"What a pleasant surprise."
At this moment, Lin Yan was sitting on the throne inside the Lingxiao Hall, Heavenly Palace.
His consciousness had returned to his main body, and he had a rare smile on his face.
Honestly, he thought his trip to the foreign land was a fruitless one.
However, Qian Linlong unexpectedly received God Taichu's blessing and made a breakthrough into the Eternal Realm in just a few decades.
So, Qian Linglong, the Eternal Realm powerhouse succeeding the Heavenly Emperor's throne, Lin Yan, would be able to deal with that Bronze Gate without worry.
"Lin Yan, you're now an Eternal Realm powerhouse, so are you still certain you can destroy the Bronze Gate and then return in one piece?"
Lin Yan heard the Ancient Artifact’s voice sound around her waist.
Previously, Lin Yan had to risk his life to close the Bronze Gate since he was only in the Immortal Realm.
But now, he had reached the Eternal Realm, and the chances of returning alive were higher than ever.
So, this was why the Ancient Artifact asked.
When Lin Yan glanced up at the Bronze Gate above, he felt pressure emanating from it.
After pondering for a moment, Lin Yan mysteriously smiled and shook his head, "Maybe, who knows...".

Saying this, he then opened the door and exited Lingxiao Hall.

(On The Lingxuan Continent)
As of this moment, everyone inside the Heavenly Palace's Lingxiao Hall, including Long Feijian and Qian Linglong.
Above the Heavenly Palace, even the Demon Queen, Xiao Yanran, Xiao Mei, and Teng Gang, who were frantically tearing through space, paused and retraced their gaze on the screen.
After all, it was only ten years ago that the Heavenly Emperor exited Lingxiao’s Hall.
In other words, this meant that the timeline displayed on the screen represented the last ten years.
During these years, many things happened that led to the Heavenly Emperor becoming increasingly lonely.
Later on, he was imprisoned in the Linglong Treasure Mirror.
Obviously, no one would suspect anything if it had happened the day before.
But now, they were certain that everything that had happened during these ten years must also have been due to the Heavenly Emperor's arrangement.
Of course …this was no longer relevant right now.
What mattered most was finding the Heavenly Emperor.
Did he die inside the Linglong Treasure Mirror, or did he go to close the Bronze Gate?
Right now, the Heavenly Emperor was dead, or was he alive?
…
Under the anxious gaze of countless people, the scene on the screen kept changing.

After the Heavenly Emperor came out of the Lingxiao Hall, he became more violent. Besides, he forced the dismissal of more than 707 experts.
Either those experts sided with Lin Feng and other members of the anti-Heavenly Emperor's alliance or moved to seclusion somewhere on the Lingxuan Continent.
Therefore, the power of the Heavenly Palace became considerably weaker.
It eventually turned out that people like Teng Gang, Xiao Yanran, and Xiao Mei, who were explicitly allies of the Anti-Heavenly Emperor, also openly joined the alliance.
Despite this, Lin Feng and other cultivators from the Anti-Heavenly Emperor Alliance didn’t dare to attack the Heavenly Emperor head-on.
After all, their memories of the Heavenly Emperor defeating everyone single-handedly a hundred years ago remain vivid in their minds to this day.
As a result, this incident significantly reduced their confidence to fight the Heavenly Emperor head-on.
At this time, however, they happened to know about the existence of Qian Linglong, the Foreign Empress.
Having obtained the Ancient Divine Artifact...Linglong Treasure Mirror from her, they finally found a way to restrain the Heavenly Emperor.
Therefore, the Anti-Heavenly Emperor alliance's members began to devise a plan for the final counterattack.

"Yanran, Mei'er, Teng Gang, and Ling'er are too closely related to me. Only when they can take credit for their fighting against the Heavenly Emperor won’t be criticized later."
“Despite Xiao Bai’s efforts, the queen of the Ten Thousand Great Demon Kingdom, was still not accepted by the people of the Lingxuan continent. Therefore, as long as she leads the demon race this time and makes merits, the Demon Kingdom's future will be much brighter.”
"Linglong is a powerhouse in the Eternal Realm. Now that the little girl has the Linglong Treasure Mirror, there will be much less opposition, and she can easily become the Heavenly Emperor."

(On The Lingxuan Continent)
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLooking up at the Heavenly Emperor's increasingly lonely figure and talking to himself alone, Xiao Yanran and the others cried their eyes out.
They felt like a sharp knife had pierced their hearts.
Even at this time, the Heavenly Emperor was still thinking about them. But they didn't believe him even a little bit.
…
"Big brother, I don't deserve any kindness from you. Rather than keeping me alive, it would be much better to let me die." Teng Gang's face was pale, and he couldn't hold back the tears.
But suddenly, Teng Gang's eyes widened. He stared blankly at the sky and mumbled, "Then, what about Ling'er? Why did Big Brother have to be ruthless to Ling'er to the point where only a remnant soul was left?"
Everyone knows Zhao Ling'er's current miserable state.
The Heavenly Emperor ensured that all of them had a favorable outcome. However, Zhao Ling'er was the only one left with a remnant soul and could die at any time.
This makes no sense at all.
In fact, it was well known that Zhao Ling'er had never left the side of the Heavenly Emperor since the beginning.
Moreover, the Heavenly Emperor was unlikely to be ruthless toward Zhao Ling'er, right?
…
As the puzzled Teng Gang pondered this, he suddenly noticed Zhao Ling'er's figure appear on the screen.
(Within The Screen In The Sky)
There were currently no people in the Heavenly Palace… except Zhao Ling'er.
Zhao Ling'er remained calm, carrying on with her daily routine.
"Big Brother, under heaven and earth, we made a vow to never turn our backs on each other, so no matter what you become, I will never leave you."
Inside Lingxiao Hall, seeing Zhao Ling'er's firm gaze, Lin Yan was stunned and couldn't hide it for a moment.
Obviously, he also didn't expect it.
It's amazing that he, the infamous Heavenly Emperor who everyone opposed, still has few people willing to believe him.
Nevertheless, the one who believed in him was also his sworn younger sister.
Yet, it's a pity that he spent all these years elsewhere and cared too little about his sister.
