"What is that person's true identity, Master?"
However, Xian Di responded to Tian Huang's question by shaking his head. "I can't tell you the identity of that person; we have promised not to reveal his identity to anyone in return for the information he leaked to us."
"I see." Tian Huang nodded in understanding. "But where is he now? How can he hide from the heretics who are hunting him?"
"Haha." Xian Di laughed at that. "He is hiding in that mysterious tower."
"Huh?" Tian Huang was shocked to hear that. "Master, didn't you say that that person was a demon? So how could he possibly enter that tower?"
"Little Huang, have you forgotten the identity of this master of yours?" Xian Di asked as he shook his head. "The people who knew that person's identity were us, nature races. We used our nature energy to circumvent the formation in the tower, and we sent him there because it was the safest place for him."
However, Xian Di's answer confused Tian Huang. "Why do you help that person to such an extent? Don't you hate those heretics?"
"Little Huang! Not all humans are good, and not all demons are evil." Shou Zhe said to him. "Even though that person is a demon, he has never done anything cruel to anyone, so my lord and the others chose to protect him."
"Senior Huang, his words are true." Feng Ruxue chimed in. "Like on our home planet, there are lots of bad demons there, but there are lots of good demons there too; even some of our sisters are demons."
Tian Huang nodded in agreement. "You're right. However, I encounter evil demons too often, and they even plan bad things against Yueling, so all of them are evil in my eyes."
"Forget it; we don't need to discuss that person anymore." Xian Di then said to Feng Ruxue. "Remember what I said earlier: you should not appear in public too often, or Hundun will come after you, and the people in this realm will be miserable because of you."
"En, I understand, Senior." Feng Ruxue then sent a voice transmission to her mother and aunt before speaking to Qu Qiyue. "Master, it would be better if we sent them to the sects now, and we will go to Dongfang City after that. Once I get a suitable building for our chamber of commerce, I will return to our residence."
"All right." Qu Qiyue then got up from her seat and spoke to them. "Actually, I still want to talk a lot with all of you, but this matter is very urgent, so I will take my leave now."
"Father, I will go with them, and I will return in a few days."
Tian Huang nodded and ordered Tian Sha. "I want you to meet your uncle in Dongfang City, and you can tell him to track down the heretics who might be hiding there."
"Yes."
After they said goodbye, Qu Qiyue took them away from the Tian Clan, and Xian Di sighed as he watched them leave.
"Why are you sighing, Lord?"
"Nothing." Xian Di answered by shaking his head. "I just didn't expect that several phoenixes have already returned to the upper realms, and their presence will trigger some related prophecies."
"Prophecies?" They were shocked to hear that, as they had never heard anything before.
"Tang Xiao told us about those prophecies, and the source was one of his wives, who was a seer."
"A seer?" They were even more shocked when they heard that. "What exactly are those prophecies, Master?"
"The first prophecy: A man with nine elements will appear in this universe, and the safety of this universe rests on his shoulders."
"What?" Tian Kong and Ran Chenxin cried out in shock upon hearing that someone had nine elements, but Tian Huang was not surprised to hear that.
"Are you serious, Senior? How is it possible for a human to possess nine elements?" Ran Chenxin asked him.
Xian Di then pointed at Tian Huang. "You can ask him, as he should already know the man's identity."
"Who is he, Father?"
Tian Huang sighed softly and told them. "The man in the prophecy was Mo Chen, and it was Tang Chen who told me about this, but you guys must not divulge this matter to anyone else, or he will face great dangers."
Both of them were completely shocked by that, and they didn't think that Ling Yun had nine elements, but their expressions changed to joy after they remembered Tian Yueling's relationship with him.
Xian Di then told them about the second prophecy. "A mythical beast will fall, and its death will awaken the fury of an unparalleled creature, which will throw this universe into darkness and bloodshed."
"Does that mean one of the phoenixes will die?" Tian Kong asked Xian Di as he frowned.
