"Ironwood from the Marvel Family? I heard about this incident, so it was him... And that Lin Yun also got involved?" Yan Jing asked with a face full of surprise.

"If the information I acquired is correct, the individual who is breaking through to the super realm is none other than Xiao Chong!" Venerable Lihuo looked up towards the distant battleship and communicated telepathically.

"Xiao Chong has broken through to the super realm? Wait a minute, if he is breaking through here, and the Super Golden Beast is also here, does that mean that Lin Yun is very likely here too?" Yan Jing's face changed once more.

Despite his surprise at Xiao Chong's breakthrough to the super realm, he wasn't shocked. He and Venerable Lihuo, both Super Warriors, had achieved the super realm for countless years. Xiao Chong, despite having reached that level, was still a newcomer in their eyes.

What shocked him, however, was the possibility that Lin Yun was also present.

"Perhaps, he's on that battleship!" Venerable Lihuo nodded, his gaze still fixated on the distant battleship, as he communicated telepathically.

"I heard that Lin Yun wields the Bloodthirsty Sword, and has considerable strength. If he teamed up with the small Super Golden Beast, they could almost match a second-level Super Warrior. I wonder if this is true..." Yan Jing's face showed an uncertain expression.

Earlier, he had been worried about offending the small Super Golden Beast, and by extension Lin Yun and the Grand Super Golden Beast behind it all, so he had immediately decided to leave with Venerable Lihuo.

Later, when he saw that the small Super Golden Beast didn't hold a grudge against him – probably because it hadn't detected his previous intent to kill – he wasn't in a hurry to leave.

The primary reason, he wasn't in a hurry was because he assumed that Lin Yun and the Grand Super Golden Beast weren't present.

If they were present, why didn't Lin Yun and the Grand Super Golden Beast make a move?

That was his line of thought.

If so, him and Venerable Lihuo staying here for a while shouldn't pose any problems.

However, now that he knew Lin Yun might be here, he couldn't help but feel uneasy.

Lin Yun... did he notice his earlier intent to kill the small Super Golden Beast?

After all, unlike the small Super Golden Beast which is a Star Beast and hence less intelligent despite being a young beast, Lin Yun was entirely human, with close ties to the Immortal Origin Holy Land, and was reputedly well-versed and strong enough to oppose Super Warriors despite his young age. His than a beast.

Should Lin Yun have noticed, would he hold a grudge against him?

"He probably didn't..." Seeing Yan Jing's changing expression, it appeared Venerable Lihuo had thought of something as well. His own face changed, and he quickly communicated telepathically.

Given these circumstances, should they... stay or leave?

If they left, would the other party perceive it as a sign of guilty conscience, and immediately come after them?

"We can't go. We absolutely cannot leave right now." Having come to this conclusion, Venerable Lihuo quickly telepathically communicated with Yan Jing.

"What I'm worried about right now, is whether the small Super Golden Beast attacked Venerable Lingyuan on Lin Yun's orders just so his Bloodthirsty Sword could absorb the essence of a Super Warrior..." Yan Jing slightly nodded in agreement, then continued with a worried expression.

Venerable Lihuo's worry was not lost on him.

If it was indeed as such, they'd have a major problem on their hands.

For the Bloodthirsty Sword to absorb essence from a Super Warrior, Lin Yun would have commanded the small Super Golden Beast to attack Venerable Lingyuan. Who knew if after taking down Venerable Lingyuan, the beast would come after them?

"Surely it wouldn't..." Venerable Lihuo's heart skipped a beat as he communicated telepathically.

Using the Bloodthirsty Sword to absorb the essence of Super Warriors was totally frowned upon. Even if the other party had a strong connection with the Immortal Origin Holy Land, they wouldn't do this... right?

But the more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed.

If not, how did Venerable Lingyuan manage to offend them? Could it be that Venerable Lingyuan's mind was really addled?

"Buzz—"

At that moment, a powerful spatial fluctuation appeared in the nearby void.

A powerful breath resonated.

"A Super Warrior!"

Arrow God Yan Jing and Venerable Lihuo immediately looked towards the origin of the spatial fluctuation.

"Ice God Orlando?"

Venerable Lihuo blurted out.

His title was Venerable Lihuo because his life-bound magic weapon was a divine flame known as Lihuo. It was extremely powerful in both defense and offense.

Ice God Orlando, on the other hand, was a magic god who cultivated in ice magic. Fire and water repelled each other, and so did ice and fire. Although the two of them never had a major conflict, they had left deep impressions on each other. That's why he was able to identify Orlando immediately.

Normally, seeing Ice God Orlando would make Venerable Lihuo more or less uncomfortable – not out of repulsion but due to psychological instinct. It's natural to avoid running into someone with opposing powers at the same level, right?

However, in this moment, Venerable Lihuo was feeling a bit relieved.

At the moment, there was ambiguity on what caused the conflict between Lin Yun's side and Venerable Lingyuan. If Yan Jing's speculation was indeed true, the more Super Warriors who came, the better. The more of them here, the safer they'd feel.

"Venerable Lihuo, Worry Ghost?"

Ice God Orlando immediately spotted Venerable Lihuo.

"Arrow God Yan Jing?"

He then noticed Yan Jing beside Venerable Lihuo.

"Greetings Worry Ghost, Yan Jing..."

Ice God Orlando greeted them both, giving a slight bow.

"Ice God!"

"Long time no see!"

Venerable Lihuo and Arrow God Yan Jing immediately teleported to a spot not too far from Ice God Orlando. As they saluted, they called out with friendly greetings.

This alarmed Ice God Orlando.

He thought, although it was widely known that Venerable Lihuo and Arrow God Yan Jing got along well, his mastery was in ice while theirs was in fire. Given their elemental opposition, could they perhaps bear an antipathy towards him, and were collectively planning to strike him down?

"Buzz—"

At that moment, Ice God Orlando surged with might as he prepared to defend himself fully.

"Worry Ghost, Yan Jing, what is the meaning of this?" he asked quickly.

"Er... nothing, just wanted to greet you!"

"Right, indeed!"

Seeing this reaction, both Venerable Lihuo and Yan Jing couldn't help but feel awkward as they hastened to explain.

"I see..."

Still suspicious, Ice God Orlando didn't let down his guard.

"What happened here?"

Then he looked up at the nearby battle and casually asked. While watching the fight, he was also inquiring about the situation from his information channels on the network.

"This is... a Super Golden Beast?"

The next moment, Ice God Orlando's face drastically changed as he exclaimed in surprise.

The Super Golden Beast was of a sensitive pedigree that he was aware of. A battle between a Super Golden Beast and a human Super Warrior meant that there was much more to the fight than met the eye.

"Venerable Lingyuan?"

Next, he noticed Venerable Lingyuan, who was fighting the Super Golden Beast, and furrowed his brows.

Why was Venerable Lingyuan fighting a Super Golden Beast? Was the beast picking a fight or was Venerable Lingyuan out of his mind?
