Boom!
At this moment, the Guanghan Palace had completely returned to calmness, countless Holy Qi dissipating. No one could tell that more than ten Saint Masters had just been born here. Due to the destruction of the Heavenly Tribulation, it still felt quite desolate.
In the distance, a terrifying aura soared over, accompanied by a shadow that appeared ethereal. The two figures flew swiftly and soon arrived in the sky above Guanghan Palace, standing at a distance.
“Haha, Palace Master of Guanghan, it's been a while! Oh? The Holy Master of Yaoguang is also here? This should be the famous and renowned Qin Chen, Young Hero, right? Truly handsome and extraordinary.”
As soon as they landed, the leader, the Lord of Yonghe, smiled and spoke.
The Lord of Yonghe was dressed in a black long robe, elegant and refined, resembling a gentleman. The aura around him was quite vigorous, clearly not an ordinary person.
Beside him, the ethereal figure turned out to be a woman, wearing fine silk garments, with a plum blossom imprint on her brow. The plum blossom transformed into seven-petal snowflakes, emanating a hint of icy chill, appearing somewhat ethereal and otherworldly.
This woman was none other than the Palace Master of the top sect, Lingxue Palace, from Wenhan Tian.
The arrival of the two made the Palace Master of Guanghan frown slightly. She said faintly, “So it’s the Lord of Yonghe and the Palace Master of Lingxue. You two have graced us with your presence. Are you here to congratulate Guanghan Palace on its destruction of Ren Wang Palace, cutting down the dark forces of Wenhan Tian? Isn’t that a bit late?”
The Palace Master of Guanghan’s expression remained indifferent.
She was clearly provoking them. The news of Guanghan Palace's destruction of Ren Wang Palace and other forces had spread long ago. Most of the forces in Wenhan Tian had come to pay their respects, such as Tianyan Sect and Minghui Pavilion, even offering Holy Veins and other treasures, expressing their willingness to follow in Guanghan Palace's footsteps.
Yonghe Palace was the closest to Guanghan Palace, yet they only arrived now, clearly lacking sincerity.
“Ahem, Palace Master of Guanghan, you misunderstand me.” The Lord of Yonghe chuckled bitterly, “The reason I didn’t come to congratulate you right away is due to some matters that have tied me down. Thus, I specifically contacted the Palace Master of Lingxue to come and apologize. I actually want to explain to you, so you don’t misunderstand.”
“Oh? Explain? What is there to explain?” The Palace Master of Guanghan replied indifferently. “We are all forces of Wenhan Tian. Whether to come and congratulate is the freedom of every force. Although Guanghan Palace has destroyed Ren Wang Palace and other forces, it is because they colluded with the Demon Tribe, committed evil deeds, and brought disaster to the region. If Lord Yonghe, you have not done anything to offend Wenhan Tian or humanity, then there is no need to explain to me.”
“No, no, no.” The Lord of Yonghe waved his hands repeatedly: “An explanation is necessary. Moreover, I came specifically with the Palace Master of Lingxue because I was afraid that the Palace Master of Guanghan would misunderstand, and this matter is indeed related to the Palace Master of Lingxue, so we came together.”
“Oh? What exactly is the reason? I’d like to know.” The Palace Master of Guanghan pretended to be curious.
Qin Chen and the Holy Master of Yaoguang remained silent, wanting to see what scheme the Lord of Yonghe was up to.
“We have discovered a very important matter that relates to the rise and fall of Wenhan Tian,” the Lord of Yonghe said solemnly. “The reason the Palace Master of Lingxue and I did not come immediately to congratulate you is that we found a mysterious space containing a tremendous treasure, left behind from ancient times. It appears to be a legacy of some ancient top force. If we can open this treasure, our strength in Wenhan Tian could potentially increase tenfold, giving birth to countless Saint Masters. Even you, Palace Master of Guanghan, and the rest of us could advance into the mid-tier Saint Master realm.”
