"Tai Qing has already admitted fault, what more do you want?" Chen Yi said solemnly.
"Haha, admitted fault?" Yun Zheyue looked at Chen Yi, her beautiful eyes chilling. "Tai Qing almost caused a catastrophe today, nearly leading everyone here to their demise. Can a mere 'admitted fault' make up for it?"
Yun Zheyue was determined to establish authority, wanting to kill one to warn a hundred, her stance unwavering, with no room for compromise.
"Zhao Yue, we've been old friends for many years, can't you give me some face?" Chen Yi looked at Yun Zheyue and asked.
Chen Yi was a Saintly Great Power, also the offered of the Tai Family, considered a peerless overlord.
Yun Zheyue hadn't proven the path to sainthood, so he didn't need to lower himself, bending to requests.
Yet, Yun Zheyue's identity was too special; she was Huaxia's spokesperson, backed by Huaxia's nine spirits, forcing Chen Yi to exercise extreme caution and humble himself, softly asking for reconciliation.
"Chen Yi, you're truly shameless!" Yun Zheyue said coldly. "We do know each other, but only a few times we've met. Where is the talk of friendship?"
"If you wish me to let Tai Qing go, you can directly plead instead of playing the relationship card!" Yun Zheyue looked at Chen Yi, annoyed.
"…"
When Chen Yi first met Yun Zheyue, he was instantly stunned by her heavenly beauty, lowering himself to pursue her.
However, Yun Zheyue was dedicated to her cultivation, wholly detached from passion, how could she accept his love?
Thus, facing Chen Yi's fervent pursuit, Yun Zheyue had always ignored it!
The friendship Chen Yi spoke of was entirely his own wishful thinking!
"Alright, today's matter was Tai Qing's mistake, still, Dragon Chief, I implore you to show mercy and spare her once!"
Coldly reprimanded by Yun Zheyue, Chen Yi felt somewhat disgraced, even his tone lost its friendliness.
"You ask me to release her just because you ask?" Yun Zheyue looked at Chen Yi with a cold smile.
"What do you want then?" Chen Yi said. "Do you really intend to act against me, truly suppress me?"
Yun Zheyue carried an intimidating presence, ready to stir up a storm, which made Chen Yi subtly displeased.
Yun Zheyue was merely an Other Shore Grand Master, whereas he was an invincible Saint, a large gap existed between them.
If not for Yun Zheyue representing Huaxia, supported by Huaxia's nine spirits, she wouldn't even be qualified to converse with him.
Besides, Chen Yi lowered himself out of reminiscence of past affections.
Chen Yi truly liked Yun Zheyue, whether in the past or now, he liked this woman!
Yet, Chen Yi considered past affections and didn't wish to break relations, but Yun Zheyue was relentless, making Chen Yi inwardly furious—an obstinate woman!
"Chen Yi, your words are futile, Tai Qing broke the order and must be punished!" Yun Zheyue spoke firmly and decisively, showing no intention of forgiveness.
"You are Huaxia's Guardian, protecting this land!" Chen Yi said. "Tai Qing is a citizen of Huaxia, will you hunt her down to the end?"
"I protect everyone, not just one or two people!" Yun Zheyue said.
"Moreover, there's a saying that fits well: 'A gathering of dragons and snakes!'"
"Huaxia's population is vast, inevitably there will be bad apples. My purpose is to eliminate the bad ones!"
"Tai Qing violated the rule and order, trying to stir up chaos in Huaxia. I must suppress her as an example!"
"Chen Yi, if you dare to stop me, you are waging war against me, against the whole of Huaxia!"
Yun Zheyue was Huaxia's Guardian God, holding the mandate of righteousness. Even as a sage among men, Chen Yi couldn't match Yun Zheyue's legitimacy.
"Do you truly intend this?" Chen Yi asked coldly.
"My stance has never changed, it's to eradicate heresy!" Yun Zheyue said. "You are intent on stopping me, trying to shelter the root of trouble, then don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Tai Qing's mistake was already made, fundamentally unforgivable, otherwise everyone might follow suit, leading Huaxia into chaos!
Moreover, various families were frequently acting up, causing instability in Huaxia! Yun Zheyue intended to strike fear into them, now was a great opportunity!
Hence, Yun Zheyue couldn't budge, or she would lose authority, making it difficult to assert her dominance again.
"Tai Qing was just young and reckless, the Tai Family also has no intention of causing harm, don't go overboard!"
Yun Zheyue's aggressive approach made Chen Yi's expression change repeatedly, filled with annoyance.
Chen Yi's status was so aloof, no matter where he went, he was the most dazzling presence, admired by countless people.
Yet, Yun Zheyue not only showed him no face, she even intended to act against him, how could Chen Yi endure?
"You offer only an explanation to have me release her, who do you think you are?" Yun Zheyue suddenly laughed, revealing a mocking look.
"You!"
A hint of mockery from Yun Zheyue deeply provoked Chen Yi, making him verge on madness.
"Is there anything left to say between us?" Yun Zheyue said. "I want to kill, you want to save; we are destined for conflict!"
"We are destined to not reconcile; you are a supreme saint, understanding all kinds of karma, why can't you see it?" Yun Zheyue asked.
"Yun Zheyue, I'm considerate of past affections, hence why I lowered myself, unwilling to become your enemy!" Chen Yi said. "However, my patience has limits. If you continue to be aggressive, I will not be polite!"
"When did we ever have past affections?" Yun Zheyue's eyes narrowed.
