The figure that seemed to have appeared out of thin air in front of Duan Lingtian and the others and rapidly solidified was none other than the leader of Zoroastrianism, Tang Xuan!
"Sect Leader!"
Duan Lingtian's pupils suddenly constricted when he saw Tang Xuan, and he revealed an expression of shock and disbelief.
How was this possible?!
Wasn't the Sect Leader of Zoroastrianism fighting fiercely with the Grand Elder of Xuanzha Buddhism?
How could he have returned so quickly?
Gan Ru Yan's expression changed when she saw Tang Xuan return.
As for Kerr, her expression changed slightly, but she still stuck close to Duan Lingtian. It was as if as long as Duan Lingtian was by her side, she was not afraid of anything.
The little girl in Gan Ru Yan's arms was Duan Lingtian and Kerr's daughter, Duan Si Ling. She lay quietly in Gan Ru Yan's arms.
The reason why she was so quiet was because Gan Ru Yan had given her a pill that would allow her to sleep temporarily without any side effects. This was to prevent her and her mother from worrying about her father's safety.
"Guardian Ling Tian, I didn't expect it to be you!"
Tang Xuan looked at Duan Lingtian with a gloomy expression. His eyes were cold and piercing, as if he was about to devour Duan Lingtian.
Previously, although he noticed Duan Lingtian resembled the daughter of their Zoroastrianism's Saint, he only suspected Duan Lingtian was the Saint's man in the Lower Province.
Of course, at the same time, he also thought of a way to test Duan Lingtian.
That method was the statement he had deliberately made to the outside world.
Three months later, the Saint's daughter would be executed!
In his opinion:
As long as Guardian Ling Tian of the Zoroastrianism was the Saint Girl's man in the Lower Province, he would definitely not watch his daughter die. At that time, he would definitely give himself away.
This was the opportunity Tang Xuan had been waiting for.
However, he did not expect Ling Tian of the Zoroastrianism would be exposed even before that.
"It's really me?"
Although Duan Lingtian was shocked by Tang Xuan's appearance, he could not help but feel puzzled when he heard Tang Xuan's words. He did not understand what Tang Xuan's words meant.
"Hmph!"
As though he saw Duan Lingtian's daughter's confusion, Tang Xuan snorted and said, "I noticed that the Saint's daughter's daughter resembles you. Moreover, you're from the Lower Province of the Lower the Saint as well. Therefore, I'm suspicious you're the Saint's man of of the Saint's daughter of the Lower Province of the Saint's of of the Saint of the Lower of the Saint of Heaven! "
Daughter?
Duan of the of the Saint's Ling of the of Of Si daughter daughter daughter's Of the of the of Si saint of the of of the saint's of the the other Saint saint ''s of Si of Her of the of Lingtian of the That of Of She Si of the of Her of the of the of the of Si.
The little girl was lying in Gan Ru Yan's arms. Only half of her cute little face could be seen. However, it was difficult to hide the resemblance between them.
"T-this is Kerr's and my daughter?"
Duan Lingtian's heart skipped a beat when he looked at the little girl. The feeling of being connected by blood melted his heart at this moment.
This was his daughter!
His and Kerr's daughter!
"However, before I can confirm it, it's just a suspicion."
Tang Xuan's voice resonated in the air.
"Initially, I wanted to wait three months and pretend to execute the Saint Girl's daughter to confirm my suspicions. I didn't expect you to expose yourself in advance!"
Tang Xuan's voice was filled with rage as he spoke. It was as though he was extremely furious.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Upon hearing Tang Xuan's words, both Kerr and Gan Ru Yan's expressions changed drastically.
Previously, they were unaware that Tang Xuan had announced to the public that he was going to execute Duan Si Ling.
"So, you released the news that you're going to execute my daughter to bait me into taking the bait?"
Upon hearing Tang Xuan's words, Duan Lingtian finally understood the situation. His expression darkened immediately.
"I didn't bait you into taking the bait."
Tang Xuan continued to say coldly, "Previously, I wasn't sure if you were the man the Saint Girl had found in the Lower Province. I merely wanted to test you. If you weren't, everyone would be happy. However, if you are, even if you're the Guardian of Zoroastrianism, your sin is unforgivable! "
Tang Xuan's words were filled with determination. It was as though there was no room for negotiation.
If Duan Lingtian was the man the Saint Girl of Zoroastrianism had found in the Lower Province, Duan Lingtian would be an unforgivable sinner.
"Lord Sect Leader!"
At this moment, Gan Ru Yan looked at Tang Xuan and said, "Currently, Duan Lingtian is the Guardian of Zoroastrianism. He's the pillar of Zoroastrianism! Can't we give him the privilege to disregard the rules of the sect? "
"In the past, in Zoroastrianism, didn't Guardians have the privilege to disregard the rules of the sect as well?
