"Don't kill me! Don't kill me!"

Ouyang Shan was scared to the point of wetting his pants, utterly terrified, and said, "Aunt, please don't kill me, I know I was wrong."

"Elder Mi Yuan, I truly realize my mistakes, I will change in the future, please plead for me, I really don't want to die."

Elder Mi Yuan acted as if he didn't hear, looked at the Ice Phoenix, and smiled, "Ice Phoenix, I'll leave the rest to you."

With these words.

Elder Mi Yuan vanished in a flash.

At the same moment.

A voice transmission entered Feng Zhantian's mind: "Little friend of the Celestial Phoenix Race, this is the fault of our Ouyang Family, please spare the grandson of our Patriarch, the Ouyang Family will surely reward you."

Upon hearing this.

Feng Zhantian sneered, "I see, they didn't care about their grandson's life at all, using tactics to advance by retreating, now they're pleading with me to release him."

Kuang Yunshan sneered, "In front of Elder Mi Yuan, naturally, the Ouyang Family doesn't dare to act rashly, otherwise, the Ouyang Family would be done for."

Ouyang Shan begged for mercy, panic-stricken once again, "Please spare my life, if you kill me, my grandfather won't let you go, and when the Ouyang Family seeks revenge, it won't benefit you either."

With a sharp gaze sweeping over Ouyang Shan, Emperor Jiang coldly said, "The Ouyang Family suffered a great loss this time, even if we don't kill him, they likely won't let it go."

"So, just go to hell."

With those words.

Emperor Jiang summoned the Immortal Sword and, without hesitation, thrust it out.

"No! Don't kill me!" Ouyang Shan screamed in terror and despair.

"Slit!"

The Immortal Sword mercilessly pierced Ouyang Shan's heart, blood gushing out, and the Primordial Spirit shattered instantly.

Ouyang Shan's eyes widened in terror, unable to believe Emperor Jiang truly dared to kill him.

Do they really not fear the Ouyang Family's revenge?

Emperor Jiang extracted the Immortal Sword, flicking the blood off the blade, and sneered, "Rest in peace."

"I... I won't rest even in death..." Ouyang Shan fell, his voice trailing off as his breath vanished.

The Ice Phoenix softly said, "Let's go, let's return and save the Master!"

Meanwhile.

The Ouyang Patriarch and several Elders were hovering above a mountain peak, not far away.

The Ouyang Patriarch held a floating Soul Jade Token.

This was Ouyang Shan's Soul Jade Token.

An Elder frowned and asked, "Patriarch, the Celestial Phoenix Race's power is terrifying, I fear they won't spare the Young Master."

The Ouyang Patriarch glared viciously at the Jade Token, cold and sinister, "The Ouyang Family has only one grandson, I've already pleaded humbly, if they dare kill Shan'er, even with the Star Ancient Sect's support, the Ouyang Family won't let them go!"

However.

As the words left the Ouyang Patriarch's mouth.

The Jade Token suspended in his palm suddenly exploded.

The faces of the Ouyang Patriarch and several Elders changed dramatically.

"Shan'er!" The Ouyang Patriarch erupted in wrath, a storm of fury and killing intent surged, his old face twisted in a feral snarl, "Shan'er is dead! How dare they kill Shan'er!"

"They actually killed the Young Master!"

"Unbelievable! They're simply disregarding our Ouyang Family!"

"Patriarch! This can't end like this! We must avenge the Young Master!"

The Elders were shocked and furious.

"Buzz buzz!"

The Ouyang Patriarch was in extreme grief and anger, the terrifying power of the Immortal Venerable Realm uncontrollably burst forth.

"You dare kill my grandson! I, the Patriarch, will make you pay with blood!" The Ouyang Patriarch roared to the heavens, his eyes bloodshot, and his killing intent surged like a storm.

...

Star Ancient Sect.

Upon returning to the sect, Mi Yuan immediately headed to the main hall.

At this very moment.

In the main hall.

