The cold and harsh voice reverberated throughout the entire main hall, clearly entering everyone’s ears!

Almost everyone looked over in unconcealable shock. Chu Liuyue did not dissolve her agreement with Tuan Zi? How is that possible?! Wasn’t she forced to break her connection with Tuan Zi a few months ago? Back then, Yu Qian was personally in charge of it! But now, he actually said that… they didn’t?!

Upon hearing this, Chu Liuyue’s heart sank.

Previously, they had hidden this very well, and Yu Qian had never noticed it. However, she didn’t expect that Tuan Zi opening her meridian would cause a huge change in her force, exposing the matter!

Without speaking, Yu Qian immediately took action!

Vigorous and shocking holy force suddenly flew out toward Chu Liuyue!

Whir!

But before that force touched the halo, it was immediately stopped.

The bright and dark holy force instantly killed it! Almost at the same time, Rong Xiu’s low and cold voice sounded. “Yu Qian, how dare you!”

Upon hearing this, Yu Qian flashed white.

In his anger, he actually forgot that this was the Emperor’s force! Now that he suddenly took action, wasn’t he offending the Emperor?!

“Emperor, forgive me!” He immediately looked at Rong Xiu. “I didn’t do it intentionally, but this Shangguan Yue is too daring and impetuous! Previously, I had once forced her to break the agreement with that red-gold heavenly phoenix. I didn’t expect her to lie to everyone—”

“That’s because you’re useless,” Rong Xiu interrupted him. He said every single word with tremendous suppression, almost suffocating them.

Yu Qian’s heart beat harshly.

Getting scolded by the Emperor for being useless in front of all these people was an utter humiliation. The most important thing was he couldn’t retaliate.

At that time, he did personally supervise and stared at them while they dissolved their agreement! He really thought that the matter had ended successfully. Who knew Chu Liuyue did this!?

From then until now… It had been such a long time, but he didn’t discover anything amiss!

Yu Qian’s face was as though it had been harshly slapped. It hurt badly.

“Nobody is allowed to interrupt those becoming deities.” Rong Xiu’s expression was nonchalant, and his voice was cold. “Those who defy this… shall die!”

…

His sentence caused the entire Fantasy Divine Hall to fall into dead silence.

Yu Qian clenched his fists tightly and was very anxious.

If something happened and the Divine Master blamed him, he would have to be responsible for it! However, the Emperor had already spoken with an insistent attitude. Unless he was really tired of living, he would not defy the Emperor’s orders and forcefully take action against Chu Liuyue!

However, am I supposed to just watch her? Let her become a deity?

Yu Qian couldn’t help but turn around to look at the Divine Master.

But perhaps he was afraid of the Emperor, so the Divine Master did not say a word.

After much thinking, Yu Qian clenched his teeth. “I’ll bring her over first!”

Then, he turned around and quickly left. Anyway, the Divine Master and the rest are here. Even if Chu Liuyue and Tuan Zi’s agreement isn’t dissolved, they will have a way by then. After all, the current Tuan Zi was too important to the Divine Master…

Yu Qian’s figure quickly disappeared outside the door.

After he left, the crowd left at the main hall exchanged glances. Finally, their gazes all landed on Chu Liuyue. What method did this Chu Liuyue use to lie to Yu Qian?

Shangguan Jing and the rest were filled with worry. Yu Qian’s reaction was huge. He might do something to her. Even if she can temporarily escape, then… What will happen after she becomes a deity? At that time, she will have to face huge troubles!

Chu Liuyue closed her eyes. When she opened them again, her eyes were calm.

Originally, she didn’t think that she could hide this the entire time. This matter would be discovered sooner or later, but an extremely strange time was chosen.

Now, she only hoped that Tuan Zi was safe and sound. It wasn’t too late to solve everything after she became a deity!

…

Phoenix Mountain.

A tiny figure was currently wrapped in the red-golden fire.

The fire burned intensely. The scorchingly high temperature caused the surrounding space to be contorted.

Not far away before her, that Heaven-Wrecking Holy Seed flowed with the wind.

Under the red-golden fire’s burning, the soft green leaves became even more vibrant.

Tuan Zi closed her eyes. The red-gold heavenly phoenix clan’s totem gradually surfaced on her brows.

At some moment, a strange sound came from her body.
Finally—

She suddenly opened her eyes! That pair of blackberry-like eyes were filled with bright fire!

A tremendous suppression exploded from her surroundings!

Eighth meridian… open!

…

At the same time, Miao Zhen—who was standing outside Phoenix Mountain’s barrier—detected this commotion. He knitted his brows slightly and looked at Phoenix Mountain with a complicated gaze.

“It was actually… so fast…” he muttered softly.

In actual fact, although he left Phoenix Mountain after bidding farewell to Tuan Zi, he didn’t go far and stood guard here the entire time.

Originally, he thought that it would take some time for Tuan Zi to open her eighth meridian. Who knew that it was much earlier than expected?

Standing here, with the barrier in between, he couldn’t see the situation inside clearly. However, that shocking ripple could not be hidden.

Tuan Zi… had indeed successfully opened her eighth meridian!

Miao Zhen’s gaze turned. He looked at the Record of the Million Gods quietly floating in the air above the Fantasy Divine Hall. “They indeed didn’t dissolve their agreement…”

Inside the Fantasy Divine Hall, Chu Liuyue was preparing to become a deity.

On Phoenix Mountain, Tuan Zi was preparing to open her meridian.

As they urged each other’s successes, other than the agreement being present, there was no other possibility.

Actually, he faintly had this guess early on but did not have a chance to verify it. Now, he finally could confirm it.

However… those people in the Fantasy Divine Hall should already know, right?

Just as this thought flashed across his mind, a figure rushed out of the Fantasy Divine Hall and came over—Yu Qian!

Miao Zhen’s heart tightened. Seeing Yu Qian’s behavior, it seems like the situation is worse than predicted…

As he thought, Yu Qian had already arrived.

Seeing Miao Zhen, Yu Qian was also taken aback. However, he just knitted his brows and did not care much about Miao Zhen as he walked straight into Phoenix Mountain!

This place was under his charge, so he could naturally come and go as he wished.

Miao Zhen originally wanted to greet him, but seeing this situation, he swallowed his remaining words.

He faintly felt uneasy.

…

Tuan Zi sighed deeply. After opening the eighth meridian… I am indeed different from before!

Suddenly, she paused in her actions and turned around.

“…Hong Yao?” she called out with uncertainty.

She pouted, raised her small hand, and did not speak. If Hong Yao appears now and apologizes to me, I will forgive it!
