"Vice … Vice Palace Master … It's … It's me …"
The patrolling disciple, Huang Zheng, lowered his head in fear when he saw Yun Fu Ye, the former First Vice Palace Master of Wandering Saint Palace, staring at him fiercely. At the same time, he broke out in cold sweat.
Huang Zheng finally remembered.
The Palace Master of Wandering Saint Palace was currently in closed-door cultivation in the palace in front of them.
He had hastily swore on the lightning penalty oath earlier. The Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation had reacted to the lightning penalty oath. It was very likely that it would affect the Palace Master's cultivation.
At the same time, Yun Fu Ye shifted his gaze to Huang Zheng.
In the next moment …
Weng!
The cold-faced Yun Fu Ye casually lifted his hand, and an incomparably solid blade glow appeared in front of the patrolling elder, Hou Feng. It slashed through the air, causing Hou Feng's pupils to involuntarily shrink.
Hou Feng's eyes widened in shock.
Spurt!
The solid saber ray seemed to have transformed into the scythe of the Grim Reaper as it effortlessly cut through Huang Zheng's neck and decapitated him.
Before blood could spurt out, the saber ray shone brightly as though it could annihilate everything.
Bang!
A muffled explosion rang in the air as the two halves of Huang Zheng's body were destroyed by a force that seemed capable of burning everything into ashes.
Only a Spatial Ring was left behind as it fell from the sky.
Gasp!
Hou Feng was the first to recover from his shock, and he could not help but gasp. His gaze when he looked at Yun Fu Ye again had become even more reverent.
At the same time, the other two patrolling disciples regained their senses as well. Horror dawned on them.
Even though they had only heard a short-lived saber hum and a muffled explosion, they had not been able to clearly see how Yun Fu Ye had attacked from the beginning to the end …
However, Huang Zheng's disappearance and the Spatial Ring that belonged to him that had fallen from the sky were reminding them of the fact that he was still alive.
Huang Zheng was dead!
After realizing this, the two patrolling disciples hurriedly lowered their heads. Their bodies also trembled in an instant, as if they were deeply afraid that Yun Fuye would attack them after killing Huang Zheng.
After killing Huang Zheng, Yun Fuye had a calm expression on his face. It was as if he had just done something trivial and unimportant.
As a matter of fact, it was indeed an unimportant matter to him.
"Why did he swear on the lightning penalty oath here?"
Yun Fuye's gaze quickly landed on Hou Feng as he asked bluntly.
After all, there must be a reason why a disciple of Wandering Saint Palace swore on the lightning penalty oath here.
"Lord Vice Palace Master, it's like this …"
Faced with Yun Fu Ye's question, Hou Feng, naturally, did not dare to slack off. He quickly explained everything that had happened. "Huang Zheng swore on the lightning penalty oath to prove that the Vice Palace Master of our Wandering Saint Palace looks identical to the Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion!"
"They have the same name and look identical?"
Yun Fu Ye frowned.
Hou Feng's words made him realize how serious this matter was.
The new Vice Palace Master of the Wandering Saint Palace looked identical to the Young Mansion Master of the Azure Cloud Mansion.
Moreover, both of them had the same name and were called Duan Lingtian?
How could there be such a coincidence in this world?
"Do you have a portrait of the Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion, Duan Lingtian?"
Yun Fu Ye asked in a deep voice as he shifted his gaze to the other two patrolling disciples.
"Lord Vice Palace Master, this is the portrait of the Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion!"
As soon as Yun Fu Ye finished speaking, the patrolling disciple from Wandering Saint Palace who had a portrait of Duan Lingtian handed it over to Hou Feng respectfully. It was as though he was afraid he would follow in Huang Zheng's footsteps.
Whoosh!
Yun Fuye didn't seem to have done anything, but an invisible force had already brought the portrait in the hands of the patrolling disciple to him.
Yun Fu Ye raised his hand and caught the portrait. After taking a look at it, he asked the patrolling disciple in a deep voice, "Are you sure this is the portrait of the Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion, Duan Lingtian?"
"That's what people are saying."
The patrolling disciple replied anxiously.
"Lord Vice Palace Master, that's what people are saying … Moreover, many Human-Devils from the Human-Devil clan have used the Soul Searching Secret Tactic on humans who have seen this portrait. For this reason, we can confirm that the person in the portrait is the former Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion, Duan Lingtian!"
Hou Feng chimed in at this moment.
Upon hearing this, Yun Fu Ye narrowed his eyes and nodded indifferently. He did not even bid farewell to Hou Feng and the others before he left like a gust of wind.
After Yun Fu Ye left, Hou Feng couldn't help but sigh in relief.
Although he was at the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, he still felt pressured when facing Yun Fu Ye who was at the peak of the Eighth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage.
