Yun Lintian glanced at her and didn't reply. He was thinking about how to get information about Ning Yue's background further. Perhaps he needed to find other Dark Sea Palace members.
Yue Chuntao wasn't angry at his silence. She said further. "The first generation Sword God, Fleeting Cloud God Emperor Jian Yun, was the most terrifying sword practitioner in the Divine Realm's history. He possessed eight sharp swords, but the sharpest among them was the Heaven Piercing Sword."
"When he disappeared, all of his swords went missing as well. Many people have been looking for them throughout the years. I didn't expect it to be in your hand… What about the other seven swords?"
Hearing this, Yun Lintian frowned slightly. He only knew that the person who taught him the Heaven Piercing Sword Art was known as the Feeling Cloud Sword Emperor, and there was only one sword. From Yue Chuntao's words, this person was actually regarded as a Sword God?
Wait a minute… Seven swords? Yun Lintian suddenly thought of those seven swords he found in the Seven Swords Tomb back to the Azure World. Could they be the Sword God's swords?
However, why didn't he feel anything about it? Maybe it was because he hadn't yet fully comprehended the Heaven Piercing Sword Art?
Seeing Yun Lintian's subtle expression, Yue Chuntao said. "So you know where are the other seven swords. You possess four divine beast's bloodlines and the Sword God's legendary swords… Your identity is truly something."
In fact, Yue Chuntao was skeptical about Yun Lintian being the Beyond Heaven King's successor. Coupled with the White Tiger God's earlier roar, she was now certain it was him.
Yun Lintian put the sword away and threw the fireballs at the four corpses.
"Sword God Jian Yun was known to be one of his closest friends. They went missing at the same time." Yue Chuntao said further. The "him" in her word was undoubtedly referred to the Beyond Heaven King.
"Miss, we should leave first." Yue Qi interrupted. This wasn't a good place to talk about this.
"Follow me." Yun Lintian looked at them and said.
Immediately, everyone left the city and went straight to Heavenhold Peak.
After Yun Lintian's group left, a black-robed figure appeared on the second floor, looking at the battle trace thoughtfully. He then went to the first floor and interrogated the receptionist.
After learning all he needed, the black-robed man looked at the Heavenhold Sect and then left.
When the black-robed man appeared outside of the city, his expression changed drastically as the surrounding space froze out of nowhere. Just as he was about to release his power, Tian Yuhan silently appeared behind him and pierced his heart with her sword.
"You…" The black-robed man's eyes widened in disbelief. His entire body turned into an ice sculpture and shattered into countless ice particles.
Tian Yuhan retracted her sword and looked around briefly before disappearing from the place as if nothing had happened.
When Yun Lintian left the sect, she secretly sent someone to protect him. Later, she got a report about Yue Chuntao and personally came here in case Yue Chuntao had an ulterior motive against Yun Lintian.
Unexpectedly, the Dark Sea Palace's people came to look for trouble. After witnessing how Yun Lintian dealt with them, Tian Yuhan knew that someone must come here to investigate it. This allowed her to catch this person.
Yun Lintian had no idea that someone had secretly taken care of a hidden danger for him. He had returned to his small hut on Heaven Peak and invited Yue Chuntao to sit down.
"Are you not afraid that your master will scold you?" Yue Chuntao said with a smile and took a sip of tea.
"She won't." Yun Lintian said. "Do you have a way to find the other Dark Sea Palace people?"
Yue Chuntao shook her head. "Unless they show up by themselves, I don't know how to find them. You have to know that we aren't interfering with each other on weekdays. No one cares about them."
Yun Lintian frowned deeply. It seemed he encountered a dead end again.
Ning Yue tugged Yun Lintian's sleeve and said. "Thank you, brother. But you don't have to worry about me. As long as I can be with you, I don't want to know it anymore."
After seeing the Dark Sea Palace's people, she realized how dangerous the situation was. She didn't want Yun Lintian to risk his life for her anymore.
Yun Lintian patted her head gently and said. "Don't worry. I will definitely find your parents and unravel your true background after we come out of the secret land."
Seeing the determination in Yun Lintian's eyes, Ning Yue nodded obediently and said nothing further.
Yue Chuntao took a deep look at Ning Yue and said. "The thing in your body is very unique. It's full of vitality… No wonder the Dark Sea Palace wants to take you away."
"What do you mean?" Yun Lintian asked.
Yue Chuntao took a sip of tea and explained. "I heard the rumor about the Dark Sea God Emperor being suffered a severe injury from the past. It seems to be true."
Yun Lintian went silent for a moment and asked. "How strong is he?"
"The Dark Sea God Emperor is the strongest God Emperor in the Southern Divine Region. The foundation of the Dark Sea God Realm is extremely deep and solid. Even if he is suffering a serious injury right now, no one dares to attack him." Yue Chuntao said.
"Now, you've offended him. I think you should leave as soon as possible. Otherwise, you will bring a calamity to your master's realm."
"You don't have to leave." Suddenly, a cold female voice resounded, and Tian Yuhan appeared in the room. Her eyes fixated on Yue Chuntao without blinking.
Yue Chuntao seized Tian Yuhan up and down and said. "People said the current Heavenhold Realm King is highly talented. They're not wrong at all."
Usually, Yue Chuntao wouldn't praise anyone unless that person was truly exceptional. Tian Yuhan might be at the peak of the Divine Sovereign, but Yue Chuntao could see something special inside her body. It was something that Yun Lintian couldn't even notice it. Once it was awakened, she would unleash her true power.
"What's the Moon Princess' purpose in visiting my humble realm?" Tian Yuhan asked calmly.
Yue Chuntao pointed at Yun Lintian and said. "I'm here to find my husband."
Tian Yuhan looked at Yun Lintian strangely upon hearing this…
