2274 Meeting Huang Qi Ling Again
When unfavorable news about Duan Ling Tian was still circulating in the Wandering Saint Palace, another two news caused a commotion in the palace.
“Chen An was killed because he said offensive words about the powerhouse’s woman?”
“Chen Tong was killed because he attacked that powerhouse without listening to the reason why his son was killed?!”
This news, naturally, caused an uproar, because previously, many people thought the Chen family was wronged. Moreover, since the Chen family was part of the Wandering Saint Palace, it was only natural that they would be biased against an outsider like Duan Ling Tian.
When this news spread out, although most people stopped feeling sorry for the Chen family, they still doubted the authenticity of the news.
“Is the news true?” Many people were skeptical.
After all, these two pieces of news had been spread so quickly as though it had been done on purpose.
“It should be true… After all, it came from the patrolling disciples on the scene. Compared to those patrolling disciples who were hiding, they should have a better understanding of what really happened.” Some people who knew the truth confirmed the veracity of the news.
As such, the news began to spread…
Eventually, almost everyone in the palace knew what the Chen family had done. Naturally, there were some idiots who continued to defend the Chen family.
“Regardless if the Chen family was in the wrong or not, that person has humiliated our Wandering Saint Palace for daring to kill our people in our territory!”
“You’re right! We can’t let that brat live!”
“If that madman is allowed to live, doesn’t that mean that anyone can just trample on the pride and dignity of the Wandering Saint Palace?”
“We must ask the Palace Master to punish him!”
It did not take long before another news spread again.
“The person who killed the Chen family is also pure human? He’s a Human-Devil like us? He came to the Wandering Saint Palace to join us? However, due to the Chen family’s hostility, we lost a patrolling disciple as well?”
Saint Palace to join us? However, due to the Chen family’s hostility, we lost a patrolling disciple as wd^
This news stunned the people in the Wandering Saint Palace. The person they thought of as a madman was a Human- Devil as well, one of their kin? He had come to join the Wandering Saint Palace?
Again, another uproar broke out.
“Goodness! So that powerhouse is one of our kind? He plans to join us as our comrade?”
“Since he’s able to kill Elder Lin Yuan with two moves, even if he’s not as strong as our Palace Master, he should be at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, right?”
“How stupid are the people from Chen family to reject such a powerhouse? They’re really stupid!”
“Humph! It seems that the Chen family is to blame for their death!”
Currently, no one in the Wandering Saint Palace sympathized or defended the Chen family any longer. Instead, they began to blame the Chen family.
Naturally, this was because they found out the powerhouse was one of their kind. Not only that, but he had planned to join their Wandering Saint Palace. If a powerhouse at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage joined them, the Wandering Saint Palace would only grow stronger. This was good news for everyone.
Although the members from the Wandering Saint Palace from the Human-Devil clan were referred to as Human- Devils, they were all humans. In the Dao Martial Saint Land, they were known as Devil Cultivators. As such, they did not have a sense of belonging to the Devil Clans or the Human-Devil clan. They only felt a sense of belonging in the Wandering Saint Palace. It was only natural that they wanted the Wandering Saint Palace to grow stronger. With a second powerhouse at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, there was no doubt the Wandering Saint Palace would grow even stronger.
Now that they found out one of their kind at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage planned to join the Wandering Saint Palace but was obstructed by the Chen family, how could they not feel furious? After all, the act of the Chen family rejecting the powerhouse was equivalent to restricting the growth of the Wandering Saint Palace.
“Not only did the father and son from the Chen family cause the death of a patrolling disciple, they even caused the death of Elder Lin Yuan. d.a.m.n it! They really deserve to die!” Many people remarked.
“Actually, what you said is not entirely correct,” someone who was privy to what happened stepped forward and said, “The death of Elder Lin Yuan is not related to the father and son from the Chen family… It’s due to the private enmity between Elder Lin Yuan and the powerhouse who wanted to join our Wandering Saint Palace! Due to his deep-seated hatred toward that powerhouse, he couldn’t wait and tried to seek revenge from the powerhouse!”
