Duan Lingtian thought He Shan, the Old Ancestor of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, had killed Bai Yu Xuan, the Young Master of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect.
However, after learning that Bai Yuxuan was still alive, his first thought was:
All of this was done by the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect.
Bai Yu Xuan, the Young Master of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, faked his death. Then, Bai Wu Ji, the Sect Leader of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, made use of this matter to kill He Shan, the Old Ancestor of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect.
He Shan was deliberately killed by the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect!
After learning all this, Duan Lingtian's anger flared up spontaneously, and he could not help but stand up for He Shan …
"Sect Leader."
When Duan Lingtian saw Bai Ping, the Sect Leader of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, his eyes were bloodshot. Celestial Origin Energy surged out of Bai Ping's body as though it was on the verge of exploding.
Duan Lingtian was called over by Situ Ming to persuade Bai Ping.
When Bai Ping learned that He Shan, the Old Ancestor of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, was plotted against by the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, he was so enraged that he wanted to charge into the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect and demand an explanation.
It was Tie Taihe, Situ Ming, and the others who stabilized him.
"Master Duan."
Upon seeing Duan Lingtian, the anger on Bai Ping's face dissipated. At the same time, he withdrew the Celestial Origin Energy in his body.
"I know what happened."
Duan Lingtian said, "The Old Ancestor was deliberately killed by the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect!"
"Sect Leader, why would the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect want to kill the Old Ancestor? Is there any conflict between you and the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect? "
Duan Ling Tian could not help but ask when he reached the end of his sentence.
In Duan Lingtian's opinion:
Since the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect had plotted to kill He Shan, the Old Ancestor of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, it must be because there was an irreconcilable conflict between them. Otherwise, there was no need for the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect to go to such lengths to kill He Shan.
"No."
Bai Ping shook his head. "The Old Ancestor has no ties with the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect. He has never had any conflicts with anyone from the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect.
"Master Duan, I've asked the sect master about this."
Situ Ming looked at Duan Lingtian and said, "The only time the old ancestor had a conflict with the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect was when we went to the Alchemy Conference in Alchemy City in the Barren Land."
"Didn't we have a conflict with Bai Yu Xuan, the Young Master of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect?"
"According to the sect leader, the Old Ancestor has never had any conflict with anyone from the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect."
Situ Ming said.
"Master Situ, you're saying the people from the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect wanted to kill the Old Ancestor because of that incident? They even went to great lengths to murder the Old Ancestor?"
Hearing Situ Ming's words, Duan Lingtian's pupils suddenly shrank.
If that was the case, then he was also responsible for this matter.
After all, He Shan was not the only one who had a conflict with the Young Master of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect.
However, as the strongest sect in the Six Southeastern Regions, would the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect really kill the Old Ancestor over a minor conflict? After all, the Old Ancestor had shown mercy and didn't kill anyone from the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect! "
When Duan Ling Tian reached the end of his sentence, his tone turned gloomy.
If He Shan had killed the Young Master of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, Bai Yu Xuan, the Old Ancestor of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, would have died as well.
"Master Duan, do you remember how Sect Leader Bai Wu Ji reacted when he found out his son was killed?"
Situ Ming asked again.
Duan Lingtian began to recall the events that had transpired.
"Bai Wu Ji, the Sect Leader of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, didn't seem like he was acting … His anger, pain, and hysteria came from the bottom of his heart. I, Situ Ming, have lived for half of my life, so I can tell.
"So … can we assume that Bai Wuji didn't know that his son was still alive?"
Situ Ming continued to speak.
"Master Situ, you're saying Bai Yu Xuan, the Young Master of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, is the culprit?"
Duan Ling Tian was not stupid. It was not difficult for him to figure this out when he heard Situ Ming's words.
"Yes."
Situ Ming nodded. His eyes turned cold as he said, "Bai Wu Ji, the Sect Leader of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, has a good reputation in the Six Southeastern Regions and the borderlands. It's almost impossible for him to kill the Old Ancestor over such a trivial matter.
However, it's entirely possible for Bai Yu Xuan, the Young Master of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, to do such a thing. "
Situ Ming paused for a moment before he continued to say, "Do you remember when Bai Wu Ji, the Sect Leader of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, took out his son Bai Yu Xuan's Soul Pearl? The Soul Pearl did not shatter, but the soul energy in it was depleted.
"Every once in a while, the soul energy in the Soul Orb will deplete and need to be replenished."
