"Alright, I will do as you say, big brother." The Heartless Supreme God spoke as he struck down Di Wulong, shattering his skull.
Afterward, Tan Yun summoned the Pavilion of Ascending to the Heavens. Once the Heartless Supreme God entered to recover from his injuries, he took Tan Yun and flew for half a month, passing through the teleportation array in the Nine Heavens Immortal Sea, arriving at Flowing River Immortal City!
Tan Yun, on the other hand, had transformed his appearance into that of a seventy-year-old man.
"Big brother, at our speed, we can reach Skyreach Immortal City in just ten days," the Heartless Supreme God said.
"Mm." Tan Yun nodded and said, "Third brother, you can enter the Pavilion of Ascending to the Heavens. I will call for you if necessary."
"Okay, big brother." The Heartless Supreme God vanished into thin air, entering the Pavilion of Ascending to the Heavens, and Tan Yun flew out of Flowing River Immortal City, heading towards Skyreach Immortal City...
Ten days later, the stars filled the sky.
In Skyreach Immortal City, at the City Lord's Mansion, the lights were bright.
In the Qianqian Immortal Pavilion, a beautiful girl in a blue skirt stood gracefully by the window, gazing at the vast starry sky, tears sliding down her exquisite face.
The girl was none other than Ouyang Qianjin: Ouyang Qianqian.
Ouyang Qianqian's ruby lips trembled, and a sorrowful yet melodious voice emerged:
"Tan Yun, I miss you so much, I really miss you."
"In a year and a half, I will be married. I regret not being able to tell you how much I like you before I left."
"Tan Yun, do you know? I grew up listening to your legend... Wuwu... I really love you..."
At the same time, Tan Yun, disguised as an old man, descended from the sky, facing two guards, and clasped his fists, saying, "I am an old friend of the young miss. Please inform her."
As soon as the guards heard it was a friend of the young miss, they immediately became respectful. "Please wait a moment."
Then, one of the guards entered the mansion.
A moment later, that guard stood outside the Qianqian Immortal Pavilion, bowing respectfully, "Miss, there is an old man outside who claims to be your friend and wants to see you."
Ouyang Qianqian raised her delicate hand, wiping away the tears at the corner of her eyes, and softly said, "I understand. Please take the guest to the Guest Hall, I will be there shortly."
After that, Ouyang Qianqian stepped out of her chamber. As she walked downstairs and just exited the pavilion, Ouyang Duantian happened to come by, smiling, "Daughter, where are you going so late?"
"Father, the guards just said someone is looking for me, so I wanted to take a look," Ouyang Qianqian replied truthfully.
"Oh." Ouyang Duantian casually asked, "Who is it?"
"I don't know," Ouyang Qianqian responded.
Ouyang Duantian chuckled, "Since I have nothing to do, why don't I accompany you?"
"Alright, Father." Ouyang Qianqian smiled and walked towards the Guest Hall with Ouyang Duantian.
On the way, Ouyang Duantian noticed his daughter's red eyes. He understood that there were only two reasons for her tears.
One, she did not want to marry the nine heavens immortal emperor.
Two, she could not bear to part with the man she loved, Tan Yun.
Ouyang Duantian did not say anything to comfort his daughter because he genuinely did not know how to.
The father and daughter silently entered the Guest Hall, where a stranger stood inside.
"Who are you?" Ouyang Qianqian frowned.
Tan Yun took a deep breath, looking into Qianqian's eyes with a gaze full of longing.
He tore off the fake beard, and his aged appearance seemed to reverse time, wrinkles fading away, and he regained his handsome visage in an instant.
"Tan Yun!" Ouyang Duantian's eyes widened in surprise.
Ouyang Qianqian's beautiful eyes also widened; she seemed to guess Tan Yun's intentions for coming, thinking, "I can't reveal my feelings for him; otherwise, I will bring him harm."
Immediately, Ouyang Qianqian's expression turned icy. "What do you want here?"
