“Shameless…”
Before Ke Yin could finish her sentence, she used her immortal sense to discover that Tan Yun, who stood at a towering height of four thousand zhang, suddenly shrank down to a normal human size. He was now completely naked, embracing Xuan Yuan Rou as they fled through the seawater!
“How can the Eight Heavens Immortal Emperor be so lecherous? Peeking at my body?” Tan Yun said seriously to Ke Yin.
“You... you rogue!” As Ke Yin angrily transmitted back, she subconsciously gave up on using her immortal sense to spy!
“Not good, I’ve fallen for the trick!” Ke Yin realized and when she released her immortal sense again, there was no trace of Tan Yun in the sea.
“Damn it!” Ke Yin was furious, releasing her immortal sense and carefully scanning the waters.
In her line of sight, there were only large immortal beasts, which seemed to have been startled, scattering and disappearing without a trace.
Ke Yin was furious, never expecting to lose track of him!
“I’m so angry, so angry!” Ke Yin clenched her delicate fists, her immortal sense sweeping through the ocean again and again, but still no sign of Tan Yun.
After a long while, Ke Yin seemed to have thought of something, a glimmer of realization appearing in her beautiful eyes. “Tan Yun must have hidden inside one of the immortal beasts to escape! Yes, it must be like that!”
Immediately, Ke Yin closed her eyes, releasing her immortal sense to its fullest extent, spreading it in an umbrella shape towards the sea ahead, extending for millions of immortal li. Soon, an unquestionable voice entered the minds of every immortal beast, “I am the Eight Heavens Immortal Emperor. All immortal beasts are to listen to my command, stop swimming and remain in place!”
“Xuan Yuan Rou, and the thief, I know you haven’t gone far. You are hiding inside one of the immortal beasts, and you cannot escape!”
As soon as Ke Yin's voice fell, thousands of immortal beasts floated quietly in the sea, as if silenced.
“Who among you has seen a man missing an arm, holding a woman?” Ke Yin said unyieldingly. “Speak up, and I will spare you. Otherwise, you will all die!”
At that moment, all the sea immortal beasts responded, claiming they had not seen him!
“How strange, where could they have hidden?” Ke Yin furrowed her brows tightly, and then released her immortal sense to its maximum, enveloping the sea...
At that moment, the injured Tan Yun was hiding at the bottom of the sea, inside the trunk of a giant tree.
He held his breath, concentrating. With a single thought, he sent the unconscious Xuan Yuan Rou into the Mustard Seed Hall of Time and Space and then transmitted to Xuan Yuan Hao Kong and the others, “Don’t come out; the Eight Heavens Immortal Emperor hasn’t left yet.”
At this moment, Tan Yun cautiously released his immortal sense, enveloping Ke Yin.
Because Tan Yun's great emperor soul was stronger than Ke Yin's, she did not notice that Tan Yun was spying on her.
For the next hour, Ke Yin sighed and then flew out of the sea, returning towards the Eight Heavens Immortal City...
There were three reasons for her departure.
First, she was worried that Tan Yun would lure her away and then attack the Eight Heavens Immortal City.
Second, she knew that even if she found Tan Yun, it would be difficult to catch up with him in the water.
Third, and most importantly, she was quite wary of Tan Yun's Spatial Prison, afraid of falling into an ambush!
After confirming that Ke Yin had left, Tan Yun breathed a sigh of relief. He then donned a purple robe and summoned the Mustard Seed Hall of Time and Space from his ear.
The Time-Space Divine Tower transformed into a height of one foot and landed inside the tree trunk.
Once Tan Yun entered the ninth level of the tower, he saw Xuan Yuan Rou severely injured and unconscious, lying on a bed.
By her side were Xuan Yuan Hao Kong, Ling Er, Long Wind, and Chu Xiaosa.
“Buzz—”
In the trembling void, Shen Subing, Dantai Xian'er, and all the others appeared from the hall to visit Xuan Yuan Rou.
