In truth, by the time Ye Yu came to the Extreme Moon Pavilion, he had already made thorough preparations.
After all, his real objective was never to hide here like a frightened mouse.
He wanted to borrow Hua Nongying’s sharp blade and use it to kill Ling Tai once and for all, completely ending the problem forever.
To achieve this goal, Ye Yu had racked his brains and written a letter overflowing with mockery, then deliberately placed it in the very center of the Cui family main hall.
As long as Ling Tai went looking for him, he would definitely see that letter.
And once he read it, he would absolutely lose control.
Ye Yu was eighty percent certain Ling Tai would personally come searching for him.
Since killing Ye Yu had already become an obsession, there was no way Ling Tai could simply let go of it.
The only thing worth worrying about was when exactly Ling Tai would arrive.
After all, waiting itself was torture.
Just as Ye Yu, Qi Yuan, and Cui Yanshui sat together with solemn expressions, a muffled sound suddenly echoed through the air.
It immediately drew their attention.
What was that sound?
Before they could think further, a second muffled boom rang out.
This time, it was slightly louder than before.
Immediately afterward, the bells of the Extreme Moon Pavilion began to toll.
Dong! Dong! Dong!
Nine consecutive chimes rang out.
At the same moment, countless sounds of bodies tearing through the sky erupted everywhere.
Ye Yu pushed open the door and looked outside, only to see innumerable golden stars raining down from the heavens.
They smashed against the sky above the Extreme Moon Pavilion, stirring wave after wave of violent ripples.
More than a hundred God Clan cultivators from the Extreme Moon Pavilion shot upward to reinforce the barrier.
Unfortunately, the number of golden stars was simply too overwhelming.
They could not withstand it at all.
The destruction of the formation was only a matter of time.
The divine attendant standing guard outside the door wore a face full of terror as he leaned trembling against the wall.
“No way... again?”
The moment Ye Yu heard those words, his interest was instantly piqued.
He immediately raised his hand and pulled the divine attendant over.
“What did you just say? What do you mean ‘again’?”
The divine attendant pointed upward.
Following the direction of his finger, Ye Yu finally noticed that at the highest point above the Extreme Moon Pavilion stood an utterly ordinary middle aged man floating in the air.
Honestly, it was not because Ye Yu’s eyesight was poor.
The golden stars were simply too dazzling and naturally drew everyone’s attention first.
Which made the middle aged man hidden within the shadows easy to overlook.
On top of that, the man wore a dark gray robe that nearly blended into the sky itself, making him even harder to notice.
Strangely enough—
his appearance was ordinary.
His build was ordinary.
His aura was ordinary.
Everything about him was painfully average, the type who would disappear completely in a crowd.
Yet beneath the illumination of those golden stars, he somehow felt completely different.
Without question, this was the mysterious figure who had attacked the Extreme Moon Pavilion before.
The moment Ye Yu realized this, he instantly lost his composure.
No way.
Are you seriously screwing with me right now?
I brought the Cui family to the Extreme Moon Pavilion to avoid disaster, and now another catastrophe falls from the sky?
Hopefully the Extreme Moon Pavilion can stand firm this time and drive this mysterious man away.
Otherwise, once the Divine Alliance formation shatters and he enters the pavilion, if the Cui family members get caught in the crossfire, things will become truly disastrous.
Unfortunately, nothing in this world ever unfolded exactly according to one’s expectations.
In the very next instant, the Divine Alliance formation surrounding the Extreme Moon Pavilion exploded apart.
Countless God Clan cultivators from the pavilion fell from the sky while coughing up blood.
The mysterious middle aged man slowly walked forward.
At that exact moment, a pillar of light erupted from the main hall of the Extreme Moon Pavilion.
Hua Nongying’s voice thundered out from within the hall.
“Li Tian, do you take our Extreme Moon Pavilion for your own backyard?”
“You come every few days as you please. Have we really spoiled you that much?”
The moment her words fell, a gigantic phantom tens of thousands of feet tall suddenly appeared, towering between heaven and earth.
It was an enlarged projection of Hua Nongying herself.
Compared to that immense figure, the middle aged man named Li Tian appeared no larger than a speck of dust.
Yet even so, not the slightest ripple appeared on Li Tian’s face.
He merely said calmly,
“Tell me where the item is.”
“Otherwise, many people will die today.”
Hua Nongying sneered.
“You think I’ll hand it over just because you say so?”
“Don’t think winning half a move against me last time means you’re invincible beneath the heavens!”
Watching the confrontation between two Divine Sovereign Realm experts about to erupt in the sky, Ye Yu’s first instinct was immediate tactical retreat with his wives.
Once existences at that level started fighting, calling it heaven shattering and earth splitting would not be an exaggeration in the slightest.
Ye Yu had no desire to die here for no reason.
However, when he returned to the room and prepared to call for everyone—
he discovered a figure he absolutely did not expect.
The undying Child of Destiny, Ling Tai.
At that very moment, Ling Tai stood in the center of the room, still holding the letter Ye Yu had left behind in the Cui family.
Qi Yuan and Cui Yanshui stood on opposite sides, both staring at him with grave expressions.
Yet Ling Tai completely ignored the two women and softly said to Ye Yu,
“To be honest, I’ve always been curious.”
“Why won’t you fight me openly and directly?”
“Why insist on using all those disgraceful tricks?”
“Or are you simply afraid?”
At that moment, Ye Yu’s thoughts raced wildly.
Now that the mysterious figure Li Tian had appeared, nobody in the entire Extreme Moon Pavilion could possibly spare attention to help him.
The only option left was relying on himself.
Which meant he absolutely had to intimidate Ling Tai somehow.
Almost instantly, a bold idea appeared in Ye Yu’s mind.
“Afraid?”
“Do you even believe those words yourself?”
Ye Yu’s calm, steady voice instantly caused Ling Tai’s expression to shift.
Ling Tai coldly replied,
“If you’re not afraid, then why refuse to face me openly?”
Ye Yu said disdainfully,
“What qualifications do you have that force me to personally face you?”
“So what if you’re in the Divine Sovereign Realm?”
“How do you compare to Gu Yuanzhen?”
“I was able to kill Gu Yuanzhen, which naturally means I can kill you as well.”
“And with that tiny third rate aura inside your body, you actually think you’re invincible beneath the heavens?”
“If you truly were invincible, would you need to sneak in here while taking advantage of someone else’s chaos?”
Hearing those words, Ling Tai’s expression became increasingly ugly.
Just as Ye Yu said, two days earlier Ling Tai had already gone to the Cui family and discovered the letter.
The contents mocked him relentlessly and even directly stated that Ye Yu was currently inside the Extreme Moon Pavilion.
“If you’ve got the guts, come kill me.”
Truthfully, Ling Tai genuinely could not swallow that anger.
So he immediately came to the vicinity of the Extreme Moon Pavilion.
Yet after seeing the majestic gates of the Divine Alliance, he instinctively shrank back.
The reason was simple.
He had truly been beaten badly enough to fear it.
Hua Nongying’s divine arts were genuinely terrifying. Every encounter left him in unbearable agony.
But if he simply turned around and left like that, he could not swallow his anger either.
Moreover, as long as Ye Yu remained alive, Ling Tai would forever feel a thorn lodged in his throat.
Thus, he continuously wandered around outside the gates of the Extreme Moon Pavilion.
Until today—
when the situation finally turned in his favor.
