Tan Yun did not return with Bai Cheng Divine King to the teleportation array leading to the borderlands.
The scene shifted, and Mu Zhen’s expression grew serious as he observed the two figures in the memory image.
“Where did Tan Yun go?” he wondered aloud, sensing the importance of this moment.
Bai Cheng Divine King, noticing Mu Zhen’s curiosity, replied, “After arriving at the Hall of Time and Space, Tan Yun ventured into the Sea of Clouds. He had matters to attend to there.”
Mu Zhen nodded thoughtfully, intrigued by Tan Yun's choice.
“Tan Yun's actions are often unpredictable. I hope he knows what he is doing,” Mu Zhen remarked, his tone hinting at both concern and admiration.
Bai Cheng Divine King remained silent, his eyes focused on the memory image, contemplating the implications of Tan Yun’s decisions.
As the memory continued, the atmosphere grew tense, filled with anticipation for what lay ahead for Tan Yun.
The image faded, leaving Mu Zhen and Bai Cheng Divine King in a contemplative silence, pondering the paths chosen by those within the Divine Realm.
After watching, Mu Zhen said lightly, “Alright, this Celestial Master wishes to be alone for a while. You may leave now.”
“Junior obeys,” Bai Cheng Divine King stepped out of the Guest Hall, his murky eyes filled with anxiety. “Celestial Master Mu Zhen must have found evidence that Yun'er is the murderer!”
“What should I do? This child, Yun'er, is so careless that she left traces at the crime scene!”
At this moment, Bai Cheng Divine King was restless...
Inside the Guest Hall, Mu Zhen closed her beautiful eyes, and the memory image created by Bai Cheng Divine King appeared in her mind.
In the image, she keenly caught the detail of Tan Yun hesitating slightly when passing through the teleportation array to Titan Divine City at the Hall of Time and Space.
Additionally, she clearly noticed that Tan Yun was wearing the battle boots she had given him!
After a long while, Mu Zhen slowly opened her eyes, secretly thinking, “Little junior brother, the murderer truly is you.”
“The reason you did not directly enter the teleportation array leading to Titan Divine City back then was to prevent others from knowing you had been there.”
“If I’m not mistaken, you arrived at Titan Divine City first and slaughtered the Divine King's Mansion!”
“In the following hundreds of years, you did not act, but when you did, you began to massacre the Jiang Long Divine City, the Gongsun Family, and the Ma Residence…”
“Little junior brother, no matter what your reasons are, you cannot ignore so many lives and create such extensive carnage!”
“Senior sister does not wish to kill you, but I have no choice!”
“When you return, it will be your time to die!”
...
Time moved on, and seasons changed.
Twenty years passed, but Tan Yun still hadn’t returned. Mu Zhen sat cross-legged in the Guest Hall like a stunningly beautiful statue.
At the same time.
Tan Yun, disguised as a middle-aged man, piloted the Divine Vessel, carrying Zi Shan, and finally reached the northern end of the Primordial Chaos Divine Realm, arriving at the barrier leading to the Chaos Divine Realm.
The barrier here was quite fragile. Tan Yun was confident that with the Ancient Divine Armor protecting him, he could pass through the barrier alive and reach the southern end of the Chaos Divine Realm.
“Zi Shan, you enter the Tower of Ascending to the Heavens, and I will take you there,” Tan Yun instructed.
“Yes, Master.” Zi Shan transformed into a purple beam of light and flew into the Tower of Ascending to the Heavens in Tan Yun's ear.
“Ancient Divine Armor!”
With a thought, a silver beam shot out from the Divine Ring, transforming into a suit of silver armor that protected his body and head.
“Zi Shan, it will take me a month to pass through the barrier to reach the Chaos Divine Realm. During this time, you must not leave the Tower of Ascending to the Heavens, or you will be crushed by the barrier’s power. Do you understand?” Tan Yun communicated.
