Chapter 190 - An Additional Heavenly Tribulation (2/2)

“She’s only ascending to become an Earth Immortal. There are so many disciples in the sect, yet she’s the first to go through such a Heavenly Tribulation. Why is that so?” Lonemoon could not figure it out. What happened to the female lead being attractive? Was the female lead to be treated like this? Did the author know this?

Just as Lonemoon pondered all these matters, Lan Hua flew down with Radish on his back. He was in the rear mountain, so he managed to make it in a short time.

“Good Heart, why did you call for me?”

“Little Big Sister!” Radish had made a comrade and upgraded from hanging onto people’s thighs to hanging on their backs. It jumped down from Lan Hua’s back and leapt toward Shen Ying, as fast as a bullet.

Then… it stuck its head straight into the soil behind her.

Shen Ying had stepped forward. With a serious expression, she waved Lan Hua over. “Boss Lan, come and look at this.”

“Look at what?” Lan Hua was obviously confused. Everyone did not know what Shen Ying was getting at either. “What’s so interesting about a Heavenly Trib… Eh?”

He paused and looked with surprise at the person within the tribulations.

“Who is that lady? Why does she have demonic Qi in her?” Others might not be able to tell, but he was a demon and thus was extremely sensitive to demonic Qi. There wasn’t much, but it was obvious that a thin layer of demonic Qi surrounded the lady. He could also tell that the demonic Qi was coming from inside of her. Yet, she was an immortal cultivator.

“Demonic Qi!” Lonemoon exclaimed. He remembered Xuan Tong’s identity, then realised why Shen Ying called Lan Hua over. “Could that be the reason why she triggered the Heavenly Tribulation when she was ascending to become an Earth Immortal?”

“She’s an Earth Immortal?” Lan Hua paused. Then, he nodded. “That’s possible. This is the first time I’m seeing something like this as well. Normally, immortal Qi and demonic Qi would never complement each other. Yet, they are co-existing in her body. That might be the reason why she triggered the Heavenly Tribulation when she ascended into immortality. That lightning tribulation must be for the demonic Qi in her body.” Indeed, with each strike of lightning, a little bit of her demonic Qi dissipated.

Lan Hua looked on for several moments and frowned. “but… the demonic Qi seems to be coming from her primordial spirit. The Heavenly Tribulation would not be able to completely get rid of it unless…”

“It strikes and destroys her primordial spirit,” Yi Qing finished Lan Hua’s sentence.

Lan Hua nodded. Everybody present suddenly looked sick, especially Qi Chengyu.

“Who exactly is this lady? Does she belong to the demon race?” Lan Hua could not help but ask. She had demonic Qi in her primordial spirit, yet only immortal Qi in her dantian. She was also trained in immortal techniques. “I’ve heard of immortals falling to become demons, but I have never heard of demons ascending to become immortals.”

“Do you have any solutions?” Lonemoon ignored his question.

“I do…” Lan Hua became squeamish. “But it’s a bit troublesome.”

“What’s the solution?” Qi Chengyu asked.

“Drain all her demonic Qi into my body!” He was not going to complain that he had too much demonic Qi. “But I would need to make contact with her primordial spirit before I can completely drain her of her demonic Qi.”

Qi Chengyu’s heart leapt. “Your Majesty Lan Hua, please save Little Tong!”

“No!” Lan Hua rejected her. “I don’t know her very well and I would have to go into the tribulations to save her. I wouldn’t-”

“Boss, save her!” Shen Ying cut in.

“Alright!”

Just after he answered her and before he could stop himself, Lan Hua jumped into the tribulations.

The crowd: “…”

Motherf*cker, how he hated his good heart!
