Chapter 2216 - 639: Xiao Hei Captured
An Yiqing smiled with eyes curved, leaning in Gu Yelin’s embrace, her smile filled with sweetness.
After the two finished cleaning the dishes, they sat on the living room sofa, discussing the recent events.
"Old Tang from Xuandu City knows the location to unlock the White Tiger Seal, but he won’t tell me until I’ve broken through to become a god." An Yiqing said helplessly.
"It’s okay, I’ll go with you." Gu Yelin responded in a deep voice.
"Hm?" An Yiqing was taken aback, then her eyes lit up brightly as she grabbed Gu Yelin’s clothes, "Ah Lin, you’ve broken through?!"
"Not yet, but the bottleneck has loosened; it should just need a trigger." Gu Yelin briefly explained the enemy attack he encountered abroad, stating that his bottleneck showed a slight shift while saving his comrades.
An Yiqing couldn’t believe it as she looked at Gu Yelin, a Breaking Void to Divinity expert under thirty years old—he should be the first in the world, right?
Her heart filled with joy, yet soon, her face sank.
Before breaking through to become a god, one must endure a Lightning Tribulation. The tribulation’s intensity depends on one’s strength and fortune. This is the most dangerous moment in breaking through to godhood—if succeeded, one becomes invincible; if failed, one turns to ashes, leaving nothing behind.
What would happen with Ah Lin’s tribulation? Will there be any danger?
A large hand gently ruffled her long hair, An Yiqing looked up and met Gu Yelin’s eyes filled with tenderness and a sense of security.
"Don’t be afraid, with Grandpa and the ancestors supporting me, they won’t let anything happen to me."
Her long eyelashes gently trembled, as An Yiqing bit her lip, her eyes full of worry.
"When you return to Xuandu City, I’ll take you to the back mountain to meet the three ancestors. They want to see you." Gu Yelin embraced the young girl, gently patting her back.
"Okay." She answered slowly, lowering her gaze in the man’s embrace, hiding all her worries completely.
She wouldn’t let anything happen to him, never!
The next day, when An Yiqing opened her eyes, Gu Yelin had already left Flower Island. Touching the already cold bed, An Yiqing’s eyes filled with longing and concern. Sitting on the bed with her head down for a long time, she quickly got up, washed her face, and turned to enter the Ancient Space.
The Ancient Space was just the same, with green hills and clear water, gentle breezes, and warm sunshine. No matter how turbulent the outside world was, this place was always a haven for breathing.
Old Jin and Fatty Mao Er, along with the Soul Severing Grass, the three little ones, heard footsteps and ran toward An Yiqing. The Soul Severing Grass, which was acknowledged in the Dragon Clan, had grown stronger since entering the Ancient Space, with even more tender, dripping color.
An Yiqing gave it a particularly memorable name, Little Green.
Because of this name, Old Jin and Fatty Mao Er laughed and rolled on the ground. The simple Soul Severing Grass was proud but had never left the Dragon Clan. It naively thought the name Little Green suited its essence perfectly, so it stayed with it.
Until much later, it learned about something called television, which often played scenes of infidelity, only then did the suffering Soul Severing Grass realize it had been tricked by its unscrupulous master.
"Have you two been feeling unwell recently?" An Yiqing grabbed Fatty Mao Er and Old Jin, who were tumbling on her.
"No, eating and sleeping well, like a pig’s life." Old Jin waved its paw.
Fatty Mao Er also nodded, indicating its health was good.
An Yiqing sighed in relief; ever since learning about these little ones’ identities, she frequently worried about their health. Fortunately, with the protection of this Ancient Space, ailments were cured, and strength was fortified.
"Go and play, I’ll look up some information inside."
Walking into the bamboo house, An Yiqing sat cross-legged before four large boxes. She carefully rummaged through the Sky and Earth boxes and suddenly her eyes lit up, pulling out a thin booklet from the bottom of the Xuan Character Box.
The booklet had only three pages, tattered, yet An Yiqing regarded it as if seeing a rare treasure.
This booklet recorded the method for concocting an Elixir named "Tribulation Pill." Tribulation Pill was specifically used to combat Lightning Tribulations. It was not widely circulated because the materials it required were practically unheard of, mythical. Therefore, people in the Ancient Martial World only considered the Tribulation Pill a legend and paid it no mind.
An Yiqing had casually glanced at this booklet once and felt the Tribulation Pill was too distant from her world, hence hadn’t paid it any mind. Unexpectedly, Gu Yelin might need it soon.
