(Within the Screen In the Sky)
Teng Gang and the others were imprisoned in the forbidden place of the Heavenly Palace with their cultivation sealed. They were unconscious at this moment.
"Teng Gang, Zhuo Yang, Xu Jingtian, and Zhao Ling'er, by order of the Heavenly Emperor, be immediately put into the Celestial Divine furnace."
Several Heavenly Palace Generals, holding the former Heavenly Emperor's decree, entered the forbidden land and prepared to take away Teng Gang and the others.
But just as they were about to leave, they heard the sound of a click.
Above this forbidden land, a huge crack suddenly appeared.
The crack expanded and turned into a spatial channel.
Lin Yan, with an expressionless face, walked out of it.
"Lin Yan, what do you want?" The Heavenly Palace Battle Generals immediately recognized Lin Yan and said angrily.
Seeing Lin Yan trespassing into the forbidden place of the Heavenly Palace without permission, they knew Lin Yan came here with no good intention.
Lin Yan stared at these Battle Generals below and, without saying a word, appeared beside them in one step.
Reaching out, Lin Yan grabbed all four of them, Teng Gang and Zhao Ling'er, into his hands, and only then did he shake his head, "Tell the Heavenly Emperor, I'll take them away first."
Grabbing the four, Lin Yan re-stepped onto the space, he had torn apart and disappeared.
These remaining Heavenly Palace Battle Generals stared wide-eyed for a moment before they eagerly said, "Quickly go and report the news of Lin Yan defecting the Heavenly Palace to His Highness Heavenly Emperor."
Taking prisoners from within the forbidden area of the Heavenly Palace without permission was tantamount to treason in the Heavenly Palace.
…
Dumbfounded!
Looking at the screen above his head, Lin Feng was dumbfounded.
Just now, he had made such wonderful speculation, and even he felt that he was a genius in this regard.
But who would have thought something was wrong from the very beginning?
Weren't Teng Gang and the rest locked up in the forbidden place of the Heavenly Palace?
It wasn't until later when the misunderstanding was lifted, that they were released, right?
How did this turn out to be rescued by the Heavenly Emperor?
If that was the case, then his speculation was wrong from the very beginning.
"Did Teng Gang lie to us?" Lin Feng couldn't help but glance at Teng Gang.
But seeing Teng Gang's face filled with dismay, he seemed to have not known about the Heavenly Emperor saving them.
Lin Feng, speechless, could only raise his head and continue to look at the screen above his head.
…
(Within the Screen In the Sky)
The Battle Generals didn't need to report to the former Heavenly Emperor as they had already sensed Lin Yan entering the forbidden land without permission.
With a pale face, the former Heavenly Emperor and several immortals teleported to the Heavenly Palace in one step.
"Lin Yan, you've let me down too much."
With a cold snort, the former Heavenly Emperor's figure suddenly appeared in front of Lin Yan, who had just fled from the Heavenly Palace.
"Your Highness… I'm sorry."
Lin Yan faintly shook his head, and a secret spatial pattern appeared on his body, and he immediately moved away.
But before he started to move, all the mysterious spatial patterns on his body, in an instant, were dispersed into thin air.
Another immortal, who appeared before him, blocked his way, "Lin Yan, you are the number one battle general of the Heavenly Palace. Have you thought clearly about the consequences of snatching people from the forbidden land?"
As this immortal shouted coldly in anger, one by one, many immortal's experts surrounded Lin Yan.
At this moment, several top immortal experts from the Heavenly Palace revealed themselves around Lin Yan and blocked his way.
The former Heavenly Emperor walked over with a pained face, "Lin Yan, you have a great future. This matter has absolutely nothing to do with you. I would no longer be polite if you insist on forcibly taking them away."
Lin Yan's gaze swept over the many immortals around and his eyes finally landed on the former Heavenly Emperor.
"Your Highness… I'm sorry."
The former Heavenly Emperor's face turned ugly, and he started to fume, "Why? Lin Yan, could it be that you had something to do with this matter when Teng Gang and the others killed the Qian Demon Hunting Squad?"
"It has nothing to do with me. I'm not sure what's going on either."
Lin Yan shook his head and said, "But they call me big brother. I will always be their big brother. As a big brother, I always have to care for the younger siblings…."
With his voice lowered by a few points, Lin Yan continued, "Moreover, they keep saying that this matter has nothing to do with them …As their big brother, if even I don't believe them, then who will believe them? …so I have to take them away and find out the truth."
