To confirm his speculation, Duan Ling Tian even looked for Wanqi Jue, the Golden Seat Elder from the Wanqi clan. As he had suspected, Wanqi Jue, who clearly could not wait to kill him yesterday, was very calm today. Although there was no smile on Wanqi Jue’s face, he was not hostile either.

After that, Duan Ling Tian found Zhen Ping Fan and said, “Elder Zhen, I feel that something is up. Those from the Wanqi clan, Wanqi Jue in particular, are behaving strangely.”

Perhaps, if it were just the members of the Wanqi clan, Duan Ling Tian would not have been so suspicious. After all, they were only humiliated at best and did not suffer a great loss. However, it was highly suspicious for Wanqi Jue, who was directly involved in the matter, to act like nothing happened.

Upon hearing Duan Ling Tian’s words, Zhen Ping Fan said with a smile, “There’s nothing wrong. They’ve likely vented their anger yesterday. Let alone Wanqi Jue, even Wanqi Hong has lived for almost 10,000 years. They’re aware of the saying, ‘There’s no use crying over spilled milk’. Even if they shout, curse, and feel unwilling, they kn ore executing the plan, Zhen Ping Fan had told him about the time Wanqi Jue killed a prodigy from the Pure Yang Sect’s Cloud Peak faction in a sparring session. Wanqi Jue could have easily spared his opponent’s life, but he did not. The prodigy who died was Zhen Ping Fan’s senior brother. If he were still alive, he would be a rudimentary Emperor of Gods at least.

Naturally, Duan Ling Tian also knew that Zhen Ping Fan told him about the matter to relieve him of any mental burden regarding tricking Wanqi Jue.

After a few moments, Duan Ling Tian sent another message to Zhen Ping Fan.

“Elder Zhen, why don’t we inform the sect so they can send an Ascension Elders to escort us back to the sect? Perhaps, Ascension Elder Zhen can come if it’s convenient?”

Although Duan Ling Tian thought that they should be fine, it was better to be safe than sorry. Moreover, he thought his suggestion was not very troublesome as well.

Upon hearing Duan Ling Tian’s Voice Transmission, Zhen Ping Fan said with a smile, “You’re really very cautious. Well, my father is already here. He’s waiting for us outside of the Seven Kills Valley’s estate. He’ll join us as soon as we leave.”

Duan Ling Tian did not expect this at all. He was both surprised and relieved. “Elder Zhen Yun Feng is here? Why didn’t he come into the Seven Kills Valley instead of waiting outside?”

“He doesn’t want to exchange small talks with the Seven Kills Valley,” Zhen Ping Fan said somewhat helplessly.

Duan Ling Tian asked, “Since he’s here, we don’t need to wait for the Wanqi clan to leave before leaving, right? There’s no need to fear an ambush from the Wanqi clan, after all.”

“Don’t worry. We won’t have to wait for long anyway,” Zhen Ping Fan said, “This is the suggestion of Ye Tong and the others. My father arrived late last night, and I’ve yet to inform them about it. I think I’ll keep it that way. They’ll be pleasantly surprised when they see my father later.”

Zhen Ping Fan’s words completely alleviated Duan Ling Tian’s worries. With Zhen Yun Feng around, there was no need to worry about anything. After all, Zhen Yun Feng was much stronger than Wanqi Jue even when Wanqi Jue was in possession of his prominent divine artifact with an incomplete artifact soul, let alone now that Wanqi Jue had lost his weapon.

…

The Wanqi clan left the next morning in a hurry.

Two hours after the Wanqi clan left, Duan Ling Tian received a message from Zhen Ping Fan.

“It’s been two hours since the Wanqi clan left. We should leave now.”

Duan Ling Tian left the courtyard as soon as he received the message. He saw that many members of the Pure Yang Sect had already begun to gather as well.

At this time, Ye Tong, the Hidden Sword faction’s Nirvanic Elder, suggested, “Junior brother, why don’t we ask an intermediate Emperor of Gods from the Seven Kills Valley to accompany us to the entrance? I’m worried the Wanqi clan might be waiting to ambush us near the entrance. Moreover, we’d still be in the range of the Seven Kills Valley’s Guarding Formation so we can’t use our flying ship yet.”

Zhen Ping Fan shook his head. Seeing how worried Ye Tong was, he said with a smile, “There’s no need for that. My father is already here. He’ll be meeting us at the entrance, and he’ll be escorting us back to the Pure Yang Sect.”

Everyone was pleasantly surprised and visibly relieved upon hearing Zhen Ping Fan’s words.

Ye Tong smiled brightly. “Since junior uncle is here, there’s naturally no need for us to seek protection from the Seven Kills Valley.” Then, he looked at Zhen Ping Fan with a helpless expression as he said, “Junior brother, you should’ve told me about this earlier. I’ve been worrying about this matter.”

The elders from the other factions in the Pure Yang Sect also smiled with helpless expressions on their faces. Indeed, if they had known the Ascension Elder from the Cloud Peak faction was here, they would not have worried at all.

“Alright, let’s go.”

Zhen Ping Fan flew at the lead as Duan Ling Tian and the others followed from behind, leaving the Seven Kills Valley’s estate. As soon as they left the estate, they saw Zhen Yun Feng. Everyone quickly greeted him.

Following that, those that came on different flying ships all boarded Zhen Ping Fan’s flying ship as well. Although it was a little crowded, no one complained. After all, this concerned their safety. Who knew if their return trip would be a smooth and peaceful one?
