Chapter 2031 - Divine Blood Fruit
The Sovereign's Ascension
When Wang Muyanâs right arm was pulled away, leaving her with only her left hand to cover her body, her face became pale. She was finally afraid at this moment, with her lips trembling.
âYe Qingtian, the thought of taking your life has never crossed my mind!â Wang Muyan roared.
âShould I thank you for that, then? I wouldâve died in Xiao Jingyanâs hands if I wasn't this strong. So how do you want me to thank you?â Lin Yun burst into laughter.
âHmph! Donât take it too far and force me! Otherwise, it wonât end well for you!â Wang Muyan roared.
âI know,â Lin Yun replied.
âYou know?â Wang Muyan was surprised because she noticed Ye Qingtian wasnât surprised by what she said.
âThereâs a seal within your body. If you disregard your safety, I will also have to pay a price. But you can try it and bet whether I have more trump cards.â
Wang Muyan squinted her pupils and was really afraid now because she knew that Ye Qingtian wouldnât hesitate to move when he found the opportunity. As Lin Yun exerted more force with his right hand, Wang Muyanâs arm was pulled away, completely displaying her body before Lin Yun.
âArenât you a swordsman? How can you do something like this!â Wang Muyan said in a trembling tone.
âThatâs because you donât understand me.â Lin Yun grabbed her last remaining clothes, scaring Wang Muyan into despair. When she felt Lin Yunâs tug, Wang Muyan panicked.
But after Wang Muyan screamed, she noticed Lin Yun had retreated, and her clothes werenât ripped off. While she felt uneasy, a large cloak enveloped her as Ye Qingtianâs voice resounded, âSo you can also be afraid. Youâve been acting all long. Iâm curious about this âbeautifulâ past you had with Ye Qingtian.â
When Wang Muyan raised her head and saw that Ye Qingtian was looking at her with a playful gaze, she was furious because there was nothing more shameful than this moment. She roared with an ancient blood moon blazing within her pupils, âYe Qingtian, donât be smug! You can try it and see the consequences of provoking me!â
âYou donât have to scare me. If you could use the sealed power within your body, you wouldâve used it long ago,â Lin Yun said.
Wang Muyanâs face changed, and she asked, âYou couldâve killed me if you wanted to. So what do you want?â
âThatâs simple. I need you to swear an oath to the heavenly dao that you wonât do anything to harm Bai Shuqing and Profound Maiden Miao Yin within the Heavenly Dao Sect, and that you wonât provoke me in the future,â Lin Yun said.
âI can make the oath, but youâre also not allowed to provoke me,â Wang Muyan said.
âThat will have to depend on your performance,â Lin Yun replied.
âDonât take it too far!â Wang Muyan roared. But the moment she was done, Black Tortoise Chains flew out from Ye Qingtian and she became tied up by the nine chains. Wang Muyan was lifted into the air by the chains, and couldnât move, no matter how she struggled.
âYe Qingtian, what are you trying to do?!â The chains hurt as they dug into her skin, and blood appeared on her body.
âTeaching you a lesson. You donât have the right to talk back now,â Lin Yun replied. As dazzling lightning lit up on the chains, this made Wang Muyan scream out in pain.
âYe Qingtian! Iâll remember this!â Wang Muyan glared at Ye Qingtian, wanting to devour him.
âThis is nothing compared to what you did. You donât want to experience what Zhang Yue experienced, right?â Lin Yun asked.
Wang Muyanâs face changed, and she gritted her teeth, âOkay! I promise you!â
âMake the oath, then,â Lin Yun said.
The heavenly oath was terrifying, and no one dared to go against it within the Kunlun Realm. It was even more terrifying than Jian Jingtianâs oath. When Wang Muyan made the oath, Lin Yun removed the Black Tortoise Chains and Wang Muyan collapsed onto the ground.
âCan you let me leave now?â Wang Muyan sent a resentful look at Lin Yun.
âThereâ no need to hurry.â A silver azure dragon flew out from his sword heart and dragged Wang Muyan into the air. As Lin Yunâs hands began to change, he formed an ancient seal with nether energy gathering in his palm. The Netherflowerâs petals soon formed into chains that dug into Wang Muyanâs forehead, the Nether Shackles.
âWhat have you done?!â Wang Muyan fearfully rubbed her forehead.
âA small trick. It wonât do anything to you if you behave well. But if you dare to make a move, Iâll take your life even if heaven doesnât!â Lin Yun coldly looked at Wang Muyan.
Wang Muyan slowly got up from the ground with an ugly face, and she gritted her teeth, âYe Qingtian, this isnât over!â
âThatâs right. You can come at me if you want, but just donât regret it,â Lin Yun smiled.
Wang Muyan became even more furious upon seeing Ye Qingtianâs expression, and she said, âYou have no idea what youâve done today. You have committed blasphemy against a deity and will regret it!â
After she finished speaking, she quickly covered herself with the cloak and disappeared.
âThe Nether Shackles might not be able to threaten her for long. The power sealed within her body is so weird that it even made me feel afraid,â Lilâ Purple said from the sword box.
âIt doesnât need to last for that long. I wonât have that many concerns after reaching the Quasi-Saint Realm. By the way, do you know the power sealed within her body?â Lin Yun asked.
