Two hours later.
Within the Ten-Thousand-Mile Mountains, more than a hundred Jiyue Pavilion gods were utterly wiped out.
And the Eighth Elder Du Yu, besieged by Zhu Xincheng and Xiao Nanxing, died with his blade shattered.
With a sweep of Xiao Nanxing’s wide sleeve,
Du Yu’s divine body turned to dust, drifting on the wind until it vanished without a trace.
After finishing all this, he exchanged a glance with Zhu Xincheng and led the people of Zuixin Valley away from the place.
Zhu Xincheng did not linger either, taking Tang Jiansheng and flying toward Lieyang Gate.
Before setting out, she even made a point of rewarding him with a mask to wear.
There was no helping it—Tang Jiansheng was a trump card with far more uses ahead, and must not be discarded here.
However, after everyone had departed,
a figure slowly descended upon the site.
The man’s face was calm and his build tall; if Du Yu had not died, he would have recognized at a glance that this was Yin Yu, the Third Elder of Jiyue Pavilion.
In the dream, he had been the backing of the old dog Gou Langtu and the one who recruited him into Jiyue Pavilion.
When the old dog made his conjectures, Yin Yu chose to believe without hesitation and personally led a force to slaughter the gods supporting Zuixin Valley.
But in the real world, that did not happen.
Yin Yu had not kept very close to Gou Langtu.
His appearance here was purely because he happened to be passing by.
Taking in the empty scene, Yin Yu furrowed his brows slightly.
Although Zuixin Valley had cleaned up the corpses of the Jiyue Pavilion gods,
the faint sll of blood still hung in the air.
Yin Yu naturally sensed that sothing was wrong.
He lifted a hand and lightly rubbed his fingertips.
In short order, a wisp of remnant soul gathered anew.
It belonged to a Jiyue Pavilion god; at this mont the soul flickered in and out, on the verge of collapse at any ti.
That was because Yin Yu had forcibly summoned it.
Recalling a scattered soul and calling it back could ➤ NоvеⅠight ➤ (Read more on our source) not reforge the soul-body,
but maintaining it for a brief span to search a bit of mory was extrely easy.
Very quickly, Yin Yu learned everything from the soul.
He had not expected such a spectacular affair to have taken place here.
Zuixin Valley and Lieyang Gate had actually colluded to exterminate two elders of Jiyue Pavilion and over a hundred gods.
They really had the gall!
Most crucial of all, Tang Jiansheng had even thrown in with Zhu Xincheng.
If not for his sudden defection and the preemptive beheading of the Seventh Elder Chen Guangju,
Zhu Xincheng and Xiao Nanxing would never have won so neatly!
Whether Tang Jiansheng was sincere, or coerced and his mind controlled,
as long as he was alive, he was a trendous threat to Jiyue Pavilion.
After all, he still bore the title of elder.
During the seclusion of the Divine Alliance Lord of Jiyue Pavilion, the elders held great power.
By normal procedure, Yin Yu should have imdiately returned to Jiyue Pavilion to make public everything he knew,
then lead the elders to launch a furious revenge against Lieyang Gate and Zuixin Valley,
and issue a kill order for Tang Jiansheng.
But Yin Yu had no intention of doing that.
Since Zuixin Valley and Lieyang Gate dared to annihilate so many Jiyue Pavilion gods here, it ant they certainly had a backhand prepared.
All he needed to do was watch the changes quietly.
See just how far these two divine alliances could make the turmoil go.
So long as the commotion grew large enough, he was even willing to lend them a hand.
There was no helping it—Jiyue Pavilion had been tranquil for too long. It was ti for so people to die and for those truly capable to rise to power.
That was healthy developnt.
A fanatic gleam flashed in Yin Yu’s eyes.
Then his figure vanished completely from the spot.
Elsewhere, in the newly built city at Zhung Mountain,
Ye Yu and Gu Ji leaned against one another.
Everything was exactly the sa as in the dream.
Gu Ji’s gaze toward the evening glow was incomparably gentle, but Ye Yu looked a bit forced.
A few hours earlier, Gu Ji had suddenly asked about Yinghuo and Yu Buxia.
Ye Yu had no choice but to claim that they, like her, were dao partners from parallel worlds.
When I ca, I t them too.
If they hadn’t told you were inside Jiyue Pavilion, who knows how many needless detours I would have run.
Ye Yu had intended to use this as an excuse to ease the temper of this tigress and blunt her hostility toward Yinghuo.
To be fair, if you tally it up, your smooth breakthrough to the Heavenly God realm had their contribution in it.
But Ye Yu still underestimated Gu Ji’s hostility toward Yinghuo.
Originally—
after separating from the parallel world, Gu Ji began searching everywhere for Ye Yu’s whereabouts, hoping to renew their bond.
On that road she encountered many dangers, even straying into a sacred-beast forbidden ground and nearly falling to her death.
Later, the Grand Elder of Jiyue Pavilion appeared and saved her life.
The Grand Elder admired Gu Ji greatly, brought her back to the divine alliance to heal,
and invited her to join Jiyue Pavilion, even promising to use the alliance’s strength to find your dao partner Ye Yu.
That was far better than you searching aimlessly alone.
Persuaded by the Grand Elder, Gu Ji had no reason to refuse.
Thus her presence in Jiyue Pavilion ca about.
Everything had been going well; Gu Ji cherished the hope of using Jiyue Pavilion’s intelligence network to locate Ye Yu.
But all of a sudden, two won arrived at the door, asking for her by na.
Upon eting, one of them imdiately declared that Ye Yu was her dao partner.
What, here to snatch him by force?
Do you really take for a pushover to be kneaded at will?
That tone, Gu Ji simply could not swallow!
Even now, after finding Ye Yu, she still held an obsession regarding Yinghuo.
In this life she must defeat that woman fair and square at least once!
Otherwise she would never swallow that breath for the rest of her life!
Seeing the conversation had reached this point, Ye Yu could not say more, much less suggest
that she go to the City of Balance as well.
You’re kidding—if the two of them t, wouldn’t they be locking horns every day?
In that case, it would be better to return to the newly built city at Zhung Mountain.
When the ti cos, have Shen Fuxin co over too—two against two, and no one will feel too lonely.
Gu Ji agreed one hundred and twenty percent with Ye Yu’s proposal about returning to the new city.
She liked this place very much.
In her view, this newly built city was the ho she shared with Ye Yu.
Returning here was naturally a very happy thing.
Suddenly, a tremor ca.
Gu Ji took a communication stone from her storage ring; upon connecting, an icy voice ca through.
"Everyone who went to Zhuiyang Gorge has lost contact. Are you alright now?"
Hearing this, Gu Ji looked to Ye Yu instinctively.
Only then did she speak: "I’m fine. We were ambushed by many people. Fortunately, my dao partner arrived and took out of the danger zone. After that, I don’t know what happened."
Gu Ji’s voice grew lower and lower, clearly tinged with self-reproach.
