Chapter 2034 - First Time in the Enforcement Hall

Chapter 2034: First Time in the Enforcement Hall

It was a day outside, but ten days had already gone by in the fourth level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda. In these ten days, Duan Ling Tian had calmed down and diligently cultivated. Although he did not make another breakthrough in his cultivation base, it had completely stabilized.

“I just need another two more weeks to break through to the Intermediate Exemplary Saint Stage!” Inside the fourth level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, Duan Ling Tian who was sitting cross-legged in the air suddenly opened his eyes. His eyes were as bright as stars. When Duan Ling Tian mentioned two weeks, he meant the time in the outside world. Two weeks outside would be equivalent to five months in the fourth level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda.

With his blue Innate Spiritual Root and the fourth level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, Duan Ling Tian’s current cultivation speed was similar to those geniuses who possessed indigo Innate Spiritual Roots.

‘It’s time for me to head to the Enforcement Hall!’ Duan Ling Tian left the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda and the mansion for the Saint Island when he thought of this.

Duan Ling Tian knew the Enforcement Hall was located in the Saint Island. He made his way north and soon arrived in the area where the Enforcement Hall was located.

“You! Are you a true disciple who came to serve in the Enforcement Hall?” When Duan Ling Tian entered the area where the Enforcement Hall was located, a voice rang in the sky.

After that, a figure descended from the sky and appeared before Duan Ling Tian in just a blink of an eye.

Duan Ling Tian studied the person before him.

This person was a middle-aged man wearing the exclusive uniform of a Bronze Flame Elder. Unlike the exclusive uniforms for ordinary Saint Land’s Bronze Flame Elders, the uniform he was wearing had the word ‘Enforcement’ embroidered on the front of his robe. Based on this, one could tell he was an Enforcement Hall’s elder!

“Yes.” Duan Ling Tian nodded in response to the Enforcement Hall’s elder query.

“Do you have the certificate?” The Enforcement Hall’s elder who appeared in front of Duan Ling Tian asked Duan Ling Tian without beating around the bush. True disciples who had accepted the assignment and came to serve in the Enforcement Hall were given a certificate by the Central Square’s Fire Remuneration Palace.

“Yes.” Duan Ling Tian nodded and subsequently took out the certificate he obtained from the Fire Remuneration Palace yesterday. He handed it over to the Enforcement Hall’s elder standing before him.

The Enforcement Hall’s elder took the certificate from him and looked at it. His eyes suddenly widened as various expressions flitted across his face as though he had seen something shocking.

The Enforcement Hall’s elder gasped and when he looked at Duan Ling Tian, a hint of respect could be seen in his eyes. “Y-You’re Duan Ling Tian?”

Although he was a Saint Land’s Bronze Flame Elder, an Enforcement Hall’s elder no less, his strength was only on par with Dong Lin. He could not even compare to Wen Yan who was ranked ninth on the True Ranking.

Faced with the person who had easily defeated Wen Yan and forced that good-for-nothing kid, Dong Lin, to apologize on his own initiative, apart from shock, there was a feeling of respect in his heart!

The other person might be younger than him, but he was much stronger. For this reason, he did not dare to act like a senior since this was a world where the strong ones were revered. It was not a world that placed great importance on seniority.

“Yes.” Duan Ling Tian nodded again in response to the Enforcement Hall’s elder standing before him.

“The exchanging of duty between the previous group and the current group on duty in the Enforcement Hall will take place in the Main Hall. Let me bring you there.” As the Enforcement Hall’s elder handed the certificate back to Duan Ling Tian, he took the initiative to lead him to the Main Hall.

“Won’t this be inconvenient for you? It would suffice if you just point me in the right direction, Elder,” Duan Ling Tian said politely.

Duan Ling Tian had always been a person who repaid kindness and animosity in tenfold. He was extremely polite to this Enforcement Hall’s elder who had been polite to him. Although his strength, coupled with the Jasper Celestial Sword, was far superior to the elder, he did not look down on him.

“It’s not inconvenient at all! It’s an honor being able to help a prodigy like you,” the Enforcement Hall’s elder said as he shook his head.

Seeing how determined the Enforcement Hall’s elder was, Duan Ling Tian no longer rejected him and followed him to the Main Hall.

“How should I address you, Elder?” Duan Ling Tian asked during the journey.

“My name’s Peng Bin,” the Enforcement Hall’s elder instantly replied to Duan Ling Tian before he anxiously said, “You don’t have to address me as Elder. You can just call me by my name.”

“Elder Peng Bin, you’re a Fire Worship Sect’s elder, and I’m a Fire Worship Sect’s disciple. It’s natural for me to address you as Elder. There’s no need for you to think too much into it,” Duan Ling Tian said as he shook his head when he saw how anxious Peng Bin was.

Duan Ling Tian had been in the Fire Worship Sect for quite a while. It was the first time he had met an elder like Peng Bin who treated him with so much respect. It even made him anxious just because he had addressed him as ‘Elder’.

