Chapter 272: Storm Summit

Chapter 272: Storm Summit

“Tang Ling! It’s Tang Ling!” cried a soldier from the Stardust Council. In his panic, his hands holding the gun trembled and he almost misfired, but fortunately did not in the end.

The bullets from firearms could not penetrate the purple barrier of this mysterious entrance. Therefore, everyone watched helplessly as Tang Ling appeared before them, throwing out body after body.

They saw four bodies of Draconic Seven’s trusted men, Colo’s body, and lastly, Draconic Seven’s body!

Unbelievable!

The infamous Brutal Seven had died?! He was one of the important figures of the Stardust Council, who were genius prodigies, and one of the prestiged Stardust Sixteen! And he had died by Tang Ling’s hand?!

Impossible! It had only been an hour after he entered the mysterious entrance, and he died without getting anything!

Everyone else was in disbelief, but the facts were laid out before their eyes. Draconic Seven’s eyes remained wide open even in death, stating his grievance until his last breath.

Among the three of them, other than Tang Ling, who could have killed him?

Since the first day of their confrontation, several of the soldiers heard Tang Ling declare that he would kill Draconic Seven. Now, everything had become true.

Tang Ling did not care about those fazed soldiers. He turned around and went back in, disappearing from the soldiers’ sight.

…

Before the heated discussion about the queen completely faded, the world news welcomed another new big scoop to their headlines. This time, the headlines shouted about Tang Ling again.

‘Tang Ling Rivals The Troops Of The Stardust Council. Young Master Seven Dies In The Confrontation.’

“Stardust Sixteen To Become Fifteen, Draconic Seven Dies By Tang Ling’s Hand.’

‘Fallen Genius, Draconic Seven! The Rise Of Tang Ling.’

Sure enough, it was the third time Tang Ling’s name was splayed out on the headlines of all the newspapers of the world. This round, the majority of the media used the word ‘rise’.

If the first time was about Tang Ling’s appearance in the public’s eye, and the second time proved his capabilities, the third time, which was after he killed Draconic Seven, would be the time for the world to view him as a young prodigy, a true genius that belonged to the elite class.

If the young prodigies of the elite class were to grow up smoothly, they would surely be someone that could influence the world, or so people thought. Describing the incident as the rise of Tang Ling was very apt. Moreover, he was Tang Feng’s son, so everyone had an unusually high and interesting outlook on him.

“Put Tang Ling’s name on the Fallen Star List and put a bounty on his head: 1 million Stardust coins. Send it out to the world. I want him either alive or dead. Anyone who can provide important information on him will be rewarded with 100,000 Stardust coins,” the vice president of the Stardust Council announced the important decision to all the council members inside the huge council hall.

In the Stardust Council, there were three tiered sure-kill lists, which were the Fallen Star List, the Elimination Star List, and the Destroyed Star List. The lowest tier was the Fallen Star List whilst the highest was the Destroyed Star List. Tang Feng’s name was once on the Destroyed Star List and he was the number one target.

No one would have thought that the son of Tang Feng, who was only 15 years of age, would be on the Fallen Star List and have a 1 million Stardust coin bounty on him. That put Tang Ling in the 47th place of the Fallen Star List which only contained 50 names.

The names that were on the lists were all famous figures, powerhouses and important figures who had once done something shocking to the world.

Once the names were on the list, not only would the Stardust Council spend every ounce of power, influence and resources to hunt them down, but even the whole world would join the hunt due to the huge bounty.

Many councilmen believed that putting Tang Ling’s name on the Fallen Star List was a huge fuss over something minor, but the vice president announced the decision himself. In consideration of Tang Ling’s identity, no councilmen argued with the decision anymore.

Therefore, the second day after the news about Tang Ling killing Draconic Seven shocked everyone, another big news took the world by storm.

‘1 Million Bounty! The Beef Between The Stardust Council And The Tang Father And Son Continues!’

‘The Boy With The Highest Bounty, Tang Ling, Is Worth 1 Million.’

‘This Will Only End With His Death! Murdering Tang Ling In The Cradle, The Fallen Star List Adds A New Name.’

Pak!

Tang Long slammed the newspaper on the table. He did not expect the council to put Tang Ling’s name on the Fallen Star List.

Would Tang Ling die before he could kill him? In Tang Long’s heart, only Tang Ling was worthy of being his match, and he was the one who would eventually behead Tang Ling with his sword. He would never allow others to steal the kill.

Because of Tang Ling, his heart had cracked and only with Tang Ling’s death could the crack be filled and make his heart whole again.

Moreover, Tang Ling had killed Draconic Seven. The Stardust Sixteen were important allies to him because they were the selected ones that would conquer the world with him in the future. Every single one of them was valuable to Tang Long.

Draconic Seven’s death made Tang Long furious. As the leader of the Stardust Sixteen, if he did not avenge his men, he would be in no position to lead them anymore.

“Tang Ling must die by my hand and my hand alone.” Tang Long decided before he called his bodyguard over. “Spread the news. Those who can give me Tang Ling’s location will get a million from me too. Remember, I only want his location, and not for anyone to take him in. Otherwise, I’ll deal with whosoever is responsible.”

“Yes, Sir.”

After Tang Long’s bodyguard stepped away, Wei came into the room. He was just there to ask Tang Long a question on behalf of the queen. “When do they depart to Darkness Port?”

