Chapter 166 - Watch My Eyes And Act According To The Hints (1/2)
“I’ll wait for you ahead. I’ll wait for you. You…”
Wait? My foot!
In Li Changshou’s eyes, the raging lightning, the flying electric arcs, and the shock waves that filled the sky were all toxic gaseous explosions!
As a response, Li Changshou cupped his hands and turned around to cast Earth Escape.
Goodbye. Farewell. We will not meet again!
Li Changshou had given the Faraday Cages to Youqin Xuanya for the Heavenly Tribulation. As her senior brother, Li Changshou had given Youqin Xuanya a small reward for attracting the Dao runes of the Saint that day.
Li Changshou felt that it had something to do with the fact that he had gotten the Saint’s attention and made the Saint remember him.
Now, half of the three sects’ leaders had arrived. Hundreds of Immortal Sects of the Three Schools were gathered there. Youqin Xuanya had used the Faraday Cage to resist a Heavenly Tribulation, which was already a huge risk for him.
However, Li Changshou did not mind that. It was because he had been careless previously. When he had given the Faraday Cage to Youqin Xuanya, he had not considered the current situation. That was his own mistake. Youqin Xuanya was not to be blamed.
The problem is, why did she mention my name when she was transcending the tribulation!?!
Am I brothers with the Heavenly Dao? Would the power of the Heavenly Tribulation be weakened on my account? Li Changshou’s heart was in a dilemma. When using the Earth Escape, his speed was neither fast nor slow. He was halfway through when he secretly fumbled back.
He still had something to tell youqin Xuanya. Otherwise, he might really cause trouble for himself.
The logic was a little complicated.
The Faraday Cage could withstand a Heavenly Tribulation. Youqin Xuanya has already demonstrated it and the Heavenly Dao had agreed to it.
If word about the Faraday Cage were to spread in the Primordial World, the success rate of the tribulation might increase by a lot. Over time, the number of immortals would increase, and the number of variables in the world would increase by a great margin.
That might cause numerous tribulations to arrive earlier with greater power.
When that happens, Li Changshou, the founder of the Faraday Cage, will be implicated by karma!
That thing could only be used in the small social circle he was in.
Li Changshou thought about it carefully and tried to deduce Youqin Xuanya’s thoughts. He was prepared to persuade her later.
At the same time, he had already secretly sent a voice transmission to Xiong Lingli, telling her to hide in a corner far away and that he would meet her later…
At that moment, a large number of immortal senses were definitely watching Youqin Xuanya. Li Changshou did not approach her. Instead, he emerged from a bamboo forest ten kilometers away.
Like many other Qi Refinement cultivators of the same generation, Li Changshou stood with his hands behind his back and stared at Youqin Xuanya, who had just survived the Thunder Tribulation and was bathing in the immortal light.
Youqin Xuanya seemed to have entered a mysterious realm. She immediately closed her eyes and focused… Ascension?
Li Changshou frowned and waited patiently for a while. When Youqin Xuanya opened her eyes to search for him, he used her immortal senses to send a few instructions to her.
“Junior Sister, if you have an epiphany in your heart, you shall immediately meditate and cultivate. The Immortals outside will pull you out. If someone asks about the birdcage, say that I gave it to you. Say that I found this item from the ancient books in the sect. There were originally only a few of them. Now, there are only two left. There is too much karma involved and if word about it is spread, the consequences will be unimaginable. Of course, don’t think too much about it. I only gave you this Dharma artifact because I thought that we were fellow disciples. I do not harbor any designs on you. Hurry up and gain some enlightenment. This should be a great opportunity for you.”
Youqin Xuanya’s eyes flickered when she heard that. Her immortal senses quickly found Li Changshou’s traces…
Li Changshou nodded at her and walked out of the bamboo forest.
This time, the words ‘fellow disciples’ directly expressed his att.i.tude.
He refused to believe that Youqin Xuanya would misunderstand further!
In the sky, Youqin Xuanya, who was emitting a crystalline glow and had taken a few steps forward beautifully, watched Li Changshou’s back with her immortal senses. She sighed softly in her heart…
Senior Brother’s back view always looks so carefree. He let me use such an expensive item but he would not let me repay him.
Yet, I was still thinking about how I could repay Senior Brother for giving me the birdcage to save me from the Heavenly Tribulation.
From now on, I will repay you with my life.
Youqin Xuanya bowed towards the direction Li Changshou had left. Then, she closed her eyes and sat cross-legged on the auspicious cloud. She entered the Dao enlightenment realm with pleasant immortal music.
Ascension.
At the same time, Li Changshou kept thinking
There might be immortals outside looking for the Sect Leader…
Such an item that could withstand a Heavenly Tribulation was indeed wonderful enough for the great immortals to lower themselves and exchange or request for one from the Immortal Du Sect.
He was currently in the painting and could not go out to deal with it…
When his master was undergoing the tribulation, he had used the Faraday Cage under the watchful gazes of many people. There would definitely be people who knew about it, be it the sect executives or the elders.
For now, he could only rely on the paper effigy to inform Ling’e to meet Jiu s.h.i.+ and contact Uncle-Master Jiu Wu through Jiu s.h.i.+…
Li Changshou’s heart stirred and he got to it immediately. He multi-tasked and the paper effigy hiding beside his junior sister was instantly activated.
However, just as the paper effigy was about to be activated, Li Changshou heard the sounds of water splas.h.i.+ng and the tune that Lingle often hummed during her bath… Li Changshou could not be bothered to avoid trouble since it was a pressing matter.
“Junior Sister!”
The paper effigy shouted via voice transmission. Ling’e immediately s.h.i.+vered and dipped her head into the water bucket. Numerous bubbles appeared.
After a while, Ling’e, who was already dressed neatly, hurriedly closed the array formations around the straw hut. She used her Dharma powers to dry her long hair and quickly flew to the Heaven-Breaking Peak.
On the other side…
When the unusual phenomenon around Youqin Xuanya dissipated, a golden beam of light shot from the sky and landed on Youqin Xuanya.
The golden light did not disturb her. It took her away from the painting and placed her in the Immortal Du Sect’s seating area…
Everyone from the Immortal Du Sect surrounded her immediately.
However, Sect Leader Ji Wuyou quickly activated a barrier and protected Youqin Xuanya.
“Don’t scare her. She’s getting her own opportunity.”
One of the elders smiled and said, “This means that she has ascended. Xuanya might be able to break through the Essence Immortal realm and become a Perfected Immortal.”
“Disciple-Niece Youqin is really impressive.”
“I should reward her properly when I get back.”
“Speaking of Disciple-Niece Youqin and Disciple-Nephew Changshou… Tsk.”
“Tsk, tsk, tsk…”
While everyone was in high spirits, they also recalled Youqin Xuanya’s declaration in front of everyone when she faced the eighth Heavenly Tribulation.
They did not know if the immortals of the other two major sects understood or not.
