Chapter 3736 - Supreme Elder Feng and Supreme Elder Lei

A commotion broke out in the entire Hidden Fog Sect as soon as the two furious cries resounded through the entire sect estate. Except for those who were in closed-door cultivation, everyone heard the furious cries. "Xiao'er?"

"Xiong Feng? Is it Shangguan Xiong Feng?"

Those who did not receive the news were confused. After asking around, they began to rush toward the core disciples' cultivation ground. Everyone, regardless if they were elders or disciples, made their way there.

Even Wu Feng Yin, the second elder of the Hidden Fog Sect, was making his way to the core disciples' cultivation ground.

'What happened? Those were Supreme Elder Lei and Supreme Elder Feng's voices. Something must have happened to Long Xiao and Shangguan Xiong Feng!'

Wu Feng Yin had been delighted when he previously heard about Long Xiao and Shangguan Xiong Feng's intention to kill Duan Ling Tian. Similar to everyone else, he felt Duan Ling Tian would surely die once he was found. After all, this would save him the trouble of having to kill Duan Ling Tian himself. He wanted to kill Duan Ling Tian not only to avenge his eldest disciple, Tu Feng, but also because he was worried Duan Ling Tian would be a threat to him once Duan Ling Tian grew stronger. If he did not take the initiative to kill Duan Ling Tian, he might not have the chance in the future.

Previously, when Wu Feng Yin received the news that Long Xiao had gone to King Descending City to look for Duan Ling Tian, he had also gone to King Descending City, hoping to find and kill Duan Ling Tian. Alas, both he and Long Xiao returned without success.

When Wu Feng Yin heard that Duan Ling Tian had returned to the Hidden Fog Sect today, he was waiting to receive good news. He did not expect to hear the two supreme elders' furious cries instead. He could hear the sorrow in their cries as well so he deduced that something must have happened to Shangguan Xiao Feng and Long Xiao.

'What happened exactly? Even if Duan Ling Tian has already become a rudimentary King of Gods, it's impossible for him to kill Shangguan Xiong Feng and Long Xiao. Did someone help him? However, who dares to help him kill Shangguan Xiong Feng and Long Xiao in the Hidden Fog Sect?' Wu Feng Yin speculated inwardly as he flew toward the core disciples' cultivation ground.

Although Wu Feng Yin was confused, he was still delighted. In his opinion, now that something happened to Shangguan Xiong Feng and Long Xiao, Supreme Elder Lei and Supreme Elder Feng definitely would not let Duan Ling Tian get away with it.

'It seems like I won't have dirty my hands killing him,' Wu Feng Yin thought to himself happily. He did not care if Shangguan Xiong Feng and Long Xiao died as long as Duan Ling Tian died. After all, with Duan Ling Tian's potential, he would definitely be a troublesome enemy in the future. From the moment Duan Ling Tian killed his eldest disciple, Tu Feng, they were destined to become enemies.

At the core disciples' cultivation ground.

More and more people rushed over.

Tang Wu Yan, who had just arrived, wanted to rush to Duan Ling Tian's side but was stopped by Tang Chun.

"Girl, don't go over there!"

"Junior granduncle?" Tang Wu Yan looked at Tang Chun in confusion.

"Didn't you hear Supreme Elder Lei and Supreme Elder Feng's voices earlier? Duan Ling Tian killed Shanguan Xiong Feng and Long Xiao," Tang Chun said meaningfully.

"What?! Duan Ling Tian killed Shangguan Xiong Feng and Long Xiao? He's so strong now?!" Tang Wu Yan was shocked. She had heard the two furious cries earlier, but she was so worried about Duan Ling Tian that she did not pay attention to them.

"Junior Brother Duan..." Wu Feng, who had just arrived, looked at Duan Ling Tian from a distance with a complex gaze. Then, he said through Voice Transmission, "Junior Brother Duan, you shouldn't have acted so recklessly and caused such a huge commotion. It'd be enough for you to defeat them before you become Supreme Elder Yun or Supreme Elder Wu's nominal disciple! What are you going to do now? Supreme Elder Lei and Supreme Elder Feng definitely won't let you go for killing those two! I really want to help you, but I'm powerless."

"Senior Brother Wu, thank you for your concern," Duan Ling Tian replied as he looked at Wu Feng from afar. Then, he swept his gaze across the crowd. Among the crowd, there were a few familiar faces.

