Chapter 465 - Brother’s Destiny Is Six
In the fierce wind, silver hair spread out like a waterfall, fluttering behind her head.
Feng Yu Die closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She inserted her sword into the soil of the flower field in front of her, then took out a hair band from her storage bag and pulled up her hair, tying it into a bundle. At the same time, she said to Zu Lingzhi, who was behind her, "Go to the Heavenly Pavilion to protect Young Master Ye."
"Ah... Miss Feng, let me help..."
Before Zu Lingzhi finished speaking, Feng Yu Die frowned and raised her voice. "Go to the Heavenly Pavilion!!"
Startled, Zu Lingzhi suddenly trembled, lowered her head quickly, and nodded with red cheeks. "Miss Feng, be careful. That woman has a powerful sword technique, and there is also a big black python..."
"I know."
"..."
Zu Lingzhi fell silent as she glanced at Gu Mingxin, who was standing a hundred feet away with her sword in hand. She stepped on her flying sword and turned around to head toward White Jade City.
Feng Yu Die waited for Zu Lingzhi to fly away, then raised her sword and pointed it at Gu Mingxin's face. "I won't allow you to disturb Young Master Ye's tribulation!"
"Huh..." Gu Mingxin looked at the hostility in Feng Yu Die's eyes and pursed her lips. "Why should I disturb my Ye Anping's Nascent Soul formation? I love him so much, how can I disturb him?"
Gu Mingxin raised her index finger slightly.
There was a tremor in the spiritual flower field, and the black python poked its huge head out of the ground and spat out a round object from its mouth.
Head Insect, which was digested to the point where only the head was left, rolled to Gu Mingxin's feet. She kicked it up like a football player and caught it in her left hand.
"Look, I killed him. He's the one who wanted to disturb Ye Anping's tribulation."
Feng Yu Die frowned.
"..."
At this time, Xue'e also floated down from the sky and landed in front of Feng Yu Die, waving her hands to persuade her. "White fool! Mingxin really has nothing to do with those Magical Poison Sect cultivators. She just wants to see Ye Anping. You don't have to stop us."
With a frown, Feng Yu Die looked at the demonic cultivator's head in Gu Mingxin's hand, not daring to let her guard down at all. After thinking for a while, she said, "Then, tie yourself up. I will accompany you here and wait for Young Master Ye to finish his tribulation."
Gu Mingxin raised her head slightly and threw the head in her hand aside. "White fool, have you misunderstood something?"
Feng Yu Die immediately became alert, gripping the sword in her hand tightly.
Gu Mingxin narrowed her eyes. "I'm explaining this to you because I'm not interested in fighting a defeated opponent like you. Moreover, if I kill you, Ye Anping will be angry. I don't want to make him angry. Remember? You owe me your life."
"..."
"Ye Anping is so gentle. Even though you are such a loser, he still didn't abandon you, and he repeatedly tried his best to save you. Do you know how envious I am? He should belong to me."
Xue'e noticed that Mingxin was in a bad mood, and she immediately interrupted her. "Hey! Mingxin, stop talking! I'll explain to her..."
Then, Xue'e looked at Feng Yu Die, trying to convey honesty. She spread her hands and explained, "Feng Yu Die, Mingxin and I really have no intention to harm Ye Anping this time. We are just passing by..."
"Xue'e, playing the zither for a fool, can the fool understand?"
"Mingxin!" Xue'e frowned and glared at Gu Mingxin. "Don't talk!"
Gu Mingxin shrugged, ignoring her. "You are always by Ye Anping's side, but when he was going through the tribulation, you allowed the Magical Poison Sect's Grand Master to come here. Can you protect him? I was the one who killed Head Insect. His parasite formation is not ordinary. If I hadn't found it, Ye Anping would be in danger..."
Seeing Feng Yu Die gripping the sword in her hand, Xue'e's forehead was covered with cold sweat. She rushed forward and kicked Gu Mingxin on the forehead. "Mingxin!! Stop talking!"
Gu Mingxin shooed her away. "I just want this idiot Feng to know that she doesn't deserve to stand beside Ye Anping. Speaking of which, why isn't Liang Xiaoxue here? Compared to you, I'd rather fight her again. Last time, there was a trash who dragged me down..."
Before she could finish her sentence...
Clang---
In the spiritual flower field, a white line cut several feet across and scattered snow-white petals. Gu Mingxin's reaction was surprisingly fast. Her relaxed expression disappeared instantly, and her left hand immediately grabbed the blood-red sword and drew a sword light obliquely in front of her.
Ding---!
Bright sparks burst out in those red eyes with a hint of madness, while the corners of her mouth stretched in an eerie smile as she laughed wildly. "Hahahaha-- you're overestimating your own abilities!!"
"Gu Mingxin, you..." Feng Yu Die gritted her teeth, then raised her sword, took a deep breath, and cursed angrily. "Fuck you!!!"
?
"...Who did you learn this from?"
