Chapter 1939: The Contingency Plan

“I, Yang Chong, the fifth elder of Northern Plethora Sect’s Fifth Elder, will keep my words!” Yang Chong’s eyes gleamed murderously when he finished speaking. Then, he looked at Duan Ling Tian again with a sneer before he turned around to leave.

It was just as he had said. If Duan Ling Tian was a Fire Worship Sect’s disciple with a high innate talent, he would not have dared to threaten him with his family and friends since it would offend the Fire Worship Sect. However, Duan Ling Tian was merely an ordinary Fire Worship Sect’s disciple with a yellow Innate Spiritual Root.

Even if he was threatened in such a way, the Fire Worship Sect would not do anything for him, especially when the other party was the fifth elder of the Northern Plethora Sect, a first-rate force in the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land!

“Hurmph!” After Yang Chong left, Li An also looked at Duan Ling Tian coldly before he chased after Yang Chong. However, he did not dare to say anything else. Despite being a First Silver Flame Elder, he still could not bear the heavy crime of colluding with an outsider to harm a sect member.

“Senior Brother Ling Tian, good job!” After Li An left with Yang Chong, people burst into an uproar. Many people gave Duan Ling Tian a thumbs-up.

Duan Ling Tian’s outburst had delighted them! Naturally, there were also some disciples who did not say anything and merely looked at him with a worried expression. They had noticed that Duan Ling Tian’s expression had turned grave. They knew Yang Chong was serious about his threat.

“It seems like Senior Brother Duan Ling Tian is not a lone wolf! Otherwise, he wouldn’t feel bothered when Yang Chong said he was going to harm his family and friends.”

“Yang Chong’s threat is indeed unreasonable. Even if Senior Brother Duan Ling Tian has a high innate talent and is highly regarded by the Fire Worship Sect, Yang Chong might not openly threaten him, but he would still secretly try and harm his family and friends!”

“If Duan Ling Tian has friends and family, then Yang Chong’s threats are indeed a little scary.”

“Ruthless! He’s just too ruthless!”

“As the saying goes, ‘One should never target family members’! Yang Chong has really crossed the line!”

The Black Turtle Sanctum’s disciples whispered among themselves as they looked at Duan Ling Tian with a hint of pity in their eyes.

In their opinion, if Duan Ling Tian really had friends and family, Yang Chong’s threat was indeed very fearsome.

Duan Ling Tian did not move at all as he stood in the sky as various expressions flitted across his face.

Currently, Yang Chong’s threat was ringing in his ears continuously. “That’s right! If you continue to hide in the Fire Worship Sect, I, Yang Chong, won’t be able to touch you, but can you guarantee that your friends and family have a backing that can deter me? I believe that with the network of intelligence of the Northern Plethora Sect and my strength, it won’t be difficult for me to find out about your background. It’s unfortunate that you didn’t kill yourself in ten breaths and gave up on the chance to protect your friends and family. I really feel sad for them for having such a friend and family member like you! Duan Ling Tian, even if you hide in the Fire Worship Sect forever, I’ll make sure you suffer from the pain of losing all of your friends and family! I, Yang Chong, the Northern Plethora Sect’s fifth Elder, will keep my words!”

Duan Ling Tian knew Yang Chong was serious.

After a while, Duan Ling Tian finally regained his senses. Under the watchful eyes of the others, he returned to his Secundus house and disappeared from everyone’s sights.

Only then did the Black Turtle Sanctum’s disciples began gradually disperse.

However, even as they left, they were still discussing about Duan Ling Tian and Yang Chong’s threat.

As the fifth elder of the Northern Plethora Sect, he was certainly capable of harming Duan Ling Tian’s friends and family! There was no doubt about this.

“Serves you right!” Standing at the door of another Secundus house, Zhang Ji’s body trembled as he leaned against the door frame. Although his body was still in pain, he took pleasure in watching Yang Chong threatening Duan Ling Tian.

Duan Ling Tian had completely humiliated him when he defeated him today. From then on, he had regarded him as his enemy. He would not rest until one of them died. If he had a chance in the future, he would definitely kill Duan Ling Tian.

He believed that since he had a dark green Innate Spiritual Root, it would be very easy for him surpass Duan Ling Tian who only had a yellow Innate Spiritual Root.

One could imagine that if Zhang Ji knew that Duan Ling Tian also had a dark green Innate Spiritual Root, his expression would be very dramatic.

Duan Ling Tian’s expression was still very grave after he returned to his house.

However, as time went by, he began to calm down again.

“Yang Chong! How despicable!” Duan Ling Tian cursed loudly after he took a deep breath. At the same time, a murderous aura emitted out of his body, causing the temperature in the surroundings to drop a few degrees.

