Su Ming was responsible for supervising the construction of the city gate, and Dantai Xuanzhong was well aware of this.
Hearing that it was Su Ming who had come, Dantai Xuanzhong allowed him to enter the hall.
"Elder Nine, is there an issue with the construction of the city gate?" Long Aotian asked as he looked at Su Ming entering the hall.
Dantai Xuanzhong frowned, "What do you mean by that, Elder Su?"
Su Ming cupped his fists towards Dantai Xuanzhong and said, "Sovereign Dantai, just a moment ago, a cultivator at the third layer of the refining soul realm from your sect claimed that there was an issue with the constructed city gate."
"This person spoke in a commanding tone, directly addressing our sovereign by name and asking me to call the sovereign over."
Upon hearing this, all the sovereigns were astonished! Who could be so disruptive as to stop the construction of the city gate?
"How unreasonable!"
Dantai Xuanzhong glared, "I have instructed that the construction of Fang City should not be interfered with by anyone other than Qianyuan. How dare someone stir up trouble! Elder Su, who is this person? This sovereign will not let them off lightly!"
"Sovereign Dantai, I do not know his name," Su Ming said.
"Elder Nine, you don’t know? Shouldn’t you ask a bit?" Long Aotian expressed his dissatisfaction.
"Elder Su has been supervising the construction of the city gate tirelessly, so Sovereign Long should not blame him," Dantai Xuanzhong said, then turned to Su Ming, "Elder Su, do you remember what this person looks like? If so, please materialize his appearance!"
At this moment, Dantai Xuanzhong was quite displeased. He wondered if some old fossil in the sect had sent a trusted aide to cause trouble.
Aside from that, he truly could not think of anyone else who would dare to stop the construction of the city gate!
"It’s this senior!" Su Ming said, "Sovereign Dantai, please look, it’s this young man in a white robe!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Ming waved his right arm, and a burst of spiritual power condensed in the air, forming the image of a remarkably handsome young man in a white robe!
"Tan Yun!" Dantai Xuanzhong suddenly stood up, his eyes revealing extreme disbelief to the point where his wine cup tipped over, spilling spiritual wine without him noticing!
He rubbed his eyes vigorously, and when he confirmed it was indeed Tan Yun, he trembled as he said, "Elder Su, are you sure it’s him?"
Although Su Ming did not understand why Dantai Xuanzhong reacted so dramatically, he replied truthfully, "Absolutely certain!"
"Uh, uh, uh..." Long Aotian was astonished, looking utterly bewildered, "Um, Sovereign Dantai, didn’t you say that Envoy Tan had passed away? How is he still alive?"
"Yes, Sovereign Dantai!"
"..."
The other sovereigns spoke one after another, feeling somewhat overwhelmed!
"This matter is long to explain, everyone, I must take my leave!" After saying this, Dantai Xuanzhong transformed into a blurred shadow and instantly disappeared from the high seat.
"Let’s go, we should also meet Envoy Tan!" Xue Chong stood up and vanished from his seat...
"Hahaha! So Envoy Tan isn’t dead, that’s wonderful!" Long Aotian laughed heartily and hurriedly left the hall.
The other sovereigns followed closely.
In the blink of an eye, only an increasingly dumbfounded Su Ming was left!
"What the heck! That scared me! Turns out this person is so important!" Su Ming muttered to himself, and in a flash, he disappeared from the hall...
Three breaths later.
"Tan Yun... is it really you!"
Outside the city gate, Tan Yun suddenly heard a familiar and excited voice coming from the sky, and in the next moment, Dantai Xuanzhong appeared before him!
"Disciple Tan Yun, I worried the sovereign, please forgive me!" Tan Yun bowed deeply to Dantai Xuanzhong.
"Whoosh!"
Dantai Xuanzhong took a sudden step forward, helping Tan Yun up, gripping his arms tightly, then burst into loud laughter, "Hahaha! It really is you, kid! Good! It’s great you’re back!"
"Quickly tell this sovereign what exactly happened!" Dantai Xuanzhong urged.
