War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

Chapter 4568 - 4568 Han Jiang



4568 Han Jiang

Needless to say, the Saints from the Outer Boundary were also making their move. They sent demi Saints and supreme powerhouses out to look for the entrances to the Heaven Traversing Pagoda. At the same time, they also left their cultivation grounds, afraid that Feng Qing Yang would come looking for them and kill them.

Somewhere in the territories of the Azure Cloud Saint Sect.

Zhao An Yi and Guo Lin, the Saints of the Azure Cloud Saint Sect, also saw the heavenly text.

At this time, Zhao An Yi had already arrived at the Han clan, a demi-saint-rank force governed by the Azure Cloud Saint Sect. Han Jiang, the demi Saint of the Han clan, was one of the two demi Saints whom Duan Ling Tian ordered him to look for.

Han Jiang naturally knew who Zhao An Yi was. He quickly came out to greet Zhao An Yi respectfully. He was an old man dressed in fine brocade robes. His face was fierce, and his beard only added to the ferocity. Apart from that, he had a majestic air about him.

However, before Zhao An Yi could make a move, the heavenly text appeared.

Han Jiang quickly said, “Congratulations, Senior Zhao. You’ll be able to enter the Heaven Traversing Pagoda soon and obtain the Heaven Protection Talisman. The Azure Cloud

When Zhao An Yi returned to his senses, he hid the surprise on his face and looked at Han Jiang indifferently.

Han Jiang was terrified, and his heart began to race when he saw Zhao An Yi’s gaze. He did not know what was going on. Initially, he had thought it was an honor that Zhao An Yi, who was famous in the territories of the Azure Cloud Saint Sect, visited the Han clan. However, after seeing the unfriendly expression on Zhao An Yi’s face, he grew nervous.

“Han Jiang, do you know why I came here?” Zhao An Yi asked expressionlessly.

In fact, Zhao An Yi really wanted to leave so he could search for the entrance to the Heaven Traversing Pagoda. He could not wait to enter the pagoda and obtain the Heaven Protection Talisman so he could prepare to enter the Forbidden Realm and undergo the Fatal Heavenly Tribulation. However, when he thought about Duan Ling Tian, he decided to temporarily dismiss this idea. No matter what, it was best for him to do as he was told first. After all, Duan Ling Tian would likely destroy the Azure Cloud Saint Sect if he did not see those two people three months later.

Even if he successfully entered the Heaven Traversing Pagoda there was no guarantee he would obtain the Heaven Protection Talisman. After all, the heavenly text said that they would be rewarded with the Heaven Protection Talisman if they passed the tests. It was not like they would be given the Heaven Protection Talisman as long as they entered the pagoda. Even if he successfully obtained the Heaven Protection Talisman, could he enter the realm of level-seven supreme powerhouses within three months and protect his sect? He knew this was an impossible feat.

In conclusion, Zhao An Yi knew it was better for him to appease Duan Ling Tian first before he searched for the entrance to the Heaven Traversing Pagoda.

Meanwhile, Han Jiang took a deep breath before he answered nervously, “I’m not quite sure, Senior Zhao. Please enlighten me.”

The Han clan was quite a distance away from the Fu clan. As such, the shocking deaths of the two demi Saints from the Fu clan had yet to travel to the Han clan. Moreover, Zhao An Yi had made his way to the Han clan immediately after returning to the Azure Cloud Saint Sect from the Fu clan.

Zhao An Yi sneered. “Have you forgotten what you, Tuoba Lian Cheng, and the two demi Saints from the Fu clan did?”

Without waiting for Han Jiang’s response, Zhao An Yi waved his hand.

A powerful energy swept out immediately and restrained Han Jiang, the demi Saint, in just a blink of an eye.

Zhao An Yi did not waste time and quickly brought Han Jiang away from the Han clan, rushing back to the Azure Cloud Saint Sect at lightning speed. After bringing Han Jiang back, he was going to find the entrance of the Heaven Traversing Pagoda.

“Senior Zhao… W-why are you doing this?” Han Jiang asked fearfully. He had no control over the situation now, making him feel helpless. He really wanted to know the reason for Zhao An Yi’s hostility.

Zhao An Yi scoffed. “Didn’t you hear what I said earlier?”

Han Jiang recalled Zhao An Yi’s earlier words. He did not have time to mull over the words earlier when Zhao An Yi suddenly restrained him and brought him away. It did not take long before he recalled that many years ago, he and Tuoba Lian Cheng received a message from Fu Liang Ming, the demi Saint of the Fu clan. Fu Liang Ming had asked for his help to kill Duan You Wei, the demi Saint of the Duan clan in the territory of the Jade Tide Heavenly Mansion.

It did not take long for Han Jiang to recall that incident because that was the only intersection that Han Jiang had with Tuoba Lian Cheng. Previously, he had only heard of Tuoba Lian Cheng but had never met the other party before. He had only met Tuoba Lian Cheng because of Fu Liang Ming.

‘Did Senior Zhao have a good relationship with Duan You Wei?’ Han Jiang speculated inwardly. His face paled as soon as this thought appeared in his mind. He asked tremblingly, “Senior Zhao, y-you… Are you going to avenge Duan You Wei?”

Han Jiang continued to plead, “Senior, I’m innocent! Fu Liang Ming asked me to help him, and I couldn’t refuse him because I owed him a favor. He was the one who asked me to help him kill Demi Saint Duan! Although I helped, he was the one who dealt the killing blow! Please have mercy on me, senior!”

Zhao An Yi frowned when he heard Han Jiang’s words. He said, “Demi Saint Duan?”

‘Is there such a demi Saint in the Azure Cloud Saint Sect’s territories?’

Han Jiang was stunned when he saw the puzzled expression on Zhao An Yi’s face. He said tentatively, “Senior, didn’t you come for this matter? Demi Saint Duan is Duan You Wei, the demi Saint of the Duan clan in the territories of the Jade Tide Heavenly Mansion.”

Zhao An Yi’s eyes widened imperceptibly upon hearing these words. Duan You Wei and Duan Ling Tian shared the same surname.

‘No wonder…’

After a moment, Zhao An Yi said bluntly, “Han Jiang, did you know that before I came here, the two demi Saints of the Fu clan had already died?”

“What?! Who was it? Who killed them?!”

A horrified expression appeared on Han Jiang’s face immediately. At this time, he was even more certain that Zhao An Yi had come today for the matter regarding Duan You Wei’s death. However, he was also perplexed. The Han clan and the Fu clan were demi-saint-rank forces governed by the Azure Cloud Saint Sect. However, Zhao An Yi, the most powerful person in the Azure Cloud Saint Sect, not only did not help the Fu clan, but Zhao An Yi even came to capture him. Why would Zhao An Yi do such a thing when it was clear that Zhao An Yi was not familiar with Duan You Wei at all?

‘Did Duan You Wei have ties with other Saints?’

With all these thoughts racing through his mind, Han Jiang could not help but fall into despair at this moment.
