Chapter 4173: Two Rewards
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Advanced Emperors of Gods were considered strong in the Righteous Divine Kingdom. Even then, the royal family of the Righteous Divine Kingdom had captured and imprisoned many hunters, who were advanced Emperors of Gods. Some were personally captured by Zhu Ying Jun, the Lord of the Righteous Divine Kingdom, and some were captured by his subordinates.
For someone like Zhu Ying Jun, an advanced Emperor of Gods was nothing. He had no opinion about lending one of the two people in front of him an advanced Emperor of Gods to be used as stakes in a bet. After all, one of the two people was a long-time subordinate of his, a senior mansion master, and the other person, the new interim Mansion Master of the Divine Spirit Mansion, was monstrously talented with high potential and had promised to break through into the realm of a Supreme God in the Righteous Divine Kingdom.
Duan Ling Tian looked at Sun Yi Yu and smiled slightly as he asked, “The Lord has already spoken. Mansion Master Sun, are you willing to bet with me?”
Sun Yi Yu frowned. He did not respond to Duan Ling Tian immediately. He was not a reckless man. Since Duan Ling Tian dared to propose a bet, it was obvious that Duan Ling Tian felt confident even if he did not know where Duan Ling Tian got his confidence from. After all, Duan Ling Tian was just a rudimentary Emperor of Gods. However, his instincts told him that something was amiss.
If Sun Yi Yu lost, Zhu Ying Jun would lend him an advanced Emperor of Gods to give to Duan Ling Tian. There was no doubt that he would have to pay Zhu Ying Jun back in the future. Even if he could not capture an advanced Emperor of Gods to return to Zhu Ying Jun, he would still have to find a way to repay the debt using other means. As for not repaying the debt, he did not think about it nor did he dare to think about it.
Seeing that Sun Yi Yu was a little hesitant, Duan Ling Tian seized the chance to provoke Sun Yi Yu. “What’s the matter? Mansion Master, don’t tell me you don’t dare to bet with me. You keep saying I don’t live up to my reputation and that I only managed to kill an advanced Emperor of gods due to luck. Don’t tell me you think that you’re no match for me now?”
Although Sun Yi Yu knew Duan Ling Tian was deliberately provoking him, he was still annoyed. As a result, he agreed to bet with Duan Ling Tian. He had also prepared himself for the worst. Even if he lost and would be in debt, he did not want to admit defeat to Duan Ling Tian at this moment.
Sun Yi Yu said with a sneer, “Who said I don’t dare to bet with you? I was just thinking… If an interim mansion master like you loses and carries such a debt, won’t it be difficult for you to repay your debt to His Majesty?”
Duan Ling Tian smiled and said indifferently, “Mansion Master Sun, there’s no need for you to worry about me. Instead of worrying about me, you should worry about yourself.”
As soon as Duan Ling Tian’s voice fell, he vanished from sight.
Sun Yi Yu charged over when Duan Ling Tian reappeared again, but Duan Ling Tian quickly teleported away again as soon as he appeared.
The mansion masters who were watching the fight were surprised.
“Double Teleportation Profundity!” Th1s chapter is updated by n)ovel/\bin/\
“A rudimentary Emperor of Gods actually comprehended the Double Teleportation Profundity?! His comprehension skills are amazing!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAlthough the mansion masters had long heard about the strength of the interim Mansion Master of the Divine Spirit Mansion and that he killed an advanced Emperor of Gods, they had only seen the fight through Floating Mirror Images, after all. Moreover, Duan Ling Tian had ended the fight with just a strike without any unnecessary moves. It was only natural that they were surprised when they saw Duan Ling Tian teleporting twice in a row, causing Sun Yi Yu to be unable to catch up with him. If they had not witnessed this with their own eyes, they would not have believed that Duan Ling Tian was just a rudimentary Emperor of Gods.
Sun Yi Yu scoffed. He did not seem affected that he could not catch up with Duan Ling Tian. Instead, he said, “If running away is all you know, then keep running. Although the Double Teleportation Profundity is indeed amazing, don’t forget that you’re just a rudimentary Emperor of Gods.”
Following that, Sun Yi Yu made a move again.
Duan Ling Tian cast the Double Teleportation Profundity a few times, but Sun Yi Yu gradually caught up to him. After being chased by Sun Yi Yu for more than a dozen breaths, a faint smile suddenly appeared on his face. Those who were familiar with him would know that this was his ‘wicked’ smile.
‘Sun Yi Yu is now used to me teleporting away… If I suddenly stop doing so, he’ll definitely be thrown off…’
Duan Ling Tian cast the Double Teleportation Profundity another time, and the distance between him and Sun Yi Yu grew shorter.
Sun Yi Yu stared at Duan Ling Tian intently, preparing to make a move as soon as Duan Ling Tian teleported again. Based on the current trend, he would be able to catch up to Duan Ling Tian after Duan Ling Tian cast the Double Teleportation Profundity a few more times. At that time, Duan Ling Tian would no longer be able to escape from him.
However, contrary to Sun Yi Yu’s expectations, Duan Ling Tian did not teleport away this time. He was caught off guard. He had been certain that Duan Ling Tian would teleport away again; he had been subconsciously conditioned by Duan Ling Tian’s earlier actions to expect this.
When Sun Yi Yu momentarily let down his guard, a colorful sword ray shot toward him. Since he was an advanced Emperor of Gods, although he reacted a beat too late, he was still able to bring out his prominent divine artifact with a complete artifact soul and block the attack. However, since he had defended himself in a haste, he did not manage to defend himself using all his might. As such, Duan Ling Tian’s colorful sword ray easily crushed his defenses before injuring him and sending him flying back.
