Chapter 1434: Chapter 1434: The Real Culprit Is the Nine-Tailed Divine Dragon

”An evil wind?”

The Divine Emperor Realm powerhouses of the Star Ancient God Religion looked at each other incredulously at the cultivator’s words.

”How is this possible?”

One of the Divine Emperor Realm powerhouses of the Star Ancient God Religion didn’t believe it at all. He grabbed another cultivator to inquire.

Unexpectedly, this person answered the same as the previous cultivator.

Everyone was shocked in their hearts.

What is going on?

What kind of evil wind could turn the Divine Emperor Realm powerhouses of the Xinggu Clan into these strange creatures?

Then, several more cultivators were pulled over for questioning, with the same answers received.

The entire upper echelon of the Star Ancient God Religion was shaken.

”First, control these two people...”

In the center of the void, the master of the Xinggu Divine Sect ordered with a gloomy expression.

Figures flew over, attacking those two creatures.

In a short time.

They forcibly controlled these two strange creatures.

”Where is that outdated Goddess of Ancient?”

A Vice Sect Hierarch scanned the scene, not finding Lan Ruoyou, and couldn’t help but ask sternly.

”Could she have fallen...”

Another Vice Sect Hierarch observed the scene and speculated.

Vice Dean Zhou and his son had turned into such massive strange creatures, easily able to crush the cultivation-restrained Lan Ruoyou into pulp.

”She hasn’t fallen, nor escaped, but disappeared...”

The master of Xinggu Divine Sect carefully observed and reached a bizarre conclusion.

Someone speculated: ”Master, could it be this evil wind that whisked Lan Ruoyou away?!”

The master of the Xinggu Divine Sect frowned and said, ”Send people to search for where this evil wind has gone...”

”Yes!”

One of the Vice Sect Hierarchs promptly agreed.

The order quickly spread, and figures flew out from the depths of Star Mountain in all directions to search.

Atop a mountain tens of thousands of miles away.

Ye Yun saw the Star Ancient God Religion deploy a large force and couldn’t help but smile faintly, gently waving his arm to set up an invisible barrier around them.

Nangong Jade saw Ye Yun’s meticulous actions and a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, her eyes narrowing into slits.

Brother Yun is still that Brother Yun, forever unfathomable.

One hundred thousand years ago, he defeated all opponents on the Cangnan Continent.

One hundred thousand years later, even in the stronger Ancient Realm, he still had no rivals.

She could see.

The black-skirted young woman by Brother Yun’s side had unfathomable strength, and the black spindle-shaped fruit contained an unknown number of umbrella-shaped seeds.

If truly spread.

The entire vast Star Ancient God Religion would be completely doomed.

Little Flower stood quietly beside Ye Yun, merely tiptoeing with hands behind her back, smilingly watching everyone.

Ye Yun turned around, looking at Nangong Jade’s duplicate, calmly saying, ”Lan Ruoyou, you are now out of the tiger’s mouth...”

Lan Ruoyou took a deep breath, nervously glancing at Little Flower, then with sparkling eyes, exceedingly moved, she said, ”Ye Yun, I truly didn’t choose wrong; you indeed possess the ability to rescue me!”

This doppelganger is truly unashamed.

Ye Yun shook his head with a smile, saying nothing, but glanced at Nangong Jade.

Nangong Jade was already furious from Lan Ruoyou’s words.

She transformed instantly, reverting to her original appearance.

The veil covering her face vanished at this moment.

”It’s you?!”

When Lan Ruoyou saw Nangong Jade’s appearance, she suddenly changed her expression and retreated repeatedly in shock, her entire body trembling continuously and her face turning pale.

She never imagined that the red-clothed youth beside Ye Yun was her true body.

”Wretched woman, who gave you the courage back then to sever our connection?”

Nangong Jade asked coldly.

Lan Ruoyou was silent upon hearing this, not speaking for a long time.

Ye Yun said indifferently, ”Lan Ruoyou, you have no choice now; the Ancient Realm no longer has a place for you.”

”Indeed, I have no choice now!”

Lan Ruoyou suddenly raised her head, looking at Nangong Jade, tears rolling down: ”Master, I was wrong...”

Saying this.

Lan Ruoyou’s knees softened, kneeling at Nangong Jade’s feet, she wept uncontrollably, pent-up grievances finally released at this moment.

”What did you do wrong?”

Facing the weeping duplicate, Nangong Jade felt inexplicably pressured, unable to hold back a long sigh.

