"Pill King Ling, we're almost at Sky Reaching Peak. Should we send you directly to the peak or the foot of Sky Reaching Peak?"
Ling Dong, who was sitting cross-legged on the back of the Fire Bird, was suddenly awakened by Zhu Chitian's tired voice.
Gazing into the distance, the towering Heaven Reaching Peak was already within his line of sight. "Alright, let us down now!" After considering for a moment, Ling Dong instructed Zhu Chitian.
After a few clear chirps, the two Fire Birds, one big and one small, landed gently on the ground. When they were close to the ground, Ling Dong and Qiu Qingyi jumped up lightly and floated to the ground. At this time, the two Fire Birds were also shining brightly. When they landed on the ground, they had already turned into human form.
"Big Brother Ling, we finally sent you here. We didn't fly slowly, did we?" Feng Ling 'er, who had turned into human form, said to Ling Dong, who was slightly out of breath after wiping her fragrant sweat.
After three days and two nights of flying at high speed without any rest, Feng Ling 'er and Zhu Chitian were exhausted. Zhu Chitian, who had landed on the ground, felt hot air rising from his body. He didn't even have the energy to speak.
"Fast, faster than I expected! Let's go, let's find a place to rest first! "Ling Dong said casually.
Feng Ling 'er shook her head. "No, the houses in the clan have all been destroyed. We urgently need people to rebuild them. The Yan Clan doesn't have many people to begin with. At this time, we have to rush back to help!"
Feng Ling 'er then waved to Ling Dong and Qiu Qingyi. "Big Brother Ling, Big Sister Qiu, goodbye. Remember to come to Hundred Spirit Mountain to play when you have time …"
Her words had yet to land when a red light flashed and Feng Ling 'er once again soared into the sky. In the blink of an eye, she pierced through the clouds and disappeared. Zhu Chitian, on the other hand, was a little embarrassed as he nodded towards Ling Dong and also flew away.
This Zhu Chitian had spoken rudely to Ling Dong many times in the Blazing Sparrow Secret Realm. Ling Dong intended to make him suffer. However, he had worked hard to send them here, so he did not have any complaints. The little bit of unhappiness that had accumulated in the Blazing Sparrow Secret Realm had vanished like smoke.
"Senior Sister, I'm late again. I don't think it's a good thing. It's not convenient for you to follow me up. Why don't you return to True Kang Sect first? After Feng Ling 'er and Zhu Chitian left, Ling Dong thought for a while and suddenly said to Qiu Qingyi. "I'll go back and find you!"
These days, Qiu Qingyi's complexion was much better with the Flame Sparrow's feathers. Every day, as long as he hugged the Flame Sparrow Feather and rested for a while, the cold poison in his body would be completely suppressed.
Hearing Ling Dong's words, Qiu Qingyi suddenly froze. Then, she opened her beautiful eyes wide and stared at Ling Dong in a daze. She did not say a word and just stared at him like that. Her stare made Ling Dong's hair stand on end.
"Senior Sister, what's wrong with you?" Ling Dong asked in confusion.
"Sigh …" Qiu Qingyi sighed faintly. "Junior Brother, you sent me away. Is it because this trip to Heaven Receiving Peak to meet You Xing is extremely dangerous? Or are you afraid that I'll drag you down … "
Hearing Qiu Qingyi's words, Ling Dong laughed bitterly. He could not hide his little scheme from Qiu Qingyi.
"Senior Sister, it will be a little dangerous. This time, I'm late and have violated a taboo. However, at most, I'll be humiliated by You Xing and scolded a little. You say, if I bring you up, wouldn't it be like bringing another person along? "Ling Dong said bitterly.
Along the way, Ling Dong thought about why You Xingguan had specially summoned him, but he couldn't think of a reason. However, he was too late, so he was too late.
If Ling Dong was in You Xing's position, if there was someone who arrived late, Ling Dong would probably teach that person a lesson. Perhaps, he might even give that person a small punishment.
However, Ling Dong understood all of this and was mentally prepared. According to Bu Yangming, in order to become a Celestial Official of an auxiliary astral realm, one's cultivation had to at least break through the Transforming Star Realm and reach the Qui Star Realm.
Reaching the first level of the Qui Star Realm was the minimum requirement. Generally speaking, to become a Celestial Official of an auxiliary astral realm, one's cultivation had to be higher than the first level of the Qui Star Realm.
According to Bu Yangming's conversation with Ling Dong, most of the Celestial Official of an auxiliary astral realm were around the fourth or fifth level of the Qui Star Realm. Moreover, in the records of the Wood Puppet Realm, there were records of peak Qui Star Realm existences taking up the position of Celestial Official of an auxiliary astral realm.
Therefore, Ling Dong estimated that You Qianjun, the Celestial Official of the Tian Gang Continent, was at least at the fourth or fifth level of the Qui Star Realm.
In front of a fourth or fifth level of the Qui Star Realm, Ling Dong was like an ant. Therefore, Ling Dong's best choice was to endure the scolding and punishment.
"Junior Brother, this time, you came late because of me. If it wasn't for me …"
"Senior Sister, why are we still talking about this between us?" As he spoke, Ling Dong stretched out his long arms and pulled Qiu Qingyi into his embrace. He kissed Qiu Qingyi's forehead gently and said, "Be a good girl and wait for me at Zhen Gang Sect."
Qiu Qingyi blushed because of Ling Dong's affection. She shook her head firmly and said, "No, I'll wait for you at the foot of the mountain. When you come down, I'll go back with you!"
