Chapter 2286 - A Stormy Return Journey
When Su Yi first arrived in the Southern Flame Divine Continent, he planned to visit the Red Dust Demon Lands at some point, in part to get revenge, and in part to retrieve the treasures they’d stolen.
Who could have guessed that Yan Shuiming of Purple Mist Grotto would take the Undying divine tree before Su Yi got the chance?

Su Yi had a strong premonition that Yan Shuiming had challenged the Red Dust Demon Lands precisely because he hoped to acquire the tree.

Could it be that Yan Shuiming claimed the tree as his prize... because of me?
Su Yi suddenly recalled the old man who just wouldn’t die and his disciple, the two members of Clear Breeze Daoist Temple.

“But Yan Shuiming is the first Greater God to challenge a top orthodoxy, which is why he’s drawn so much attention.”
Elder Wei sighed. “The God Domain is increasingly tumultuous. Disciples of unknown territories are cropping up all over the place, but that’s not all. Terrifying existences who’ve long since vanished into seclusion are coming back out into the open, too.
“Every top faction of the God Domain has begun preparing. Some orthodoxies have even long since made alliances with factions from spacetime forbidden zones.
