Two women were standing on a flying artifact, but one of them kept frowning and grumbling in annoyance. "Hey, Lyra! Four days ago, your green feather showed us that Ling Yun's location was in the upper realms, but it suddenly reversed direction towards the lower realms, and it has now become unclear."

"Princess, I thought Ling Yun really lived in these upper realms, but he probably returned to the lower realms four days ago, and he is on his way back here now."

"How is that possible?" Nu Shen asked with a frown. "If Ling Yun really returned to the lower realms four days ago, we should have met them, right?"

"No." Lyra shook her head. "There are many routes leading to the lower realms, and Ling Yun probably returned there via one of them."

"Well, that's true." Nu Shen nodded in agreement with that. "However, there is no way he can go back and forth between upper realms and lower realms so quickly, unless he has an immortal-grade flying artifact, but only a few people have it."

Lyra sighed softly. "I don't have an answer for that myself, Princess. Anyway, it would be better if we went straight to that planet, and I'm sure that we will meet Ling Yun there later."

"All right." Nu Shen then said to her. "If I'm not mistaken, the planet is the Sky Cloud Realm, right? That planet can be said to be the safest in these upper realms, especially with the existence of the Tian Clan there; even their leader is Uncle Xian Di's direct disciple."

"Yes." Lyra answered with a nod. "I remember Ling Yun and Luxuria discussing the three adjacent realms before, so I'm no longer surprised that they chose that planet for their new residence."

"Let's go; we're not far from that planet, so we'll be there today." After she said that, Nu Shen flew her flying artifact again, and they headed towards that realm at full speed.

Another flying artifact had entered the Sky Cloud Realm, and it directly moved towards the central region before stopping right above the Tian Clan's residence.

"Lord, that brat is not in his clan, and he is there now." Shou Zhe said that as he pointed in another direction. "Should we go there to meet him?"

"Let's go; we'll meet him now." Xian Di said as he flew away from the flying artifact, and he immediately put it away after Shou Zhe followed behind him.

Moments later, the two of them had arrived above a small blacksmith shop, and Xian Di observed Tian Huang, who was forging a weapon. "This kid didn't disappoint me."

"His work is more refined now, and I don't notice any flaws in that weapon." However, Shou Zhe felt confused, seeing the size of the weapon. "What exactly is he thinking? Why is he forging such a huge weapon? Moreover, it seems to be very heavy, and not many cultivators can wield such a heavy weapon."

"Haha, we can ask him directly, right?" Xian Di answered as he landed in the shop, and Shou Zhe landed behind him.

Without thinking twice, Tian Huang stopped his work and kneeled in front of Xian Di. "Master? Senior Shou? Why did you two suddenly come to this realm?"

"Hey, kiddo! How many times have I told you not to kneel like this?" Xian Di asked with a shake of his head, and he used his aura to lift Tian Huang to his feet. "It's been a long time since I visited you, so I decided to come to see your progress, and I'm truly proud to see your current abilities."

"My lord is right, Little Huang." Shou Zhe also said to him. "Back then, your abilities were truly amateurish, but you have become a skilled blacksmith now."

"Haha." Tian Huang laughed while scratching his head. "Senior Shou, you praise me too much, and my blacksmithing skills are still far behind yours."

"Not really." Shou Zhe replied as he took the huge weapon. "This work of yours is almost perfect, so I dare say that your abilities are almost on par with mine, but I don't understand your reasons for forging such a huge and heavy weapon."

Hearing that, Tian Huang seemed hesitant to answer him, and Xian Di asked him. "Why is your expression like that? Do you have something you can't tell us?"

Tian Huang sighed heavily before telling him. "Master, I'm sorry I didn't ask for your approval first, but I've taken a disciple now, and I'm teaching him all the techniques you taught me."

"Oh?" Both men were surprised to hear that. "Who is that person? Does he really have talent for blacksmithing? I don't have a problem if you take a disciple and teach him those techniques, but you have to choose someone who has talent and passion in this field, or those techniques would be useless in his hands."

