"Bing 'er, you can leave this place now!"
Seeing Murong Bing's blank expression, Nangong Xiu smiled faintly. Her eyes were filled with doting love.
At the same time, she sighed in relief.
Although Duan Lingtian had lied to her during the Alchemy Conference, she was still pleased with his arrival and Duan Lingtian's strength.
At the very least, she no longer had to worry about her junior sister harming her niece.
Her niece had found herself a good man.
"Leave this place?"
Murong Bing smiled bitterly. "Is master going to punish me? Senior aunt, did she ask you and Lyu Luo to pick me up so we can meet one last time? "
Although Murong Bing had already expected this outcome, she could not remain as calm as before when she was faced with it in real life.
"Silly girl, what are you thinking? You're fine now. Your master won't punish you anymore. "
Nangong shook his head and smiled.
"Third Senior Sister, the man you found is too powerful … Even grandmaster doesn't dare to act recklessly in front of him."
At this time, Luluo left Murong Bing's embrace and raised her head to look at Murong Bing, her slightly immature face filled with excitement.
Based on her words, it was as though she was the one who had acted recklessly in front of the people from the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect and not Duan Lingtian.
"Hm?"
Murong Bing was confused. She had no idea what had happened.
It was only when Lyu Luo told her what had happened that she finally understood what the man had done.
He had easily imprisoned her master, Wang Dan Feng, a Nine Palaces Celestial Duke and the Second Guardian of the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect.
Then, he managed to stop her senior aunt, Nangong Xiu, the Sect Leader of the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect, and Lin Ru, the First Guardian of the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect.
Most importantly, Nangong Xiu and Lin Ru, two Nine Palaces Celestial Dukes who were stronger than her master, had joined forces and even used the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect's Sect Guarding Celestial Weapons.
Even then, they were still unable to break through the man's defenses.
"He … is an Immortal King expert?!"
Murong Bing's heart skipped a beat when she learned that even her grandmaster's father, the Supreme Guardian of the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect, Wang Qiu Kuang, was so intimidated that he did not dare to act recklessly.
Although, when that man had just arrived and threatened to challenge her grandmaster, she knew that he had come.
However, she had never thought that he really had the strength to defeat her grandmaster.
After all, her grandmaster, the Supreme Guardian of the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect, was the strongest person in the sect. He was a powerful Ten Directions Celestial Duke.
In fact, when the man told her that he would come back to pick her up after a thousand years, she thought that he had returned empty-handed.
She had never thought that:
Not only did that man subdue her master with a flip of his palm, but he also easily withstood the joint attack of her Sect Leader and Guardian Lin Ru.
Then, when her grandmaster appeared, he was so scared that he did not dare to accept the challenge.
Moreover, he had even forced her extremely prideful Master to compromise!
"This … this …"
Murong Bing was so shocked that she was unable to regain her senses for a long time.
"Senior sister, he came for you, but why didn't he take you away? Why didn't he see you leave?"
Lyu Luo was confused.
"Bing 'er, did he speak to you before he left?"
As the Sect Leader of the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect and a Nine Palaces Celestial Duke, Nangong, naturally, knew that it would be easy for Duan Lingtian to communicate with Murong Bing if he wanted to.
"Yes."
Murong Bing nodded. Then, she looked in the direction where the Voice Transmission came from and muttered to herself, "He told me that he would come back to pick me up after a thousand years."
"A thousand years?"
Lyu Luo's eyes widened. "So long?"
To Lyu Luo, a thousand years was indeed a long time since she was not even 100 years old.
"A thousand years … It seems like he has something to do in the coming days so it's not convenient for him to bring you along."
Nangong speculated.
"Yes."
Murong Bing nodded.
"If it's not convenient for him to bring Third Senior Sister along, why is it convenient for him to bring that woman along?"
Luluo was noncommittal as she coldly snorted.
Murong Bing remained silent.
"Bing 'er, although I don't know what's the relationship between Master Duan and the white-clad woman, the way Master Duan looked at her was more like the way an elder brother would look at his younger sister. It wasn't the kind of love a man would give to a woman."
Nangong said.
Although she had not experienced love for most of her life, as the saying went, 'Even if you have never eaten pork, you have seen a pig run.' Due to this reason, she could tell Duan Ling Tian did not have any feelings for the white-clad woman.
Upon hearing Nangong's words, Murong Bing's eyes lit up.
Nangong sighed inwardly when she saw the light in Murong Bing's eyes.
There was one more thing she did not say.
It was:
Although the way Duan Ling Tian looked at the white-clad woman did not seem to be filled with affection, the way the white-clad woman looked at Duan Ling Tian was as though she was looking at her lover.