As for the other two patrolling disciples, they were even worse off. Their bodies were drenched in cold sweat as though they were about to collapse.
"Don't spread the news today! Otherwise, all three of you will die! "
Right when Hou Feng and the others heaved sighs of relief and felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted from their shoulders, Yun Fu Ye's voice resounded through the air like a thunderclap, and it shocked them to the point their hearts twitched fiercely.
The three of them immediately remembered Yun Fu Ye's warning.
After Yun Fu Ye left like a gust of wind, he returned to the residence of his master, the Palace Master of Wandering Saint Palace, after warning Hou Feng and the others.
"Little Junior Sister seems to have met the new Vice Palace Master of Wandering Saint Palace, Duan Lingtian!"
At the same time, Yun Fuye recalled this matter.
Yun Fu Ye was the first direct disciple of the Palace Master of Wandering Saint Palace.
The Little Junior Sister he mentioned was, naturally, the last direct disciple of the Palace Master of Wandering Saint Palace, Huang Wen Jing!
"I'll check with Little Junior Sister again. If I'm certain the new Vice Palace Master of Wandering Saint Palace is Duan Lingtian, the Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion, I'll have to discuss this matter with the other Vice Palace Masters! "
As Yun Fu Ye muttered to himself, a chilling light flashed in his eyes. It was as if he was about to devour someone!
In just a blink of an eye, Yun Fu Ye disappeared from where he was standing.
When he reappeared, he was at the other side of the residence of the Palace Master of Wandering Saint Palace. It was also the place where his Little Junior Sister, Huang Wen Jing, cultivated.
"Eldest Senior Brother."
Huang Wen Jing, who was dressed in white, walked out of her cultivation place when she heard the greeting.
"Junior Sister, take a look at this portrait. Do you know the person in it? "
After calling out to Huang Wen Jing, Yun Fu Ye raised his hand and a portrait flew out before it hovered in front of Huang Wen Jing.
At the same time, the portrait entered Huang Wen Jing's eyes.
"He …"
The moment she saw the young man in the portrait, Huang Wen Jing's delicate body trembled imperceptibly again, and a complicated luster appeared in her eyes.
Ever since she found out the man had a wife two years ago, she had forced herself to forget about him.
For the past two years, she had focused on her cultivation so that she would not think about him.
However, Huang Wen Jing did not expect this at all.
When she saw the portrait of the man again after two years, her heart, which had been sealed for two years, began to stir.
"Eldest Senior Brother, why are you showing me the portrait of Vice Palace Master Duan?"
Huang Wen Jing took a deep breath. She was afraid that Yun Fu Ye would notice that something was amiss. However, a hint of doubt appeared on her beautiful and cold face.
"Vice Palace Master Duan?"
As soon as Huang Wen Jing finished speaking, Yun Fu Ye's eyes widened. He said in a deep voice, "It seems like they're telling the truth. There's indeed something wrong with Vice Palace Master Duan!"
"Huh?"
Huang Wen Jing could not help but frown when she heard Yun Fu Ye's words. "Eldest Senior Brother, what do you mean? What do you mean by there's something wrong with Vice Palace Master Duan? "
"Little Junior Sister, I'm afraid you're unaware that the portrait I'm showing you isn't about Duan Lingtian, the new Vice Palace Master of Wandering Saint Palace. It's about Duan Lingtian, the Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion! "
Yun Fu Ye did not hide anything from his junior sister, Huang Wen Jing.
"What?!"
Huang Wen Jing's expression changed drastically when she heard Yun Fu Ye's words. "Senior Brother, you mean … Vice Mansion Master Duan from our Wandering Saint Palace not only has the same name as the Young Mansion Master of the Azure Cloud Mansion, but they even look identical?!"
Huang Wen Jing finally regained her senses.
"Or rather, they're the same person!"
Yun Fu Ye sneered.
"The same person?"
Huang Wen Jing was so shocked that her heart skipped a beat. She shook her head. "How's that possible?
The Young Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion left Dobusei Subterranean for the Upper Province less than ten years ago. Before he left, he wasn't even at the Saint Celestial Stage. How is it possible for him to be at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage in less than ten years? "
In the end, Huang Wen Jing's voice became 'weaker'.
She could not help but recall Duan Lingtian's ability to help others improve their Innate Spiritual Roots.
'Since he can help me improve the grade of my Innate Spiritual Root, it means he can help himself improve the grade of his Innate Spiritual Root as well. If he improves his Innate Spiritual Root to a dark violet Innate Spiritual Root and goes to the Upper Province, it's not impossible for him to become so strong in less than ten years!'
Huang Wen Jing was flustered when she thought about this.
"That seems to be the case … I didn't think about this earlier!"
Upon hearing Huang Wenjing's words, Yun Fuye couldn't help but frown and mumble.
