Qingyue Gate.

The huge storm caused by Du Yuanqing's death has basically subsided after several months of settling.

The gate has returned to its former tranquility.

But what most disciples don't know is that an even bigger storm is sweeping through the upper levels of the sect.

The main peak of the sect.

Hanhai hurriedly arrived at Lu Changge's residence. After passing through the formation outside, he quickly entered.

As soon as he entered, he urgently said, "Young Master Lu..."

Lu Changge raised his hand, "I already know."

"Please have a seat."

Hanhai sat down and said anxiously, "Young Master Lu, it seems that we have underestimated Tang Tian's abilities."

"Three Profound Immortals, one Golden Immortal!"

"They didn't even have a chance to escape. The soul lamps were extinguished at the same time, this is simply..."

"I find it hard to believe that Tang Tian could do such a thing."

Lu Changge shook his head, "I don't believe it either."

"According to our investigation of Tang Tian, he doesn't have any strong background. The only person he is close to is Chi Yuan."

"And with Chi Yuan's abilities, it's absolutely impossible for him to leave behind a Golden Immortal, especially since they are from the War God Temple."

Hanhai said, "But their deaths are a fact."

"And, Tianyangsheng left with the purpose of killing Tang Tian, we both know that..."

Lu Changge raised his hand to stop him from continuing.

After thinking for a while, he said, "When things go against the norm, there must be something strange."

"Perhaps there are some things that we didn't anticipate, or perhaps it really wasn't Tang Tian's doing."

"But this matter is already beyond our control, Yu Qin..."

Lu Changge signaled to Hanhai with his eyes, and Hanhai immediately understood his meaning.

For safety reasons, it's better not to let others investigate their whereabouts.

"So what should we do next?"

"Tang Tian seems to be more troublesome than we imagined."

Hanhai was a little panicked. He couldn't afford to offend someone who could kill a Golden Immortal.

Lu Changge shook his head, reassuring him.

"This matter has a huge impact, the War God Temple will definitely investigate it personally."

"Whether it was Tang Tian's doing or not, it will be known sooner or later."

"Let's wait for the results."

"But Tianyangsheng's sudden death will definitely cause chaos in the main peak. We need to seize this opportunity to further expand our influence."

Hanhai nodded.

Let's wait for the results for now.

But he really finds it hard to believe that Tang Tian could do such a thing.

...

Elder Dazhang's residence.

Li Tianhua and Chi Yuan sat together, their expressions very serious. It seems that Chi Yuan is communicating with someone remotely.

After a while, Chi Yuan looked up.

"Did you make contact?"

Li Tianhua asked quickly.

Chi Yuan nodded, "Tang Tian is safe and sound, on his way back to the sect."

"But he's moving slowly, it will probably take about ten days."

Li Tianhua asked, "And about that matter..."

Chi Yuan shook his head, "He denied it."

"Tang Tian said that after I left, he stayed in Liuli City for a few more days, and then took a different route back to the sect."

"From the beginning until now, he hasn't encountered anyone from Tianyangsheng or the War God Temple."

Li Tianhua frowned.

"Do you think he's telling the truth?"

Chi Yuan thought for a moment and said, "From his reaction, it doesn't seem like he's lying."

"And he really doesn't have the ability to kill a Golden Immortal, it's too absurd."

"Unless there is a more powerful existence involved."

"But..."

Chí Yuán suddenly stood up, spreading his hands and laughing, "What does it matter if it's him?"

"As long as Tang Tian is alive."

"Whether the people from the War God Temple live or die, it's none of my business~"

After learning that Tang Tian was safe and sound, Chí Yuán visibly relaxed, the joy on his face completely disappearing.

Li Tianhua helplessly said, "With the style of the War God Temple, they definitely won't easily let this matter go."

"If they find out something, even if Tang Tian is inside the Qingyue Gate, it won't be easy for him to protect himself."

Chí Yuán smirked, "I'm more optimistic about this than you are."

"If it really was Tang Tian, based on what I know about him, he must have been well-prepared."

"Otherwise, he wouldn't have leisurely returned to the Qingyue Gate."

After saying that, Chí Yuán hummed a cheerful tune and walked away.

Watching Chí Yuán recover, Li Tianhua also smiled helplessly.

"The cost of repairing the gate will be on your head!"

...

Nanfeng.

Mò Xiāoxiāo sat under a pavilion, surrounded by several powerful figures.

Judging from their attire, they should all be people from the Mò family.

They were here to protect Mò Xiāoxiāo's safety.

At this moment, she was sitting with Yǐn Kē and another Mò family member.

"This Tang Tian really surprises people."

The Mò family member said leisurely.

Mò Xiāoxiāo sighed, "I didn't expect Tang Tian to actually escape the pursuit of Tiān Yǎngshēng."

"There's likely a powerful supporter behind him that we don't know about."

The Mò family member smiled and said, "Isn't this perfect? Originally, the family had doubts about your decision, thinking that Tang Tian didn't have enough value for the family to operate in Tiānfǔ."

"Now, no one will say anything."

Mò Xiāoxiāo nodded.

But soon, she changed the topic, "Brother, it's still the same as what I said to you before."

"Tang Tian and I, and the Mò family, have an equal relationship. We should treat each other based on the principles of equality and mutual benefit."

"We must not underestimate him for other reasons."

The Mò family member nodded, "Don't worry, I will arrange it."

"I have always trusted your judgment."

"But everything depends on him safely escaping the investigation of the War God Temple."

Mò Xiāoxiāo played with the wine cup in her hand and then drank it all in one gulp.

"I believe in him."

...

Just as Mò Xiāoxiāo, Chí Yuán, and Lù Chánggē thought, the deaths of Tiān Yǎngshēng and several Immortal Realm powerhouses instantly enraged the War God Temple.

The Vice Hall Master personally took action and quickly found the place where Tiān Yǎngshēng and the others died.

The scene there shocked them, as if they had been ravaged by some ancient ferocious beast.

However, after a meticulous investigation, they did not find any clues about the culprit.

Before leaving, the culprit had erased all traces, even the Immortal Venerables couldn't find anything.

Helpless, they could only go to the Qingyue Gate and start the investigation from scratch.

Soon, they learned about Tiān Yǎngshēng's purpose for leaving this time.

But when they learned that Tang Tian was just a Mortal Realm cultivator, the investigation was once again hindered.

No one believed that a Mortal Realm cultivator could prevent three Profound Immortals and one Golden Immortal from even having a chance to escape.

This kind of monster doesn't even exist in the Cloud Summit Heavenly Mansion.

Finally, the War God Temple decided to interrogate Tang Tian thoroughly after his return.

But this request was strongly opposed by the higher-ups of the Qingyue Gate.

"Without evidence, what right do you have to interrogate our disciples?"

Even the War God Temple couldn't act recklessly. Everyone is under the same Heavenly Mansion, and in principle, they are equal.

Helpless, the War God Temple had to give up on this idea.

But they didn't give up, they had to investigate thoroughly before they would give up.

However, Chí Yuán and the others understood that since no clues were found at the location of Tiān Yǎngshēng's death, Tang Tian must have been safe and sound.

This storm cannot be stirred up.

And in this situation, Tang Tian finally returned to the Qingyue Gate.
