Chapter 3434 - The Mighty Feng Qing Yang

Bang!

Yang Yun Xiao tried to block Feng Qing Yang's sword attack in a haste. However, it was not enough to stop the sword that was boosted by the mustard energy from the law of earth. The sword struck him, sending him flying into the sky. He spat out a mouthful of blood, severely injured. His ruddy complexion was gone; his face was as pale as a sheet of paper.

"Heavenly Emperor Yang Yun Xiao, you've not improved at all even after so many years have passed," Feng Qing Yang said as he narrowed his eyes. A faint smile could be seen on his face as though he was speaking to an old acquaintance instead of someone he had just injured.

Despite the indignant expression on Yang Yun Xiao, he could not hide the fear in his eyes. "H-heavenly Emperor Feng Qing Yang, you've… you've attained godhood?!"

Despite the rumors swirling around in all of the 81 Devata Realms, there was no confirmation that Feng Qing Yang had truly attained godhood. However, Yang Yun Xiao, who had just suffered a blow from Feng Qing Yang's attack that was boosted by the law of earth, had sensed a terrifying and deadly energy from the earlier attack. The energy was something that surpassed the Celestial Origin Energy; it was the Divine Energy.

After a Ten Directions Celestial Emperor attained godhood, his Celestial Origin Energy would change into a superior energy called the Divine Energy, also known as the force of gods.

Feng Qing Yang nodded in response.

Yang Yun Xiao smiled bitterly. He was not angry that Feng Qing Yang had injured him. After all, he knew it would be easy for Feng Qing Yang to kill him if that was Feng Qing Yang's intention. "In the past, we were evenly matched when the law of destruction was the only law you're skilled with. Now that you've attained godhood, just the law of earth is enough for you to defeat me. Indeed, the difference between a god and a celestial is like heaven and earth…"

How could Yang Yun Xiao possess the courage to be angry when faced with a god who could crush him like an ant? Although he was a Heavenly Emperor of a Devata Realm, Feng Qing Yang could kill him with just a thought.

At this moment, Duan Ling Tian, who was standing next to Feng Qing Yang, finally regained his senses. His master was really a badas*!

Feng Qing Yang did not even bother greeting Yang Yun Xiao and instantly attacked Yang Yun Xiao. The latter did not even dare to show his dissatisfaction and could only grin and bear it. With this and the fact that Situ Zhuqing, the Heavenly Emperor of the Luo River Heaven, fled as soon as she realized she had offended Feng Qing Yang, one could further see how fearsome Feng Qing Yang was.

'I can be like this as well if I become a god…' Duan Ling Tian yearned to become a god at this moment. His heart sank as he continued to think to himself, 'Even if I attain godhood after 1,000 years, it'll still be difficult for me to rescue Ke'er in the Divine Offering Realm. It'll be different if I can attain godhood earlier and have time to improve my strength as a god…'

At this time, Feng Qing Yang looked at Yang Yun Xiao and said, "Heavenly Emperor Yang Yun Xiao, you should know that I'm not here to reminisce about the good old times with you. Don't you think you should give me a satisfactory explanation regarding that matter with my disciple?"

How could Yang Yun Xiao not know the purpose of Feng Qing Yang's visit when he saw Feng Qing Yang and Duan Ling Tian together? However, it was out of his expectations that Feng Qing Yang would attack as soon as he appeared. With that attack, Feng Qing Yang had made his stance very clear.

Yang Yun Xiao sighed in relief inwardly. Fortunately, he told his second disciple, Kong Fen, the Almighty Wind Celestial Emperor, to leave back then. Otherwise, he would not have a choice but to hand Kong Fen to Feng Qing Yang today.

"What matter are you referring to?" Yang Yun Xiao feigned ignorance. It would be foolish if he openly acknowledged that he had intentionally let his second disciple go.

"Only 200 years have passed, but it seems like Heavenly Emperor Yang Yun Xiao's memory has deteriorated…" Feng Qing Yang sneered at Yang Yun Xiao.

Yang Yun Xiao feigned confusion for a moment before he cried out in surprise, "Heavenly Emperor Feng Qing Yang, are you referring to that matter from 200 years ago when my second disciple, Kong Fen, and his son tried to kill Junior Nephew Duan?!" Without waiting for Feng Qing Yang's reply, he continued to say, "It's all the fault of my second disciple's useless son. I've already killed him in front of Junior Nephew Duan… As for my second disciple, I've punished him rather severely since he was tricked by his son into being an accomplice."

"Punished him rather severely?" Duan Ling Tian was stunned by these shameless words. He said with a sneer, "Heavenly Emperor Yang Yun Xiao, you only confined your second disciple for a few hundred years. How's it that you punished him rather severely? Do you treat my master and me as fools?"