The Sect Leader, Guardians, and other Elders had already gathered upon hearing the news.

Just as Mi Yuan flashed into the hall.

The Star Sect Leader asked from the main seat, "Elder, what is so urgent?"

"A tremendously great news!" Mi Yuan said in extreme excitement, "Sect Leader! The Ancestor has returned! The Ninth Reincarnation of the Ancestor has returned!"

In a heartbeat.

The Star Sect Leader shot up, shock and incredulity filling his face, "What did you say? The Ancestor has returned? Is this true?"

"The Ancestor has returned?" The Guardians and Elders were equally astonished.

"Absolutely true!" Mi Yuan exclaimed excitedly, "Although I have not personally seen the Ancestor, I saw someone with the Celestial Emperor's Blood, one of the Ancestor's people, and also the Ancestor's disciple!"

Mi Yuan then recounted the earlier events.

After hearing it all.

The faces of the Star Sect Leader, Elders, and Guardians brimmed with ecstasy but were also filled with deep anger.

Ecstasy because Gu Chenfeng had returned.

Anger because of the betrayal by Xu Wu and the alliance of several forces against Gu Chenfeng, leading to Gu Chenfeng being severely injured and his soul falling into a coma.

The Star Sect Leader said, extremely excitedly, "Ten thousand years! A full ten thousand years! Finally, we've awaited the Ancestor's reincarnated return!"

The Guardians beside him trembled with excitement and said, "The Ancestor's return is an immense blessing for our Star Ancient Sect!"

An Elder, his face alight with excitement, said, "Indeed, Sect Leader, the Ancestor's return will surely restore our sect's former glory!"

"Alright, I won't say more now, I must catch up at once, the Ancestor is gravely injured, his soul in slumber, I can't stand idly by!" Mi Yuan said eagerly and excitedly, quickly exiting the hall.

After Mi Yuan left.

The Star Sect Leader immediately ordered, "Send out the message! Inform the Star Ancient Sect's disciples, the Ancestor of the Star Ancient Sect has returned!"

...

Myriad Ancient Immortal Mansion.

After three hours of traveling, the Ice Phoenix and the other two finally returned to the Immortal Realm's Myriad Ancient Immortal Mansion.

Emperor Jiang joyfully shouted, "We're back!"

The Ice Phoenix willed the Reincarnation Immortal Soul Grass to appear in his palm.

Pure and vast soul power spread from the Reincarnation Immortal Soul Grass.

Within the Immortal Mansion.

Upon sensing the pure and vast soul power.

Xuan Qingyang was suddenly shocked, then overjoyed, "Such pure and vast soul power! Excellent! The Ice Phoenix and the others brought back the Immortal Grass!"

Ye Jiuchong smiled excitedly, "Let's go out and look!"

Xing Tianxiao, Lin Zhentian, and others rushed out.

Outside the main hall.

Seeing the Reincarnation Immortal Soul Grass in the Ice Phoenix's hand, they were overjoyed.

"Such pure soul power! It's my first time seeing Immortal Grass!" Lin Zhentian's voice trembled with excitement.

Xing Tianxiao stared at the Reincarnation Immortal Soul Grass and exclaimed, "Truly worthy of being Immortal Grass! This pure soul power is immense!"

As Gu Chenfeng's disciple, Xuan Qingyang was ecstatic, his eyes slightly reddened, and he said with excitement, "It's wonderful! With this Immortal Grass, Master's Soul Body can surely recover quickly!"

The Ice Phoenix recounted the process of obtaining the Immortal Grass in detail, and when mentioning the generous help from the Star Ancient Sect's Elder Mi Yuan, everyone was both surprised and grateful.

Xing Tianxiao praised, "Who would have thought the Star Ancient Sect's Elder would be so righteous!"

"Indeed, it truly saved us in our urgent need!" Lin Zhentian nodded in agreement.

The Ice Phoenix, filled with joy, gazed at the Reincarnation Immortal Soul Grass, tears of joy streaming as he said, "Master, your Soul Body will soon recover..."
