Chapter 1150 The Death of Yang Hong and Son
"Father!" Seeing that his father was severely injured, Yang Fei had a drastic change of expression.
His face turned somber after hearing what Duan Ling Tian said. He looked at Duan Ling Tian with a vengeance and said furiously, "They're no longer at Yang Peak! If you're looking for them, go and look for them yourself."
"They're not at Yang Peak?" Naturally, Duan Ling Tian did not believe Yang Fei. As he had the ferocious will to kill in his eyes, an invisible, majestic energy swept out when he lifted his arm. The energy covered Yang Fei and dragged him to Duan Ling Tian forcefully.
Subsequently, Duan Ling Tian made a gripping gesture.
Yang Fei, who seemed to be hanging in mid-air not far away, appeared to be choked by an invisible hand without Duan Ling Tian even touching him. His face was flushed, and it was evident that he was suffering great pain.
"You… You... What are you doing?" After struggling for a while, Yang Fei only managed to spit out those few words.
He was looking at Duan Ling Tian in fear now like he was facing a judge who could decide if he would die or live.
"Fei'er!" Faraway, Yang Hong's expression fell desperately when he saw his son in Duan Ling Tian's grasp.
Fwah!
However, before he could catch his breath, he spat a mouthful of blood out again while feeling wobbly. He only recovered a little after consuming a Healing Medicinal Pill.
Meanwhile, the Guardian Elder of Yang Peak and the two Vice Peak Masters remained where they were, not daring to do anything.
Among the three of them, the Guardian Elder possessed the most powerful ability.
The Guardian Elder's ability was similar to their Yang Peak's Peak Master Yang Hong.
However, the purple-clad young man before them exhibited a strength that was even more powerful than Yang Hong. He had shown his full force before touching him and even attacked him with his bare hands.
How terrifying would he be if he were to use Spirit Weapons?
They did not dare to imagine.
No!
Even without Spirit Weapons, given Duan Ling Tian's ability, it was sufficient to conquer Yang Peak and even the entire Yin Yang Peak.
It would be a dead end for them if they were to attack Duan Ling Tian now.
The invisible energy that Duan Ling Tian extended with his arm turned into a hand and gripped Yang Fei's neck telekinetically. He said in a cold tone at the same time, "You still have fifteen breaths of time."
He was now sure that the young man before him was the son of the Peak Master of the Yang Peak who would marry Ke'er a year later.
He would have killed him much earlier if he, Yang Fei, were not useful to him.
How dare he attempt to touch his lady? Death of a hundred times would not be enough for such people!
"Yang Peak's Peak Master, you must seize the time that you have left." Duan Ling Tian looked gravely at Yang Hong immediately. His eyes were as brutal as a saber as he spoke calmly.
Despite his calm demeanor, there was a bone-piercing chill in his eyes. Yang Hong could not help but shudder.
"They've run away," Yang Hong took a deep breath in and said in his deep voice while looking at Duan Ling Tian.
"They ran away?" Duan Ling Tian's face turned somber. "What do you mean?"
"Before you arrived, I was constrained by their Senior Sister Yang Xue with her innate ability while they seized the opportunity and ran towards the other side of Yang Peak… We were just going after them, but then you came," Yang Hong suppressed his rage and pointed at the side of Yang Peak as he spoke softly.
Although the direction he pointed at was also a mountainous forest with a complicated terrain, it was not the direction where Ke'er and Fei'er had run to. He had indicated the wrong direction on purpose to mislead Duan Ling Tian.
However, Duan Ling Tian had no idea that Yang Hong was misleading him.
"How can you prove that they've escaped?!" Duan Ling Tian asked with his deep voice. There was an unnatural, cold gleam in his eyes like he would devour anyone who came near him.
"Yang Xue's body's on that tree." Yang Hong pointed at a looming tree beside the tip of Yang Peak. The tree was entirely surrounded by fiery lava, and it was shaking from the rumbling lava.
The rumbling lava might soon uproot the tree.
"Gold Thug," Duan Ling Tian spoke calmly.
Almost as soon as Duan Ling Tian was done speaking, the Gold Thug who stood behind him vanished from where he was like a lightning bolt. He appeared at the tree when he appeared again.
"That's so fast!" The Gold Thug's speed shocked the four high management of Yang Peak including Yang Hong.
Although the golden-robed old man's speed was nothing like theirs, they were not that far apart as the Gold Thug was a Sixth Level Martial Monarch Stage after all.
However, such a person was just the purple-clad young man's sidekick and underling.
Whoosh!
In the next second, the Gold Thug appeared before Duan Ling Tian again.
This time, in his arms, he held a lady clad in white who was covered in blood and had utterly lost the breath of life.
The lady had hair as white as snow. Underneath her white hair was a drop-dead gorgeous face. Apart from the lack of color, there was coldness on her face.
"It really is Yang Xue! She's dead?"
"Peak Master… You killed Yang Xue?"
The two Vice Peak Masters of Yang Peak had a change of expression as they recognized the lady with white hair.
Yang Xue was the most outstanding disciple in Yin Peak. If Yin Peak's Peak Master and the two Vice Peak Masters found out that Yang Peak's Peak Master had killed Yang Xue, they would not let it go just like that.
