Supreme Lord of Towers

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

At this moment, in the high sky, figures continuously flew out from the massive purple-gold palace.

Although there were only about a hundred of them, each cultivator was extremely powerful, and the weakest ones had already stepped into the Profound Pill Realm.

”Miss, we have arrived.” A black-clad girl with a black veil on her face said excitedly.

This black-clad girl was none other than Zhu’er.

Her cultivation had impressively broken through from the Peak of Divine Mansion Realm to the Profound Pill Realm.

In fact, before venturing into the Celestial Cry Mountain Range for exploration, Zhu’er’s cultivation had already reached the Peak of Divine Mansion Realm.

However, because she hadn’t cultivated the True Intent to the Fourth Layer, her cultivation had stagnated.

But, after the Black Simurgh Evil within her was expelled by Ye Chen’s Evil Exorcism Pill, her understanding greatly improved.

Thus, not long ago, she finally cultivated the True Intent to the Fourth Layer and stepped into the Profound Pill Realm.

Now she was even stronger than Hua Qianxue.

”Zhu’er, didn’t I tell you not to follow me? Why won’t you listen?” Shangguan Zitong gave a slight, bitter smile beside Zhu’er.

”I was worried about your safety, Miss! Wherever you go, I want to follow.” Zhu’er stuck out her tongue playfully.

”Don’t worry, Miss, I will protect Zhu’er well. Furthermore, you are a talented disciple of Ziwei Sacred Land; even in those Ancient Ruins, few dare provoke you. So, it’s good to let Zhu’er come and see.” An elder wearing a bronze mask said.

He was none other than Hei Bo.

Hei Bo’s cultivation had reached the later stage of the Profound Pill Realm.

With him around, few could harm Zhu’er.

Moreover, he could help Shangguan Zitong with some troublesome matters.

In fact, apart from Shangguan Zitong, many disciples of Ziwei Sacred Land brought their attendants this time.

After all, some matters they simply didn’t want to deal with personally.

”It’s Shangguan Zitong.” At this moment, Tuoba Xiong’s pupils suddenly contracted, and he stared at Shangguan Zitong with an intense look of disbelief.

Even he hadn’t expected that Shangguan Zitong would dare to explore those Ancient Ruins.

To know, she was the target the Tuoba Clan had always wanted to eliminate.

Wasn’t she afraid that in those Ancient Ruins, she might be killed by the powerful warriors of the Tuoba Clan?

”Hmph! This woman, so reckless. Does she really think because she’s a disciple of Ziwei Sacred Land, our Tuoba Clan won’t dare move against her? Truly naive! This time, her doom has arrived.” After a brief shock, Tuoba Xiong sneered, looking at Shangguan Zitong as if seeing a dead person.

It was known to him that this time, the Quasi-God Tuoba Clan behind him had also sent some geniuses to explore those Ancient Ruins.

Among these geniuses, some had even awakened Celestial Bloodlines.

If they found out that Shangguan Zitong had entered those Ancient Ruins, they absolutely wouldn’t let her go.

Anyway, those Ancient Ruins were filled with dangers, and any accident could occur.

Even if Shangguan Zitong were truly killed, it would be difficult for the powerful warriors of Ziwei Sacred Land to investigate.

”Fairy Zitong, why don’t we travel together? It was Saint Son Jiang Xuan who sent me to protect you.” At this moment, a young man with fair skin and extremely handsome features suddenly smiled at Shangguan Zitong.

The young man was Zhao Yu, also one of the talented disciples of Ziwei Sacred Land.

His cultivation was exceptionally strong, having stepped into the later stage of the Profound Pill Realm.

Even among the core disciples of Ziwei Sacred Land, he was considered extremely powerful.

If he protected Shangguan Zitong, her pressure would naturally be much reduced.

However, Shangguan Zitong shook her head and said, ”No need, I can protect myself.”

”Fairy Zitong, I know your strength is great, but those Ancient Ruins are filled with dangers, and no one knows what unexpected events might occur. We should travel together.” Zhao Yu frowned slightly and once again invited Shangguan Zitong.

Shangguan Zitong was the woman favored by Saint Son Jiang Xuan.

Her Cyan Dragon Bloodline was of great help to Saint Son Jiang Xuan.

Therefore, this time, Zhao Yu was obeying Jiang Xuan’s order to protect Shangguan Zitong.

If Shangguan Zitong encountered any accidents in those Ancient Ruins, he couldn’t face Jiang Xuan.

Because of this, even after her refusal, he thick-skinnedly spoke out.

If it were someone else, he wouldn’t even bother.

”No need, Brother Zhao Yu, I appreciate your kindness, but I prefer not to travel with others.” To Zhao Yu’s surprise, Shangguan Zitong refused his offer again, her tone very firm.

This caused Zhao Yu’s expression to become very unsightly, as if he had been slapped publicly.

”Damn it, this woman, so ungrateful. If it weren’t for Saint Son Jiang Xuan, I wouldn’t bother to protect her,” Zhao Yu cursed inwardly.

He, a core disciple of Ziwei Sacred Land with an extremely illustrious status.

Yet now, rejected repeatedly by Shangguan Zitong.

This, to him, was a huge humiliation.

If it weren’t for Shangguan Zitong being the woman Jiang Xuan had set his sights on, he would’ve confronted her already.

”Hmph! This woman, putting on airs; Brother Zhao Yu’s offer to protect her is a blessing of her lifetimes, yet she doesn’t cherish it, truly foolish.”

”Exactly, she’ll definitely regret it when she encounters danger.” Several female disciples of Ziwei Sacred Land sneered secretly, their eyes filled with jealousy and mockery.

Shangguan Zitong’s talent, though not the best in Ziwei Sacred Land.

Her beauty, however, was flawless; otherwise, she couldn’t be one of Ziwei Sacred Land’s four great beauties.

Plus, Saint Son Jiang Xuan had been pursuing Shangguan Zitong.

So, many female disciples of Ziwei Sacred Land secretly envied her, wishing she’d fall into trouble.

”Let’s go, Zhu’er.” The next moment, Shangguan Zitong took Zhu’er and Hei Bo and flew swiftly towards the Teleportation Gate ahead.

”Sigh! With Ziwei Sacred Land’s disciples joining in, our sect’s disciples may struggle to gain any Creation this time.”

”Indeed! Ziwei Sacred Land’s disciples are too strong, even ordinary ones outmatch our sect’s Saint Sons, let alone the core disciples.”

”Fortunately, no Saint Sons from Ziwei Sacred Land are entering those Ancient Ruins this time; otherwise, no one could compete with them.” Various Immortal Sect’s strong practitioners sighed.

Ziwei Sacred Land’s Saint Sons, each one’s background was extremely illustrious, lacking nothing in cultivation resources.

Thus, those Ancient Ruins didn’t even catch their eye.

It was only disciples like Shangguan Zitong seriously lacking cultivation resources who regarded those Ancient Ruins as treasure.

However, this was a good thing for the cultivators exploring the Ancient Ruins.

At least they would face fewer terrifying competitors.

If even Ziwei Sacred Land’s Saint Sons were drawn in, no one could compete against these monsters.
