"Mm." Nangong Ruxue nodded and said, "Sister, Iām leaving now. Take care of yourself."
"You too." Nangong Yuqin embraced Nangong Ruxue.
After a long while, the two sisters reluctantly parted, and Nangong Ruxue leaped onto the Spirit Vessel.
Tan Yun understood that there was something Nangong Yuqin wanted to tell him through Nangong Ruxue.
At that moment, Nangong Yuqin's expression turned cold as she looked at Tan Yun and the others, decisively stating to Elder Three, "Elder Three, send away those who are not welcomed in our palace!"
"Yes, Saintess!" Elder Three respectfully replied, maneuvering the Spirit Vessel into the air and coldly looking down at Dantai Xuanzhong, "Let's go!"
Dantai Xuanzhong furrowed his brows and, carrying Tan Yun and everyone from the Huangfu Sacred Sect, followed Elder Three away...
Two hours later, Dantai Xuanzhong piloted the Spirit Vessel out of the Divine Soul Secret Realm, ascending into the azure sky, hastening toward the central region of the Heavenly Punishment Mountain Range.
"Senior Brother Tan, come with me." After leaving a sentence, Nangong Ruxue entered the training room.
Tan Yun smiled at Mu Mengyi and the others, then followed Nangong Ruxue into the training room.
"This is what my sister asked me to give you." Nangong Ruxue handed a folded note to Tan Yun, looking as if she wanted to say something but held back.
In the end, she asked nothing and exited the training room.
Upon opening the note, Tan Yun saw a line written on it: "Wait for me at Huangfu Sacred Sect; I will come to find you as soon as possible."
As Tan Yun tenderly folded the note, Shen Subing's voice came from outside the door, "Tan Yun, the Sovereign is looking for you."
"I will go right away." Tan Yun put away the note and stepped out of the training room with Shen Subing and Shen Suzhen, entering Dantai Xuanzhong's training room.
After saluting Dantai Xuanzhong, he straightforwardly asked, "Tan Yun, your sister is not one of our Huangfu Sacred Sect disciples. Who is she, really?"
Tan Yun bowed and replied, "Reporting to the Sovereign, she is Tuoba Meng, a disciple of the Eternal Immortal Sect. She is a distant cousin of mine, and I only recognized her during the trials at the Battlefield of the Gods."
"Oh, I see." Dantai Xuanzhong nodded, "Do you plan to let her remain in our sect from now on?"
"Yes, Sovereign." Tan Yun respectfully replied, "Yingying killed over a thousand disciples from the Divine Soul Celestial Palace during the trials alone. Her talent is extraordinary; I believe she will not disappoint you in the future."
"Since you have said so, then I, as the Sovereign, agree." Dantai Xuanzhong smiled and added, "Alright, you may leave for now."
Tan Yun did not leave but instead, with a serious expression, said, "Sovereign, I have something important to report."
"Speak." Dantai Xuanzhong said.
"Yes, Sovereign." Tan Yun respectfully responded, "During this trial at the Battlefield of the Gods, the Divine Soul Celestial Palace and the Eternal Immortal Sect colluded, behaving despicably..."
Then, Tan Yun recounted the situation regarding the Profound Thunder Blood Spider, Mystic Moon Thunder Cat, and Golden Flame Qilin to Dantai Xuanzhong.
Dantai Xuanzhong was first filled with fury, but upon learning that Tan Yun also had a spirit beast, he spared everyone's lives.
"Sovereign, there are some things I don't know if I should say." Tan Yun pondered.
"Say whatever you want." Dantai Xuanzhong suppressed his anger and said in a deep voice.
Tan Yun spoke honestly: "Sovereign, based on this trial at the Battlefield of the Gods, we can see that from now on, there is no need for our Huangfu Sacred Sect to participate in trials at the eternal land or the Battlefield of the Gods anymore."
"Indeed." Dantai Xuanzhong said with concern, "There is indeed no need! The Divine Soul Celestial Palace and the Eternal Immortal Sect have openly violated trial rules; it is evident that our sect's final battle with them is not far off..."

At the same time.
