Gongyang Jin did not speak.
She directly placed a personal jade pendant into Han Zhan's palm before continuing to speak.
"I need to stay in Fulong City to maintain the operations of the Anti-Xia Alliance and prepare for the Slaughter Battlefield, so I cannot accompany you to Buried Sword City."
"Elder Bing, you are an elder of the alliance and familiar with Buried Sword City, so you will lead the way."
"This jade pendant can prevent the Corpse Sword Spirit from attacking the wearer."
Gongyang Jin's actions explained everything.
Watching this scene, Elder Bing beca even more certain of the relationship between Gongyang Jin and Han Zhan.
He imdiately stood up, cupping his hands and saying, "I will follow the alliance leader's orders!"
"Buried Sword City is under Chen Tao's domain. Be careful," Gongyang Jin hesitated before reminding them.
Elder Bing suddenly sneezed.
He quickly apologized to Gongyang Jin, claiming there was an urgent matter at ho that he needed to handle, and left in a hurry.
Watching Elder Bing hasten his departure, Gongyang Jin retracted her gaze.
"Elder Bing, he must have already sensed the relationship between us."
Han Zhan smiled helplessly, "Elder Bing is clearly testing you with this. The Tier Nine Sword Remains turned into this after your adoptive father's death, and even you don't want to absorb it to break through to Tier Nine, yet you support in this matter."
"Even a foolish person should guess a thing or two, let alone Elder Bing."
At this, Han Zhan turned his face and looked at Gongyang Jin.
From the side, Gongyang Jin's profile revealed a few lingering monts of coldness, with strands of hair falling against her cheeks, highlighting her elegance.
"Is there really no problem?"
"If you an the Sword Remains, then no."
When Han Zhan repeated the question, Gongyang Jin still gave the sa answer.
"The deceased are gone. That's just a mutated Sword Spirit, unrelated to my adoptive father."
"I refuse to use that Sword Remains because it belongs to my adoptive father, and using it would tarnish my Sword Heart."
"But you are different, so I don't mind."
There was no need to continue.
Gongyang Jin turned around, the coldness on her face completely faded, replaced by a faint blush.
"It's still early..."
...
After Han Zhan was sent out of the bamboo forest.
The bamboo forest returned to its lush state. Watching the rustling bamboo ahead, Nuannuan humd lightly, seemingly discontented.
"If you hadn't sealed early here while I slept, do you really think you could trap ?"
Rustle, rustle.
No other sounds arose, only the rubbing sound of wind passing through the bamboo leaves.
In her green attire and thin veil, Nuannuan lifted her head slightly, her expression displeased.
"You say you're only borrowing my talent ability to find a successor? Ha, taking without asking is theft. You're a thief, so don't pretend to be noble."
Rustle, rustle!
The sounds in the bamboo forest grew louder.
"I'm not going to argue with you. If you want to start your Slaughter Battlefield, go ahead."
"If you continue to dwell here with , and those people successfully enter, I won't help you."
Once Nuannuan said this, the entire bamboo forest fell silent.
In the next instant, the bamboo forest world, which had been frozen in this spaceti, suddenly vanished.
The disappearance of the bamboo forest world made the previously bustling space-ti suddenly quiet.
The human tower, halfway built, seed poised to rise to the sa height as the bamboo forest world.
In the sky, a Void Starship crafted by the chanical Sect using Virtual-Real Technology,
and a massive black hand ford by a Fallen Knight using the Power of Corruption.
Both ca to an abrupt halt.
It looked sowhat comical.
Reality.
A certain location on the westernmost side of the City of Extre Evil.
Here was an unimaginably large chasm, with no bottom in sight.
Beside the chasm sat a makeshift shack, as if it might be swept into the abyss by a gust of wind at any mont.
A middle-aged man, resembling a ship captain, lay on a recliner with his eyes closed, resting.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes, and a fleeting hostility appeared on his otherwise unchanging face.
"Failed."
"Just a bit more, and we would have touched that mysterious land."
"Who is that young man?"
The Life and Death Apostle closed his eyes again, while Han Zhan looked to the ground, the Life and Death Apostle below also noticed him.
"Why did he appear in that mysterious land, how did he do it?"
The Life and Death Apostle muttered the question repeatedly and then leaped off the cliff edge.
Sun Never Sets Port, Central Church.
A cold snort, seemingly from the depths of endless darkness, echoed in the Church.
The Fallen Knight opened his eyes, and his masked eyes ignited with pure black flas.
"It's you!"
"Bob!"
He had connected that space through the Path of Corruption, but the anchor point that should have fixed in ti and space lost control in an instant, also affecting the Path of Corruption, ending the connection.
However, when he used the Power of Corruption to form a giant black hand, slamming it against the Bamboo Forest World's Protective Shield, he saw a familiar figure.
It was the knight who had claid to be "Bob" during their previous encounter in the chanical Sect Mine.
He had appeared inside the Bamboo Forest World!
Who on earth is he!
In the Fallen Knight's palm, a ball of pure black flas began to burn, eventually separating into two palm-sized black crows from his palm.
"Go, get Yu Lian and Zhan Ning, I have a new task for them to complete."
"I need them to kill Bob, at any cost!"
chanical Sect, Ruins Capital.
The recent three-party battle seed to have no effect on the Ruins Capital.
Because it was already in a state of ruin.
Buried deep beneath the Ruins Capital, on an old computer, a new line of text flashed quickly.
"Successfully hacked into the opponent's external chip."
"Successfully reverse-invaded the external chip database center."
"Digital Demon program deployed."
"Investigating target: Han Zhan, confird."
"Investigating target's strength: Tier Six Peak, suspected Tier Seven."
"Investigating target's identity: Great Xia's new leader (externally), Anti-Xia Alliance Vice Alliance Leader (City of Extre Evil)."
"Assessing target's potential threat level: SSS Level!"
"Beginning location activation and target's latest coordinate analysis!"
...
In Dawn City, 100 kiloters in a straight line from Buried Sword City.
Chen Tao awoke from a trance.
He went to the window, opened it, and a magpie chirped as it hopped inside.
Before Chen Tao could react, it flew straight into the wall and died.
Blood instantly stained the entire wall.
The crimson blood began to coagulate and rearrange on the wall, forming new words.
"Han Zhan is about to head to Buried Sword City."
"Kill him!"
Suddenly, Chen Tao opened his eyes to find himself still lying in bed.
What just happened seed to be a re nightmare.
Chen Tao wiped the cold sweat oozing from his forehead, and his gaze turned incredibly cold once more.
Murderous intent filled the air.