Ding Ding Ding---
Two figures, one white and one black, cast out sword lights that turned into turbulence and flew in all directions.
Under the sword wind, the snow-white spirit flowers were torn into countless fragments, swirling like snowflakes between the two.
Xue'e hovered in place and suddenly felt exhausted, but there was nothing she could do.
---What are they fighting for!! What are you fighting for?! Just for Ye Anping? Can't we sit down and talk about this kind of thing?! Why are you fighting and killing each other...
Xue'e followed the two afterimages in the flower field in a daze, and then suddenly remembered something: ---Why didn't I see that Golden Fool?
?
As she was wondering, she seemed to sense something and quickly lowered her head to look at the ground directly below.
The next moment, a small golden figure rushed out of the mud and landed an uppercut on Xue'e's chin.
"Ah---!"
"Hah---! Sneak attack!"
Xue'e was sent flying up. Xiao Tian took a deep breath and formed a horse stance in the air. She held her breath, stomped hard, and her figure shot up with a vertical golden trail. With a knee strike, she hit Xue'e's belly, causing her to bend in half, and continuing to fly toward the sky.
"Ugh--"
Xue'e's eyes almost bulged out, but she quickly came to her senses, and several blue veins popped up on her forehead.
"??????... Golden Fool!!!"
Raising her left hand, she punched Xiao Tian in the chest before pulling away, then reached out to draw the wooden sword on her back, rushed forward, and smashed it right on top of Xiao Tian's head.
"Ah!! Ouch!!"
Xiao Tian did not expect this blow, and she bent down on the spot. However, just as she raised her head, the second sword landed on her head again, and she was directly smashed into the ground.
"Hoo... Hoo..."
Suddenly...
Rumble---
After a thunderstorm, a white light appeared on the dark cloud above the Heavenly Pavilion.
Looking up, she understood that Ye Anping's first Nascent Soul lightning tribulation was about to fall. After hesitating for a moment, she turned around and flew in the direction of the Heavenly Pavilion.
Only Ye Anping could persuade the two people fighting in the flower field to stop.
Xiao Tian, who was lying in the flower field after being beaten, rubbed her head. Seeing Xue'e flying straight toward the Heavenly Pavilion, she widened his eyes and stood up immediately. "Black bastard, stop!!!"
...
Rumble---
Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled in the tribulation cloud.
A Spirit Gathering Array had been set up inside the Heavenly Pavilion. Spiritual treasures meant to boost cultivation, the ones that Liang Zhu had obtained from Nangong Cheng's secret vault back then, were placed around it.
After Ye Anping consumed the twenty-two medicinal pills, he sat cross-legged and planted the spiritual roots given by his Zu Yuan into his meridians, almost entirely reshaping them.
Planting someone else's spiritual roots was the same as replacing someone else's organs. The body would more or less reject it. Moreover, this spirit root was a Void Returning cultivator who had lived for more than twenty thousand years.
Ye Anping actually intended to return to the Black Star Sect and find a good place to plant Zu Yuan's root slowly.
At this moment, the Bright Star Sect was invaded by demonic cultivators, and the sect formation was only for defense against large ones, not small ones.
Demonic cultivators in the Nascent Soul stage and above could not enter, but those at the Core Formation stage and some who were proficient in the Origin Returning Spell could pass through freely.
Although these people couldn't threaten the Elders and high-level disciples of the Bright Star Sect Sect, those disciples who were only at the Qi Refining and Foundation Building stage were unable to resist.
Moreover, the attackers were Parasite cultivators, and their techniques were very difficult to deal with when attacking mountains and cities.
Before Zu Yuan left, he handed the sect token to him, hoping that he would temporarily take care of the Bright Star Sect on his behalf and minimize the casualties among the disciples.
But who knew if it was the will of heaven or just bad luck?
As soon as Zu Yuan left, his Nascent Soul tribulation cloud had already formed.
Right now, he couldn't afford to care about what was happening outside the Heavenly Pavilion. He only hoped that his sisters could protect White Jade City while he was in the process of forming his Nascent Soul. Otherwise, if any demonic cultivator rushed into the Heavenly Pavilion, he would surely perish under the Nascent Soul thunder tribulation.
"Huh..."
Ye Anping let out a long breath and slowly opened his eyes. He looked at the tribulation clouds in the sky, and he fell silent for a while. "Six on a scale of ten."
The first thunderbolt of the Nascent Soul tribulation was the most difficult to withstand.
As long as you survived the first step, you could basically be sure of success.
However, among the late Core Formation cultivators from ancient times to the present, nearly 99% of them were turned into dust by the first Nascent Thunder thunder tribulation.
He had now prepared all he could.
If the destined rate of success was six, the remaining four were left to luck.
"I heard there's such a thing as beginner's luck in gambling, I wonder if it's true or not? This will be my first time to have luck in gambling, hehe..."
Ye Anping let out a light breath and pressed his hands together. He poured all the spiritual energy in his body into every inch of his meridians. For a moment, his whole body emitted a faint green light.
