"Hahahaha..."
A few breaths later, Zhu Ranyu burst out laughing again. "Zhou Yiren, you've laid your plans well, trying to break my Dao Heart. Unfortunately, they'll come to nothing!"

"But the problem is, doesn't our Immortal Realm also have an independent Land of Reincarnation? Why, then, do people still fall into the other side?"
Zhou Yiren's expression shifted slightly. "That's a good question. Although the possibility of returning
