The red-clothed old woman slowly walked in with a cold expression. Although there wasn't any Spiritual Energy fluctuation around her, no one dared to belittle her. Being able to survive in such a dangerous place like the Sacred Abyss Continent, most of them had keen eyesight. So they could naturally sense how terrifying this red-clothed old woman was.
However, the gazes of the Great Thousand Pavilion only paused on the extraordinary old woman for a few breaths before they were attracted by a silhouette behind her.
Under the gazes of the crowd, there was a girl in purplish clothes. She had a tall and slender figure, especially her pair of straight and round breasts, which were wrapped by her slim-fitting trousers, gave off a soul-stirring sense of beauty.
She had an exceptionally bright and beautiful face. Her beautiful eyes were bright and moving, like the stars in the sky, emitting an endless youthful vigor. Her fine black hair was pulled into a ponytail. Her slender and soft ponytail bounced gently as she strode forward, drawing a proud arc in the air.
This was an extremely beautiful girl. Furthermore, this kind of beauty was not the delicate beauty of an ordinary girl. Instead, it was a kind of valiant and heroic appearance that made people's eyes light up. Her slightly pursed red lips were slightly raised, filled with a kind of pride.
Many gazes in the Great Thousand Pavilion were blazing as they looked at that girl. Although the silver-haired girl from before was a little taller in terms of appearance, the former's valiant bearing was also tempting to others.
Although they were tempted, no one dared to tease her. That's because the old lady's cold gaze could extinguish the fire in anyone's heart.
At this moment, Mu Chen and Luo Li also had unexpected expressions on their faces as they stared at the prideful and radiant girl.
That's because that familiar face belonged to Wen Qingxuan, whom they had met during the Five Academy Battle.
"I never thought that she would be from the Northern Domain's Wen Clan." Luo Li muttered in astonishment. The Northern Domain's Wen Clan had only risen in the Great Thousand World a thousand years ago. In terms of history, they naturally couldn't be compared to the Luo God Clan. However, the Wen Clan's current strength had already become one of the supreme forces in the Great Thousand World.
"With such a background, why would she come to Wanhuang Lingyuan?" Mu Chen asked in puzzlement.
"It's said that the Northern Domain's Wen Clan is behind Wanhuang Lingyuan." Luo Li said in a low voice.
Only then did Mu Chen understand why Wen Qingxuan would appear in the Myriad Phoenix Spiritual Academy with such a layer of relationship.
As they conversed, the group of people that had entered the Great Thousand Pavilion had already arrived before the counter under the lead of the old lady. At this moment, Wen Qingxuan, who had been indifferent, suddenly stopped in her tracks as she looked at the man and woman before her with disbelief in her eyes.
Beside Wen Qingxuan, there were several men and women following behind her. However, it was clear that their positions were all centered around the former. At this moment, when she suddenly stopped, they also followed suit and stopped.
"Qingxuan, what's wrong?"
Beside Wen Qingxuan, a white-robed man gently asked with a smile. He had a handsome appearance, which made him seem a little imposing. Furthermore, judging from the powerful Spiritual Energy fluctuations that were faintly being emitted from his body, he was actually in the Quasi-Perfected Earth Sovereign Realm. Clearly, even in the Wen Clan, this white-robed man's position wasn't low.
However, Wen Qingxuan did not pay any attention to him as she looked in astonishment at the smiling Mu Chen and Luo Li standing before her. After a brief moment, she finally cried out involuntarily, "Luo Li?
Mu Chen?! "
"Qingxuan, it's been a long time." Luo Li lightly smiled.
"I never thought that I would see you here."
Mu Chen sighed with a smile. Back then, in the Great Spiritual Academy Tournament, they had gone from strangers to familiarity with Wen Qingxuan. In the end, they even cooperated and fought alongside each other, experiencing many battles.
However, after the Five Academy Battle ended, they had gone their separate ways. They initially thought that they would never meet again, but they never expected that they would meet here today.
"It's really the two of you!"
Happiness erupted from Wen Qingxuan's beautiful eyes as she took two steps forward. Unable to contain her happiness, she extended her jade-like arms, wanting to hug the two of them. However, just as Mu Chen was about to extend his hand to receive her embrace, Wen Qingxuan suddenly changed her hand into an elbow, sending an elbow strike smashing against his chest.
Mu Chen held onto his chest as he took two steps back and helplessly flung his lips aside.
"Trying to take advantage of me? Dream on."
Wen Qingxuan rolled her eyes at Mu Chen before she stretched her arms out to hug Luo Li's waist and exclaimed, "Luo Li, you're so beautiful that I don't even dare to recognize you now."
She wasn't lying. The current Luo Li had undergone a significant change compared to when she was in Hokuang Reiwon. In addition to her experiences over the years and the influence of the Luo Shen Celestial Body, the current her was stunningly beautiful.
