At this moment, on the Jade Tower, several elders from the Holy Spirit Lineage and the Five Soul Lineage had their previous smiles, which they wore when thinking about Tan Yun's death, replaced by sadness!
Because among the thirty-nine people killed by Tan Yun, there were their proud disciples!
Hatred filled their hearts!
They wished they could split Tan Yun in half with a single strike...
"This kid has entered the sect for just a few years and already has two Dao partners. How can this continue?" Dantai Xuanzhong furrowed his brows, thinking that in the future, he absolutely couldn't let his precious daughter become Tan Yun's side partner.
That was out of the question!
He decided that, regardless of how many wives Tan Yun might have in the future, his daughter must be the main wife!
With this thought, Dantai Xuanzhong felt a bit more at ease.
He glanced at Tan Yun, who was sitting cross-legged among the Danmai disciples, secretly thinking, "That kid was just pretending earlier, and now this sovereign doesn't even have to look to know he's still faking it."
Then, he looked at Shen Subing, who had returned to her seat, and instructed, "Subing, let's continue."
"Yes, Sovereign." After Shen Subing received the order, she looked down at Mu Mengyi, worriedly asking, "Mengyi, are you sure you want to defend the arena? If you do this, won't Tan Yun's enemies let you off?"
Shen Subing spoke very straightforwardly; concerning Mu Mengyi's safety, she voiced what everyone was secretly thinking.
Upon hearing this, Mu Mengyi's expression was terrifyingly calm, "Chief, I am sure!"
The phrase "I am sure" contained too many thoughts for Mu Mengyi!
Those who harmed my husband must be killed!
For the first time, Mu Mengyi felt the strong urge to kill!
The killing intent lurked in her heart; for Tan Yun, she would not hesitate to cause any amount of slaughter. This was Mu Mengyi!
"Mengyi, remember, the importance of defending the arena is nothing compared to your life. If you find yourself at a disadvantage, escape from the Crouching Dragon Platform in time," Shen Subing repeatedly reminded her.
"I will obey." After Mu Mengyi replied, she added, "Chief, wait a moment; before I begin defending the arena, I need to handle something first."
"Alright," Shen Subing agreed, "but don't delay for too long."
"Understood." With a slight nod, Mu Mengyi waved her right arm, and two slender beams of black and gray light shot out from the Qiankun Ring, directly piercing into the summit!
"Buzz—"
As the sword body hummed softly, it transformed into a black Flying Sword and a dark gray Flying Sword, which inserted themselves in front of the Beast Spirit Lineage disciples.
"Wu Hong, this is the top-tier death attribute and beast attribute treasure artifact Flying Sword you gave me when I exited seclusion a month and a half ago. I'm returning it to you now!"
After Mu Mengyi spoke, she no longer paid attention to the extremely grim-faced beast spirit practitioner.
She looked down at the more than sixty thousand Danmai disciples below and gently said, "Is there any senior brother or sister who has a death or beast attribute Flying Sword? If so, may I borrow it?"
As no one responded, a beautiful female disciple awkwardly said, "Senior Sister Mu, I have a death attribute Flying Sword, but it's only a Medium-Grade Spirit Artifact."
This girl felt embarrassed to say it; after all, anyone capable of defending the arena would typically use at least a Low-Grade Magic Weapon for their Flying Sword.
Moreover, she knew that if both sides were evenly matched, using her Medium-Grade Spirit Artifact against someone with a Low-Grade Magic Weapon would undoubtedly result in her Medium-Grade Spirit Artifact being shattered in a moment or worse, destroyed in an instant!
"Medium-Grade Spirit Artifact..." Mu Mengyi frowned. Suddenly, it seemed Tan Yun remembered something and looked towards Daniu and the others, "Why are you still dawdling? I heard that a certain senior gave you many Flying Swords back then; is there none among them that Mengyi needs?"
