Chapter 4690  Duan Ling Tian’s Goal to Obtain the Life Creation Chart

"Greetings, Senior Chen," Jiang Tian Zheng said politely. Inwardly, he was cursing the other party for being treacherous. After all, despite being a Triple Dao Merging powerhouse, the other party actually hid in the dark, waiting to launch a sneak attack.

"Considering how bad Brother Chen's temper was earlier, I had already guessed that Senior Chen was present," Jiang Tian Zheng continued to say politely, "As for compensation, there's no need for that."

Jiang Tian Zheng and Chen Ming Hao were both Dao Merging powerhouses. Even if he were not Chen Ming Hao's match, he would not be much weaker than Chen Ming Hao. Moreover, he was also confident that the Triple Dao Merging powerhouse would not join forces with Chen Ming Hao to deal with him over such a trivial matter. Not only that, but he was also confident that if the duo attacked him, he would be able to escape with minor injuries. It was also unlikely that they would harm the other members of the royal family of the Surging River Divine Kingdom in order to kill him. After all, that would only bring chaos to the Chen clan.

All in all, Jiang Tian Zheng was certain the duo would not attack him now. After all, there was no real conflict between them. It was unlikely that the verbal dispute earlier was going to escalate into a life-or-death situation.

The duo only came to look for Duan Ling Tian because Duan Ling Tian's Limitless Sword Dao affected Chen Ming Hao's interest, hoping to get rid of Duan Ling Tian. Alas, their visit was in vain. After all, Duan Ling Tian had left long before their arrival. Not only that, but Duan Ling Tian had also taken precautions to ensure his loved ones' safety.

In fact, Jiang Tian Zheng felt that Duan Ling Tian was overly cautious. In his opinion, the two Dao Merging powerhouses from the Chen clan were unlikely to harm Duan Ling Tian's loved ones. After all, doing so would only make them enemies of the Dao Merging powerhouses in the Divine Land.

Meanwhile, Chen Jiu Xiao took a deep look at Jiang Tian Zheng before he said, "In that case, we'll take our leave first."

After saying that, Chen Jiu Xiao and Chen Ming Hao left.

…

After leaving, Chen Ming Hao said in a deep voice, "Grandfather, Duan Ling Tian came from the world within the Life Creation Chart. There's no way he could have known that I comprehended the Limitless Sword Dao as well. Not only that, but he also could not have known that we would deal with him after he became a Dao Merging powerhouse. There's no doubt that Jiang Tian Zheng was the one who told him about it!"

Chen Ming Hao was certain that without Jiang Tian Zheng's reminder, Duan Ling Tian would not have been so well-prepared.

"So what?" Chen Jiu Xiao said calmly, "We can't force him to admit it if he doesn't want to. Don't forget that he's also a Dao Merging powerhouse, and he's also stronger than you. Unless we're certain we can deal with him, it won't be beneficial to the Chen clan if we take action against him."

Chen Ming Hao's expression darkened even more upon hearing these words. A hint of unwillingness could be seen in the depths of his eyes. However, he knew there was nothing he could do even if he felt unwilling.

Although the Myriad Mountains' Chen clan contributed greatly to Chen Ming Hao's success, the clan had also become a constraint on him, and also his grandfather. They naturally could not abandon the Chen clan. After all, his grandfather had many direct descendants in the Chen clan. How could they disregard the lives of those people?

In comparison, Jiang Tian Zheng did not have any direct descendants. He guarded the royal family of the Surging River Divine Kingdom because the Jiang family had long been based in the kingdom. As such, it was much more difficult for Chen Jiu Xiao to disregard the Chen clan compared to Jiang Tian Zheng.

This was also the reason Jiang Tian Zheng was able to remain unyielding in front of Chen Jiu Xiao earlier. After all, Jiang Tian Zheng did not have any fetters tying him down.

"Grandfather, now that Duan Ling Tian is aware that we want to kill him, it won't be easy for us to find him! It makes me angry whenever I think about him sharing the Dao path with me!" Chen Ming Hao said unwillingly.

Chen Jiu Xiao said with a sigh, "There's nothing we can do about that. We can only take one step at a time now. Now that Duan Ling Tian has fled, we can only continue to search for him and look for information. Once we confirm his whereabouts, we'll take action immediately. That's all we can do now."

Chen Ming Hao nodded as his eyes shone with resentment.

…

Although Jiang Tian Zheng, Divine Monk Yong Ye, and Zhou Qing Chuan assured Duan Ling Tian that the duo from the Chen clan would not harm his loved ones even if he left them in the capital, Duan Ling Tian still felt uneasy.

As such, he brought his loved ones to a remote place north of the Endless Sword Domain. The place was like a paradise. In this remote place, Yu Xiao was invincible; it was enough to ensure his loved ones' safety.

Currently, those who remained in the Duan Residence in the Surging River Divine Kingdom were mostly people who sought refuge from Duan Ling Tian after being transported to the Divine Land from the Myriad Worlds and the Outer Boundary. Led by Zhao An Yi, they stayed in the residence to intercept acquaintances from the Myriad Worlds and the Outer Boundary.

It was impossible for everyone to leave the Duan Residence. After all, Duan Ling Tian still had many missing loved ones. For example, his son; Duan Nian Tian, was still missing. Li Rou often shed tears in secret, worried about Duan Nian Tian. Whenever Duan Ling Tian saw Li Rou cry, he would feel distressed. Nonetheless, he still remained optimistic. Now that he had become a Dao Merging powerhouse, he was confident that Duan Nian Tian would come to the Duan Residence as soon as Duan Nian Tian heard about him.

After making the arrangements for his loved ones, Duan Ling Tian said before bidding farewell to Yu Xiao, "I'll leave everyone in your care then."

…

Duan Ling Tian did not tell anyone about his intention to look for the owner of the Life Creation Chart. Yu Xiao was unaware of his intention and only assumed that he had left to make a name for himself in the Divine Land to reunite with his loved ones.

"He's still injured, so this is a good opportunity for me… If I can kill him and obtain the Life Creation Chart, it'll be perfect…"

Duan Ling Tian followed the aura of the Life Creation Chart, which he could sense after he entered the Dao Merging realm. He knew that there would be a fierce battle once he met the owner of the Life Creation Chart. It was no surprise that obtaining the Life Creation Chart would be challenging even if the odds were in his favor.

He was confident that he would be able to defeat his opponent due to his opponent's injuries. However, he knew it would be unlikely for him to be able to kill the other party even if the other party was injured. After all, the other party was stronger than Duan Ling Tian when the other party was in his prime.
