Chapter 946: Hu Fei’s Death Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Duan Ling Tian flashed toward Hu Fei with the Devilseal tablet under his feet. He stared at Hu Fei as he hovered in the space above him.

“Hu Fei!”

Duan Ling Tian’s eyes were overflowing with an intention to kill Hu Fei.

Hu Fei’s face changed when he saw Duan Ling Tian arrived before him in just a blink of an eye. He shouted anxiously at once, “Duan Ling Tian…You…You shouldn’t kill me!You shouldn’t kill me!!” It was as if he was afraid Duan Ling Tian would strike him down before he finished his sentence.

“Shouldn’t kill you?”

After Duan Ling Tian heard what Hu Fei said, he sneered. “What’s your reason?”

Duan Ling Tian had intended to kill Hu Fei for quite some time now. The danger and threat Zi Shang brought to him previously had made him realized the importance of nipping a problem in the bud.

If he had killed Zi Shang during the battle of the ‘Two-Year Pact’ at the summit of Dubhe Peak on Seven Star Sword Sect, all the subsequent event caused by Zi Shang would not have happened.

Hu Fei made him feel extremely threatened. He knew that as long as Hu Fei was alive, he would definitely become another Zi Shang in the future.

Duan Ling Tian realized that he needed to kill Hu Fei when he noticed Hu Fei’s vicious gaze toward him when they were outside. If left unattended, Hu Fei would become a big problem to him in the future.

Duan Ling Tian was still standing on the Devilseal Tablet. He hovered in mid-air looking at Hu Fei while he held Hu Fei’s life is his hands.

He could take Hu Fei’s life in just an instant with a flick of his sword.

“Reasons ?” Duan Ling Tuan questioned.

Hu Fei stared blankly for a moment before he scrambled to reply, “I’m the personal disciple of the Peak Master of Fire Peak. My teacher won’t let you get away with it if you kill me… He definitely won’t let you get away with it!”

“This is the only reason you can come up with? ”

Duan Ling Tian had expected Hu Fei to come out with something a little more original. He did not expect Hu Fei to bring up his teacher’s name, Cha Bai the Peak Master of Fire Peak, to claim protection. Duan Ling Tian was undoubtedly very disappointed.

When he planned to murder Hu Fei, how could he not know that Cha Bai would be offended?

Naturally, he had already thought of it!

Nevertheless, he was unafraid of offending Cha Bai!

Hu Fei’s faced distorted after he noticed Duan Ling Tian was unmoved by his reason. Hu Fei kneeled down on the ground and immediately began kowtowing before Duan Ling Tian with a ‘poof’ sound.

“Duan Ling Tian, show me mercy! Please don’t kill me!”

Hu Fei was kowtowing and begging for mercy at the same time. “In the past, I was as blind as a bat, and I know I’ve offended you… As long as you spare my life today, I guarantee I’ll never oppose you again in the future!”

“Show me mercy! Please don’t kill me!”

After a short while of kowtowing non-stop, Hu Fei’s forehead began to turn red from his blood. His facial expression exposed the fear within him.

It should be noted that Hu Fei’s action took Duan Ling Tian by surprise.

Duan Ling Tian could not have guessed that in this moment of life and death, Hu Fei would forsake his dignity and beg for mercy from his former mortal enemy without any sort of integrity.

“Maybe I’ve overestimated him… How could a person who betrayed his teacher, who had saved his life and cultivated him, have any sort of integrity?”

Duan Ling Tian understood Hu Fei’s current action after he recalled what he had done in the past.

‘A leopard could not change its spots overnight’ was a description that befitted Hu Fei.

“This Hu Fei has brought disgrace to Fire Peak and has brought disgrace to our Five Element Sect as well!” Huang Daniu said with a face filled with disgust.

Apart from a Fire Peak’s disciple who had a complicated expression on his face, the other disciples from the Five Element Sect looked at Hu Fei with disdain. ” Ze Ze…Is this the level of dignity our Five Element Sect’s Peak Master of Fire Peak’s direct disciple has?”

“I agree with senior brother Daniu…He truly is a disgrace to Fire Peak, a disgrace to our Five Element Sect!”

“I think if Peak Master Cha Bai saw this, he’d be so enraged and slapped him to death.”

“Disgrace! Such a disgrace!”

The disciples from Five Element Sect shifted their attention toward Hu Fei, contempt was written all over their faces as they spoke about him.

