"Dragon Ancestor, Phoenix Ancestor, fellow Daoists of the Demon Race, it has truly been many years."
As soon as the words fell, an old man walked out of the passage.
The old man wore a faded gray daoist robe, its hems embroidered in silver thread with the Zhou Tian Star Dou Diagram and obscure Runes.
He was lean and gaunt, his face aged yet full of vigor, fine wrinkles covering his forehead.
Most striking were his eyes. Their pupils were not black, but the deep color of a starry sky, as though countless stars flickered within them, while threads formed from myriad karmic causes and effects wound and intertwined.
"Heaven's Mandate!"
Phoenix Ancestor fixed her phoenix eyes on the old man, her voice carrying a trace of undisguisable wariness.
"So this was the founder of the Great Evolution Sacred Land—the Ancient Immortal of Heavenly Fate who killed the Earth Emperor Demonic Immortal. No, I should say, Heaven's Mandate Immortal King?" Jiang Chuan glanced at Heaven's Mandate Immortal King.
"Heaven's Mandate, you claim your deductions are unparalleled. Did you foresee Tianmu Dao Fall?"
While fiercely battling Sun Yixian, Dragon Ancestor shouted aloud.
"Who could fathom the workings of the Heavenly Dao? I merely understood a little."
Heaven's Mandate Immortal King's expression remained calm, without the slightest emotional fluctuation over Immortal King Tianmu's Dao Fall.
"In another universe, even if I possessed abilities reaching the heavens, how could I deduce the affairs of this universe? However, Tianmu and I had known each other since the Ancient Era. He even ascended with us. Since he has fallen, we naturally must avenge him."
"The vengeance you seek is not limited to Tianmu."
Jiang Chuan's voice was icy, like an Immortal Sword drawn from its sheath.
