Chapter 3782: 100 Million Divine Rocks Is a Small Goal

Chapter 3779 100 Million Divine Rocks Is a Small Goal

The middle-aged man was none other than Linghu Zheng Xing who was stronger than Linghu Heng and Linghu Huan. In fact, he was the strongest person in the Linghu clan.

“Supreme Elder Zheng Xing?” Duan Ling Tian looked at Linghu Zheng Xian before looking at his back. He raised an eyebrow and asked, “Why are you here? Where’s the clan leader?”

Before leaving the Linghu clan’s estate, Linghu Huan had told Duan Ling Tian that Linghu Ren Jie had left with the other disciples of the Linghu clan ahead of time. Hence, he had expected to meet Linghu Ren Jie here. How could he not be surprised to see Linghu Zheng Xing instead?

“The clan leader?” Linghu Zheng Xing shook his head. “If you’re talking about Ren Jie, I’m afraid it’s no longer appropriate to refer to him as the clan leader. After all, he’s no longer the Clan Leader of the Linghu clan.”

Duan Ling Tian was shocked by these words. When he regained his senses, he frowned and asked in confusion, “Supreme Elder Zheng Xing, what do you mean?”

At the same time, Duan Ling Tian could sense the hostile and envious gazes from the disciples of the Linghu clan standing behind Linghu Zheng Xing.

Linghu Zheng Xing looked at Duan Ling Tian with a piercing gaze as he said, “Duan Ling Tian, do you know that one-third of our clan’s divine rocks were exhausted because you stayed in the chamber of law for three years? Do you know what the consequences are for something like this?”

Duan Ling Tian was briefly stunned before his expression changed drastically. He did not expect staying in the chamber of laws for three years would use up such a high number of divine rocks. One-third of the Linghu clan’s divine rocks had to be at least tens of millions of divine rocks from the divine rock vein. Although he had more than a million divine rocks, it was insignificant compared to one-third of the Linghu clan’s divine rocks. After taking a deep breath to calm down, he said apologetically, “I’m sorry, Supreme Elder Zheng Xing. I was unaware that staying in the chamber of laws for three years would cost so many divine rocks. However, this has nothing to do with the clan leader. You can punish me, but there’s no need to blame the clan leader.”

Duan Ling Tian did not expect Linghu Ren Jie would lose his position as clan leader over his matter. When he recalled his casual conversation with Linghu Ren Jie after leaving the chamber of laws, he was overwhelmed with guilt, especially when he thought about how Linghu Ren Jie did not mention the matter at all.

“There’s nothing you can do about it,” Linghu Zheng Xing shook his head and said, “Ren Jie has been stripped of his position as the clan leader. He will be punished accordingly… If you really want to repay his kindness, perform well in the Latent Dragon Grand Contest and make a name for yourself in the Flying Dragon Sect.” At this time, an idea appeared in Duan Ling Tian’s mind. He asked solemnly, “Supreme Elder Zheng Xing, how many divine rocks are one-third of the divine rocks in the Linghu clan’s divine rock veins that I used?”

Duan Ling Tian had guessed it had to be tens of millions, but he was not certain.

“Why do you ask?” Linghu Zheng Xing asked.

“Supreme Elder Zheng Xing, please tell the elders not to elect another clan leader for another 100 years. I promise to return the divine rocks I used within 100 years,” Duan Ling Tian said determinedly as he looked at Duan Ling Tian.

Linghu Zheng Xing was taken aback by Duan Ling Tian’s words. Then, he burst into a fit of laughter. “Duan Ling Tian, do you know how many divine rocks are one-third of the divine rocks in our clan’s divine rock veins?”

“I don’t know the exact figure, but I guess it should be tens of millions,” Duan Ling Tian replied.

“That’s right. So you know the number is insanely high, but you dare to make such a promise? You used roughly 40 million divine rocks,” Linghu Zheng Xing said as he shook his head.

Duan Ling Tian’s eyes flashed with determination as he said, “Alright. I’ll return the Linghu clan 100 million divine rocks within 100 years.”

Duan Ling Tian did not think it was a big problem to accumulate 100 million divine stones in 100 years. If he could not even do something like this, how was he going to prove himself to the Xia clan that was a supreme-rank force 300 years later?

