"This Hundred Flowers Pavilion cannot withstand the wrath of the Tai Ling Ancient Clan!"
If the previous threats were subtle, this is now blatant coercion!
The beautiful woman in palace attire opened her mouth as if to say something, but in the end, she could only shake her head and sigh.
Yun Yun remained calm. She sensed the powerful aura emanating from the old man; he was a half-step Saint-level expert!
But she acted as if nothing had happened, picked up her teacup, took a sip, and completely ignored the other person.
Nalan Yanran shrugged and said, "Since we can't get through to the senior, we'll just have to find someone else to talk to!"
The old man narrowed his eyes, understanding the implication in Nalan Yanran's words, and at the same time, he felt a little uneasy.
Should I have someone else talk to me?
It seems that the Hundred Flowers Pavilion is quite confident!
But he really couldn't figure out where this confidence came from.
"Oh? I'd like to see who it is that can make my Tai Ling Ancient Clan make concessions?" The old man stared at Nalan Yanran, his tone aggressive.
Just then, footsteps came from outside the door, followed by a clear, cold voice.
"Although the five ancient races have made contributions to the Great Thousand World, your bullying of the younger generation is truly a disgrace to Zhong Tianling..."
Upon hearing this, both the old man and the beautiful woman's expressions changed drastically, and their eyes instantly darkened.
Zhong Tianling!
That is the name of the Tai Ling Ancestor, who died fighting against the evil race from beyond the realm. Even the three giants of the Great Thousand Realms today have to respectfully call him a senior. How dare this person be so disrespectful!
The door was gently pushed open, and a stunningly beautiful figure walked in.
The three women present paled in comparison to this woman.
This is a woman in a white dress, so beautiful it seems unreal, especially her eyes, which are as bright as stars and seem to possess a magical power.
"Isn't it a bit disrespectful of you to address my clan's ancestor by his name?" The old man stared at the woman in the white dress, his expression icy.
The woman in the white dress ignored him and instead bowed gracefully to Yun Yun and Nalan Yanran.
This made Yun Yun and Nalan Yanran, who had been calm and collected, feel a little awkward, and they quickly returned the greeting.
The woman in the white dress then looked at the old man and said with a faint smile, "I never thought that little brat from back then would actually become a Dao Ancestor..."
The old man then vaguely sensed that something was wrong, and his expression became more serious.
He couldn't see through the woman in the white dress in front of him, and given her arrogant tone, she was clearly someone of extraordinary background.
Thinking of this, the old man stood up, cupped his hands in greeting, and said, "May I ask how to address this young lady?"
The woman in the white dress thought for a moment, then said, "In the vast world today, it seems that people call me... Goddess of the Luo River!"
The old man stood there dumbfounded, completely bewildered, while the beautiful woman in palace attire also gaped open.
Goddess of the Luo River?
Are you kidding me?
The former number one beauty in the Great Thousand Worlds, and the goddess Luo, who was among the top fifteen strongest in ancient times?
Even if the other party is very likely a Saint-level expert, the words they say are still hard to believe.
After all, Luo Shen had already perished, and back then she fought alone against two Heavenly Demon Emperors who were ranked eighth and ninth in strength in the outer realms, sacrificing her own life to kill one and injure the other.
This matter has spread widely throughout the world, and almost everyone knows about it.
It's unbelievable that someone who perished in ancient times would appear alive and well right in front of you!
Luo Shen naturally knew this as well. Before the other party could react, she casually asked, "Back then, I left a jar of wine in the Tai Ling Ancient Clan. Zhong Tianling didn't steal any, did he?"
The beautiful woman in palace attire looked bewildered, completely confused.
But the old man's expression changed drastically, and a layer of cold sweat even seeped out of his forehead.
Roselle Wine!
This matter has always been a secret of the Tai Ling Ancient Clan, known only to the core members and high-ranking members.
When Zhong Tianling was young, he had a connection with Luo Shen, who treated him very well, like a younger brother.
It is said that Zhong Tianling was able to achieve sainthood because he received help from the Goddess of the Luo River.
Before the outbreak of the cataclysmic war, Luo Shen left a jar of spirit wine she had brewed herself in the Tai Ling Ancient Clan and made a promise with Zhong Tianling to drink it together after the war.
But in the end, neither of them came back alive...
That jar of wine had been sealed away in the forbidden area of the Taixu Spirit Clan. In fact, the spirit wine was not a supreme treasure, but it was of extraordinary significance.
This secret has been passed down through generations among the core members of the Tailing Ancient Clan.
However, in the current Tai Ling Ancient Clan, apart from the Grand Elder, only this old man knows about this matter.
That's why he reacted so strongly when Luo Shen mentioned this matter.
Because he knew very well that neither he nor the Grand Elder could possibly leak this matter.
