"She fell into the abyss...?" Hongyue frowned deeply. How did Xia Nongyue leave her trace behind in the Azure World if that were the case?
"I don't need to lie to you about this one." Qian Guimo responded.
"What about him?" Hongyue asked further.
Yu Wuying also looked at Qian Guimo with anticipation. She wasn't there when the Beyond Heaven King fell and truly wanted to know what happened that day.
Qian Guimo frowned slightly as he spoke. "It was a bit… bizarre. He was at the end of his rope and had nothing left in him when he caught up with him."
"Ren Yuan tried to keep everyone out and took action himself. He used the Heavenly Desolate Orb to restrict Yun Tian's movement and attempted to extract his profound vein and soul."
"However, everyone suddenly noticed that Yun Tian had no profound vein. More precisely, he was just an ordinary mortal, and all his important memories were completely erased."
Hongyue and Yu Wuying were stunned. Especially Hongyue. She was sure that the Beyond Heaven King's profound vein remained intact when they were escaping together. How did he manage to do it?
At the same time, Hongyue was quite sure that the mysterious person who had abducted Cai Xieren and wiped her memory was responsible for this. This person and Yun Tian must work together somehow.
Hongyue tried to recall everything, but she couldn't think of anyone who could possibly be the mysterious person. And since this person was so powerful, why bother going to such great lengths to set up all of this instead of saving Yun Tian?
As long as Yun Tian was still alive, he could make a comeback at any moment. There was no need to find a successor at all.
Hongyue's mind spun rapidly. She felt that she had almost discovered the truth behind everything, but there was a thin layer blocking her.
Qian Guimo further stated. "Ren Yuan wanted to detain him and gradually uncover the truth about the mysterious vanishing of his profound vein. However, Yun Tian somehow managed to free himself from Ren Yuan's restraints and detonated himself."
"How? He didn't have any strength at all." Yu Wuying couldn't help but ask.
Qian Guimo shrugged. "Who knows?... He was still the mighty Beyond Heaven King, after all. Even if he were at the end of the road, he could perform some tricks that no one could comprehend. I guess it was some sort of explosion talisman."
"Ren Yuan stood closest to Yun Tian, but he couldn't even prevent him from exploding. I bet he still hasn't figured it out yet."
"Yun Tian also left behind a message stating that his successor would return to seek revenge. This leads to rumors about his legacy being left behind."
"Later, we discovered the existence of the Azure World. However, with the Dragon Sealing Formation and Yue Hua's intervention, no one dares to enter. Of course, there were some greedy people who weren't afraid of death and tried to sneak in, but they all ended up getting killed."
Qian Guimo paused for a moment and then continued speaking. "What surprised me the most was Ren Yuan's attitude. Since he returned from that trip, he seems to be ignoring everything and staying in his place. Many people urged him to take care of the Azure World, but he remained silent."
"Well, I guess he doesn't want to risk his life against the Dragon Sealing Formation. No matter how powerful he is, I don't think he can go against the deadliest formation that has ever existed.
Listening to Qian Guimo's narration, Hongyue roughly gained a general understanding of the entire situation. Basically, the Beyond Heaven King and the mysterious person collaborated to orchestrate everything for Yun Lintian.
Perhaps Hongyue herself, Cai Xieren, and Xia Nongyue were all part of it, but she couldn't remember much of anything.
At first, Hongyue believed that her memories would return once she reached her peak again, but it didn't seem to be the case… How could she retrieve them?
Qian Guimo observed Hongyue's expression and was convinced that she had no idea about any of this. It was strange coming from one of the closest people to the Beyond Heaven King… What game were they playing?
At this moment, Qian Guimo no longer seemed to have any desire to plunder the inheritance of the Beyond Heaven King. He was rather curious about the mystery behind everything.
Hongyue set everything aside and stared at Qian Guimo with a cold expression. "What else do you have?"
"No more." Qian Guimo spread his arms.
"Do you think I will let you go because of this useless information?" Hongyue's eyes filled with murderous intent.
Qian Guimo shuddered involuntarily, but he forced himself to speak. "This information was considered part of my collection and was useless to begin with. However, when I saw you again, I immediately knew that you would definitely take it."
"Furthermore, there is no deep hatred between us in the first place. You know in your heart that my role in Yun Tian's demise is insignificant compared to Zi Wei, Ren Yuan, and Ling Yongheng. At most, I could be regarded as a betrayer of the Divine Realm."
He took a deep breath and continued speaking. "I also bet on your character. Everyone in the world might regard you as a bloodthirsty killer, but I know that you are not that kind of person. Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to become Yun Tian's confidante, considering how kind he was."
"Oh. Really?" Hongyue revealed an evil smile. Her aura surged as a long red line flashed before Qian Guimo.
Qian Guimo's pupils shrank. He didn't expect Hongyue to make a sudden move.
He hurriedly circulated his power, but it was too late.
Rippp—
Instantly, Qian Guimo's limbs were severed, and he had a deep gash across his chest.
Qian Guimo turned ghastly pale as blood spurted into the air. He felt pain throughout his body, but he managed to suppress the urge to scream.
He glared angrily at Hongyue but didn't dare to say anything.
"I will collect some interests first," Hongyue said coldly. "The next time we meet, it will be your end."
Qian Guimo gritted his teeth and activated his movement technique, vanishing into the void.
Hongyue turned to look at Yu Wuying and said. "Regret?"
Yu Wuying shook her head. "Senior must have your reason for letting him go."
