"It's not unusual for me to let you go. Your true body and remnant soul are both dead. How much danger can you, a mere early-stage Sky-Stepping Realm cultivator, pose to me? Besides, if you really have other ideas, the first person to be injured will be the three ancient clans. I am ultimately an outsider."

Han Feng disagreed.

"Senior is right. With my cultivation level, it is almost impossible for me to threaten you. I was just being presumptuous."

The ancient god ancestor smiled bitterly.

"I will not reveal your secret. I do not know how Gu Ruyan will deal with you when she discovers your identity in the future."

"Of course, it's already kind of you, senior, not to tell anyone."

Han Feng gave Gu Ruyan some instructions and then prepared to leave the Ancient God Clan.

He has been out for much longer than expected.

If Han Feng misses the underground maze, he will be in big trouble.

"Senior, do you really think I can unite the ancient demon race and the ancient monster race under the command of the ancient god race?" Gu Ruyan asked worriedly.

"Your strength surpasses that of the other two progenitors, so why can't you unify them?" Han Feng countered.

“Senior, I have such great confidence in myself, I shouldn’t be afraid before the battle even begins. I will not let you down. When you come to the Ancient God Clan again, I will give you a powerful Ancient God Clan. Your words are the will of Heaven.”

"It's good that you have the intention."

Han Feng didn't hesitate any longer and disappeared from the spot.

Gu Ruyan remained rooted to the spot, staring intently at the place where Han Feng had disappeared.

She still feels like she's dreaming when she thinks back on what happened.

Gu Ruyan was a little scared; it was all a dream.

Once she regains consciousness, everything will disappear.

Gu Ruyan recalled the countless lives she had experienced on the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

She had personally experienced all of these aspects of life, tasting all kinds of joys and sorrows, birth, aging, sickness, and death.

After experiencing life's many trials, Gu Ruyan's resolve became increasingly firm.

Gu Ruyan's life experiences are all very different.

The only similarity is that in any life, Senior Han is someone who is unattainable.

Whether it was due to her life experiences or not, Gu Ruyan had a special feeling for Senior Han.

She felt better than in any other life, being able to talk to Senior Han.

Throughout her life experiences, she had only met Senior Han many times, without ever having the chance to speak with him.

While Gu Ruyan was in a daze, the ancestor of the ancient god clan came to her side.

Gu Ruyan noticed the ancient god ancestor beside her and quickly greeted him, "Ancestor, when did you arrive?"

The ancient god ancestor laughed and said, "I've been here for a long time, but the people around me just didn't notice."

"Oh, I'm sorry, Ruyan."

"Ruyan, some things are cruel, but the ancestor has to tell you that there is no possibility between you and this senior. Also, I think your feelings are admiration for the strong, not true love."

Gu Ruyan blushed: "Ancestor, what are you saying?"

The ancient god ancestor sighed: "I have seen many matters of the heart, far more than you have. You are over ten thousand years old, but I have seen at least ten million. I am afraid that you will get too deeply involved and it will be impossible for you to leave later."

Gu Ruyan shook her head and said, "Ancestor, your worries are unnecessary. This senior is someone I can only admire from afar. I can only feel respect for him."

She won't wait foolishly for a lifetime like she has in her past experiences.

It wasn't that Gu Ruyan didn't want to wait; she was just planning to use a certain method.

In those lives, she was an insignificant presence to Senior Han.

In reality, her role is much more significant; Senior Han will need her in his future endeavors.

Gu Ruyan decided to seize this opportunity and not let Senior Han down.

As long as Senior Han needs her, she can still have contact with him.

"Your life is in your own hands; I can only give you one piece of advice."

The ancestor of the ancient gods wanted to persuade Gu Ruyan, but then changed his mind.

If Gu Ruyan can continue to follow this senior Han, she will achieve great things in the future.

Upon reflection, the ancient god ancestor realized he had been meddling in other people's business.

Gu Ruyan may seem naive, but she is actually a very intelligent and insightful person.

If the ancestors of the ancient gods knew that Gu Ruyan had experienced hundreds of lives in the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

He felt that there was nothing wrong with Gu Ruyan's rapid growth, as he had personally experienced all of these life experiences.

...

Tianyuan Tribe.

The entrance to the underground labyrinth.

Last time, Huang Yating broke through to the Yellow Heaven Realm and left Lin Yixuan's team.

Two other people were controlled by Huang Yating and died at the hands of the Blood Demon Overlord.

Lin Yixuan's team was originally a full team of seven, but now it is short of three people.

The three spots were quickly filled; the three were two men and one woman.

The woman's name was Murong Yunyan, and she was quite beautiful.

A man of average appearance and build, easily overlooked in a crowd, named Zhang Shuo.

One of the men was handsome and tall, a true gentleman, named Zhao Guangliang.

The underground labyrinth has been completely excavated by people with Dao Tian Realm cultivation.

These three were not dug out from the underground labyrinth; rather, they joined Lin Yixuan's team after other teams suffered casualties.

"Captain, time is almost up. Let's hurry down. If we miss the time and Master Yuan finds out, we'll be in trouble," Murong Yunyan said.

"Six people have arrived in our team, but we are still missing one fellow Daoist. It's not that we didn't wait for this fellow Daoist, but unfortunately, he didn't arrive in time, and we are quite helpless about it." Zhao Guangliang nodded.

“That’s about right. This isn’t your first time in the underground labyrinth, so it’s really inexcusable that you’re late,” Zhang Shuo nodded.

"Huang Feichen forgot the time and was late. We have already waited for a while, which is more than enough. Now you can go in."

Li Xiuzhen urged him on, eager to enter the underground labyrinth.

She had previously heard that a great demon had emerged from the underground labyrinth and attacked the palace where Huang Feichen was located.

Li Xiuzhen was overjoyed, thinking that Huang Feichen had perished.

Just as she was getting ready to celebrate, Lin Yixuan told Li Xiuzhen that Huang Feichen had left Tianyuan Tribe a long time ago.

Li Xiuzhen's joy vanished instantly when she saw that Huang Feichen hadn't come over.

She also hoped that Lin Yixuan would quickly open the underground maze so that she and the others could enter.

Once the entire team enters the underground maze, it won't matter if Huang Feichen arrives later.

"If I told you who this person who didn't come is, I'm sure the three of you wouldn't object to me waiting."

Lin Yixuan ignored Li Xiuzhen, knowing that Liu Xiuzhen and Huang Feichen did not have a good relationship.