âI donât know, but sheâs not simple,â Lilâ Purple said. The reason why Lin Yun didnât kill Wang Muyan was because of her. Lilâ Purple told Lin Yun that if Wang Muyan really disregarded her safety, he might have to pay a huge price or even die here. But Wang Muyan seemed to be hesitating over whether she should bring out that power.
This was why Lin Yun let go of Wang Muyan after his consideration.
Whooshing could be heard as Xin Yan descended from the sky. She asked, âWang Muyan has left?â
âYeah,â Lin Yun nodded.
âI was worried that you might have killed her, so I followed you here. Now isnât the opportunity to kill her,â Xin Yan said, heaving a sigh in relief.
Lin Yun instantly understood what Xin Yan meant. Wang Muyan was the princess of the Wang Clan and the Divine Maiden of the Blood Moon Sect. So it would be troublesome if Lin Yun killed Wang Muyan.
âThere are already people suspicious of her identity, but there isnât any evidence, not to mention the Wang Clan has been protecting her,â Xin Yan said. âIf sheâs the Blood Moon Sectâs Divine Maiden, the Wang Clan must also be involved. You get what I mean, right?â
âI do.â This was the reason why Lin Yun let Wang Muyan go. The Heavenly Dao Sect might plunge into chaos if he alarmed his enemies.
The next day, the Heavenly Dao Sectâs party safely returned to the sect. Ye Qingtian had now become an influential figure within Eastern Desolation, and no one dared to speak badly of him within the sect. Furthermore, his results on the Celestial Purging Mountain were revealed not long after Ye Qingtian left, which caused a huge uproar within the sect. But before everyone could digest that information, they heard that Ye Qingtian killed Jin Xuanyi and a Quasi-Saint, and seized the Divine Blood Flower.
The information this time shook the entire sect, and Ye Qingtianâs reputation was just below that of the Dao Yang Holy Son now. But Lin Yun didnât care about that and went to see the Serene Dust Great Saint when he returned. He told the Serene Dust Great Saint everything about what happened within the Myriad Graves Valley with his focus being on Wang Muyan.
âYou did the right thing by not killing her. Otherwise, it will become troublesome,â the Serene Dust Great Saint said with a grave expression.
Lin Yun was briefly stunned upon seeing this and asked, âEven you have your concerns about this?â
The Serene Dust Great Saint heaved a sigh of relief. She then said, âThe current Heavenly Dao Sect might seem to be the strongest holy land within Eastern Desolation with the Divine Phoenix Mountain comparable to us, but thereâs an undercurrent within the Heavenly Dao Sect since long ago. The Wang Clan has an unclear relationship with the Blood Moon Sect, the Ye Clan has a connection with the Divine Dragon Empire, and the Zhang Clan has connections with the Demon Gate. Only the Bai Clan is relatively clean in comparison to the other three clans, but thatâs only ârelativelyâ.â
Lin Yun widened his mouth when he heard that from the Serene Dust Great Saint.
âThe Dao Sword and Heavenly Swordâs lineage arenât going to interfere in this matter?â Lin Yun frowned.
The Serene Dust Great Saint said, âThey wonât interfere. After all, the Heavenly Dao Sect was in an even more complicated situation throughout its history, and there are even cases of the sect being laid to ruins. But the sect would rise again when the sect master appears.â
Lin Yun didnât say anything because he didnât know what to say. There must be a reason why the Heavenly Dao Sect could exist for so long, and he couldnât poke his nose into this matter with his current cultivation.
âBut you donât have to worry because the Wang Clan canât do anything with those two lineages around,â the Serene Dust Great Saint comforted.
âCanât they get rid of the threat beforehand?â Lin Yun asked.
âYou foolish brat. Are you saying that youâre the only one who has noticed a problem with the Wang Clan? Many people have long noticed it, but this problem has been within the Heavenly Dao Sect for a long time. All the schemes will be resolved when a new sect master is born,â the Serene Dust Great Saint smiled.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âWho can become the sect master, then?â Lin Yun asked.
âAnyone as long as theyâre not afraid of death and are capable of bearing âheavenly daoâ on their shoulders,â the Serene Dust Great Saint smiled. âYou can try it after reaching the Saint Realm, if you want.â
But Lin Yun shook his head when he heard that; he still didnât want to die. Heavenly dao wasnât something that just anyone could bear or the sect master wouldâve appeared long ago.
âIâll talk to the Dragon Origin Great Saint about it when he returns, so you donât have to get involved in it,â the Serene Dust Great Saint said.
Lin Yun nodded his head before asking, âDo you know where my master went?â
âHe didnât tell you about it?â The Serene Dust Great Saint asked in a surprised tone.
âNo.â Lin Yun shook his head.
The Serene Dust Great Saint instantly became speechless, before she said, âHeâs really reckless. He went to the Divine Dragon Void Sea to search for a Divine Blood Fruit in order to help you achieve the Azure Dragon Divine Physique.â
Lin Yun widened his mouth in shock when he heard that. The Divine Blood Fruit was rare, and it was grown in places that were dangerous even to Saint Realm experts. He could tell how terrifying the Divine Dragon Void Sea was just by hearing the name. Most importantly, he already had a Divine Blood Fruit with him!
