Chapter 915: Chapter 905: What If There’s Still Hope
"The Tang Family is in imminent danger?"
Gu Chenfeng slightly furrowed his brow and asked, "What happened to the Tang Family?"
Tang Yuyan’s beautiful eyes flashed with a trace of sadness. She forced a smile and said, "Because of Luo Yutian. He is the Young Master of the Lingxiao Immortal Hall and has come to propose to me multiple times, but I have refused."
"Even when an Elder of the Lingxiao Immortal Hall personally came, I still rejected the proposal. Because of this, Luo Yutian bears hatred in his heart."
"In the past two years, the Lingxiao Immortal Hall has been suppressing our Tang Family. Although my grandfather is an Immortal Venerable, compared to the Lingxiao Immortal Hall, our Tang Family is too weak. In this world where strength reigns supreme, without enough power, it’s really difficult to take even a single step."
"The reason I want to break through to the Immortal Emperor Realm as soon as possible is to show the major forces in the Divine Realm my talent in the Battle of Geniuses, so I can join a major power. Only with the strength of the Immortal Emperor Realm can there be a chance to join a powerful force."
"Only if I can achieve this will the Lingxiao Immortal Hall not dare to act recklessly against the Tang Family, giving us a chance to survive."
"I see." Gu Chenfeng nodded.
Tang Yuyan sighed softly, smiled wryly, and said, "Man proposes, but heaven disposes. Now everything has been in vain, and it’s time to wake up from this dream. What is destined to be will be, what isn’t should not be forced."
Gu Chenfeng asked with a faint smile, "What are Fairy Tang’s plans next?"
"Go home." Tang Yuyan chuckled softly, "Gu Chenfeng, you should leave the Divine Realm quickly as well. I know you are strong, but you still cannot contend with the Thunder Immortal Sect."
Dugu Cheng wanted to say something but swallowed his words.
Gu Chenfeng hadn’t spoken, so naturally, Dugu Cheng didn’t dare to speak.
Gu Chenfeng asked with a faint smile, "Are you really going to give up like this?"
"What else can I do?" Tang Yuyan laughed openly, "It’s already good to have my life saved today. I’ve let it go. Come on, let’s leave the Divine Realm now."
Though she said this, Tang Yuyan was not reconciled in her heart, yet she was powerless.
This world, where strength rules, is indeed so cruel and heartless.
Despite Tang Yuyan’s efforts to keep smiling and act indifferent, Gu Chenfeng still saw through her unwillingness and helplessness from her slightly trembling lips and the hard-to-conceal gloom deep in her eyes.
The strong-willed her just buried these emotions deep in her heart, unwilling to easily show them to others.
Gu Chenfeng pondered slightly, then smiled, "Fairy Tang, why not try going to the Star Ancient Sect?"
Hearing the words "Star Ancient Sect," Tang Yuyan’s body trembled sharply, her eyes instantly filled with envy and admiration.
Tang Yuyan naturally knew of the Star Ancient Sect’s renowned reputation; it is undisputedly the strongest overlord in the Divine Realm, its status far surpassing the Proud Immortal Hall and the Thunder Immortal Sect, these transcendent powers.
However.
The light of envy and admiration in her eyes soon dimmed.
Tang Yuyan shook her head with a bitter smile and said, "Gu Chenfeng, what a being the Star Ancient Sect is; I can’t even get into the Proud Immortal Hall and the Thunder Immortal Sect, so how could I dare to hope for the Star Ancient Sect?"
"If it’s the Star Ancient Sect we’re talking about, I’m afraid we can’t even reach their mountain gate."
Looking at the lacking confidence Tang Yuyan, Gu Chenfeng encouraged, "Fairy Tang, how would you know the result without trying? Now that the Tang Family is in imminent danger, are you truly willing to give up the last hope just like this?"
"After all, having been rejected twice already, it wouldn’t matter to be rejected once more, what if there’s hope?"
Tang Yuyan bit her lip, her heart struggling without end.