Bai Yu Xuan, the Young Master of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, must've known when the soul energy in his Soul Pearl would deplete. He could've used that opportunity to infuriate his father so his father would kill the Old Ancestor to avenge him! "
Situ Ming spoke confidently as though he had personally witnessed Bai Yu Xuan, the Young Master of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, trying to kill the Old Ancestor of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect.
'Bai Yu Xuan, the Young Master of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect …'
Bai Yu Xuan's figure appeared in Duan Lingtian's mind. His eyes turned cold as he said in a low voice, "Since Bai Yu Xuan isn't dead, shouldn't the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect kill him to avenge the Old Ancestor?
"After all, the Patriarch died because of him … Now, he's not dead, but the Patriarch is dead."
Situ Ming smiled bitterly.
"Master Duan."
Situ Ming smiled bitterly. "Do you know why the Sect Leader is so angry? It's not only because Bai Yu Xuan, the Young Master of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, is still alive, but it's also because of the news from the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect … "
"According to the news from the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, the Old Ancestor did try to kill the Young Master of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect. However, he failed and injured the Young Master of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect.
Situ Ming said.
"Ridiculous!"
Upon hearing Situ Ming's words, Duan Lingtian's first thought was that the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect was shameless. How could they say such things?
The Old Ancestor of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect was an Eight Trigrams Celestial Duke. How could he fail to kill two people who could be easily killed?
This was ridiculous!
"Indeed, it's absurd. However, unless the Tai Yi Celestial Sect can provide evidence that the Old Ancestor didn't attack Bai Yu Xuan, the Young Master of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, the Old Ancestor of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, they can just deny it."
Situ Ming said.
"Even the sects in the Six Southeastern Regions won't believe their words, right?"
Duan Lingtian said.
"They won't believe it."
Situ Ming nodded. "However, since the Tai Yi Celestial Sect can't provide any evidence, they won't agree even if we join forces with them to attack the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect.
Moreover, it's been some time since the Alchemy Conference ended. Most of the people from the various sects have returned to their sects. Under such circumstances, if we can't provide evidence that the Old Ancestor didn't kill Bai Yu Xuan, they won't help us. "
Situ Ming's tone was filled with helplessness when he spoke.
Duan Lingtian's expression darkened when he heard Situ Ming's words.
Although Duan Lingtian had witnessed the Old Ancestor's death during the Alchemy Conference, he had only felt indignant for the Old Ancestor of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect.
However, now that he learned the Old Ancestor of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect had been killed due to their conflict with Bai Yu Xuan, the Young Master of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect.
However, Situ Ming's feelings were completely different now.
Apart from feeling indignant for the Old Ancestor of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, he felt guilty.
After all, he was also involved in the conflict with Bai Yu Xuan.
In fact, the reason they had a conflict with Bai Yu Xuan was because of Huan 'er.
Naturally, he did not blame Huan 'er.
After all, Bai Yu Xuan, the Young Master of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, was the one who started the conflict.
"Bai Yu Xuan …"
At this moment, Duan Ling Tian's eyes shone with killing intent as though he was about to devour someone.
This was the first time he wanted to kill someone so badly since he came to the Devata Realm.
"Then, doesn't this mean the Old Ancestor died in vain?"
Duan Lingtian asked in a low voice.
"Theoretically, yes. After all, we don't have any evidence to prove the Old Ancestor didn't kill Bai Yu Xuan, the Young Master of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect. Unless Bai Yu Xuan himself says the Old Ancestor didn't kill him or the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect's disciple betrays him, there's no way the Old Ancestor's death will come to an end. "
Situ Ming sighed. "In the end, the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect will only put on an act and compensate the Tai Yi Celestial Sect."
"Compensate? Who cares? "
Bai Ping sneered.
"The Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, Bai Yu Xuan …"
Flames of fury gradually burned in Duan Ling Tian's eyes. Moreover, once it burned, it seemed as though it was difficult to extinguish.
'Bai Yu Xuan must die. Otherwise, I'll feel guilty for the rest of my life for the Old Ancestor's death. After all, the conflict between the Old Ancestor and Bai Yu Xuan was because of me and Huan 'er.'
At this moment, Duan Lingtian swore inwardly.
He swore he would kill Bai Yu Xuan, the Young Master of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, to avenge the Old Ancestor of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect.
After bidding farewell to Bai Ping and Situ Ming, Duan Ling Tian began to study the Duke Grade Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities he obtained from the Blissful Sect and the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect. He was eager to improve his strength as soon as possible.
Only then would he be able to protect himself and the people around him.
Only then would he be able to avenge those who had died because of him.
Duan Lingtian took full responsibility for the Old Ancestor's death.
