Chaos, the Taishang Dao Palace.
At this moment, the Immortal Ancestor, the Supreme Divine Venerable, the Supreme Dao Venerable, the Primordial Beginning Dao Venerable, and others were gathered here, discussing Han Xuanji's earth-shattering act of suppressing the Chaos Will, their expressions still showing lingering shock.
Suddenly, Han Xuanji appeared inside the Dao Palace with Han Husheng.
"Fellow Heavenly Dao!"
Upon seeing Han Xuanji appear, everyone stood up respectfully, but when their gazes fell upon Han Husheng standing beside Han Xuanji Han Husheng, they were all taken aback.
The young Daoist priest in front of them, dressed in a blue robe, had a gentle demeanor and bore a resemblance to Han Xuanji in his features. Although he had restrained his aura considerably, he still exuded an air of authority.
Han Xuanji, seeing the puzzled looks on everyone's faces, spoke calmly:
"Everyone, let me introduce you. This is Han Husheng, also known as the Chaos Will."
"What?!"
Upon hearing this, the council hall fell into a deathly silence. Everyone's expression changed drastically, their eyes filled with disbelief. They stared wide-eyed at Han Husheng, their expressions filled with vigilance.
The Immortal Ancestor's body stiffened slightly, and he subconsciously prepared to unleash his power to attack.
The Chaos Will, an enemy he had always wanted to defeat, had now taken human form, was following Han Xuanji, and even had a name—this completely overturned their understanding.
Upon seeing this, Han Husheng quickly stepped forward, bowed deeply to the Immortal Ancestor, the Supreme Divine Venerable, and others, his expression sincere and his tone full of apology:
"Everyone, in the past, as the Chaos Will, I acted rigidly and conservatively, blindly restricting your transcendence, and even causing conflicts with you. I have offended you in many ways, and I apologize for any offenses I may have caused. I will certainly act according to my master's instructions in the future, and I will not refuse any request you may make."
His attitude was unusually sincere, without the slightest trace of the arrogance of the Chaos Will he had previously displayed.
Although everyone was surprised at how Han Xuanji had done it, it was also clear that the Chaos Will had been completely subdued by Han Xuanji and genuinely wanted to coexist peacefully with everyone.
The Immortal Ancestor and the Supreme Divine Venerable exchanged a glance, their wariness gradually fading and replaced by relief.
The Immortal Ancestor sighed softly, stepped forward, helped Han Husheng up, and spoke in a calm tone:
"Fellow Daoist Husheng, you flatter me. The previous incidents were all due to differing stances, and there was no deep-seated hatred between us."
Now that you are willing to protect all living beings in Chaos, and no longer blindly bind and transcend, we will naturally not hold the past against you.
The Supreme Divine Venerable nodded slowly, a smile appearing on his face:
"Yes, past grievances are wiped clean. From now on, we will work together to protect the Chaos order."
Both the Supreme Dao Venerable and the Primordial Beginning Dao Venerable expressed their willingness to coexist peacefully with Han Husheng and jointly protect the Chaos.
After all, Han Husheng is now Han Xuanji's man, so he is no longer an enemy.
To be honest, if the Chaos Will were on their team, they naturally wouldn't have any objections.
Han Xuanji stood aside, watching this scene, and breathed a sigh of relief.
His biggest worry was that the rift between Han Husheng and the Immortal Ancestor and others would not be resolved, but now it seems that he had worried too much.
Once everyone had calmed down, Han Xuanji stepped forward, his expression gradually becoming serious, and his tone becoming more solemn:
"Gentlemen, besides introducing the Chaos Will as one of our own, I have another important matter to inform you today—I am about to transcend Chaos and journey to the Eternal Continent."
"What? So fast?"
The Immortal Ancestor's eyes were filled with surprise. Although he had known for a long time that Han Xuanji to transcend, he did not expect it to happen so hastily.
The smiles on everyone's faces vanished instantly, their expressions turned serious, and their eyes were filled with worry.
The Supreme Divine Venerable hurriedly asked, " Xuanji Daoist Xuanji, the Eternal Continent is too unknown, and it is rumored to be extremely dangerous. Won't you make more preparations and stabilize your cultivation level?"