"I don't know whether one of the phoenixes or another mythical beast will die, as Tang Xiao didn't tell us clearly." Xian Di then told them again. "Besides, several realms will disappear from this universe, and many other mythical beasts will die at its hands."
They gasped in shock at Xian Di's last sentence, and Ran Chenxue asked him again. "Did Tang Xiao mention anything about the unparalleled creature?"
Xian Di nodded to her. "The unparalleled creature is a combination of a human, a beast, and a devil."
"What kind of creature is that? How could such a creature exist?"
"I don't know." Xian Di then thought for a moment. "As I said before, the prophecies are related to each other, so I think the key to everything is Mo Chen."
"Hmm? Does that mean Mo Chen is a devil?" Tian Kong asked.
Ran Chenxue immediately denied his question. "That's impossible, husband. Mo Chen is a human, and he has a dragon bloodline, but I don't feel any devil aura from him."
"You're right; I didn't feel any devil aura from Mo Chen." Tian Huang said as he nodded. "However, we don't know much about him either, so I think there's a possibility that he has devil qi, and a devil is much more sinister than a demon."
"Father, I still don't believe that." Ran Chenxue said this to Tian Huang. "Senior Yu is a spirit woman, and she wouldn't possibly be close to Mo Chen if she really had devil qi."
"I hope my guess is wrong." Tian Huang answered with a heavy sigh and asked Xian Di again. "Are there any other phropecies, Master?"
"There's still one more." However, Xian Di was hesitant to tell them. "Forget it; I can't tell you guys about the third phropecy, or things will get out of control, especially since it will only happen after the second one."
They frowned at Xian Di's answer, but none of them tried to urge him, and Tian Huang directly contacted his granddaughter to ask about Ling Yun. However, Tian Yueling could not be contacted, as she was still in the void.
"Hmm?" Xian Di suddenly frowned and looked far away, especially after he felt the presence of two people who had natural energy. "Oh? What are those two elf girls doing in this realm?"
"Two elf girls?"
After hearing that, Tian Huang and the others immediately spread their senses as far as possible, and they found the two elf girls on their flying artifacts, but both of them seemed to be looking for something.
"Who are they, Lord?"
"One of them is Nu Shen, and the other one is her friend, Lyra."
"Princess Nu Shen? Why did she come to this realm?"
"All right, you don't need to think about them, and their business is none of our business." Xian Di then turned to Tian Huang. "Follow me; I will teach you some new things, especially since you have decided to be on Mo Chen's side."
"Yes, Master."
After that, Tian Huang and Shou Zhe immediately followed Xian Di, and Tian Kong left the Tian Clan.

Nu Shen stood at the stern with an annoyed look, and she asked Lyra. "What do we do now? We don't have any acquaintances in this realm, and we also don't know where to look for people closest to Ling Yun."
"Hmm?" Lyra didn't answer her question, and she used her senses to search for some familiar auras. Before long, she pointed towards the northern region. "Princess, let's go there; I sense Ling Yun's aura from that region."
"Hmm?" Nu Shen frowned after hearing that. "Are you sure about that? Didn't you say that he went to the lower realms? So he shouldn't be back now."
Lyra sighed softly before explaining it to her. "Princess, I have met Ling Yun before, so I am quite familiar with his aura, so let's go to that region right now, and we will definitely meet his closest people there."
"Fine! Let's go there now!"
Sometime later, they had arrived in the northern region, and Nu Shen immediately looked at the three women in front of the ice buildings. "Are they really Ling Yun's closest people?"
"Yes." Lyra nodded at her. "Even though I've never met them before, I can sense Ling Yun's aura within their bodies, so I'm sure that they're his closest people."
"I see." Nu Shen then floated down from her flying artifact, and Lyra followed behind her.
"Hmm?" The three women immediately looked up after they felt the presence of the two elf girls, and Lian Bing asked them. "Who are you two? Why did you break into our place?"
