As Dao Lord Taichu's voice fell, his figure slowly emerged from beneath the Source Tribulation Divine Hall.
At that moment, he held the Slaughter Divine Spear, wore the Death God Ring, and had the Annihilation Divine Wheel floating behind him as he descended directly before the Source Tribulation Divine Hall.
The instant he appeared, the entire Source Tribulation Realm trembled violently. His astonishing aura caused even the Source Calamity Sea Domain to shake.
"We congratulate Lord on returning to the Source Realm!"
"Lord's might shall suppress the Source Sea, slay the traitors, and annihilate Dao Yuan!"
"Congratulations, Lord!"
"Congratulations, Domain Lord!"
"..."
Mu Wan and the others, Destiny, Karma, and even Jiu Yun, Jiu Yue, and the rest all knelt toward Dao Lord Taichu.
At this time, Bai Ling'er hurriedly steadied herself, turned to glance at Dao Lord Taichu, and revealed a knowing smile.
Dao Lord Taichu's gaze narrowed slightly as it swiftly fell upon Bai Ling'er.
Upon sensing Bai Linger's injuries, the aura around him immediately surged as towering fury erupted from him.
His figure flashed, and he instantly appeared at Bai Linger's side.
"Husband, this Jiu Yuan..."
"Shh!"
"With me here, this fellow cannot cause any trouble!"
Dao Lord Taichu reached out, drew Bai Ling'er into his embrace, and comforted her.
Afterward, he unleashed his power and enveloped Mu Wan and the others.
When his figure moved again, he returned to the front of the Source Tribulation Divine Hall. Mu Wan and the others had also been brought back and scattered along the hall's edge.
During this process, Jiu Yuan tried several times to make a move, only to discover that Dao Lord Taichu had not revealed a single opening.
The fear she had once felt toward Dao Lord Taichu countless epochs ago surged back into her heart.
