Chapter 2029: A Face Full Of BloodTranslator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

When the Sun Saint Energy on Duan Ling Tian’s body skyrocketed to its limit, the Saint Land disciples in the Fire Remuneration Palace saw something flashed before their eyes. It was Dong Lin who was charging toward Duan Ling Tian. At this moment, he was only a foot away from Duan Ling Tian.

Bang!

A loud explosion suddenly rang in the air at the crucial moment. Dong Lin had come to a halt before Duan Ling Tian. The sound of his feet landing on the ground was like a clap of thunder that shocked everyone.

At the same time, the Saint Land disciples in the Fire Remuneration Palace saw two cracks underneath Dong Lin’s feet.

The sound of people gasping sounded in the Fire Remuneration Palace.

Although the ground in the Fire Remuneration Palace was not as tough as the ground in the Death Arena in the Palace of Death, it was extremely tough since it was made from rare materials. It was extremely difficult for ordinary swords or sabers to leave their marks on it. However, Dong Lin’s feet had just left marks on the ground. Based on this, one could see how much force he had used when his feet had landed on the ground.

“That’s…” When Dong Lin had forcefully come to a halt, many Saint Land disciples who had sharp eyes could see that a handful of hair fell from Dong Lin’s forehead. The hair was cut evenly as though they had been cut using an extremely sharp weapon.

“Duan Ling Tian had already taken out his sword?” Many Saint Land disciples who had seen Duan Ling Tian casting the invisible sword technique before could not help but gasp again as they broke out in cold sweat.

At this moment, many people also noticed the beads of sweat on Dong Lin’s forehead. He was sweating profusely.

One could tell how frightened Dong Lin was just a moment ago. Otherwise, he would not have sweat so much!

“Duan Ling Tian cast his sword technique again?”

“Why didn’t I hear the sound of sword whistling the air?”

“Are you an idiot? That sound must have been overpowered by the sound that was caused by Elder Dong Lin’s feet landing on the ground. I was wondering why he would suddenly stop since he was so angry. As it turns out, Duan Ling Tian had cast his sword technique!”

“That handful of hair that fell from his forehead must have been cut by Duan Ling Tian. It’s obvious he’s sweating because he’s afraid. Looks like he wouldn’t be able to live if Duan Ling Tian intends to kill him!”

“Isn’t this a given?! Although Elder Dong Lin is quite strong, he’s not even a match for Wen Yan who’s ranked ninth on the True Ranking. How could he be a match for Duan Ling Tian?”

“He already knows he’s no match for Duan Ling Tian, but he still dares to make a move against Duan Ling Tian. I really admire his courage! It’s fortunate he managed to stop in time. Otherwise, I’m afraid it’s not his hair that would be cut, but his head!”

Although in the eyes of the Saint Land disciples in the Fire Remuneration Palace, it seemed as though Duan Ling Tian was merely standing still with his arms folded, they knew he had cast his formidable sword technique that caused Dong Lin to come to a halt immediately.

Barf!

At the same time, under the watchful gaze of the others, as Dong Lin’s sweat dripped continuously, his face turned red suddenly as he threw up a mouthful of blood.

The huge mouthful of blood was headed in Duan Ling Tian’s direction. Naturally, it did not contain any offensive force.

“Hurmph!” Duan Ling Tian snorted when he saw this and waved his sleeve. A piercingly cold energy swept out and sent the blood flying in the opposite direction, causing it to splash on Dong Lin’s face.

The sweat and blood on Dong Lin’s face mixed and dripped down his body, dyeing his robe red.

Although the patterns of the uniforms of an elder and a disciple in the Fire Worship Sect were very different, they were all white. For this reason, the blood looked extremely eye-catching.

Everyone in the Fire Remuneration Palace fell silent when they saw this.

‘How wretched!’

This was everyone’s thought when they looked at Dong Lin. Naturally, they did not pity him despite his wretched appearance. After all, he was the one who had taken the initiative to look for trouble with Duan Ling Tian.

If Dong Lin did not abuse his power and ban Duan Ling Tian from serving in the Enforcement Hall, none of this would have happened.

Dong Lin whose face was covered in blood felt extremely humiliated. He said angrily, “Duan Ling Tian! What the hell are you trying to do?!” His eyes were burning with hatred. If he could burn Duan Ling Tian with the fire in his eyes, Duan Ling Tian would have been burned to death!

