Lin Xun was talking to Mi Wuya and Yan Yurou after they had regained consciousness. Soon, some of his doubts were solved. It turned out that after Heavenly Emperor Shi was killed, Mi Wuya and Yan Yurou had set out together with the intention of traveling to the other side of the cosmos to advance their dao. The duo’s trekking path was quite similar to Lin Xun's. They had experienced all kinds of dangers along the way and passed through broken and depleted planes. They had also entered some highly prosperous universes, where they would inevitably be intercepted as prey. Although they were both top-notch worldly experts on the Ancient Nebula Road, their strength was ultimately inadequate when facing Emperor characters at higher cultivation realms. So, after entering a certain starfield, they had unfortunately been captured by a Ninth Realm Ancestor. Back then, the duo originally thought that they would be in trouble, but to their surprise, that Ninth Realm Ancestor confined them after learning where they came from and sold them to Wen Shaoheng afterward like they were slaves. Wen Shaoheng did not kill them, but instead cast a strange spell upon their souls and gained complete control over them. Later, the two learned that there was a bounty on all Emperors coming out of the Ancient Nebula Road and going to the other side of the cosmos! Whenever one was captured, they could be exchanged for one hundred thousand first-grade cosmic origin crystals! Ten thousand first-grade cosmic origin crystals were enough to tempt any Emperor. One hundred thousand of them...could excite any Ninth Realm Ancestor's greed and make them salivate. As a result, all the universes along the way had their eyes fixed on Emperors who passed by from the Ancient Nebula Road. This was also the reason why Lin Xun or any other Emperor from the Ancient Nebula Road would frequently get besieged during their travels. Lin Xun himself had been intercepted an uncountable number of times. He couldn't help but ask, “Who posted the bounty?” One hundred thousand first-grade cosmic origin crystals in exchange for an Emperor of the Ancient Nebula Road, this was an outrageous sum that ordinary organizations simply couldn't afford. “The Luo Clan on the other side of the cosmos,” Mi Wuya gave an answer that was both unexpected and reasonable to Lin Xun. Because only the Luo Clan, who had controlled the Ancient Nebula Road for countless years with the taboo law power, would do such a crazy thing. “Then do you guys know why the Luo Clan is doing this?” Lin Xun mused. “This must be their revenge on the Ancient Nebula Road!” Mi Wuya's face was grim. “The Nameless Esteemed Emperor is dead, and so is Heavenly Emperor Shi. How can they not be angry?” Yan Yurou nodded as she also agreed with this speculation. Lin Xun secretly commented in his heart that these two were not the only ones. There was also the purple-clothed Yanxing, the Luo Clan’s seventh elder Luo Xingfeng, and a supreme Great Emperor named Luo Chen. Luo Chen in particular was considered one of the brightest supreme Great Emperors of the Luo Clan's younger generation. With an outstanding aptitude and unrivaled depth, he was born to cultivate. It was said that he had awakened the Luo Clan's top bloodline talent called ‘Astral Flame Spirit Vortex.’ After only eight hundred years, he had already reached the fourth realm of the Supreme Emperor Stage! This was a lot faster than the speed of Wen Shaoheng, who was only at the seventh realm after eight thousand years of cultivation. However, Luo Chen...had long been dead at the hands of Lin Xun in the Celestial Phoenix Nest. Now that Lin Xun had learned about some of the situations in the Eternal True Realm, he was able to determine one thing after comparing them to Wen Shaoheng’s case. Luo Chen's death had definitely angered the entire Luo Clan! Adding to this, Luo Xingfeng, the Nameless Esteemed Emperor, Heavenly Emperor Shi, and the purple-clothed Yanxing were all big names in their clan, but they had also been killed on the Ancient Nebula Road. How could this not make the Luo Clan go berserk? That was why they had issued the bounty for all Emperors from the Ancient Nebula Road. However, Lin Xun had a feeling that this was only one of the reasons. The Luo Clan probably had other purposes for doing so. After some thinking, he asked, “Why does someone of Wen Shaoheng’s status care so much about the Luo Clan's bounty?” On this matter, Mi Wuya glanced at Lin Xun with a complicated look, “Actually, this probably concerns you, Brother Lin.” Lin Xun was stunned. “Me?” Next to him, Yan Yurou whispered, “Wen Shaoheng has always been in love with a woman named Luo Ling from the Luo Clan, and that bounty the Luo Clan issued is rumored to be her idea. “Perhaps in order to curry favor with Luo Ling, Wen Shaoheng did some investigation and learned that Brother Lin is the first on the Ancient Nebula Road to have become a supreme Emperor in one hundred thousand years. That’s why he’s been trying to capture you and hand you to Luo Ling as a gift. “As such, Wen Shaoheng even sent many people to the Ancient Nebula Road, but after searching for a long time, he didn't find any traces of you...” Lin Xun couldn't help but raise a brow, “He’s being this unscrupulous for the sake of pleasing a woman?” Yan Yurou said, “It is said that Luo Ling is a legend of the Luo Clan, born with the Nine Absolute Divine Body. Therefore her aptitude and cultivation are far superior to the masses. “Not only so, her beauty, temperament, and