When she found out that Yi Chen was Fiend King, Ye Zhen thought of many possibilities. How could he become a disciple of the Great Sage Sect? How could he hide it from the Supreme? Later, when she found out that many people from the major sects were possessed, she felt that this should be the reason why even the Supreme didn't find out that he was Fiend King.
She never thought that the Supreme would no longer be the Supreme Master of the Great Sage Sect.
Did the head of the Great Sage Sect lose his mind? The reason why the Great Sage Sect could have such status in the mainland was because of the Supreme Master's existence. Without the Supreme, the Great Sage Sect would have swallowed the Great Sage Sect whole.
"Supreme Master, what's going on?" Ye Zhen frowned.
The Supreme smiled faintly, without any regret on his face. "It was my negligence that allowed Fiend King to live in the Great Sage Sect for so long. However, I won't leave the Great Sage Sect. I'll still stay at Mount Xingyun."
"Actually, it's not your fault …" Ye Zhen sighed. "Fiend King was seriously injured by Emperor Mo. I think one of his hands was cut off. However, fortunately, Emperor Mo was there, otherwise I'd definitely … Forget it, it's all in the past."
"Ye Zhen, can you tell me why you left through the flying spirit ship?" The Supreme asked in a low voice.
"I …" Ye Zhen hesitated. "I want to find someone, but I'm not sure if he's in the Yan Region."
The Supreme looked at her for a while. "Who are you going to the Yan Region to find?"
"A very important person." Ye Zhen whispered, not wanting the Supreme to know of Ming Xi's existence.
Seeing that she didn't want to say, the Supreme didn't ask anymore. "Ye Zhen, when are you going back to Mount Xingyun?"
Ye Zhen was stunned. Was the Supreme here to take her back?
"I heard about that incident. You are a disciple of the Great Sage Sect. It won't change because of your identity." The Supreme said in a low voice.
"Supreme Master, do you believe that I didn't kill that wet nurse?" Ye Zhen asked with a smile. Now, many people should think of her as a vicious and vain person. In order to become the Ye family's daughter, she did not hesitate to kill her mute mother and frame Ye Jingshu. Who would believe that she had never seen Ye Jingshu at all?
The Supreme smiled. "I believe that you won't kill someone just to become the daughter of the Ye family."
"Thank you for believing in me." Ye Zhen smiled, "However, I still can't return to the Great Sage Sect."
"Even if you weren't the direct descendant of the Ye Family, your status and position in the Great Sage Sect wouldn't change." Shangshang said. "Or, have you really decided to marry Emperor Mo?"
Ye Zhen shook her head and chuckled. "I won't marry him."
Shang looked at her in surprise. "Did Emperor Mo force you to stay?"
"No, I wanted to stay." Ye Zhen said, "Tai Zun, the person I'm looking for is here. I actually … appeared on the mainland to find him. I will go back later."
"You speak as if you aren't from the Xuantian Continent." The Supreme Lord said calmly.
She really wasn't, even though she didn't understand why a person from the Human Continent like her would have a Heavenly Spirit Root and a Phoenix Jade Marrow Body. "Supreme Sovereign, I am indebted to you for taking care of me this past year. I am extremely grateful."
"I still hope that you can return to the Great Sage Sect. You don't have to be in such a hurry to reply. No matter if it's the Flame Domain or the others, they can all harm you. Only in Mount Xingyun will you be the safest," the High Lord said in a low voice.
Ye Zhen smiled. "Supreme Sovereign …"
"I said that I'm no longer a Supreme Sovereign." The Supreme Lord said, "Ye Zhen, if I see Fiend King in the future, I will kill him for you."
Although Ye Zhen didn't say it, he knew very well why Fiend King didn't hide his identity in the end. He knew from Chaoming that Ye Zhen had a Phoenix Jade Marrow Body, which was why he took her away. However, he still couldn't figure out how Emperor Mo could appear so quickly.
"Thank you." Ye Zhen picked up a cup of tea. "Thank you for your help this past year. Let me toast you with tea in place of wine."
"Alright." The Supreme Lord smiled and picked up the teacup. "I will stay in Tianhao City for some time. Whenever you change your mind, come to me at any time."
Ye Zhen smiled and nodded. She was very grateful to the Supreme.
The Supreme Lord looked at Ye Zhen with clear eyes. The two faced each other in silence, as if they had a lot to say but didn't know what to say.
"City Lord, what are you looking at here?" On the opposite side of the teahouse, Fire Phoenix was lying on the eaves. She stole a glance at Emperor Mo, who was hidden there. Others did not know that he was here, but Fire Phoenix and Emperor Mo were once telepathically connected, so she could immediately tell.
"When are you going to restore your original appearance?" Emperor Mo looked gloomily at Ye Zhen sitting by the window. She smiled so brightly at the Supreme. He had been with her for so long, but she had never smiled at him like this.
Fire Phoenix whispered, "City Lord, I have always been like this."
"Is that so?" Emperor Mo sneered. Did she not doubt the Supreme at all? How could she still talk and laugh with him?
"After all, I haven't been reborn for long …" Fire Phoenix laughed.
Emperor Mo turned his gaze from Ye Zhen to Fire Phoenix and asked, "So, you plan to hide it from Yao Yao?"
"City Lord, aren't you hiding it from her as well? I'm hiding it out of goodwill. Yao Yao will understand even if she finds out, but City Lord, what you are hiding … "Fire Phoenix felt a little sorry for Ye Zhen. The City Lord didn't tell Ye Zhen anything. When Ye Zhen returned to the human continent, she only found out that Mo Rongzhan was gone. He didn't even give her the chance to choose whether to stay in the human continent or the Xuantian Continent.
"Huh?" Emperor Mo looked at him coldly.
Fire Phoenix immediately pointed to the opposite side. "Supreme is really good to Yao Yao. He even wants to bring Ye Zhen back to Mount Xingyun."
"Do you think there is nothing suspicious about Supreme?" Emperor Mo asked lightly.
"Yes." Fire Phoenix nodded. "But he is really good to Ye Zhen."
Hearing this, Emperor Mo felt even more irritated.
"They are leaving," Fire Phoenix said. She saw that Supreme and Ye Zhen had already stood up and walked out of the teahouse side by side.
At this moment, a few people dressed in black walked towards Ye Zhen. They let out a shrill cry and two long and sharp iron claws appeared in their hands.
"Be careful!" Supreme protected Ye Zhen in his arms and pushed away all the men in black who were approaching her.
"Yao Yao …" Fire Phoenix shouted and flew down like a meteor.
Before the men in black could attack again, they were burned to ashes by Fire Phoenix.
Ye Zhen watched in surprise as the men in black turned into black smoke and disappeared into the air. "What is this?"
"It's a ghost. Someone wants to use ghosts to deal with you," Supreme said in a low voice.
"Qiu Hen!" Ye Zhen immediately thought of Qiu Hen. "He is a ghost cultivator. Is he in Tianhao City?"
Supreme did not speak. He looked up into the sky. "City Lord Mo."
