29: Entering the ruins, Emperor Yin Yao?

A beautiful and peerless face was thus exposed before Meng Yun.

Meng Yun and Miss Jing exchanged glances, but he remained expressionless.

Are you kidding me? Her face is far worse than Wu Yinyao's, alright?

In Meng Yun's heart, the only person who could surpass Wu Yinyao's beauty was Wu Yinyao herself in the next simulation.

But unfortunately, he would never have the chance to see her in a simulation again.

Nangong Jing couldn't help but feel a moment of doubt.

This man was actually unmoved by her beauty?

Was he feigning indifference, or was he truly unconcerned?

However, this thought merely flashed through her mind.

What truly piqued her curiosity was the Nascent Soul Realm aura Meng Yun had just emitted!

With a 0-frame start, Nangong Jing lightly raised her delicate hand, and her soft, boneless small hand, without a word, struck towards Meng Yun.

Meng Yun: ?

Seriously, are you even human?

Didn't I just arrive a little late?

In a hurry, Meng Yun urgently mobilized his spiritual energy, raised his hand, and unleashed a palm strike, pressing it firmly against the young woman's small hand.

An invisible ripple spread out, and everyone present, except for Zhou Yinhe, was pushed ten steps back by the shockwave.

Nangong Jing's face turned pale; the force from her palm was difficult to resist, and she was directly sent flying backward.

Meng Yun: ...

I thought you were strong.

Turns out you're just a show-off who's all talk and no substance.

"Miss Jing, Miss Jing!"

"How dare you offend Miss Jing! If Eastern Abyss finds out, you're dead, kid!"

A group of lackeys rushed in panic towards Nangong Jing's fallen figure.

Meng Yun looked at Zhou Yinhe, utterly speechless.

Director, you have to stand up for me, Director!

Zhou Yinhe seemed to read Meng Yun's thoughts and, with a slight look of helplessness, chuckled, "This Miss Nangong Jing is also a Nascent Soul Realm expert, and a guide I specifically invited to help explore the ruins. For something like this to happen, I also..."

Zhou Yinhe gave a wry smile.

They were both in the Nascent Soul Realm, and when one of them suddenly attacked, he himself couldn't stop it in time.

He could only take half the blame for this.

"Then, that Lord Abyss who supposedly won't spare me..."

"Oh, his name is Eastern Abyss. He's a great God Art Master in the Combination Realm and also of the Arcane system."

Above Nascent Soul Realm is Soul Transformation, and only above Soul Transformation is Combination Realm!

The Arcane system, on the other hand, is a transcendent system that tempers human intellect and mobilizes the power of heaven and earth elements.

Based on realm divisions, it can be roughly divided into Arcane Apprentice, Arcanist, Arcane Master, Arcane Envoy, and God Art Master.

If compared to the cultivation system, a God Art Master is equivalent to the Soul Transformation Realm!

With both systems progressing in parallel and reaching such heights, Eastern Abyss can certainly be considered powerful!

"Um, I suddenly remembered I have something to do; I left the gas on at home, so I'm leaving now." Meng Yun turned to leave, planning to use the Simulator to continue improving his strength.

Until he reached the Combination Realm, he wouldn't come out of seclusion!

Who did he provoke to suddenly gain a Combination Realm enemy?

"Stop right there," Nangong Jing's clear, cold voice suddenly sounded behind Meng Yun.

"I'm leaving. What can you do to me?"

Meng Yun had already confirmed that the other party was weaker than him, so why would he be afraid of her?

"If you dare to leave here, I'll tell Eastern Abyss," Nangong Jing directly threatened.

"Damn it."

Meng Yun muttered under his breath, already having drawn a big X over this woman in his mind.

She's good-looking, but unfortunately, she has a black heart!

Meng Yun reluctantly turned back and said to Nangong Jing, "You're not that vengeful, are you? You were the one who attacked first."

Nangong Jing merely shook her head, "I'm sorry, I've been asleep for a long time and don't know how to act like a person."

Meng Yun looked at her clean, clear eyes and was momentarily stunned.

?

Someone would belittle herself like that?

But through her expression, Meng Yun could almost certainly confirm that what Nangong Jing said came from the bottom of her heart and was absolutely not a lie.

Interesting.

