“Senior, there is no need for such formalities. I am friends with the Dragon Sovereign, and it is only right to lend a helping hand when a friend is in trouble,” Tan Yun said, his expression filled with concern.
He looked at the golden-robed man who had lost his limbs and coldly sneered, “As for him, it can wait.”
“Help me.”
Tan Yun said with a worried expression, “Senior Long, you should first heal the Dragon Sovereign.”
“Alright!” Long Bile picked up the severed leg of Long Aotian from the ruins of the palace and, carrying Long Aotian, soared into the air, respectfully saying to Tan Yun, “Please follow this old man, Messenger Tan.”
“Please, Senior Long.” Tan Yun ascended into the sky closely behind.
Tuoba Yingying lifted the golden-robed man and flew away from the mountainside.
Tan Yun and Tuoba Yingying followed Long Bile and flew for fifty thousand miles until they entered an ancient palace.
After Long Bile took Long Aotian upstairs to heal him, Tan Yun set up a soundproof barrier in the main hall on the first floor and activated the primordial divine eye, his enchanting pupils fixating on the golden-robed man.
The golden-robed man immediately appeared dazed.
“What is your name? Who are you? What is your purpose in coming to the Dragon Cloud Sect?” Tan Yun asked in an unquestionable tone.
The golden-robed man, with a blank expression, replied, “My name is Lin Peng, a disciple of the Six Heavens Mystic Palace. I am merely the young palace master’s attendant. The purpose of coming to the Dragon Cloud Sect is to make the Dragon Cloud Sect and other first-class cultivation sects fall under the control of our Six Heavens Mystic Palace. I don’t know anything else.”
Tan Yun raised an eyebrow, “First, have the other first-class cultivation sects fallen under your control?”
“Second, what is the name of the woman in the white dress who came with you? Where did her sword come from?”
“Third, how far is the Six Heavens Mystic Palace from the Heavenly Punishment Mountain Range? How long did it take you to reach the Heavenly Punishment Mountain Range?”
The golden-robed man said in a dazed manner, “We have not had the chance to go to other cultivation sects yet.”
“The woman who came with me is named Nie Rou. Her sword was given to her by the palace master; she is the palace master’s biological daughter.”
“The Six Heavens Mystic Palace is very far from the Heavenly Punishment Mountain Range. It took the young palace master riding the blazing profound eagle six years to reach the Heavenly Punishment Mountain Range.”
Upon hearing this, Tan Yun speculated that the palace master of the Six Heavens Mystic Palace was most likely the reincarnation of the Six Heavens Immortal Emperor!
Tan Yun took a deep breath and pondered, “Tell me, how powerful is your Six Heavens Mystic Palace? Also, did your palace master order you to find and kill a man in the Heavenly Punishment Continent?”
The golden-robed man replied truthfully, “Our Six Heavens Mystic Palace is a Hidden World Sect, with immense power. For example, in the Heavenly Punishment Mountain Range, the divine soul celestial palace led by the three great ancient sects is not weak.”
“Our palace master has been ordering us to find a person who can use sword formations and sword techniques since three thousand years ago.”
Tan Yun felt a tightening in his heart, “What sword formations and sword techniques?”
“The heart of primordial chaos god-slaying sword formation and primordial chaos god-slaying sword technique,” the golden-robed man answered blankly.
Tan Yun’s heart sank, “What do you think is the purpose of your entry into the Heavenly Punishment Mountain Range?”
The golden-robed man remained silent for a long time before speaking, “It should be that over the past three thousand years, there has been no one found in the Heavenly Punishment Continent who can use the heart of primordial chaos god-slaying sword formation and primordial chaos god-slaying sword technique. Therefore, the palace master intends to take action against the first-class cultivation sects in the Heavenly Punishment Mountain Range to control all first-class cultivation sects to find this person.”