Seeing the woman in the white dress before him, whose beauty was almost dreamlike, he couldn't help but feel a tremor in his heart...
"Go back! The Hundred Flowers Pavilion will not join the Tai Ling Ancient Clan. Have Zhong Tianling come to see me!"
The goddess waved her hand, signaling him to leave.
The old man trembled, his belief growing stronger. He took a deep breath, cupped his hands, and said, "Senior Luo... Luo Shen, I was very rude just now!"
Luo Shen waved her hand, not paying any attention.
The old man thought for a moment, then said, "Since you have intervened, our clan will certainly not make things difficult for the Hundred Flowers Pavilion anymore, but..."
"Our ancestor died in the Sacred Abyss back then, and could not meet with his predecessor!"
Luo Shen paused, then her eyes became incredibly complicated. After a long while, she sighed and said, "I should have known. But now everything has changed, and I see no familiar faces anywhere..."
After a moment, he looked up at the old man and said softly, "In that case, you may stay here and wait for things to be over."
"Uh... what do you mean by that, senior?" The old man was somewhat bewildered.
Luo Shen said calmly, "The Tai Ling Ancient Clan used their power to intimidate others, and now that they see the situation is not good, they still want to get away unscathed?"
"If you do something wrong, you always have to bear the consequences, right?"
The old man's expression froze, his heart filled with regret.
Of the six newly emerging forces, it turns out that only the Tai Ling Ancient Clan had the worst luck, picking the Hundred Flowers Pavilion, which was backed by Luo Shen.
Now that his attempt to steal a chicken has backfired, things may not be so easy to resolve!
Fortunately, Luo Shen didn't seem to have any intention of making things difficult for them. Although they didn't understand what Luo Shen was waiting for, they could only obediently stay in the face of this peak powerhouse from ancient times.
…………
While the Tai Ling Ancient Clan found the Hundred Flowers Pavilion, the powerful members of the Fu Tu Ancient Clan also set their sights on the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion.
Just when the powerful members of the Tai Ling Ancient Clan felt unlucky, they didn't realize that it was precisely because of their relatively mild attitude that they became the luckiest party.
It was precisely because of the gentle attitude of the Tai Ling Ancient Clan that Luo Shen directly stepped forward.
Otherwise, once the backup plan left by Chu Yang is used, it means that a battle for the Saint-grade will begin!
In comparison, the powerful members of the Futu Ancient Clan met extremely tragic ends.
Since the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion is a force composed of spirit array masters, even a Celestial Supreme would find it difficult to gain an advantage on the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion's home turf.
Therefore, the Futu Ancient Clan directly dispatched the heads of its three main branches, demonstrating the great importance they placed on the matter.
It should be noted that in the Futu Ancient Clan, the status and strength of the three lineage leaders are second only to the clan's Grand Elder!
The Futu Ancient Clan has gradually declined over the years, falling to the bottom of the five ancient clans. The clan only has one Saint-level expert, the Great Elder Futu Xuan.
Besides, the heads of the three lineages are the strongest members of the clan!
Among them, Qingmaimai Shouqingchen is the best. He has the cultivation of a half-step saint, and is only one step away from the saint level.
The other two were also late-stage Immortals. With all three of them present, the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion was naturally unable to withstand them.
The attitude of the Futu Ancient Clan was also very clear: to make the Tianji Pavilion a vassal and provide it with certain resources.
Initially, the only people they met were the elders of the three lineages and some younger members who accompanied them on their training.
The Heavenly Mystery Pavilion naturally refused without hesitation, and the Ancient Buddha Clan knew that things wouldn't go so smoothly, so they simply used their power to intimidate them.
The two sides eventually broke off relations, but the Futu Ancient Clan still underestimated the strength of the Tianji Pavilion, especially on their home turf, where a group of elders from the three lineages and the younger generation fought for a long time without any results.
Finally, the three leaders of the three sects stepped forward. They thought that the three of them working together could crush the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion, but they never expected this...
Behind the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion stands a Saint-level expert!
Faced with the Saint-grade Heavenly Sovereign who seemed like a thunder god descending to earth and also resembled a powerful dragon, the three lineage leaders were ultimately no match for him and were eventually suppressed on the continent where the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion was located.
All of this was observed by various forces, and the news quickly spread throughout the entire Great Thousand World.
Moreover, the fact that the powerful members of the Tai Ling Ancient Clan entered the Hundred Flowers Pavilion but have not returned for a long time, and have not made any move, is also thought-provoking.
This is not over yet!
Something equally terrible has happened in the Endless Fire Domain!
No one expected that the Black Sky Ancient Clan, which had always lived in seclusion, would also get involved in this storm, and even send out a Saint-level expert—Black Earth!