"Since Master Duan has told you that he'll come for you after a thousand years, it means he has his own considerations … A thousand years is just a blink of an eye for Celestials like us."
Nangong continued, "Therefore, Bing 'er, you should stay in the sect for the next thousand years and wait for Master Duan to come for you."
After a while, Nangong added, "Bing 'er, don't go and see your master for the next few days … I'm afraid she won't be happy to see you."
"I'll go with you in a few days."
Nangong said.
"Thank you, Senior Uncle Sect Leader."
Murong Bing knew that with her master's pride, she would be in a bad mood after being forced to lower her head.
If she went to see her master now, although her master would not dare to touch her due to the man's strength, she would not be happy.
…
"Brother Ling Tian, why didn't you take Sister Murong Bing away from the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect?"
After Duan Lingtian left the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect, Huan 'er, who had remained silent in the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect's estate, could not help but ask Duan Lingtian.
"It's easy for me to take her away from the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect, but I can't guarantee her safety if she comes with me."
Duan Lingtian said truthfully, "Therefore, I think it's best for her to stay in the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect. When the time is right and I'm strong enough to protect her, I'll come and take her away."
After Duan Lingtian finished speaking, he turned to look at the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect's estate and thought to himself, 'If I can return from the Divine Offering Land after a thousand years, I'll come and take you back.'
Duan Lingtian was certain he would be strong enough to roam the Devata Realms if he could return from the Divine Offering Land after a thousand years.
"Guardian Tie!"
Duan Lingtian looked at Tie Tai He and said with a glint in his eyes, "Now that the matter with the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect is over, I don't plan to return to the sect.
I plan to leave the borderlands and head to the central area! "
As soon as Duan Lingtian finished speaking, he raised his hand and two Memory Celestial Talismans appeared in his hand.
"These two Memory Celestial Talismans contain the Blissful Sect's Duke Grade Celestial Method, the Immobilization King Method, and the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect's Duke Grade Divine Ability, the Eastern Purple Qi.
After a while, Duan Lingtian brought the two Memory Celestial Talismans to Tie Tai He with his Celestial Origin Energy.
"Master Duan."
Tie Tai He became anxious when he heard Duan Lingtian's words. "You should personally hand these Memory Celestial Talismans to the sect leader.
Moreover, don't you owe Jian Qiu Luo, the Sect Leader of the Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect, a favor? Aren't you going to return the favor before leaving? "
In order to persuade Duan Lingtian to stay, Tie Tai He even mentioned Jian Qiu Luo, the Sect Leader of the Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect.
Previously, when Duan Lingtian returned to the Wasteland with the people from the Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect, he had promised Jian Qiu Luo that he would return the favor.
"I haven't forgotten Sect Leader Jian's favor."
Duan Lingtian smiled faintly and said, "Elder Tie, when you return to the sect, tell the sect leader to give one of the Duke Grade Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities to the Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect after he or someone else has completely mastered them.
This way, I'll be able to return the favor to Jian Qiu Luo, the Sect Leader of the Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect.
I'm sure the sect leader won't refuse this.
"If Sect Master refuses … I'll return the favor myself in the future."
Moreover, please bid farewell to the sect leader, Master Situ, and the others on my behalf. Tell them that I'll visit them if I have the chance in the future. "
As soon as Duan Ling Tian finished speaking, he did not wait for Tie Tai He's reply before he left with Huan 'er. It was as though they had vanished into thin air.
Tie Tai He could only smile wryly when he saw Duan Lingtian and Huan 'er vanishing into thin air.
'Master Duan left in such a hurry …'
Initially, Tie Tai He thought Duan Lingtian would only consider leaving the borderlands for the central area after returning to the Tai Yi Celestial Sect.
He did not expect Duan Lingtian would leave the borderlands for the central area as soon as he left the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect.
Duan Lingtian brought Huan 'er and Huan' er to a forest in just a blink of an eye.
"Huan 'er, I'll leave the rest of the journey to the central area. Currently, I have enough Celestial Origin Energy for two or three more Celestial Kings.
If I travel on my own, I'm afraid I won't have enough Celestial Origin Energy for two more Celestial Kings before we reach the central area. "
There was no need for Duan Lingtian to hide anything from Huan 'er.
Although he had tried to conserve his Celestial Origin Energy during the journey to the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect, he had still expended a lot of it.
Currently, his strength was only comparable to a Five Elements Celestial King.
"Brother Ling Tian, you should rest … Save your Celestial Origin Energy for when you need it," Huan 'er said.
