In the battle of Zhengyang City, the capital of the Western Qin Emperor, the Extraterrestrial Demons reappeared in the human world.
However, due to various reasons, the current mainstream theory about the Western Qin Emperor was not confirmed to be dead.
Therefore, after the battle of Zhengyang City, the top figures in the human world did not lose their positions.
However, just a few days after the battle of Zhengyang City, when everyone thought that everything was settled, the news of Mr. Tianji's death suddenly came out.
Everyone in the human world was shocked.
Comparatively speaking, Mister Tianji was always wandering outside, like a solitary cloud or a wild crane, it was hard to find traces of him. He was not like the abbot of the Western Paradise, the head of the Green Bull Monastery, or the emperors of the three empires who had a strong sense of existence.
But no one dared to look down on his personal strength.
Long before the battle of Zhengyang City against Blood River Ancestor, there were many legends about Mr. Tianji, all of which showed that he was one of the top ten experts in the human world.
In the battle of Zhengyang City, he was not seriously injured like the Sword Immortal and Abbot Pu Hui.
However, the Sword Immortal and Abbot Pu Hui were all fine, but Mr. Tianji died.
This caused everyone who heard the news to be momentarily stunned.
Everyone had their own opinions and it was a complete mess.
But it was said that Mr. Tianji's wife, the Palace Master of Xian Tian Palace, Shan Jing, was killed by the Ancient God and died because of the Ancient God.
While Mr. Tianji was looking for the Ancient God, he was ambushed and killed by Bie Donglai, Blood River Ancestor, and the Hierarch of the Ancient God.
Many righteous people felt sorry for him.
The death of Mr. Tianji also made people in the human world uneasy. They didn't know how the situation would develop next.
The Extraterrestrial Demons reappeared, the Western Qin Emperor disappeared, Mr. Tianji died, and the Sky River Sword Immortal was seriously injured.
In such a situation, Chen Luoyang and Jiang Yi came to the territory of the Dongzhou Dynasty and went to the mountain gate of the lineage of the Sky River.
From a distance, it looked like a fairy mountain. Halfway up the mountain, it was surrounded by a river suspended in the air.
The river surged, as if the land within a radius of five hundred kilometers had turned into a swamp. It was as if there was an ocean floating in the sky above the continent.
The river meandered upwards. From afar, the celestial mountain seemed to be shrouded in an underwater world.
Specks of starlight could be seen within the surging river water, rising and falling ceaselessly, giving birth to its own mysteries.
Chen Luoyang and Jiang Yi did not hide their tracks and swaggered out of the mountain.
Soon, a ray of sword light flew in front of them like a distant heavenly river. Then, it stopped.
The sword light receded, revealing a white-robed young man.
It was Shen Tianzhao, the "Milky Way Sword" whom Meng Qi had met in Zhengyang City. He was known as the "Little Sword Fairy" and was the most famous genius in swordsmanship among the younger generation of Milky Way, and even in the entire Secular World. He was ranked among the Ten Heroes of the Secular World and was recognized as the successor of the Old Sword Fairy.
"Hierarch Jiang, Deputy Hierarch Chen." The white-clothed youth looked at the two of them cautiously. "My master isn't feeling well. I'm afraid he won't be able to entertain the two of you."
"We're here at the behest of Mr. Tianji." Jiang Yi's smile was as warm as the spring breeze. "My young friend Shen, please send a message for Senior Yun to decide whether to meet us or not."
Before Shen Tianzhao could answer, the voice of the Old Sword Fairy came from the Milky Way, which was like a floating ocean. "Tianzhao, invite the guests in."
"Yes, Master." Shen Tianzhao said to Chen Luoyang and Li Mu, "Please follow me."
The distant sword light, which was like the Milky Way, seemed to have turned into a bridge.
Shen Tianzhao led the two into the Milky Way.
They didn't see many people along the way.
The Milky Way had always been sparsely populated. At present, there should be some people helping the Western Qin, so the mountain was relatively empty.
The few people they met by chance were all stunned when they saw Jiang Yi and Chen Luoyang.
And when they looked at Chen Luoyang, their eyes were filled with astonishment, and some people faintly showed resentment.
People in the Milky Way were no strangers to Jiang Yi, the Hierarch of the Ancient God of the Secular World and one of the top ten experts of the Devil Path.
Even if they hadn't seen her face to face, they at least knew her appearance.
As for Deputy Hierarch Chen, people in the Milky Way might be more familiar with him.
Yu Tao, the heir of the fourteenth level of the Milky Way.
Gao Nanzhai and Yang Xuan, the heir of the fifteenth level of the Milky Way.
Le Hang, the heir of the sixteenth level of the Milky Way.
All of them were killed by Chen Luoyang.
Among them, Yang Xuan was called "Milky Way Sword", and Le Hang was called "Star River Sword". They were almost the most outstanding disciples in the Milky Way at the same level.
But they were all killed in the world of the Secular World.
The younger generation of the Milky Way might not have completely withered, but they were greatly weakened.
In addition …
"By the way, your faction has a successor named Wang Di. How is he doing?" Chen Luoyang asked casually as they walked.
Shen Tianzhao paused and turned to look at Chen Luoyang.
"Thank you for your concern, Deputy Hierarch Chen. Senior Brother Wang is cultivating in seclusion."