Currently, even the way the disciples from the other factions looked at Hu Fei was also filled with contempt.

“Who could’ve guessed that there’s such a cowardly disciple in the Five Element Sect.”

“If I’m not mistaken, he’s the direct disciple of the Peak Master of Fire Peak from the Five Element Sect… How poor is the judgment of the Peak Master of Fire Peak to accept such a disgraceful disciple?”

“On one end, Duan Ling Tian, as a disciple of Five Element Sect has a profound martial art prowess along with his unyielding approach, is a person to be revered. On the other end, Hu Fei, also a Five Element Sect’s disciple, is a real coward and a despicable person.”

…

The disciples from the other major forces debated among themselves as they expressed their disgust toward Hu Fei. Some of them even compared him to Duan Ling Tian. It made for a very stark comparison.

The sounds of the surrounding conversations were quite loud and were clearly heard by Hu Fei, it made him tremble.

However, Hu Fei recovered from it in just a split second and continued to kowtow and beg for mercy from Duan Ling Tian as if he did not hear anything. “Duan Ling Tian, have mercy on me! Please, I beg you … I beg you please!!”

“You’re the bigger person, you’re the bigger person! Have mercy on me! Please, I beg you … I beg you please!”

Hu Fei’s eyes were filled with indignation. He made a vow to himself in his heart. He would make Duan Ling Tian pay for what he did here today if he survived this.

“If Peak Master Cha Bai saw you kowtowing and begging for mercy from me without any sort of integrity or dignity… I probably wouldn’t even need to dirty my hands since he’d probably kill you himself,” Duan Ling Tian said coolly as he lifted the sword in his hand. His eyes were slightly narrowed.

When Hu Fei noticed out of the corner of his eyes that Duan Ling Tian had lifted his sword in preparation to kill him, his face changed. He stopped kowtowing and begging for mercy immediately as though he knew that his doom is imminent.

He then shifted his gaze to a Five Element Sect’s Fire Peak’s disciple standing not too far away as he transmitted his voice to the disciple’s ear.

“…”

“…If you do as I planned, I don’t believe that the combined strength of a few strong youths from several of the major forces is unable to kill him!”

After Hu Fei ended his Voice Transmission, he looked at Duan Ling Tian and shouted, “Duan Ling Tian! I’ll wait for you on the road to the netherworld!”

Duan Ling Tian could never have guessed that at the crucial moment between life and death, Hu Fei would finally stop begging for mercy. It seemed that Hu Fei’s dignity and integrity had returned all of a sudden.

“I’m afraid that day will never come. ”

Duan Ling Tian expressionlessly swung his sword at once. With just a swing of his sword, he ended Hu Fei’s life without facing any sort of resistance.

Boom!

Hu Fei’s body fell on the floor as Duan Ling Tian took a deep breath. Signs of relief could be seen on his face.

Duan Ling Tian knew he had successfully dealt with a potential threat.

However, something went unnoticed by Duan Ling Tian. Among the disciples from Five Element Sect, one of the disciples from Fire Peak looked at Hu Fei’s body with grief and indignation in his eyes. However, he managed to control his emotions and prevent them from showing.

There was a buzz among the group of Five Element Sect’s disciples after seeing Hu Fei being killed even though no one felt the slightest pity toward Hu Fei.

He already had a bad reputation during the time he spent in Five Element Sect. He was known as the Ungrateful Bastard.

Obviously, many Five Element Sect’s disciples were still unable to forgive Hu Fei for the preposterous action of betraying his master who had saved his life and cultivated him when he transferred from Wood Peak to Fire Peak.

Duan Ling Tian killed Hu Fei in such a short time and in such brief manner. This scared the young disciples from the other four major forces. Cold sweat began to form, they were afraid Duan Ling Tian would make a move against them.

The decisiveness in Duan Ling Tian’s strike filled their heart with terror.

Under the watchful eyes of the onlookers, Duan Ling Tian focused his attention on the two black-clad youth standing aside by themselves after he killed Hu Fei. He said, “Both of you are very intelligent.”

This two Sun Moon Sect’s disciples were able to survive the massacre because the both of them did not take part in the battle against Duan Ling Tian.

Otherwise, they would undoubtedly be dead!

In the distant, the two Sun Moon Sect’s disciples’ faces blanched when they saw Duan Ling Tian’s gaze on them. After they heard what Duan Ling Tian said, they both felt relieved.

