âWhoosh!â Mu Mengyi leaped onto the lion's back, standing on her tiptoes to kiss Tan Yun's forehead. She held his resolute face in her hands, tears welling in her eyes as she said, âPromise me, you and Sister Yuqin must come back alive with Shiyao and Xian'er!â
âHmm!â Tan Yun nodded heavily, âI promise I will come back alive. You donât have to worry about me. I have already advanced to the eighth layer of the divine domain realm, and Mo'er and Big Guy have also reached the eighth-grade tribulation stage.â
âMoreover, within the sixth, fifth, fourth, and third layers of my Supreme Exquisite Holy Tower, there are the bloodthirsty centipede king, heavenly net dragon bear king, soul-capturing purple eagle king, and blood rainbow cold lion king to assist me, so you donât need to worry about me.â
âI will return immediately after rescuing Yuqin. Itâs not like Iâm going to war with the Nangong Sacred Dynasty!â
Despite Tan Yun speaking so lightly, he knew that rescuing Yuqin would be extraordinarily difficult!
Because even a fool would know how grand the wedding between the eldest princess of the Nangong Sacred Dynasty and the young master of the eternal immortal sect would be!
At that time, the major cultivation families and powerhouses of the entire Nangong Sacred Dynasty, along with the eternal immortal sect and divine soul celestial palace, would all send strong individuals to congratulate them.
Successfully kidnapping the bride right under everyone's noses at the wedding would undoubtedly be akin to pulling teeth from a tiger!
Tan Yun was clear about this, and so were Mu Mengyi and the others. They didnât speak up; they simply didnât want to voice their concerns, instead looking at Tan Yun with expressions that conveyed, âI believe in you.â
âSovereign, take me with you,â Nangong Ruxue said.
âYou and Little White shouldnât follow.â Tan Yun replied.
âSovereign, the Nangong Sacred Dynasty is my home, IâŚâ Before Nangong Ruxue could finish, Tan Yun interrupted, âRuxue, your sister is getting married, and you still donât know about it. That in itself is very unusual!â
âAlthough I donât know where the problem lies, my intuition tells me there is something strange going on.â
âSo you arenât allowed to go; thatâs an order!â
âSubing, take Ruxue and Mengyi back to the sect. I need to close the Secret Realm Gate!â
âFocus on your cultivation. Only when you are strong enough will you be able to assist me!â
Upon hearing this, Shen Subing nodded, and a sweet yet worried voice resonated in Tan Yunâs mind, âIâll wait for you to come back!â
Then, Shen Subing led the reluctant Nangong Ruxue and Mu Mengyi into the Secret Realm Gate.
âIâm not going to your sect; I want to find my master,â Little White said.
âWhat do you think youâre doing? Do you want everyone to know youâre the one who informed me? At that time, that venomous woman Zhuge Yu will definitely kill you!â After saying this, Tan Yun urged, âHurry up and go in; I donât have time to waste with you!â
âOh, okay.â Little White shrank her neck and flapped her wings, flying into the Secret Realm Gate.
âMaster, this is the map jade tablet of the Nangong Sacred Dynasty; please keep it safe.â Song Huixin took a jade tablet from the Qiankun Ring and then flew into the Secret Realm Gate.
As the Secret Realm Gate closed, Dantai Xian'erâs voice came from inside, âTan Yun, weâll wait for you to come back!â
âDonât worry, I will return!â After Tan Yun said this, his spiritual sense merged into the jade tablet, allowing the golden dragon spirit lion to control the beast sense within.
After a moment, Tan Yun shouted, âBig Guy, did you remember the coordinates of the Imperial City of the Nangong Sacred Dynasty?â
âRemembered!â
âGood, go to the Nangong Sacred Dynasty as quickly as possible; you must arrive before Yuqinâs wedding!â Tan Yun ordered indignantly.
Then, Tan Yun summoned the Supreme Exquisite Holy Tower from his chest, transforming it into a ten-zhang (ten-meter) large tower on the back of the golden dragon spirit lion.
