Everyone was gazing up toward the sky.
So when Little Fish soared into the air, she immediately drew everyone's attention.
"That's Fishy of the Immortal Sea — Fishy from the Immortal Sea Fish Clan! She's really here!"
In an instant, the various factions began buzzing with discussion.
But Little Fish gazed up into the high sky: "Shen Bai, have you caused enough trouble yet?"
The moment those words left her lips, a response came immediately from the void above — from that mysterious figure.
"Fishy."
"So you really are here."
"Don't worry, just wait for this god to deal with this clueless old fool, and then I'll take you back."
Hearing this, everyone was stunned. They had never expected this powerful mysterious being to be acquainted with Little Fish.
And after catching sight of Little Fish, even his tone had changed — it was obvious the two shared a close relationship.
Even Zhao Daobin, who hovered in the void above with one arm already severed, couldn't help but look toward Little Fish.
"Enough."
Little Fish spoke again, this time in a commanding tone.
That made everyone break into a cold sweat on her behalf. Such an arrogant existence — and she dared to address him with that kind of attitude?
But to their surprise, the mysterious figure responded almost immediately, and with a remarkably good attitude: "Fine, fine, fine. Understood."
Clang— As his voice faded, a beam of golden light shot straight toward the Ouyang Heavenly Clan's Heaven Sealing Formation.
The formation that the Hell Sect had been utterly powerless against was like paper before that golden light — it pierced straight through.
But almost at once, the golden light transformed into a wave of suction that enveloped Little Fish. By the time everyone realized what was happening, she had already been carried away by the golden light, drawn into the starry sky.
"Don't even think about escaping, you insects. This god will be back soon enough to deal with you all."
The mysterious figure's voice echoed once more.
But the colossal golden statue began to dissipate — it seemed he had truly departed.
Seeing this, the various factions immediately fled in haste.
Zhao Daobin, however, paid no attention to his severed arm, letting the blood continue to seep out as he stared in the direction the figure had gone, his eyes brimming with unwillingness and churning fury.
Unlike the others, he could sense the direction in which the mysterious figure had departed.
Meanwhile, Little Fish arrived upon a golden war chariot. Nothing was pulling it, yet it moved at tremendous speed.
As it happened, the Divine Body Heavenly River was one of the closest heavenly rivers to the Primordial Killing Sea.
However, although the chariot was heading toward the Divine Body Heavenly River, its precise destination was not the Golden River Upper Realm where Chu Feng and the others had encountered the God Clan — it was a far larger upper realm known as the Pingyuan Upper Realm.
This Pingyuan Upper Realm was not only home to the Divine Body Heavenly Palace's forces, but also housed a multitude of other factions. It was the most densely populated upper realm in the entire Divine Body Heavenly River.
Little Fish was not surprised by this direction — she seemed to have been prepared for it all along.
Seated beside her was a golden-haired young man. This was none other than Shen Bai of the God Clan — the very one who had clashed with Zhao Daobin moments ago.
"Heh heh, Fishy, those insects were scared witless. Did you see that?"
Shen Bai grinned at Little Fish, clearly quite pleased with himself.
But Little Fish was visibly displeased: "We agreed — no causing trouble when we came out."
As it turned out, Shen Bai had wanted to go out and see the world for some time now. He had deliberately staged the whole act with Little Fish as a pretense.
In reality, he had been the one to let Little Fish out in the first place, and then followed her under the guise of searching for her.
But once he emerged from the Golden River Upper Realm, he had been completely unable to find her.
It was only when the stele in the Primordial Killing Sea displayed the name "Fishy of the Immortal Sea" that he had rushed over.
"This god didn't cause any trouble," Shen Bai protested. "I only wanted to watch the show. It was those insects who couldn't read the room and actually attacked me first. This god couldn't very well let the God Clan's reputation be tarnished, so naturally I had to teach them a lesson."