Before Linghu Zheng Xing could respond, a group of disciples standing at the back laughed. “100 million divine rocks? Revered Elder Duan, you’re really ignorant? Do you know how much is 100 million divine rocks?”

“Do you think the elders will agree to your request because of this unrealistic promise?”

“Of course not! What a joke!”

“Well, he might be able to accumulate 100 million divine rocks if he’s able to refine king-grade Limit Divine Pills and sell them over the next 100 years.”

Needless to say, the disciples from the Linghu clan thought Duan Ling Tian was spouting nonsense.

On the other hand, Linghu Zheng Xing asked, “Are you serious?”

“Of course,” Duan Ling Tian said without hesitation.

Linghu Huan, who had remained silent from the beginning, finally said, “Ling Tian, I believe you even if it’s unrealistic. You have my support in this matter. I’ll let the others know about my stance. This includes my elder brother as well.”

Duan Ling Tian was moved by Linghu Huan’s words. He looked at Linghu Heng gratefully as well without saying anything.

At this time, Linghu Zheng Xing said, “You have my support as well. I’ll send a message to the elders now. I don’t see them refusing since 100 years is nothing. Moreover, it won’t affect the elders much since they’re already managing the clan’s affairs anyway. There won’t be a problem if we hold off selecting a new clan leader for 100 years.”

Duan Ling Tian heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing Linghu Zheng Xing’s words before he thanked him.

The disciples from the Linghu clan who mocked Duan Ling Tian earlier naturally did not dare to speak at this moment. Since the supreme elders had spoken, how could they say anything? They could only wait for Duan Ling Tian to embarrass himself 100 years later.

At this moment, Duan Ling Tian received a message from Linghu Ren Jie.

“Duan Ling Tian, there’s no need for you to do such a thing. In fact, I’ve grown tired of shouldering the burden of the Linghu clan. Now that I’m free, how can you place the burden on me again?”

Duan Ling Tian instantly replied, “Clan leader, you lost your position because of me. I promise to return the divine rocks in 100 years. At that time, when the position is given back to you, you can choose to refuse it.”

Linghu Ren Jie did not doubt Duan Ling Tian at all. In the end, he only sighed and said, “Thank you.”

“No, I should thank you instead. You took care of me at my lowest point. I won’t forget to repay your kindness when I achieve great things in the future!” Duan Ling Tian said.

Linghu Ren Jie did not know that Duan Ling Tian was dead serious about this promise that he made.

About an hour later, the elders finally reached an agreement and sent a message to Linghu Zheng Xing

“Duan Ling Tian, the elders have agreed to your request. However, the clan has no intention of taking advantage of you. Hence, as long as you return 50 million divine rocks, Ren Jie will be reinstated as the Clan Leader of the Linghu clan. As for now, the clan won’t select a new clan leader, and the elders will be managing the clan for now,” Linghu Zheng Xing said.

Duan Ling Tian was relieved upon hearing these words. His gaze was resolute as he said, “I’ll return 50 million divine rocks to the clan, and I’ll give the clan leader another 50 million to do as he pleases.”

With that, the commotion in the Linghu clan temporarily subsided.

The Linghu clan’s members, including Duan Ling Tian, waited for three days outside of the Flying Dragon Sect before the entrance examination started. Some of them even began to sit cross-legged to cultivate while they waited. After all, with the three supreme elders around, they could safely focus on their cultivation.

The disciples set up a noise-canceling Formation using their Formation compass so they could concentrate.

Unlike the others, Duan Ling Tian was focused on the doppelganger he had successfully formed recently. Although it did not show itself, he could still sense it.

At this moment….

Someone called out, “Supreme Elder Zheng Xing.”

Duan Ling Tian looked in the direction of the voice and saw a tall and burly young man dressed in fine clothes flying toward them. An inconspicuous old man with an average build followed by his side while more than 100 people flew behind them.

At this time, Duan Ling Tian saw a familiar face among the group of people. With that, he realized the group of people was from the Murong clan. After all, the familiar face he saw belonged to Hou Qing Ning.

As soon as Duan Ling Tian saw Hou Qing Ning, he heard Hou Qing Ning’s voice. “Duan Ling Tian.”
