Chapter 1672 Destined Enemy (2)
Zhan Huan looked at Ling Zemin and said with a smile. "How lucky. He literally walked into you before you could even execute your plan."
Ling Zemin frowned and asked. "Who is with him?"
"It's the Moon Princess." Ling Chao replied.
"Yue Chuntao?" Zhan Huan was surprised. "Well. It's not surprising, considering the past relationship between the Red Moon Princess and the Beyond Heaven King."
Ling Zemin thought for a moment and said. "Be prepared to escape at any moment."
Zhan Huan smiled playfully. "Didn't you say you could defeat him a while ago?"
Ling Zemin ignored Zhan Huan's teasing and said to Ling Chao. "Spread the news about him as fast as possible."
"It has already started." Ling Chao responded.
Ling Zemin nodded and lowered his head, pondering his plan. The reason he had to be cautious was Yun Yi's existence.
Since Yun Yi had been exposed to the world previously, many factions immediately gave up on targeting Yun Lintian. They couldn't afford to oppose him. That left only the top factions, such as the Heavenly Desolate God Realm, and those who held grudges against the Beyond Heaven King in the past.
This was why Yun Lintian didn't encounter anyone during his journey to the Neverending Burning Hell.
Zhan Huan's eyes flickered slightly as if he had something on his mind.

"We can rest here for a while." Yun Lintian looked at Yue Chuntao, who was sweating profusely and made a decision. As they dived deeper, the heat became so intense that even Yue Chuntao started to sweat.
Cang Shang was not an exception. His skin turned red from the intense heat.
Qingqing and Linlin were the same. They were drenched in sweat and appeared utterly exhausted.
Meanwhile, Yun Lintian and Nantian Fengyu had no problems. They could reach the Golden Crow God Temple in one go if they wanted.
Yun Lintian quickly set up an isolation barrier and released a cool breeze to alleviate the heat.
He conjured two ice tubs and placed Qingqing and Linlin inside them.
"Can I go back, Big Brother Yun?" Qingqing said with a pitiful expression. She didn't want to stay here anymore.
Yun Lintian used his power to alleviate the conditions of Qingqing and Linlin and said. "Bear with it for a while. Big brother will give you a big meal later."
Once Qingqing returned to the Land of Beyond Heaven, he would not be able to open the gate by himself.
Qingqing pouted and huddled herself in the ice tub.
Master Bai jumped out of Yun Lintian's head and landed on the edge of the ice tub. He looked at Cang Shang and asked. "How long have you been staying here?"
"Around two thousand years." Cang Shang replied as he wiped himself with a cold energy.
"When did it happen?" Master Bai asked further.
Cang Shang furrowed his brow as he replied. "It has become increasingly hot in the past sixty years. However, it has accelerated several times in the past decade."
Master Bai went silent for a moment and said. "So, that's how it is."
"What is it?" Nantian Fengyu asked curiously.
"That old woman definitely knew everything and chose to wake up this time. It must be his arrangement again." Master Bai said with a serious expression. "I'm really curious about how he calculated all of this. Even Senior Yue couldn't have predicted this far, right?"
While Cang Shang was puzzled, Yun Lintian and the others immediately understood. In short, the Golden Crow God must know the specific time of Yun Lintian's appearance, and it was likely that this information was given to her by the Beyond Heaven King.
The increase in temperature in this place was undoubtedly linked to the awakening of the Golden Crow God's blood origin.
Yun Lintian was also eager to know how the Beyond Heaven King had arranged everything so precisely. It was as if he had ridden a time machine to look at the future with his own eyes and plan everything out perfectly.
He looked into the relics in his body, but none of them could grant him the ability to glimpse into the future. How exactly did he do it?
Although curious, Cang Shang knew it was inappropriate to ask. He took a deep look at Yun Lintian and wondered about his background. What surprised him the most was how comfortable Yun Lintian could be in this scorching environment despite his low strength.
Cang Shang had never left this place for over two thousand years, so he naturally had no idea about the outside world. There was no way for him to correctly guess Yun Lintian's identity.
"Senior, how is your relationship with her?" Yue Chuntao suddenly asked.
"Our relationship?" Master Bai raised his head to look at the wall of lava in the distance. His mind slowly drifted into past memories buried deep in his heart.
"There isn't much to say. We have known each other for a very long time." Master Bai spoke calmly.
Yue Chuntao could sense a hint of sadness and reluctance in Master Bai's voice. Without a doubt, his relationship with the Golden Crown God must be very close.
At the same time, Yue Chuntao thought of the heroic deeds that Master Bai had done in the past.
During the war with the Primordial God Tribe, the entire Divine Realm was engulfed in chaos, and death was rampant. Especially commoners whose lives were worthless like grass. Millions were being killed daily, and no one had time to care about their plight.
However, Master Bai didn't hesitate to send his people out and bring hundreds of millions of people from around the Divine Realm to his realm. He also didn't hesitate to sacrifice the White Owl God Realm's God Emperor artifact in order to create an absolute barrier to protect them.
Master Bai could have used this artifact to save his own life in a critical moment, but instead, he chose to use it on unrelated people. His heroic actions were deemed useless by many, but also earned respect from many people.
Even in the final moments of his life, Master Bai still utilized everything he had to safeguard these people, allowing them to live in tranquility until their last day.
Yue Chuntao admired Master Bai greatly when she read about him and his actions.
Everyone fell silent for a long while until Master Bai spoke. "Let's get moving."
Yun Lintian and the others had rested enough and were ready to continue moving.
Yun Lintian's group continued to move through different pocket spaces until they reached the deepest part of the Neverending Burning Hell.
When Yun Lintian stepped into the vast space in front of him, he immediately recognized a familiar face.
"You arrived here faster than I expected." Ling Zemin stared coldly at Yun Lintian...
