Against The Sky Supreme

"Yes, but it's not very strong." Yu Yunxi replied through transmission.

"That's manageable then." Tan Yun transmitted, "In five thousand years, even if the crown prince..."

"That's good to hear." Tan Yun continued: "In five thousand years, even if the crown prince is in seclusion within the Mustard Seed Time-Space Magic Treasures, at most, he would be at the seventh layer of the daoist realm. Besides, he is busy with affairs and may not be in seclusion all the time. So, unless something unexpected happens, he should only be at the sixth layer of the daoist realm."

"My Primordial Chaos Ancestral Sacred Soul is comparable to the ninth layer of the daoist realm; I can control him in reverse."

"Really?" Yu Yunxi was excited.

"Of course." Tan Yun replied: "However, we cannot let the crown prince perform soul searching on us in front of your father emperor; otherwise, I wouldn't dare to reverse control him."

"Find a way for us to return to the Seventh Princess's Residence immediately, and then we will act according to circumstances."

"Okay." After Yu Yunxi transmitted, she took a deep breath, raised her head to look at the western continent emperor, and in an instant, her eyes filled with tears as she questioned, "Father emperor, I never expected that you would doubt me!"

"My mother died early; if she were still alive, how could she allow Empress Liu to slander me like this!"

Upon hearing this, the western continent emperor sighed, his expression filled with shame.

"Xiao Zhang, we are leaving!" Yu Yunxi said as she turned to exit.

Tan Yun pretended to say, "Princess, if we leave, others will think we are guilty. For your and my innocence, why not wait here?"

"Wait for what?" Yu Yunxi glared at Tan Yun, "Even if they want to perform soul searching on me, it should be the crown prince who comes directly to my residence. Why should I wait here for him?"

"Xiao Zhang, if you don't come with me, don’t blame me for being impolite. Let's go!"

After saying this, Yu Yunxi soared into the air and transformed into a beam of light, flying out of the Xuanwu Dojo.

"Emperor, please calm down. The seventh princess..." Before Tan Yun could finish, the western continent emperor wearily waved his hand, "Forget it, you go with her. Later, I will have the crown prince go to the Seventh Princess's Residence."

"I take my leave." After Tan Yun knelt and bowed, he soared into the air, flying out of the Xuanwu Dojo to catch up with Yu Yunxi, speeding toward the Seventh Princess's Residence...

At this moment, Tan Yun felt anxious, worried about Fang Zixi.

A moment later, the entrance to the Xuanwu Dojo's swallowing heaven and earth sealed itself. The sealing meant that no one was traversing through the time-space tunnel.

Everyone in the Xuanwu Dojo knew that the remaining seven thousand talented youths who had not yet emerged were already dead.

...

As soon as Tan Yun and Yu Yunxi landed outside the Seventh Princess's Residence, Tan Yun looked at the gatekeeper and urged, "Quickly tell me, did Palace Master Fang come to the residence?"

"She has, she has." The guard replied hurriedly.

"Where is she?" Tan Yun was burning with anxiety.

"She is with Dao Qing Grandmaster." The guard said, and immediately, Tan Yun and Yu Yunxi dashed into the residence, rapidly flickering toward Dao Qing Grandmaster's villa...

In a quiet and elegant guest room of Dao Qing Grandmaster, Fang Zixi, with blood oozing from seven orifices and devoid of color on her face, lay quietly on the bed.

Her breath was faint, and she was on the brink of collapse.

Dao Qing Grandmaster stood before the bed, wearing a worried expression, appearing quite troubled.

Beside Dao Qing Grandmaster, Dao Kun and Chu Xiaotian were filled with anxiety.

Chu Xiaotian silently prayed, "Xi'er, you must not have any issues; otherwise, how can I explain this to your deceased father!"

To be honest, regardless of Chu Xiaotian's character, he had never harbored bad thoughts toward Fang Zixi.

At this moment, Dao Kun, who was continuously releasing his divine consciousness to observe the residence, noticed Tan Yun approaching the villa and discreetly transmitted to Dao Qing Grandmaster, "Master, Yun'er should have brought Pure Yang Divine Herb with her."