Lin Yan's words angered the Captain of the 'Qian' Demon Squad, and he sternly shouted, "Lin Yan, the truth is already out. Why do you persist in your obsession?"
Glancing at this immortal, Lin Yan, with his hand, cut open the space and put Teng Gang and the others inside.
Only then did he look at the former Heavenly Emperor and the others.
There were six immortals surrounding them in groups from all sides.
The powerful aura felt like even space was overwhelmed by its pressure, emitting a burst of low sound. The wind whistled toward Lin Yan, blowing his robe.
Facing the six immortals directly, Lin Yan said softly, "then… let's fight!"
…
"...But they call me big brother. I will always be their big brother. As a big brother, I always have to care for the younger siblings…."
Looking at the screen above his head and watching Lin Yan alone facing the six immortals with a straight face for their sake, Teng Gang, who had always had a stern look at this moment, couldn't help but tear up.
"Big brother, big brother …we also always want to call you big brother. We had always treated you as one, but you weren't the same back then."
A hissing voice came out of Teng Gang's mouth.
The people around Teng Gang heaved a sigh in their hearts seeing him.
Indeed, if they had been replaced by a brother who was willing to fight for them, they too would be moved to tears.
Unfortunately, the Heavenly Emperor changed. He wasn't the same as he was then.
They have once sworn brothers but now parted ways and even turned against each other.
The bonds of brotherhood they shared became weak.
…
Compared to Lin Feng and other people's sighs, the vast majority of cultivators on the Lingxuan continent now looked at the screen over their heads with their eyes shining.
The current and former Heavenly Emperors were dueling, which was a rare scene to witness.
"At the time of the former Heavenly Emperor's reign, the Heavenly Palace was only one of the many powers on the Lingxuan Continent, so obviously, the former Heavenly Emperor's strength should be very average."
"Indeed, the reason why the Heavenly Palace later became so strong pressured the Lingxuan Continent's major sects for tens of thousands of years. They didn't dare raise their heads because of the current Heavenly Emperor."
"Then isn't the former Heavenly Emperor going to be crushed in this battle? Wouldn't this be one-sided?"
"It's not easy to say. Firstly, the former Heavenly Emperor has helpers around him. Secondly, our present Heavenly Emperor is now only in the Half-Step Immortal Realm, which is too big a difference compared to an old immortal like the former Heavenly Emperor."
…
Everyone began to discuss the outcome of this battle.
It was the time for the current Heavenly Emperor to kill the former Heavenly Emperor in public, after all.
…
(Within the Screen In the Sky)
Lin Yan was facing six immortals alone. Moreover, these six immortals were the topmost experts of the Heavenly Palace.
If one of them was placed in the Lingxuan Continent, they were all considered powerful existences.
Before they approached, a circle of law power continuously rushed towards Lin Yan like a circle of waves.
Death, destruction, shattering, chaos…
The power was full of destruction and almost tore Lin Yan's body into pieces.
This was still the effect of them not exerting their full strength.
The former Heavenly Emperor's face was blue. He still wanted to give Lin Yan a chance, "Lin Yan, I'll say it one last time, hand them over, and we can pretend that nothing ever happened."
Lin Yan didn't speak, and the law power started to emerge from his body.
Although he wasn't a True Immortal, Half-step immortal, the law power he mastered was just as strong as one.
Not to mention, Lin Yan had killed several Immortals when he was at half-step Immortal Realm.
Seeing Lin Yan persist, the former Heavenly Emperor finally stopped being soft-hearted.
"Make a move, Attack Lin Yan and try… not to kill him."
The other five immortals received the order from the former Heavenly Emperor, their figures flashed, and they took out various immortal weapons and surrounded Lin Yan.
Standing aside, the former Heavenly Emperor watched the battle before him with cold eyes.
Lin Yan's strength frightened him.
With his Half-step Immortal Realm, he could resist the attacks of five immortals.
But the more he thought, the sadder the former Heavenly Emperor felt.
Lin Yan should have been the future of the Heavenly Palace, but after this battle today, this genius of the Heavenly Palace, he was afraid, would have to fall entirely.
Standing on the sidelines watching the battle for a long time and concluding that even five immortals had no way to take down Lin Yan, the former Heavenly Emperor couldn't sit still.
An aura of an immortal rose from his body.
This aura gradually stepped into the Half-step Eternal Realm and then to the Eternal Realm.
It was clear that the former Heavenly Emperor had already ascended to the Eternal Realm from the Half-Step Eternal Realm he was.
His combat strength was already far beyond that of an Immortal.
