"Destruction, everyone is here. Let's go," an old woman with several scarlet spots on her face said.
This old woman was also a very senior Palace Master in Gumen. Her name was Palace Master Waterwood.
"Don't worry. Someone else hasn't arrived yet," Palace Master Destruction said.
"Someone else?" Palace Master Waterwood and the other Palace Masters were puzzled.
There were only nine experts in Gumen who had entered the Eternal Zone this time. Now, all of them had arrived.
Palace Master Destruction did not answer. He just smiled mysteriously. Mo Tao, Bai Yu, Ming Xin, and Ling Yu, who knew the truth, also smiled mysteriously, but did not say anything.
The nine people waited in the Heavenly Stone Valley for nearly half a day. Finally, a figure appeared in their sight.
"He's here!" Palace Master Destruction's eyes lit up.
The other Palace Masters also looked over one after another.
"Haha, sorry to keep you waiting."
Hearty laughter echoed in the Heavenly Stone Valley. In just a moment, Jian Wushuang, with a long sword on his back, appeared in front of the Palace Masters.
When they saw Jian Wushuang, Palace Master Destruction, Mo Tao, and the other Palace Masters were not surprised. However, Palace Master Waterwood and the other three Palace Masters were all stunned.
"Jian Wushuang?" Palace Master Waterwood opened his eyes wide and stared at Jian Wushuang.
The other three Palace Masters also looked at Jian Wushuang in horror, as if they had seen a ghost.
"You're really slow. If you wait another half a day, I'm afraid you won't be able to catch up," Palace Master Destruction said with a smile.
"I just went to deal with something, so I was delayed," Jian Wushuang said with a smile.
"Well, it's good that you made it in time. The wormhole should have been opened. Let's go," Palace Master Destruction said.
"Okay." Jian Wushuang nodded.
Immediately, all of Gumen's Palace Masters, including Jian Wushuang, headed for the edge of the Tianqi Mountains.
Along the way, the Waterwood Palace Master and the other three Palace Masters naturally asked Jian Wushuang some questions out of curiosity. Jian Wushuang answered them one by one. He didn't say anything that shouldn't be said.
After about two hours, they appeared at the edge of the Tianqi Mountain Range. At the same time, a wormhole appeared in front of them. This wormhole was temporarily opened and would not last for too long. If they missed it, they would have to wait another hundred years before they could leave.
"Jian Wushuang, we're about to leave the Eternal Zone. I have something to tell you." Palace Master Destruction looked at him.
"Please speak, Palace Master." Jian Wushuang listened carefully.
"You've stayed in the Eternal Zone for a hundred years. People in the outside world all thought you were dead, but you're alive and well. This will definitely arouse a lot of people's curiosity," Palace Master Destruction said solemnly.
"After all, the Eternal Zone is a land of great opportunities. For so many years, the experts of the various sects in the Firmament Territory have dealt with those Demon Gods for a long time. They're very familiar with those Demon Gods. They hate human beings very much. When they see human beings, they usually kill them without saying a word."
"However, you've been able to live in the homeland of the Demon God Clan for a hundred years. Not only that, but your strength has also improved tremendously."
"It's no wonder that they're curious about your experience in the past hundred years."
Speaking of this, Palace Master Destruction paused and then continued, "If nothing unexpected happens, the experts of those sects, especially the three magnates, will definitely question or even interrogate you as soon as you go out. So, you'd better think of a good excuse in advance."
When Palace Master Destruction said this, his tone was slightly meaningful.
Jian Wushuang naturally understood what Palace Master Destruction meant. He immediately nodded and said, "I've already thought of an excuse on my way here. I'll just say that I've found a secluded place to hide for a hundred years."
"Hide for a hundred years?" Palace Master Destruction and the others glanced at Jian Wushuang with strange expressions.
Even they did not believe Jian Wushuang's excuse, let alone the experts of the other sects and the three magnates.
However, Jian Wushuang really could not think of a good excuse. Should he just say that he also had the bloodline of the Ancient God Clan and that the Ancient Gods treated him as one of their own?
In that case, the three magnates and experts of other sects would definitely treat him as a delicious piece of cake.
After all, as a member of the Ancient God Clan and a Gold-armored Ancient God with part of the royal bloodline, his status in the Ancient God Clan was extremely high. Even the Three-star Ancient Gods of the Ancient God Clan were quite polite to him. As long as he wanted to, it would be easy for him to get some Baptismal Pools or Ancient God Essence Blood in the Ancient God Clan.
This was much faster than the experts of the various sects in the Firmament Territory entering the Tianqi Mountains every hundred years.
"Forget it. Since you can't think of an excuse, just make do with the whole thing. Anyway, the Eternal Zone is so big. It's possible that you found a secluded place to hide for a hundred years and did not meet any other Demon Gods." Palace Master Destruction smiled.
"In addition to your excuse for a hundred years, there's one more thing … A hundred years ago, when Palace Master Xuan Yi learned about your death, he was furious and killed seven Eternal Realm experts of the Cloud Sea Asgard. He also forced the other two magnates and other sects to give him a lot of Divine Gems to settle the matter!
"After all, you were the one who died at that time, and it was proven that the Cloud Sea Asgard did send disciples to kill you. In addition, Palace Master Xuan Yi's strength was tyrannical and intimidating. The three big sects and the other top sects could only swallow this matter!"
"But now, if the three magnates and other top sects find out that you're not dead, then the matter of a hundred years ago will not be resolved so easily."
"Uh!"
Hearing this, Jian Wushuang could not help but smile bitterly.
He did not expect that his Master would make such a big fuss when he learned that he was not out of the Eternal Zone.
"But after all, it was Palace Master Xuan Yi who did this. He's strong, so I think he'll have a solution. You don't have to worry too much. When you get out of the Eternal Zone, you can send a message to Palace Master Xuan Yi and ask him to clean up this mess," Palace Master Destruction said.
"Okay." Jian Wushuang nodded slightly, but he could not calm down at all.
He knew that he must have a big secret since he could stay in the Eternal Zone for a hundred years without dying.
Whether it was the three magnates or those top sects, they must be very eager to know his big secret.
For him, once he got out of the Eternal Zone, it would be a dragon's pool and a tiger's den!
"Counter soldiers with arms, water with an earth weir!"
"No matter what, I'll leave the Eternal Zone sooner or later. Since I can't avoid it, you can only face it head-on!"
Jian Wushuang clenched his hands, his eyes shining.
"Let's go!"
Palace Master Destruction said. The Palace Masters who followed Gumen, including Jian Wushuang, stepped into the wormhole in front of them.
Jian Wushuang finally left the Eternal Zone where he had stayed for a hundred years!
He had left the Ancient God Clan!
Perhaps one day, he would come back, but it would be many years later.
