Facing the insults, Tan Yun shrugged and looked up at the red-faced Ru Yan Wu Ji, chuckling, "Hey, Sovereign Ru Yan, look at what you’re saying! I’m standing right here under your eyes, how could I possibly be dead?”
“Sovereign Ru Yan, besides, I’ve killed three or four thousand disciples of your Eternal Immortal Sect during my two trials in the eternal land. How could I bear to die?”
Before her voice faded, Ru Yan Wu Ji flew into the air!
If she hadn’t flown away, she was truly afraid she would lose control and attack Tan Yun. But she knew she was no match for Dantai Xuanzhong, so she had no choice but to leave!
“Hahaha, let’s see if I can’t drive you crazy, old hag!” Even after Ru Yan Wu Ji had flown far away, Tan Yun’s wild mocking voice still echoed in her ears.
…
Divine Soul Celestial Palace, VIP Palace.
“I’m so furious… I’m so furious!” Ru Yan Wu Ji stepped into the palace with a dark expression.
At that moment, the nine elders of the Eternal Immortal Sect and dozens of elders from the Divine Soul Celestial Palace looked at Ru Yan Wu Ji in confusion.
“Sovereign Ru Yan, what happened to you?” Zhuge Yu, seated at the head of the table, frowned and stood up, asking, “Who made you so angry?”
At this moment, everyone’s gaze was fixed on Ru Yan Wu Ji, waiting for her answer.
“Palace Master Zhuge, do you still remember the scene from over six years ago during the eternal land trial when all the trial disciples from both our sects tragically died at the summit of the Time-Space Immortal Mountain?” Ru Yan Wu Ji gritted her teeth.
“I remember, of course!” Zhuge Yu’s eyes showed signs of grief and anger, “After the trial ended, you and I specifically passed through the time-space tunnel to reach the summit of the Time-Space Immortal Mountain, only to find that more than five thousand disciples from our respective sects had perished!”
Ru Yan Wu Ji said angrily, “Palace Master Zhuge, those disciples were all killed by Tan Yun!”
“What? Tan Yun?” Zhuge Yu frowned, “Sovereign Ru Yan, how could it be Tan Yun? He died nine years ago during that eternal land trial!”
“Palace Master Zhuge, you don’t know!” Ru Yan Wu Ji exploded with rage, “That little bastard Tan Yun didn’t die; he has already achieved great perfection in the refining soul realm! He’s currently with Dantai Xuanzhong, here in your palace!”
“I just witnessed that little bastard say it with his own mouth that he was the one who killed our more than five thousand disciples on the Time-Space Immortal Mountain!”
Zhuge Yu’s face turned red with anger, and with a “bang!” she smashed the wine cup in her hand onto the ground, trembling, “Tomorrow, when Tan Yun participates in the trial qualification competition, he must die!”
“He must die!”
At this moment, Zhuge Yu, Ru Yan Wu Ji, the elders of the Divine Soul Celestial Palace, and the elders of the Eternal Immortal Sect were too furious to indulge in their drinks.
“Elder Two, go find the young master and the disciples participating in the qualification battle for this sovereign!” Ru Yan Wu Ji shouted at an elder of the Eternal Immortal Sect.
“Understood, I will go at once!” Elder Two immediately rushed out of the main hall.
Zhuge Yu narrowed her eyes and glanced at an elder, saying, “Go find the Saintess, Li Suyue, and He Chaori!”
“Understood!”
…
The night grew deep.
In the Divine Soul Celestial Palace, Profound Ice Cold Mountain.
Inside a palace as white as snow, Nangong Yuqin looked at the hurried old woman and asked, “Elder Three, why are you here?”
“Saintess, the palace master wants you to go to the VIP Palace immediately,” Elder Three said respectfully, “I still need to inform Li Suyue and He Chaori, so I will take my leave now.”
“Wait.” Nangong Yuqin stopped Elder Three, raising her delicate brow, “Elder Three, you look so rushed. What happened? Why would the master summon me at this hour?”