Ling Dong knew that it was hard to change Qiu Qingyi's mind once she had made up her mind. He didn't force her. Let her go down the mountain then. After a few more words of advice and settling Qiu Qingyi down, Ling Dong flew up into the sky and flew straight to the Sky Reaching Peak!
Now that Ling Dong was a Heaven Dipper Realm expert, he was able to fly. He didn't need to climb up the mountain step by step. He could directly fly to Heaven Reaching Peak to meet You Qianjun, You Xingguan.
The Sky Reaching Peak was very high above sea level. Its peak reached the sea of clouds. A few minutes later, Ling Dong had already passed through the white sea of clouds and was not far from the Heaven Receiving Platform of the Heaven Receiving Peak.
Ling Dong could see the crowd on the Sky Reaching Platform from afar. There were at least 40 to 50 people. There were only a dozen sects and forces in the Heaven Gang Continent that were qualified to meet You Xingguan.
Others are required to have a cultivation base in the Heavenly Dipper Realm Eighth Level martial artists, all gathered here.
As he flew closer, Ling Dong squeezed out a respectful smile on his face. He was ready to humble himself when he went over. However, when he was about to reach the Sky Reaching Platform, Ling Dong's expression changed.
He couldn't see the situation around the Sky Reaching Platform clearly because of the sea of clouds. Ling Dong vaguely saw a few black shadows swaying on the cliff of the Sky Reaching Platform from afar. Ling Dong thought that they were vines and didn't pay much attention to them.
However, when they flew closer, Ling Dong's eyes immediately widened. His complexion instantly became incomparably ugly.
The three swaying black shadows on the cliff of the Sky Reaching Platform weren't vines at all. They were three martial artists hanging from the cliff!
What made Ling Dong even angrier was that the three people hanging upside down on the cliff were none other than Tu Bai, Bu Yangming, and Chu Fangyue, who were qualified to meet the requirements to meet the new Star Official.
"Little Bai, Yangming, Senior Brother Chu, why are you guys hanging here?" Ling Dong asked anxiously as he flew to the side of the three people hanging upside down. As he spoke, Ling Dong's hand reached for the rope hanging the three people upside down. However, when his hand touched it, Ling Dong suddenly stopped!
"Brother Ling (Junior Brother), don't untie it!" Bu Yangming and Chu Fangyue tried to dissuade Ling Dong at almost the same time. When they saw Ling Dong's hand stop, the two of them heaved a sigh of relief.
"Brother Ling, quickly go and pay your respects to You Xingguan! His Excellency Xingguan is up there. He's angry because you're late! " Bu Yangming said loudly. However, he secretly transmitted a message to Ling Dong, "Brother Ling, be careful. This You Xingguan is not a good person. He doesn't care about the upper realm's True Xingguan Sect at all. However, Brother Ling, you have to bear with it …"
"I understand!" Hearing Bu Yangming's words, Ling Dong nodded heavily. This was also the reason why Ling Dong suddenly stopped when he put his hand on the rope.
If Ling Dong really untied the rope, he was afraid that he would have a death grudge with this newly appointed You Xingguan. He would be directly used by You Qianjun to establish his authority. Even the entire True Xingguan Sect would be destroyed soon!
Ling Dong understood that Tu Bai, Bu Yang Ming, and Chu Fangyue were probably used by this Celestial Official You Qian Jun to establish his prestige. If Ling Dong was in his place, he would've taken care of a few people to establish his prestige!
Taking a deep breath, Ling Dong restrained the anger in his eyes and on his face. His figure flashed and he went up to the Heaven Receiving Platform. After a brief glance, he strode toward the center of the Heaven Receiving Platform.
"Ling Dong of True Xingguan Sect is here to pay my respects to His Excellency Xingguan. Ling Dong is late. Please forgive me, His Excellency Xingguan!" After taking a few steps forward, Ling Dong saw a middle-aged man in black sitting on an extraordinary looking huge jade chair. He bowed and paid his respects.
This Xingguan was extremely easy to recognize. The powerful aura that suppressed all the experts on the Heaven Receiving Peak was enough for Ling Dong to recognize this Xingguan.
What surprised Ling Dong even more was that, except for a few people like Kui Xing Pavilion's Master, the rest of the martialists on the Heaven Receiving Platform were all kneeling there. Their expressions were extremely respectful. Even Kui Xing Pavilion's Master and the others were slightly bowing.
At this moment, Ling Dong somewhat understood what Bu Yangming meant when he said that the position of a Xingguan was precious and powerful! Once a Xingguan came, he would become the actual ruler of the entire Tian Gang Continent. His status was even greater than that of an emperor!
This kind of honorable status determined its value!
There was no sound!
There was not the slightest bit of sound! You Xingguan, who was sitting on the jade throne, seemed to be asleep. Or perhaps he was ignoring Ling Dong, completely ignoring Ling Dong.
Ling Dong had long expected such a blatant slap in the face, and he was mentally prepared for it. Therefore, Ling Dong was not angry. He just assumed a respectful posture and stood there with his back bowed, quietly waiting for this Xingguan to speak.
For the sake of True Gang Sect, for the sake of his family, Ling Dong had to endure!
An hour passed. Two hours passed. Four hours passed. Eight hours passed. It was only when the sky started to turn dark that You Xingguan let out a satisfied yawn and glanced sideways at Ling Dong!
"You are this world's most talented legendary martialist, Ling Dong?" You Xingguan's voice was cold and had a hint of sarcasm.
"I wouldn't dare. I am …"
"Kneel!"
Just as Ling Dong was speaking, You Xingguan suddenly let out an explosive shout. It was like a sudden clap of thunder that shook the souls of everyone present to the point that they trembled incessantly! (To be continued.)
