"Emperor Cangyun?"
Lin Feng's gaze sharpened, and he said in a deep voice, "Daring to call himself Emperor, could it be that he has already reached the cultivation level of a half-step Supreme?"
"Yes! The Cangyun Empire is the most powerful empire in the Central Plains. The Cangyun Emperor, as the strongest person in the empire, broke through to the half-step Supreme level a long time ago, which is why he is respectfully called the Cangyun Emperor!"
Cui Ying nodded and said, "So many years have passed, he might have become a true supreme being by now!"
"I know that your strength has improved by leaps and bounds recently, but no matter what, you are still no match for this old thief Cangyun!"
"So promise me, you will never go directly to him for revenge!"
"Don't worry, I'm not that stupid!"
Lin Feng smiled and nodded. With his current strength, he was indeed not confident in dealing with a half-step supreme being, so he naturally wouldn't seek his own death. He then solemnly asked, "Why did you and Emperor Cangyun become sworn enemies?"
"Actually, I am the Holy Maiden of the Golden Sun Sect in Zhongzhou. The Great Emperor Cangyun also came from the Golden Sun Sect!"
Cui Ying slowly said, "Back when I was just a child, Emperor Cangyun was already the number one genius in the sect!"
"Later, in order to break through his cultivation bottleneck, he didn't hesitate to sacrifice the entire Golden Sun Sect with his blood!"
"By sheer luck, I escaped this calamity and witnessed the entire brutal process of the blood sacrifice. I saw with my own eyes that all my relatives and friends died tragically at his hands!"
"From that moment on, I swore an oath to the heavens that I would kill this old thief Cangyun in this lifetime and avenge the Jin Yang Sect members who died tragically at his hands!"
Cui Ying's gaze was incredibly firm as she spoke.
"To break through his cultivation bottleneck, he actually sacrificed the entire sect? What a beast!"
Lin Feng was also filled with righteous indignation after hearing this.
He asked himself, "Although I'm not a good person, I would never harm the people around me!"
But this Emperor Cangyun, in order to cultivate, did not distinguish between friend and foe, and even sacrificed his own relatives, friends and teachers. He was simply insane!
Of course, if the other party doesn't provoke him, he won't bother with such a pervert.
But since the other party has foolishly provoked Lin Feng's woman, then no matter if the other party is an emperor or a supreme being, there is only one way out: death!
"Lin Feng, I haven't been back to Jin Yang Gate for a long time. Could you take me back for a visit?"
Cui Ying, who was in Lin Feng's arms, suddenly pleaded.
"Of course! Do you have a map of Jinyang Gate?"
Lin Feng smiled slightly and nodded.
"Yes! Here you go!"
As she spoke, Cui Ying took out a jade slip containing a map of the Jin Yang Sect and handed it to Lin Feng.
"Okay, I know where it is!"
Lin Feng took the jade slip, scanned it with his divine sense, and immediately memorized the coordinates of the Golden Sun Gate. Then, with a wave of his hand, he tore open a spatial rift in the air, and then, carrying Cui Ying, stepped inside.
...
At the same time.
In a primeval forest, hundreds of thousands of miles away from the Hehuan Sect, a large amount of white mist was permeating the air, and many magnificent buildings that had been abandoned for hundreds or thousands of years could be vaguely seen.
This mountain forest seems to have been uninhabited for a long time, with no trace of human footsteps in sight, only strange bird calls and animal roars can be heard.
However, in the dark corners that are hard for outsiders to notice, there are pairs of sharp eyes that are constantly scanning the surrounding sky, like hunters who have been lying in wait for their prey to come to them!
"Jinyang Gate has been destroyed for so many years, why do they still want us to guard this place?"
"Exactly! Aren't all the people from Jin Yang Sect dead? What are we left to guard these ruins for?"
"What do you know! It's said that some escaped back then. Although they're not a big deal, the higher-ups still want to nip it in the bud and eliminate any future trouble!"
"But even if there are any who managed to escape, it's probably pointless for us to stay here. Since they managed to escape back then, would they be foolish enough to walk right back into our trap and come back to their deaths?"
"That's hard to say! After all, so many years have passed! Even we think it's unlikely that anyone will appear here again, so how could the other side not believe that this place is safe now?"
"That makes sense! Stop complaining! Let's keep waiting patiently! If we can catch that escaped fish and bring it back, we'll be rich!"
"The problem is, we don't know just how strong that escaped foe is... With our strength, are we even capable of dealing with it!"
"Don't worry! Based on the timeline, the cultivation level of that escaped foe is definitely no higher than that of a low-level Great Emperor! We, on the other hand, are all high-level Great Emperors! Especially our Captain Wang, who is a peak Great Emperor! Let alone that mere escaped foe, even the Golden Sun Sect at its peak wouldn't be a match for us. What's there to worry about?"
"That's true! There's really nothing to worry about! This job, apart from being a bit tedious, is actually quite safe!"
In a dark corner, several figures continued to patrol the area around the Jin Yang Gate ruins while secretly exchanging whispers.
Rumble!
Just then, accompanied by a sound like muffled thunder, a spatial rift suddenly appeared in the sky above the Jin Yang Gate ruins!
"A spatial rift? Someone's coming!"
"What? Someone actually dares to come here!"
"Could it really be a remnant of the Jin Yang Sect who fled back then?"
"Haha, brothers, our chance to make a fortune has arrived!"
"Heaven has eyes! All those years of waiting have finally paid off; we've caught the one who slipped through the net back then!"
Upon seeing the spatial rift appear in the air, the figures in the shadows immediately brightened up, their faces filled with joy, and they instantly prepared to take action!
At this moment, under the watchful eyes of those in the shadows, Lin Feng, carrying Cui Ying, strolled leisurely out of the spatial rift.
"Jin Yang Gate has become so desolate..."
Seeing the ruins of Jinyang Gate, now transformed into a primeval forest, Cui Ying, nestled in Lin Feng's arms, frowned, deeply saddened.
"Huh? An ambush! One peak Great Emperor, and more than a dozen high-level Great Emperors? Their strength is not weak!"
At the same time, Lin Feng instantly spotted the figures lurking in the shadows. But instead of being afraid, he was overjoyed, as if he had found a treasure!
"Huh? There are actually two remnants!"
"A high-level Great Emperor? A half-step Great Emperor? Their cultivation levels are stronger than we expected!"
"So what? Just a high-level Great Emperor! We have more than a dozen high-level Great Emperors, plus a peak Great Emperor, which is more than enough to easily take them down!"
"Don't rush to act! The orders from above are to capture them alive first. Follow me!"
"Yes, Captain!"
At the same time, those people hiding in the shadows of the forest below were also somewhat surprised to see Lin Feng and his companion. Then, led by the peak emperor at the head, they transformed into streaks of light that shot up from the forest below and surrounded Lin Feng and his companion!
