In the rest area of the Deep Blue, the Omegas watched this group of uninvited guests coldly, their gazes growing increasingly hostile. After all, they were proud geniuses who had never been mocked like this before.

No one had ever dared to say that the Omegas were weak.

Of course, some of the Omegas with deep backgrounds also knew the origins of these black-robed figures.

Lishan, Heavenly Destiny Pavilion.

Gu Jianlin held the unruly child in his hand, examining the group and analyzing their features.

Suddenly, the Black Qilin in his mind opened its blazing golden eyes, and an eerie hallucination appeared before him. The black-robed girl leading the group seemed to change her appearance.

Half of her face was tender and beautiful, while the other half was pale as jade, clearly belonging to someone else.

Her hair was black and white interwoven, her left eye inky black like ink, her right eye shining brilliantly like starlight.

It felt as if two people had been forcibly stitched together—a chilling sight.

This person undeniably carried the scent of humanity alongside the aura of the Ancient God Clan.

But the fusion wasn't quite perfect; it was jarring.

The last time Gu Jianlin had seen something this bizarre, it was Thunder.

However, Thunder was different from her.

Because Thunder's white-haired and red-haired states were both part of the same face.

And part of the same individual.

Only their demeanor and hair color underwent subtle changes, akin to split personalities.

Yet this girl before him felt unnervingly mismatched.

"Hey? Master, you've come!"

Ji Xiaoyu, still held by Gu Jianlin, had not been harmed by the previous attack but was indignant nonetheless. "Hmph, what Master! I clearly knew that person, she was from the Tang Family back then—Tang Yun! Later she was sent somewhere unknown. We've had grudges since then, and now she's pretending not to know me. Infuriating!"

The girl named Tang Yun narrowed her eyes; the black-robed figures behind her remained silent.

"Apologies, everyone. Ji Xiaoyu is the Little Princess of the Ji Family, and the President's direct granddaughter."

Mu Qingyou deliberately emphasized her last sentence.

"Ji Family, Ji Xiaoyu?"

The girl fell silent for a moment before murmuring to herself, "I seem to vaguely remember someone like that. But it doesn't matter anymore. I'm no longer who I used to be. We've come here solely to assist in capturing the Kui Dragon Ancestor. Irrelevant people, step aside immediately—we're looking for a very important individual."

She pulled a painting from the backpack slung over her shoulder and unfolded it in front of the group. The stark ink strokes depicted an eerie skeleton, one on the verge of Dragon Transformation, kneeling in the snow.

Gu Jianlin put the Little Princess down.

He couldn't help but be surprised when he saw the painting.

Because it depicted the ancestor he had killed back in the Sea of Eternal Life.

"This ancestor's name is Tai Zhuo, a member of the Candle Dragon Clan, a royal among nobles. In the divine race created by Kui, Tai Zhuo held an exceptionally high status, comparable to the High Priest. It's said that during the Shang Dynasty, someone once presented Shang Emperor Zhou with a Dragon Cauldron engraved with Kui Dragon patterns. Emperor Zhou was delighted and invited the presenter to be his guest."

The girl spoke expressionlessly, "Yet overnight, the Shang Capital was utterly destroyed, its national fortune lost, and calamities descended. According to our records, the mysterious benefactor who presented the Kui Dragon Pattern Ding was none other than Tai Zhuo."

The group was stunned.

The Alchemy Matrix surrounding the Sea of Eternal Life was guarded by twelve ancestors.

All twelve had now been slain.

But no one had imagined that one of them had such an illustrious background.

"Logically speaking, anyone below Holy Land Level could not possibly defeat Tai Zhuo unless its revival had been incomplete. We need detailed information on what transpired back then."

The girl spoke calmly, "So, who exactly killed Tai Zhuo?"

The Omegas exchanged glances, and eventually, all eyes turned toward the back.

Ji Xiaoyu also turned her head toward the boy beside her.

"I killed him."

Gu Jianlin said calmly, "What about it?"

He faintly sensed that there might have been something off about that battle.

The black-robed figures simultaneously lifted their heads, their eyes flickering with eerie starlight.

Gu Jianlin realized from their gazes that they were using their Extraordinary Ability on him.

Come on, look all you want.

If you really see something, it'll scare you to death.

"May I ask, did you kill him alone?"

The girl asked emotionlessly.

Gu Jianlin frowned, "No, I had a teammate—Thunder."

For a split second, the black-robed figures collectively became alert.

The girl furrowed her brows even deeper and questioned, "Your Name?"

Gu Jianlin detested the tone of her inquiry and initially didn't want to answer.

The Omegas, aware of his irritable temperament, began signaling toward the surrounding surveillance cameras.

Ultimately, it was Taixu who spoke up: "Omega Sequence, First Tier, Fourth-Order Cloud Monarch, Gu Jianlin."

Upon hearing the name, the black-robed figures' expressions turned icy.

"I seem to have heard that name before."

For the first time, a trace of hostility appeared in the girl's indifferent eyes. The sword box on her back began to vibrate faintly, accompanied by a childlike voice, "I need to inspect your memory—my apologies."

Without delay, she stepped forward and raised her finger.

Her fingertip aimed directly at the boy's forehead.

The Omegas watched in shock at the unfolding scene.

Especially those in the know.

One was a student of the King of Qing, a Super Newcomer King who annihilates all opposition.

The other was a creature from Lishan's Heavenly Destiny Pavilion, harboring an ancient soul within.

This was truly explosive.

Yet in the very next moment—bang!
