Chapter 2531: Nubis in Danger
Jian Chen frowned from that as his heart became rather heavy.
He had already witnessed the strength of the first majesty of the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng. When he fused with the Samsaric Immortal Exalt’s soul back in the Neptunean Divine Palace, he had praised the first majesty that she was only a step away from becoming a Grand Exalt.
In other words, the first majesty of the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng, Yi Xin, was extremely close to becoming a Grand Exalt.
However, she actually struggled to kill the Heaven-splitting Ancestor, which reflected the strength of the Heaven-splitting Ancestor instead.
“They really are Ninth Heavenly Layer Grand Primes after all! Every single supreme expert like that was a supreme prodigy who stood invincible among their cultivation level in the past.” Jian Chen was secretly amazed. He gained a new understanding of the Heaven-splitting Ancestor’s strength.
“Ninth majesty, it is no longer safe for you to remain in the Tian Yuan clan, as the Heaven-splitting Ancestor came for you,” Ming Xie said to Ming Dong sternly. He was responsible for Ming Dong’s safety. Now that the Heaven-splitting Ancestor eyed Ming Dong, it made Ming Xie extremely uneasy.
There would be nothing he could do before a supreme expert only second to Grand Exalts.
“He’s come for me? Because my first senior sister is hunting him down?” Ming Dong replied rather sternly with questions.
“That’s right. The Heaven-splitting Ancestor has already been hunted down by the first majesty for several decades now. This matter has already spread across the Saints’ World. It has been a great hit to the Heaven-splitting Ancestors name, basically humiliating him completely. As a result, the Heaven-splitting Ancestor feels resentment and plans on laying his hands on you. He wants to either capture you or kill you for what he is going through.”
“After all, anyone would hold resentment after being chased around for several decades, let alone someone as great as the Heaven-splitting Ancestor,” said Ming Xie.
“But isn’t my master present? I refuse to believe he’ll really be able to kill me. And first senior sister is there as well. I’ll just stay here,” Ming Dong said stubbornly.
At this moment, an attendant reported that the leaders of the Four Symbols Alliance and the Righteous Alliance had come to visit. Even the lord of the Heaven’s Link Peak was present.
After all, all the Primordial realm experts on the Cloud Plane had witnessed what happened just then. A supreme experts wanted to attack the Tian Yuan clan, but he was stopped by another supreme expert.
Moreover, the Heaven-splitting Ancestor had already been identified out of the two of them. The other person’s identity became obvious.
After all, the first majesty of the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng’s pursuit of the Heaven-splitting Ancestor had already raised quite the hubbub in the Saints’ World. Everyone learnt about it several decades ago.
A battle at such a level was just too terrifying and shocking. It was impossible to hide it. As long as they passed near a plane, abnormalities would occur in the sky of the plane, allowing everyone on there to sense what was happening.
As a result, all the supreme experts of the Cloud Plane understood that it was the first majesty hunting down the Heaven-splitting Ancestor, and they realised the Heaven-splitting Ancestor wanted to target Ming Dong.
This made the peak experts of the Cloud Plane even less inclined towards provoking Ming Dong instead.
Ming Dong naturally ignored their visit, but Jian Chen was unable to turn a blind eye to them. He received them as the patriarch of the Tian Yuan clan.
After all, they were extremely influential figures on the Cloud Plane. He could not give them the cold shoulder.
“The first majesty of the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng cares for Ming Dong so much. It looks like Ming Dong is definitely the first majesty’s disciple…”
“The first majesty of the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng has hunted down the Heaven-splitting Ancestor for so long, but never have we heard of her using the Authority of the Grand Exalt. When the Heaven-splitting Ancestor attacked the Tian Yuan clan earlier, he directly infuriated her, making her use a trump card like the Authority of the Grand Exalt. That’s more than enough to show just how much the first majesty cares for Ming Dong…”
“We need to treat Ming Dong carefully. If we can establish ties with the Heaven Palace of Bisheng, it will be a great joyous matter…”
The visiting leaders discussed with one another secretly.
