The War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

Xiao Yu and Xiao Xun were helpless, because however they persuaded, Duan Ling Tian insisted on acting deliberately and was determined to leave.

At dusk, Xiao Yu and Xiao Xun accompanied Duan Ling Tian to walk out the gate.

Duan Ling Tian had just walked out when he saw a fierce gaze descend onto his body and lock him up.

"You're Duan Ling Tian?" Far in the distance, the gaze of the City Guard Army Commander Xue Lu was like lightning as he stared fixedly at Duan Ling Tian, as if he was extremely afraid that Duan Ling Tian would vanish from his sight.

Among the students of Paladin Academy, even 1st grade students were usually around 20 years old, and 18 year old students were extremely rare. Most importantly, this young man was wearing purple clothes, exactly similar to Duan Ling Tian rumors. Thus, Xue Lu was easily recognizable to Duan Ling Tian.

“The two of you go home first,” Duan Ling Tian smiled to Xiao Yu and Xiao Xun.

However, Xiao Xun and Xiao Yu did not leave. As friends, how could they leave this time?

Friends have trouble together!

Duan Ling Tian smiled and did not persuade the two of them. After all, as far as he was concerned, everything before him was just a joke and nothing to worry about.

“Exactly, I'm Duan Ling Tian.” Duan Ling Tian walked with large strides towards Xue Lu with a cheerful expression as if it was not the ferocious tiger that was before him, but just a docile little cat.

Xue Lu focused his fierce gaze on descending onto Duan Ling Tian. "You actually used the offense inscription to immobilize my son's Dantian, destroying his future and his entire life.. Before you did this, did you ever think of what consequences it would have?"

Duan Ling Tian shrugged. His gaze was calm and there was always a smile on the corner of his mouth. He said, when he turned the Spatial Ring on his right hand, "Commander Xue, me and your son were strangers to each other before today. Why don't you ask why I crippled his dantian?"

"Oh!" Xue Lu's face sank as he shouted coldly. "I don't want to know why you crippled my son's Dantian, and I'm not interested in knowing... I only know that today, you, Duan Ling Tian, will definitely die!"

"Are you sure?" The speed at which Duan Ling Tian twisted the Spatial Ring in his hand became even faster, and his eyes showed a trace of disdain.

"You'll soon know why I'm so sure!" Xue Lu's eyes emitted killing intent as he suddenly took a step forward in an imposing manner that pierced through the sky!

"Xue Lu!" Right at this moment, a figure instantly emerged from the Paladin Academy like a ghost and descended before Duan Ling Tian to protect Duan Ling Tian and face Xue Lu.

Seeing that Xue Lu wanted to take action against him, Duan Ling Tian was already prepared to activate the Corrosion Bone Inscription to exterminate Xue Lu …. However the appearance of the figure in front of him made Duan Ling Tian stop the movement of his hand.

"Help Dean!" Duan Ling Tian was a little surprised when he saw the old man, but he still greeted him.

“Duan Ling Tian, you are really good at causing problems.” The gray-clothed old man, or in other words, the Vice Dean of the Paladin Academy, Zhan Xiong, shook his head with a smile.

Duan Ling Tian extended his hand to rub his nose as he laughed in embarrassment.

"Zhan Xiong!" Xue Lu's movements stopped and slowed down as well, and his face sank when he saw Zhan Xiong, "I respect the Paladin Academy, and thus do not force to kill this Duan Ling Tian, you still want to stop me outside of Paladin Academy? "

Zhan Xiong smiled lightly. "Commander Xue, you're overreacting. I certainly won't pay attention to things outside of the Paladin Academy.

"Then why don't you step aside?" Xue Lu's eyes turned cold as he cut Zhan Xiong in a low voice.

Right at this moment, a large and luxurious carriage, came from afar and caught the attention of everyone present. Even Xue Lu could not help but frown.

The carriage was directly charged to the gate; however, it was stopped by the City Guard Force officers.

"F**k off!" The old man who acted as the drive face of the carriage was drowned, then he pushed his palm and the vast Origin Energy condensed into a palm print and whistled before blowing up the City Guard Army officers blocking his way flying.

"Go!" The old man swung the horse whip in his hand and the three big horses pulled the carriage and directly entered.

"Hmm?" Duan Ling Tian looked at the old man with a slightly surprised expression.

If he was not mistaken, this old man was precisely the third oldest of the Duan Clan. To be able to make the third elder of the Duan Clan push the carriage, then the person inside the carriage would definitely have a very respected identity.

Duan Ling Tian was very curious.

Who'sis that?

"Xue Lu, dominate what you show!" An old voice filled with anger sounded from inside the carriage.

Next, Duan Qiu stood to the side and greeted the old man who came out of the carriage.

"Grand Elder!" Duan Ling Tians eyes were focused when he saw the old man coming out. He's a little surprised.

The Grand Elder of the Duan Clan was completely different from the Grand Elders of the Su Clan and the Xiao Clan.

Grand Elder Duan Clan Duan Zhen was the previous Patriarch of the Duan Clan and had an extraordinary status. His status within the Duan Clan surpassed that of the Patriarch and was similar to other Supreme Elders.

Xue Lu's face lowered as he saw the old man appear, as if he had heard Duan Ling Tian return to the clan and acknowledge his ancestor, he said, never did he imagine that this old man would personally come for Duan Ling Tian's sake.

“Greetings, Duan Zhen Senior.” Xue Lu took a deep breath, and he looked at Duan Zhen while bowing lightly.

