Checking in for 100,000 Years

Chapter 1435: Chapter 1435: Return

Within the Ancient God Religion.

Deep in a massive palace, a stunningly beautiful young girl clad in a black gauze dress stood, with perfect features, skin as jade, and black hair like a waterfall. Her aura was extraordinary and transcendent, like a peerless goddess from a painting, exuding an indescribable ethereal presence.

At this moment, the girl had her hands behind her back, gazing into the distant void, her thin, sensual lips slightly curling into a smile.

”Today is that wretched maid’s wedding day, and not a single person from my Ancient God Religion is going to attend. I reckon that wretched maid’s face must be burning with anger...”

The girl murmured to herself, her eyes growing brighter, her tone laced with mockery.

This person.

Was none other than the third-ranking figure of the Ancient God Religion—

The new Goddess of Ancient.

As a figure in authority, she had thrown the former, faded Goddess of Ancient to the Ancient God Religion, making her serve as the furnace for the son of Vice Dean Zhou. Naturally, it was she who had suggested this to the Sect Hierarch.

The Sect Hierarch was exceedingly fond of the new Goddess of Ancient, hence ordered that no one from the Ancient God Religion was to attend the wedding banquet.

Doing so was also to highlight the status of the Goddess of Ancient.

After all, Lan Ruoyou’s defeat had made him extremely furious.

Now, this person actually dared to return; isn’t this shaming the current Goddess of Ancient?

However, neither the Sect Hierarch of Ancient nor the Goddess of Ancient knew that today, the wedding banquet at Star Mountain had taken a shocking turn. The father and son of the Zhou family, originally the protagonists, were turned into bizarre creatures and captured and controlled by the senior officials of the Star Ancient God Religion.

...

The Ancient God Religion is located in the southwestern region of the Ancient Realm.

It is quite distant from the Star Ancient God Religion, and information transmission is not that fast.

Furthermore.

The transformation of Vice Sect Hierarch Zhou and his son into strange creatures also counts as a scandal, and the senior officials of the Star Ancient God Religion do not want to announce it publicly before investigating the source of that evil wind.

The entire Ancient God Religion is extremely peaceful, with a silent storm about to descend upon the Ancient God Religion.

Outside the Ancient God Religion.

The void surged, and three figures stepped out.

They were Ye Yun, Nangong Jade, and Little Flower.

At this time, Nangong Jade had changed into a black gauze dress and no longer hid her face with a veil, showing her true self.

”Nangong girl, go ahead boldly. If anyone is blind enough, Brother Yun will back you up!”

Ye Yun held Nangong Jade’s small hand, gently stroking it as he spoke with a smile.

”Brother Yun, I want to publicly challenge this new Goddess of Ancient in front of all the members of the Ancient Clan. I just don’t believe her talent and strength can surpass mine!”

A brilliant light flashed in Nangong Jade’s eyes as she spoke with determination.

”I support you.”

Ye Yun laughed heartily, nodding indifferently.

The entire Ancient God Religion had no cultivators at the God-Emperor Realm, so there was no need for him to take action; Little Flower could easily handle it.

Currently, Little Flower’s cultivation base in the Ancient Realm is between the God-Emperor Realm and the Immortal Boundary, deeming her a half-step Immortal.

Such a cultivation base in the Ancient Realm was an invincible existence.

Of course.

Ye Yun wouldn’t bully the weak by leveraging Little Flower’s invincibility.

After all, Nangong Jade was the Goddess of Ancient and held deep feelings for the Ancient God Religion, so a massacre wouldn’t be appropriate here.

As long as Nangong Jade publicly defeats the new Goddess of Ancient and regains the title of Goddess of Ancient with everyone’s approval, then in Ye Yun’s view, that would suffice.

If the Ancient God Religion’s Sect Hierarch and others refuse to submit to Nangong Jade, then Ye Yun would have Little Flower take action to teach them a lesson.

