Chapter 1215 - 1117: Envoys from the Celestial Dragon Association Arrive!
"You both know already?"
Li Da looked at Li Min and Yang Tian with some surprise.
Li Min’s whole body trembled. She realized something and stared tightly at Li Da: "Dad, am I actually your daughter or not?!"
Li Da was silent for a long time. In the end he sighed and said, "Sigh, since you both already know, it’s fine to tell you. Daughter, I’m actually your uncle, and your biological father is none other than the Sect Leader of the Celestial Dragon Association, Lin Zhenbang."
"Twenty-three years ago, your mother smuggled herself from the slums into the upper-class elite district. Because of her peerless looks, she caught Lin Zhenbang’s eye."
"At the time, your mother was a waitress at a hotel under the Celestial Dragon Association. After she had relations with Lin Zhenbang, she became pregnant with you."
"Lin Zhenbang wanted to take your mother as a concubine, but his official wife, Xiao Qian, did not agree to this marriage. She investigated your mother’s background and labeled her as a smuggler from the slums!"
"Your mother was driven out of the upper-class district. Xiao Qian used all her power to completely cut off Lin Zhenbang’s thoughts of looking for your mother."
Hearing this, Li Min was extremely furious.
She clenched her fists.
Yang Tian held Li Min’s fist. "Big Boss..."
"I’m fine."
Li Min shook her head and walked out.
Yang Tian followed behind her.
"First Boss, Second Boss!"
The people around, seeing Li Min and Yang Tian, all bowed respectfully.
Li Min came to the backyard. She raised her head and looked up. Between the tall buildings, she vaguely saw that "Heaven Net" that separated the slums from the upper-class elite district.
"Lin Zhenbang, my mother died because of you!"
Li Min said coldly.
Twenty-three years ago, after giving birth to Li Min, her mother, tormented by depression, chose to commit suicide before Li Min was even one year old.
Today she finally understood why her mother took her own life.
It was completely because of Lin Zhenbang!
Yang Tian glanced at Li Min, but didn’t say anything, just quietly stood beside her.
Only, at this moment, a tearing screech suddenly sounded from behind.
Yang Tian turned around and looked toward that patch of woods, and said coldly, "Since you’re here, come out."
Li Min also looked toward the woods warily.
Before long, three men walked out from the trees. The one in the middle had snow-white hair yet an immortal-like bearing; the two flanking him were clearly his subordinates.
As soon as he appeared, he carefully sized up Li Min, his eyes full of excited light.
"Who are you?"
Yang Tian frowned when he saw the old man wearing a Daoist Robe, with a dragon character embroidered on his chest.
"He’s from the Celestial Dragon Association."
Li Min, however, recognized the emblem on the old man’s Daoist Robe at a glance.
"The Celestial Dragon Association?" Yang Tian was inwardly shocked. Li Min was extremely likely to be the daughter of the Celestial Dragon Association’s Sect Leader. "The people from the Celestial Dragon Association came this fast?"
"You’re Li Min?"
The old man ignored Yang Tian and stared intently at Li Min.
"That’s right, I’m Li Min."
Li Min nodded.
"Mm." The old man also nodded, and said respectfully, "Then please come back to the Celestial Dragon Association with me. The Sect Leader wants to see you. He sensed that your Soul Divine Technique has awakened and ordered me to personally bring you back."
"Go back to the Celestial Dragon Association?"
Li Min fell silent.
She was born here, raised here. For twenty-three years, she had never left this place.
If the Celestial Dragon Association’s Sect Leader was really her father, then her mother was killed by him!
Thinking of this, Li Min shook her head. "I won’t go back. My father’s name is Li Da. I’m just a poor girl born in the slums!"
"That’s no longer up to you."
The old man smiled.
Yang Tian frowned. He ran his Divine Sense into the old man’s body to probe, but couldn’t determine what realm the old man’s cultivation was at.
And since the other party was from the Celestial Dragon Association, Yang Tian didn’t want to expose himself yet, so he had no intention of using the Nuwa Divine Technique.
"What’s this young man to you?"
The old man suddenly looked at Yang Tian standing next to Li Min.
"What are you trying to do?"
Li Min sensed something was wrong.
"You seem very nervous about him? That’s good enough."
The old man said, then flew toward Yang Tian. He reached out and grabbed, seizing Yang Tian by the throat.
At that moment, Yang Tian wanted to unleash the Nuwa Divine Technique to resist the old man.
But thinking that the old man’s cultivation was extremely mysterious, and that he was a powerhouse of the Celestial Dragon Association, Yang Tian restrained the thought. After all, the old man only wanted to take Li Min back. He shouldn’t kill Yang Tian, but just use him to force Li Min to submit.
"Let him go right now. I’ll go back with you this instant!"
Li Min said anxiously.
"Hehe, that’s better." The old man released Yang Tian. With just one glance, he’d seen that Yang Tian was only at the peak of the Breath Refining Realm. In the Divine Realm, a Martial Artist at the peak of the Breath Refining Realm was no different from trash, so he didn’t spare Yang Tian another look. Instead he said respectfully, "Miss Li, please board the airship."
"Yang Tian, I’ll be back soon."
Li Min said, then walked toward the airship.
However, just as she was boarding, the old man suddenly said to the two men beside him, "Li Min’s uncle, Li Da, will interfere with her. You two go kill him."
"Yes!"
The two men nodded respectfully.
Although they spoke using Divine Sense, Yang Tian still heard them.
A cold gleam flashed in his eyes. It seemed Li Min’s awakening of the Soul Divine Technique was not a good thing for the Rose Gang.
Very likely, the Celestial Dragon Association would wipe out the Rose Gang!
After giving his orders, the old man boarded the airship and flew toward the upper-class district with Li Min.
Once the old man left, Yang Tian stood up and blocked the two men’s path.
"You plan to stand in our way?"
The two men’s faces darkened.
"I don’t want to fight. Get lost, all of you."
Yang Tian said coldly.
Facing the old man, Yang Tian had scruples and didn’t use the Nuwa Divine Technique. But as for these two young men, he was completely confident he could kill them and silence them afterward.
"You’ve got quite the arrogant mouth."
The taller one at the side started forward toward Yang Tian.
But his companion behind him stopped him. "Senior Brother, you go kill Li Da. Leave this ignorant brat to me."
"This brat just now in front of the Slaughter Elder was so scared he collapsed like a dog, and now he dares to be arrogant before us? Junior Brother, chop off his head and bring it to me!"
With that, the Senior Brother flew into the distance to kill Li Da.
Yang Tian frowned and was just about to give chase.
But the man behind had already blocked his path. "Kid, don’t bother chasing. Today is the day you die!"
Yang Tian ran his Divine Sense into the man’s body and saw that the other was an expert of the Solid Essence Realm, mid-stage at that—stronger than Long Wu. "Your Celestial Dragon Association does have some strength, but this is not a place you can just barge into."
"Oh? You’re this arrogant, kid. Report your name."
The man said coldly.
"My name is Yang Tian."
Yang Tian said indifferently.
"Yang Tian? You’re that Yang Tian who killed Long Wu? But your cultivation is only at the peak of the Breath Refining Realm. How could you have killed Long Wu?" the man said, then rushed at Yang Tian. "Let me see if Long Wu really died at your hands!"
