"Have you heard? An earth-shattering event happened in Xiyu City."
"I heard that someone kidnapped Ji Wuhui and Leng Aoxue, infuriating Cheng Yu. Now, he's searching for the culprit in the city."
"It's said that many big shots in the North Emperor Continent have come for Ji Wuhui's wedding. This person actually dares to be so arrogant. I wonder who he is."
"I think he's either a fugitive or an existence even stronger than Cheng Yu. Otherwise, it's impossible for Cheng Yu to not be able to do anything to him."
"Makes sense. I really want to see what this person looks like. Does he have three heads and six arms?"
"Don't joke around. This kind of person is ruthless. I'm afraid that the moment we see him, we'll lose our lives."
"…"
Just as he appeared in the Heavenly Gate Square, such discussions poured into Wutian's ears, causing him to smile bitterly.
Steadying himself, he put his hands behind his back, bent his back, and walked shakily towards the teleportation gate.
The surrounding people also noticed his existence, but they only gave him a quick glance.
Teleportation gate.
Four Mystic Palace Ninth Tribulation Enforcers were guarding the gate. Their eyes were bright, and their auras were imposing.
When they saw an old man walking over, the four of them looked at each other. One of them took a big step forward. His gaze softened as he smiled, "Old man, where are you going?"
"Cough cough!"
Wutian coughed a few times and said hoarsely, "Young man, I heard that a god has descended in Xiyu City. So, this old man wants to go and see what a high and mighty god looks like."
Hearing this, the four Enforcers were stunned.
The surrounding crowd was also astonished. The scene fell into a dead silence. But in the next moment, everyone burst into laughter.
"Old man, you're really indulging in fantasy. A god is a god. How can you see one just because you want to?"
"That's right. Besides, with your body, you can't even walk steadily. Even if you see a god, you'll be scared witless."
"Isn't that so? Even we don't dare to go. Old man, don't join in the fun."
The crowd tried to persuade him, but they were all mocking him.
Scanning the crowd, the four law-enforcement officers frowned slightly. The displeasure on their faces was clear, but it was undeniable that what they said was the truth.
The law enforcer in front of Wutian smiled and said, "Old man, although their words are unpleasant, they are not wrong. You should hurry back home and enjoy your remaining years!"
"That's right. You're just a bunch of old bones. Stop running around."
"If you overestimate yourself, you will lose your life. Old man, you look like you can still live for a few more years. Don't do anything foolish."
The crowd followed suit.
The Enforcer's face turned cold as he shouted, "All of you, shut up! Whoever dares to say another word will be killed without mercy!"
"My Lord, we're just doing this out of goodwill!"
"That's right. If we don't help when we see an old man jumping into a fire pit, are we still human?"
The crowd began to protest. As long as they were on the side of reason, they were not afraid of the law enforcers.
The two sides talked for a long time, but Wutian, the person involved, did not take it to heart at all.
However, he knew that if he did not show some strength, he would not be able to go to Xiyu City today.
"Cough, cough. Although I'm old, when I was young, I was also a man of indomitable spirit. You don't believe me? Well, this old man will show you. "
Wutian put his hands on his waist and slowly twisted his body. It looked like he was stretching his muscles and bones, which amused the crowd around him.
"Old man, can you do it or not?"
"If you can't, hurry up and leave. Don't show off here."
Boom!
Suddenly!
Wutian straightened his back. A powerful aura burst out of his body like a torrent of wild beasts, rolling in all directions!
This sudden turn of events caused the hearts of the surrounding crowd to be alarmed as they instinctively retreated.
Even the law-enforcement officers standing in front of Wutian were the same.
"You young people, don't look down on us old people. Sometimes, old people can't be underestimated."
Wutian said indifferently. Then, he withdrew his aura, bent his back, and turned to walk toward the portal.
When he passed by the four law-enforcement officers, Wutian laughed hoarsely and said, "The four of you are not bad. I hope you can maintain this mentality and continue to work hard."
Then, he waved his hand and ten million essences flew into the air. He activated the portal and walked in shakily.
The law-enforcement officer standing in front of Wutian looked at the back of the old man and said, "It's so strange. The aura he exudes is clearly only at the sixth tribulation, but why do I feel scared?"
Another law-enforcement officer said, "Me too. I feel like I'm facing a ferocious beast. It seems that this person is not as simple as he looks. He's probably a hidden expert. "
"Old man, please wait."
Suddenly, a clear and melodious voice rang out.
Wutian looked back and saw a graceful and elegant woman in white walking out of the crowd.
"Second Venerable!"
Wutian was delighted. He didn't expect to meet Ye Yangxue here. He said hoarsely, "So it's you. Come here, let's go to Xiyu City together."
"Okay."
Ye Yangxue turned into a stream of light and rushed in just as the portal was about to close.
Xiyu City, Heavenly Gate Square.
At this moment, this place was also heavily guarded. They were all law-enforcement officers of the underground palace. Their faces were solemn and their eyes were bright. They didn't dare to be distracted.
