With the words of his lover, Xue Renxue didn’t hesitate to kill the three men from the Du Clan. With the frost of their bodies suddenly spreading further to cover their heads, Xue Renxue didn’t hesitate to break the frozen figures of three men. The couple, Tan Bingyu and Xue Renxue were calm even after this scene. The commotion after they killed the disciple from the Du Clan had caught the attention of the other members of the Du Clan. However, the couple still did not care about them and left with the old man and the little girl. When they had reached the edge of the town, Tan Bingyu and Xue Renxue, had let the old man and the little girl go.

Xue Renxue said, "Old man, this place should be safe. But just in case you should leave the town. Those people will not stop to hunt people."

Tan Bingyu gave the old man and his granddaughter a flying artifact which seems to be ordinary as it was something provided by the Hidden Tang Sect, but it had stealth features as it flew.

She said, "Please use this. Leave the town as soon as possible. This ship had a stealth mode so you could fly away without being seen."

"But Big Sister, what about you two?" The little girl asked.

Tan Bingyu smiled and said, "Don’t worry. We will be alright."

After seeing the flying ship turn invisible mode as it flew away, Tan Bingyu and Xue Renxue noticed the hidden small courtyard not far from them. There is a hidden formation that shielded the place which is similar to the other formation their mistress used before in her other residences and immediately realized that this is the place they are looking for. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

Xue Renxue said, "This must be the place. This similar formation hides the location, prevents intrusion and blocks noise. This is definitely the Mistress’s place."

Tan Bingyu believed as well and pulled the token of the Moon Goddess hanging on her waist. As the jade token touched the invisible wall, it glowed for a moment and a door appeared before their eyes. The couple entered inside without hesitation. After entering the door it disappeared as if it never appeared in the first place. By the time the door had disappeared, a few people from the Du Clan appeared. They seem to be chasing them discreetly under Du Yaoyi’s orders.

"They’ve suddenly disappeared in this location."

"Have you seen that door that suddenly appeared? There must be some kind of formation in this place. Let’s go. We need to report to the clan master."

Two human figures disappeared in the shadows like how they had appeared just now.

Meanwhile at the flying ship that left the town.

The supposed injured old man and his granddaughter suddenly lost their ordinary people’s aura and a sudden aura of elegance appeared on them. The wounds on their bodies faded with their qi running all over their bodies and the coarse robe on them had changed into that of luxurious ancient robes with black clouds patterns.

The little lady who had swollen eyes from crying had also disappeared, replaced with a sexy mature lady lying languidly on the sofa chair of the flying ship. On the bed, an old cultivator with the aura of a Quasi-emperor was meditating.

"Shizun (Master), those two mixed breed ice phoenixes are not bad. Aren’t we here to find you a few new disciples?" The seductive lady in red ancient robes with black cloud patterned asked.

The old man on the bed wearing, white-red robes opened his eyes and said, "No need to hurry. We can save them once the Du Clan had besieged them. Moreover this flying ship, they might be connected to the Hidden Tang Sect but didn’t have much connection to them or else why would they give away such a ship."

"They seem too confident that the Du Clan cannot harm them. What if they had some other backer?" The lady in red asked.

The old cultivator answers, "We will see when that time comes."

On the other hand, after the couple, Xue Renxue and Tan Bingyu entered the formation the hidden small courtyard had appeared before them with the gates open for them to enter. Once they had used the jade token of the Moon Goddess the whole place had regarded them as one of the owners. They can freely come in and come out as long as their jade token is with them.

Tan Bingyu and Xue Renxue entered the courtyard and walked towards the small mansion intending to find their mistress only to feel a familiar aura coming from the backyard. They actually felt their mistress’s aura to that location and followed it where they met with the scene of the Immortal Sun Emperor and the Thunder King protecting a light purple cocoon emitting the aura of the Moon Goddess.

The Thunder King looked over the pair and felt that the aura from them seemed a bit familiar but he couldn’t remember where he had felt it before and fell in his thoughts. On the other hand, the Immortal Sun Emperor immediately recognizes them.

"You guys are here. Xue’er can’t hear your report for now. I listen to it," The Immortal Sun Emperor said.

Even though the couple didn’t expect the Immortal Sun Emperor to be here, they still greeted him.

"Xue Renxue, Tan Bingyu, greets Lord Shen!"

"Stand up. This is Xue’er’s Uncle, the Thunder King, Lei Yuye," said Shen Jueyang.

Tan Bingyu suddenly recalled what her father told him the last time his soul was taken away by the people from the Soul Hall.

"Senior, are you the Thunder King who saved and protected my father one time?" Tan Bingyu asked.

The thunder king finally recalled that brat who was so fearless yet bird brain for wasting the Moon Blessing of his niece.

"You are that bird brain Shenyu’s daughter?" Lei Yuye exclaimed.

The Immortal Sun Emperor, Tan Bingyu and Xue Renxue were stunned for a moment when they heard the words of the Thunder King. They never expected that Tan Shenyu would be called Bird brain by Lei Yuye, his savior.

Xue Renxue murmured, "Bird brain? Pfft~"

Tan Bingyu as the daughter and Shen Jueyang as the master of Tan Shenyu recalled what kind of person their father and disciple were. How careless the man with his mouth and how he makes a move without thinking first. Just thinking of these facts, they could hardly deny what the Thunder King had just said.

The Thunder King approached the daughter of that silly man and realized that this daughter seems to be smarter and much more clear headed than the man itself.

Lei Yuye asked in confusion, "Are you truly that silly man’s daughter?"

Hahaha~

This time Xue Renxue no longer held back his laughter and laughed out loud. Even the Immortal Sun Emperor failed to control the curling of his lips which he hid behind a fake cough. Tan Bingyu, a bit dazed, nods her head without thinking much.

Lei Yuye said, "So that brat is still alive. Where is he? Why didn’t he come with you?"

Tan Bingyu told the Thunder King about the Du Clan and the involvement of the Fairy race and how they wanted to take over the Hidden Tang Sect. The moment the fairy race was mentioned a frown appeared on the faces of the immortal Sun Emperor and the Thunder King.

The latter was especially enraged after all, he knew what his little grandnephew had experienced when the Death Valley had captured him. Though they didn’t directly torture the young prince, starving him and placing him isolated in a cage was something unforgivable. How old was Yue Zhiya at that time and for how long had he suffered in that cage? Moreover, everything is the fault of the Fairy Race, how they allied themselves with a demonic sect just because of the cure the Moon Goddess had placed in their whole race.

"The fairy race again! If not because of the protection of the Immortal Star Empire, our clan would have exterminated them now and there!" The Thunder King said.

The Immortal Sun Emperor said, "It’s not that he is protecting her because he wanted to. When his mother was taken as a hostage by those from beyond he had signed a contract that connects her life with his. Even though her injuries had nothing to do with him, when her life was in danger, he had the responsibility to kill her. Unless the soul contract is broken, killing the Fairy Queen is equal to making the Immortal Star Emperor move."

"Isn’t it better to kill her with the Star Emperor? They are both enemies," asked the Thunder King.

The Immortal Sun Emperor said, "Not possible at the moment. Right now we need as many living emperors as most great emperor cultivators have entered eternal slumber. They cannot be counted as power of the cosmos."

"Wait. Why do you know about this? This is a secret only those who were invited to come to the Cosmos Battlefield know," said Lei Yuye.

The criteria for being invited to the Cosmos Battlefield is not only because of their cultivation realm, there are also some God Kings with high talents invited to attend that place from time to time.

The Immortal Sun Emperor said, "I had been invited to it before and come back alive."
