Chapter 4614: Whatever They Desire
In a valley in the Divine Offering Land.
Two figures were surrounded by a group of people. They were injured and looked exhausted. At this moment, it seemed like they were cornered with no escape.
"Hand over the item, and we'll spare your life!"
A middle-aged man, the leader of the group, stepped forward and looked at the two veiled-woman in front of him coldly. He did not expect that despite his and everyone else's efforts, they failed to obtain the treasure. Instead, it fell into the hands of the two women, who seemed to be sectless cultivators. Fortunately, he was lucky and managed to track them down with the help of his men.
The middle-aged man did not rashly attack the duo since the treasure was kept in a spatial ring. If they died, the spatial ring would self-destruct, and the treasure would be destroyed.
One of the women said with a sneer, "We're going to die either way. Why should we give the treasure to you?"
Despite the danger, the injuries, and the lack of ability to deal with the group of people, the woman's gaze was fearless and calm.
Similarly, the other woman was very calm as well. However, a hint of resignation could be seen in her eyes.
They wore veils that covered their faces, only revealing half of their faces. Even then, it was easy to tell that they were both beautiful.
"If you don't hand it over, I'll make sure both of you die an excruciating death," the middle-aged man said threateningly as killing intent shone in his eyes.
"Sister Fei'er, don't waste time with him," the woman, who seemed somewhat resigned, said as she shook her head. Then, she raised her hand and brought out a specially crafted jade token before crushing it.
The other woman sighed. "I didn't expect that we'd need his help so soon even though there are two of us. Huan'er and Tian Wu who are wandering the world alone might have even sought for his help yet..."
Swoosh!
In the next moment, a gust of wind blew past, and the space began to distort. Not long after, the silhouette of a man suddenly appeared and solidified into a person.
"How's your time outside? Did you have fun?"
A tall and handsome young man dressed in a purple robe appeared, smiling at the two women. It was as though he did not see the people staring menacingly at them at all.
"Our plan failed. We underestimated them..." one of the women said with a sigh as she removed her veil. She was stunning, making the surroundings pale in comparison.
The middle-aged man was stunned by the woman. However, he frowned, quickly regaining his senses. This was not the time to be distracted after all. He shifted his gaze to Duan Ling Tian and cupped his fists together as he said, "Sir, you are..."
Before the middle-aged man finished speaking, the space around him rippled and distorted. In just a moment, he suddenly exploded.
The others were shocked by the terrifying scene. However, before they regained their senses, a wave of spatial energy swept toward them as well.
When the spatial energy brushed past the two women, they were completely unharmed. Unfortunately, the same could not be said about the group of people. All of them exploded in just an instant.
Not long after, the pungent smell of blood permeated the air in the valley.
Duan Ling Tian furrowed his brows slightly and raised his hand. With just a wave, he and the two women vanished into thin air.
In the next moment, they appeared outside the valley.
"Do you still plan to continue wandering outside?" Duan Ling Tian asked.
The two women were none other than his wives, Ke'er and Li Fei.
When the four women decided to explore the world, Li Fei and Ke'er decided to travel together while Feng Tian Wu and Huan'er decided to travel alone.
"Of course!" Li Fei said with bright eyes, "There are so many interesting things to see! Moreover, the Divine Offering Land is part of your Little World anyway. We don't have to worry about danger."
"Brother Tian, Sister Fei'er and I will continue traveling a little longer. We'll return to accompany you after we're done with our adventure," Ke'er said with a smile.
"Alright," Duan Ling Tian said with a smile and a nod, "If you miss me, you can summon me at any time. You don't have to wait until you encounter danger."
"Alright," Ke'er said.
Unexpectedly, Li Fei shook her head and said, "No! Before parting ways from Tian Wu and Huan'er, we made a bet to see who summoned you the most times."
Duan Ling Tian laughed, unaware of the four women's bet until now. He asked, "What are the stakes?"
"I'm not telling you," Li Fei said mysteriously.
The mischievous twinkle in Li Fei's eyes reminded him of the time they got together in the mundane realm. Time flew by, and in just a blink of an eye, so many years had passed. At that time, he was faced with various obstacles with every step he took, but now, he had broken free of all restrictions.
"Alright, should I leave now?" Duan Ling Tian asked with a smile. He thought the two women would ask him to stay a little longer, but it seemed like they were eager for him to leave.
After all, they were no longer forced to be separated from him and could see him whenever they wanted to.
...
Shortly after parting ways with the two women, Duan Ling Tian received a message from Xiao Mu Bai, causing him to frown.
'One dead and one missing?'
Xiao Mu Bai had just informed Duan Ling Tian that the two supreme powerhouses who guarded the gateway to the God Defying World had been attacked. One of them died, and the other was missing. The culprit acted swiftly and left no traces behind. The culprit was already gone by the time Xiao Mu Bai arrived.
