Chapter 3309: The Palace Master of the Heavenly Pool Palace
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
As soon as Duan Ling Tian finished speaking, Lu Ji, his Second Senior Brother, stepped forward and solemnly said, “Senior Xuan Tian, everyone in the Heavenly Pool Palace has long known about this battle. If you don’t want Han Yun Jin to die, you should’ve stopped him from challenging my Little Junior Brother in the first place. You could’ve even stopped him from showing up in the Prodigy Arena today. However, you waited until he’s about to intervene; don’t you think it’s inappropriate?” His expression turned grave at the end of his words.
Although the others did not speak up, all of them looked at the Profound Heaven Celestial Emperor with dissatisfied expressions on their faces.
The old man glanced at Duan Ling Tian briefly before he raised his hand and rescued Han Yun Jin.
At this moment, the Sword Trial Pavilion elder cupped his fists together and said, “My lord, the Sword Trial Pavilion is the judge of today’s battle. If Duan Ling Tian were the one’s defeated today, I don’t think you would’ve intervened, right?” Although a hint of fear could be seen in his eyes, he mustered all his courage to speak up.
“Did I allow you to speak?” The old man looked at the elder indifferently as a powerful energy shot out and pushed the elder back, causing the elder to stumble.
The elder spat out a mouthful of blood immediately, and his energy visibly weakened.
The Heavenly Pool Palace disciples gasped. They whispered among themselves fervently. Although they disagreed with the Profound Heaven Celestial Emperor’s actions, there was nothing they could say or do.
“It seems like the Profound Heaven Celestial Emperor is determined to save his disciple.”
“Han Yun Jin has been his disciple for a very long time, right? Moreover, he’s the Profound Heaven Celestial Emperor’s most outstanding disciple. It’s not surprising that the Profound Heaven Celestial Emperor couldn’t stand and watch him die.”
“The Profound Heaven Celestial Emperor is too arrogant.”
“Well, the Profound Heaven Celestial Emperor has the strength to be arrogant.”
At this moment when everyone thought Han Yun Jin would be able to keep his life…
“Xuan Tian, since it’s a life-or-death battle, you shouldn’t intervene.”
A voice echoed from the distance. It was hard to discern if it was a man or woman’s voice. However, there’s no doubt the person who spoke was drawing closer.
Upon hearing the voice, the old man’s expression changed slightly. Then, he cupped his fists together and bowed in the air. “Greetings, Palace Master.”
As soon as he finished speaking, three figures appeared in the distance. The two figures at the back belonged to Xu Lang, the Verdant Prairie Celestial Emperor, and Lei Ying, the Merciless Celestial Emperor. The person in the lead was a dignified middle-aged man with a jade-like complexion dressed in a long white robe. This man was none other than You Feng Yu, the First Trial Celestial Emperor. He was also the strongest titled Celestial Emperor in the Heavenly Pool Palace. It was said that even if the Profound Heaven Celestial Emperor and the Cold Gloom Celestial Emperor joined forces, they were still not a match for him. Although this was not confirmed, based on the Profound Heaven Celestial Emperor’s reaction now, it was possible there was a grain of truth in the rumor.
“Teacher?” Duan Ling Tian was slightly taken aback when he first saw Xu Lang. After a moment, he figured Xu Lang must have predicted that the Profound Heaven Celestial Emperor would intervene. Xu Lang must have looked for the Palace Master of the Heavenly Pool Palace with Lei Ying before inviting the Palace Master of the Heavenly Pool Palace here.
“Greetings, Palace Master!”
After the Profound Heaven Celestial Emperor bowed and greeted You Feng Yu, everyone followed suit and greeted him. Many of them were excited as though they had just seen their idol. After all, it was their first time seeing the Palace Master of the Heavenly Pool Palace.
“I didn’t expect to be able to see our Palace Master today!”
“After joining the Heavenly Pool Palace for more than 1,000 years, this is the first time I’m seeing the Palace Master.”
“What’s so great about 1,000 years? I’ve been in the Heavenly Pool Palace for more than 4,000 years, and this is also my first time seeing the Palace Master.”
“So, should we be grateful to Duan Ling Tian and Han Yun Jin for this opportunity?”
“No, you should be thankful to the Profound Heaven Celestial Emperor. If he didn’t intervene, we wouldn’t be able to see the Palace Master today!”
…
Meanwhile, You Feng Yu looked at Xuan Tian, the Profound Heaven Celestial Emperor, and calmly asked, “Xuan Tian, do you have any objections to the words I said?” Despite the calmness of his voice, it was filled with unmistakable authority. It made one feel as though they could not defy him.
