Ai Chong glanced at him and said coldly, "If Grandmaster Uncle and the others don't understand the true strength of the Supreme God Palace, how could you, who have been there, not understand?"

"Others only have one Divine Lord, but this one comes from the Upper God Realm. Otherwise, why do you think that the two Divine Lords that Uncle-Master Zhen invited from the Divine Continent both fled in disarray?"

The elder fell silent.

Ai Chong continued, "Palace Master Shu spared our Tiande Sect this time out of respect for me, the sect leader, but he also gave us a word."

"If there is a next time, we will never let Tiande Sect off the hook again."

"If our grandmaster uncles really go, how are we supposed to face the Supreme Temple's retaliation? Even our grandmaster uncles are no match for them, let alone us."

As his words fell silent, the council chamber fell silent.

Ai Huixian suddenly asked, "Father, have you already tried to persuade your grandmaster?"

Ai Chong nodded, "We've tried to persuade them, but to no avail."

"They've already explained the stakes; they don't take the Supreme Temple seriously at all."

Ai Huixian thought for a moment and said, "Then let's go and explain to Palace Master Shu that the actions of our Grandmaster Uncles have nothing to do with our Tiande Sect."

“How could they be unrelated? Without them, there would be no Tiande Sect as it is today. Who would believe that their actions have nothing to do with Tiande Sect?” Ai Chong frowned deeply.

Ai Huixian said, "What I mean is that you should go and greet Palace Master Shu first, tell her about this matter, as a way of currying favor. Whether it works out or not, it's better than doing nothing."

"You've tried to persuade your grandmasters, but they won't listen. Whether you talk to them or not, their success rate is only 50%."

The elders looked at each other without offering any opinions, remaining bystanders.

Ai Chong glanced at them and sighed.

Thinking to himself, no wonder the ancestors set an ancestral rule that the Ai family's secrets could only be passed down to the direct descendants of the Ai family.

None of these so-called elders are reliable.

Ai Chong invited Ai Huixian to go to the Supreme Temple together.

After they finished explaining their purpose, Shu Jianyue narrowed her eyes. "So, you want me to let your Tiande Sect off the hook, is that right?"

Ai Chong nodded awkwardly, "My grandmaster uncles don't believe what I, the sect leader, have to do."

"I wouldn't dare ask the Palace Master to forgive my Grandmaster and the others, but could you perhaps show some leniency towards the Tiande Sect?"

Shu Jianyue thought for a moment, and was about to say something when she felt a ripple outside.

She immediately darted out of the main hall, and when she saw the person appearing in mid-air, Shu Jianyue flew up and threw herself into his arms, exclaiming, "You're back!"

Chong Jiu hugged her and laughed, "Yes, I came back because I was afraid you would miss me."

Shu Jianyue rolled her eyes at him. "You're the one who missed me, aren't you?"

"Yes, I missed you, so I couldn't wait to come back," Chong Jiu nodded.

Shu Jianyue's eyes reddened slightly. "I miss you too."

"Let's go back first. How's the investigation into Bai Jue going?" Shu Jianyue asked, glancing at Yan Huang, who had come down with Chong Jiu.

Chong Jiu put his arm around her waist and led her back to the front of the main hall.

Upon seeing this, Ai Chong immediately stepped forward and bowed, "Palace Master Chong."

This made her realize even more how good her daughter's suggestion was; with the return of the Palace Master, the Supreme Temple's strength would be even greater.

The chances for my grandmaster uncles are probably only one or two out of ten.

Chong Jiu glanced at him and nodded slightly. "Mm."

Then, looking at Shu Jianyue, he asked, "What is he here for?"

So Shu Jianyue recounted what had happened in the past few days.

Chong Jiu replied, "Hang that woman outside the Supreme God Temple's sect gates and let outsiders watch. Anyone who dares to offend the Supreme God Temple will suffer this fate."

He looked at Ai Chong and said, "You can go back now. If those old guys dare to come, they will not return. The Supreme God Venerable may not do anything to the Heavenly Virtue Sect, but you will have to pay the corresponding price."

As for the consequences, you can decide for yourselves.

Ai Chong understood, glanced at Yan Huang, bowed, and took his leave with Ai Huixian.

As Ai Huixian left, she kept secretly observing Yan Huang.

Yan Huang kept his eyes straight ahead, as if he hadn't seen her at all. Only after they left did he ask, "Where's your little apprentice? Let me see if he's my son."

Shu Jianyue rolled her eyes at him. "If that's the case, you've already come all this way, wouldn't you have the power of your bloodline guiding you?"

Yama was stunned for a moment, then slapped his forehead and said, "That's right, I got confused in the Upper God Realm."

After saying that, he turned and left.

Chong Jiu took Shu Jianyue back to her bedchamber and carefully inquired about recent events, asking if she had been injured or anything like that.

As the questioning progressed, the conversation shifted to other topics.

Yama tried it and found that there really were traces of his bloodline nearby.

Following the pull, Yama arrived at the place where Wu Yan, Si Huaijin, and Yu Chuan were.

Yu Chuan was teaching Si Huai Jin cultivation, so Wu Yan was the first to discover the existence of the Yama King.

But when Wu Yan saw him, he froze, his face showing disbelief.

Only then did Yu Chuan notice Yan Huang, and he stood up to ask, "Has my father returned as well?"

The fact that he's back from the heavy moxibustion treatment means he can move around freely again.

Yama ignored him and stared intently at Wuyan.

Believe it or not, this really is his child.

But he had no recollection of it. Who would dare to steal his seed and bring it to the Holy Spirit Realm?

No, it's the human realm.

How did she manage to evade his senses and secretly give birth to the child?

But what's wrong with this child? Why is he wearing that thing on his eyes?

blind?

The King of Hell came before Wu Yan and said, "You can feel it now, can't you? I am your father."