Luo Li pursed her rosy lips and smiled. Anyone could tell that she was happy to meet Wen Qingxuan here. That's because she missed the carefree time in Hokuang Reiwon. Even the friends that she made back then were precious in her eyes.
"Why are you still together with that fellow, Mu Chen? How is that fellow worthy of you!" Wen Qingxuan cast a glance at Mu Chen before she bitterly said to Luo Li.
Mu Chen's face instantly turned black.
Luo Li covered her mouth as she chuckled. When she looked at Mu Chen with her glass-like eyes, there was a trace of ridicule in them.
"Qingxuan, is this a friend of yours?"
Just as Wen Qingxuan, Luo Li and Mu Chen were reminiscing about the past, a voice interrupted their conversation. In the next instant, the handsome male dressed in white walked up, a faint smile hung on his face as he looked towards Mu Chen and Luo Li.
"Nice to meet you guys. I am Wen Ziyu, and I'm also from the Wen Clan."
That man's eyes were filled with kindness, and it wasn't fake, which made it easy for others to have a good impression of him.
When he looked at Wen Qingxuan, the emotions in his eyes showed that he was pursuing the latter.
Mu Chen and Luo Li had a good impression of that person, so they nodded their heads with a smile.
"I am Mu Chen."
"Luo Li."
On the other hand, Wen Qingxuan glared at Wen Ziyu. She didn't seem to care about the latter at all, which made the latter bitterly smile.
At this moment, the old woman in red slowly walked over. She coldly looked at Luo Li before she nodded her head and said in a hoarse voice, "What a beautiful girl."
Then, she swept a glance at Mu Chen, but she didn't say a word and directly flew over. Her disregard was obvious.
However, Mu Chen wasn't the slightest bit angry because he could sense that the red-clothed old lady wasn't targeting him. She seemed to be this cold to any man.
"Celestial Chi Yan, you're pretty quick this time." The old woman's cold gaze locked onto Celestial Chi Yan.
"Heh, Matron He, the ancestor of your Wen Clan isn't in the Sacred Abyss, so why do you guys always come?" Celestial Chi Yan laughed.
"The Primordial Sacred Abyss doesn't belong to just anyone. So why can't my Wen Clan come for such an opportunity?" The old woman called Matron He sneered.
Celestial Chi Yan rolled his eyes. He had no intention of arguing with this old woman, who was indifferent to any man.
Matron He of the Wen clan did not waste any more time with Celestial Chi Yan. She turned to the grey-robed old man at the counter and said, "Elder Wan Feng, give these kids a Demon Slayer Badge too."
The grey-robed old man lazily nodded his head and waved his hand. A few breaths later, several Demon Slayer Tokens flew towards Wen Qingxuan's party.
Wen Qingxuan received the Demon Slayer Token and looked at Mu Chen and Luo Li. "You guys are also here for the Primordial Sacred Abyss?"
Mu Chen and Luo Li nodded their heads.
"Great, I never expected that we would have the opportunity to cooperate again after so many years!" Wen Qingxuan chuckled.
Mu Chen looked at Wen Qingxuan and realised that the latter had also stepped into the Lesser Earth Sovereign Realm. Evidently, her strength had greatly increased after returning to the Wen Clan.
"It's good to have the backing of a supreme force." Mu Chen couldn't help sighing in his heart.
But judging from the current situation, the Primordial Sacred Abyss seemed to have attracted many supreme forces. The Primordial Sacred Abyss had yet to appear, so who knew how many powerful teams would appear at that time.
It looked like the competition in the Sacred Abyss this time would be exceptionally intense.
"Let's go and find a place to rest." Celestial Chi Yan waved his hand towards Mu Chen and Luo Li, intending to bring them away.
Mu Chen nodded his head and wanted to bid his farewell to Wen Qingxuan. But at this moment, a commotion suddenly resounded in the Great Thousand Pavilion.
Everyone in the huge and spacious building looked towards the entrance in astonishment.
Mu Chen had also sensed it and raised his head. He saw three teams stepping into the Great Thousand Pavilion at the same time. The three of them had an extraordinary bearing and when they appeared, a formless pressure had enveloped the entire pavilion.
In the face of such pressure, even the wily old foxes who had experienced countless life-and-death situations on the Sacred Abyss Continent wore a grave expression, their eyes filled with wariness.
Mu Chen looked at the three teams that stepped into the Great Thousand Pavilion and his pupils abruptly narrowed. That's because he saw the emblem of a black pagoda on the robes of those three teams.
He wasn't unfamiliar with that black pagoda, since it was the Nine-layered Pagoda!
In the entire Great Thousand World, there was only one clan that could use the Nine-layered Pagoda as their clan emblem, one of the Five Ancient Clans, the Ancient Buddha Clan!
Those three powerful teams were from the Ancient Buddha Clan!