Hu Lin, the strongest person among the current young generation in Sun Moon Sect, inhaled deeply before he asked the person next to him, “Now, what do you think?”

Zhang Ping, the second strongest person among the current young generation, had cold sweat on his forehead. After listening to Hu Lin’s question, he forced a smile and said, “It’s fortunate that I listened to your advice… Hu Lin, I owe you my life.”

Initially, he had planned to join the other disciples from Sun Moon Sect to confront Duan Ling Tian and avenge Lu Kai.

At the crucial moment, Hu Lin had stopped him.

Recalling the attack utilized by Duan Ling Tian, cold sweat started to form on his forehead again like torrential rain.

The strongest person among the current younger generation in Empyrean Temple, Xuan Bei, who had stood quietly aside during the entire event, gazed at Duan Ling Tian and bluntly asked, “Duan Ling Tian… I look forward to battling you more and more! Shall we battle after we’re done exploring the Martial Emperor’s secret treasure?”

“Gladly!” Duan Ling Tian shrugged his shoulder indifferently, and continued saying, “However, the battle between us doesn’t necessarily have to wait until we’re done exploring the Martial Emperor’s secret treasure to proceed… If you find any treasure that interests me in the Martial Emperor’s secret treasure, we may need to battle it out.”

After hearing what Duan Ling Tian had to say, Xuan Bei stared and him and questioned, “Oh, so you’re planning to snatch things out of my hands?”

“Of course! As long there are things that interest me in your hands, I’ll snatch it,” Duan Ling Tian replied bluntly.

Xuan Bei took a deep breath before he said with anticipation on his face, “Sure, sure… Then I’ll wait and see!”

At the same time, Zhang Yan voice sounded from afar, “Let’s go!”

Immediately after, Zhang Yan along with Qi Feng, Qin Kong, and seven other Emotion Severing Sect’s disciples went down the stone staircase next to the stone platform into the pitch black bottomless abyss.

Meanwhile, Xuan Bei hailed a group of Empyrean Temple’s disciples to keep up with them, “Keep up.”

The two only surviving Sun Moon Sect’s disciples strode toward the stairs and followed behind a group of young Empyrean Temple’s disciples down the stone stairs.

A number of Five Element Sect’s disciples whispered among themselves.

“Sun Moon Sect is really miserable…Twenty young disciples. The first one was killed by senior brother Ling Tian outside, then another seventeen were slaughtered here. Now there’s only the two of them left.”

“In my opinion, Skywolf Fort is the one that’s truly unlucky!”

Chapter 947: The Long Winding Stone Staircase Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“I agree. Skywolf Fort’s disciples are the unluckiest!”

“First, an unlucky Skywolf Fort’s disciple overestimated himself and decided to launch a sneak attack on Senior Brother Ling Tian which led to him slipping and falling into the Bottomless Abyss. I presume he’s dead by now. Then the remaining nineteen of the twenty Skywolf Fort’s disciples that came on this expedition were killed as well when they tried to attack Senior Brother Ling Tian unsuccessfully because they coveted senior brother Ling Tian’s treasure!”

“I guess the five Vice Fort Masters of Skywolf Fort would be furious if they knew what had happened during the expedition!”

“Naturally, if they knew that all twenty Skywolf Fort’s disciples that came on the expedition were killed before they even had a chance to venture deep into the Martial Emperor’s Treasure … they would definitely be shaking with anger.”

…

The Five Element Sect’s disciples were having an interesting discussion among themselves. Many of them were getting more and more excited as the discussion grew heated.

There was no exception, all of their eyes were filled with awe when they looked at the purple-clad Duan Ling Tian descending slowly from the Devilseal tablet.

“Senior Brother Ling Tian is so powerful!”

“Yes, I agree… Although I am confident about his abilities, I couldn’t help but feel nervous for him when I saw he was surrounded by 48 young powerhouses.”

“Me too. I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw senior brother Ling Tian kill most of the 48 young powerhouses and injuring and crippling the rest with only a swing of his sword.”

“I have decided! I’ll follow Senior Brother Ling Tian’s lead in the Martial Emperor’s Treasure… Senior brother Ling Tian can have the lion’s share. I’ll follow him as long as I can scavenge from the scraps.”

“You’re smarter than you look!”

…

Duan Ling Tian overhead the conversation when he landed next to Feng Tian Wu, Huang Daniu, Su Li, and Zhang Shou Yong. He kept his Devilseal tablet, and he could not help but smile wryly after hearing the conversations.

