After the preliminaries ended, the major forces and organizations also dispersed.

The disciples of the Shen Ye Sect followed the Third Elder back to the sect. After returning to the sect, the disciples had mixed feelings.

Because in today's preliminaries, they saw many extremely talented practitioners, which made them feel more pressured.

Today, only the Shen Ye Sect and the ten elementalists of the Zhou Dynasty are being tested. Later, practitioners from the eight realms and thirteen prefectures, as well as a group of independent cultivators, will be tested.

At this moment, in 'Guanren Mountain'

After Yun Zheng and the other eight returned, they began to formulate a training plan for the second half of the month.

The key figures in this training plan are Yan Chen and Mu Yin.

Mo Jing patted Mu Yin's shoulder and said earnestly, "Ah Yin, for your own good, I will beat you hard."

Mu Yin's handsome face suddenly fell and he sighed deeply.

"Okay, I'm ready."

Yun Zheng looked around at her friends and said, "Let's help Yan Chen and A Yin to steadily improve their cultivation to the semi-saint realm during this period."

"I understand!" Upon hearing this, the friends couldn't help but look at Yan Chen and Mu Yin with a teasing smile in their eyes.

Yan Chen: “…” He didn’t dare to move.

From this day on, the Fengyun team once again entered into hard training.

Elder Liang has been very busy recently. When he comes back occasionally, he will give some guidance to the eight of them on their cultivation.

During this period, Mo Yu quietly came to see Yun Zheng, asking for gifts and apologizing to her.

What surprised Mo Yu was that the Emperor and Empress never mentioned the Emperor at all, as if they had already forgotten about him.

Mo Yu's pupils suddenly shrank as a thought flashed through his mind: Could it be that the Emperor and Empress have fallen in love with someone else?!

Mo Yu hesitated to speak, glanced at Qingfeng who was standing behind the Emperor and Empress, and then made eye contact with Qingfeng, but Qingfeng looked at him with a smile on his face, as if he could not receive any eye signals.

Mo Yu: “…”

After Mo Yu left Shen Ye Sect, he immediately went somewhere to look for Lord Emperor.

When Mo Yu met the Emperor, he quickly told him the details of his meeting and conversation with the Emperor and Empress.

"You mean the Emperor and Empress didn't mention me at all?"

"yes……"

Before Mo Yu could finish his words, the inky figure in front of him had disappeared.

Mo Yu: “???”

Mo Yu was slightly startled. Could it be that the Emperor had gone to look for the Empress? If the Emperor really did go to look for the Empress, she would probably be discovered by the higher-ups. Then, they would definitely take action against her to deal with the Emperor.

He sighed.

Just as Mo Yu was about to walk towards the gate, a man came towards him. He was very handsome, with his eyebrows, which were as beautiful as ink paintings, tightly furrowed, his thin red lips pressed into a straight line, and he exuded an aloof air.

But there is a faint sense of arrogance.

His deep eyes seemed to reveal a little bit of grievance.

"Emperor, what's wrong with you... ahem..." Mo Yu didn't react for a moment and almost said the wrong thing. He quickly said, "Emperor, you're back."

"Yeah." He said in a cold tone, walked slowly to the seat and sat down, silently took out an ancient book and read it, his eyes seemed to be staring at the book fiercely.

Seeing this, Mo Yu hesitated to speak.

Emperor... held the book upside down!

Emperor Zun glanced at Mo Yu coldly, his tone as cold as ice chips falling, "Get out!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, I'll take my leave!" Mo Yu raised his hand and bowed.

After Mo Yu left, Lord Emperor continued to stare at the ancient book, not noticing that he had held it upside down, because he was very absent-minded at the moment.

After a long while, he held a communication crystal in his slender, bony hand. He pursed his lips, hesitated for a few seconds, and finally sent her a message.

On the other side, 'Guanren Mountain'

Ever since Mo Yu left, Yun Zheng has been a little absent-minded during actual combat training.

She lowered her eyes, thinking a lot. What was Ah Shuo's current situation? Had Ah Shuo's enemies also followed him to the Holy Ruins? If Ah Shuo couldn't contact her for the time being, she could accept that.

On the surface, she could pretend not to care, but in her heart she only wished...

I hope Ah Shuo is safe.

At this moment, the communication crystal in her storage space lit up. With a thought in her mind, she probed into the communication crystal. A deep and affectionate voice came slowly:

"Zheng'er, see you at the Tianling Conference."

After a pause, he said seriously, "I miss you very much. Also, don't worry about me, I'm safe and sound now. After the Tianling Conference is over, I want to tell you something important."

His last sentence sounded a little uncomfortable and shy.

After hearing this, Yun Zheng's frown relaxed, and the corners of her lips curled up unconsciously. She felt a little happy in her heart. She replied, "Okay, no matter how I perform at the Tianling Conference, you must praise me. And... remember to think of me all the time."

After Yun Zheng replied to the message, her bad mood disappeared and she joined the actual combat training with full fighting spirit.

The next moment, a shrill scream was heard from 'Guanren Mountain'.

When the Emperor received the reply, the corners of his lips kept rising.

His eyes couldn't help but soften a little. After the Tianling Conference was over, he would formally go to the Yunwang Mansion in Dongzhou to propose marriage and make an engagement with his Zheng'er.

After getting engaged, they belong to each other.

…

Half a month later.

The Tianling Conference officially begins——

The gate of Shen Ye Sect was opened, and those who had registered as well as some spectators and practitioners from all over the Holy Ruins came in.

The Shen Ye Sect was bustling with activity.

Practitioners coming from outside continued to come in an endless stream, and the place was crowded with at least tens of thousands of people.

Fortunately, the Shen Ye Sect has a vast territory and can accommodate so many people.

The 10,000 applicants who successfully advanced to the preliminaries had already arrived at the foot of Fengtian Mountain early, including Yun Zheng and others.

The top of Fengtian Mountain rises into the sky and reaches the clouds, as if covered by a mysterious veil by nature, making people curious to explore.

Just then, there was a loud noise coming from the front.

Yun Zheng and others looked in the direction of the sound and saw Xuanyuan Bin, the leader of the Shen Ye Sect, standing at the head. Beside him were the first elder Duan Huamao, the second elder Liang Guanren, and the third elder Ouyang Junxiong.

At this moment, Liang Guanren's expression was serious, with a hint of awe-inspiring majesty, completely different from his previous appearance as a servile actor.

Sect leader Xuanyuan Bin is also a double super genius. Compared with the great elders, he looks much younger and seems to be only in his thirties or forties.

Liang Guanren glanced around indifferently and saw that his disciples were in the corner again. He was speechless for a moment.

To sum it up in one sentence, these eight people are quite good at pretending to be pigs and eating the tiger!

No, probably not many people would think that they are very strong.
