Xuanji was once again taken aback. Behind him, Heipao Lao's hands began to tremble as he thought regretfully, I was really foolish! I actually considered taking action just now!
Neither of them doubted Chen Moxuan's words. It was simple; in the entire Yun Miao Sheng Zhou, only the four great Holy Lands and the Ten Thousand Demons Mountain might have a few records about such people or forces. The strong individuals of the Mortal Empire were indeed powerful, but they often engaged in chaotic battles. Furthermore, with the constant changes of dynasties, many records had been lost over time. Therefore, those who knew about these matters must be backed by someone with significant strength.
Xuanji took a deep breath. "Are you saying that even the Immortal Emperor cannot defeat the Blood Emperor?"
Chen Moxuan nodded. "My master's injuries haven't fully healed yet. Although I have cut Blood Earth into seven pieces, his Blood Sea remains outside. If the Blood Sea is his contingency plan, he may already be prepared to revive Blood Earth at any moment and help him recover quickly to his peak state."
"The path Blood Earth has taken is unlike anyone else's. His cultivation method prevents him from being killed. Even if his soul is shattered into pieces and his body is torn apart, as long as he is given flesh and blood, he can quickly recover."
"As for my master... well, never mind. This isn't something I should discuss with you. Just remember not to spread this information recklessly. If any rumors arise outside regarding your Heavenly Pivot Sacred Land, I will have no choice but to take drastic measures."
Xuanji immediately glanced behind him; the old man quickly shook his head and even used spiritual power to block his ears, looking as if he never wanted to hear any secrets again.
"Is there really no other way?" Xuanji Saintess asked.
Chen Moxuan shook his head. "For now, this is all we can do. But don't worry; we will do our best to control the situation and prevent it from spiraling out of control."
Just as he spoke, Tiger Brother's ears perked up slightly. "Someone is coming—more Feizhou."
Chen Moxuan's eyes immediately scanned the surroundings, but his expression turned grim. If the appearance of these Feizhou disrupted his plans, he would truly be furious.
As one person and one tiger pondered their next move...
Beside her, Xuanji spoke awkwardly. "It was my mistake. I thought that the human general in the magical armor had already been controlled. So, before I met you, I contacted the sect. It should be our people from Heavenly Pivot Sacred Land."
Chen Moxuan sighed, "What a mess this has turned into." Soon, various flying vessels appeared in the sky, creating a grand spectacle. Some vessels coiled like giant dragons, others spread their wings like phoenixes, and some floated above like enormous lotus flowers. These flying vessels carried the strong from Heavenly Pivot Sacred Land. They were either armored warriors or cultivators wielding magical artifacts.
With their grand arrival, Chen Moxuan noticed that the army digging into the mountain was sounding the retreat. Suddenly, one person leaped down from the flying vessel above. Chen Moxuan looked at Xuanji and said, "Don't reveal my identity. From now on, you represent me. Also, do not mention anything about Blood Earth."
"Why?" Xuanji asked, puzzled. "Isn't it better if we work together?"
Chen Moxuan thought of Han Yuan Wang. He had always felt that Han Yuan Wang was definitely not dead. It would be good if he was mistaken, but if he was right, it meant that forces from other continents were involved. Han Yuan Wang was indeed a genius, but no matter how talented he was, he couldn't have created a Great Divine Ability at the level of Heavenly Gang List on his own! If he could create it himself, he would have to face heavenly punishment; even the Yin Yang Boundary Diagram, no matter how extraordinary, couldn't withstand such attacks.
So the absence of heavenly punishment indicated that Han Yuan Wang's Great Divine Ability came from somewhere else. With this thought, Chen Moxuan expressed his fears. Working together was good, but what if there were traitors among the people? "So just listen to me. This matter cannot even be mentioned to your master; otherwise, I really won't be able to hold back."
Xuanji sensed Chen Moxuan's seriousness; she felt an unmasked killing intent from him for the first time. Just as they were talking, Tiger Brother concealed his presence nearby. The man who had jumped down from the flying vessel swiftly approached and fixed his gaze on Xuanji.
"Saintess," he said eagerly, "as soon as Shidu received your message, he immediately brought people here! But who is this? I feel like I've seen him somewhere before."
Shidu shifted his gaze to Chen Moxuan.
Chen Moxuan met Shidu's eyes, feeling a bit puzzled. His past with Xuanji was long gone; after so much time, could anyone still remember it? Just as Chen Moxuan was lost in thought, Shidu's gaze flickered between Xuanji and him, revealing a hint of jealousy.
"I remember now," Shidu exclaimed. "Previously, Sui Xing Feng's Wang Hu painted your face and said you were the only love of the Saintess!"
Shidu had heard of Chen Moxuan's name long ago, but he never expected that after all this time, he would still be alive. Chen Moxuan was also surprised; after such a long period, he still had a bit of fame.
He leaned closer to Xuanji and whispered, "I can't believe you're almost a thousand years old and still have young admirers!"
Xuanji shot him a glare. "As long as I maintain my beauty, even at ten thousand years old, I’ll still attract attention."
Coughing slightly, Chen Moxuan reflected on himself and thought that perhaps she was right; he felt as if he could live for ten thousand years too.
"What? You’re an old bull going after tender grass!" Xuanji scoffed. "When we were together, you were already thousands of years old while I was just blossoming!"
Chen Moxuan rubbed his nose, feeling a bit embarrassed. "Well, how can the love of cultivators be measured by age? My mindset has always been that of a twenty-year-old. You know me; back then, I created romantic moments for you when you hadn't even seen them before."
Seeing this exchange, Shidu grew anxious. He clearly felt uncomfortable with the way Chen Moxuan and Xuanji interacted.
"Saintess, please don’t let yourself be deceived by those with ulterior motives!" he urged. "Moreover, Master Ancestor said that if you see Chen Moxuan again, you must tell her. Master Ancestor warned that this guy is a calamity in your fate."
Chen Moxuan frowned. He wanted to remain silent but felt anger rising within him at Shidu's words and the mention of that so-called Master Ancestor.
"Shidu," he retorted sharply, "are you questioning the judgment of your Xuanji Saintess?"
Shidu was taken aback; he hadn’t expected Chen Moxuan to retaliate directly and found himself at a loss for words.
Chen Moxuan continued, "Since you're so capable, Xuanji, why not send him to disrupt Su Mingyu's plans? Make it so that Su Mingyu can't even find peace in the restroom!"