The Blade Sect’s disciples who were quietly standing at the side also turned to look at Duan Ling Tian with awe.

“Duan Ling Tian…Am I destined to be inferior to you in my entire life? Can I not surpass you?”

A Blade Sect’s disciple looked at the Duan Ling Tian’s silhouette with a complicated look in his eyes.

That disciple was none other than Long Yun!

Long Yun, the Blade Young Master, was one of the Five Young Masters in the Former Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom. Through a fortuitous opportunity, he was taken as a disciple by Saber 5, the Vice Sect Master of Blade Sect’s House of Saber. This had helped him to make great improvements in his cultivation.

Later, Long Yun stood out in the Genius Competition at the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom. He competed with the young powerhouses from different empires and kingdom along the way to obtain the eligibility to participate in the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties.

He was currently the official disciple of Blade Sect’s House of Saber after he followed Saber 5 back to Blade Sect.

Long Yun was one of the twenty young Blade Sect’s disciples that were selected to enter the Martial Emperor’s Treasure this time.

“Who would have thought… The youth first heard of in the martial competition among the Five Major Sects at Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom several years ago has now grown to such heights…” Long Yun sighed, he could not help but feel defeated.

“Let’s go.”

Duan Ling Tian only smiled calmly when he noticed everyone’s attention was on him. He motioned for them to go down along the stone staircase by the side of the platform.

Feng Tian Wu followed Duan Ling Tian down, along with Huang Daniu, Su Li, and Zhang Shou Yong.

The rest of the disciples from Five Element Sect and Blade Sect went down the stone staircase with them as well.

Disciples from Five Element Sect were led by Duan Ling Tian while disciples from Blade Sect followed Feng Tian Wu.

Brothers Nangong Chen and Nangong Yi followed behind the group as they looked at the leading purple-clad youth with eyes filled with complicated feelings.

Both of them were once the most brilliant disciples of their generation in the Five Element Sect.

However, Duan Ling Tian had taken away all the honor and glory that was once theirs since the day he turned up at the sect.

“If we continue to be complacent… I’m afraid we’ll never be able to surpass him,” Nangong Yi said with a bitter smile.

Although Duan Ling Tian took away his glory, he did not hate Duan Ling Tian for it.

This was because Duan Ling Tian achieved that with his strength and by honorable means, not by means of schemes and lies.

Maybe Nangong Yi had lost, but he was sincerely convinced that Duan Ling Tian was better than him.

In Nangong Yi’s opinion, if he wanted to regain his former glory he would need to surpass Duan Ling Tian. When the time came, all his former glory would then be restored naturally.

“I’ll definitely surpass him.” Nangong Chen was a man of few words, but his determination echoed in his voice as his eyes gleamed resolutely.

It was apparent the Nangong twins were under severe pressure due to the dominating and sudden appearance of Duan Ling Tian.

It was a kind of pressure that they had never faced before in the past

At this moment, their Martial Dao’s hearts were being purified. They had a common goal and it was to surpass Duan Ling Tian!

“Between the two of us … whoever is the first to surpass him shall be the elder brother! Do you agree?” Nangong Yi challenged Nangong Chen to a bet between brothers. He looked at Nangong Chen with a raised eyebrow.

“You better prepare to address me as elder brother then,” Nangong Chen said coolly with a straight face.

“We shall see!” Nangong Yi murmured with a flash in his eyes.

Nangong Yi understood that his brother’s strength was better than his at the moment.

The reason he made such a pact with Nangong Chen was to motivate himself to surpass his brother and even Duan Ling Tian!

There was no motivation without some stress.

Naturally, Duan Ling Tian was unaware of what had happened between the Nangong Twins. He did not know that he had been set as a benchmark, a target for them to work hard and surpass.

“It’s getting darker.”

Duan Ling Tian and Feng Tian Wu led the way down the stone staircase with a group of disciples from Five Element Sect and Blade Sect following behind.

The silhouettes of disciples from Empyrean Temple led by Xuan Bei along with the two Sun Moon Sect’s disciples who was slowly traveling ahead vanished before their eyes and left them in darkness.

After a while in the darkness, a flame burst out of Feng Tian Wu’s body and illuminated the surroundings. However, the area that was illuminated was limited.

Inspired by Feng Tian Wu, a flame rose up among the group of Empyrean Temple’s disciples not long after Feng Tian Wu’s flames appeared.