According to the rules of the sect, he's going to be executed. If he's dead, it'll be a huge loss to Zoroastrianism. It'll only bring harm to us! "
Gan Ru Yan's intention was to convince Tang Xuan to let Duan Lingtian go.
Moreover, she had given Duan Ling Tian and her younger sister the green light to fulfill their wishes and allow the lovers to finally get married.
"Little Ru Yan, it's best if you don't interfere in this matter. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless even if you're Guardian Qing Huo's direct disciple! "
Tang Xuan's expression darkened when he heard Gan Ru Yan's words. He glared at her.
If the Saint Girl of Zoroastrianism was just an ordinary Saint, he would, naturally, give the green light to Duan Lingtian and the Saint Girl because of how important Duan Lingtian was to Zoroastrianism.
He would even take the initiative to matchmake them and turn their story into a story of Zoroastrianism.
However, this Saint Girl was not an ordinary Saint Girl.
Her origin was not simple at all.
Her existence was related to that 'god-like' expert!
For this reason, he did not dare to act recklessly.
Not only did he not dare to act recklessly, but he also had to imprison Duan Lingtian and wait for the god-like powerhouse's judgment in the mundane realm.
Tang Xuan's words to Gan Ru Yan showed how determined he was about the matter between Duan Lingtian and Kerr.
There was no way he would allow the Duan Lingtian to be together with the Saint Girl of Zoroastrianism.
Even if Duan Lingtian was the pillar of Zoroastrianism, Tang Xuan would not allow it.
Duan Lingtian's expression changed drastically when he heard Tang Xuan's words.
Initially, he was still thinking.
Now that Tang Xuan had seen through his disguise, perhaps he could use his current strength to make Tang Xuan appreciate talents and not pursue the matter between him and Ke'er.
He did not expect Tang Xuan to be so resolute.
Duan Lingtian realized there was no way he could let this matter go so he did not waste his breath.
'It seems like I can only try to lure Tang Xuan into the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda and ask Huo Lao to kill him before he kills me. Otherwise, I'll be the one who dies. Moreover, after I die, Kerr and her mother will be in danger as well. '
At this moment, Duan Ling Tian had no other choice.
This was the only thing he could do.
Otherwise, he could not think of any other way to turn the situation around.
"Huo Lao!"
Duan Ling Tian immediately contacted Elder Huo as soon as he decided to do it.
"It's too risky! He might not fall for it! "
This was Huo Lao's reply to Duan Lingtian.
"I know it's too risky and he might not fall for it. However, Huo Lao, do you think I have any other choice?"
Duan Lingtian asked bitterly.
"Put the Jasper Celestial Sword and the Universe Ruler back into the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda. I'll try to see if I can send both of you back to the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land!"
Huo Lao's voice resonated again, shocking Duan Lingtian.
Huo Lao said, "What do you mean?
Send them back to the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land?
"Huo Lao, you …"
Duan Lingtian was about to ask something when Huo Lao interrupted him. "There's no need to ask. What you need to do now is to put the Jasper Celestial Sword and the Universe Ruler back into the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda. "
"Alright!"
All this while, Huo Lao had never lied to Duan Lingtian. Duan Lingtian trusted Huo Lao very much.
Since Huo Lao had said so much, there was no need for him to hesitate anymore.
With just a thought, he moved the Jasper Celestial Sword and the Universe Ruler from his Spatial Ring to the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda.
Almost as soon as Duan Lingtian put the Jasper Celestial Sword and the Universe Ruler back into the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, something happened.
Duan Lingtian discovered.
The Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda that was originally the size of a speck of dust in his ear actually flew out on its own. It seemed like it was out of his control.
"Didn't Huo Lao say before that although he's the pagoda spirit of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, he can't control the pagoda?"
Duan Lingtian was confused when he saw this.
Meanwhile.
"Duan Lingtian!"
Tang Xuan, the Sect Leader of Zoroastrianism, shouted coldly. He moved in an attempt to capture Duan Lingtian.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
…
In just a blink of an eye, the sound of swords whistling in the air rang in the air.
A circular light shield formed from tens of thousands of blood-red sword rays appeared and shrouded Duan Lingtian, Kerr, Gan Ru Yan, and Duan Si Ling.
The Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda that flew out on its own was also shrouded by the light shield.
"Who's there?!"
Tang Xuan's expression changed drastically when he saw the light shield that appeared out of thin air. His Saint Origin surged out as the strength of a powerhouse at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage surged out like a bolt of lightning.
"This …"
Duan Lingtian was stunned when he saw the light shield that appeared out of thin air and shrouded him.
As a Sword Cultivator, he could clearly sense how terrifying the tens of thousands of blood-red sword rays that formed the light shield were. "T-this is Elder Huo's technique?"
Rip!
All of a sudden, the sound of something being torn apart rang in the air, attracting Duan Lingtian's attention.
In the next moment, Duan Lingtian saw a crack appearing in the void.
In the void where the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda was, a 'crack' appeared out of thin air. Behind the crack was extremely dark, and no one knew where it led to.
