“What is it?” Zi Jinghu frowned as Zi Liuchen’s exclamation aroused everyone’s curiosity.
Zi Liuchen couldn’t help cursing at himself inwardly. He was too careless. Anyway, it had already happened. He had no choice but to reply truthfully. “Master, do you remember the young man who rescued Huoyun Yurou’s granddaughters?”
Zi Jinghu suddenly recalled the information. He asked. “You mean….?”
Zi Liuchen nodded and turned to Du Huanfeng. “Weeks ago, our people were chasing after Huoyun Yurou’s granddaughters and met a young man with a snow tiger. Later, I saw him enter the Fire Cloud Rat Clan’s Ancestral Land.”
Woah—
Hearing this, everyone immediately understood everything. Coupled with the fact that no one had ever heard anything about Huoyun Tian before. There was a high chance that Huoyun Tian was the same person as the young man in Zi Liuchen’s words.
“See? What I said is true, right? Honestly, I didn’t know before that you guys are lenient toward humans now.” Du Huanfeng laughed slightly and turned to Huoyun Yurou. “And even accepted them into your clan.”
“Liar! How could Brother Huoyun be a human?” Yu Jiao’er refuted angrily.
Yu Rongxi frowned slightly and raised her hand to stop Yu Jiao’er.
“Master….” Yu Jiao’er looked at her master in doubt.
Yu Rongxi ignored her and asked Huoyun Yurou through a sound transmission. “Senior…”
Before Yu Rongxi could finish her sentence, Huoyun Yurou had already answered. “It’s true. He’s a human.”
Yu Rongxi’s pupils enlarged in shock. She had never expected Huoyun Yurou to actually accept a human into her clan, counting her unpleasant past with humans. She felt that she couldn’t understand Huoyun Yurou anymore.
Jin Yang noticed Yu Rongxi’s expression. He immediately understood everything. Everything Du Huanfeng said was likely to be true. A complicated emotion appeared in his heart. He was grateful that Yun Lintian saved his son’s life and even vented his hatred for him, but profound beasts and humans had a long story. It was difficult for him to accept Yun Lintian’s identity for the time being.
An idea flashed across Tianqi Junlai’s mind. He turned toward Yun Lintian and asked. “Is it true?”
Yun Lintian, who was busily unsealing Guchang’s profound strength, tilted his head and replied casually. “Yes, I am that Mu Chen.”
“Woah!” The crowd immediately exclaimed in shock. Even though they had guessed about it, the sudden revelation still strongly impacted them.
Du Huanfeng was surprised and became vigilant. He thought Yun Lintian would keep denying it to the end, but he actually admitted it casually. After dealing with Yun Lintian a few times, he had learned to be cautious. Since Yun Lintian dared to admit it, there must be something behind this.
With this thinking, Du Huanfeng secretly communicated with Du San and let the latter make a preparation.
Meanwhile, Tianqi Junlai smiled faintly. He looked at Huoyun Yurou and asked. “Do you know the consequence of betraying the Nine Profound Beast Palace?”
“Hehe.” Huoyun Yurou let out a cold laugh. “I naturally aware of it, but don’t you think those oaths are worthless since the day you provided every convenience for the Myriad Pill Palace? Heh, don’t make me laugh, Tianqi Junlai.”
Tianqi Junlai replied indifferently. “It’s different. What I did was based on the palace’s benefits. The deal I have with the Myriad Pill Palace is simply exchanging for resources. Unlike you, Huoyun Yurou. Not only did you take a human in, but you also brought him here to deceive all of us… You’ve committed treason, do you aware of it?”
The crowd held their breath in shock. They were aware of the consequence of the treason crime. The Fire Cloud Rat Clan might be expelled from the Nine Profound Beast Palace and even the Western Continent!
The expressions of Yu Rongxi and Jin Yang changed drastically, but they immediately became determined. They were about to fight the Sky Qilin Clan soon, anyway. There was no point in fearing this crime.
“Do you think everyone here is stupid? Whether this crime exists or not, you will find a way to get rid of us in the end. So, let’s cut the crap and bring it on.” Huoyun Yurou said coldly, and her aura immediately covered the entire arena.
“No hurry. Let us deal with this human first.” Tianqi Junlai didn’t seem to care about Huoyun Yurou’s taunt. He looked at Yun Lintian and said. “Capture him.”
“Now!” Huoyun Yurou said solemnly, and the clouds in the sky instantly transformed into a sea of flame, descending upon the arena.
Meanwhile, Jin Yang and Yu Rongxi quickly released their profound energy to lock onto the Purple-Winged Tiger Clan and the Great Roc Clan.
Zi Taiyang abruptly stood up with a grin hung on his face. “I’ve waited for this moment for a long time. It’s finally here.” As he finished his sentence, his figure shot toward Huoyun Yurou. A pair of purple wings appeared on his back, and his hands transformed into tiger claws.
“Scram!” Huoyun Yurou bellowed. A powerful crimson aura burst out and blasted upon the incoming Zi Taiyang.
“Hmph! Don’t treat me like that idiot Pei Fengwen!” Zi Taiyang snorted. He swung his claws forward, and three purple crescent-shaped energy blades instantly shot toward Huoyun Yurou’s aura.
BOOM! 𝗻𝐨𝐯𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺
A deafening explosion created a powerful impact to sweep everyone nearby away. The crowd ran away in all directions with their life. The battle between these powerhouses wasn’t something they could withstand. How could they dare to stay here further?
“Honestly, your disguise technique is one of the best I have ever seen. Unfortunately, you can only blame yourself for being careless.” Du Huanfeng unfolded his jade fan and waved it leisurely.
Yun Lintian shrugged his shoulders. “As expected from you, Young Master Du. You can actually follow the trace I have deliberately left behind. Aside from being stupid and arrogant, I didn’t expect you to have a good nose, too. Next time I want to find someone, I will look for your service then.”
Du Huanfeng’s face darkened instantly. This bastard actually treated him like a dog? He tried his best to stay calm and responded coldly. “Do you think Huoyun Yurou can protect you? Heh, what an ignorant you are. The water here is deeper than you think.”
“Thank you for your concern. I’ll excuse myself first.” Yun Lintian smiled brightly, and his figure disappeared, along with Guchang and Fan. In the next moment, he reappeared beside Mu Qiuxue and vanished altogether.
Du Huanfeng’s expression abruptly changed as he cursed. “Damn it! That movement technique again!”
