If he made a move now, Zhao An Yi would surely intervene. Both of them were level-seven Dao Establishment powerhouses, and he was not confident about defeating Zhao An Yi. At most, he would be evenly matched with Zhao An Yi. In fact, he might even be at a disadvantage.

During Lei Hong's journey to the Distinct Province, Lei Hong had passed through the Cloud Province. It was at that time that he learned more about Zhao An Yi, who was now known as the Azure Cloud Elder in this new world. He learned that Zhao An Yi's mastery of the Dao had surpassed his own.

"It's a pity there are no laws in the Divine Land. Otherwise, I won't have to fear someone like Zhao An Yi," Lei Hong muttered with an unsightly expression on his face.

It did not take long after Duan Ling Tian's departure before Lei Hong finally realized Zhao An Yi's intention when he saw that not only did Zhao An Yi not leave, but the other members of the Azure Cloud Residence had also arrived in the Distinct Province. With the help of the people from the Duan Residence and the Misty Cloud Sect, they established a new residence.

"So Zhao An Yi's plan was to relocate from the Cloud Province to the Distinct Province?"

Lei Hong's expression was rather bad now that his plan to take action after Zhao An Yi left failed. How could he take action if Zhao An Yi had no plans to leave and even established his own residence here? There was no doubt that Zhao An Yi would definitely protect the Duan Residence if he made a move now. However, he also knew that he could not afford to wait any longer if he wanted to make a move against the Duan Residence.

Finally, one day, Lei Hong learned that Zhao An Yi had returned to the new Azure Cloud Residence in the Distinct Province. With this, Lei Hong decided to act swiftly and kill Duan Ling Tian's family and friends in the Duan Residence. In his opinion, even if he managed to kill one of them, it would be a victory for him. 𝑓𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝑚

After that, Lei Hong planned to flee as fast as he could. The Divine Land was vast, and it would be difficult for Duan Ling Tian to find him. He planned to go into hiding because he knew there was no hope of him surpassing Duan Ling Tian. He knew very well that Duan Ling Tian's comprehension skills were superior to his, leaving him helpless and powerless. He knew it was likely that he would never be able to confront Duan Ling Tian directly in his lifetime. At most, he could only plot in secret to make Duan Ling Tian's life difficult and make Duan Ling Tian regret offending him.

…

Boom!

At this moment, Lei Hong, who concealed himself in the sky above the Duan Residence, finally made a move. He chose to attack the courtyard where Duan Ling Tian's parents, Duan Ru Feng and Li Rou, were living. In his opinion, the deaths of Duan Ling Tian's parents would cause Duan Ling Tian even more pain than the deaths of his wives. Moreover, Duan Ling Tian had several wives, and his wives lived in different courtyards. It would be impossible for him to kill them all at once.

Lei Hong did not expect that as soon as he attacked, an energy, which was as powerful as his, surged from the Duan Residence and instantly crushed his attack. The shockwave spread in all directions, shaking the Duan Residence and the city.

Following that, Lei Hong saw the person who retaliated. It was a young woman. She was standing near Duan Ru Feng and Li Rou's courtyard at this moment, staring at Lei Hong. After a brief moment, she said, "I know you. You're Lei Hong from the Sun Bright World."

Lei Hong was taken aback when he saw the young woman. It was completely out of his expectations to meet the other party here.

'Why is this woman here?'

Lei Hong also knew Yu Xiao, the Second City Governor of the Jin Dynasty's Thirteen Cities in the Outer Boundary. She was aggressive by nature and had once challenged the World supreme powerhouses in the Three Upper Worlds not long after she became a Saint. He was among the people she had challenged in the past. Back then, Lei Hong had the advantage, relying on his laws and doppelgangers.

Later on, Lei Hong also saw the heavenly text so he knew that Yu Xiao had become a level-seven supreme powerhouse as well.

After a moment, Lei Hong recalled that Duan Ling Tian's master, Feng Qing Yang, had married Xue Qing Zhu, the Seventh City Governor of the Jin Dynasty's Thirteen Cities. Everyone in the Upper Three Worlds and the Outer Boundary knew about this. With this, he was no longer surprised that Yu Xiao was here.

Lei Hong knew that his trip here was in vain; his plan was doomed to fail since Yu Xiao was here.

'Those idiots! How did they fail to discover that Yu Xiao is also in the Duan Residence!' Lei Hong cursed inwardly.

In fact, it was not surprising that Lei Hong's men failed to discover Yu Xiao's presence. After all, she had a very low sense of existence in the Duan Residence. Apart from Duan Ling Tian and his family, no one knew of her existence at all.

Swoosh! free(w)ebnov(e)l

Just as Yu Xiao prepared to attack again, Lei Hong noticed movements from the Azure Cloud Residence. He did not think twice and quickly escaped. Just like Yu Xiao and Zhao An Yi, he was a level-seven supreme powerhouse. As such, he was not too worried that he would not be able to escape before Zhao An Yi arrived.

"You coward, Lei Hong!"

Yu Xiao did not pointlessly chase after Lei Hong. She knew it would be futile. In the end, she only projected her voice, scolding him, so he could hear her.

Unsurprisingly, Lei Hong was furious when he heard those words. He almost spat out blood in anger. He replied coldly, "Yu Xiao, if it wasn't for Zhao An Yi, do you think I'd be afraid of you? Don't forget that you lost to me in the past!"

Meanwhile, Zhao An Yi, who had just arrived, overheard this conversation. Although he arrived late, he could easily guess what had happened. Lei Hong must have tried to attack the Duan Residence.

"Miss Yu Xiao," Zhao An Yi called out. He smiled awkwardly, blaming himself for arriving too late and allowing Lei Hong to escape.

"You came too late," Yu Xiao said disdainfully, "Although you have the Azure Cloud Residence in the Distinct Province, in my opinion, it's best if you stay in the Duan Residence as much as you can. If Lei Hong comes again, we can join forces to deal with him. There are now laws in the Divine Land so I'm confident we'll be able to kill him if we join forces. If we succeed, I'm sure Junior Nephew Duan will appreciate your help."

The conflict between Duan Ling Tian and Lei Hong was not a secret in the Myriad Worlds and the Outer Boundary.

Zhao An Yi felt even more regretful about his late arrival when he heard these words. After a moment, he said, "It's indeed a pity that he escaped. I'll move to the Duan Residence today."

Zhao An Yi really hoped that Lei Hong would show up again. If he could kill Lei Hong and help Duan Ling Tian eliminate a threat, he would earn a favor from Duan Ling Tian. With Duan Ling Tian's monstrous talent, he was confident that Duan Ling Tian would eventually stand at the peak even in this world that was devoid of laws. A favor from such a person was worth much more than precious treasures.

…

Duan Ling Tian was naturally unaware of what had happened in the Distinct Province. Without laws, it was impossible for them to communicate over long distances. In the Myriad Worlds and the Outerboundary, it was the abundance of the power of the laws that facilitated such communications.

At this time, under Feng Qing Yang's lead, Duan Ling Tian finally arrived at the Endless Sword Domain.

Feng Qing Yang explained, "The Endless Sword Domain is up ahead. It's a holy land for sword cultivators, and it was born from the battle between two very skilled swordsmen who had comprehended the Sword Dao and also successfully merged the Daos. This is where I broke through and entered the eighth stage of the Sword Dao."
