“Understood!”
After Huangfu Guchong received the order, he waved his right arm, and an invisible force immediately bound Jin Xuanzi, rendering him immobile in the snowy sky.
Amidst Jin Xuanzi's heart-wrenching screams, Huangfu Guchong used his sword to slowly slice away at his flesh…
After receiving the order, the Heavenly Slayer Demon Ape flew down from the sky and soon returned, carrying the severely injured and unconscious golden dragon spirit lion on its back, hovering in front of Tan Yun.
At this moment, Song Huixin had also collected the Qiankun Ring and spoils from the elders and clan leader of the Golden Clan.
Subsequently, Tan Yun led everyone and the beasts back to the Secret Realm Gate.
After entering the Huangfu Secret Realm, Tan Yun discovered that Dantai Yu and Dantai Long had already stained their eyes with tears, with clear tear marks on their faces that bore the traces of time.
The high-ranking members and disciples were either teary-eyed or had bloodshot eyes.
In particular, the elder supreme Yuwen Fengjun was crying so hard that his face turned pale and his eyes were swollen.
This was because everyone had witnessed through their spiritual sense the intense battle between Tan Yun, the beasts, the Golden Clan, and the Taotie outside the Huangfu Secret Realm.
They also learned that the great ancestral patriarch of law enforcement, Yuwen Jinglun, had fallen!
Tan Yun took a deep breath, scanned the crowd, and spoke loudly: “Senior Yuwen sacrificed his life for the sect, and now that we have emerged victorious, if he has a spirit in the heavens, he would not want to see you all crying!”
“Everyone, smile! Let Senior Yuwen rest in peace, without regrets!”
Only then did cheers of victory rise from the high-ranking members, elders, and disciples!
After a long time, Tan Yun raised his hand to signal for silence, then looked toward Dantai Yu and Dantai Long, saying, “Grandfather, Uncle, from now on, you will lead the high-ranking members to guard the Secret Realm Gate. After I recover from my injuries, we will reestablish the defensive formation.”
Then, Tan Yun summoned the Supreme Exquisite Holy Tower, which landed in the snow.
He instructed the Heavenly Slayer Demon Ape to carry the golden dragon spirit lion into the nine-story tower to recover from its injuries.
He also let the Heavenly Slayer Demon Ape enter the eight-story tower to recover.
Mo'er was placed in the seven-story tower to recuperate.
The bloodthirsty centipede king, heavenly net dragon bear king, soul-capturing purple eagle king, and blood rainbow cold lion king were respectively sent into the three, four, five, and six stories to heal their injuries.
After arranging everything, Tan Yun cast a reassuring smile at Mu Mengyi and the others who were worried about his injuries, then soared into the ten-story tower.
As night fell, Tan Yun, dressed in a white robe, emerged safely from the ten-story tower, appearing in the snowy ground.
After the high-ranking members and disciples paid their respects to Tan Yun, he seemed to recall something and looked solemnly at the high-ranking members of the Holy Gate, saying without a doubt, “Send the order down, all Ten Veins of the Huangfu Sacred Sect, aside from the Beast Clan lineage, shall abolish their previous cultivation methods of various attributes!”
At this declaration, the crowd was stunned and confused!
What Tan Yun said next left the high-ranking members even more bewildered!
Tan Yun added, “From the outer sect stewards and elders to the Holy Gate's chief, including the law enforcement ancestral patriarch, assassination organization, and Heavenly Punishment Organization members, all must abandon their current cultivation methods!”
Upon hearing this, Dantai Yu said in confusion, “Yun'er, the cultivation methods of each vein were passed down by the ancestor master while he was alive; they are the foundation of our sect. How can we discard them? Do you mean we should also abandon grandfather's methods?”