None of them knew Ming Dong’s true identity. They subconsciously believed he was the disciples of the first majesty.
Just as Jian Chen was receiving the leaders of the two alliances, an unwelcomed guest appeared in the forbidden grounds of the Tian Yuan clan.
It was a woman. She was beautiful and extremely quiet. She seemed otherworldly in her white dress. She appeared before Ming Dong all of a sudden. The powerful formations that Ming Xie had cast around the Tian Yuan clan were basically non-existent before her.
“Eighth senior sister, why’ve you come?” Ming Dong’s face immediately lit up happily when he saw the woman.
In the years he spent in the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng, he was the most familiar with his eighth senior sister, Bai Rong. At the same time, Bai Rong was the one who had guided him the most.
“Greetings to the eighth majesty!” Ming Xie bowed from beside Ming Dong, and even Yun Xiaoyan showed respect.
“Ninth junior, the Heaven-splitting Ancestor has begun eyeing you. It’s time for you to return. It’s no longer safe for you to remain outside.” The first thing that Bai Rong said was for Ming Dong to return. She spoke indifferently and very softly. She did not treat the Heaven-splitting Ancestor like he was a big deal, but she dared not overlook him either.
Ming Dong refused without any hesitation. He insisted on staying in the Tian Yuan clan, and he even brought up their master.
Bai Rong sighed gently and showed powerlessness. “Although master has already recovered and master’s will can descend anywhere to protect you, you know exactly what kind of existence master is. As disciples, we should not create a lot of trouble for master. Eighth junior, I won’t force you to leave since you insist on staying, but I would advise you to leave soon.”
With that, Bai Rong departed. Just like how she had come, she left silently, without leaving behind a single trace at all.
In the blink of an eye, a year had passed. During that year, everything remained the same on the Cloud Plane. Nothing changed. However, the Tian Yuan clan did continue to expand rapidly. It held a very great status, and its heritage gradually deepened from the tremendous amount of resources and heavenly resources from the Heavenly Moon Empire.
The first majesty of the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng, Yi Xin, continued to hunt down the Heaven-splitting Ancestor in outer space. This matter became a hot topic among all the Primordial realm experts in the Saints’ World. They all guessed at the reason.
It had been a year since Nubis and protector Xue went to the Delight Plane as well. They still had not returned.
On this day, Jian Chen sat in his residence and cultivated within the clan. However, his eyes suddenly snapped open, and three pieces of jade appeared in his hand. They had all been crushed.
Jian Chen’s face immediately sank when he saw the crushed jade talismans.
Before Nubis left, he had given Nubis three talismans that were mutually linked. If one was crushed, it meant he needed reinforcement.
If two were crushed, it meant that he was in danger and needed help.
If three were crushed, it meant that he faced an extremely dangerous situation, where his life was in danger.
“Nubis is in danger!”
Jian Chen’s heart tightened when he saw the three crushed jade talismans. He immediately stopped cultivating and vanished from his residence silently.
“All protectors gather as quickly as possible!” At the same time, Jian Chen passed down an order to summon all the Primordial realm experts in the clan.
With that, all the Primordial realm protectors put down their matters and emerged from cultivation, appearing before Jian Chen as quickly as possible.
The patriarch’s order had a completely different effect compared to the past. When Jian Chen used it the first time, it took them several minutes for fifteen Primordial realm experts to gather in the main hall.
But this time, in less than five seconds, all the Primordial realm protectors arrived before him, awaiting his orders.
“Senior Xu!” Jian Chen stood there emotionlessly with a sunken face as he contacted Xu Ran.
With that, Xu Ran appeared before him. She looked at Jian Chen calmly and asked, “Have you come across any problems?”
Xu Ran’s arrival surprised all the Primordial realm protectors there.
“Has something big happened? The patriarch has even called over senior Xu,” the Primordial realm protectors were in doubt.