Seeing Wutian and Ye Yangxue appear one after another, one of the law-enforcement officers shouted, "The two of you, leave quickly. Don't stay here."
"Yes, yes, yes. I'll leave immediately. Yangxue, come and help me," Wutian said.
Ye Yangxue was slightly stunned but immediately understood. She went forward and held Wutian's arm like a filial daughter supporting her father. She kept reminding Wutian to be careful while slowly walking out of the Heavenly Gate Square.
…
Ji Yue Tower.
In a private room called the Spring Fragrance Pavilion, Wutian and Ye Yangxue sat opposite each other.
Wutian had chosen to come here as he believed that the most dangerous place was the safest place.
Observing Wutian's appearance, Ye Yangxue could not help but chuckle. She shook her head and said, "Wutian, I haven't seen you for many years, but you're still so mysterious."
"Really? I think I'm fine by myself! "
Wutian scratched his head and asked as if he suddenly recalled something, "Second Venerable, how did you recognize me?"
"Hehe, I've watched you grow up. How could I not recognize you?" Ye Yangxue said with a smile.
Wutian was startled. He glanced at the beautiful woman opposite him and felt a sense of intimacy that he had not felt for a long time.
That's right, if it weren't for this woman, the Great Venerable, and the Twelfth Brother who had lent him a helping hand when he was in trouble, he would have turned into a pile of dirt by now!
Ye Yangxue thought that Wutian had suffered a blow. She said with a smile, "Actually, you're quite good at acting. I didn't recognize you at first, but when you revealed your aura and intimidated everyone, I saw your eyes. I've only seen such a determined look on your face before, so I knew you were Wutian."
"I see." Wutian smiled and asked, "Second Venerable, weren't you with Shan Youde and the others? Why are you here in West Nether City?"
"Sigh!"
Ye Yangxue sighed softly and said, "I'm here specifically for you."
Wutian frowned. He finally noticed that Ye Yangxue looked rather haggard. His heart shuddered as he hurriedly asked, "Did something happen to you?"
"Mm," Ye Yangxue nodded and stared at Wutian, "Ye Yi and Cang Muxue are dead."
"What?"
Wutian suddenly stood up and looked at her in disbelief.
He remembered that the Jade-faced Torch Dragon was with the four of them.
Before entering the Celestial realm, the Jade-faced Torch Dragon already had the strength of a Great Sage. With this strength, as long as they didn't provoke trouble and offend the Heavenly Soldiers and Demon Soldiers, it wouldn't be a problem for them to stay alive.
But now, Ye Yi and Cang Muxue were dead. He found it hard to believe.
"Sigh!"
Ye Yangxue sighed deeply again and explained, "We went to the Dongge Continent back then. Everything was going well at first. But not long ago, when the Jade-faced Torch Dragon broke through to the Great Sage Minor Mastery, a Thunder Tribulation descended and attracted the attention of the Heavenly Generals and Demon Generals of the Dongge Continent."
Wutian said, "Then they became greedy and wanted to subdue the Jade-faced Torch Dragon?"
"That's right. The Jade-faced Torch Dragon was arrogant and unruly. Naturally, he wouldn't submit. So the two of them captured the four of us and used us as bargaining chips to threaten the Jade-faced Torch Dragon. The Jade-faced Torch Dragon didn't compromise at first, but when Ye Yi and Cang Muxue were killed one after another, he had no choice but to compromise."
Ye Yangxue sighed.
Wutian asked, "Where's Shan Youde?"
"He's still in the Dongge Continent."
Ye Yangxue said that after the Jade-faced Torch Dragon submitted, the Heavenly Soldiers and Demon Generals had no time to take care of them and released them directly.
After that, they thought of many ways, but none of them could save the Jade-faced Torch Dragon. So, after some discussion, they unanimously decided to come to the Xiling Continent to seek help from Wutian.
In terms of life experience and foresight, Ye Yangxue was obviously better than Shan Youde. Therefore, the task of finding Wutian fell on Ye Yangxue, while Shan Youde stayed in the Dongge Continent to monitor the movements of the Heavenly Soldiers and Demon Generals.
However, no matter how intelligent Ye Yangxue was, she couldn't find any news about Wutian. Just when she was about to give up, she suddenly remembered that Wutian had once used the name Gu Yi in the Samsara Continent.
So, with a fluke mentality, she followed this clue all the way. Later, she learned that Gu Yi was dead. However, when she heard the details of the battle between Wutian and Ji Baoyun, she immediately judged that Wutian was definitely not dead.
However, this clue about Gu Yi was cut off because of this. In the end, she decided to stay in the Heavenly Gate Square of the West Underworld City and wait for him. She didn't expect that she would find him.
"Aunt Ye, thank you for your hard work. Don't worry, I will find a way to save the Jade-faced Torch Dragon!" Wutian clenched his fists and said solemnly.