“Private enmity? What’s it about?” Many people were confused.
“Everyone should remember the incident last year… Do you remember when Lin Qi Gang, He Sen Jie, and Situ Yu Ji who were the grandson of Elder Lin Yuan, son of Elder He Qing, and grandson of Elder He Wei respectively were found dead outside the ruin that’s allegedly left behind by a Celestial-grade Saint Inscription Master?”
Yes! That incident caused such a huge commotion at that time. It was said that those three are killed by a Human- Devil called Duan Ling Tian.”
“That Duan Ling Tian seems to be one of us…C-could it be that…”
“You’re right! He’s the powerhouse who killed the father and son from the Chen family and Elder Lin Yuan!”
“Goodness! It’s actually him!”
Everyone in the Wandering Saint Palace was thoroughly shocked when they found out about this.
That powerhouse was actually Duan Ling Tian, the murderer of their three elders’ son, grandson, and G.o.dson?
“It’s unbelievable and unexpected… I’m really surprised that he’s that person from a year ago!”
“If he’s the murderer…It’s not surprising that Elder Lin Yuan attacked him. However, Elder Lin Yuan must not have expected his opponent would be so strong. Otherwise, he wouldn’t attack him in such a haste.”
“Exactly! Even if Elder Lin Yuan wanted to seek revenge, he would think twice about it. Otherwise, he would die!”
“That’s right. It’s definitely a stupid move!”
The Wandering Saint Palace was in chaos over this matter.
“Duan Ling Tian? Brother Ling Tian? Is it him?”
In a s.p.a.cious mansion of a Vice Palace Master of Wandering Saint Palace, a young man dressed in luxurious robes suddenly rose to his feet. An expression of surprise was evident on his face when he heard the news. He was not a stranger to the name Duan Ling Tian.
After all, a year ago, he would have died in the ruin that was allegedly left behind by a Celestial-grade Saint Inscription Master if Duan Ling Tian was not around. He did not expect Duan Ling Tian would come to the Wandering Saint Palace after a year had pa.s.sed!
Forget about killing Elder Chen Tong with just two moves, it’s terrifying that he killed Elder Lin Yuan with just two moves. Is it possible that his cultivation is at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage?’ The heart of the young man who was dressed in a luxurious robe thumped wildly in his chest when he thought about this.
After all, Lin Yuan was an elder at the Eighth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. Although he was not at the peak of the Eighth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, there was no doubt that he was very strong.
This young man who dressed in a luxurious robe was none other than Huang Qi Ling, the disciple from Wandering Saint Palace, whom Duan Ling Tian met a year ago.
At that time, Huang Qi Ling had followed Duan Ling Tian around since he thought Duan Ling Tian was a member of Wandering Saint Palace because Duan Ling Tian was human. At that time, Huang Qi Ling and Duan Ling Tian had gotten into a conflict with three disciples from the Wandering Saint Palace.
The three disciples from the Wandering Saint Palace had surrounded Duan Ling Tian, intending to kill him. However, they were all killed by Duan Ling Tian instead. Those three were the son, grandson, and G.o.dson of the Wandering Saint Palace’s elders.
It seems like he’s currently in the Wandering Saint Palace’s estate.’ When Huang Qi Ling thought of this, he flew into the sky without any hesitation and left the s.p.a.cious mansion.
The Wandering Saint Palace had an independent s.p.a.ce where they hosted guests. It was divided into a few areas. Important guests would be given a place to stay in one of the independent mansions.
Upon arrival, Huang Qi Ling simply asked around before he found out where Duan Ling Tian and his family were staying.
Huang Qi Ling rushed into the independent mansion Duan Ling Tian was staying in and cried out, “Brother Ling Tian!’ Although his voice was not loud, it permeated the independent mansion due to Saint Origin contained in his voice.
A gentle and familiar replied to Huang Qi Ling. “Come in.”
Huang Qi Ling smiled. It seemed like the owner of that voice did not forget him.
“How did you find out that I’m here?” Duan Ling Tian smiled when he saw Huang Qi Ling again. He had a rather good impression of this disciple from the Wandering Saint Palace.
