War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

Chapter 2500 Feng Qing Yang, the Heavenly Emperor of Solitary Destructive Heaven?

Regardless if it was Xiong Quan or Gold Thug, they were both Duan Ling Tian’s people. He had never considered them as his slaves. Xiong Quan had been by his side since he was young and had selflessly helped his family. He treated Xiong Quan like family. It was agonizing for him to witness the death of Xiong Quan whom he regarded as his family.

Duan Ling Tian glared at Yun Qing Yan, his fury evident in his eyes. “Yun! Qing! Yan!”

“Enough!” Ke’er screamed loudly. Her voice was cold enough to send chills running up one’s spine. She was, naturally, aware of Xiong Quan’s importance in her man’s heart. She understood how he must have felt. She had spoken up because she was afraid Yun Qing Yan would continue on his killing spree on those people he imprisoned in the spatial Celestial Weapon. In the end, she said listlessly, “Let them go! I’ll return with you.” It was obvious it had taken her a lot to make this decision.

“It seems like you’ve finally regained your senses, cousin sister.” Yun Qing Yan looked at Ke’er with a smug expression and smiled victoriously. After all the efforts he had expanded, this was the result he had wanted.

“Ke’er!” Duan Ling Tian’s face turned even paler, and his eyes were filled with anxiety. Although he did not want his family and friends to be harmed, he did not want Ke’er to leave as well.

“Let them go,” Ke’er said icily as she glared at Yun Qing Yan.

Yun Qing Yan’s prisoners were all important to Duan Ling Tian, and they were just as important to her. They were her relatives and friends. She would never let harm befall them.

Yun Qing Yan replied, “I’ll let them go, but not now.”

“Either you let them go or I won’t come with you!” Ke’er warned.

“Cousin sister,” Yun Qing Yan answered flippantly, “I was planning on imprisoning Duan Ling Tian as well before I use him and the others to force you to come home. Well, I can let Duan Ling Tian go for now, but I won’t let the others go yet. At least, not now.”

“If you dare imprison Brother Tian, I won’t return with you even if I have to die!” Ke’er declared with a determined look on her face.

“My patience has its limits, cousin,” Yun Qing Yan said with a hint of impatience, “I’ll give you one last chance… I won’t harm Duan Ling Tian nor will I imprison him. However, you must return with me! I’ll give you ten breaths to think this over. If you don’t make up your mind by then, I’ll kill everyone in this spatial Celestial Weapon.” His voice was filled with killing intent.

Duan Ling Tian and Ke’er’s expressions changed drastically upon hearing this. If Yun Qing Yan had only wanted to kill Duan Ling Tian or forcibly drag Ke’er away, both of them would not let it happen. After all, if he killed Duan Ling Tian, she would kill herself. If he forced her to leave, Duan Ling Tian would use his life to stop her from leaving. This would inadvertently lead to Duan Ling Tian’s death, and as a result, her death as well.

Yun Qing Yan was in a conundrum since he did not want Ke’er to die, but he had found a way out of it by holding those people hostage. If Ke’er refused to cooperate, he would kill the imprisoned Duan Ru Feng, Li Rou, Feng Tian Wu, Han Xue Nai, and everyone else. He knew Duan Ling Tian and Ke’er would be unwilling to let that happen.

After three breaths, Ke’er turned to look at Duan Ling Tian as her eyes flashed in anguish. “Brother Tian.”

When Duan Ling Tian saw the pain in Ke’er’s eyes and her determined expression, he knew that she had made up her mind. His expression changed greatly, and his eyes were filled with reluctance as he called out, “Ke’er!”

Duan Ling Tian wanted to stop Ke’er from leaving with Yun Qing Yan. However, he would sentence his family and friends to death if he did that. He was in a dilemma. He thought to himself desperately, ‘What should I do? What should I do?!’

On one hand, he would have to abandon his wife, Ke’er, and let her leave. On the other hand, he would have to let his family and friends die.