Han Xuanji gently shook her head, her tone calm:
"No need. The Chaos Will has now been subdued, and I have completely dealt with my enemies, such as the Devil Ancestor and the Merchant Venerable Juntian. The Chaos order is stable, and there is no longer any worry about the future."
"Though the Eternal Continent is perilous, I must go there to accumulate sufficient strength. I will then lead everyone to the Eternal Continent again."
Afterwards, Han Xuanji briefly explained the situation of the Eternal Continent to everyone, but did not mention anything about Soul Ancestor Hun Qianling.
" The Eternal Continent transcends Chaos, teeming with powerful beings. Numerous beings exist beyond the Hunyuan Wuji, and there are also unspeakable, terrifying entities."
Upon hearing this, everyone's worries intensified, but they also knew that Han Xuanji's mind was made up and could not be changed.
The Immortal Ancestor, with a solemn expression, bowed and said, " Xuanji Daoist Xuanji, rest assured, after you depart, I will certainly protect all living beings in the Immortal Realm, stabilize the Chaos order, and absolutely not allow anyone to act rashly. I await your return."
"Yes, Fellow Xuanji, take care on your journey. We await good news from here!"
Everyone echoed their sentiments, their voices filled with blessings and reluctance. Though they were worried, they could only offer their silent blessings, knowing that Han Xuanji had to walk this path alone.
At this point, everyone felt a pang of regret, never expecting that they too would become a burden.
They could understand; even someone of Han Xuanji's strength was nothing special in the Eternal Continent, and bringing them along would only cause trouble.
Han Xuanji nodded slightly, a hint of warmth flashing in his eyes:
Thank you all for your help.
After bidding farewell to everyone, Han Xuanji turned and left, his figure flashing as he returned to the Xuantian Mystic Heaven Dao Palace Mystic Heaven Hall.
Without the slightest delay, he summoned several of his personal disciples— Li Taiqing, Jiang Hao, Su Ming, Yun Wuji, and others—as well as his spirit pets Little White, Little Gold, and Xiao Hong, and his junior brother Su Ming.
Upon receiving the summons, no one dared to delay. They immediately put down what they were doing and, with the help of the Chaos Heavenly Gate, were instantly teleported back to the Mystic Heaven Dao Palace.
"Do you think Master has something to tell us this time?"
Lu Fan said with a heavy heart, he had a bad feeling.
"Yes, Master's recent big moves, does it foreshadow something...?"
Thinking of this, Jiang Hao frowned.
Li Taiqing and Yun Wuji had already guessed what was going on, sighed, and said nothing more.
The atmosphere was somewhat oppressive.
The moment everyone stepped into the main hall and saw Han Xuanji, their hearts sank, and they were overwhelmed with mixed feelings.
"Master (Senior Brother)!"
"Owner!"
Everyone spoke in unison, their voices trembling with barely perceptible sobs, their expressions filled with sorrow.
They had clearly guessed Han Xuanji's purpose in summoning them.
Han Xuanji felt a headache coming on as he looked at everyone who was on the verge of tears.
How did it suddenly turn into this emotional segment!
He's just leaving; it doesn't mean he's dead, nor does it mean he won't come back.
It made it seem like he was about to do something extremely dangerous, like he was about to die.
However, that makes sense Han Xuanji thought about it and realized that he hadn't explained the matter of the Soul Ancestor, so in everyone's eyes, his trip was indeed extremely dangerous.
After all, there was the example of the Dao Ancestor before them.
It's very likely that they'll never return.
"What? I called you all here just to give me a long face?"
Han Xuanji snorted, his tone somewhat stern.
Upon hearing this, everyone's emotions were interrupted, and their sadness was slightly dispelled, but they still did not laugh.
Li Taiqing took a deep breath, stepped forward, and abandoned any pretense of femininity, her voice hoarse:
"Master, are you about to transcend and leave the Chaos?"
Han Xuanji nodded slightly, his expression returning to solemnity, and slowly said:
"That's right, I'm about to leave Chaos and head to the Eternal Continent."
Han Xuanji then gave a brief explanation of the situation in the Eternal Continent, which broadened everyone's horizons.
