Chapter 313: Chapter 279 Almost sent the old man away!_2
Xiao Changting looked at Kong Lianqing with some surprise, “This isn’t like you.”
Kong Lianqing still shook his head, “Have you ever seen anyone who doesn’t understand a primary Divine Array, yet masters a secondary Divine Array?”
“How could that be possible? The Array Path is vast and profound. Not understanding a primary Divine Array means lacking the foundation of an Array Divine Master, so how could one possibly master a secondary Divine Array? That’s building castles in the air.”
As Xiao Changting spoke, his expression suddenly became odd, pointing upwards at Li Cheng, “You mean him?”
Kong Lianqing relished Xiao Changting’s odd expression, nodding with satisfaction as she slightly raised her chin.
Receiving Kong Lianqing’s affirmation, Xiao Changting’s eyes widened, instantly understanding. How intense must one’s comprehension be to master a secondary Divine Array without being an Array Divine Master?
Bang!
At that moment, the bell sounded again!
Xiao Changting hurriedly looked over, “Five tolls… jackpot… jackpot…”
His voice trembled a bit. Five tolls – in the history of the Kongqian Heaven Dynasty, only two had reached five tolls, and Li Cheng was the third!
Swallowing with some difficulty, Xiao Changting cast a glance toward the lake.
Kong Lianqing did not notice Xiao Changting’s gaze and asked, “What’s the limit of the Demon Suppression Bell’s tolls?”
“Legend has it that nine tolls is the limit, but looking across the entire Xuankong Domain, within countless Divine Dynasties, the highest ever is just five tolls, so nine tolls are only a legend,” Xiao Changting said.
By the lakeside, Linfeng’s face broke into a broad smile, “Five tolls, the Demon-suppressing Department of our Kongqian Heaven Dynasty will definitely lead the Xuankong Domain in the future!”
The Demon-suppressing Department exists in every Divine Dynasty, but it’s not established by the Dynasties themselves, but rather by the big shots standing at the top of the pyramid in the Divine Realm.
The original intention of establishing the Demon-suppressing Department was to suppress all Evil Cultivators in the world, but those big shots naturally wouldn’t personally interfere, so they left the management of the Demon-suppressing Department to their subordinates. Over time, the Demon-suppressing Department spread throughout all Divine Dynasties, each managed and developed by their respective Dynasties.
Now it seems that those big shots only played a leading role. The Demon-suppressing Departments of different Dynasties on the surface are unrelated, but when faced with great evils or demons, they naturally join forces to deal with them.
That’s why Linfeng could say that the Demon-suppressing Department of the Kongqian Heaven Dynasty would be the hidden leader of the Xuankong Domain.
“This girl, bringing such a monster, has made a great achievement!” Linfeng muttered to himself.
Kong Lianqing glanced at Li Cheng, then turned to Xiao Changting, “Chairman, where does the legend of the nine tolls come from? Can Li Cheng trigger nine tolls?”
“At the inception of the Demon-suppressing Department, those big shots used their Great Divine Power to create countless replica Demon Suppression Bells, saying that the limit was nine tolls, but in the history of the Demon-suppressing Department, there should not have been nine tolls – eight tolls, however, did occur.”
“Right now this young man has already triggered five tolls, and the frequency has also slowed down; it probably won’t toll again.”
Kong Lianqing, aware of the origin of the Demon-suppressing Department, lit up, “If Li Cheng could trigger nine tolls, would those creators find out?”
“I already told you it won’t toll again,” Xiao Changting said.
Bang!
No sooner had he finished speaking than the Demon Suppression Bell rang again, as if slapping Xiao Changting hard across the face.
But Xiao Changting was overjoyed, dancing with excitement, momentarily at a loss for words.
“Six six six…”
“Hmm!”
…
Bang!
Xiao Changting had yet to recover from his astonishment when the seventh toll sounded!
By the lakeside, Linfeng could barely stand still, pacing back and forth quickly, “Seven tolls, it’s good that we’ve concealed the heavens’ will and sealed the Demon Suppression Bell. Should I go and meet that young chap? But with Lianqing present, it would be awkward for me to show up.”
Xiao Changting gasped for breath, “My gracious, that was nearly the end of me!”
“Aren’t you a Divine King? Can’t you stay calm?” Kong Lianqing retorted irritably, the venerable Chairman looking quite undignified.
Xiao Changting didn’t squabble with Kong Lianqing, quickly steadying his mind and taking a deep breath, “Girl, you have no idea what seven tolls represent. It’s easy for you to talk without knowing the pain.”
Kong Lianqing’s lips curved slightly, “If it tolls again, maybe it’ll send you off.”
“If it could toll again, I’d accept being sent off, dying with a smile!”
Bang!
The Demon Suppression Bell actually tolled, the eighth toll!
Xiao Changting’s eyes bulged, his body already somewhat unsteady.