“What am I trying to do?” Upon hearing his words, Duan Ling Tian was amused. “Elder Dong Lin, what do you think I’m trying to do? I don’t have any objection if you want to leave the Fire Remuneration Palace…” When Duan Ling Tian reached here, his tone suddenly changed. His voice turned cold as he said, “However, today, no matter what, you must say if I can accept the assignment from the Enforcement Hall or not before you leave! Didn’t you say that I’m not qualified to serve in the Enforcement Hall because I have a yellow Innate Spiritual Root? Now that I’ve proven I have a blue Innate Spiritual Root, am I qualified to serve in the Enforcement Hall?”

Upon hearing Duan Ling Tian’s words, Dong Lin was so enraged that he almost threw up blood again.

As a matter of fact, it did not really matter to Dong Lin if Duan Ling Tian served in the Enforcement Hall or not. He had even taken the initiative to seek reconciliation with Duan Ling Tian through Voice Transmission and guaranteed to recommend him to serve in the Enforcement Hall. He did not expect that not only was Duan Ling Tian not grateful, but he actually pushed him into a corner in front of so many people. It was obvious Duan Ling Tian wanted him to admit he was wrong with his earlier judgment. This was akin to slapping him on the face!

“Why? Don’t tell me you think there’s something wrong with the Spiritual Pearl in my hand, Elder Dong Lin?” Duan Ling Tian looked at the Spiritual Pearl in his hand and asked calmly when he saw Dong Lin keeping quiet for a long time, “If you think there’s something wrong with this Spiritual Pearl, you can always take out your Spiritual Pearl to check my Innate Spiritual Root, Elder Dong Lin! I believe that as an Enforcement Hall’s elder, you must have a Spiritual Pearl with you, right?”

Although Duan Ling Tian spoke calmly, his words sounded like claps of thunder when Dong Lin heard it. In his opinion, Duan Ling Tian wanted to push him onto the road of ruin!

If Dong Lin was uncertain earlier about Duan Ling Tian possessing a blue Innate Spiritual Root, he was completely certain now that Duan Ling Tian possessed a blue Innate Spiritual Root! Otherwise, he would not have acted so domineeringly.

“Moreover, if I’m not mistaken, you’ve just returned to the sect or came out from closed-door cultivation, right, Elder Dong Lin?” Duan Ling Tian was not angry even though Dong Lin was ignoring him. Instead, he changed the topic and asked Dong Lin about other things.

“How do you know that?” At this moment, Dong Lin was stunned by Duan Ling Tian’s words. He did not expect Duan Ling Tian would be able to guess that he only recently returned to the Fire Worship Sect.

“If you didn’t just return to the sect or come out out of closed-door cultivation, it’s impossible that you wouldn’t know I have a blue Innate Spiritual Root!” Duan Ling Tian explained patiently, “Perhaps most people in the Fire Worship Sect think I have a yellow Innate Spiritual Root. However, apart from the true disciples in serving in the Enforcement Hall, 90% of the people from the Enforcement Hall know that I have a blue Innate Spiritual Root. Those who are unaware are only those who have just come out of closed-door cultivation or weren’t present in the sect until recently.”

Duan Ling Tian’s words caused everyone in the Fire Remuneration Palace to fall silent again.

‘The people in the Enforcement Hall know he possesses a blue Innate Spiritual Root?’ Upon hearing Duan Ling Tian’s words, Dong Lin’s expression turned grim. At the same time, he turned to look glare at Chen Peng with killing intent, frightening him.

“Senior Brother Dong Lin, don’t listen to him! He’s spouting nonsense!” Chen Peng quickly refuted. “His Innate Spiritual Root was tested twice in front of my master. Both times he was found to possess a yellow Innate Spiritual Root. There’s no mistake about this!”

As soon as Chen Peng finished speaking, Duan Ling Tian turned to look at him and asked, “Chen Peng, if I’m not mistaken, you’ve also either recently came back to the sect or just came out of closed-door cultivation, right? In fact, you’ve not even seen your master, Li An, before you came to look for trouble with me, right?”

“Who’s looking for trouble with you? Don’t slander me!” Chen Peng said in panic when he heard Duan Ling Tian’s words. At the same time, an ominous feeling rose in his heart. This was because Duan Ling Tian was right. He had recently come out of closed-door cultivation, and he had not gone to see his master yet before he found Dong Lin to look for trouble with Duan Ling Tian. He had planned to see his master after he had gotten Duan Ling Tian into trouble so he could share this piece of good news with him and please him.

Naturally, Chen Peng was unaware that he would not be able to find his master, Li An, even if he had gone to look for him since he had gone to the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land!
