The members of the Huangfu Sacred Sect, upon witnessing Ru Yan Wu Ji swear an oath, couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief.
Tan Yun looked at the furious Ru Yan Wu Ji, trembling all over, and said loudly, “Ru Yan Sovereign, ask yourself, my battle with your son was destined. Even if I kill him, it is within reason.”
“As the leader of a sect, in front of everyone, you threaten and intimidate a junior like me in the fetal soul realm. You have lost all face.”
“And now, I have not killed Ru Yan Chen yet, yet you treat me, a junior, like this in front of hundreds of people. You truly have no shame!”
“Is Ru Yan Chen's life worth more than the lives of my two deceased disciples?”
“It is utterly ridiculous!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Tan Yun forcefully threw Ru Yan Chen down into the void!
Every word Tan Yun spoke was like a slap in the face, harshly hitting Ru Yan Wu Ji's old face.
However, every statement of Tan Yun was reasonable and backed by facts, making it impossible for Ru Yan Wu Ji to explode in front of everyone!
“With this little bastard's strength, he will definitely participate in the eternal land trial in eight months. At that time, this sovereign will crush him into dust!” Ru Yan Wu Ji suppressed his anger, swooping down to catch Ru Yan Chen in his arms.
Then, he ordered the four great elders of the Eternal Immortal Sect—regarding instruments, pills, formations, and talismans—to oversee the situation, before hurriedly leaving with the heavily injured and unconscious Ru Yan Chen!
“Whoosh!”
Stepping on his Flying Sword, after landing on the summit, Zhong Wu Shi Yao rushed in front of Tan Yun with tears streaming down her face, sobbing, “Are you hurt badly?”
“Fool, I'm fine. It’s nothing, just some superficial injuries.” Tan Yun replied while hammering his chest, despite his ragged clothes and wounds all over his body.
In fact, it was true; although Tan Yun looked pitiful, he had no internal injuries.
“Senior Brother Tan, we admire you!” Big Niu shouted at the top of his lungs.
“So do we!” The herb garden disciples and Danmai disciples shouted in unison, their voices echoing into the sky!
“Tan Yun, I am proud to have a disciple like you.” Shen Subing smiled brightly. Once deeply annoyed by Tan Yun, she now found herself increasingly fond of him.
Determined, she decided that after returning to the Huangfu Sacred Sect, she would personally visit the elder of the outer sect, Shen Qingqiu, to sincerely thank him for risking everything to recommend Tan Yun to her.
“Tan Yun, you are not only the pride of our Danmai but also the pride of our Huangfu Sacred Sect.” Tang Xinying said excitedly.
At this moment, Dantai Xuanzhong turned around, looking at Tan Yun with an approving gaze, “Well done! Truly worthy of being a genius of the Huangfu Sacred Sect, and a disciple of mine, Dantai Xuanzhong!”
“Tan Yun, when we return to the Huangfu Sacred Sect, you can choose any treasure that this sovereign has as a reward for you!”
Tan Yun shivered all over, just about to kneel when Dantai Xuanzhong waved his hand to interrupt, “Tan Yun, you have brought honor to the sect; it is indispensable. This sovereign permits you to no longer kneel before me in the future.”
“Thank you, Sovereign!” Tan Yun bowed deeply.
The eight heads of the Huangfu Sacred Sect were momentarily stunned. Since the founding of the sect by the ancestor master, there had never been a precedent of disciples not kneeling before the sovereign!
In the hearts of all the heads and disciples, it was clear that Tan Yun had hit the jackpot this time! He had earned the sovereign's favor!
At this time, Dantai Xuanzhong seemed to think of something and looked displeased at Shen Subing, “What is going on? With such strength to challenge beyond his level, it is undoubtedly a blessing for the Huangfu Sacred Sect. How can such an outstanding disciple be a disposable disciple? How did you become the inner sect Danmai chief!”
