Just as the four of them were about to choose any of the light barriers, the primordial supreme's aged voice interrupted, “Hold on.”
“Supreme Lord, what is your command?”
“Supreme lord, what orders do you have?” Celestial Master Lingxia and Chaos Celestial Master stood up together, turning to look at the primordial supreme, bowing as they inquired.
The primordial supreme stroked his beard and smiled, looking at Xuan Yuan Rou and said, “In theory, I am merely a spectator and should not interfere in Lingxia's affairs.”
“However, I still believe that since all four have reached the top four, shouldn’t they be given enough time to recover their strength? They should compete only after restoring their powers to peak condition.”
“After all, the strengths of the four are quite close; only in this way can we see who among them is the true genius.”
Hearing this, Celestial Master Lingxia respectfully replied, “The supreme lord speaks rightly; it is my oversight. I will do as you say.”
“Mm, that would be very good.” After the primordial supreme nodded, he sent a message to Xuan Yuan Rou, saying, “Little one, my disciple holds you in very high regard, which is why I am giving you this opportunity to recover your strength.”
“Please do not let my disciple down.”
Upon hearing this, Xuan Yuan Rou was overwhelmed with emotion, her beautiful eyes shimmering with tears.
She was excited because her daughter had noticed her.
Simply being noticed brought Xuan Yuan Rou to the brink of tears, and she sent a message, “Thank you, supreme lord.”
After saying this, Xuan Yuan Rou looked at Snow Shadow Celestial Master with tearful eyes and sent a message, “Thank you, celestial master, for your favor.”
Snow Shadow Celestial Master smiled and replied through a message, “You’re welcome, Xuan Yuan Rou. I feel a sense of familiarity when I see you, which is why I helped.”
“Just don’t let me down, okay?”
Hearing her daughter say that she found her “familiar,” Xuan Yuan Rou restrained herself from shedding tears and replied, “I will certainly do my best.”
After sending the message, Xuan Yuan Rou's heart cried out, “Ying'er, my precious daughter… I really want to hug you.”
Then, Xuan Yuan Rou stabilized her mind, sat cross-legged, closed her beautiful eyes, and thought, “Daughter, wait for your mother.”
“When mother becomes powerful in the future, I will appear before you and recognize you, then take you away from the side of the primordial supreme!”
With that determination, Xuan Yuan Rou steadied her mind and began to fervently absorb the heaven and earth divine essence to recover her strength…
At this moment, Yuwen Shu and Mu Zihua, who had not fully recovered their strength, were extremely excited!
Yuwen Shu turned to look at Tan Yun, a smug look on his face, and sent a message, “Kid, truly heaven is helping me!”
“Hahaha, if I met the fully restored you now, I might really lose to you!”
“But it seems now even the heavens are helping me, hahaha!”
“Just wait until I recover my strength, and I will meet you and then destroy you!”
After sending the message, Yuwen Shu sat cross-legged with a smile.
Tan Yun sneered and sent a message, “Yuwen Shu, no matter whether you recover your strength or not, the final result will only be one: I will personally kill you!”
“Arrogant!” Yuwen Shu scoffed at the message and began to absorb the heaven and earth divine essence to recover his strength.
“Hmph, kid, just hope you don’t encounter me next, or I will make you die a very unpleasant death.” Mu Zihua said with a devilish smile, waving the folding fan in his hand as he passed by Tan Yun, then sat down to recover his strength.
“Want to kill me?” Tan Yun chuckled and sat down cross-legged, closing his eyes to concentrate.
…
At the seating area, Mu Long Divine King, supreme divine king, Yuwen Divine King, Jiang Long Divine King, Ma Boshan, Zhan Peng, Gongsun Zhuanglie, these divine kings and family heads who wanted to put Tan Yun to death, were secretly exchanging messages.
