Long ago, he had realized that Sect Master Ren Yunzong's origins were anything but simple.
Lin Taixuan's mention of the Nine Yang Manual from the Immortal Realm only further confirmed his original judgment.
Yet faced with Lin Taixuan's shock, True Person Tianheng did not speak again.
With the Illuminating World Lamp in his palm, his gaze slowly swept across the entire scene.
"This little fellow, this old man will protect him today.
No matter which race or which fellow Daoist present is dissatisfied, feel free to make your move.
No matter how many come, this old man will take them all on."
True Person Tianheng's voice was not loud, but every word was deliberate, brimming with imposing momentum.
Wherever his gaze fell, the Tribulation Crossing stage cultivators caught in it almost instinctively frowned.
Even someone as formidable as Venerable Tianyu opened his mouth but did not immediately say anything.
He was at the late Tribulation Crossing stage, and his battle with Lin Taixuan had just displayed terrifying strength.
If one had to face such an existence alone...
Before this, Venerable Tianyu would naturally have been full of confidence. But now, with his strength greatly diminished, he had become increasingly restrained in his actions.
"Count Yun in as well, fellow Daoist!
If the two of us join forces and take this little fellow away with us today, would our chances not be even greater?"
No sooner had True Person Tianheng finished speaking than Yun Yan's hearty voice rang out.
Lightning surged around him, his aura growing ever more blazing.
As his words fell, the two exchanged a glance and moved lightly, one to the left and one to the right, shielding Su Shi'er between them.
Feeling the vast auras emanating from the two, Su Shi'er felt an inexplicable sense of relief.