Swoosh!
Duan Ling Tian teleported and reappeared in front of the injured Sun Yi Yu.
At this time, the space around Sun Yi Yu restrained him as another colorful sword ray shot toward him before it came to a stop in front of him, looking like it would kill him at any moment.
Sun Yi Yu coughed up blood before he looked at Duan Ling Tian with a sour expression and said, “You’re cheating!”
Sun Yi Yu had witnessed Duan Ling Tian’s strength, and he knew that even if he was not distracted earlier, he would not have been a match for Duan Ling Tian. Nonetheless, he still felt very unwilling. If he was not distracted, at the very least, he would not have lost so miserably.
After Sun Yi Yu’s voice fell, and before Duan Ling Tian could respond, the other mansion masters shook their heads, thinking that Sun Yi Yu was a sore loser.
How could Sun Yi Yu say that Duan Ling Tian was cheating? There were no rules in a fight. Sun Yi Yu could only blame himself for being careless and failing to guard against Duan Ling Tian.
They were also very observant and were aware that Duan Ling Tian’s trick was, in fact, unnecessary. Duan Ling Tian would have still been able to defeat Sun Yi Yu even without using a trick.
“Although Duan Ling Tian tricked Sun Yi Yu, lulling him into a false sense of security, based on the strength he had shown, he’d still be able to defeat Sun Yi Yu without resorting to a trick…”
“He’s really amazing. I can’t believe he’s just a rudimentary Emperor of Gods. It’s really shocking!”
“It’s the first time I’ve seen such a terrifying rudimentary Emperor of Gods.”
While the others were discussing among themselves, Zhu Ying Jun smiled and said, “Mansion Master Duan won this fight. Congratulations, Mansion Master Duan.”
Since this was a public occasion, Zhu Ying Jun naturally did not address Duan Ling Tian as ‘Brother Ling Tian’ as he did privately.
While Sun Yi Yu returned to his seat with a dark expression on his face, Zhu Ying Jun looked at his subordinate, who was standing next to the advanced Emperor of Gods, meaningfully and nodded.
The subordinate quickly lifted the restriction on the old advanced Emperor of Gods.
In just a moment, life returned to the old man’s eyes, and he quickly recovered his senses. His expression changed drastically when he discovered the situation he was in. In just a moment, his Divine Energy surged in his body as he prepared to flee.
Swoosh!
Alas, Duan Ling Tian was faster than the old man.
A colorful sword ray shot out in the air and landed on the old man’s head, instantly killing the old man. He did not even get a chance to release his Divine Energy before he died.
Following that, a beam of light shone down on the purple-clad Duan Ling Tian.
At the same time, the mansion masters exclaimed in shock.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“His attack speed is so fast!”
“His speed is on a different level! Is it possible that he has 99 perfect Heavenly Veins?”
The more Heavenly Veins one possessed, the faster one would be able to mobilize one’s Divine Energy. As a result, one’s attack speed would also be faster. There was not much difference in having 99 ordinary Heavenly Veins and 98 ordinary Heavenly Veins. However, having 99 perfect Heavenly Veins was a completely different matter.
Duan Ling Tian’s attack speed was so shockingly fast that many of them began to wonder if he possessed 99 perfect Heavenly Veins.
“If he has 99 Heavenly Veins, then it’ll explain how he, a rudimentary Emperor of Gods, managed to kill an advanced Emperor of Gods. Someone I knew in the past possessed 99 Heavenly Veins as well. After stabilizing his cultivation base in the realm of an intermediate Emperor of Gods, he managed to kill an advanced Emperor of Gods. However, it has to be said that the advanced Emperor of Gods he killed was one of the weakest ones.”
Another mansion master shook his head and said, “Regardless, that person is still much weaker than Mansion Master Duan…”
Watching Duan Ling Tian fight with their own eyes was naturally different from watching through a Floating Image Pearl. It was only natural that everyone was shocked.
At this time, Zhu Ying Jun kept his word and lent Sun Yi Yu an advanced Emperor of Gods to give to Duan Ling Tian.
Swoosh!
Duan Ling Tian moved quickly and ended the life of the advanced Emperor of Gods.
Just like before, a beam of light shone down on Duan Ling Tian.
‘When I return, I’ll absorb the energy from the rewards I received from killing two advanced Emperors of Gods. I’ve taken another big step closer to the realm of an intermediate Emperor of Gods,’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself, feeling slightly emotional.
After seeing Duan Ling Tian and Fang Xiong Lei being rewarded one after another, the mansion masters were green with envy. Then, they turned to look at Zhu Ying Jun eagerly.
Zhu Ying Jun smiled and continued the game. Rewarding the mansion masters with advanced Emperors of Gods was indeed just a game to him. He tossed the jade tokens out again.
‘Hmm?’
Duan Ling Tian’s expression turned slightly strange when he looked at the jade token in his hand. He had obtained the ‘move’ jade token again.
At this time, a young mansion master rose to his feet and looked around as he asked, “Who has the other ‘move’ jade token?”
The other mansion masters looked at the young mansion master enviously as they shook their heads. Soon enough, their expressions froze when they saw Duan Ling Tian rising to his feet.
‘Is this a joke? The interim Mansion Master of the Divine Spirit Mansion obtained the ‘move’ jade token again?!’