All of a sudden, an exclamation rang in the air, catching everyone's attention.

"The sect leader is here!"

Then, everyone turned to look at the distance in unison and saw a figure flying over. In just a moment, that person appeared in front of Duan Ling Tian.

At the same time, the crowd bowed and greeted the newcomer.

"Greetings, Sect Leader!"

The newcomer was none other than Qian Yin, the Sect Leader of the Hidden Fog Sect. In fact, Qian Yin was not his real name. As stipulated in the rules of the Hidden Fog Sect, all the sect leaders had to end their names with the word 'Yin'. Perhaps, the predecessors had made this rule on a whim, but no one dared to violate this rule until now.

Qian Yin was a tall and plump middle-aged man. He was dressed like a scholar and had an elegant air about him.

As soon as Duan Ling Tian saw Qian Yin, he thought about Murong Sui Feng. There was something very similar about them. Perhaps, it was their temperaments. The only difference was Qian Yin had a slightly more authoritative air about him. Perhaps, it was due to his position as the Sect Leader of the Hidden Fog Sect.

"Are you Duan Ling Tian?" Qian Yin asked. His expression made it hard to tell if he was happy or unhappy.

"Greetings, Sect Leader," Duan Ling Tian said after he nodded calmly in response to Qian Yin's question.

"Did you kill Shangguan Xiong Feng and Long Xiao?" Qian Yin asked.

Duan Ling Tian nodded. "Yes." "Why?"

"They were trying to kill me? Am I not allowed to defend myself?" Duan Ling Tian asked in return.

Qian Yin's expression changed slightly upon hearing Duan Ling Tian's words. He looked around his surroundings before he said in a deep voice, "Everyone, except for the core disciples and inner elders, should leave now."

re

Since inner elders was also a broad term for inner elders, core elders, guardians, and supreme elders, despite feeling unwilling, the inner aides, inner disciples, outer elders, outer aides, and outer disciples left the core disciples' cultivation ground one after another.

Tang Wu Yan withdrew reluctantly after receiving a warning look from Tang Chun.

In the end, only the core disciples and the inner disciples were left.

"Sect Leader, since you asked everyone to leave, I'm assuming you're not going to follow the rules and insist that I'm guilty?" Duan Ling Tian asked with a chuckle. He had remained calm the entire time as he watched everyone leave.

Qian Yin looked at Duan Ling Tian with a trace of fear in his eyes before he said in a deep voice, "Since you know this, why did you kill them? It's impossible that you didn't know those two were disciples of Supreme Elder Lei and Supreme Elder Feng." Naturally, Qian Yin was not afraid of Duan Ling Tian; he was afraid of Duan Ling Tian's 'background'. After hearing about Duan Ling Tian's strength and prominent divine artifact, he did not doubt Duan Ling Tian's identity anymore. After all, even a lord-rank force only had a few prominent divine artifacts without artifact souls. In the Hidden Fog Sect, only he, the four Supreme Elders, and a few others possessed prominent divine artifacts without artifact souls.

"I'll say this one more time," Duan Ling Tian calmly said, "They wanted to kill me so I only acted in self-defense. I didn't expect them to be so weak that they couldn't even withstand one sword strike."

When Duan Ling Tian finished speaking, his lips curled up into a sneer.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Following that, two figures appeared in front of Duan Ling Tian.

One of them was a thin old man dressed in blue robes. His eyes were piercing, and his robes fluttered from the terrifying energy he released.

The other person was a tall old man dressed in a purple robe that was embroidered with lightning bolts. He had long white hair, but his face was rather youthful. He could pass for a middle-aged man. It seemed like lightning bolts were flashing in his eyes as he looked at Duan Ling Tian. "Greetings, Supreme Elder Feng!" "Greetings, Supreme Elder Lei!"

Everyone, except for Qian Yin, greeted the two old men respectfully as soon as they appeared.

Clearly, these two were the masters of Shangguan Xiong Feng and Long Xiao, two of the Supreme Elders of the Hidden Fog Sect.

In the past, Supreme Elder Lei had sent another one of his disciples to invite Duan Ling Tian to become his disciple, but Duan Ling Tian refused the invitation.

'Duan Ling Tian is dead...' Wu Feng Yin, the second elder of the Hidden Fog Sect, looked at Duan Ling Tian with a malicious smile on his face as his eyes gleamed with anticipation.