“Girl, my cervical spine isn’t good; keeping my neck raised is too tiring. I’ll just lie down first!”
Even before his words finished, Xiao Changting had already lain down on the ground, breathing heavily, his gaze fixed intently on Li Cheng.
“With such a heart, how did he become a Divine King?” Kong Lianqing scoffed with disdain.
It was clear that he was so agitated that he couldn’t stand steady, using the opportunity to lie down.
And there, his pair of feet kicking, gave him away.
Kong Lianqing even began to wonder if the mighty Divine King could really be sent away just like that?
By the lake, Linfeng’s expression changed drastically. Eight tolls, the significance of this was too great, if it weren’t for Kong Lianqing being present, he would have had to show himself.
Taking a deep breath, Linfeng murmured, “I’ll invite him to the palace another day to avoid embarrassing Lianqing…”
Bang!
Just then, the Demon Suppression Bell rang again, reaching the legendary nine tolls!
Linfeng couldn’t hold back any longer. His figure vanished on the spot, and when he reappeared, he was already beneath the Demon Suppression Bell.
Xiao Changting hurriedly got up, his hand trembling as he pointed upwards, “You desired a seven or eight-star Demon-suppressing Envoy, old man got you a nine-star one. Heh, satisfied now?”
Nine tolls, in the future, would definitely ensure one could become a nine-star Demon-suppressing Envoy!
A nine-star Demon-suppressing Envoy, what does that represent? It signifies that the Demon-suppressing Department of the Kongqian Heaven Dynasty will lead the Demon-suppressing Departments of all other Divine Dynasties, as well as the fact that the Kongqian Heaven Dynasty will reign supreme above all other Divine Dynasties!
How could Linfeng be dissatisfied?
He glanced at Li Cheng, still sitting with eyes closed, sensing the Demon Suppression Bell, before turning his gaze to Kong Lianqing, “Not even a greeting for your father?”
Kong Lianqing performed a formal bow, “I greet Father Emperor!”
Immediately after, Kong Lianqing turned her head away.
Linfeng couldn’t help but feel resigned. It was his indulgence that had spoiled her so. Would any other prince or princess dare such an attitude?
Sigh!
The daughter he’d spoiled was his to handle!
What a sin!
With a somber sigh, Kong Lianqing turned back, “Don’t let Li Cheng find out my true status.”
Linfeng’s heart stirred, “It can be done, but Father Emperor has a condition!”
Kong Lianqing’s brows knitted slightly, “Don’t push too far, Kong Linfeng. Either keep it secret or kill me, your choice!”
Kong Linfeng’s eyelid twitched as an aura of majesty suddenly filled the space between his brows.
Seeing the situation turn dire, Xiao Changting hastily said, “Kong Lianqing, calling His Majesty by his name, what kind of propriety is that?”

But Xiao Changting’s tone shifted, and he smiled, saying, “Linfeng, you as well. Why state conditions? Lianqing brought us this kid and that’s a great merit!”
Kong Lianqing shot Xiao Changting a glance. Don’t you always call my father by his name?
Kong Linfeng was originally angry but seemed to think of something, sighed, and wondered to himself, why must the father-daughter relationship be so difficult?
‘Forget it!” Kong Linfeng slightly shook his head, turning his gaze to Yin Yue, who quickly said, “I apologize, naturally deaf, gentleman, were you speaking to me? Could you repeat using a sound transmission?”
Kong Lianqing snorted with laughter then immediately restrained herself, looking at Yin Yue with a strange look.
A twitch appeared at the corners of Kong Linfeng’s mouth. What a piece of work, this apparently thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl, was she truly a sly one?
Knowing she’d seen what she shouldn’t have, she claimed to have been deaf since birth.
“She is Li Cheng’s disciple. If you dare touch her, you’ll certainly lose your future nine-star Demon-suppressing Envoy!” Kong Lianqing spoke coldly as usual.
“What do you take Father Emperor for? He meant to invite her to try the Demon Suppression Bell as well,” Kong Linfeng said, brushing aside the previous displeasure.
Xiao Changting nodded in agreement, “Though she’s not in the Heaven God State, there’s no harm in trying.”
Yin Yue’s eyes lit up, and she nodded eagerly, “Alright, after my master comes down, I’ll give it a try.”
Everyone was taken aback. So she’s no longer pretending to be deaf?
“But strangely, it’s already nine tolls, why hasn’t he come down yet?” Xiao Changting said.
Bang! Bang…
Suddenly, the Demon Suppression Bell rang again, four consecutive times!
Xiao Changting was stupefied. Nine tolls were known to be the peak; it was common knowledge. But now there were thirteen tolls in total, what was this all about?
Kong Linfeng was equally shocked, locking eyes with Xiao Changting, both seeing the confusion in the other’s eyes.