"Xue Lu, you made a great display just to deal with an 18-year-old Duan Clan young man?" Duan Zhen's calm gaze descended on Xue Lu.

Instantly, Xue Lu felt a surge of pressure, and he took a deep breath as he firmly said, "Senior Duan Zhen, Xue Lu came here this time to take revenge for my son … I know this Duan Ling Tian is a genius disciple of the Duanmu Clan, but he crippled my son's Dantian and destroyed his entire life! "

"I've promised in front of my son that as long as I, Xue Lu, breathe in me, this Duan Ling Tian will not live until tomorrow! So, Senior Duan Zhen, once I take revenge for my son, then I will come apologizing to you. "

Xue Lu's tone of voice did not contain the slightest bit of politeness.

"Senior Duan Zhen, I respect you as an elder, but you better not go too far!" Xue Lu's face sank and completely turned hostile.

"Step too far? Hahahaha ..." Duan Zhen started laughing, and within his uncontrollable laughter, there seemed to be traces of a terrifying aura mixed within it.

Duan Ling Tian noticed this difference in aura at the first possible moment, and his eyes were focused, as he was shocked inwardly. "This Grand Elder is actually an existence at the Half-step Void Stage .. Yes, after all, he is the older generation of the Duan Clan."

Stage Void Half Step!

The student of Xue Lu shriveled, and he looked at Duan Zhen with an astonished expression. "You .. You are truly a martial artist at the Stage-Step Void Stage!"

"Huh! Me and your father, Xue Yun, are people of the same generation. The old goat has already broken through, could it be that I will be inferior to him?" Duan Zhen could not help but sneer when he saw Xue Lu's expression.

Meanwhile, the surrounding Paladin Academy students who were watching all had glowing gazes.

Of course, they did not understand what a Half-step Void Stage martial artist was and just thought that Duan Zhen was a Void Stage powerhouse.

"Grand Elder the Duan Clan is actually a Void Stage locomotive!"

"As expected of the previous Patriarch of the Duan Clan, his strength was truly staggering."

"Duan Ling Tian will probably be fine today, because the Void Stage powerhouse has appeared. Even though this Xue Lu is the Commander of the City Guards Army, I'm afraid he might become helpless."

. . .

Under the sound of discussion from the crowd of Paladin Academy students, Xue Lu's expression turned increasingly unsightly.

Never had he expected that the Duan Clan would actually send a half-and-a-half Void Stage powerhouse for the sake of Duan Ling Tian!

With the presence of this Half-step Void Stage powerhouse, not to mention him, even if he led the 1,000 City Guard Soldiers behind him, he was still unable to stop Duan Zhen …. And if Duan Zhen wanted to take Duan Ling Tian away with him, it would be very easy!

"Let's go!" Thinking up to this point, Xue Lu chose to retreat for the sake of progress, and an ice-cold gaze that had killing intent hidden within flashed past Duan Ling Tian's location.

Duan Ling Tian's brows were knitted, and did not bring Xue Lu's threat to the heart. As far as he was concerned, if Xue Lu dared to come looking for him, it would instantly kill himself!

However, Grand Elder Duan Zhen's appearance today, however, allowed him to save the Corrosion Bone Inscription.

The City Guards Army arrived in great anger, but now they were all retreating, causing the few people who had come to watch the show to be unable to stop themselves from sighing.

"I originally thought this Commander Xue Lu would be desperately, but I never expected him to just start with an explosion but end with a whimper."

"Yes, this is really not worth talking about, and it's just a waste of my time."

"It wasn't really a waste of time, at least we know the cause and effect of this matter .. This Duan Ling Tian was really too bold, actually daring to cripple Commander Xue Lu's only son!"

"Yes, this is not something anyone would dare to do."

. . .

After the City Guards Force retreated, the crowd that had come to watch the scene dispersed as well.

“Thank you, Grand Elder, for coming to save me.” Duan Ling Tian smiled at Duan Zhen. Although he was still confident to escape if Duan Zhen did not come, since Duan Zhen had arrived, it saved him the Corrosion Bone Inscription, so it was necessary for him to thank him.

“You really know how to stir up trouble, son.” Duan Zhen shook his head before his gaze descended on the gray-clothed old man at the side. "Zhan Xiong, long time no see."

"It's been a long time..It's been over 10 years, right?" Zhang Xiong nodded, and he clearly knew Duan Zhen.

“I'll go first,” Duan Zhen nodded at Zhan Xiong, before staring at Duan Ling Tian, “Nak, should I send you home?”

“Grand Elder, it is not necessary, I will go home alone.” Duan Ling Tian shook his head.

Duan Zhen nodded and did not say anything before returning to the carriage and directly leaving.

"Duan Ling Tian, aren't you worried that Xue Lu will turn around and catch you off guard?" Zhan Xiong looked at Duan Ling Tian as he asked with a smile.

“I hope he really comes back.” Under Zhan Xiong's stunned expression, Duan Ling Tian bid farewell to Xiao Yu and Xiao Xun before leaving.

Xiao Yu and Xiao Xun heaved a sigh of relief.

"I never expected Grandpa Duan Clan to come personally .. Could it be that Duan Ling Tian knew about it before? No wonder he's so calm." Xiao Yu's brows moved lightly as he guessed.

“I don't think I'm still worried about him,” Xiao Xun shook her head with a bitter smile on her face.

Meanwhile, the crowd of students at the gate dispersed.

But in their hearts, a surprise appeared.

The Duan Clan really made Duan Ling Tian extremely respected!

It even asked a Void Stage powerhouse to advance for Duan Ling Tian ….
