"The Misty Cloud Palace? I see." Huang Xian narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Can you tell me about this place, Senior? All I know is that it is part of the Divine Moon God Clan's territory and their palace master's name is Ying Xue," Yun Lintian asked.

"They indeed serve the Divine Moon God Clan. The Misty Cloud God, Ying Xue, is a renowned figure in the Holy Lands. Her strength is up there alongside those famous figures," Huang Xian explained briefly.

He looked at Yun Lintian with a hint of doubt. "From what I know, the Misty Cloud Palace is very strict, especially regarding chastity. Are you sure your mother is there?"

This was the third time Yun Lintian had heard this. It made him even more anxious. Could something truly have happened to his mother?

Yun Lintian shook his head and said in a heavy voice, "I have no idea either, Senior. She went back to the palace, promising to return to my father's side a thousand years later."

Huang Xian fell silent. A moment later, he said with a soft sigh, "I'm afraid there's no hope."

"I want to see it with my own eyes," Yun Lintian said firmly.

Huang Xian nodded in understanding. "Although I don't recommend you go there, I fully understand your current mood... How about this? I will accompany you there."

Partly, Huang Xian wanted to repay the debt of gratitude, but he also didn't want to see such a good seedling like Yun Lintian die tragically. Even if he couldn't fight Ying Xue in her territory, Huang Xian was confident in preserving Yun Lintian's life.

"I appreciate your kindness, Senior. However, I don't want you to take a risk. You have many people depending on you. Meanwhile, I am just a nobody. Even if you want to repay the life-saving grace, just taking me to the Holy Lands is enough," Yun Lintian said sincerely.

Yun Lintian now considered Huang Ba a good friend, and he didn't want his grandfather to encounter a mishap because of him.

Huang Xian stared at Yun Lintian for a long time and sighed. "Silly child. At least you should wait until you are strong enough."

"But my mother cannot wait," Yun Lintian said gently. "Although my father has never shown it, I can see that he is suffering. Even if my mother has turned to ashes, I will do everything to take her home."

"Alas…" Huang Xian knew that he couldn't stop Yun Lintian and simply gave up persuasion.

However, he was unwilling to see Yun Lintian die. He thought for a moment and said, "No matter what, I can't let you commit suicide like that. As long as you can resist my attack, I will take you to the Holy Lands."

Yun Lintian looked at Huang Xian for a while and said, "Senior must be proficient in the laws of metal and darkness."

"Yes," Huang Xian was slightly surprised.

Before he could say anything further, Huang Xian suddenly smelled a metallic scent.

In the next second, the entire room had transformed into a world of golden metal.

Huang Xian was genuinely startled. It was the first time he had witnessed such a pure aura of the metal element... Wasn't Yun Lintian proficient in the laws of space and darkness, according to Huang Zheng's report?

Yun Lintian waved his hand, and darkness immediately descended.

Huang Xian instantly discovered that his senses had been sealed. Even though he didn't channel his power, it should be impossible for Yun Lintian to seal his perception. The only explanation was that Yun Lintian's profound law of darkness was superior to his.

It was also at this moment that Huang Xian truly understood how Yun Lintian defeated Venerable Darkness.

Yun Lintian retracted his power, and everything returned to its original state.

Huang Xian took a deep look at Yun Lintian and asked, "There must be more, am I correct?"

He refused to believe that Yun Lintian was only proficient in three laws. This made him even more reluctant to let Yun Lintian go to the Misty Cloud Palace alone.

Yun Lintian smiled and said nothing.

Huang Xian remained silent for a while and said, "Alright. I will bring you there. But we need to wait until the competition is over. The gate to the Holy Lands is currently sealed to prevent people from sneaking in."

"Thank you, Senior." Yun Lintian cupped his fists.

Huang Xian waved his hand. "Just call me Grandpa Huang. I want to have a powerful grandson. Haha!" he laughed.

"Grandpa Huang," Yun Lintian said with a smile. "Huang Ba is good. He only needs time."

Huang Xian snorted with dissatisfaction. "Don't talk about him. You don't know how naughty he is."

Yun Lintian laughed gently without saying anything further.

Two weeks passed by in the blink of an eye, and the competition was about to begin.

The air in Divine Light City crackled with anticipation as the day of the competition dawned. A palpable energy surged through the streets, a symphony of clashing swords, booming voices, and the thrumming of countless hearts beating in unison.

The Colosseum, a colossal structure of gleaming white marble, stood as a silent sentinel, its towering gates ajar, inviting the brave and the ambitious to step into its hallowed arena. Within its vast bowl-shaped interior, countless seats rose in tiers, each one offering a panoramic view of the battleground below. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Yun Lintian, Huang Zheng, and Huang Ba made their way through the throng of cultivators, their footsteps echoing on the polished stone floor. The air was thick with the scent of sweat, anticipation, and a hint of fear.

"How is it?" Huang Zheng asked.

"It's as if people from the entire Divine Realm have gathered here," Yun Lintian responded, looking at the crowd.

"Haha! Since you don't have to participate in the competition anymore, let's find a seat over there," Huang Zheng chuckled.

Huang Ba looked at Yun Lintian enviously, but he didn't feel bad about it. Even if Huang Xian didn't take Yun Lintian to the Holy Lands, there was no problem for him to win a ticket through the competition.

"Brother Yun?"

At this moment, a familiar male voice resounded from the side.

Yun Lintian looked over and saw Xiao Hu looking at him in surprise.

"Brother Xiao," Yun Lintian offered a greeting smile.

Xiao Hu walked over with a few people behind him. "It's good to see you're safe. Honestly, I regretted telling you about the black market. I was afraid something would happen to you."
