Chapter 3914: Meeting Liu Yin Again

Duan Ling Tian was unaware of the commotion outside, and he was naturally unaware that Ximen Long Xiang, the prodigy from the Tai Yi Sect, who regarded him as a rival, had left the Tai Yi Sect and the Eastern Ridge Mansion after watching a recording of him killing two intermediate Lords of Gods to join a force outside of the Eastern Ridge Mansion.

“This is my third time on the Lord Battlefield. Every time I’m here, it feels different… I’m different, and the place is different as well…”

Duan Ling Tian wandered the Lord Battlefield with a smile on his face.

The first time he came to the Lord Battlefield, he had been very cautious. He knew that he would certainly die if he encountered an Underworld Elder.

The second time, he came with Xue Hai Chuan and Dongfang Yan Nian. He was fearless, but he was also not very motivated.

The third time, he was alone again. However, unlike the first time, he was excited and fearless.

‘With my current strength, as long as I don’t run into those extremely strong Underworld Elders, I’m confident I’ll be able to defeat all my opponents as long as I go all out.’

Among the White Dragon Elders from the Flying Dragon Sect and the Underworld Elders from the Tai Yi Sect, there were those who were extraordinarily strong. Their strength far surpassed that of the average White Dragon Elders and Underworld Elders. They possessed the strength to defeat ordinary advanced Lords of Gods despite being intermediate Lords of Gods. Xue Hai Chuan and Dongfang Yan Nian were not among these extraordinarily strong intermediate Lords of Gods.

However, the number of these extraordinary White Dragon Elders and Underworld Elders were very small. There were perhaps one or two of them in each sect.

“Someone’s there!”

Duan Ling Tian sensed movements and quickly teleported to the top of a dangerously tall peak. He stood at the edge and looked at the freshly dug cave on him before he smacked his hand against the entrance of the cave.

Boom!

A loud explosion rang in the air as stones and pebbles flew up.

At the same time, a figure rushed out of the cave shouting, “We’re from the same sect!”

‘From the same sect?’

Duan Ling Tian’s eyes narrowed slightly as he lowered his hand. When the dust settled, and he saw the person in front of him, he could not help but raise an eyebrow. The other person was indeed from the same sect and could even be considered an ‘acquaintance’.

Previously, when Duan Ling Tian first entered the Imperial War Realm, that person had scoffed at him. At that time, he could not understand the other person’s hostility. It was only when he learned of the other person’s identity that realization dawned on him.

The other person was Liu Yin, one of the two White Dragon Elders from the Flying Dragon Sect’s 10,000 Devils faction. He was also the former Sect Leader of the Hidden Dog Sect, a lord-rank sect.

Liu Yin had a grudge against Xue Hai Shan, Xue Hai Chuan’s brother, because Xue Hai Shan had killed Liu Yin’s son in the past. Xue Hai Shan was later punished and imprisoned in the Hidden Fog Sect’s Heavenly Stairs. Liu Yin who was dissatisfied with the punishment later left the Hidden Fog Sect.

Meanwhile, Liu Yin’s eyes lit up when he saw the person in front of him. “Duan Ling Tian?”

Liu Yin had extended his Divine Consciousness earlier and detected that the other party was from the Flying Dragon Sect. However, he was unaware that the other party was Duan Ling Tian. Hence, he had quickly stated they were from the same sect when he ran out of the cave.

“Elder Liu Yin,” Duan Ling Tian said with a nod. He had no conflict with Liu Yin even if Liu Yin belonged to the 10,000 Devils faction. He knew Liu Yin was only hostile toward him previously because of his closeness to the Xue brothers.

Meanwhile, Liu Yin quickly scanned his surroundings as though he was trying to determine if Duan Ling Tian was alone. He knew that Duan Ling Tian was previously accompanied by Xue Hai Chuan and Dongfang Yan Nian on the Lord Battlefield. At that time, he thought he could finally kill Xue Hai Shan since Xue Hai Chuan had entered the Lord Battlefield. Alas, he did not expect that Xue Hai Chuan had left Xue Hai Shan in Sikong Ye’s cultivation ground.

Sikong Ye was a Revered Elder whom Long Qing Chong personally invited to the Flying Dragon Sect.Although no one had seen him fight, they thought he had to be an extraordinary advanced Lord of Gods for Long Qing Chong to personally invite him to the sect and even made him a Black Dragon Elder. In short, Sikong Ye was not some Liu Yin could defeat.

When Duan Ling Tian saw Liu Yin checking his surroundings, he said nonchalantly, “Elder Liu Yin, there’s no need to look around. I came alone this time.”