"Junior Nephew Duan," Yang Yun Xiao said apologetically, "You didn't object to this punishment back then so I didn't know you're dissatisfied. You should've spoken up back then if you have objections. If you'd told me you wanted him dead, I would've killed him back then!"

"Is that so?" Duan Ling Tian scoffed.

"Do you not believe me, Junior Nephew Duan?" Yang Yun Xiao shook his head and said, "I'll summon my second disciple, Kong Fen, here at once. If Junior Nephew Duan wants him dead, I'll kill him personally. If you prefer to kill him with your own hands, I'll hold onto him for you."

Feng Qing Yang watched in slight confusion as Duan Ling Tian scoffed. "If I'm not mistaken, your second disciple should've already left the Heavenly Palace of the Floating Heaven a long time ago. Are you putting on a show for my master? You're really cunning, Heavenly Emperor Yang Yun Xiao."

Even the Heavenly Emperor of the Luo River Heaven, Situ Zhu Qing, was terrified of Feng Qing Yang and fled the Luo River Heaven. How would Yang Yun Xiao's disciple, an ordinary titled Celestial Emperor, dare to stay in the Heavenly Palace of the Floating Heaven?

In the past, Elder Huo and Duan Ling Tian clearly knew that Yang Yun Xiao wanted to protect his second disciple. How could Duan Ling Tian not know that Yang Yun Xiao probably asked his second disciple to leave the Heavenly Palace of the Floating Heaven as well?

A hint of panic flashed in the depths of Yang Yun Xiao's eyes when he heard Duan Ling Tian's words. He laughed nervously before he said, "Junior Nephew Duan, how could you think so badly of me?"

At this moment, Feng Qing Yang interjected in an icy voice, "Yang Yun Xiao, I'll wait for you and your second disciple in the Heavenly Palace of the Solitary Destructive Heaven. You have one month to show up. Otherwise, you can wait for your death here or you can bring your people and run away…"

Yang Yun Xiao's expression changed drastically.

Feng Qing Yang and Duan Ling Tian no longer bothered with Yang Yun Xiao and left him standing there with a complex expression on his face.

'There's no doubt that Feng Qing Yang has become a god. I didn't expect him to care about his disciple to this extent. It seems like I have to bring Kong Fen to him. Fortunately, I didn't tell Kong Feng that Feng Qing Yang will kill him. Otherwise, it'd be impossible for me to find Kong Fen…'

…

Duan Ling Tian assumed it would be difficult for him to catch Kong Fen since Kong Feng had fled the Heavenly Palace of the Floating Island. He did not expect Feng Qing Yang would directly threaten to kill Yang Yun Xiao and demand Yang Yun Xiao to bring Kong Fen to the Heavenly Palace of the Solitary Destruction within the month. Naturally, there was a chance that Yang Yun Xiao would flee along with his disciple as well.

"Master, do you think he'll choose to flee?" Duan Ling Tian asked.

In Duan Ling Tian's opinion, since Yang Yun Xiao was willing to offend him for his second disciple's sake 200 years ago, it was clear Kong Fen held weight in Yang Yun Xiao's heart. Therefore, it was not entirely impossible for Yang Yun Xiao to flee.

"Impossible." Feng Qing Yang shook his head. "Although I'm not overly familiar with Yang Yun Xiao, based on our few interactions in the past, I can tell he's more concerned about his status than his disciples. He'll never abandon his position as the Heavenly Emperor of the Floating Heaven."

Before bringing Duan Ling Tian away from the Floating Heaven, Feng Qing Yang said. "Let's return to the Heavenly Palace of the Solitary Destructive Heaven and wait for him there."

A hint of anticipation shone in Duan Ling Tian's eyes when he heard Feng Qing Yang's words. He could not wait for the day Yang Yun Xiao would bring Kong Fen to the Heavenly Palace of the Solitary Destructive Heaven.

…

Meanwhile, at the Heavenly Palace of the Floating Heaven.

Yang Yun Xiao did not waste time and sent a message to Kong Fen, the Almighty Wind Celestial Emperor, who had left the Heavenly Palace of the Floating Heaven.

"Kong Fen, I just returned from the Heavenly Palace of the Solitary Destructive Heaven… The Heavenly Emperor of the Solitary Destructive Heaven, Feng Qing Yang, is satisfied that I killed your son and has decided to let the matter go. You can return now."

Yang Yun Xiao knew he could tell his disciple the truth. Otherwise, his disciple would never return to the Heavenly Palace of the Floating Heaven.

After Kong Fen left the Heavenly Palace of the Floating Heaven, he would wander near the Heavenly Palace of the Solitary Destructive Heaven every so often in hopes of catching Duan Ling Tian alone. Alas, he was not presented with such a chance even after 200 years.

Due to the futility of his actions, Kong Feng spent the last 100 years in the Floating Heaven.

"I can return now?" Kong Fen's eyes lit up the moment he received the message from his master.