At this moment, Duan Ling Tian was extremely furious.

He did not expect that Yang Chong, the fifth elder of the Northern Plethora Sect, a first-rate sect in the Upper Province, would announce in front of a crowd that he would harm his family and friends.

He felt extremely stifled since he could not vent his anger.

‘However, I think it won’t be that easy for Yang Chong to investigate my background since I’m not from the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land.’ Duan Ling Tian sighed in relief when he thought about this.

Naturally, he knew this would only stall Yang Chong for a while.

Although he’s not from the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land, since he used to possess the Devilseal Tablet, many people in the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land had heard of his name. Not only that, but many of them had his portrait as well.

‘It’s a good thing this is not my real appearance!’ When Duan Ling Tian recalled he was in disguise, he could not help but feel he had incredible foresight.

Naturally, it’s possible that Yang Chong would go to the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land to investigate and find out that he was the Young Mansion Master of the quasi third-rate force, the Azure Cloud Mansion!

With Yang Chong’s identity, it was only a matter of time before he found out about Duan Ling Tian’s background.

He could imagine if Yang Chong found out about his connection to the Azure Cloud Mansion in the Lower Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land, there would definitely be a bloodbath.

His father, mother, wife, son, and everyone he cared about would die without a grave!

Duan Ling Tian trembled in fear when he thought about this. His emotion that had calmed down was in turmoil again at this moment.

“The most important thing now is to solve all the hidden danger. I must hide all information that can reveal my background!” After Duan Ling Tian forced himself to calm down again, he immediately contacted Elder Huo and asked anxiously, “Elder Huo, do you have any Secret Tactic or something that can withstand the Soul Searching Secret Tactic?”

The thing that Duan Ling Tian worried about was the Soul Searching Secret Tactic!

If he was careless and Yang Chong or Li An managed to catch him and perform the Soul Searching Secret Tactic on him, he would definitely reveal his background! He obviously did not want this to happen!

Even if he was being super cautious, it would be hard to prevent this from happening. For this reason, he asked for help from Elder Huo.

No matter if Elder Huo had such techniques that could withstand the Soul Searching Secret Tactic or not, he had to stay optimistic. He had to find a way to solve this problem.

He was extremely anxious as he waited for Elder Huo’s answer.

“I have!” Duan Ling Tian was delighted when he heard Elder Huo’s reply. He had a happy expression on his face.

Then, Elder Huo’s voice resonated once again. “However, to master that Secret Tactic, you must drain your Spiritual Energy continuously for it to be effective. If you stop using your Spiritual Energy to operate it for three days, it would lose its effect. The Secret Tactic doesn’t require a high requirement from the user. It only needs Spiritual Energy that’s at the Divine Saint Stage or above.”

“I must constantly drain a certain amount Spiritual Energy to keep it running?” In Duan Ling Tian’s opinion, if he could temporarily keep his friends and family safe, this was not a problem for him at all.

“The effect will only last three days at most after it has stopped running?” This was more than enough for him.

Even if Li An and Yang Chong wanted to perform the Soul Searching Secret Tactic on him, they would definitely make it quick and would not drag it out for long.

They, especially Li An, would not want anyone to discover this after all.

If somebody found out that he had performed the Soul Searching Secret Tactic on his own sect’s disciple for no reason, he would definitely be severely punished or even expelled by the Fire Worship Sect if this news!

“Elder Huo, please pass that Secret Tactic to me!” Duan Ling Tian hurriedly said to Elder Huo.

He was desperate to get his hands on that Secret Tactic! To him, this would be able to save his family and friends in the Lower Province.

When Elder Huo saw how anxious Duan Ling Tian was, he immediately transmitted the information regarding the Secret Tactic to Duan Ling Tian so that he can master it.

Just as Elder Huo had said, this Secret Tactic did not have a high requirement. It would be able to operate on Spiritual Energy that was at the Divine Stage or above.

For this reason, it only took Duan Ling Tian 15 minutes to successfully master it and protect his soul from the Soul Searching Secret Tactic.

“The continual depletion of the Spiritual Energy is still acceptable.” Duan Ling Tian sighed in relief when he noticed the Secret Tactic did not deplete too much of his Spiritual Energy and did not affect him much.

“It’s time for me to look for Senior Brother Gu Li and Palace Master Zhu. I must teach them this Secret Tactic as well! Otherwise, if Li An and Yang Chong perform the Soul Searching Secret Tactic on them, my background would be exposed!” At the same time, Duan Ling Tian recalled Gu Li who was in the Vermilion Bird Sanctum and Zhu Lu Qi who was in the White Tiger Sanctum.
