Chapter 3319: Duan Ling Tian’s Objective

Duan Ling Tian could still vividly remember the day he met Ke’er. That once pitiful had grown so much and even gave birth to an adorable daughter for him. In just a blink of an eye, he had been separated from his wife and his daughter, Duan Si Ling, for more than 200 years.

‘Ke’er, Si Ling... Once the passage between the Divine Offering Land and the Devata Realms is open, I’ll come and look for both of you!’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself as his eyes shone with determination.

“Brother Ling Tian.” Huan’er could sense Duan Ling Tian’s emotions were in turmoil so she hugged him and consoled him. “Sister Ke’er and the others will be fine...”

Huan’er whose parents were being imprisoned could naturally empathize with Duan Ling Tian.

Duan Ling Tian nodded and forced a smile on his face. “Huan’er, after leaving Fresh Breeze Town, let’s go to Aurora City... That’s the first place I went after leaving Fresh Breeze Town.”

The main Li Clan was also located in Aurora City. The clan in Fresh Breeze Town was just a branch of the clan.

“Okay.” Huan’er nodded obediently. A hint of worry could be seen in her eyes at this moment. Hearing Duan Ling Tian talk about his family and friends reminded her of her parents who were imprisoned in the Heavenly Pool Palace’s Thousands Chains Prison. However, she quickly concealed her feelings. She did not want Duan Ling Tian to worry about her.

However, Huan’er’s actions did not escape Duan Ling Tian’s notice. He knew she was trying to be strong in front of him so he did not bring it up. Moreover, he already had a plan to save her parents. In fact, even this trip to the Saint Province Realm was one of the necessary steps in his plan to save her parents.

...

When Duan Ling Tian arrived in Aurora City, he discovered the changes here were even bigger than that of Fresh Breeze Town. Not only did it double its size, but many areas were well developed now. Soon enough, he saw another of his statues in a spacious square in the heart of Aurora City.

Huan’er said with a smile, “Brother Ling Tian... It seems that you’re well respected in your hometown.”

“I didn’t expect this as well.” Duan Ling Tian did not have many friends in Fresh Breeze Town compared to Aurora City. However, perhaps for a handful of them, the rest were probably long gone.

Duan Ling Tian felt his heart ache again. He said, “Huan’er, I met my wife Li Fri in Aurora City.”

Li Fei, along with their son, Duan Nian Tian, was also in the Divine Offering Land, waiting for him to rescue them.

“Back then...” As he stood in front of the Li Clan’s main entrance, his thoughts wandered to the time he first met Li Fei.

After he finished recounting his story, he took a deep breath to gather his thoughts before he walked away.

Instead of going to the Crimson Sky Kingdom after leaving Aurora City, he made his way to Iron Blood City instead.

Duan Ling Tian assumed the Genius Camp of the past might not exist now that 200 years had passed. Perhaps, the Iron Army was still around.

Unbeknownst to him, both were still around. In fact, a lot of importance was placed on the Genius Camp now because of him. It was all because of him that the Crimson Sky Kingdom’s Imperial Family strongly supported the Iron Blood Army’s Genius Camps.

Over the past 200 years, many outstanding talents had come from the Iron Blood Army’s Genius Camp. However, none of them could compare to Duan Ling Tian.

“Huan’er... The Iron Blood Army’s Genius Camp is where I first met Su Li,” Duan Ling Tian said with a smile, “You’ve met him before. He’s the same Su Li in the Jade Emperor Heaven’s Thousand Tribulations Sword Sect...”

“Brother Ling Tian, I didn’t know you met him at such a young age. No wonder both of you have such a strong bond,” Huan’er said, slightly surprised.

“Huan’er, this is the Crimson Sky Kingdom’s capital. That’s the Paladin Academy... Su Li and I were students once. It was during our time in the academy that I realized Su Li’s a good friend.”

Duan Ling Tian told Huan’er about the time Su Li decided to leave the Paladin Academy instead of letting the Su Clan harm him. It was what cemented their friendship.

