The Against Heaven

Chapter 42: Visit of Princess Li Shuangyan (4)

Li Shuangyan had a suspicion that Li Han Tian had seen the ancient formation elsewhere before, yet she quickly rejected this idea, instead, because the Nine Heavenly Gate Sect had to pay a heavy price to obtain one copy of the broken formation left behind by the Formation Ancestor. It could be said that, other than the Formation Ancestor who had died in ancient times, only their Nine Heavenly Gate Sect knew about the existence of this broken formation.

But now, Li Han Tian with a single glance, had been able to recite information regarding the broken formation as if it was something insignificant, and nothing more than a memorization lesson.

This left Li Shuangyan terrified to the point of being speechless for a long time, she had spent ten years of research, along with the guidance of many generations of great sages from the Nine Heavenly Gate Sect, yet all of this was only the same as a few words that were spoken hurriedly by him? Such an incident greatly damaged his confidence.

Even the most heavenly talents were unable to comprehend the formation with just one glance, but Li Han Tian had done just that. Li Han Tian's words alone could defeat all of these geniuses. The worst part was, Li Han Tian was not a genius!

Li Shuangyan had no idea that Li Han Tian had seen the complete formation as a whole during the ancient times, and that was why, after seeing the ancient beast fur, her memories of the formation reappeared.

“Come.” At this point Li Han Tian casually gestured for Li Shuangyan to approach.

As Li Shuangyan was still recovering from her shock, she subconsciously approached Li Han Tian. He doesn't even know why he did it.

“Pa, Pa, Pa!” Li Shuangyan was still in a daze, so Li Han Tian grabbed her, placed her on his lap, laid her down, and mercilessly for beauty, swung her big hand to her butt a few times, putting it on her back, he caused it to burn.

“What are you doing?!” Li Shuangyan was like a cat whose tail was stepped on, as she jumped to her feet and shouted loudly. His face reddened, and he angrily looked at Li Han Tian.

As for Li Han Tian, he simply patted his palm comfortably, as if it was a trivial thing to do, before slowly saying: “As my servant, you should be aware of your situation. I can forgive the people around me, and like the people around me, this includes you, even if you are just a maid. However, you must remember, never provoke me! Don't think that just because you are the beloved daughter of heaven, you can turn the earth around!”

“You!” Li Shuangyan boiled with anger. She is the favorite daughter of heaven and the daughter of the Old Cow Country. In the past until now, he had always been in a high position, and no one dared to be disrespectful to him. However, today a little man mercilessly punched his butt, this kind of shameful thing really made him tremble.

“Go, find a place to stay by yourself.” Li Han Tian gestured with his sleeve to imply the departure of the guest, ignoring Li Shuangyan's feelings.

“You... Little man! You…! You better remember this!” In the end, without knowing how to vent his anger, he uttered each word indistinctly. He was always superior, looking down from his high position, and many talented young men wanted to win his heart. However today, Li Han Tian uttered a few hateful sentences, and he then told her to leave, he did not even arrange for her residence. This really made him angry!

Li Shuangyan left with an angry waving hand in the air, Your Majesty at eighteen years old, was provoked by a thirteen year old boy to the point of wanting to vomit blood. Even he couldn't believe it.

“Don't try to practice that ‘Eternal Emperor Slaughter Formation’ again.” At this point, Li Han Tian's calm voice echoed from behind: “The formation in your hand is just a small corner of the Immortal Emperor Slaughter Formation. If you force yourself to cultivate it, one day you will be destroyed by that formation. Even the people who knew it since ancient times did not dare to cultivate it simply, let alone you. If you really want to refine this array, once your cultivation matures, I will think of teaching you a thing or two.”

Based on Li Shuangyan's cultivation and talent, most people usually didn't get the chance to ask for her guidance, and now a little man like Li Han Tian wanted to guide her?

However, the four words “The Immortal Emperor Slaughter Formation” made him stop in his tracks. This formation was a legend left behind by many generations. Most people did not believe in his existence, but Li Han Tian talked about it as if he was clutching it in the palm of his hand.

Although he was curious, his anger had not subsided, because of his pride. Therefore, he simply pouted furiously, and he ignored Li Han Tian. Then, he continued to leave.

Li Han Tian did not care whether Li Shuangyan was in a good mood or not, she simply sat in her chair in silence. Immortal Emperor Slaughter Formation! How many years have passed? His lost memories suddenly reappeared once he saw the corner of this broken formation.

In the era of the war against the Ancient Ming, how many people died in this formidable formation? What price did he have to pay to construct this formation?

