“Hmm, I believe you.” Mu Mengyi wrapped her arm around Tan Yun’s, looking exceptionally charming.
“Tan Yun, let’s go find Shiyao together!”
“Mu Mengyi, let’s go find Shiyao!”
The two spoke in unison, their thoughts seemingly connected.
“Alright!” Tan Yun appeared to have thought of something.
“Okay!” Tan Yun seemed to have thought of something and said, “Mu Mengyi, I have something to ask you later. Let's walk and talk.”
With that, Tan Yun maneuvered the Spirit Vessel, carrying Mu Mengyi, soaring into the sky and flying towards the outskirts of the Danmai Secret Realm...
On the Spirit Vessel, Tan Yun leaned against the wall of the vessel, holding the delicate Mu Mengyi in his arms, and asked, “Mu Mengyi, do you know Mu Gu Feng?”
As soon as he finished speaking, Tan Yun clearly felt Mu Mengyi's body shudder slightly.
Mu Mengyi looked at Tan Yun in disbelief and said, “He is my ancestor from the Mu family, who passed away seventy thousand years ago. How do you know about him?”
Tan Yun immediately perked up, “Mu Mengyi, you don't know, but in the Abyss of the Buried Gods, I encountered former subordinates and found four Primordial Chaos Divine Swords. With Huo Wu, that's five now.”
“However, I learned from the Undying that eighty thousand years ago, it wasn't just the ancestor master of the Eternal Immortal Sect who went to the Abyss of the Buried Gods. There were ten others with him, one of whom was your Mu family's ancestor!”
“At that time, the ancestor master of the Eternal Immortal Sect and your Mu family's ancestor, along with eleven others, took away my six Primordial Chaos Divine Swords and a Primordial Chaos God-Slaying Sword.”
“I can only confirm that the Primordial Chaos God-Slaying Sword is in the Divine Soul Celestial Palace, but I am not sure who among the other ten has the remaining six Primordial Chaos Divine Swords.”
“However, since my sect's ancestor once challenged and defeated the ancestor masters of the Eternal Immortal Sect and the Divine Soul Celestial Palace, and since those two were able to obtain one sword each, I believe my sect's ancestor also obtained one, which is now in our sect.”
“As for who possesses the other five swords, I have no clue.”
Upon hearing this, Mu Mengyi bit her red lips, her beautiful eyes shimmering with tears.
“Tan Yun, the Tang Zun Sacred Dynasty should have two of your divine swords!”
Seeing Mu Mengyi's sorrowful appearance, Tan Yun held her close and asked, “What happened?”
“Hmm, let me tell you slowly,” Mu Mengyi said with a pear blossom-like expression, her thoughts drifting back to more than a decade ago, choking up as she said:
“My father once said that my ancestor Mu Gu Feng, eighty thousand years ago, obtained a divine artifact in the Heavenly Punishment Mountain Range with a powerful being surnamed Tang.”
“My father also mentioned that Tang Yongsheng might be a descendant of that powerful Tang being. To obtain my Mu family's divine artifact, he led people to invade our Imperial City that night, killing my father and leaving my mother’s fate unknown!”
“In the end, Tang Yongsheng changed the Mu Wind Sacred Dynasty into the Tang Zun Sacred Dynasty! So I believe that the divine artifact my father spoke of must be the Primordial Chaos Divine Sword obtained from the Eternal Land!”
Upon hearing this, Tan Yun tightly embraced Mu Mengyi, speaking firmly, “Silly girl, don't cry. One day, I will accompany you to take revenge, destroy the Tang Zun Sacred Dynasty, and rescue your mother!”
“Hmm.” Mu Mengyi nestled in Tan Yun's embrace, her expression filled with panic as she asked, “Tan Yun, do you think my mother is still alive?”
“Yes, definitely!” Tan Yun comforted her.
“Tan Yun, you once said that after we rescue my mother, we would get married. Is that true?” Mu Mengyi's tears flowed down.
“Of course it's true!” Tan Yun said with longing in his eyes, “By then, I will make your mother personally agree to our marriage!”