"His name is Mo Chen, and he is a newcomer to this realm." Both men were even more surprised after they heard his answer, and Tian Huang continued. "Even though his cultivation is still in the mortal realms, his raw strength is superior to that of the younger generation in this realm, and he also has a high interest in blacksmithing."

"Mo surname?" Both men frowned after hearing that.

"You two don't need to worry about his identity; he is not a member of the heretic Mo Clan, and he only uses that name as an alias." Tian Huang hurriedly explained it to them, as he knew that the nature race hated those heretics, mainly because they repeatedly tried to invade their realm, but they never succeeded in doing so. "Actually, he also has good relationships with women from the spirit race, so I decided to accept him as my disciple."

"A man who has a good relationship with the spirit race?"

"Yes." Tian Huang nodded to them.

Shou Zhe then asked him. "Who is Mo Chen's true identity? Not many people can have a relationship with the spirit race, so I am curious about his identity."

"His real name is Ling Yun, and he comes from the lower realms."

Instantly, Xian Di and Shou Zhe froze after hearing Ling Yun's name, and they looked at Tian Huang with wide eyes.

However, their reaction confused Tian Huang, so he decided to ask them. "Why are you two reacting like this? Have you ever heard his name before?"

Xian Di took a deep breath before his expression turned serious. "You mean that person is Ling Yun, who has a relationship with Luxuria?"

Tian Huang was not surprised to hear that, and he answered truthfully. "Yes, Luxuria is one of his wives, and Senior Yu brought Ling Yun to my clan."

"I see." Xian Di nodded in understanding.

"Did you know about their problems with the spirit race, Little Huang?" Shou Zhe asked him with a serious expression.

Tian Huang nodded to him. "I've known about it for some time, Senior Shou. In fact, not only have I heard of their troubles with the spirit race, but Tang Chen and several others have also known about it, and they have decided to side with Ling Yun."

"Does Tang Chen really want to side with Ling Yun?"

"Yes, Master." Tian Huang then told them again. "Actually, Ling Yun is also the son-in-law of the Tang Clan because one of his wives is Tang Chen's direct descendant, and we all know that he is very protective of his clan members."

"Who are the other people who already know about the problem between them?"

"Some people from the Misty Manor already know about it; it's because Meng Xianzi is Ling Yun's master, and Mu Yan's little sister is also one of his wives." Shou Zhe and Xian Di were astounded by Tang Huang's answer. "Ao Yangyu also knows about it, especially since Senior Yu is the founder of the Sunset Valley, and she was the one who told her about it."

"Lord, isn't that Ling Yun too terrifying?" Shou Zhe asked as he turned to Xian Di. "His status is far beyond my imagination; not only does he have a relationship with Luxuria and Zhou Yu, but he also has a relationship with those monsters."

Xian Di nodded in agreement. "Not many people dare to fight against Tang Chen, and Meng Xianzi's assassination abilities are extremely feared. Besides, the Misty Manor and Sunset Valley members are also powerful, and the spirit can't possibly do anything against Ling Yun and Luxuria if those people were on their side."

"Do you think Zhu Ling already knows about Ling Yun's relationship with them?"

"I don't think so, and Zhu Ling wouldn't have dared to send his spirit guardians to hunt them down if he already knew about it." Xian Di then asked Tian Huang. "Does that mean you will also be on Ling Yun's side?"

"Yes, Master." Tian Huang then told them about the results of the discussion between them and Tang Chen some time ago, surprising them even more. "Honestly, I still can't understand his decision myself, especially since he didn't explain everything in detail, and he only said that Ling Yun was destined to be the backbone of this universe."

"Hmm?" Xian Di crossed his arms in front of his chest and thought for a while. "If your words are true, I think Tang Chen's decision has something to do with his ancestor, but he probably asked him to hide it from us."

"Are you referring to Tang Xiao, Lord?"