At the same time, Liu Yin also confirmed that no one was around except the both of them. Otherwise, he would have discovered them with his Divine Consciousness. As one of the stronger intermediate Lords of Gods, he was confident no one would be able to hide from his Divine Consciousness on the Lord Battlefield.

After Liu Yin confirmed no one was around, his attitude changed slightly. His eyes contained a hint of hostility as he said, “Duan Ling Tian, you’re quite brave to come here alone.”

“Elder Liu Yin, aren’t you the same?” Duan Ling Tian said with a slight smile.

“How is it the same? I’m an intermediate Lord of Gods, after all. If I’m not mistaken, you’re a rudimentary Lord of Gods, right?” Liu Yin asked. Earlier, when Duan Ling Tian attacked, he did not pay attention to it so he could not guess Duan Ling Tian’s cultivation base. In the past, he would never have thought a rudimentary Lord of Gods would be able to become an intermediate Lord of Gods in just 20 years. However, the other party was Duan Ling Tian so he was uncertain. After all, Duan Ling Tian took a shockingly short time to become a rudimentary Lord of Gods.

“Yes.” Duan Ling Tian nodded. He knew what Liu Yin was thinking. He allowed his Divine Energy to cover his body immediately.

Upon sensing the Divine Energy of a rudimentary Lord of Gods, Liu Yin’s vigilant expression disappeared, and his eyes brightened immediately. At the same time, killing intent flashed in his eyes.

“What’s the matter? Elder Liu Yin, do you plan to kill me? I don’t think we have any conflicts between us,” Duan Ling Tian said as his eyes flashed with some indecipherable emotion.

Liu Yin smiled and said calmly, “It’s true that we have no conflict between us. However, the 10,000 Devils faction has conflicts with you. After all, you killed Kuang Tian Zheng, a member of our faction.”

After Liu Yin finished speaking, he no longer concealed his killing intent.

“Elder Liu Yin, I didn’t kill Kuang Tian Zheng. He was executed by the sect,” Duan Ling Tian said calmly.

“No matter what, he died because of you,” Liu Yin said coldly, “Moreover, you also have a close relationship with Xue Hai Chuan and Xue Hai Shan, and those two are my enemies. My enemies’ friends are also my enemies…”

As soon as his voice fell, Liu Yin pushed his hand out.

The space began to twist and energy began to surge immediately.

“There’s no point in trying to escape. I comprehend the law of space as well.”

Liu Yin disrupted the space around Duan Ling Tian, preventing Duan Ling Tian from teleporting away. Although he was confident he would be able to catch up to Duan Ling Tian even if Duan Ling Tian escaped, it was less troublesome if he just directly prevented Duan Ling Tian from leaving.

“Killing me isn’t a small crime, you know?” Duan Ling Tian said with a raised eyebrow. His calm, not even the slightest bit panicked.

“If I kill you on the Lord Battlefield and destroy all traces of you. Who’s going to find out?”

Liu Yin sneered as his Divine Energy swept out, imbuing it with his law of space. Following that, a spatial storm raged around him.

“Very well.”

Liu Yin was surprised by Duan Ling Tian’s nonchalance after learning of his intention.

Duan Ling Tian said with a smile, “Initially, I was rather conflicted. I didn’t know if I should help Brother Hai Chuan and Brother Hai Shan get rid of you. After all, we have no conflict between us. However, your words and actions have solved my dilemma. You’re right. If I kill you on the Lord Battlefield and remove all traces, no one will know that I killed you.”

Upon hearing Duan Ling Tian’s words, Liu Yin laughed as though he had heard a funny joke; he was unafraid. Then, he said coldly, “Duan Ling Tian, your death is imminent, and yet, you’re still bragging. Do you really think you, a rudimentary Lord of Gods, can kill me, an intermediate Lord of Gods?”

Liu Yin had been on the Lord Battlefield over the past two months so he was unaware that Duan Ling Tian had killed two intermediate Lords of Gods. Otherwise, he would not be in the mood to ridicule Duan Ling Tian.

“I really want to see the means of a White Dragon Elder. I hope you won’t let me down,” Duan Ling Tian said as his purple robe began to flutter. Similarly, a spatial storm began to rage around him. The profundities in the spatial storm were clearly stronger than those of Liu Yin.

“I didn’t expect your comprehension to be so profound,” Liu Yin said. As someone who also comprehended the law of space, he could tell that Duan Ling Tian’s comprehension of the law was quite profound even though Duan Ling Tian had yet to make a move. Then, he said, “If you were an intermediate Lord of Gods, I might not be a match for you. Alas, you’re just a rudimentary Lord of Gods.”