charisma are all extremely outstanding. She is very famous in the Eternal True Realm where she is worshipped as a goddess in the sky. “Wen Shaoheng once said that in order to pursue a goddess like Luo Ling, one naturally has to be creative to capture her heart.” Lin Xun snorted with a dark look in his eyes. In order to impress a woman, Wen Shaoheng had planned to capture him and offer him as a gift to Luo Ling. How wildly arrogant! Meanwhile, he finally understood why that guy had been keeping Mi Wuya and Yan Yurou by his side. Perhaps it was because Wen Shaoheng hadn't been able to capture him, so he had wanted to use Mi Wuya and Yan Yurou as alternatives! Lin Xun asked, “What are the two of you planning to do next?” Mi Wuya looked bleak, “What can we do when our fates are no longer in our hands...?” Yan Yurou also became dejected. Like Mi Wuya, her soul was also planted with the Total Destruction Invocation. Even though Lin Xun had saved them, they still could not get rid of Wen Shaoheng's control. This was also why from the time they had seen Lin Xun in Ferry City until the moment they had been saved, they hadn’t dared to talk to him using transmission. With Wen Shaoheng around, any voice transmission from them would be detected right away! When he heard this, Lin Xun's eyes flashed with killing intent, “It's a pity that I let him escape. Otherwise, I could definitely help lift the spell on you two.” Right at this moment. Mi Wuya and Yan Yurou suddenly let out a muffled grunt in unison. They seemed to be in pain as their expressions quickly changed, cloudy and uncertain as if they had encountered a great dilemma. Lin Xun asked, “What's wrong?” Mi Wuya and Yan Yurou exchanged a glance as they underwent an inner struggle, both looking extremely hesitant. Only after a long time did Mi Wuya make up his mind. He clenched his jaw and whispered, “Earlier, Miss Yurou and I received an explicit order from Wen Shaoheng, telling us to accompany Brother Lin no matter what, or else...we die.” Yan Yurou also nodded bitterly, “According to my speculation, Wen Shaoheng wants to use us to track you down, Brother Lin, so that he can find you whenever he wants to exact his revenge.” The sudden realization made Lin Xun laugh, “In that case, it's actually a good thing. I can't wait for him to come and receive his death.” Then, he was curious about something and asked, “Can you guys also sense Wen Shaoheng’s location?” Mi Wuya and Yan Yurou shook their heads. After a brief consideration, Lin Xun said, “Let’s not worry about it then. You two will act with me from now on, and when Wen Shaoheng comes to find us, I will take care of him and help you break your shackles.” Mi Wuya and Yan Yurou were both stunned, and then seemed ashamed and embarrassed. After all, they and Lin Xun had been opponents back on the Ancient Nebula Road. In the Ancient Immortal Forbidden Zone, they had even engaged in a deadly battle with each other! Despite that, Lin Xun currently wanted to stand up for them despite the huge risk. How could they not be ashamed? How could they not be touched? “The things in the past were ultimately the fights of our youth. Our positions were different then, so there was no right or wrong in what was done,” Lin Xun smilingly pacified them, putting their minds at ease. Next, Mi Wuya and Yan Yurou left the huge vortex and came to sit in the Heaven Slaughtering Dao Severing array with Little Five. Lin Xun, on the other hand, delayed no longer and went to the deepest area in the vortex. Here, a colorful rain of light and marvelous dao radiance filled the space. Upon a closer look, it was an Ancestral dao origin. Whether it was the volume or the quality, this Ancestral dao origin was far more exceptional than the one Lin Xun had refined before! Moreover, this Ancestral dao origin was covered by a precious alms bowl. Shining with an ancient luster of copper, the bowl gave off an indestructible aura. There was no need to guess to know that this treasure belonged to Wen Shaoheng. He had obviously shielded the Ancestral dao origin with the worry that their fight might accidentally damage it. Now, it turned out to be a nice additional benefit for Lin Xun. The ancient copper bowl was stowed away with a wave of Lin Xun's sleeve. As a mid spirit-grade Emperor treasure, it held extraordinary value. However, Lin Xun had casually put it away without inspection because it wasn't of much use to him. After some thought, he released all of his five dao bodies. Together, the six sat cross-legged around the Ancestral dao origin and began to meditate. Soon, a wave of dazzling dao light completely drowned Lin Xun and his dao bodies in what seemed like a dream. It was quiet on the floating land, but in the surrounding darkness, there were still quite a few figures who refused to leave. One of them seemed to finally run out of patience after a long time. With a sudden teleportation, he arrived above the floating continent. However, he was very cautious. Instead of approaching it, he summoned a brilliant flaming flying sword and chopped at the large array shrouding the huge vortex. The large array shook and sustained an imperceptible crack. Although it quickly closed and returned to its perfect state, the attacker still visibly relaxed. Gritting his teeth, he charged over. At the same time, many of the Emperor experts distributed in the shadows were also getting restless as they kept a close eye on the situation. It looked like all they needed was an opportunity to blatantly strike out!