Moments later, a flame could be seen rising in front of the disciples of Empyrean Temple and the two Sun Moon Sect’s disciples

That was the place where Zhang Yan who was leading the group of Emotion Severing Sect’s disciples was situated.

With Emotion Severing Sect, Empyrean Temple, and Sun Moon Sect’s people leading the way, the disciples from Five Element Sect and Blade Sect heaved a sigh of relief and trailed behind them.

“How long is this stone staircase?”

After an hour of traveling, the end of the stone staircase was still not in sight. Duan Ling Tian could not help but narrow his eyes. He looked puzzled.

“The group from Emotion Severing Sect has turned,” a disciple from Five Element Sect exclaimed and startled Duan Ling Tian.

Duan Ling Tian lifted his head after he heard the comment. He noticed the fire in the lead was moving toward the left side, but he could not make out the details as they were too far apart.

Moments later, the disciples from Emotion Severing Sect moved to the bottom left of Duan Ling Tian’s sight

A while later, the disciples of Empyrean Temple along with the two Sun Moon Sect’s disciples turned left as well and followed the Emotion Severing Sect down.

When they came closer, Duan Ling Tian noticed that they had reached the end of the stone staircase through the illumination from the flames rising from Feng Tian Wu’s body.

Naturally, this was only the end of the stone staircase in this direction.

The stone staircase in front turned and led to the bottom left, leading to a new undiscovered stairway.

“This stone stairs won’t be endless right?”

Duan Ling Tian, Huang Daniu, and the rest turned left and traveled down. Huang Daniu began to complain with an impatient look on his face, “We’ve already traveled for more than an hour… Yi, they’ve picked up the pace!”

Huang Daniu noticed the lights from the group of people from Emotion Severing Sect suddenly picked up the pace and flew ahead in a flash before he could even finish his sentence.

The lights from the Empyrean Temple also sped up immediately after that.

“Follow them!” Duan Ling Tian said to the others with a raised eyebrow before he flew ahead to catch up with the rest.

Shou! Shou! Shou! Shou! Shou! Shou!

…

One by one, the disciples from Five Element Sect and Blade Sect followed Duan Ling Tian’s lead.

At the entrance of Martial Emperor’s Treasure above the majestic door, outside of the layer of grey light shield, the senior officials from the six major forces were standing there closely as they monitored the grey light shield as though they could see through it and see what was happening inside.

The greyish white shield had become darker since Duan Ling Tian had first passed through to reach the platform. This clouded the visions of the people who wanted to find out about the situation inside.

That was why whatever that had happened inside after Duan Ling Tian went in was unknown to the people outside.

“Sword 13,Saber 5… I originally thought Duan Ling Tian would be admitted into Blade Sect, I didn’t expect that he would end up joining Five Element Sect instead.”

Skywolf Fort’s Vice Fort Master Ning Can looked at the two middle-aged men nearby and laughed mockingly.

Saber 5’s face darkened after listening to Ning Can. He furiously replied, “Ning Can, if it was not for the intrusion from Skywolf Fort… Duan Ling Tian wouldn’t have disappeared suddenly.”

Sword 1’s face looked annoyed as well

There was no doubt what Ning Can said was akin to rubbing salt on Blade Sect’s wound.

The events that led to Duan Ling Tian going missing would not have happened in the first place if it was not for Skywolf Fort’s intrusion and kidnap of Duan Ling Tian.

“Humph! Listen up the five of you… After the little ones are finished exploring the Martial Emperor’s secret treasure, the both of us will pay Skywolf Fort a visit and get an explanation from Qing Lang!” House of Saber’s Sect Master from Blade Sect exclaimed. His sharp gaze swept pass the five Vice Fort Masters’ bodies.

“If Qing Lang can’t give us a satisfactory explanation… I might need to stretch this old body’s bones,” the Sect Master of the House of Sword sternly added.

They knew about the incident that happened several months ago, but they did not care at that time.

At that time, in their opinion, they did not need to tear off the veneer of mutual respect for a quasi-disciple from the House of Sword that had not even pass the rudimentary stage.

However, they could not have guessed that the quasi-disciple from the House of Sword that they did not care about was innately talented and cunning.

Throughout the history of Blade sect, there had never been a monster that was so innately talented and cunning that he could kill a Ninth Level Void Interpretation martial artist, who used a grade two spirit weapon, with only a punch. Moreover, he was under the age of thirty.