After leaving the Paladin Academy, Duan Ling Tian led Huan’er to the Duan Clan. Both the Duan Clan and the Li Clan still existed after 200 years. Both clans seemed to be more powerful than before. There were many clans from the past that had ceased to exist, with new clans rising to take their places.

“This is the Duan Clan... My father Duan Ru Feng is from the Duan Clan.”

Following that, the duo left the Crimson Sky Kingdom for the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom. Their first stop was the sect he joined: the Seven Star Sword Sect.

Similarly, Duan Ling Tian had a lot of memories in the Seven Star Sword Sect.

...

In just a blink of an eye, Duan Ling Tian and Huan’er had been traveling around the Saint Province for a month now. During that time, he would reminisce and recount his experience to Huan’er.

At this moment, Duan Ling Tian looked at Huan’er solemnly and asked, “Huan’er, do you know why I brought you here?”

Huan’er shook her head.

“Huan’er, although I tried to suppress my feelings, it had the opposite effect. Sometimes the more you try to suppress the feelings, the stronger they become,” Duan Ling Tian took a deep breath as he said, “All this while, I have no intention of starting another relationship because of my wives, Ke’er and Li Fei, and also Tian Wu. Moreover, they were all captured and brought to the Divine Offering Land. Even if none of that happened, I still wouldn’t start a relationship easily. They’re my greatest blessing, and I don’t want them to have to share my love with another person again. However, I began to change my mind when I met you.”

He paused for a moment before he continued to say, “All men would be captivated by your beauty, and I’m no different. However, at that time, I had too much on my mind. As I got to know you, my heart was moved, but I tried to hide it. In fact, I’ve always told myself to treat you like my younger sister. I’ve fallen for you, but recently, when I heard that Lei Jun is interested in you after we returned from the Title Temple, I was incredibly furious. It was at that time that I further realized your importance in my heart.”

After he finished speaking, he shifted his gaze back to Huan’er. He was stunned. “Silly girl... Why are you crying?” He quickly reached out to wipe her tears away as he said, “It’s okay, Huan’er. Don’t cry.”

At this moment, Huan’er reached out and hugged Duan Ling Tian tightly as though she would never let go. “Brother Ling Tian, do you know how long I’ve been waiting for this moment? I’m only crying because I’m really happy... I...” She was so happy that she had a difficult time articulating her thoughts.

“Huan’er,” Duan Ling Tian said, “I want to tell you that your parents are also my parents now. I’ll definitely save them!”

“Alright.”

Following that, Duan Ling Tian said, “I hope you’ll stay in the Saint Province Realm in the meantime. I’ll definitely come back for you.”

Upon hearing these words, Huan’er’s expression changed drastically. “No, I want to go with you! I won’t allow you to risk your life on your own!”

Realization finally dawned on Huan’er at this moment. As it turned out, Duan Ling Tian planned to rescue her parents on his own.

“Huan’er, I’ve made up my mind,” Duan Ling Tian said solemnly, “Listen to me, alright?”

This time, Huan’er was not so easily convinced.

Duan Ling Tian continued to say, “Huan’er, don’t worry. I’m confident that I’ll succeed. I promise I won’t act rashly. I told you about the Seven Absolute Sect previously... Senior Feng Qing Yang whose inheritance I received is the Heavenly Emperor of the Solitary Destructive Heaven. I’m planning to seek his help. With his help, it’d be much easier to save your parents.”

Although Duan Ling Tian was not lying about his plan, he was not certain if Feng Qing Yang would be willing to help him. However, to reassure Huan’er, he could only put on a confident front.

“The Heavenly Emperor of the Solitary Destructive Heaven?” Huan’er was briefly stunned by Duan Ling Tian’s words. When she regained her senses, she said, “If that’s the case, why do I need to stay in the mundane realm? I can follow you to the Solitary Destructive Heaven to meet Senior Feng Qing Yang!”

Upon seeing Huan’er being so stubborn, Duan Ling Tian grew impatient. He said in a deep voice, “Huan’er, if you don’t listen to me, I won’t see you again after rescuing your parents.”

He knew these words were hurtful, and he would not say such words unless it was necessary. However, in order to make Huan’er listen, he could only say these words.
