War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

By putting himself into Duan Ling Tian's shoes, Feng Qing Yang could understand how Duan Ling Tian felt. Back then, he thought that if even someone like him faced such danger that time, he could only imagine how dangerous it had been for Duan Ling Tian. For that reason, he was not optimistic about Duan Ling Tian's survival at that time. One of the reasons he had sent his men to look for Duan Ling Tian in the mundane realm instead of personally going to the mundane realm himself was due to the fact that he thought Duan Ling Tian had died. He only wanted his men to confirm his thoughts.

Although his men failed to find Duan Ling Tian, they also did not hear any news about Duan Ling Tian's death. Therefore, he began to feel hopeful again. However, deep down inside, he thought it was just his wishful thinking. After all, the person Duan Ling Tian had offended was someone from a Realm God. Let alone a cultivator from the mundane realm, even celestials were no match for those from the Realms of Gods. If Duan Ling Tian was like an ant to celestials from Devata Realms, what about those from the Realms of Gods?

Feng Qing Yang was also greatly infuriated after hearing about what Duan Ling Tian had gone through. He did not expect there were those who would go so far and act so viciously…

"The Luo River Heaven?" Duan Ling Tian, who had grown emotional upon hearing Feng Qing Yang's question, perked up when he heard Feng Qing Yang's following words. Although it was not his first time talking out the past, he was no less upset about it now. Humans were not emotionless like trees after all. Moreover, the one who was trapped in the Divine Offering Land was his wife, Ke'er. Nevertheless, Feng Qing Yang's words managed to divert his attention.

"That's right." Feng Qing Yang nodded.

Although Feng Qing's expression was one of indifference, Duan Ling Tian could see the coldness flashing in Feng Qing Yang's eyes. The look in Feng Qing Yang's eyes was fierce and unyielding like a sword; it was rather mesmerizing. When he regained his senses, he said apologetically, "Master, what happened at the Saint Province Realm is my fault… I didn't know the Heavenly Emperor of the Luo River Heaven would vent her anger on the Saint Province Realm when she couldn't find me, the person who killed her daughter."

Duan Ling Tian still felt guilty over what happened in the Saint Province Realm. After all, he was the one who destroyed the soul of Feng Jian Xue, the daughter of Situ Zhuqing, the Heavenly Emperor of the Luo River Heaven, to save Mu Yi Yi, and thus, incurring her wrath.

"I heard about what happened; it's not your fault," Feng Qing Yang said as he shook his head, "If I were you, I would do the same. How can the body of a member of our Seven Absolute Sect be taken by another person?" His eyes shone with killing intent when he finished speaking. It was as though he could devour someone whole.

"Situ Zhuqing wanted to massacre all the inhabitants in a mundane realm for her own selfish desires; she did not even spare the beasts. She truly thinks there are no consequences…" Feng Qing Yang said frostily, "It's unfortunate she picked the wrong mundane realm. Is the mundane realm where I, Feng Qing Yang, came from a place where she could do as she pleases?"

…

'Is this the speed of a god?' Duan Ling Tian was still in awe when he arrived at the Luo River Heaven. He was stunned by Feng Qing Yang's speed when Feng Qing Yang brought him to the transportation site in the Heavenly Palace of the Solitary Destructive Heaven. Although he was aware there was a difference in strength between a god and a celestial that was like the difference between heaven and earth, witnessing it with his own eyes was completely different. Moreover, this was just his master's law of earth's clone. The law of earth could be said to be the slowest among all the laws, but he was certain that even the fastest titled Celestial Emperor was slower than his master.

After Feng Qing Yang removed his energy from Duan Ling Tian, he asked, "I know the Luo River Sect is the Heavenly Palace of the Luo River Heaven, but I've never been there. Do you know the way there?"

The first and only time Duan Ling Tian went to the Luo River Sect was to look for Mu Yi Yi. At that time, he had been excited to have found another one of his friends. Unfortunately, he had arrived too late. Even after he had rescued her, she was in a bad shape. The old Mu Yi Yi would never return.

"If it weren't for me, Junior Sister Mu Yi Yi wouldn't be in such a state," Duan Ling Tian sighed when his thoughts wandered to Mu Yi Yi.

"Please don't blame yourself. You're only the reason; the fault lies with Yun Qing Yan from the Divine Offering Land's fault…" Feng Qing Yang said to console Duan Ling Tian. He understood his disciple's feelings. Perhaps, both of them had looked forward to meeting each other for such a long time that as soon as they met, their rapport was so good even though it was their first meeting. It was as though they had been master and disciple for years.

Since Duan Ling Tian met Mu Yi Yi outside of the Luo River Sect's estate when he first came here, he knew the way to the sect.

With Duan Ling Tian giving directions and Feng Qing Yang's speed, they arrived at the Luo River Sect in just a blink of an eye.

Feng Qing Yang did not waste time. He roared, "Situ Zhuqing, show yourself!"

