At the same time, Tan Yun noticed at a glance that the woman in the white dress was an eighth-rank saint king, and the three young men on her Divine Vessel were ninth-rank saint kings!
Furthermore, Tan Yun was not unfamiliar with the woman in white; on the contrary, she was quite familiar. This was because the woman in white was the cousin of Yuwen Shu, the son of Yuwen Divine King. When Yuwen Shu pursued Xuan Yuan Rou in the past, Yuwen Xi often accompanied him, hence Xuan Yuan Rou became well-acquainted with her.
Yuwen Xi and the others were unaware that Yuwen Shu had been incapacitated by Tan Yun, and they came to participate in the God-Eating Abyss treasure hunt with the intent to kill Tan Yun and Xuan Yuan Rou!
In the eyes of Yuwen Divine King, the true culprit behind his son's incapacitation was not Tan Yun, but Xuan Yuan Rou. It was because of Xuan Yuan Rou that Tan Yun had crippled his son while in Wooden Beacon Military City.
“Tan Yun, this woman is called Yuwen Xi, and she is Yuwen Shu's cousin.” Xuan Yuan Rou communicated through thought, “Although she is only an eighth-rank saint king, she possesses the strength to defeat ordinary ninth-rank saint kings. She will be difficult to deal with.”
“Moreover, she wields an Inferior Grade Celestial Master Divine Vessel, which is a rank higher than our Divine Vessels. Coupled with her much higher cultivation level, the speed at which she maneuvers her Divine Vessel is at least sixty percent faster than our Supreme Human Sovereign Divine Vessel. We cannot escape.”
Upon hearing this, a trace of killing intent flashed in Tan Yun's starry eyes, and he conveyed, “Then let’s fight…”
Before Tan Yun could finish speaking, a mocking voice suddenly echoed from behind, “What a lively scene!”
“Jing Yun, it seems you've run into trouble. Do you need us to step in?”
Tan Yun turned back to see a youth in a brocade robe, at the ninth-rank saint king realm, riding a Divine Vessel and rushing towards him. Behind the brocade-robed youth stood two other young men with murderous intent, who were also ninth-rank saint kings!
The three of them were not unfamiliar to Tan Yun and Xuan Yuan Rou; they were all from the Primordial Chaos Divine Realm. Tan Yun had met them before heading to the God-Eating Abyss at the Supreme Military City.
The first was Jiang Guo Kun, the nephew of Jiang Long Divine King.
The second was Ma Tianyun, the first powerhouse at the saint king realm from the residence of the head of the Ma family, Ma Boshan.
The third was Zhan Wuyan, the top expert from Zhan Peng's household.
Tan Yun and Xuan Yuan Rou understood that the three had come with the intent to eliminate them!
Jiang Guo Kun's face turned cold as he pointed a finger angrily at Tan Yun, cursing, “Jing Yun, you bastard! You killed my cousin Jiang Fei Xu back then, and then during Li Shiyin and Li Shimin’s birthday celebration, you killed my uncle's adopted son Jiang Xu!”
“Today, I want you to be unable to die well!”
At this moment, Ma Tianyun, standing behind Jiang Guo Kun, narrowed his eyes at Tan Yun, his gaze icy, “Jing Yun, not only did you kill my eldest young master Ma Lin at the birthday celebration of Li Shimin and Li Shiyin, but you also killed my second young master Ma Xiang in Azure Sun Market!”
“Today, I, Ma Tianyun, will take your head to avenge the two young masters!”
Zhan Wuyan flipped his right hand, and a Divine Sword appeared, pointing at Tan Yun as he shouted, “Jing Yun, you little bastard, you dare to kill our eldest and second young masters!”
“Our family head and the supreme divine king are both favored by Celestial Master Lingxia. Killing our eldest and second young masters means I could kill you a hundred times and still not feel satisfied!”
The eldest young master he referred to was Zhan Zuyun, and the second young master was Zhan Zutian.
Tan Yun's lips curled into a cold smile as he looked at the seven people surrounding him and said coldly, “Got it, you are all sent by Yuwen Divine King, Zhan Peng, Ma Boshan, and Jiang Long Divine King to kill me.”