Duan Ling Tian was unaware that, currently, his name was a synonym for the words ‘Don’t provoke’ among the Bronze Flame Elders in the Fire Worship Sect. Apart from his strength, the Bronze Flame Elders dreaded his courage as well.

After all, not everybody had the courage to publicly humiliate the direct disciple of a Golden Flame Elder and not everybody had the courage to force the son of the Enforcement Hall’s Vice Hall Master to take the initiative to apologize.

Although Duan Ling Tian was not the only one who was stronger than Wen Yan and Dong Lin, he was the only one who dared to treat Wen Yan and Dong Lin in such a way.

For this reason, in the eyes of the Bronze Flame Elders in the Fire Worship Sect, Duan Ling Tian was a variant among the true disciples and should not be provoked.

Due to this reason, Peng Bin was courteous and afraid when faced with Duan Ling Tian.

“Elder Peng Bin, can you give me a simple introduction about the Enforcement Hall?” Duan Ling Tian asked.

“Of course.” Peng Bin instantly nodded before he explained to Duan Ling Tian, “Our Enforcement Hall is separated into three halls that have their own functions. The three halls are the Main Hall, the Punishment Hall, and the Prison Hall. The Main Hall…”

Duan Ling Tian gained a certain understanding of the Enforcement Hall through Peng Bin’s explanation.

The Enforcement Hall was separated into three halls. The Main Hall, the Punishment Hall, and the Prison Hall.

He also learned that Ke’er and their daughter were imprisoned in the Prison Hall!

“Elder Peng Bin, as an important place of the Enforcement Hall, the people guarding the Prison Hall should be Silver Flame Elders, right?” Duan Ling Tian asked, seemingly unconcerned.

Currently, he wanted to gain a deeper understanding of the Prison Hall. If by some chance, only Bronze Flame Elders were guarding the place, he might stand a chance in rescuing Ke’er and their daughter. Naturally, he knew how unrealistic it was.

There were so many Silver Flame Elders in the Enforcement Hall, how could they possibly let Bronze Flame Elders guard the Prison Hall that was incredibly important in the Enforcement Hall?

“Yes.” Peng Bin instantly nodded when he heard Duan Ling Tian’s words. “Usually, there are three Silver Flame Elders guarding the Prison Hall. You’ll have to receive all three’s permission if you want to enter the Prison Hall. Moreover, they have the Communication Dao Talismans in their possessions in case something happens in the Prison Hall so they can instantly inform the Enforcement Hall’s Hall Master and the Vice Hall Masters,” Peng Bin explained.

“In that case, isn’t the Prison Hall impregnable? It’s almost impossible to rescue those who are imprisoned there!” Duan Ling Tian said as he feigned astonishment.

In truth, he was feeling slightly dejected since this meant he would no longer be able to save Ke’er and their daughter before his strength surpassed the Hall Master of the Enforcement Hall.

“Indeed,” Peng Bin said, “With the Hall Master around, it’s almost impossible for anyone to rescue the people imprisoned in the Prison Hall unless they’re as strong as the Guardians in the Fire Worship Sect.”

A hint of respect could be seen in Peng Bin’s eyes when he spoke about the Hall Master of the Enforcement Hall.

To the Enforcement Hall’s elders, the Hall Master of the Enforcement Hall was a person whose position was only inferior to the Sect Leader of the Fire Worship Sect.

In their eyes, even the three great Guardians of the Fire Worship Sect’s positions were not as high as the Hall Master.

When Peng Bin was speaking, he failed to notice Duan Ling Tian’s expression had turned slightly grim. Only when Peng Bin looked at him again did he regain his composure.

As they continued to travel some distance away, Peng Bin said, “The Main Hall of the Enforcement Hall is just right in front.”

In the distance, a huge and long palace that seemed like a divine dragon could be seen. It exuded an oppressive aura.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

The sound of wind whistling caused Duan Ling Tian to regain his senses. He saw two figures flew rapidly past him before they entered Enforcement Hall’s Main Hall.

“They are also true disciples who came to serve here?” Although the two figures moved at a fast speed, Duan Ling Tian could clearly see they were wearing the exclusive uniforms of Saint Land true disciples.

“I need to resume patrolling now. I’ll just send you till here. Let’s meet again in the future if we have time,” Peng Bin said to Duan Ling Tian with a smile before he left.

“Elder Peng Bin, thank you for leading me here. I’ll remember this favor!” Duan Ling Tian expressed his gratitude to Peng Bin.

After Peng Bin left, Duan Ling Tian entered the Enforcement Hall’s Main Hall.

‘I hope Ke’er and our daughter are locked up together with Gan Ru Yan. That way, I might get to see them.’ Duan Ling Tian prayed fervently as he stepped into the Main Hall of the Enforcement Hall.
