Chapter 2506 Zhang Chu He, the Left Guardian of Celestial Masters Sect!

Whoosh!

The thunderous voice caught Zhang Yi by surprise as an expression of trepidation appeared on his face immediately.

Meanwhile, Duan Ling Tian and Tang Xiao Xiao instantly turned to look at the source of the voice. They saw a figure flashing in and out in the distance. As the figure approached them, they finally saw it was an old man. Duan Ling Tian thought the old man looked familiar.

Duan Ling Tian studied the old man as he thought to himself, ‘Have I met him before?’ Apart from that, he discovered that the old man’s eyes were trained on him even though he had called out Zhang Yi’s name. Flames of fury and killing intent burned in the old man’s eyes when he looked at Duan Ling Tian as though he relished the thought of killing him slowly and painfully. ‘It seems like he really hates me…’

The persistent feeling that he had met this old man stayed with him even though he could not recall when he had met this old man. Duan Ling Tian was still wondering about the old man’s apparent enmity and familiarity when he heard Zhang Yi cried out in fear, “The Left Guardian!”

The Left Guardian? Realization finally dawned on Duan Ling Tian. He must be Zhang Chu He, the Left Guardian of Celestial Masters Sect!. ‘No wonder he looks familiar. He’s Zhang Yun Fei’s grandfather!’

After Duan Ling Tian killed Zhang Yun Fei, a disciple of the Celestial Masters Sect, in a heaven-rank treasure vault left by Li Bai, the Green Lotus Sword Celestial, in the Beyond Heaven Secret Zone, Zhang Yi had told him about Zhang Yun Fei’s grandfather. Zhang Yi told him that Zhang Chu He was an Eight Tribulation Bodiless Celestial whose power could rival the other two Eight Tribulation Bodiless Celestials in the sect. Zhang Chu He’s strength was only second to the strongest person in Celestial Masters Sect, the Free Cloud Sage who was a Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial.

After confirming the old man’s identity, Duan Ling Tian looked at him scornfully. He did not fear Zhang Chu He at all. It was only natural since his strength was currently comparable to a Nine Tribulation Bodiless Celestial. Why would he fear a mere Eight Tribulation Bodiless Celestial?

“Zhang Yi! You colluded with an outsider to murder your sect member. Today, I’ll act in accordance with our sect laws and execute you!” Zhang Chu He closed the distance between them in just a blink of an eye. He glared at Zhang Yi balefully as energy like tidal waves rolled off his body. At this moment, he seemed like the Grim Reaper about to reap Zhang Yi’s life with his scythe.

Zhang Yi paled instantly. Zhang Chu He’s speed looked deceptively slow, but he discovered that he had been bound to his spot by an unseen force. No matter how hard he struggled, he could not free himself at all.

When Duan Ling Tian saw Zhang Chu He had bound Zhang Yi, he scoffed loudly before he called out, “Elementary Devouring Tactic!” In just a blink of an eye, his strength had risen by two levels.

“Sword Formation!” A Celestial Sword appeared in Duan Ling Tian’s hand before it began to spin around him. Millions of sword rays gathered above his head and formed a Sword Formation. This was the fifth stage of the Sovereign Heart Sword, the Heart-Sword Amalgamation. This attack was undoubtedly stronger than the Body Sword Fusion!

“Release!” Duan Ling Tian cried out as his eyes glinted coldly. The Sword Formation above his head began to spin like a hurricane.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A series of explosions sounded in the air. Terrifying long cracks began to appear in the void around Zhang Yi, looking like black pythons. This scene was more than enough to send chills running up one’s spine.

“What is…” Zhang Chu He who was lunging toward Zhang Yi to kill him could not evade Duan Ling Tian’s sudden attack. The technique he had used to bound Zhang Yi backfired, causing him to come to a halt before throwing up blood. Since he did not use all his strength to cast the technique to bind Zhang Yi, it caused a backlash when he was attacked. Moreover, Duan Ling Tian’s attack was comparable to the full strength of an Eight Tribulation Bodiless Celestial! Since he was holding back his strength, he, naturally, could not bear the brunt of the attack with the full strength of an Eight Tribulation Bodiless Celestial.