The old man inhaled deeply before he solemnly replied, “Since the Palace Master has spoken, I’ve no other objection.” After that, he cupped his fists together at You Feng Yu before he said again, “Palace Master, if there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave.”
After You Feng Yu nodded slightly, Xuan Tian seemed to turn into a streak of light before he vanished in front of everyone’s eyes.
Following that, You Feng Yu shifted his gaze to Duan Ling Tian after he glanced at the despairing Han Yun Jin. “You’re Duan Ling Tian?” Without waiting for Duan Ling Tian’s reply, he glanced at Xu Lang and said, “Xu Lang, you’re lucky to have such a talented student.”
“Palace Master.” Duan Ling Tian nodded slightly in response to You Feng Yu.
“Since this is a life-or-death battle, leave the Prodigy Arena only after the life or death has been decided.” You Feng Yu left in a blink of an eye after leaving these words behind.
Xu Lang and Lei Ying did not stay as well and soon left.
After You Feng Yu left, the awestruck disciples could not help but gush about him.
“The Palace Master is so cool! He made the Profound Heaven Celestial Emperor leave in just a sentence.”
“That’s a matter of course. The Palace Master is the master of a heaven-grade force in the Boundless Heaven’s Boundless territory. Not only did he fuse a few two-profundity fusions, but he has also fused three profundities. He’s not inferior to the top titled Celestial Emperors in the Boundless Heaven.”
“The Profound Heaven Celestial Emperor is strong, but he’s no match for the Palace Master.”
The disciples were still excitedly discussing You Feng Yu when a miserable cry caught their attention.
Duan Ling Tian was staring coldly at Han Yun Jin who was restrained by the branches of the pine Willow Divine Tree at this moment. With just a thought, the branches tightened themselves around Han Yun Jin, killing him.
“Eldest Senior Brother!” Zhao Ji Lie and Wu Quan cried in unison with grim expressions on their faces. They had been relieved when their master showed up, certain that their Eldest Senior Brother would live. Who knew the Verdant Prairie Celestial Emperor and the Merciless Celestial Emperor would invite the Palace Master of the Heavenly Pool Palace over? With the Palace Master’s presence, how could their master do anything? However, despite being mentally prepared, they were still deeply affected by Han Yun Jin’s death.
Although Han Yun Jin was a bully to outsiders and was despicable in some of his actions, he had always been good to his people. Therefore, there were people who genuinely mourned his death.
“It’s finally over.”
The Heavenly Pool Palace disciples felt chills running up their spines as they watched Duan Ling Tian kill Han Yun Jin. When they regained their senses, they looked at Duan Ling Tian with horrified expressions on their faces.
“Is Duan Ling Tian really just a Five Elements Celestial Lord?”
“How can a Five Elements Celestial Lord kill a Celestial Emperor who had comprehended all the profundities to the mastery stage and fused the Explosion Profundity and the Corrosive Profundity? I’d never believe it if I didn’t witness it with my eyes!”
“That’s right. Who would have thought that with such a huge gap between their cultivation bases, he’s still able to kill Han Yun Jin?”
“Hey, doesn’t this mean that Duan Ling Tian has now replaced Han Yun Jin as one of the top five prodigious disciples in the Heavenly Pool Palace! Wow, with this, two of Xu Lang’s prodigious disciples are two of the top five prodigious disciples in the Heavenly Pool Palace.”
“The Verdant Prairie Celestial Emperor is really a winner in life! Not only is his daughter monstrously talented, but his two prodigious disciples are monstrously talented as well.”
Upon hearing the conversations in his surroundings, Duan Ling Tian was even more eager to meet his Eldest Senior Sister. ‘I wonder what Eldest Senior Sister is like?’
All Duan Ling Tian knew about his Eldest Senior Sister so far was that she was incredibly protective of her juniors, but she would tease them and complain about them being useless and talented. Most importantly, it was said that her strength was comparable to a titled Celestial Emperor.
Meanwhile, Lei Jun who was standing behind a group of disciples scoffed as he watched as Duan Ling Tian returned to Huan’er and his seniors’ sides. His gaze turned colder when he saw the woman he yearned for holding on to Duan Ling Tian’s arms. ‘I didn’t expect him to be so strong. It seems like it’s going to be difficult to get rid of him. I should lay low first. If Dugu Wu doesn’t complete the mission, I’ll have to think of another way to kill him.’
