The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud-Chapter 1024: The Exception

Chapter 1024: The Exception

When the streak of light appeared on the horizon, the entire mountain stream fell into complete silence.

Almost everyone sensed it.

Although the light arrived in an instant, it felt like an eternity to the onlookers.

This was especially true for those who had boldly announced what they would do if Su Jingzhen returned.

Their faces now looked as if they had truly eaten three hundred pounds of shit.

"Is this for real? I just made that boast a moment ago."

"Is that aura really Su Jingzhen?"

"I know! It must be Changyang Tiansha, who killed Su Jingzhen and is now mimicking his aura to humiliate the Divine Dan Sect. That must be it!"

Those who had wished for Su Jingzhen's death and had made grand claims earlier were now unwilling to believe that the aura they sensed was really Su Jingzhen.

Meanwhile, Ning Yao, Jian Ling, Shengana, and the others couldn't help but smile.

They were too familiar with Su Jingzhen.

The moment he appeared within the range of their divine consciousness, they knew that it was undoubtedly him.

"He really did it."

"But how did he do it? This is too incredible.

Changyang Tiansha was a mid-level cultivator of the Mystic Immortal Realm. With the support of the Martial God's Void Tower, his combat power was likely comparable to an ordinary True Immortal Realm Expert".

"Regardless, he's back, and that's what matters."

Jian Ling and the others were overwhelmed with excitement and joy. Soon, Su Jingzhen appeared in their line of sight.

"I'm back. Sorry to keep you waiting,"

Su Jingzhen said with a calm smile.

Before he could finish speaking, Ning Yao had already rushed into his arms.

"Teacher, is this real? You're back!"

Tears streamed down Ning Yao's face as she clung to Su Jingzhen.

He gently patted her head and said softly, "You're a grown-up girl now. Why are you still crying so easily? I'm fine, right?"

At his words, Ning Yao wiped away her tears and smiled through her sobs.

At the same time, Bai Suzhen turned into a streak of white light and wrapped around Su Jingzhen's shoulder without saying a word.

Su Jingzhen looked around at the worried faces and said with a smile, "Changyang Tiansha is dead. This is just a minor incident. Let's not dwell on it. For now, let's stick to our original plan and move forward."

Su Jingzhen had no intention of explaining the details of what had happened.

Hearing this, everyone was burning with curiosity, but they didn't dare to push any further.

Su Jingzhen then turned his gaze to Huo Huang, who was standing at the edge of the group, looking both curious and puzzled.

"Miss Huo Huang, let's continue with what we discussed earlier,"

Su Jingzhen said, clearly not planning on explaining anything to her either.

Huo Huang pouted but didn't say anything.

She simply continued to lead the way.

As far as the group was concerned, the earlier incident was nothing more than a minor hiccup.

In the entire cultivation world and the Emperor's Realm, only a handful of top experts knew that the treasure of the Martial God Hall had fallen into Su Jingzhen's hands.

As Su Jingzhen and his group continued their journey, the elders of various factions watching from a distant mountain peak were once again stunned.

The elders of the Divine Dan Sect, such as Shi Nian, were beaming with pride.

Su Jingzhen had once again performed a miracle, bringing great honor to their sect.

On the other hand, the elders of the Martial God Hall were confused.

Su Jingzhen's return undoubtedly meant the defeat of Changyang Tiansha.

However, they had previously declared in front of most of the powerful individuals of the cultivation world that even if Changyang Tiansha died, they wouldn't say a word.

After all, Changyang Tiansha had already developed inner demons and was essentially a discarded disciple to them.

Without resolving his inner demons, he held no value, so his death was of little consequence.

Although the elders of the Martial God Hall felt some regret, they weren't particularly sad.

Of course, if they knew that the Martial God Void Tower had fallen into Su Jingzhen's hands, their expressions would have been much more dramatic.

"We don't know exactly what happened this time, but it seems that your Divine Dan Sect just got lucky," the black-robed elder who had previously been arrogant in front of Shi Nian said reluctantly.

He then fell silent as Changyang Tiansha's failure to kill Su Jingzhen despite possessing the Martial God Void Tower was indeed a blow to the reputation of the Martial God Hall.

The rest of the trip was uneventful.

Under Huo Huang's guidance, Su Jingzhen and his group soon arrived at the core area of the former headquarters of the Divine Shepherd Sect.

Most of the people wandering around these regions were disciples of the Emperor Realm factions.

They seemed to have tacitly excluded the cultivation world's factions, and many of them harbored hostility toward Su Jingzhen and the Divine Dan Sect.

However, when they saw Huo Huang, they refrained from causing any trouble.

"Do you see the gap between the cultivation world and the emperor's realm now?"

Huo Huang said to Su Jingzhen, with a hint of pride in her expression.

Su Jingzhen smiled.

"That's just because the cultivation world hasn't fully merged with the Emperor Realm yet. Otherwise, your Emperor Realm factions would crumble just as easily."

Huo Huang was about to retort, but she suddenly remembered that the Great Zhou Immortal Sect had been completely annihilated by Su Jingzhen and his group.

She also remembered Su Jingzhen's miraculous survival against Changyang Tiansha.

She couldn't find a good angle to refute Su Jingzhen's words.

At the very least, during this event in the Divine Shepherd Realm, the Divine Dan Sect had become an exception, standing out even among the factions of the Emperor Realm.

In her mind, she wondered if those groups they had encountered earlier would have met the same fate as the Great Zhou Immortal Sect if she hadn't been there.

This thought made her expression grow serious.

Although she had indeed been entrusted by Little Ling to look after Su Jingzhen, her sect had also instructed her to suppress the cultivation world's factions as much as possible.

The Divine Shepherd Realm was basically a large stage for the competition between the cultivation world and the emperor's realm.

Blocking this core area was one of their tactics.

"This guy is too mysterious. If he really leads the factions of the Cultivation World to suppress the Emperor Realm this time, where does that leave me? Whose side am I on?"

As Huo Huang pondered this, her expression grew increasingly complicated.

Su Jingzhen looked at her and chuckled. "What is it? Are you mesmerized by my heroic appearance?"

Huo Huang rolled her eyes at him. "Let me make this clear. If any faction of the Emperor Realm insists on attacking you, I won't help you. Now, the Sword Land you're looking for is in the treasure vault ahead."