It had been a little over two weeks since they came back from the Moon Chasing Celebration. Tang Long was busy breaking through the final Fullest State, which was to master the strength of nine bulls and two tigers completely and expel the extra materials out of his body. It was the hardest part of cultivating. Despite being a little over half a month, he was far from reaching his goal.

On the other hand, the trip to Darkness Port should not be delayed either. According to Qi Dou, he must get to Darkness Port before December. Otherwise, he would miss the chance to meet Zero.

Tang Long looked at the date. It was already early November and it was time for him to depart.

“Tell the queen we leave tomorrow.”

As he thought about being together with Higan alone in the upcoming days, Tang Long’s slightly frustrated mood gradually calmed down. It was then replaced with a sweet mood.

Higan was already a shining star in the world and there was another saying that the people of the world acknowledged. He and Higan were made for each other.

“Han Xing, get ready quickly and head to Darkness Port.” After Han Ze packed the luggage for his son on this particular day, he told his son to depart.

“Why? I’m not going, Holy Tree City is amazing! It’s always spring here! And there are so many junior sisters waiting for me to teach them swordplay, so I must keep my promise. I’m not going!” Han Xing rejected Han Ze straightforwardly.

“You aren’t? Too bad then. I was ready to give you the Azure Dragon Sword, but if you aren’t going, I guess you’ll have to wait until I’m dead to get it.” As he sighed, Han Ze put an azure sheathed sword on the table.

While the sheath shielded the sword itself, the sheath itself was emanating an extraordinary presence. The azure sheath had an unusual luster, and upon a closer look, the sheath was actually made from leather of a certain type of animal. The luster came from the scales on top of the leather.

The hilt of the sword was shaped like a dragon claw using superalloy, appearing ferocious and powerful as it emanated the beauty of killing.

Han Xing gulped in greed as he laid his eyes on the Azure Dragon Sword. He scratched his head and looked hesitant before he stammered, “B-but Xiao Mei…she’ll be very disappointed.”

“Fine, you can stay here. Oh, did I mention that the Nine Stamen Lotus only appears in Darkness Port? The best Starry Ghastly Fish were also from Darkness Port, and…” Han Ze sighed as though he was feeling pity for Han Xing.

“Wait, Dad, did you just mention the Nine Stamen Lotus? It’s in Darkness Port?” Han Xing responded seriously.

“Yeah, what’s the problem?” Han Ze was not overly concerned.

“Isn’t…isn’t that…unconfirmed? Its existence hasn’t been proven in the Purple Moon era, has it?” Han Xing had a hard time believing his father.

“But there is a chance in Darkness Port that the Nine Stamen Lotus will appear…If you have the heart, you can go to the aide or your bros who are the sons of great scientists anyway. They must have access to high-end communication devices, don’t they?”

“You can login to the Moon Chaser Pavilion internal forum to have a look either. Here, I’ll give you a temporary account, so you can find out what the chances are in Darkness Port. It’s not just the Nine Stamen Lotus.”

“If I’m correct, there are many young prodigies heading there as well,” Han Ze leisurely explained to Han Xing, not in a hurry at all.

“I’m going!” Han Xing was all riled up all of a sudden.

“Didn’t you just reject me? I don’t think you should go. The young prodigies are all there, so I’m afraid that you’ll bring shame to yourself.” Han Ze shook his head, acting like he did not want Han Xing to go this time.

“I don’t care. I’m going! What do you mean ‘shame on me’?! Only a handful can walk away after ten strikes of my sword,” Han Xing cried loudly, refusing to accept his father’s sneer.

“Cut the crap. Give me the Azure Dragon Sword. I’m leaving right away,” Han Xing commanded in a hurry.

“The Azure Dragon Sword isn’t for you right now. You aren’t even a Purple Moon Warrior and you can’t even wield it properly. I’m saying that when you return from Darkness Port, you’ll be ready for it.” Han Ze shook his head while rejecting his son.

“What?! Dad, you are such a liar!” Han Xing threw a tantrum.

“Whatever. I don’t even care about you going to Darkness Port anymore.” Han Ze revealed a grin.

“Fine, I’ll get there! Wait for me! I’ll rise in Darkness Port and I’ll be famous!” Han Xing grumpily snatched the luggage from the table and walked away.

His destination was Darkness Port.

“As you wish.”

“Nan Yu, go, to Darkness Port.”

“Yes, Master, but I’m not going to search for the path of fate.”

“You must remember. Someone sent you to me and your fate already started since then.”

…

“Xi Feng, it’s time for you to go to Darkness Port.”

“Master, wait for me. I’ll always be by your side.”

“My child, are you trying to fight your fate? Are you going to throw away your gratitude?”

“I’ll never forget my gratitude. At the worst, I’ll have to repay the debt of gratitude before I come back to you.”

…

“Dong Yang, go. Darkness Port is calling.”

“Master, I think fate is something that changes constantly. This time, I’ll search for my chance and if I meet the one that I’m supposed to meet, we will see who shall follow who, let our strength speak for itself.”

“If you believe you can do it, go ahead.”

“Wait for my news, Master.”

The era had finally begun.

In Darkness Port, countless young ones would gather and eventually become the grand stream that overran the era.