“You… How could you possibly be this strong?!” Zang Chu He looked at Duan Ling Tian in fear and disbelief as he wiped the blood that had trickled out of his mouth. The purple-clad young man had killed his grandson, and he had planned to seek revenge from him today. He had been waiting out here for a long time for Zhang Yi’s return. He had planned to torture Zhang Yi for the purple-clad young man’s location. He was pleasantly surprised earlier when he saw the purple-clad young man had come to Yan Huang Realm with Zhang Yi. There was no need for him to search for the purple-clad young man.

For that reason, Zhang Chu He planned to kill Zhang Yi first before killing the purple-clad young man. However, he did not expect the purple-clad young man would be so strong. Based on the purple-clad young man’s attack, he was not sure if he could defeat him even if he unleashed all his strength.

“Are you surprised?” Duan Ling Tian asked coldly as he studied Zhang Chu He’s expression.

“You… You’re just an Eminent Celestial!” Zhang Yi exclaimed in disbelief. After a while, a knowing expression appeared on his face. “You… Don’t tell me you obtained the inheritance from a Great Overarching Golden Celestial!”

Duan Ling Tian sneered. “What does it have to do with you?”

Zhang Chu He was greatly infuriated at being treated in such a demeaning manner by an Eminent Celestial. Although Duan Ling Tian’s strength was not inferior to his, he could not help but feel angry. “You arrogant brat!”

“Arrogant?” Duan Ling Tian narrowed his eyes at Zhang Chu He’s words. A cold light flashed in his eyes. “You obstructed our path first. Who do you think is arrogant?”

Zhang Chu He scoffed. “I have no interest in you. My problem lies with Zhang Yi! He colluded with an outsider to murder his own sect member. I’m here to deliver punishment on behalf of the Celestial Masters Sect. Do not interfere!”

Duan Ling Tian laughed uproariously when he heard Zhang Chu He’s words as though he had just heard the funniest joke in the world.

“What are you laughing about?” Flames of fury burned in Zhang Chu He’s eyes as though they were capable of burning everything in his sight.

“I find it hilarious that even though you know I killed your grandson, you don’t have the courage to say it out loud. Are you trying to stall for time and wait for reinforcement so you can gang up on me later?” Duan Ling Tian had seen Zhang Chu He subtly sending a signal earlier. He was certain Zhang Chu He knew he was no weaker than an Eight Tribulation Bodiless Celestial. Zhang Chu He was not confident he would be able to defeat him so he had requested for reinforcement.

“Don’t make me laugh! Why would I need help to deal with someone like you?” Zhang Chu He flew into a rage out of humiliation since his plan had been exposed. He would not admit to it.

“Oh, is that so?” Duan Ling Tian smiled, it was deceptively friendly. Upon closer inspection, one would be able to see the shadow of contempt hidden in his smile. He said dismissively, “Well, since you’re so eager for revenge, I’ll give you a chance and wait for your reinforcement to arrive. However, let me warn you that there’s a limit to my patience. I’ll wait for fifteen minutes. If your reinforcement doesn’t arrive by then, don’t blame me for not holding back.” His gaze caused Zhang Chu He’s blood to run cold.

“Impudent!” Zhang Chu He’s expression turned unsightly. He had assumed Duan Ling Tian’s strength was only comparable to an Eight Tribulation Bodiless Celestial. He might have a hard time defeating Duan Ling Tian, but the same could be said for Duan Ling Tian as well. It would not be easy for Duan Ling Tian to defeat him as well so why was Duan Ling Tian behaving so arrogantly? Did this brat treat him like an ant?

“Left Guardian!” Zhang Yi said anxiously, “Zhang Yun Fei died because he coveted my friend Celestial Supreme Treasure. If he were not greedy, my friend wouldn’t have killed him! More importantly, did you summon the Right Guardian as well?” He continued to say in a grave tone, “Please reconsider your decision. It’s fine if you want to throw your life away, but please don’t involve the Right Guardian!”

“What did you say?!” Zhang Yi’s words further fanned Zhang Chu He’s flames of fury. He said disdainfully, “Are you implying that even with the help of the Right Guardian, I still won’t be able to deal with this stupid brat? Preposterous! Do you think he’s like Feng Qing Yang who obtained the inheritance from a Great Overarching Golden Celestial?”