”Master, back then I wrongfully trusted the Nine-tailed Divine Dragon’s words, severing my connection with you with his help!”

Lan Ruoyou said while crying.

”So that’s it, aligning with my suspicions, the doppelganger’s abnormality was due to the Nine-tailed Divine Dragon’s covert actions...”

Nangong Jade furrowed her brow.

According to her exclusive Divine Techniques, it was nearly impossible for a duplicate to betray her.

Unless there was powerful external interference.

”Master, when I was being hunted by the people of the Eternal Divine Hall, at my wits’ end, the Nine-tailed Divine Dragon descended from the skies and rescued me. Later, the Nine-tailed Divine Dragon again used this doppelganger, exercised supreme Divine Skills, located you at Cangnan Continent. Then, he threatened me by saying that if I didn’t sever the connection, he would go to Cangnan and kill you, Master...”

Lan Ruoyou sank into the thoughts of past events, slowly speaking.

”That creature could use you to locate me?”

Nangong Jade was shocked.

Beside them, Ye Yun’s expression changed slightly, feeling some shock internally.

If the Nine-tailed Divine Dragon had located Nangong Jade, why didn’t he make a move to kill her?

”Brother Yun, I understand now.”

With a flash of insight in her mind, Nangong Jade looked at Ye Yun, depressed: ”Back then, the Nine-tailed Divine Dragon found me and forced me to besiege the Dragon God Sect, even though I tried hiding my identity, it was useless; actually, he already saw through my disguise!”

”Then why didn’t he kill you?”

Ye Yun asked suspiciously.

”Perhaps he believed that since I was reborn in Cangnan Continent, starting cultivation from scratch, I posed no threat anymore? Coupled with the fact that he had successfully manipulated my doppelganger, he could completely use the doppelganger to replace me...”

Nangong Jade slowly explained.

”That Nine-tailed Divine Dragon is indeed deviously cunning...”

Ye Yun said with a cold laugh.

Having Nangong Jade drive the Ancient Giant Demon to besiege the Dragon God Sect, in reality, planted a hidden danger in Nangong Jade’s Dao Heart.

This hidden danger, like a nightmare accompanying Nangong Jade, would prevent her from progressing far on the path of cultivation.

This way.

Nangong Jade’s reign was over, forming no threat.

And manipulating this duplicate, it could fully replace Nangong Jade, becoming the new Goddess of Ancient.

The plan was quite perfect.

Except for a few things the Nine-tailed Divine Dragon didn’t control well.

This duplicate, driven by initial enthusiasm, arrived at the Ancient Realm, but was suppressed by the suddenly emerging new Goddess of Ancient.

After that, the duplicate was given to Vice Dean Zhou’s son, her miserable fate as a cauldron ensued.

A woman as a cauldron is a sacrifice for Dual Cultivation Method.

”Master...”

Lan Ruoyou wiped tears from the corner of her eyes, her expression sorrowful, continuing: ”I didn’t want you to be killed by him on Cangnan Continent; I had no choice but to agree, and later the Nine-tailed Divine Dragon told me the location of the Ancient Beast, allowing me to return to the Ancient Realm one day and reclaim the authority of the Goddess of Ancient.

Back then, under his coercion, I had no choice but to agree to everything, and later, with the help of the Nine-tailed Divine Dragon, I successfully severed my connection with you...”

”Sigh!”

Hearing Lan Ruoyou’s words, Nangong Jade’s doubts dissipated, sighing with a complicated expression.

The duplicate was certainly wrong, but the true culprit was the Nine-tailed Divine Dragon.

”Lan Ruoyou, you are, after all, a duplicate of Nangong Jade, and now you have the intention to repent. Why not reunite with your master at this moment?”

Ye Yun said.

”I intended this, please accept me, Master!”

Lan Ruoyou kowtowed earnestly, seriously saying.

”Alright, I forgive you.”

Nangong Jade sighed, gently extending her jade hand, placing it on Lan Ruoyou’s head.

Colorful rays rose.

Lan Ruoyou’s body was enveloped by the radiance, gradually becoming invisible.

Soon after, the colorful rays flowed like a stream into the palm, and Lan Ruoyou completely disappeared.

Seeing Nangong Jade successfully resolve the duplicate, Ye Yun felt relieved.

He reached out, patting Nangong Jade’s fragrant shoulder.

”Nangong girl, now that matters are resolved here, let’s proceed to the Ancient God Religion to reclaim all that you rightfully deserve!”

Ye Yun said solemnly.