“Don’t worry, Brother Tian. I’ll be alright…” Naturally, Ke’er was aware of Duan Ling Tian’s dilemma. She tried to comfort him as she said, “I’m only returning home. Even if I don’t leave now, I’ll have to leave sooner or later. I’m just returning home a little earlier than I planned, and I’m returning without you.”

“Ke’er…” Duan Ling Tian’s heart was laden with anxiety even though he had already expected Ke’er’s decision. He felt as though he had been forced to eat his words. He had once said that he would not let her be taken away from him again even if he had to die.

“Yun Qing Yan!” Ke’er could no longer bear to look at Duan Ling Tian’s face that was filled with despair. She turned to look at Yun Qing Yan furiously. “I possess Brother Tian’s Soul Pearl. If anything happens to him, I’ll die along with him!”

Although Yun Qing Yan knew this very well and had no intention of killing Duan Ling Tian for snatching his woman away, he still could not help but be angered by Ke’er’s words. His eyes flashed with malice as he looked at Duan Ling Tian. “He’s nothing but a vermin from a mundane realm. As long as you don’t look for him, I won’t harm him!” The nonchalance in his voice revealed his contempt toward Duan Ling Tian. Before Ke’er replied, he sneered at Duan Ling Tian. “Hey, brat! Didn’t you say you’ll make me regret it if I don’t kill you today? Let me tell you this; I’ve never felt regret in my life!”

After Yun Qing Yan finished speaking, he raised his hand and slapped Duan Ling Tian’s face again, leaving an angry-looking red welt on Duan Ling Tian’s face.

“Yun Qing Yan!” When had Duan Ling Tian ever experienced such humiliation? He glared at Yun Qing Yan as his body trembled in anger.

“Today, I’ll be taking your wife, family, and friends away. I want to see if you can make me feel regret.” Yun Qing Yan grinned when he saw his words had caused Duan Ling Tian’s expression to turn unsightly. He seemed to have recalled something before he said, “By the way, I believe it’s best for me to tell you this. Your master, Feng Qing Yang, the person who left you his legacy, is now the Heavenly Emperor of one of the 81 Devata Realms, the Solitary Destructive Heaven. Due to his immense power, he’s considered as one of the strongest people in the Devata Realms.”

Upon hearing this, Duan Ling Tian who was enraged was taken aback. Feng Qing Yang was the Heavenly Emperor of Solitary Destructive Heaven? His knowledge of Feng Qing Yang was limited to whatever he had discovered in the Saint Province Realm.

100,000 years ago, Sword Saint Feng Qing Yang was the Sect Leader of the Seven Absolutes Sect and the successor of the First Absolute, the Fog Rain Progeny. When he was an Eminent Celestial, he possessed strength to kill Eight Tribulation Bodiless Celestials and was comparable to Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestials! Later on, he ascended to a Devata Realm. Based on his achievements in the Saint Province Realm, there was no doubt he would be extraordinary even in a Devata Realm.

At least, that was what Duan Ling Tian believed. However, he truly did not expect Feng Qing Yang had become the Heavenly Emperor of Solitary Destructive Heaven! Although Solitary Destructive Heaven was only one of the 81 Devata Realms, to be able to become a Heavenly Emperor in one of the Devata Realms was a testament to Feng Qing Yang’s strength. He found it hard to accept that Feng Qing Yang had become the Heavenly Emperor of Solitary Destructive Heaven in just 100,000 years.

At this moment, Duan Ling Tian who was reeling from the shock of this revelation seemed to have forgotten the current situation. Yun Qing Yan’s words were too shocking after all. When he calmed down, he asked skeptically, “Why are you telling me this?”

Inwardly, Duan Ling Tian could not help but feel nervous. Yun Qing Yan obviously knew that Feng Qing Yang was his master, and yet, Yun Qing Yang was bold enough to treat him in this manner. Something was amiss. Was it possible that Yun Qing Yan was not afraid of Feng Qing Yang?

Yun Qing Yan said flippantly, “I’m telling you this to tell you that Feng Qing Yang is nothing to me. Moreover, I’ve also sent my men after him. Naturally, the Solitary Destructive Heaven no longer has a Heavenly Emperor!”