Zhou Yinhe then spoke, "To be frank, Nangong Jing is a young woman we brought out of the ruins when we excavated the Tianjian Dynasty. According to her, she is the last princess of the Tianjian Dynasty."

Last princess?

Why is it another last princess?

Wu Yinyao's face instantly flashed in Meng Yun's mind.

However, it was clear that this last princess, Nangong Jing, did not seem to have Wu Yinyao's good fortune, with Meng Yun as her cheat, clearing three runs directly.

The Tianjian Dynasty had already fallen.

"The ruins can still yield living people?" Meng Yun shook his head in surprise.

"That's nothing strange," Zhou Yinhe explained. "The higher the combat power level of a world, the stronger the abilities of immortality and time-space travel. Miss Nangong is not the only visitor from outside space-time we've encountered."

"Oh," Meng Yun nodded, indicating understanding. "Coincidentally, I also have a question for Miss Nangong Jing."

Meng Yun looked at Nangong Jing, "Do you know the origins of the Linglong Empress?"

Indeed, Meng Yun was still bothered by the repeated name 'Linglong'.

A hint of confusion crossed Nangong Jing's beautiful face: "I apologize, I've lost a lot of my memories.

However, I recall that the Linglong Empress should be a being above the Mahayana stage. Rumor has it that she was incomparably beautiful and was once one of the Four Great Emperors under the Heavenly Emperor.

Her real name, it seems, was Bai, Bai Linglong?"

Meng Yun was startled.

Bai Linglong, now the name was even more like the little fox he had raised!

Seeing Nangong Jing's bewildered expression, Meng Yun knew he wouldn't get anything more by asking, so he gave up.

"Since we've fought, we're friends now," Nangong Jing said earnestly.

Meng Yun: "Where did you learn that?"

"You people from Blue Star often say, 'no fight, no acquaintance'…"

Meng Yun rubbed his forehead, speechless: "Then, when you said you'd tell Eastern Abyss, you weren't also trying to make me fight him and then become friends, were you?"

"That's right."

When people are utterly speechless, they sometimes let out a laugh.

"Heh heh."

After this interlude, Meng Yun had gotten to know Nangong Jing, the last survivor of the Tianjian Dynasty.

With Zhou Yinhe's command, the group of six stepped directly into the Truth Gate.

...

The ninth-ranked great world in the Three Thousand Worlds—White Tiger Heaven.

Wu Yinyao, in a fiery red palace robe, sat quietly in Meng Yun Pavilion.

Meng Yun Pavilion was the highest building in the Heavenly Emperor's palace and the place where Wu Yinyao, the Empress of White Tiger Heaven, most frequently appeared.

She quietly looked down, her vermillion lips parting, and spoke in a detached tone: "Linglong, I hear your sphere of influence has shrunk again?"

Linglong, who had already taken human form, looked up with her stunningly beautiful face, her expression like frost:

"These bastards from Xuanwu Heaven are bullying us too much! They've captured almost all the living beings from an entire Tianjian Dynasty!"

Wu Yinyao listened quietly to Linglong's words, then slowly spoke: "The Demon Seed has gained significant power in Xuanwu Heaven, and Xuanwu Heaven's military strength is severely insufficient. Coming to White Tiger Heaven to capture people, they've certainly played their cards well."

"Then, should we fight back?"

"No, the Demon Seed, everyone must eradicate it..." Wu Yinyao, who had cultivated for ten thousand years, only when mentioning the Demon Seed, did a surge of emotion appear deep within her otherwise calm eyes.

She would never forget.

Meng Yun, her eternal husband.

To save her, he perished with the Demon Seed.

The Demon Seed must die!

Linglong also seemed to be stirred by memories; her face showed sadness, and her expression became resolute.

"Xuanwu Heaven's debt will be settled later. The immediate priority is to clear out the Demon Seed."

Wu Yinyao issued her command: "Pass on my decree: Emperor Luo Mian will be the vanguard, and he will mobilize troops with me. We will set out for Xuanwu Heaven in three days!"

"What about me? What about me?" Linglong's face showed anticipation; she also intensely detested the Demon Seed!

"You will remain in White Tiger Heaven. When I am not here, you are me!"

Linglong couldn't smile.

At this moment, she did not yet know that while she was guarding White Tiger Heaven alone, a person she had yearned for for ten thousand years was about to make a grand appearance.
