“Sovereign, kill the spies, kill them!” A female disciple shouted from the crowd.
Immediately, the disciples joined in, their voices shaking the heavens, “Kill the spies!”
“Kill them!”
“……”
Tan Yun raised his hand to signal the disciples to quiet down.
Tan Yun raised his hand to signal the disciples to be quiet, then scanned the leading spies from the twelve factions and said, "One by one, tell me which faction is backing you?"
The man at the forefront of the first team, with a dazed expression, replied, "We are from the Eternal Immortal Sect."
The woman at the forefront of the second team spoke truthfully, "We are from the Divine Soul Celestial Palace."
The woman at the forefront of the third team, looking wooden, said, "We are members of the Ancient Golden Clan."
The man leading the fourth team stated, "We were sent here by the royal family of the Tuoba Sacred Dynasty."
Following that, the spies leading teams five through twelve sequentially declared:
"We are from the royal family of the Huangfu Sacred Dynasty…"
"We are from the royal family of the Nangong Sacred Dynasty…"
"We are from the Ancient Murong Clan…"
"We are from the royal family of the Tang Zun Sacred Dynasty…"
"We are from the Ancient Zhongli Clan…"
"We are from the Hidden World Family Qili Clan…"
"We are from the Hidden World Family Si Hong Family…"
"We are from the Hidden World Family Zhong Wu Family…"
After hearing this, before Tan Yun could speak, Dantai Yu was already shaking with anger and laughed in rage, "It's one thing for the two ancient sects of the Heavenly Punishment Mountain Range to meddle in my Huangfu Sacred Sect!"
"I never expected that three of the Ancient Six Clans would come!"
"Not one of the four great sacred dynasties is absent!"
"Even the three so-called reclusive families sent people to infiltrate my Huangfu Sacred Sect!"
At this moment, not only was Dantai Yu furious, but the other high-ranking members were equally enraged.
You must understand, these powerful factions account for nearly half of the forces in the Heavenly Punishment Continent!
"Yun'er, kill them all!" Dantai Yu roared angrily, despite having sustained serious injuries.
"Grandfather, calm down." Tan Yun quickly supported Dantai Yu and said, "Grandfather, I have a few questions to ask you before we execute them."
"Go ahead." Dantai Yu replied.
Tan Yun did not immediately ask. He thought to himself, "I have now retrieved the six Primordial Chaos Divine Swords: Jin Ni, Mu Xin, Clear Shadow, Huo Wu, Qian Chen, and Annihilation."
"There are still five single-attribute Divine Swords and one Primordial Chaos God-Slaying Sword that I haven't recovered."
"Two of the single-attribute Divine Swords should be in the Tang Zun Sacred Dynasty, and the Primordial Chaos God-Slaying Sword should be in the Divine Soul Celestial Palace."
"So where could the other three be?"
"When I undertook the Eternal Land Trial and entered the Abyss of the Buried Gods to find the Primal Chaos God Sovereign, he told me there are eleven elders who collectively stole the Divine Swords."
"Besides the ancestor masters of the three ancient sects of the Heavenly Punishment Mountain Range, there are also Tuoba Chenyuan, Nangong Chongxu, Mu Gu Feng, Huangfu Lingyun, Tang Zhanfeng, Qili Ruxu, Si Hong Ru Kong, Zhong Wu Chang Cun!"
"Dreamtalk mentioned that Mu Gu Feng is an ancestor of the Mu family, while Tang Zhanfeng should be from the Tang Clan."
"Tang Zhanfeng and Mu Gu Feng each obtained a Primordial Chaos Divine Sword back then. Tang Zhanfeng's descendant, Tang Yongsheng, led a group to eradicate the royal family of the Mu Wind Sacred Dynasty and took away the Divine Sword left for the descendants by Mu Gu Feng."
"Thus, the remaining three Primordial Chaos Divine Swords must have been secured by Tuoba Chenyuan, Nangong Chongxu, Si Hong Ru Kong, Qili Ruxu, Huangfu Lingyun, and Zhong Wu Chang Cun, three of whom are still alive…"
Tan Yun thought of this and looked at Dantai Yu, asking if he knew the backgrounds of these six people.