She thought of the predicament facing the Tang Family and the immense pressure from the Lingxiao Immortal Hall, ultimately, the feeling of unwillingness prevailed.
"You’re right, after all, all face has been lost, another time won’t matter." Tang Yuyan took a deep breath and chuckled softly, "Then I’ll listen to you and try the Star Ancient Sect, whether or not I succeed in seeking a pill, I’ll accept whatever comes."
"That’s more like it." Gu Chenfeng smiled and nodded, then flew towards the Star Ancient Sect with Tang Yuyan.
Soon after, Gu Chenfeng transmitted a voice, "Mi Yuan, return and prepare, instruct the sect’s disciples not to reveal my identity."
"Yes, Ancestor!" Mi Yuan’s respectful voice came.
Along the way, Tang Yuyan grew increasingly uneasy and anxious.
She continuously imagined various possible outcomes, the more she thought, the more tense and frightened she became.
Not long after.
Gu Chenfeng, Tang Yuyan, and Dugu Cheng arrived in front of the mountain gate of the Star Ancient Sect.
The Star Ancient Sect is located in a stretch of continuous mountain range, its imposing palaces built upon floating Immortal Mountains, enveloped in a cloud, resembling an immortal realm.
On both sides of the mountain gate, gigantic stone pillars were engraved with mysterious runes, emitting a faint glow.
The surrounding trees were lush and verdant, exotic flowers and rare herbs bloomed in competition, exuding a mesmerizing fragrance.
From time to time, celestial cranes flew by, their calls sharp and clear.
In the face of the towering and magnificent, endlessly imposing Star Ancient Sect, Tang Yuyan’s legs turned weak, her apprehension reached its peak.
Below the mountain range.
The towering peaks rose into the clouds, waterfalls cascaded down with water splattering everywhere, making a deafening roar.
Many ancient buildings were scattered intricately across the mountain, exuding a mysterious and solemn aura.
This is none other than the strongest overlord in the Divine Realm—the Star Ancient Sect.
"Don’t worry, nothing will go wrong." Gu Chenfeng patted her shoulder, giving her an encouraging glance.
Tang Yuyan forced herself to suppress her anxiety, stepped forward, and respectfully said, "Immortal friends, I am Tang Yuyan, with urgent matters to meet an Elder of the Star Ancient Sect, I hope you can report this."
The two disciples guarding the mountain gate of the Star Ancient Sect became extremely respectful upon seeing Gu Chenfeng, they almost wanted to kneel to welcome him.
Mi Yuan had already informed them not to act too ostentatiously.
The two disciples smiled and said, "Please wait a moment, Fairy Tang, I will report to the Elder."
Tang Yuyan widened her eyes, hardly believing her ears.
She initially thought she would be turned away or even met with indifference, but to her surprise, the disciples of the Star Ancient Sect were so courteous.
"Is... is this real? Am I not dreaming?" Tang Yuyan stood still in shock, her heart filled with disbelief.
Gu Chenfeng chuckled, "Of course it’s real, isn’t that half the success already? At least you weren’t turned away."
Dugu Cheng thought quietly, "You’re the ancestor of the Star Ancient Sect, who dares to refuse?"
Amidst Tang Yuyan’s wild thoughts, Elder Mi Yuan suddenly flashed out in front of the mountain gate.
"Greetings, Elder," Dugu Cheng respectfully cupped his fists in greeting.
Elder Mi Yuan nodded slightly.
Seeing Elder Mi Yuan, Tang Yuyan was so shocked she turned to stone, unable to speak.
Mysterious Elder Mi Yuan was a big figure in the Star Ancient Sect, usually as hard to meet as ascending to heaven, yet now he came to greet her personally.
Seeing the panic-stricken Tang Yuyan, Elder Mi Yuan smiled gently, "Miss Tang, no need to be nervous."
Tang Yuyan suddenly came to her senses, hurriedly bowed, and greeted, "Younger Tang Yuyan greets Elder Mi Yuan."
