After making up his mind, Tan Yun narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze cold and piercing. "This time, the disciples of the Elysium Sect heading to the Ancient Fire Prison should wait for me!"
"The Elysium Sect killed my subordinates, and they joined forces with the Eastern Continent Ancestral Dynasty, Southern Ancestral Dynasty, and Northern Ancestral Dynasty to annihilate my Immortal Ancient Divine Race. This time, as long as I have the ability, I will not let the disciples of the Elysium Sect leave the Ancient Fire Prison alive..."
Tan Yun turned around to look in the direction of the voice and saw a blood-soaked female disciple from the Inner Sect flying towards him in panic from the western horizon.
After three breaths, the female disciple landed in front of Tan Yun, her back covered in shocking claw marks.
"What happened, Junior Sister?" Tan Yun asked with a frown.
The pale-faced female disciple, still in shock, said, "Tan Holy Son, my name is Xia'er."
"Yesterday, I went to the Western Mystic Valley to gather herbs with three male Inner Sect brothers, but unexpectedly, we encountered the two-headed blood flood dragon. The three brothers held off the dragon to allow me to escape and seek help!"
"Now, I have no idea if my three brothers are alive or dead... Wuwu..." As Xia'er spoke, she began to cry. "Tan Ancestor Mountain is closest to the Western Mystic Valley, so I came to you for help."
"Thud!"
Xia'er knelt before Tan Yun, bowing her head as she said, "Tan Holy Son, please, save my brothers... Wuwu..."
"Junior Sister, get up. I will help," Tan Yun said.
"Thank you, Senior Brother!" The moment Xia'er stood up, a strange red light flashed in Tan Yun's eyes, causing Xia'er to become dazed.
"Are you speaking the truth, or is someone trying to kill me and luring me to the Western Mystic Valley?" Tan Yun asked without doubt, "Answer me."
One should never have malicious thoughts but always remain vigilant against others; Tan Yun needed to clarify this.
"I'm telling the truth," Xia'er replied.
"It seems I was overthinking," Tan Yun thought to himself before quickly activating his primordial divine eye and urging, "I'll carry you; lead the way."
"Okay." With a grateful look, Xia'er said, "Fly west all the way..."
Before Xia'er could finish her sentence, she felt dizzy. When she regained her senses, she found Tan Yun holding her hand, rapidly piercing through the blue sky towards the Western Void...
As soon as Tan Yun left Tan Ancestor Mountain, dozens of figures shot up into the sky from the foot of Tan Ancestor Mountain, disappearing into thin air, clearly using the invisibility technique!
Three hours later, the cold wind howled, and the setting sun bled crimson.
In the northwestern part of the Four Arts Star Domain, amidst towering mountains, a massive and deep valley stood impressively.
This valley was the Western Mystic Valley.
At this moment, deep within the Western Mystic Valley, three male disciples, covered in wounds, were battling a two-headed blood flood dragon that was ninety thousand zhang long, and the situation seemed precarious.
Unbeknownst to the three male disciples, there was a cave dwelling on a stone wall rising to a million zhang within the depths of the valley, where thirty disciples at the great perfection of the ancestral emperor realm were watching.
If Tan Yun were here, he would instantly recognize that the leading female disciple was Mi Qin, the top-ranked elite disciple in the Four Arts Star Domain!
Behind Mi Qin stood twenty male disciples and nine female disciples.
All twenty-nine were Mi Qin's trusted aides.
"Sister Mi, do you think Tan Yun will come?" a female disciple asked.
Mi Qin smiled slightly, her tone revealing a sense of control over the situation. "If the Inner Sect disciple named Xia'er went back to seek help, she should be the first to find Tan Yun."
"Tan Yun can't just stand by and watch someone die, right?"
"Unless Tan Yun isn't at Tan Ancestor Mountain, otherwise, he will definitely come!"
The female disciple looked at Mi Qin with admiration and said, "Sister Mi, you're really amazing."
