"Yes."
Duan Lingtian felt as though he had nowhere to hide under Xia Jie's gaze. However, he did not dare to ignore Xia Jie's question.
Based on the conversation between Yun Qing Yan's subordinate and the middle-aged man in front of him, Duan Lingtian knew the middle-aged man was a middle-aged man.
He was certain the middle-aged man was from the Xia Clan, the clan of his wife, Kerr, in her past life.
Duan Lingtian did not think it was a coincidence that the middle-aged man was here.
"Nine … 99 Heavenly Veins?"
At this moment, Xia Jie who was staring at Duan Ling Tian cried out in surprise as though he had discovered a new continent.
Duan Lingtian and Tang Xiao Xiao were taken aback by Xia Jie's words.
Tang Xiao Xiao looked at Xia Jie in confusion.
Duan Lingtian, on the other hand, looked at Xia Jie in surprise. He did not expect Xia Jie to be able to tell that he had 99 Heavenly Veins.
According to Huo Lao, the Three-legged Golden Crow, the Saint Veins in the Saint Province Realm were called Heavenly Veins in the Devata Realms. Moreover, Heavenly Veins had a greater impact on Celestials than those in the mundane realms.
Naturally, Duan Lingtian was unaware of the impact of Heavenly Veins on Celestials in the Devata Realms.
However, in the mundane realms, the benefits of having 99 Heavenly Veins were not as obvious as the benefits of having 99 Heavenly Veins.
Perhaps, as Huo Lao had said, it was because the strength in the mundane realms was too weak.
At the same time, Xia Jie seemed to realize he had lost his composure. He calmed himself down before he said, "You're a good-looking man, but you're too weak. It's a sin that you and Xue 'er became dao partners after she was reincarnated. You even had a daughter with her. "
Xue 'er?
Duan Lingtian's eyes lit up when he heard Xia Jie's words. He looked at Xia Jie with a burning gaze as he asked, "Senior, is Kerr doing well?"
Based on Xia Jie's words, it was clear Duan Lingtian was referring to his wife, Kerr.
"Kerr?"
Xia Jie was stunned when he heard Duan Lingtian's words.
His niece had told him that her name in this life was Kerr. Her cultivation partner in the mundane realm had also called her that.
"She's under house arrest now … Do you think she'll recover?"
Xia Jie snapped as he glanced at Duan Lingtian.
"House arrest?!"
Duan Lingtian's expression changed. "Yun Qing Yan put Kerr under house arrest?"
"Yun Qingyan?"
Xia Jie snorted and said disdainfully, "That brat is from the Yun Family. He doesn't have the guts to put the little princess of the Xia Family under house arrest …"
"The one who put Xue 'er under house arrest is her father, your old-fashioned father-in-law!"
When he reached the end of his sentence, he looked at Duan Ling Tian meaningfully.
Upon hearing this, Duan Lingtian knew Kerr's father was the father of Kerr's previous life, Xia Ning Xue.
However, now that Kerr had regained her memories, it meant she was Xia Ning Xue, and Xia Ning Xue was her!
"Alright, I don't have much time, so I'll make it short."
Xia Jie did not beat around the bush as he said, "I'm here because Xue 'er asked me to. I didn't expect to run into Yun Qing Yan who sent his men to kill you. You're lucky. If I came any later, you'd be dead by now!"
Xue 'er asked me to tell you that your family and friends are safe. They've escaped Yun Qing Yan's control and have gone to the Xia Family.
However, although they've escaped Yun Qing Yan's control and gone to the Xia Family, my elder brother, Xue 'er's father, has no intention of letting them go.
He intends to use your family and friends to threaten Xue 'er and force her to marry Yun Qing Yan! "
Xia Jie said.
"What?!"
Duan Lingtian's expression changed drastically when he heard Xia Jie's words. He said angrily, "How can there be such a bastard of a father? That's his biological daughter! Moreover, his daughter already has a husband and a daughter in this life. How can he force her to marry someone else? "
"Damn it! Damn it! "
Duan Lingtian became hysterical when he spoke. It was as though he had lost his mind.
From the beginning until the end, Xia Jie watched silently as Duan Ling Tian threw a tantrum. However, his gaze that was hidden under his messy hair was a little strange.
"Duan Lingtian, you …"
When Tang Xiao Xiao saw the peculiar expression on Xia Jie's face and recalled that Duan Ling Tian seemed to have insulted Xia Jie's elder brother, she felt slightly anxious. She was afraid Xia Jie would vent his anger on Duan Ling Tian.
"Haha! Well said! Well said! "
Tang Xiao Xiao was about to persuade Duan Lingtian when Xia Jie's hearty laughter interrupted her.
"That fellow is a bastard! A damn bastard! I've been wanting to scold him for a long time! Bastard! "
At this moment, Xia Jie was venting the emotions that he had suppressed for many years.
He had long held a grudge against his elder brother.
