At the border between the South Sea Region and the Eastern Sea Region.
On a remote island called Spirit Boat Island, Zhang Yuan stood atop its mountain, gazing toward the Mysterious Court in the South Sea Region.
Spirit Boat Island had thin spiritual energy and scarce resources. It had neither cultivators nor even mortal towns, making it a fine place to live in seclusion.
But Zhang Yuan had not come here to live in seclusion. He had come to test the Mysterious Court's two Great Immortal Lords.
Spirit Boat Island fell within the Mysterious Court's territory in the South Sea Region. Now that he had set foot on it, a Great Immortal Lord of the Mysterious Court might sense him, then send a palm descending from the heavens to erase the entire island.
Though this was somewhat risky, Qin Jieyu and Xiao Yuanjun were also on the island, so his life would not truly be in danger.
And if the Mysterious Court's Great Immortal Lords sensed nothing...
After being schemed against last night, Zhang Yuan had to go settle the score with the Mysterious Court somehow. He would leave grand claims about destroying the Mysterious Court aside for now, but Ye Guhong and Xu Lingyin certainly had to die.
As a Foundation Establishment Celestial, he was a Divine Immortal of the Ancient Immortal Dao by the Mountain-Sea Profound Yellow Realm's reckoning. Besides, he was not even in the Azure Firmament Dust-Dyed Realm anymore. Was he supposed to simply swallow this loss?
"There seems to be no reaction. Looks like the Mysterious Court's Great Immortal Lords aren't watching the entire sea region at every moment. There's a real opening to use [Severing Past and Present, Leaving or Staying] to slip into the Mysterious Court and kill Ye Guhong and Xu Lingyin."
