Xuan Yuan Chang Feng took a step forward, holding Tan Yun's hand as he looked at Xuan Yuan Rou and said, "Sister City Lord, let me introduce you to my third brother."
"He is Tan Yun, the immortal vice general appointed personally by our uncle over a decade ago. At that time, although Tan Yun was only at the eighth-grade level of the punishment immortal realm, it is no exaggeration to say that his ability to challenge others beyond his level could be considered invincible among the ninth stage of the refining immortal realm."
Upon hearing this, Xuan Yuan Rou scrutinized Tan Yun, her beautiful eyes revealing shock and doubt. She slightly parted her lips and asked, "Vice General Tan, is what my third brother said true?"
"In response to the City Lord, what your third brother said is all true," Tan Yun replied respectfully.
At this moment, Xuan Yuan Chang Feng's next words stirred up a storm in the hearts of Xuan Yuan Rou and Xuan Yuan Ling Er!
Xuan Yuan Chang Feng looked at them and said, "Two cousins, the reason our uncle trusts Tan Yun so much is not just because of his ability to challenge beyond his level, but because he is a saint-level celestial sacred alchemist, saint-level celestial sacred artifact master, saint-level celestial sacred talisman master, and saint-level celestial sacred formation master."
Xuan Yuan Rou's beautiful eyes showed a look of shock as she turned to Tan Yun and asked, "Is what my third brother said true?"
"In response to the City Lord, what your third brother said is true," Tan Yun respectfully stated. "You can rest assured to go to the Lost Canyon; I will take good care of Xuan Yuan Immortal City."
Xuan Yuan Rou looked at Tan Yun with a serious expression. "Did you have experience commanding an army in the Mortal Plane before?"
Tan Yun truthfully replied, "I have. I was once a overlord in a Mortal Plane, commanding an army of over a hundred billion cultivators."
"Well, then I can rest easy," Xuan Yuan Rou nodded, looking at Tan Yun seriously. "During my absence, I hope you do not disappoint my uncle's trust."
"I temporarily entrust Xuan Yuan Immortal City to you."
Hearing this, Tan Yun nodded and said, "You can rest assured, City Lord."
Then, Xuan Yuan Rou immediately set off from the City Lord's Mansion, heading towards the distant Lost Canyon...
In the room, Xuan Yuan Chang Feng suddenly thought of something and looked at Tan Yun. "Brother Tan, there is something I must tell you. Sima Yongzheng's daughter, Sima Fei'er, is not dead; her pupils are exactly the dead gray color you mentioned."
A trace of coldness flashed in Tan Yun's eyes. "Is there any memory image regarding her?"
"Yes, just a moment," Xuan Yuan Chang Feng waved his left hand, and a burst of celestial power transformed into an image in the air.
Tan Yun looked at the eyes of the woman in the image and her sweet, delicate voice. He concluded that the person who wanted to kill him more than twelve years ago was indeed Sima Fei'er!
Tan Yun gritted his teeth and said, "You little vixen, I will catch you sooner or later and make you suffer!"
As he suppressed his anger, he noticed Xuan Yuan Chang Feng looking at the empty sleeve of his right arm with a somber expression.
"Brother Tan, I am now incapacitated, having lost an arm," Xuan Yuan Chang Feng said with a despondent look in his eyes. "Even if I use the enemy's right arm to replace it, it won't help; it can never compare to my own!"
"Wait, Brother Chang Feng, I guarantee I will find you a complete and undamaged right arm," Tan Yun said.
"Brother Tan, don't joke with me. I can't even find my right arm; how can it be reattached?" Xuan Yuan Chang Feng sighed sadly.
Tan Yun didn't answer but said softly, "Yingying, come out."
In the next moment, Tuoba Yingying, dressed in a white dress, flew out from within the Temporal-Spatial Holy Tower and stood elegantly before Tan Yun.
"What a beautiful woman..." Xuan Yuan Chang Feng's eyes widened as he stared at Tuoba Yingying and asked, "Brother Tan, who is this cold beauty?"
