Chapter 3902: Temple Master Wu, We Meet Again

“Temple Master, the Dream Cycle Heaven’s Branch Master, Zhuang Tian Heng, requests an audience with you.”

Before the commencement of the Main Title Temple Grand Contest, Wu Hong Qing, the Temple Master of the main Title Temple, was watching a duel between Kings of Gods from a Floating Image Pearl in his courtyard. His courtyard was located in the depths of the main Title Temple.

The Title Temple had existed as long as the Devata Realms and had roots in the Realms of Gods. According to the rumors, the Title Temple even had connections to a supreme powerhouse, which explained the temple’s high status in the Devata Realms. However, it was said that the supreme powerhouse did not care about the Title Temple at all. After all, the Title Temple was no different from an ant in the eyes of a supreme powerhouse. However, naturally, no one could verify the rumors. There was only one thing that was certain: the Title Temple did not bother with top forces in the Devata Realms such as the Ten Thousand Beast Heaven’s Qilin clan and the Wandering Heaven’s Latent Wind Sect, which were rumored to have connections with supreme powerhouses as well.

“Zhuang Tian Heng?” Wu Hong Qing opened his eyes and frowned. He said in a gloomy voice, “Didn’t I say that I won’t be meeting anyone before the start of the Main Title Temple Grand Contest? What’s wrong with him?”

“Temple Master, he said it’s an urgent matter.”

Wu Hongqing’s frown deepened as he said tonelessly, “Tell him to wait at the front courtyard.”

“Yes, Temple Master.”

“Zhuang Tian Heng…”

Wu Hong Qing’s expression was dark as he got out of bed and left his room. He would have ignored Zhuang Tian Heng if it were not for his decision to bring Zhuang Tian Heng back to the main Title Temple and promote Zhuang Tian Heng to become the Vice Temple Master of the main Title Temple due to Zhuang Tian Heng’s capabilities.

‘Damn it! I wouldn’t need to deal with a Branch Master if Feng Qing Yang did not kill all my powerhouses,’ Wu Hong Qing complained inwardly. However, his mood improved when he thought about how Feng Qing Yang was going to die. There was no need to get angry over a dead man.

It did not take long for Wu Hong Qing to arrive at the front courtyard.

The main Title Temple occupied a vast land. The front courtyard was so huge that it could accommodate a man-made lake, artificial mountains, and a pavilion.

Wu Hong Qing looked at Zhuang Tian Heng, who was looking at him from the pavilion. His expression changed when he saw a purple figure, who stood with his back facing him, in the pavilion as well. He found the purple figure’s back rather familiar but could not recall where he had seen it before. He frowned slightly with a dark expression on his face as he thought to himself, ‘Where have I seen that person before?’

“Greetings, Temple Master,” Zhuang Tian Heng called out as he cupped his fists together. He did not bow.

Wu Hong Qing glanced at the purple figure before he shifted his frosty gaze to Zhuang Tian Heng and asked, “Zhuang Tian Heng, did you bring him here?”

“He…” Zhuang Tian Heng said as he turned to look at the purple figure.

However, before Zhuang Tian Heng could say another word, the purple figure turned around and said with a meaningful smile, “Temple Master Wu, we meet again.”

Wu Hong Qing’s eyes widened as soon as he heard the voice. He exclaimed in shock, “Duan Ling Tian?!”

“Temple Master Wu, it’s not been that long since we last met. How come it took you so long to recognize me?” Duan Ling Tian asked with a smile.

When Wu Hong Qing regained his senses, he looked at Zhuang Tian Heng and said with a bright smile, “Branch Master Zhuang, it seems like I’ve wrongly blamed you. You did a good job by capturing Duan Ling Tian! Well done! I’ll consider making you my successor before I leave for the Realm of Gods.”

Wu Hong Qing was ecstatic; he finally captured Duan Ling Tian, who possessed all Five Divine Elements.

Meanwhile, Zhuang Tian Heng was stunned. He looked at Wu Hong Qing as though he was looking at an idiot.

“Temple Master Wu…” Duan Ling Tian said as he strode forward. He mobilized his Divine Energy, causing the void to ripple and twist.

In just a blink of an eye, Wu Hong Qing was brought to his knees with a loud thump, cracking the ground. He struggled as he looked at Duan Ling Tian as though he had seen a ghost. The delighted expression on his face had vanished and was replaced with one of terror and disbelief. He briefly wondered if he was dreaming, but the pain in his knees and the huge pressure told him that was not the case. He soon discovered he could not mobilize his Divine Energy and law at all. It was as though Duan Ling Tian’s energy had sealed his energy off.

‘I’m a powerful King of Gods. Even if Feng Qing Yang is stronger than I am, he’s not capable of suppressing me so thoroughly!’

Similar to Mi Xuan, Wu Hong Qing found this hard to believe and accept. After a moment, a terrifying thought appeared in his mind. ‘Is he… Is he a Lord of Gods?!’

“Temple Master Wu, if Branch Master Zhuang really captured me, what were you planning to do to me?” Duan Ling Tian asked with a disdainful smile on his face.

In the past, Wu Hong Qing and Mi Xuan had forced Duan Ling Tian into a corner. He would have died if it were not for the Five Divine Elements’ help. For this reason, his hatred toward Mi Xuan and Wu Hong Qing ran deep.

“D-duan, Duan Ling Tian, you, you, you’ve become a Lord of Gods?” Wu Hong Qing asked. He still found it difficult to believe. During their last meeting, the young man in front of him had yet to attain godhood, but now, the young man was already a Lord of Gods.

Duan Ling Tian continued to smile as he asked lightly, “Temple Master Wu, you’ve sensed it?”

“H-how’s this possible?!” Wu Hong Qing was dumbfounded.

“Many things seem impossible, but they’re not…” Duan Ling Tian said, “Temple Master Wu, you and Mi Xuan tried to rob me and almost killed me in the past. I bet you didn’t expect that one day you’d be in this situation, right?”

Wu Hong Qing’s expression changed drastically. As though he recalled something, he quickly turned to look at Zhuang Tian Heng.

However, at the moment Zhuang Tian Heng raised his eyebrows, Duan Ling Tian waved his hand.

A terrifying Soul Energy swept toward Wu Hong Qing immediately. In just a moment, his soul was destroyed, and he died.

Then, Duan Ling Tian turned to Zhuang Tian Heng and asked, “Did he speak to you through Voice Transmission?”

“Yes,” Zhuang Tian Heng hurriedly said in a respectful tone, “He was trying to tell me something when, when he died, my lord.”

Duan Ling Tian stared at Zhuang Tian Heng intently. After confirming that Wu Hong Qing did not reveal the fact that he possessed the Five Divine Elements to Zhuang Tian Heng, he looked at Wu Hong Qing’s body. In just a moment, his body disappeared as he possessed Wu Hong Qing’s body.

“Lord Ling Tian?” Zhuang Tian Heng’s eyes widened when he saw Duan Ling Tian’s body disappear.

As though he could read Zhuang Tian Heng’s thoughts, Duan Ling Tian said, “That was just my doppelganger.”

“Doppelganger?” Zhuang Tian Heng’s face paled. He realized that Duan Ling Tian was even stronger than he had imagined.
