In a dark cave, Hundun was still seriously healing his injuries, but only his right arm had recovered and could move normally. Unfortunately, he still hadn’t managed to reattach his left arm and two legs, especially since he needed a lot of things to restore his right arm, and he lacked them to reattach the others.

Moreover, the situation in the Earth Cloud Realm was still chaotic since Zhou Yu, Ling Tian, and Tian Huang destroyed their entire sect and clan, causing Gu Tianchong to not be able to provide him with enough resources for his recovery.

Even though several months had passed since that incident, Gu Tianchong and the others still couldn’t restore the situation in their realm, so they had to keep delaying their plan to attack the Sky Cloud Realm.

After all, their overall strength had dropped significantly with the deaths of their important people, and the security in that realm had also become tighter than before, especially after they learned about their relationship with the demons from the Netherworld Realm.

Hundun felt annoyed as he looked at his left arm and two legs lying on the ground in front of him. “Damn it! Three months have passed since my fight with Tang Chen, and I still haven’t recovered. Furthermore, all my plans have crumbled due to the carelessness of those idiots! My three brothers are also the same as me, and they still can’t recover because of his secret attack.”

Suddenly, Hundun felt a powerful aura moving towards him, and his expression turned serious as he realized the identity of the aura’s owner.

“Crap! How could that bastard return to this realm so quickly?” Hundun immediately picked up his left arm and both legs, and he rushed to leave the cave. However, a huge shockwave rolled out from outside, and it sent him flying backwards, sending him slamming into the wall behind him. ‘Damn it! His strength is much higher, and his speed is also much faster compared to our last fight.’

“Are you surprised by my arrival, Hundun?” The man walked in as he carried his black and red saber on his shoulder. “Do you think I will forget about you? As soon as I arrived in these upper realms, I immediately came here to look for you, and I will eliminate you once for all, so you will not be able to cause chaos ever again.”

“Tang Chen!” Hundun furiously shouted as he floated before him. “If you are really a man, wait for me to recover from my injury, and we can fight again like before.”

“Hahaha!” Tang Chen laughed upon hearing that. “I don’t have to act like a man to face an evil creature like you, and I will use every opportunity before my eyes to kill you. Anyway, I’m sure your three brothers still haven’t recovered from my attack a few months ago, right? This way, you’re all alone, so I will end your life before I go looking for them, and I will send them after you.”

“Tch!” However, both of them were shocked by an aura that was stronger than theirs, and neither of them recognized its owner. Moreover, the owner of the aura also had extremely high speed, and Hundun used that to intimidate Tang Chen. “Hahaha! Unfortunately, you talk too much, and my protector has now arrived, so you will never be able to kill me.

Instead, you will be the one who dies in his hands, and he will also destroy the Star Cloud Realm after killing you.”

“Hmm?” Tang Chen frowned and turned to face the cave exit, but he did not release his sense from Hundun, and he also released his cultivation that was already at the immortal king level. ‘This person is much stronger than me, and his cultivation is that of the immortal emperor.

Moreover, he appears to have broken through to that stage a long time ago, so he is stronger than this ugly pig and his three brothers.’

“Hey! Who did you say was your protector?”

Tang Chen froze in his spot after hearing the man’s voice from behind him, and Hundun was also completely shocked to see the man suddenly standing between the two of them without them realizing it, causing them to shout the same thing in their hearts. ‘His speed is freaking so fast! We couldn’t even see his movements!’

*Crack… Crack…*

Countless ice flowers appeared inside the cave in an instant, and the entire wall froze, making the already chilly cave even colder.

Hundun’s expression turned to horror after seeing his old enemy, and his eyes widened as he stuttered. “Feng… Feng Huang! How… how can you still be alive? I ..

. I remember exactly when I gave you that final attack, so you should be dead by now!”

