“Should I die, when you see Tan Yun, tell him that regardless of any grievances between us...”
“Make sure he takes good care of our daughter in the future!”
As soon as Xuan Yuan Rou finished speaking, the Heavenly Demon Vice Demon General raised its Heavenly Giant Palm and slammed it down toward her!
If struck, Xuan Yuan Rou would either die or be severely injured.
Though she had the strength to challenge opponents above her level, she was still only a second-class half-saint and was far from being the match for a sixth-class great saint like the Heavenly Demon Vice Demon General!
“Sister!”
“Sister…”
Xuan Yuan Ling Er and Xuan Yuan Chang Feng were heartbroken. Their eyes were filled with despair!
In Xuan Yuan Rou’s tear-blurred vision, there was a mix of unwillingness, reluctance, and despair!
She was unwilling because she had not found her father and had not clarified her doubts with Tan Yun!
She felt reluctance because, at this moment, the faces of Tan Yun and the Snow Shadow Celestial Master appeared in her mind...
Despair stemmed from her understanding that she was no match for the sixth-class great saint Heavenly Demon Vice Demon General; her death was certain!
At this critical moment, a familiar male voice roared from above their heads, “Rou'er, step back! Leave this beast to me!”
“Sister, he’s here! It’s him!” Xuan Yuan Chang Feng and Xuan Yuan Ling Er were filled with excitement.
With tears in her eyes, Xuan Yuan Rou looked up to the sky and saw Tan Yun in a white robe, accompanied by a Golden Skirt Maiden radiating the aura of a fifth-class great saint beast, descending from the heavens!
“Damn little brat, you dare to insult this Vice Demon General! Die!” The towering Heavenly Demon Vice Demon General bared its fangs and swung its colossal palm towards Tan Yun!
It was confident that with this one blow, it would obliterate the mere fourth-class half-saint human!
“Brother, I’ll deal with it!” Jing Lu’s beautiful eyes gleamed with killing intent.
Tan Yun quickly transmitted his voice, “I’ll handle it, you go kill the other Great Saints’ Vice Demons!”
“And that white-haired Vice Demon General has the highest strength. We’ll take it down together later; you go deal with the other Vice Demons first!”
Upon hearing this, Jing Lu transformed into a golden arc and flew toward the other Vice Demons!
At that moment, the Vice Demon General’s gigantic palm was already swinging towards Tan Yun!
“Go die, hahaha…” The Vice Demon General's malicious laughter was abruptly cut off, followed by a shriek, “Ah! How can you human be so powerful!”
“Bang!”
Amidst the splattering of blood, Tan Yun's body forcefully collided with the incoming giant hand, creating a massive hole!
“Disgusting creature, die for me!” Tan Yun penetrated through the giant palm, and as he shouted, he slashed through the void, instantly appearing above the Vice Demon General!
“Bang!”
Tan Yun lifted his right foot and stomped down heavily. Instantly, the gigantic head of the Vice Demon General shattered into pieces, its blood splattering as its mountain-like body crashed to the ground!
“Whoosh!”
Tan Yun swooped down from the void, appearing beside Xuan Yuan Rou. Seeing her pale, haggard, and injured, he anxiously asked, “Rou'er, how are you? Where are you hurt?”
“Is it serious? Do you know? I was really worried about you!”
Looking at Tan Yun, who was anxious and somewhat incoherent because of her, Xuan Yuan Rou tearfully replied, “I’m fine, don’t worry.”
Tan Yun suddenly pulled Xuan Yuan Rou into his embrace, saying deeply, “I’m sorry for being late and making you suffer.”
“I’m fine.” Xuan Yuan Rou, embraced by Tan Yun, let her tears fall.
“You’ve seen Xioa Si, right?” At that moment, Xuan Yuan Ling Er asked anxiously.
Tan Yun released Xuan Yuan Rou and looked at Xuan Yuan Ling Er, reassuring her, “You don’t need to worry, Xiao Si is currently in the Skyward Military City.”
Upon hearing this, Xuan Yuan Ling Er finally smiled through her tears.
