Dantai Yu cried hoarsely, his eyes swollen and his heart shattered!
He couldn't understand why Tan Yun was so ruthless!
In his heart, his son was better than Tan Yun, even more than his granddaughter. Long ago, he had wanted to find a way to pass the position of sovereign to Tan Yun!
At this moment, Dantai Yu did not suspect that someone had impersonated Tan Yun to kill his son!
Because Tian Lao was his son's most loyal subordinate, and Tian Lao had witnessed with his own eyes Tan Yun enter the Huangfu Holy Temple to discuss matters with his son, after which his son died. Furthermore, before his son died, he had written blood characters to certify Tan Yun's involvement.
All of this left a mark of a murderer on Tan Yun, a solid evidence indeed!
"My son! Rest assured, I will kill Tan Yun and avenge you!"
After speaking, Dantai Yu ordered Tian Lao to take Dantai Xuanzhong's corpse into the Huangfu Holy Temple.
"Everyone!" Dantai Yu roared, "According to sect rules, in order to abolish the position of sovereign, all ancestors from each lineage must agree unanimously!"
"Today, this old man proposes to abolish Tan Yun’s position as sovereign. Do you all agree?"
Apart from the Formation Lineage, over 150 ancestors from the other eight lineages responded in unison, "We agree!"
Only Feng Yun, the great ancestral patriarch of the Formation Lineage, frowned tightly. He could not fathom Tan Yun's most reasonable motive for murder!
In his view, Tan Yun had already obtained the Huangfu Sacred Sect, and even if there were spies, he wouldn't be so eager to kill Dantai Xuanzhong, right?
Moreover, according to Tuoba Qingtian, after Dantai Xuanzhong discovered that Tan Yun was a spy, why did he specifically send Tuoba Qingtian to inform the seven great ancestors of the other seven lineages?
The reason for the specificity was that Feng Yun was aware Tuoba Qingtian might also be a spy!
In the past, Feng Yun would have wished for Tan Yun's death, but now it was different. Tan Yun had agreed to marry Feng Qingcheng, which made him feel like one of their own!
At the same time, he understood that this was not the time to defend Tan Yun. He had no doubt that if he spoke even a word in Tan Yun's favor, the nearly mad Dantai Yu would make him die a horrible death!
"Feng Yun, what do you think?" Dantai Yu glared at Feng Yun and shouted, "What is the opinion of your Formation Lineage's higher-ups?"
Feng Yun looked like a frightened rabbit, respectfully saying, "Tan Yun's crimes are unforgivable; he must die! Naturally, I agree to abolish Tan Yun's position as sovereign!"
"Good!" Dantai Yu announced, "From this moment on, I declare the abolition of Tan Yun's position as sovereign! All lineages, go all out to hunt down Tan Yun!"
Dantai Yu looked at Tian Lao and ordered, "You will immediately take people to the Meritorious Sacred Realm and capture or kill one of Tan Yun's fiancées and those close to him!"
"Understood!" Tian Lao responded.
As soon as he finished, Feng Yun looked at Dantai Yu and suggested, "I believe killing Tan Yun and his fiancée might be too easy for him!"
"In my opinion, why not capture Tan Yun alive, then kill his two fiancées before him, and finally kill Tan Yun!"
To the crowd, it seemed Feng Yun was trying to distance himself from Tan Yun by employing such a vicious method!
What they did not know was that Feng Yun was trying to protect Tan Yun's fiancée. At the same time, he was determined that once Tan Yun was captured, he would bring Feng clan experts to rescue Tan Yun and take him and his fiancée away from the Heavenly Punishment Mountain Range.
In his heart, having Tan Yun—who was a holy artifact master, saint formation master, holy talisman master, and sacred alchemist—meant securing the future.
Of course, he thought that allowing Tan Yun to become part of the Feng clan was also a delightful matter.
After finishing, Feng Yun noticed Dantai Yu squinting at him with suspicion, and he grinned, "Tan Yun is cunning; if he hides, we may not find him!"
