"Little Qing, what's wrong with you?" Shen Subing asked, holding Fang Zhiqing's delicate hand.
In an instant, Fang Zhiqing's tears fell in droves, her eyes filled with uncontrollable anger. After a moment of silence, she said, "Sister-in-law, I was scratched on the face by the soul-snatching divine hound's claw."
"My parents despised me and wanted to abandon me, but it was my grandmother who raised me. Now, my grandmother has passed away."
Upon hearing this, Shen Subing was furious. "The soul-snatching divine hound is just your dog. This vile creature not only threatened the lives of your parents but also ruined your appearance!"
"Little Qing, is that beast still in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm?"
At this moment, not only was Shen Subing furious, but Tan Yun and the others were equally so!
"Sister-in-law, it is still in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm..." Fang Zhiqing appeared hesitant.
"What’s wrong?" Tan Yun suppressed his anger towards the soul-snatching divine hound and pressed further.
"Brother... that beast has already become the immortal emperor of the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm." Fang Zhiqing trembled with rage, "It should still be the Nine Heavens Immortal Emperor now."
"How infuriating!" Tan Yun clenched his fists tightly. "I built the Primordial Chaos Nine Heavens Immortal Realm with my own hands, and now a dog has become the immortal emperor!"
The reason Fang Zhiqing was hesitant before was that she had to admit it was her greatest humiliation!
Being kind-hearted, she never imagined that the dog she raised would betray her in the past and eventually become the Nine Heavens Immortal Emperor!
"Good, very good!" Tan Yun said coldly, "Just right, I can ascend from the Mystical Heavenly Continent and reach the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm."
"Little Qing, don't worry. I will eventually strip the dog immortal emperor of its flesh and bones, then let you kill it with your own hands!"
At this moment, since Fang Zhiqing was not in a position to reveal her appearance, Tan Yun and the others refrained from mentioning it further.
After all, girls tend to care a lot about their appearance.
"Thank you, brother." After saying this, Fang Zhiqing seemed to remember something and spoke softly, "Brother, there’s something I'm not sure if I should tell you. I’m afraid you might get angry if I do."
"Just say it. If it’s something really bad, I’ll try not to get angry." Tan Yun sat on the jade chair and smiled.
"Then I’ll say it." Fang Zhiqing said honestly, "Brother, the envoy from the Primordial Divine Realm who came to the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm back then was Celestial Master Lingxia."
"It was her!" Tan Yun's body shook, and he crushed the armrests of the jade chair with his hands!
Shen Subing said sharply, "This ungrateful little person really deserves to die!"
Tuoba Yingying nodded in agreement, "Yes, if there’s anyone most ungrateful, it must be Celestial Master Lingxia. Master once nurtured her so well, yet she betrayed him!"
At this moment, aside from Subing, Yingying, Zhiqing, the heavenly slayer demon ape, and the golden dragon spirit lion, the others and beasts did not know who Celestial Master Lingxia was but could guess she was someone very important to Tan Yun.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be so furious!
"Husband, who is Celestial Master Lingxia?" Tang Mengyi asked gently.
Tan Yun took a deep breath, suppressing the anger within him, and said in a deep voice, "She was a disciple I accepted back then."
"She was exceptionally intelligent, with an extraordinary talent for alchemical arts, so I taught her the alchemical arts, and eventually, she became a deity in the alchemical path."
"Later, she married a deity from the Primordial Divine Realm, and her husband is a spy planted in my Primordial Divine Realm by the Primordial Supreme!"
"In the end, she chose her husband over her master!"
"She betrayed the Primordial Divine Realm that raised her and colluded with her husband and the Primordial Supreme in treachery!"
"She is a humiliation that I, Tan Yun, can never erase in my life!"