However, it was his elder brother, the Clan Leader of the Xia Family.
Not only was Tang Xiao Xiao shocked by Xia Jie's sudden outburst, but even Duan Ling Tian was shocked as well. Both of them stared at Xia Jie in a daze.
After a while, Xia Jie seemed to realize he had lost his composure so he calmed down.
"Not bad, not bad! Boy, you're not bad at all!"
At the same time, Xia Jie looked at Duan Ling Tian with a satisfied expression on his face. "Your father-in-law doesn't acknowledge you as his son-in-law, but your third uncle acknowledges you as his niece-in-law! Compared to Yun Qing Yan, I like you more! "
"Third uncle?"
Duan Lingtian was taken aback.
"Look at me. I haven't introduced myself yet. I'm Xue 'er's third uncle, Xia Jie. I'm also the third master of the Xia Family.
Xia Jie introduced himself, "You can just call me Third Uncle like Xue 'er."
"Yes, third uncle."
Duan Ling Tian did not expect that his loss of composure earlier, where he scolded his father-in-law whom he had never met, would be acknowledged by his Third Uncle.
This was a good start for him.
At the very least, not everyone in Kerr's family was against him.
He had his own supporters as well.
"Although I like you more and hope you can be with Xue 'er, to be honest, there's nothing I can do to help you. My eldest brother is used to having the final say. If you want to gain his approval, you'll have to rely on yourself. "
When Xia Jie saw the hint of joy in the depths of Duan Ling Tian's eyes, he threw a bucket of cold water on him.
"The spatial tunnel between the Divine Offering Land and the Devata Realms is about to close so I'll have a long story to tell you."
After calculating the time, Xia Jie looked at Duan Lingtian and said, "Currently, Kerr is under house arrest by her father. Her father has also taken her Spatial Ring. Perhaps, that's why Yun Qing Yan dares to send someone to kill you.
After all, since the Spatial Ring has been taken away, it means she won't know if your Soul Pearl has shattered or not. Otherwise, Yun Qing Yan wouldn't have dared to risk her life.
After all, with Xue 'er's temper, if she finds out you're dead, she won't live alone. "
Upon hearing Xia Jie's words, realization dawned on Duan Lingtian.
Previously, he had wondered why Yun Qing Yan dared to send someone to kill him. Was he not worried Kerr would do something crazy if she found out he was dead?
As it turned out, the Spatial Ring where his Soul Pearl was kept had been taken away by Kerr's father.
It was obvious that Yun Qing Yan knew about this, which was why he had sent people to kill him.
"Although my bastard brother plans to use your family and friends to threaten Xue 'er into marrying Yun Qing Yan, something big has happened in the Divine Offering Land recently so he won't be able to deal with it for the time being.
In three days, the spatial tunnel between the Divine Offering Land and the Devata Realms will be closed. It'll be closed for about 1,000 years. During this time, there will be many things happening in the Divine Offering Land so Xue 'er will be safe.
However, after 1,000 years, when the matter in the Divine Offering Land is settled, I'm afraid my bastard brother will bring up the matter again.
At that time, if you don't have the strength to win his approval, I'm afraid Xue 'er will have no choice but to marry Yun Qing Yan if she can't withstand the pressure from him. "
Xia Jie paused for a moment and looked at Duan Lingtian meaningfully.
"Third Uncle … You mean, I … I only have a thousand years?"
Duan Lingtian was not stupid. Naturally, he knew what Xia Jie meant.
"That's right! You only have 1,000 years. "
Xia Jie nodded. "If you still can't gain his approval after 1,000 years, I'm afraid Xue 'er won't be fated to be with you."
1,000 years.
Although Duan Ling Tian had only lived for a few decades in this life and had not even lived for 100 years, he still felt a great pressure.
After all, he knew he might not be able to gain Kerr's father's approval even if he was as strong as a Heavenly Emperor in a Devata Realm.
"Third Uncle, what's the Divine Offering Land?"
Duan Lingtian asked with a grim expression on his face.
Yun Qing Yan had casually sent a servant from the Yun Clan to force Senior Feng Qingyang, the Heavenly Emperor of the Solitary Destructive Heaven, to flee to the Asura Hell, one of the seven deadliest places in the Devata Realms.
This meant the people in the Divine Offering Land were generally very powerful.
"The Divine Offering Land is separated from the mundane realms and Devata Realms. It's a realm created by a supreme powerhouse!"
Xia Jie seemed to have expected Duan Lingtian to ask this question so he was not surprised. He quickly explained, "You'll learn about this when you reach a certain level in the Devata Realm.
As for other information about the Divine Offering Land, it'll only be a burden to you even if I tell you about it. Therefore, I won't say much about it. "
Xia Jie paused for a moment before explaining to Duan Lingtian.
"Naturally, you'll be able to learn about it when you reach a certain level in the Devata Realm.
