“Your ability to read other people’s memories is truly annoying, you know?” Yun Gongzhu said this to Zhou Yu with a shake of her head. “You’re right, but he forbade me from telling you, so keep quiet.”

Zhou Yu nodded at Yun Gongzhu. “Don’t worry, I won’t reveal those things to anyone, including this guy. Moreover, some of them are not only useful to you; they are also useful to him, and both of you will develop faster.”

“Hey! What are you two talking about?” Ling Yun abruptly asked them.

“Secret!”

“Tch!” Ling Yun suddenly stopped attacking those beasts and returned to his human form, so Zhou Yu and Yun Gongzhu immediately floated beside him. “How long will it take Sky and Star Cloud Realm cultivators to reach this tower? They set off at the same time as us, which means they have been on their way here for almost three months, so they should be almost here by now.”

“Well, that’s true.” Zhou Yu replied with a slight nod. “If my calculations are correct, they should arrive a little earlier or at the same time as Zhu Ling, especially since they had to face those space storms, and none of them had abilities with various elements like him. Why are you suddenly asking about them?”

“Many of them possess a high level of cultivation within the Emperor and Venerable God Realm, correct?” Both women nodded to Ling Yun. “Moreover, their numbers are quite large, especially considering the presence of Zhu Ling and Jin Sheng, and the beasts on the first to tenth floors are not their opponents. This is why I thought of another way to hinder those two people, and the only thing that came to mind was sending people from those two realms to upper floors so they wouldn’t get reinforcements to fight those beasts.”

After hearing that, Zhou Yu raised her eyebrows for a moment. “Actually, your idea is good, and I can send them directly to the 11th floor. However, I’m uncertain if Huang Lingzhu will approve of this plan. She could potentially kick me out and ban me from this tower, which would be a significant setback for you, particularly since I’m the only one who can assist you in reaching the top.”

“Sigh.” Ling Yun let out a heavy sigh before looking up, and then he shouted very loudly. “Huang Lingzhu! I know you can hear me! I want to talk to you, so I hope you can come down to this floor to talk!”

Ling Yun’s shout woke up those who were resting below, but some of them were confused, especially the demihumans, who still did not know about Huang Lingzhu.

As they were wondering about it, a bright golden light dazzled them, and none of them could see Ling Yun. Some of them tried to use their senses, but their efforts were in vain because the golden light restricted them.

Soon, Huang Lingzhu appeared in front of Ling Yun, but she did not come alone; the life goddess, Sheng Ming, accompanied him.

Ling Yun raised his eyebrows for a moment when he saw Sheng Ming, but he immediately recognized her identity and spoke to her directly. “Thank you for your help back then; otherwise, I will have to wait longer to reach the Emperor Realm, and Zhu Ling would have captured us by now.”

“Never mind it.” Sheng Ming replied with a dazzling smile on her face. “I did it not only for your sake, but for the sake of many people, especially since countless people will suffer if you die.”

“No matter what, I still have to thank you.” Ling Yun then turned into Huang Lingzhu. “You should have heard our previous conversation, right?”

Huang Lingzhu nodded to Ling Yun. “Do you know that your plan will disrupt the rules of this tower?”

“Didn’t you violate the rules of this tower by increasing the strength of the beasts? Starting from the first floor?” Instead, Ling Yun turned Huang Lingzhu’s question around. “Because of what you did, many cultivators had to return in disappointment, as they were not the opponents of those beasts, so it doesn’t matter if you change the rules one more time, right?”

Huang Lingzhu exhaled softly, then nodded to Ling Yun. “All right, I will fulfill your request, but this is the last time I will help you, and it would be better if you didn’t think about anything other than reaching the top of the tower as fast as possible, especially since time keeps ticking, so our time is running out. Anyway, this little spirit doesn’t need to do that, and I will transfer the people from both realms directly to the 11th floor, so Zhu Ling and Jing Shen have to work extra hard to reach your location.”

“What do you mean our time is running out?” However, Huang Lingzhu shook her head at Ling Yun, and she immediately took Sheng Ming out of their sight. “Do you know anything about it, Zhou Yu?”

“Huang Lingzhu already told me about it when I went to the star cloud realm a few months ago.” Ling Yun frowned after Zhou Yu answered him, especially since he didn’t say anything to him about it. “You don’t have to be angry, okay? For now, you just need to focus on the matter at hand, and I’ll tell you everything after we settle our issue with Zhu Ling.”

Ling Yun stared at Zhou Yu intensely for a while, but eventually gave up and transformed into his complete dragon form before starting to attack those beasts again. Yun Gongzhu continued to assist him with some new abilities that Yun Xian had taught her a few days ago.

Zhou Yu could only sigh in her heart, especially since she could sense Ling Yun’s anger for hiding the matter from him. I’m sorry; I can’t possibly tell you about that matter, especially since you yourself still don’t have the ability to defeat Zhu Ling. Otherwise, your concentration will be divided by so many matters, and you’ll seek strength through shortcuts, thereby jeopardizing both yourself and the universe.’

After resting for a full day, Xiao Xiao and the others immediately moved to assist Ling Yun, which made the cleaning of the 22nd floor go much more smoothly. After a full day, the beasts on that floor completely disappeared, so they rushed to the 23rd floor and began to clean that floor of the beasts.

Ling Xi’s group had already reached the 10th floor, and they were working hard to clean up the beasts on that floor as quickly as possible, especially since Long Feng’s group was moving at full strength.

After they fought for several hours, they finally managed to defeat the boss on that floor. After they had collected all the item drops and the next gate had also been opened, they immediately went up to the next floor, which was the first safe zone of the tower.

Ling Xi then asked them all to take a rest, especially since they had been fighting so hard in the past few days. She wanted them to refresh their minds first.

“What’s our next plan? Are we going to take them to the 11th floor and beyond?” Wang Tianshi suddenly asked Ling Xi.

However, Xuanyuan Xue’er answered Wang Tianshi first. “I don’t think we can do that, senior sister. The majority of their cultivation is still in the emperor realm, while the beasts on the 11th to 20th floors are in the saint realm. Moreover, those people from the supreme realm will reach this place soon, and some nature race leaders want to kill Mo Chen, so I’m afraid that they will do something to them.”

“Which of them wants to kill Mo Chen?” Wang Tianshi asked with a frown. freёweɓnovel.com

“Ban Zhuo is the centaur race leader, and You Ya is the fairy race leader.” Wang Tianshi immediately looked at Ling Xi. “However, the situation has changed, especially since the Long Clan, who came from the supreme realm, turned out to be Xiao Xiao’s family. They should no longer harbor the intention to kill my husband, so I believe we no longer need to worry about them.”

“Oh?” Wang Tianshi was surprised to hear that Xiao Xiao was a member of a clan that came from the supreme realm. “How could she be a member of that clan?”

“Long story short, she was sent to the lower realms by her parents for some reason, and she grew up there until she met Ling Yun, so she didn’t know her true identity until yesterday.” Wang Tianshi nodded in understanding before Ling Xi continued. “A few days ago, Zhou Yu, who was monitoring everyone in this tower, overheard their conversations and discovered that they were discussing Xiao Xiao. That’s why my husband asked my sister to bring the two of them to meet them, and it turned out that she was indeed a member of their clan, especially since the man named Long Feng had the same bloodline as her.”

After she thought about all that, Wang Tianshi then spoke to Ling Xi. “I think it would be better if we took them up to the 20th floor and let them to stay in the safe zone beyond that floor. However, we must still protect them, just in case those nature-race leaders still want to do something to Mo Chen.”
