The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud

In fact, Cang Yun had arrived at the square even before Zou Zeyu and Tuoba Junlin.

Just as he was about to step out and investigate carefully, Zou Zeyu, Tuoba Junlin, and their respective groups arrived as well.

Given his current cultivation level, Cang Yun knew he had no chance of contending with them.

As he watched Tuoba Junlin and Zou Zeyu hesitate without making any moves, a sense of urgency began to rise within him.

He had foreseen that Su Jingzhen and his companions would be here and also predicted that the grand hall and the Yunmeng Goddess Statue must contain extraordinary fortunes.

Even if he couldn’t claim them for himself, he feared that Su Jingzhen and his group would.

“No matter what, Su Jingzhen must die this time.”

After a long period of hesitation and internal struggle, Cang Yun finally leapt down from the large tree where he had been hiding.

He had to admit, Su Jingzhen had indeed become his heart demon. As long as Su Jingzhen remained in this world, Cang Yun feared he would never be able to progress further in his cultivation.

Sometimes, a cultivator’s mental clarity is even more crucial than the resources or treasures they possess.

The moment Cang Yun revealed himself, the expressions of Zou Zeyu and Tuoba Junlin sharpened instantly.

Their auras locked onto Cang Yun in an instant.

Though neither Tuoba Junlin nor Zou Zeyu exchanged any words, there was already a silent understanding between them.

There were certain things between them that didn’t need to be spoken.

After all, they now basically all belong to the Holy City system and had already forged numerous alliances.

When it came to dealing with Su Jingzhen, the two had even more reason to cooperate.

“Brother Zou, since the two of us have arrived here today, whatever secrets or divine wonders exist at the core of the Dantai clan should naturally belong to the Evil Moon Sect and my Treasure Gathering Pavilion. What do you think, Brother Zou?”

As Cang Yun gradually approached them, Tuoba Junlin spoke these words to Zou Zeyu.

In the younger generation of Qingzhou, Tuoba Junlin and Zou Zeyu had always regarded each other with caution and as a competitor.

Although Su Jingzhen had recently gained significant attention for his prowess, neither Tuoba Junlin nor Zou Zeyu considered him a serious threat.

Even though Su Jingzhen had demonstrated his formidable combat strength in front of everyone before entering the ruins, they hadn’t been overly concerned.

They were convinced that the Dantai ruins would be Su Jingzhen’s final resting place.

However, the current situation, with the sudden and mysterious appearance of the Yunmeng Goddess Statue and the equally enigmatic grand hall behind it, made Tuoba Junlin uneasy.

Despite holding a fragment of the Dantai ruins’ layout, Tuoba Junlin had no idea what truly lay within.

Thus, cooperating with Zou Zeyu was undoubtedly the wisest choice.

Upon hearing Tuoba Junlin’s words, a gentle smile appeared on Zou Zeyu’s face.

“Brother Tuoba, it seems your thoughts align perfectly with mine,” Zou Zeyu responded, sealing their collaboration with just a few words.

Both of their gazes then shifted towards Cang Yun, who was walking towards them.

In their minds, anyone who could reach this place at this time was not an ordinary cultivator.

However, Cang Yun was unfamiliar to them.

Despite having paid some attention to the Dongxuan Academy, their focus had primarily been on Han Ning and the two Soul Formation stage experts. The younger generation of the academy hadn’t caught their interest.

“I am Cang Yun from Dongxuan Academy. Greetings, Fellow Daoists Tuoba and Zou!”

When he was just three feet away from the two people, Cang Yun took the initiative to greet them with a smile.

Hearing this, both Zou Zeyu and Tuoba Junlin showed a hint of surprise but didn’t respond immediately.

Beside them, the Second Elder of the Evil Moon Sect and Elder Qin from the Treasure Gathering Pavilion activated their divine consciousness, probing the surroundings of the square.

They didn’t sense the presence of anyone else from Dongxuan Academy.

This made the four of them even more puzzled.

Sensing their confusion, Cang Yun continued, “I came here alone, so there’s no need for you to worry.”

This statement deepened their curiosity.

Cang Yun made no effort to conceal his cultivation level, which was merely at the Golden Core stage.

Yet, the fact that he could reach the very center of the Dantai clan’s ruins at the same time as they did was proof of his extraordinary abilities.

This made them take him a little more seriously.

“I am aware that you guys harbor deep resentment towards Su Jingzhen of the Linjiang Branch of the Evil Moon Sect.

Coincidentally, I also have some unresolved grudges with Su Jingzhen.

In this matter, perhaps I can collaborate with the two of you. I am confident that I can be of assistance to you both in several ways.”

The enemy of my enemy is my friend—Cang Yun understood this principle well.

As they listened to his proposal, the sharpness in Zou Zeyu and Tuoba Junlin’s demeanor diminished slightly, primarily because they didn’t perceive Cang Yun as a threat.

Zou Zeyu chuckled and said, “The Dongxuan Academy is indeed a formidable force. However, you should know that its name holds no weight before the two of us.

Perhaps you could enlighten us—what advantage do you possess?

Otherwise, this place might very well become your final resting place today.”

As he spoke, Zou Zeyu’s aura suddenly became sharp and intense, carrying a potent killing intent.

Despite the pressure, Cang Yun remained calm. “I have the ability to foresee events. I can help the two of you locate Su Jingzhen more quickly.”

As he spoke, Cang Yun pointed directly towards the majestic hall ahead of them.

…

Meanwhile, within the starry void, the flames inside Su Jingzhen’s Black Mountain Furnace had never extinguished.

Before him, nearly twenty Breaking Through Adversity Pills floated in the void, each one of them of the superior quality.

Despite his usual composure, Su Jingzhen couldn’t help but feel a tinge of self-doubt as he looked at the pills.

Logically, after continuously refining over twenty superior-grade Breaking Through Adversity Pills, if this was truly a test, shouldn’t it have already been completed?

“Could it be that the Breaking Through Adversity Pills I’ve been refining are too low in grade? Perhaps second-tier pills aren’t enough?”

Su Jingzhen murmured to himself, pausing for the first time, his eyes filled with confusion.

His gaze remained fixed on the brightest star ahead.

However, he failed to notice that behind him, a dim star—so faint that it could be easily overlooked—began to flicker continuously.

Suddenly, a thin silver beam shot out from that dim star, heading straight toward Su Jingzhen.

Sensing something, Su Jingzhen instinctively turned around, only to meet the beam of light head-on.
