Dong Yong stared at the young man in front of him, confirming that it was indeed Tan Yun.
More than a year ago, when Tan Yun broke into the airspace of Tuoba Imperial City and killed the general of martial warfare, holy lord Tuoba was furious. Countless portraits of Tan Yun were posted throughout the Tuoba Sacred Dynasty, stating that whoever discovered him must report immediately, with a hefty reward!
Thus, Dong Yong recognized Tan Yun at a glance. Thinking of Tan Yun's previous rampage in Nangong Imperial City with several beasts, Dong Yong was completely panicked.
"Are you dumb?" Tan Yun raised an eyebrow and asked, "Do you still need the spirit vessel?"
"N-No... I don't need it." Dong Yong replied, sweating profusely and trembling in fear.
Tan Yun said indifferently, "My Huangfu Sacred Sect and Tuoba Sacred Dynasty are mortal enemies. Even if I kill you now, it would be normal. However, since you helped me leave Tuoba Sacred Dynasty, I’ll spare your life this time. Now leave!"
"Yes, yes, yes." Dong Yong, who had saved his life, repeatedly agreed and then turned, shooting into the sky, disappearing into the night's veil…
Afterward, Tan Yun maneuvered the spirit vessel towards the Heavenly Punishment Mountain Range. During the flight, he instructed Nangong Yuqin to step out from the sacred tower. The two stood on the spirit vessel like golden boy and jade girl, admiring the beautiful scenery below.
In the morning, as the sun rose in the east, Tan Yun piloted the spirit vessel into the Heavenly Punishment Mountain Range, and a feeling of familiarity surged from within.
At this moment, Shi Potian was maneuvering a high-quality sub-immortal artifact spirit vessel, appearing six hundred thousand miles behind Tan Yun.
“Tan Yun, and you, Jade Whisper, this patriarch will not let you off!”
“Yuqin, you are the saintess of the divine soul celestial palace, yet you disregard the palace’s reputation, the face of the eternal immortal sect, and the Nangong Sacred Dynasty by eloping with Tan Yun! Today, I declare to demote you from your saintess position and expel you from the divine soul celestial palace!”
“Tan Yun, you scoundrel! You killed my sovereign's child, I will definitely have you skinned alive!”
Suddenly, the furious voices of Shi Potian, Zhuge Yu, and Ru Yan Wu Ji echoed among the mountains, lingering for a long time.
Nangong Yuqin intended to retort, but Tan Yun softly said, “Don’t bother with those old dogs; I’ll talk to them.”
“Alright.” Nangong Yuqin nodded in agreement.
Tan Yun gently wrapped his arm around her waist and turned to face Shi Potian's direction. His hair flew in the wind, and his spiritual sense enveloped Shi Potian's spirit vessel, conveying an uncontrollable voice of anger to everyone’s ears:
“Let’s talk about you, Shi Potian. You’ve taught wrongly, allowing Shi Wanruo, that venomous woman, to twist right and wrong, causing the deaths of Yuqin’s mother, grandmother, uncle, and second uncle. She deserves to die, and it’s just as it should be!”
“As for your wife, Yin Yuhuang, she also deserved to die!”
“Zhuge Yu, let me talk about you again. Shi Wanruo is your cousin; do you dare say she has done no wrong? You knew Yuqin and I had feelings for each other, yet you still tried to match Yuqin with Ru Yan Chen. What kind of person are you? Bah!”
As Shi Potian and Zhuge Yu seethed with anger, Tan Yun’s words left Ru Yan Wu Ji and Ru Yan Gao Xian pale with fury!
“Ru Yan Wu Ji, my grievances with your eternal immortal sect and divine soul celestial palace are not recent. I’ve spared Ru Yan Chen’s life twice before during the trials in the eternal land and the battlefield of the gods. So this time, taking his life is only right.”
“However, today I want to mention something that you might be very interested in. Use your spiritual senses to see clearly what… this is!”
What further infuriated the two was that through their spiritual sense, they discovered that a completely red flying sword flew out from the center of Tan Yun's brow.