Chen Luoyang nodded. "I hope we'll meet again in the future."
Jiang Yi looked at Chen Luoyang with a faint smile on his face.
As the ruler of the Ancient God, he was more or less aware of the outstanding talents that had emerged from other sacred grounds.
A certain Deputy Sect Master with the surname Chen had really touched on a sore spot just now.
Shen Tianzhao was extremely talented and powerful. It was even rumored that he was the fourth sword of the Secular World.
However, he was introverted and not good at socializing. There were few people close to him.
Apart from his Master, the old Sword Immortal, Wang Di was the one who had a closer relationship with his fellow disciples.
The two of them had known each other before they entered the sect. They had always been close friends and had outstanding talent in Sword Dao. They became famous together when they were young and were known as the "Indomitable Spirit".
However, as time went by, Wang Di's cultivation progress slowed down and he was left far behind by Shen Tianzhao. The gap between the two gradually widened.
However, after so many years, the relationship between the two did not diminish and they were still the best of friends.
Now, many people in the secular world knew that the reason why Wang Di had run out of talent and gradually fell behind was not because he had run out of talent, but because …
He was not in the right place.
Or to put it bluntly, the Milky Way was not the place for him to display his talent.
The place that was really suitable for him was the Blood River.
Once he changed his tune, he would immediately become a Sage!
However, for a disciple of the Milky Way, the truth was too embarrassing and tragic.
The whole Milky Way was really in a mess because of this.
And to some extent, the person who caused this mess was in front of Shen Tianzhao.
It was because they met Chen Luoyang in the Divine Land and faced with the threat of death brought by Chen Luoyang that Wang Di, the descendant of the Milky Way, and Xue Haoran, the descendant of the Blood River, exchanged swordsmanship.
They were reborn and killed their way out of danger in the Divine Land. At the same time, they also became traitors who were not accepted by the sect.
After Chen Luoyang came to the secular world, he heard that the Milky Way had taken over Wang Di, but they did not kill him in the end. Instead, they brought him back to the Milky Way to guard him.
It seemed that they still hoped to correct Wang Di and return to the right path.
Chen Luoyang and Jiang Yi followed Shen Tianzhao all the way forward.
Suddenly, he felt something and turned his head to the side.
There stood an old man in a linen robe.
The two of them looked at each other. Chen Luoyang smiled faintly, and the former Sword King of the Divine Land, Tao Wangji, had a slightly complicated look on his face.
Chen Luoyang nodded slightly, then looked away and walked to the back of the mountain with Shen Tianzhao.
When they arrived at the back of the mountain, they entered a small courtyard.
"Kacha, kacha."
The attention of Chen Luoyang and Jiang Yi was first attracted by a strange sound.
It sounded like she was eating melon seeds …
Chen Luoyang turned his head and saw a girl who looked to be about fifteen or sixteen years old sitting at the stone table, holding a handful of melon seeds in her hand. There was already a lot of melon seed shells on the table next to her.
On the other side of the table sat an old man. It was the old Sword Immortal.
However, with the situation on the other side of the table, the overall scene was a bit strange.
Speaking of which, Chen Luoyang had actually seen the portrait of the girl and recognized her.
The youngest giant figure in the secular world.
The Empress of East Zhou, Xu Ruotong.
If the news was right, she was only twenty-six years old this year.
Of course, she looked about ten years younger than her actual age.
However, looking at the small mountain of melon seed shells, Chen Luoyang was still a bit surprised. He did not expect the other party to look like this.
Jiang Yi was already used to it. She smiled and said, "So the Empress is here too."
The empress swallowed the food in her mouth and said, "Mister Tianji miscalculated, we can't just watch Elder Yun follow in Mister Tianji's footsteps."
"I am here because of Mister Ying's request." Jiang Yi smiled and nodded.
The old Sword Immortal said, "Hierarch Jiang, Little Friend Chen, forgive me for my injuries and not being able to get up to greet you. Please take a seat."
Hearing the way the old Sword Immortal addressed him, Chen Luoyang's eyes flickered.
The other party was differentiating him from the Ancient God.
There was a huge difference between the two.
Although Mister Tianji had asked him, the disciple of the legendary Supreme, to be a witness, the strength of the witness was something worth mentioning.
Not only was he a Vice Hierarch, but he also had the two battles in Zhengyang City and Xian Tian Palace, which showed that he was very close to the Ancient God.
He had never proven his trustworthiness and integrity before.
It was one thing to be a witness for others, but to be a witness for Jiang Yi, who was also an Ancient God, it was up to the listener to judge whether they believed it or not.
Southern Chu and Blood River had spread the news that Mister Tianji died in the hands of the Ancient God.
But now, Chen Luoyang and Jiang Yi could more or less understand the other party's attitude just by hearing the old Sword Immortal's address.
But what was the reason?
Chen Luoyang and Jiang Yi's expressions did not change. They sat down and occupied the four sides of the stone table with the old Sword Immortal and the empress.
"The Cult and Mister Ying are enemies, not friends. But even if he is an enemy, he deserves the courtesy of the Cult. That is why I have come here today to fulfill his unfulfilled wish and to deliver a message to Elder Yun." Jiang Yi said, "Luo Yang was also present at that time and was entrusted by Mister Ying to be a witness."
The old Sword Immortal nodded, "Hierarch Jiang, please speak."
