In the next moment, the great divine general Bai Feng, clad in battle armor, appeared right in front of him.
Bai Feng was currently in charge of the crucial task of rebuilding the city walls.
At that moment, the emblem on Bai Feng's helmet shone brightly.
Baifeng was currently in charge of the critical task of rebuilding the city walls.
At this moment, there was a glaring axe mark on his helmet, and his chest bore a bloody hole.
Tan Yun understood that Baifeng was an eighth-class saint emperor, yet he was injured. It seemed the outerworldly heavenly demons truly posed a significant threat!
"Uncle, I greet you," Tan Yun cupped his fists and asked, "How has the battle been over these years?"
Baifeng's expression turned grave. "An hour ago, we just managed to repel the heavenly demon army. Our Baijia Army suffered heavy losses, with 13 billion divine soldiers killed!"
"And among the 8 billion Mu Family Army that came to assist, the death toll has exceeded half, with the rest now in our Skyward Military City."
"Also, do not worry, your wives are all safe and sound, and they are currently in seclusion within the Elite Sacred Realm."
Hearing this, Tan Yun let out a sigh of relief. "Uncle, you are injured; you should recover as soon as possible."
"No, these minor injuries are not a concern," Baifeng said seriously. "The enemy may return at any moment; I need to supervise the construction of the city walls."
After speaking, Baifeng frowned and looked at Bai Xuanyi, saying, "Yun'er, isn't this the jewel of the Heartless Supreme God?"
"Yes," Tan Yun replied. "There were some incidents on my way back, so I invited my Junior Sister here."
"Oh," Baifeng acknowledged without further questioning and turned back to the hundreds of thousands of divine soldiers constructing the city wall, declaring, "Do not stop! The enemy may launch an attack at any time!"
"Yes, Great General!" The hundreds of thousands of divine soldiers responded, all looking up at Tan Yun with admiration.
After greeting everyone, Tan Yun retracted the Divine Vessel and entered the city with Bai Xuanyi. Soon, they flew to the summit of Skyward Divine Mountain and entered the Divine King's Mansion.
When Bai Cheng Divine King saw Tan Yun return, he was overjoyed, and even more excited to discover that Tan Yun had reached the fourth-class half-saint realm.
"I greet you, Divine King." Bai Xuanyi slightly bowed before Bai Cheng Divine King.
"No need for formality," Bai Cheng Divine King said with a smile, then conveyed to Tan Yun via sound transmission, "Yun'er, why did you bring her here?"
Tan Yun responded through sound transmission, "The Heartless Supreme God sent her to kill me, so I detained her and told that old man to trade something for her."
"Now I understand," Bai Cheng Divine King said after the sound transmission, looking at Tan Yun, "Yun'er, you should return to the Elite Sacred Realm's Jing Mansion to reunite with your family. I will come over in three hours; I have something for you to handle."
"This is the token to open the Elite Sacred Realm; take it and enter through the gate yourself."
Saying this, he handed Tan Yun a token.
Tan Yun accepted the token, smiling, "From now on, can I freely come and go from the Elite Sacred Realm?"
"Of course," Bai Cheng Divine King laughed. "By the way, with your current realm, you can join the Baijia Army's half-saint army. However, since you are now a disciple of the Celestial Master, you may choose not to enter the half-saint army if you wish."
Tan Yun replied, "No rules, no order. As a member of the Baijia Army, I must follow its regulations."
The reason Tan Yun said this was that he wanted to rely on his strength to conquer the Baijia Army and eventually command the elite troops.
"Well, since you said so, I will follow your wish, old man," Bai Cheng Divine King laughed.
Tan Yun chuckled, "But may I make a request?"
"You may speak," Bai Cheng Divine King replied.
Tan Yun said, "Can I focus on my cultivation for now and join the battlefield only when I become stronger?"