This invincible ancient formation; a formation that upon completion would sacrifice the blood of many masters. Many immortal sages and themselves spent their blood and sweat to make this formation.

In the devastating war against the Ancient Ming, for the Mortal World and all the Human races, many masters had died in this formation. He controlled the grand formation, side by side with his brothers, generals, and comrades, to fight in a heaven-shattering battle, blood coloring the heavens and earth.

Time can erase everything, and time can heal all wounds, but some memories cannot be forgotten even with the passage of time, because they are embedded in the deepest depths of the soul, can never be forgotten.

Li Han Tian sighed, and he regained his composure. He did not allow himself to drown in emotions and enjoy the sentimental past. The past has passed, and the present is worth living. In this life, he would have the opportunity to traverse the Nine Worlds and personally pay back some old value, not just for himself, but for the people who have sacrificed themselves for him as well.

****************

Li Shuangyan's visit to the Heaven Ancient Sect was an important event, not only making the young male disciples unable to sleep, but also making the upper ranks excited.

Only Li Han Tian acted like nothing big had happened. He did not care whether Li Shuangyan would leave or stay, if he was willing to pledge allegiance to her, then in the future he would reserve a place for her next to him. If not, then so be it. He would not lose a capable assistant. Even without him, he could find a replacement. This simple!

Tonight, Li Shuangyan with a stomach filled with angry steam. He gritted his teeth silently cursing at Li Han Tian. He did not live in Li Han Tian's small house, nor did he leave this place, yet he chose to create a small treasure building from the corner of Li Han Tian's peak, instead, and he went inside. Although he did not stay with Li Han Tian, he did not leave his peak either.

With the arrival of Li Shuangyan and Yu He, the greatest harvest was obtained by Protector Mo and Nan Huairen as they were responsible for the entire journey of Yu He and his people in the Heaven Ancient Sect.

This was not a small event, since they could cooperate with a Royal Noble like Yu He, they could ask many questions about his cultivation and experience, this was a huge advantage. The most important thing was still Li Han Tian's words, which allowed the position of Protector Mo and Nan Huairen to increase rapidly within the sect.

Yu He obeyed Li Han Tian's orders, and he left everything to Protector Mo and Nan Huairen to decide. They became special envoys between the two sects.

We must remember that before the disciples, and even the Six Elders of the Heaven Ancient Sect, would not necessarily be able to meet Grand Protector Yu He. However, now that simple organizers like Nan Huairen and Protector Mo could meet directly with Yu He to discuss the event, this meant that the relationship between the two sects became more intimate.

The increase in status of Nan Huairen and Protector Mo, this made many Protectors, Section Leaders, third generation disciples, and even the second generation envious.

Despite all the commotion, Li Han Tian did not care. The most important thing for him right now was to refine his Dao foundation, not allow room for error, and carefully cultivate toward flawless perfection. Once any mistake was made, this small mistake would become a fatal danger on the path of cultivation, especially when he was facing the Life Reduction and Fate Calamity period. As long as his foundation was solid, with a strong Dao foundation, then in the future he could go further, he could exceed the peak.

Many geniuses wanted to accelerate their cultivation rankings and they ignored the refinement of the Dao foundation, rushing to succeed caused the Dao foundation to have a flaw. In the end, they died in regret at the moments of Life Reduction and the Catastrophe of Destiny.

This was why Li Han Tian's expectations for himself were so high. Although the Unrivalled Revolving Crescent Sun Merit Laws could increase his cultivation speed, he still limited their effects to obtain a solid foundation. If he stopped his own suppression, then he could easily break through to the Inner Longevity rank.

****************

Li Shuangyan had stayed in the Heaven Ancient Sect for seven days. Time had passed without incident, but this morning Nan Huairen visited Li Han Tian's peak along with a middle-aged man.

“Senior, this person is Section Leader Zhou, an instructor at Jade Cleansing Peak.” Nan Huairen immediately introduced the man to Li Han Tian.

His senior only glanced at Section Leader Zhou once, and he nodded his head: “What's the matter?”

Li Han Tian's attitude was arrogant in Section Leader Zhou's eyes, and his heart was uneasy. He coldly scowled, but he did not say another sentence.

Nan Huairen quickly replied: “The elder has decided that the senior will temporarily replace Section Leader Zhou as the instructor of the Cleansing Jade Peak. Today, Section Leader Zhou brought along a list of disciples from the Cleansing Jade Peak, as well as detailed information regarding them. The Elders hoped the seniors would accept this decision. ”

The leader of Zhou's faction just silently listened. He, a Section Leader, met Li Han Tian, but Li Han Tian did not show him any respect. He left the list behind, and he then turned around without leaving any words or reminders.