Wisps of spiritual energy in the Heavenly Pavilion slowly gathered like fireflies toward the tribulation cloud above his head.
The originally chaotic and shapeless tribulation cloud spiraled and caved in, forming a huge vortex.
The wind blew unrestrained as silver snakes danced wildly in the sky.
It was also at this moment that two little figures, one black and one gold, jumped into the pavilion from outside.
"Black bastard!! I will...?!"
?
Ye Anping looked over and saw Xue'e flying in front with a sword in her hand, while Xiao Tian was chasing after her relentlessly. His eye twitched, but he quickly recovered and closed his eyes again.
He couldn't be distracted now, or he would surely die.
Xue'e, who was flying ahead, glanced up at the sky and saw that the lightning tribulation was about to fall. She immediately stepped on the brakes and turned around, taking out her wooden sword.
Crack---
Xiao Tian didn't expect her to suddenly stop, and she hit Xue'e's wooden sword head-on. Then, Xue'e twisted in the air, raised her foot, and hit Xiao Tian's back, knocking her to the ground.
Dong---
Xue'e immediately rushed over and stepped on Xiao Tian's back, raised her wooden sword, and knocked her on the back of the head.
Bang, bang, bang---
"Golden fool, shut up! Don't disturb him, the lightning tribulation is about to come down!!"
"Woo--"
Xiao Tian reacted when she heard this and immediately covered her mouth.
Xue'e still stomped her face into the ground.
Thunderbolt---
At this moment, a white light flashed in the center of the tribulation cloud.
Boom---
A thunderclap like a dragon's roar, resounded for thousands of miles.
Golden lightning descended from above and swallowed Ye Anping whole.
After a few more breaths, it disappeared without a trace, leaving behind only the scorched yellow ground and the youth who seemed to have walked out of the winter sauna.
Rolling white vapors seeped out from every pore on Ye Anping's body. The Black Star Sect uniform he'd been wearing had disappeared.
Xue'e looked at Ye Anping, holding her breath and pursing her lips.
At this moment, she could not tell whether he had succeeded or not. If Ye Anping had not been able to withstand it, then what was sitting there now would only be a body fried by the lightning.
"Anping!! Ah..."
"Shut up!!"
Xue'e struck the back of Xiao Tian's head again with her sword, then looked up at Ye Anping.
Just like that, about ten breaths later, Ye Anping's expression changed. His eyelids trembled slightly, and he finally opened his eyes, revealing his warm, dark purple eyes that were unusually clear.
"Ha---"
He opened his lips slightly and exhaled a mouthful of golden-tinted spiritual mist. A strange and ecstatic look gradually appeared on his face.
The success rate had been a six out of ten, and now it looked like he got this six.
The tribulation clouds in the sky seemed to be satisfied. They swirled and gradually disappeared. The pavilion immediately returned to the clear sky from when Ye Anping first entered.
Ye Anping's tense shoulders slowly sagged as if he was relieved, but when he caught a glimpse of the Xue'e who was stepping on Xiao Tian, his expression immediately returned to his usual calm.
"Why are you here?"
Xiao Tian quickly reached out to Ye Anping with a tearful and pitiful expression, crying out, "Anping!! She... she bullied me!! Ouch---"
Unexpectedly, Xue'e's sword struck her on the head again.
"Shut up! Golden Fool."
Xue'e glared at Xiao Tian, ??then came back to her senses and said, "Ye Anping! Come with me! Mingxin and that white fool of yours are fighting. You go and stop them."
"..."
Ye Anping did not expect Gu Mingxin to come to the Bright Star Sect. He was a bit confused for a moment, but then he stood up, propping himself on his knees.
Well, let's take one thing at a time.
However, he didn't seem to notice that because of the lightning tribulation, all his clothes were destroyed. When he stood up, Xue'e, who was stepping on Xiao Tian's back, could not help but look at his "Tianchong". She widened her eyes slightly, and her cheeks turned slightly red.
"Well, Ye Anping... clothes... ah------!"
But Xiao Tian seized the opportunity of her momentary negligence. She performed a roundabout move and kicked Xue'e's butt. Then, she turned over and punched upwards with both fists.
"Ay-ha!"
"Ah---! Golden Fool!! Are you sick!!" frёewebηovel.cѳm
Xiao Tian's series of punches was blocked by Xue'e's wooden sword after only the third punch. Then, she turned around and hit her on the forehead.
Bang---
Xue'e kept hitting her head like a wooden fish drum.
"Golden fool! Stop it!!"
Bang, bang, bang---
However, in the next moment, Ye Anping, who had put on a spare set of Black Star Sect uniform, reached out and grabbed her.
"Ah?!"
Xiao Tian found the right opportunity and kicked Xue'e, who was held by Ye Anping in his left hand.
"Hmph!! Black bastard! It's my turn... eh?!"
The next moment, she was caught in Ye Anping's right hand.
Ye Anping looked at the two little figures, one black and one gold, on his left and right. He sighed earnestly and flew toward the exit of the pavilion.
