"Sect Master! People from Prison Suppression suddenly appeared in the city, and they're heading straight for our sanctuary gates!"
Just as the atmosphere throughout the council hall grew tense,
a Primordial Origin Realm disciple of the Holy Land Interception Sect rushed in from outside, bringing news that shook everyone!
Tongtian had not yet managed to separate Shi Xue and the Human Emperor of Shiva Continent, who were at each other's throats.
The moment he heard that people from Prison Suppression had come, his heart jolted.
"People from Prison Suppression? Why would they come here?"
"Could it still be about what happened back then?"
Before Tongtian and the others could figure things out, an icy voice suddenly sounded outside.
"Sect Master Tongtian, I've come in person. Surely you're not going to turn this commander away?"
At that voice, both Tongtian's and Shi Xue's expressions changed. It was all too familiar-unmistakably Bai Zeyu's!
But ever since they had successfully escaped the Secret Realm back then,
Tongtian had essentially had no further dealings with Prison Suppression. He only vaguely remembered that a dozen or so Demonic Cultivators seemed to have escaped through the Secret Realm as well.
Over the years, he had either been fighting wars or trapped in the Secret Realm, so he really had not kept track of those Demonic Cultivators.
Tongtian's expression grew grave and somewhat helpless.
"It's Bai Zeyu. Why has he come?"
Seeing Tongtian's expression, even Gong Lin frowned, looking rather displeased.
"You certainly have luck with romance, Tongtian."
"I thought that little lass from the Brahma Heaven Province Human Emperor Manor was already the limit. Who knew you'd not only hidden a beauty in a golden house, but gotten involved with the Prison-Suppressing Commander too?"
"How could that fellow Green Lotus trust you to protect my daughter?"