"Didn't we?" Chen Yi said. "Have you forgotten back then, when I pursued you, willing to be like a beast of burden…"
"Chen Yi, you're asking to die!"
Upon hearing Chen Yi mention the past, Yun Zheyue immediately became furious.
Indeed, Chen Yi liked her back then, even pursued her, stayed by her side!
However, Yun Zheyue never had the slightest sentiment towards Chen Yi's pursuit, even completely ignoring it.
Moreover, those were past events from years ago, completely forgotten by Yun Zheyue, but Chen Yi mentioned them again, stirring her memories, casting a shadow over Yun Zheyue's heart.
Times have changed; Yun Zheyue has settled down and even has a daughter, she is practically married now.
Now that Chen Yi jumped out to bring up past matters, it was as if he intended to ruin her happiness, how could Yun Zheyue not be furious?
"Yun Zheyue, what do you intend to do?" Chen Yi shouted.
Yun Zheyue was raging with fury, very unstable, showing every intention of making a move, which startled Chen Yi.
Yun Zheyue's cultivation was quite formidable, but Chen Yi was not afraid; what he feared were the Nine Saints of Huaxia and those few reclusive old saints!
"Kill you!"
Yun Zheyue's eyes were fierce, sweeping one hand, shaking the long sky, causing waves to surge in this place.
"Azure Dragon Great Immortal Skill!"
"Myriad Dragons Great Immortal Skill!"
"Soaring Dragon Great Immortal Skill!"
In an instant, three immortal skills swept across the sky, pressing down on Chen Yi and Tai Qing.
"Roar!"
"Roar!"
"Roar!"
At this moment, endless dragon shadows burst forth from the void, engulfing where Chen Yi and Tai Qing stood.
"What the hell is going on!"
Yun Zheyue performed the three Great Immortal Skills of the Dragon Clan, manifesting endless dragon-like shadows, turning this place into a dragon's nest, shocking everyone.
"Isn't this a movie shoot?"
Some people, looking at the sky full of dragon shadows, were filled with disbelief, feeling as if they were in a fantasy.
"Are these dragons real?" someone exclaimed in shock, looking at the sky." Each dragon appears vivid and alive, as if they truly exist, such an effect cannot be achieved with added special effects, can it?"
"This woman is too powerful, almost like a deity, making me unable to resist the urge to worship!"
"This is the legendary accomplished sage, like the immortals living in the mortal world!"
The three Great Immortal Skills were too invincible, exploding terrifyingly upon being displayed, tens of thousands of dragon shadows soared to the sky, leaving everyone deeply shaken.
"What is this Divine Skill?"
Yun Zheyue suddenly exploded with invincibility, causing Chen Yi's face to drastically change, an indescribable shock.
Chen Yi was a strongman of the Saint Realm, coexistent with heaven and earth, immortal and indestructible, supposedly accustomed to storms, never losing composure.
However, when the three Great Immortal Skills of the Dragon Clan were unleashed, Chen Yi could no longer remain calm, his face filled with horror.
A vast flood of dragons surged forth with a tendency to suppress heaven and earth, even Chen Yi felt a sense of crisis, a feeling of being trapped and facing death!
"Mr. Chen, please save me!"
At this moment, Tai Qing was engulfed by thousands of dragons, shrieking in terror.
The undulating dragons nearly caught her on the storm's edge, hard to imagine the power of this skill.
Moreover, Tai Qing attempted to cross the void to leave, but the celestial signs here were chaotic, and the void continuously collapsed, making it nearly impossible for her to escape!
Tai Qing was truly scared, terrified, Yun Zheyue was just too terrifying.
Earlier, Tai Qing was easily suppressed by Yun Zheyue, and there was some discontent in her heart, thinking of taking revenge in the future.
However, when Yun Zheyue performed the Divine Arts, the appearance of thousands of dragons, shaking the heavens and the earth, replaced Tai Qing's thoughts with panic, forgetting about revenge.
Yun Zheyue was truly too strong, so strong that she seemed not like a human, but a deity!
The most powerful figure in Tai Qing's heart was her brother Tai Li! Yet, the current strength of Yun Zheyue was not weaker than Tai Li, leaving Tai Qing in confusion, with an indescribable feeling.
"Tai Qing, do not shift positions, I'll get you out of here!"
Chen Yi shouted violently, the power of the Saint Path surged from his body, forming a celestial canopy, blocking the sky full of divine dragons.
"Boom!"
Chen Yi launched a punch across, raising an endless storm, striking towards the dome, causing the heavens and earth to shake slightly.
"Roar!"
This punch's power was earth-shattering, dispersing countless dragon shadows, clearing a path to the azure sky.
"A Saint?" Yun Zheyue looked at Chen Yi, her eyes grew cold." This is my first time fighting a Saint, I wonder if I can achieve the grand feat of slaying a Saint!"
"Roar!"
A gigantic dragon revealed itself on the clouds, diving down towards Chen Yi with its mouth open, attempting to swallow him.
"Heaven protect me, Dao favor me, Grand Universe Movement!"
Chen Yi, an unparalleled Saint, wielded methods so earth-shattering that even a casual move could be an invincible technique.
A curtain of light descended from the heavens, protecting him from being devoured by the giant dragon.
Moreover, he unleashed void power in his hands, attempting to envelop Tai Qing and take her away from this realm.
"Can you escape?"
Yun Zheyue moved through the aura-laden dust, draped in dragon energy which transformed into golden dragons, surging towards Chen Yi and Tai Qing, attempting to confine them to this place.