“Haha.” Feng Huang laughed at Hundun’s words. “You’re right, ugly pig. I should have died from your final attack, but fate had other plans by sending my husband to save me, and he saved me from death. Even so, my injuries from your attack back then have yet to recover, and I still have to rely on the cold in the frostmoon domain to keep my injuries from getting worse.”

Hearing that, Hundun immediately looked at Long Tianhuo, who was standing beside Feng Huang’s ice coffin. ‘A flame dragon? Moreover, his cultivation is at the same level as mine and my three brothers, but his aura is clearly much stronger than ours, and he might break through to the immortal supreme soon.’

“Feng Huang? Aren’t you one of the phoenix race’s ancestors?” Tang Chen inquired as he walked beside them.

Feng Huang nodded at Tang Chen. “You’re right; I am indeed one of their ancestors, but my kin has become extinct because of this ugly pig and his three brothers. Fortunately, I met my husband, and there are two other ice phoenixes born from our marriage.”

“I see.” Tang Chen nodded in understanding. “That’s good! This way, the ice phoenix race will not become extinct, and your race will return in the future through their descendants.”

“Hehe.” Feng Huang chuckled before asking back. “Are you Tang Chen? I heard about you from my daughter and Ling Yun, but they told me that you had already ascended to our realm, so I didn’t expect to meet you here.”

“Hahaha.” Tang Chen laughed in response to her words. “My wife and descendants are still living in these upper realms, and I enjoy life in the Star Cloud Realm more, so I decided to come back here. However, I am really surprised to hear that you know Ling Yun; does that mean your daughter is one of his wives?”

“Yes.” Feng Huang nodded to Tang Chen, and she handed him a token with an ice phoenix carving. “Since one of your direct descendants is Ling Yun’s wife, that means we are family.”

In addition to Feng Huang, Long Tianhuo also tossed a token, which Tang Chen immediately caught. “My name is Long Tianhuo, the leader of the thousand-beast realm. Even though you are a human, you are our family, so you don’t have to be shy to come to our realm within the supreme realm.

Even if you want to bring your family to live there, we will welcome you with open arms, and none of them will dare question my decision.”

“Thank you for these tokens.” Tang Chen immediately put away the two, but he then glanced at Hundun, who felt even more cornered after listening to their conversation. “Honestly, I’ve long thought about bringing my family to the supreme realm, but this pig and his brothers are still threatening these upper realms, so I still find it difficult to move there and leave the people in my realm.

That’s why I came here to eliminate him, and I will kill the other three soon.”

“Do you know the whereabouts of Qiong Qi, Tao Tie, and Tao Wu?” Feng Huang asked in surprise.

“Yes.” Since Feng Huang was in the ice coffin, Tang Chen couldn’t share that information with her, so he shared it with Long Tianhuo. “In fact, I already knew their location since I moved to these upper realms, but I still didn’t have the strength to attack them back then, so I kept their hiding place to myself.

However, the tables have turned now, and they are still badly injured by my attack, so I will immediately move to their place after this.”

“In that case, my husband and I will join you, and we can reach their place in no time.” Feng Huang then looked at Hundun. “Husband, please help me cripple this ugly pig; you can also take his beast core for me.”

‘Fuck! I won’t let myself fall into their hands.’ Hundun cursed loudly before trying to detonate his beast and cultivation cores.

Unfortunately, Long Tianhuo immediately made a move and stopped Hundun’s action, and he crippled his cultivation first.

After that, Long Tianhuo took Hundun’s beast core out of his body, followed by Feng Huang, who immediately froze his entire body so he would not die from it.

Tang Chen smiled wryly at Long Tianhuo’s actions, especially since he wouldn’t be able to perform such a feat with his current cultivation. “Brother, your strength and speed are truly extraordinary, and I still have a lot to learn from you.”

“Hahaha.” Long Tianhuo laughed as he gave Hundun’s beast core to his wife. “Brother Chen, I have cultivated much longer than you, so you don’t need to praise me. Instead, I am the one who is in awe of you, especially since you are still so young, yet you have already managed to reach the immortal king, something I could not do in my youth.”
