367: Chapter 367 First Arrival in the Ten Dynasties' Divine Realm, the Dust Emperor's Divine Realm

"He was here just now, but not anymore?"

Su Xiyue's brain stalled slightly; she felt that what the Third Ancestor said was somewhat incomprehensible.

"To put it simply, Xuan Zhixue's clansman, that mighty figure from the Angel Clan, used some unknown method to come to our Zhangming Emperor Realm."

"He wanted to take Xuan Zhixue back to the Ten Dynasties Divine Realm, but she refused. Later, it was only because of Lin Ran's persuasion that she agreed to return."

"And the reason Lin Ran persuaded her to go back was so he could follow them to the Ten Dynasties Divine Realm."

"In other words, Lin Ran might already be on his way to the Ten Dynasties Divine Realm right now."

After hearing the Third Ancestor's explanation, the heavy stones hanging in the hearts of Su Xiyue and Meng Qing suddenly crumbled and collapsed.

However, while they felt fortunate, they still felt quite infuriated.

That damn Lin Ran had made them worry for nothing for so long, yet he himself had gone to the Ten Dynasties Divine Realm without saying a word. Wasn't he intentionally bullying them, making them live in constant fear every day?!

When Lin Ran returned, she would definitely teach him a good lesson!!

"Sister Su, regardless, as long as Husband is fine, that's all that matters."

Meng Qing comforted her softly.

Heaven only knew how lost and devastated she had felt the moment she learned Lin Ran had died by self-detonation.

She even thought her world was about to collapse and be filled with darkness.

Fortunately, it was all just a short nightmare; fortunately, Lin Ran wasn't dead.

"Xiyue, Lin Ran went to the Ten Dynasties Divine Realm alone for the purpose of finding a way to deal with Heavenly God Mountain."

"With his talent, no matter where he goes, he will be the most dazzling Genius. I imagine there will be plenty of forces in the Ten Dynasties Divine Realm willing to recruit him."

"Perhaps Lin Ran's decision to go to the Ten Dynasties Divine Realm truly is the right one."

The Third Ancestor also spoke up.

Su Xiyue furrowed her willow-like brows and nodded gently.

"Mm, since this damn Rebellious Disciple isn't dead, I need to return to the White Jade Capital first to pass this news to Senior Sister."

"Besides, there are some accounts I need to settle with the Heavenly Dao of the White Jade Capital!"

Hearing these words, Meng Qing's face also suddenly turned cold. Her entire being seemed to transform into a block of eternal frost, making those around her feel as if they were in an ice cellar.

This cold even stung Long Ling awake, who was sleeping nestled in Su Xiyue's sleeve.

She poked out her small head, her round eyes darting around cutely with a look of total confusion.

She had been in a deep sleep, undergoing a transformation toward becoming a Chi Saint, so she naturally didn't know what had happened.

If she were to find out that the Heavenly Dao of the White Jade Capital had plotted to make Lin Ran die by self-detonation, she would likely go berserk on the spot and fall into the Demonic Path!

Of course, that possibility was almost non-existent.

Simply because...

She was an idiot dragon who couldn't understand speech.

Unless Lin Ran personally died before her eyes, she would most likely never know about his self-detonation and death.

...

Ten Dynasties Divine Realm, Chuyuan Divine Realm.

The base of the Angel Clan was located in this God Realm.

Using an ancient talisman, Xuan Changle brought Xuan Zhixue and Lin Ran back to the Chuyuan Divine Realm.

[Ding! Congratulations to the Host for successfully completing the Heavenly Mandate Mission!]

[Rewards: 90,000 destiny points, sword-feeding treasure box!]

Hearing the System's prompt in his ear, Lin Ran couldn't help but roll his eyes.

The Qing Dynasty is long gone, and only now do you start holding court?!

How long has it been since he killed Nangong Wentian? The System is only giving him the reward now. How many 'two-and-a-half minutes' late is this?!

"This is the Chuyuan Divine Realm. Our Angel Clan lives in this realm."

"As for that Heavenly God Mountain that caused a catastrophe in your world, it is a force from the Tiandu Demon Realm."

"If you want to go from the Chuyuan Divine Realm to the Tiandu Demon Realm, you need to pass through the Xuyuan Divine Realm and the chendi Divine Realm."

"Lin Ran, this is all I can tell you. You're on your own now."

After saying that, Xuan Changle turned to leave with Xuan Zhixue.

Xuan Zhixue signaled for Xuan Changle to wait a moment, then she threw herself into Lin Ran's arms, stood on her tiptoes, and kissed him.

Her kiss was like a trickling stream—gentle yet continuous, filled with tenderness and reluctance.

Lin Ran held her tightly and deepened the kiss.

"Husband, you... must, must remember to come find me!"

Xuan Zhixue cupped Lin Ran's face with her hands, her gaze full of lingering affection.

"Mm."

Lin Ran looked at Zhixue dotingly and nodded with a smile.

"Zhixue, it's time for us to go. Don't let your clansmen keep worrying."

Xuan Changle gave a reminder, and only then did Xuan Zhixue reluctantly let go of Lin Ran and follow him away.

As she walked away, she looked back and saw that Lin Ran was still standing there, seeing her off.

Her nose felt sore, and she shouted with a choked voice, "Lin Ran, regarding the destruction of Heavenly God Mountain, you must consider everything carefully. Remember not to be too reckless!"

"If there is a chance, I will try to persuade the clan to let our people help you!"

A smile slowly curled on Lin Ran's lips as he chuckled, "Zhixue, remember to take care of yourself."

With that, his figure vanished in an instant.

He didn't count on the Angel Clan to help him. After all, Xuan Changle had made it very clear that there seemed to be a colossus standing behind Heavenly God Mountain that the Angel Clan couldn't afford to offend.

However, he didn't lose confidence because of this.

He didn't believe that in this vast Ten Dynasties Divine Realm, he wouldn't be able to find a force capable of contending with Heavenly God Mountain!

At worst, he would seek out opportunities, increase his cultivation, and then find the right moment to annihilate Heavenly God Mountain with the speed of a lightning strike!

"For now, I'll head to the chendi Divine Realm first."

Lin Ran planned secretly in his heart.

He was currently in the Chuyuan Divine Realm. To reach the Tiandu Demon Realm, he needed to pass through the Xuyuan Divine Realm and the chendi Divine Realm.

Since the chendi Divine Realm bordered the Tiandu Demon Realm, he planned to temper himself in the chendi Divine Realm first.

That way, if Heavenly God Mountain made any moves, he could learn of them faster from the chendi Divine Realm.

The Ten Dynasties Divine Realm was huge—so huge it was almost despair-inducing.

Even though Lin Ran's cultivation had reached the Divine Fire Realm Ninth Heaven, and even though his true combat power was comparable to a Heavenly Palace Realm Expert,

it still took him several months to travel from the Chuyuan Divine Realm to the Xuyuan Divine Realm.

He didn't stay long in the Xuyuan Divine Realm, instead rushing toward the chendi Divine Realm without pause.

All in all, nearly a year had passed.

"Is this the chendi Divine Realm? It's said that the Immortal Divine Dynasty of this God Realm is called the Chenxin Divine Dynasty."

"The ruler of this Divine Dynasty is a renowned Empress."

Lin Ran walked slowly through a desolate land of yellow sand, thinking to himself.

Since he had chosen to temper himself, he naturally had to do so properly within an Immortal Divine Dynasty.

He wanted to see just how powerful the young Prodigies of this Immortal Divine Dynasty truly were!
