Tan Yun looked at the two with a slight smile and clasped his fists, saying, "It's been a long time since we last met. I hope I'm not disappointing you."
"Damn!" Zhan Zusheng thought of the events that had transpired in the Gods' Abyss and cursed angrily, "You brat have some nerve to come back here!"
Tan Yun shrugged and replied with a smile, "I’ve always had a big appetite for danger. Today is the celestial master your excellency's children's birthday celebration, so whether I come or not has nothing to do with you."
"Are you so conceited that you think you can speak for the celestial master your excellency?"
With a single remark, Tan Yun shot back at Zhan Zusheng, placing a big hat on him!
In the second row of seats, Li Shiyin watched Tan Yun with beautiful eyes, secretly thinking, "Interesting, what a sharp tongue..."
"You better not slander my fiancé!" Bai Xuanqi pointed an angry finger at Tan Yun and looked at the supreme divine king, "Father, it was this brat who injured and insulted me back in the Gods' Abyss!"
"This brat escaped into the Devouring God Cave deep in the Gods' Abyss. I thought he was dead, but it turns out he survived!"
Upon hearing this, the supreme divine king, one of the ten divine kings, suddenly stood up, glaring at Tan Yun and scolding, "You have some nerve!"
"Whoosh!" Bai Cheng Divine King suddenly stood up, "Supreme Divine King, Yun'er is my person. His courage is beyond your imagination, but it’s not the 'dog courage' you mentioned!"
"Watch your words; don't go too far!"
Hearing this, the supreme divine king sneered, "Bai Cheng, this brat insulted my daughter; it’s only natural for me to reprimand him. And this brat is just your divine soldier; what right do you have to speak?"
Bai Cheng Divine King coldly snorted, "I have several descendants, yet none compare to Yun'er. In my heart, Yun'er is closer than my own grandchildren; why wouldn’t I have the right?"
At this moment, Celestial Master Lingxia took a deep breath and said, "Everyone sit down. This is a matter for the young people; let them handle it themselves!"
Upon hearing this, the two finally sat down.
Suddenly, Zhan Zusheng seemed to think of something and transmitted a message to Tan Yun, "Kid, you're dead meat!"
After transmitting his message, Zhan Zusheng turned towards the seated Jiang Long Divine King and cupped his fists, bowing deeply, "Uncle Jiang, I have important news to tell you."
Jiang Long Divine King frowned, "Nephew, what is it?"
"I know who killed your only son, Fei Xu!" As soon as Zhan Zusheng’s words fell, Jiang Long Divine King sprang to his feet, his expression changing drastically, his murky eyes filled with fury, "Who is it?"
Zhan Zusheng pointed at Tan Yun, "It's him, right here before our eyes!"
"Is this true?" Jiang Long Divine King gritted his teeth.
Zhan Zusheng solemnly replied, "I swear to heaven, if I lie, let the heavens strike me down!"
At these words, the entire hall was shocked!
It is well known that Jiang Long Divine King's son, Jiang Fei Xu, was killed in the Gods' Abyss, a fact that became common knowledge!
No one expected that the murderer would brazenly appear here!
"So it was him who did it." Seated, the enchanting Li Shiyin looked at Tan Yun and muttered to herself, "His courage is indeed as Bai Cheng Divine King said, too great."
Women share a common trait with cats: an insatiable curiosity about things.
At this moment, her curiosity made Li Shiyin particularly attentive to this third rank celestial god, whom she regarded as nothing more than an insignificant insect.
"You... I will kill you!!" Jiang Long Divine King almost screamed!
"You dare!" Bai Cheng Divine King shouted in anger, "As long as I’m here, you won’t touch a hair on Yun'er!"
Jiang Long Divine King was furious, his face turning red, "Bai Cheng! He isn't even your kin, are you really willing to turn against me for him?"
"I have said before, though Yun'er is not my grandson, in my heart, he is even closer than my own grandchildren!" Bai Cheng Divine King's words moved Tan Yun deeply, "So what if I have to turn against you?"
