Memories of the past with his wife flooded his mind, stirring emotions within him.
As he stood there, the surroundings grew quiet, the only sound being the gentle rustle of the wind. The divine mountain loomed majestically above, its peak hidden among the swirling clouds, a sight that evoked both awe and nostalgia.
"Tan Yun," Bai Cheng Divine King called softly, pulling him back from his reverie. "We have arrived. This is the place where we will hold the celebration."
Tan Yun nodded, his heart heavy with mixed feelings. The grandeur of the mountain was overwhelming, yet it reminded him of moments long gone, moments he cherished deeply.
"Thank you, Your Excellency," he replied, his voice steady but tinged with emotion. "It's truly magnificent."
Bai Cheng Divine King smiled, noting the emotions playing across Tan Yun's face. "The wansui birthday celebration is not just an event; it is a gathering of memories, a tribute to those who have come before us."
Tan Yun took a deep breath, trying to compose himself. The weight of the past mingled with the excitement of the present, creating a unique blend of feelings that he found hard to articulate.
As they ascended the mountain, the atmosphere shifted, becoming more vibrant with the anticipation of the celebration. Celestial gods and high deities gathered, their laughter and chatter echoing through the air, filling it with a sense of joy and festivity.
Tan Yun felt a warmth in his chest as he joined the throng, the mingling of familiar faces and new ones making him feel alive. Yet, in the back of his mind, the memory of his wife lingered, a bittersweet reminder of what once was.
"Bai Cheng, do you think she would have loved this?" he asked suddenly, unable to hold back his thoughts.
The divine king paused, his expression softening. "She would have been proud of you, Tan Yun. Remember, love transcends time and space. Her spirit is here with us today."
With those words, Tan Yun felt a glimmer of solace wash over him. He looked up at the sky, as if searching for a sign, a whisper of her presence in the wind.
As the festivities began, he immersed himself in the celebration, allowing the joy around him to uplift his spirit. He danced and laughed, surrounded by friends and allies, all while cherishing the memories of a love that would never fade.
In that moment, under the celestial glow of the divine mountain, Tan Yun realized that while the past held his heart, the present was filled with hope, and the future was still unwritten.
"Yun'er, don't you think this mountain is more magnificent than you could have imagined?" Bai Cheng Divine King kindly remarked as he noticed Tan Yun lost in contemplation.
"Yes." Tan Yun nodded and said, "I've heard that this mountain is called Primordial Chaos Divine Mountain, and its summit is the highest point in the Primordial Chaos Divine Realm, also known as the peak of the Primordial Chaos Divine Realm."
"And the Primordial Chaos Divine Manor is built upon the summit of the Divine Realm, a magnificent manor renowned as the first manor among the three great divine realms."
"This manor was constructed by the Primordial Supreme and his wife, the God King of Time and Space..."
Before Tan Yun could finish speaking, Bai Cheng Divine King's expression changed drastically. He quickly covered Tan Yun's mouth and transmitted a sound, saying, "Yun'er, you are correct, but you must remember, never mention the Primordial Supreme in Primordial Chaos Divine City. If this reaches the ears of Celestial Master Lingxia, it would be a death sentence!"
Hearing this, Tan Yun hurriedly put on an anxious expression and nodded repeatedly.
However, in his heart, Tan Yun was seething with anger!
Celestial Master Lingxia had betrayed him, yet she continued to reside in the Primordial Chaos Divine Manor that he had built with his own hands!
"Among those who have betrayed me, I hate Zhan Peng, the Supreme Divine King, and Celestial Master Lingxia the most. You all wait for me!"
"I will make you wish for death and find no escape sooner or later!"