Feng Qing Yang's way of doing things brought a sense of familiarity to Duan Ling Tian. It was similar to the way he did things. Initially, he assumed his master would be courteous first. After all, his master was the Heavenly Emperor of the Solitary Destructive Heaven, and Situ Zhuqing was the Heavenly Emperor of the Luo River Heaven. Instead, his master had acted bluntly and yelled at Situ Zhuqing to show herself.

…

Needless to say, Feng Qing Yang's voice caused a huge commotion in the Luo River Sect.

"What?!"

"Who's that? How dare he addresses our Lord Heavenly Emperor by her name?"

"His voice seems to have come from above the estate. Are the disciples and elders on guard duty deaf and blind? Didn't they know there's an intruder?"

"Hey, since he dares to address our Lord Heavenly Emperor by name and even asked her to show herself, I think he's not simple."

Many elders in the Luo River Sect were furious by the lack of respect. However, there were a few who were calm and observant. These few people knew that the person who shouted for their sect leader, also the Heavenly Emperor of the Luo River Heaven, to show herself must not be simple. For someone to be able to do something like that, they had to be insane or possess heaven-defying strength. If that person was insane, he would not have been able to enter the Luo River Sect's estate at all.

Many high-ranking officials in the sect began to feel wary after thinking about it. Nevertheless, they still mustered up their courage to face the intruder.

…

Soon enough, roughly a dozen high-ranking officials appeared in front of Duan Ling Tian and Feng Qing Yang who were standing side by side. The duo looked at the people in front of them with an indifferent gaze.

At this moment, one of the Luo River Sect's titled Celestial Emperor stepped forward nervously and asked, "Sir, are you looking for our Lord Heavenly Emperor?"

Suddenly, one person from the group of high-ranking officials in the Luo River Sect widened his eyes in horror. He cried out in disbelief, "You… Y-you… You're Heavenly Emperor Feng Qing Yang!"

"Do you know me?" Feng Qing Yang looked at the old man who recognized him in surprise. After all, this was his first time in the Luo River Heaven.

At the same time, the others from the Luo River Sect looked as though they had been struck by lightning after hearing the old man's words. The Heavenly Emperor of the Solitary Destructive Heaven, Feng Qing Yang, was here to look for their Heavenly Emperor? Moreover, based on his tone earlier and his attitude now, it did not seem like he was here for friendly reasons. With this thought in mind, chills ran up their spines immediately.

All of them knew that Heavenly Emperors were not equal in strength. It was likely that Feng Qing Yang was stronger than Situ Zhuqing before he even entered the Asura Hell. Now that he had grown stronger, how could Situ Zhuqing be a match for him?

"Lord Heavenly Emperor," the old man who recognized Feng Qing Yang bowed and said respectfully, "My friend is a titled Celestial Emperor in the Pavilion Shaft Heaven… I had the fortune to meet you once when I was visiting my friend in the Heavenly Palace of the Pavilion Shaft Heaven."

"I see." Indeed, he had visited the Heavenly Palace of the Pavilion Shaft Heaven many times due to his friendship with Gongsun Xuanyuan, the Heavenly Emperor of the Pavilion Shaft Heaven. Their friendship stemmed from both their love for sparring. Needless to say, he had not been to the Heavenly Palace of the Pavilion Shaft Heaven after leaving the Asura Hell. However, that did not mean he had not met Gongsun Xuanyuan.

Since before, Feng Qing Yang and Gongsun Xuanyuan had an arrangement to take turns meeting at each other's Heavenly Palaces. Accordingly, it was supposed to be Feng Qing Yang's turn to go to the Heavenly Palace of the Pavilion Shaft Heaven. However, when Gongsun Xuanyuan heard about Feng Qing Yang's return, out of concern, he took the initiative and invited himself to the Heavenly Palace of the Solitary Destructive Heaven instead.

Needless to say, after seeing that Feng Qing Yan was fine, Gongsun Xuanyuan began to spar with Feng Qing Yang as usual. Alas, he was thoroughly beaten. He did not expect Feng Qing Yang being forced to enter the Asura Hell would be a blessing in disguise. Most importantly, Feng Qing Yang attained godhood due to his time in the Asura Hell. In the past, although Feng Qing Yang's law of earth was powerful, Feng Qing Yang had to use the law of destruction as well to be evenly matched with him. However, Feng Qing Yang managed to thoroughly defeat him in their latest sparring session even though Feng Qing Yang was only using the law of earth's clone.

"The Heavenly Emperor of the Pavilion Shaft Heaven?" Duan Ling Tian's eyes widened slightly. He vaguely remembered Elder Huo saying that Gongsun Xuanyuan, the Heavenly Emperor of the Pavilion Shaft Heaven was also from Yan Huang Planet, otherwise known as earth, in Yan Huang Realm.

Duan Ling Tian soon recalled Gongsun Xuanyuan had ascended to the Jade Emperor Heaven in the past. He grew powerful really quickly, and it was not long before he went to challenge a Heavenly Emperor of a Devata Realm. After defeating that Heavenly Emperor, the name of the Devata Realm was changed to the Pavilion Shaft Heaven, and he became its Heavenly Emperor.