Yang Hong glared at the both of them upon hearing what they said. He seemed to blame them for spilling what they should not.
"Master." The Gold Thug looked at Duan Ling Tian and shook his head. "It's too late. There's nothing that we can do."
Duan Ling Tian recalled his hand that was gripping Yang Fei with the invisible energy and flew to the Gold Thug. He began to check on the condition of the lady in white in the Gold Thug's arms.
Very soon, he found out that it was too late to save the lady now just like what the Gold Thug had concluded.
"She's Ke'er and Li Fei's Senior Sister? The Xue'er that Peak Master Qin Xiang mentioned?" Duan Ling Tian mumbled softly, appearing to recall something.
"Master, I smell the scent of two ladies who she had contact with. They've gone in that direction… The scent's faint, so they should've been gone for a while now." The Gold Thug's nose wiggled, and he pointed at the other side of Yang Peak.
Yang Hong and his son looked at each other after hearing what the Gold Thug said. They saw grave fear reflected in each other's eyes.
How did he manage to sniff that out?
Was he a dog?
The direction the Gold Thug had pointed in was where Ke'er and Li Fei had left to earlier.
Yang Hong turned extremely dismal when he snapped back to his senses.
He definitely would not have misled the purple-clad young man on purpose by pointing in the wrong direction had he known that he had a person who had such a sharp nose with him.
"Two scents? That should be the two ladies… Gold Thug, give her to Xiong Quan. You get them back! If you can't trace their scent, just scream my name and tell them that I'm here. They'll follow you," Duan Ling Tian's eyes lit up as he ordered immediately.
His tone became a little hurried as he spoke.
Even though hurried, he did not lose his rationale.
He believed that getting the Gold Thug to go after the two ladies would be more efficient than anyone else including himself. After all, the Gold Thug's true form was a Hell Golden Hound and dogs had extremely sharp noses.
"Yes, Master," the Gold Thug responded respectfully and passed the lifeless Yang Xue to Xiong Quan. He then flew away, trailing the two scents like a bolt of lightning that streaked through the sky.
Whoosh!
Duan Ling Tian heard a swishing at the moment.
It was Yang Hong running away with Yang Fei!
Meanwhile, the three high management of Yang Peak did not move at all. They knew that they might not be able to run even if they wanted to.
Moreover, their attempt to escape would most probably agitate the powerful purple-clad young man before them. Therefore, they chose to be rational and stayed put.
However, there was pain and sorrow deep in the Yang Peak's Guardian Elder's eyes. Nobody knew what he was thinking about.
"Trying to run?" Duan Ling Tian grinned and vanished from where he was as he shifted.
Dragon Soaring The Nine Heavens!
All of a sudden, Duan Ling Tian looked like he turned into a five-colored Divine Dragon as he flew out like a razor-sharp sword tearing the sky.
When one looked closely, apart from the five-colored energy around Duan Ling Tian's body, there was a layer of Sword Energy that had formed. It was the Sword Profundity he grasped.
Soon, Duan Ling Tian surpassed Yang Hong and his son, blocking their way.
"What do you want from us?" Yang Hong had a drastic change of expression as he stared at Duan Ling Tian and asked in his deep voice as they were blocked.
"What do you think?" Duan Ling Tian grinned.
"We really didn't do anything to your two fiances… Your man's going after them. With his sharp nose, it won't be difficult for him to find them," Yang Hong took a deep breath and said calmly while trying hard to suppress the fear in him.
"That's another thing. You misled me on purpose aside… Do you think I would let both of you go since you killed my two fiances' Senior Sister?" Duan Ling Tian's eyes turned frosty gradually while gushes of the will to kill came out of his body. They swept through Yang Hong and his son.
"Father! I don't want to die! I don't want to die!" It was manageable for Yang Hong to bear Duan Ling Tian's will to kill, but not his son, Yang Fei. He began to scream. His image was lost as his face was distorted and his eyes filled with fear.
"It was I who killed Yang Xue. It has nothing to do with my son! You can kill me, but please let my son go." Yang Hong stepped forward and protected his son by standing before him. He stared at Duan Ling Tian with determination.
He had experienced Duan Ling Tian's ability before, and he did not have the will to fight right now. The only thing that he hoped for was for Duan Ling Tian to let his son go after killing him.
"You're not worthy of bargaining with me!" Duan Ling Tian's eyes were frigid. As soon as he was done speaking, he vanished from where he was and turned into a gigantic five-colored sword as he dashed towards Yang Hong and his son.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
…
A loud explosion reverberated wherever the gigantic sword swept through. The rumbling Heaven and Earth Energy that followed above the sky was deafening.
Yang Hong and his son turned into ashes as a result of the attack by the massive five-colored sword, and they vanished from this world altogether.
They left behind two Spatial Rings, and a couple of Concept and Profundity Fragments fell from above.
Such an ending happened partly because Yang Hong did not have the will to fight when he encountered Duan Ling Tian. Otherwise, even though he would still die in the end, he could forcefully take Duan Ling Tian's blows for a couple of breaths if he were to fight with his full force.
Whoosh!
Duan Ling Tian paused his movement, then lifted his arm and put away the Spatial Rings as well as the Concept and Profundity Fragments that belonged to Yang Hong and his son.