Those two old geezers have lived for many years and naturally don’t wish to die. In situations threatening their lives, they would inevitably make the proper choice.

If worse comes to worst.

Little Flower could hand them a couple of seeds.

In this manner.

The top two figures in the Ancient God Religion would be under Nangong Jade’s control, ensuring no further internal upheavals.

The three flew to the mountain gate but were stopped.

The disciples guarding the Divine Gate numbered four, all at the Divine King Realm.

”Who dares trespass our Ancient God Religion?”

One of them, looking unfriendly, shouted loudly.

”Lady Lan Ruoyou?”

Another young man looked at Nangong Jade, flustered, and asked excitedly, blinking: ”Lady, didn’t you marry into the Star Ancient God Religion? Today is said to be your wedding day...”

Nangong Jade gazed at this rather familiar youth with mixed emotions, sighed, and said, ”So it’s Kui Nan, I didn’t expect you to be at the Divine King Realm now...”

Back when this youth joined the Ancient God Religion, he was only at the True God Realm, and Nangong Jade had once guided his cultivation.

”You are...”

The young man was extremely excited, his body trembling uncontrollably.

This lady Goddess of Ancient in front of him, her cultivation base was God King Realm Layer Ten, distinctly different from the previous one.

He seemed to have guessed something.

”You’re right, the one who came to the Ancient Realm earlier was merely my avatar, and now my true self has personally arrived at the Ancient God Religion...”

Nangong Jade nodded as she spoke.

”Hail, Goddess!”

The young man didn’t hesitate, immediately kneeling down.

The other three disciples exchanged confused glances, unsure what to do.

”You all should step aside; this time I’ve returned to meet the new Goddess of Ancient!”

Nangong Jade spoke softly.

Upon hearing these words, the three disciples shivered, stepped back several paces, and opened up a path.

The power struggle between the old and new Goddess of Ancient was not something mere gatekeeping disciples could intervene in.

”Brother Yun, let’s go.”

Nangong Jade turned and gave Ye Yun a radiant smile before flying in first.

Ye Yun and Little Flower followed closely.

The three became a powerful presence, surprisingly encountering no further obstacles, driving straight in, all the way to the Goddess Palace.

The Goddess Palace is where the Goddess of Ancient resides and cultivates.

Gazing at the familiar Goddess Palace, Nangong Jade’s eyes were misty, her delicate body trembling slightly, evidently very emotional.

After so many years.

She had finally returned to her palace.

However.

The current master of this palace was another Goddess of Ancient.

It took only two or three breaths after the trio entered through the mountain gate to reach the Goddess Palace.

A line of armored guards stood outside the Goddess Palace, all at the God King Realm Layer Ten.

These people were stunned upon seeing Nangong Jade.

Some of them were very familiar with Nangong Jade.

”Goddess... Lady!”

Someone spoke with difficulty, looking incredulously at the black figure in the sky.

”Goddess of Ancient, I, Lan Ruoyou, have returned; dare you take up a challenge?”

Nangong Jade directed a piercing gaze at the Goddess Palace below, shouting loudly.

This voice, booming like thunder, instantly echoed throughout the vast Ancient God Religion.

Countless disciples of the Ancient God Religion abruptly awoke from their cultivation state, looking toward the direction of the Goddess Palace.

”God King Realm Layer Ten...

That’s not Lan Ruoyou!

Could it be... her true self has returned?”

In the Sacrificial Hall.

The High Priest, clad in a black robe, suddenly opened his eyes, looking at the three above the Goddess Palace with some astonishment.

So, the one who returned earlier was merely Lan Ruoyou’s avatar, and that avatar was only at the God King Stature Third Layer.

Now, the true Lan Ruoyou had returned at the God King Realm Layer Ten.

”Interesting, a defeated general dares return to act presumptuously?”

The High Priest remained unmoved, a hint of ferocity flashing in his eyes.
