Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
w.a.n.g Xuanzhan was given a fright. Why was there a flower growing on his head?
However, he knew that he was currently in a very dire situation, and he didn’t have time to think about anything as he rushed toward his enemy.
All of a sudden, a dazzling golden light suddenly erupted from the red flower on his head.
The golden light was very pure, so pure that w.a.n.g Xuanzhan was completely unable to detect any energy fluctuations from it.
It’s over…
w.a.n.g Xuanzhan felt like this had to be one of the most tragic ways to die. He must have been struck by some sort of unfathomable spell technique from his enemy. Who would have thought that his life would come to an end under such baffling circ.u.mstances…
Just as he was thinking this, the golden light above his head suddenly shot forth at an extremely fast speed before puncturing the Heavenly Human Tribe Great General’s head.
It was simply too fast for the Great General to react to.
The Great General’s palms hadn’t even fallen when his body suddenly faltered, and his eyes glazed over before an expression of enlightenment appeared on his face.
Thump!
The Heavenly Human Tribe Great General knelt down with tears flowing down his face. “I’m so sorry! My heart, body, and soul are all filled with filth! Please kill me!”
w.a.n.g Xuanzhan was just about to attack his enemy with his spear, but he was dumbstruck by the scene being presented to him.
What was going on?
A high and mighty Heavenly Human Tribe Great General was kneeling down to him and asking for death?
He didn’t recall giving this Great General a bribe, so why was he doing this?!
At this moment, a sweet voice sounded from above his head, “What are you s.p.a.cing out for? Hurry up and cleanse this repenting enemy! Praise the sun!”
The Heavenly Human Tribe Great General raised his hands high into the sky. “Praise the sun!”
Splat!
w.a.n.g Xuanzhan’s spear fell and split the Great General in half as he also chimed in expressionlessly, “Praise the sun!”
Never would he have thought that the most powerful enemy he had ever slain would be slain in such a manner…
“Thank you for your a.s.sistance, Elder Xiao Hong,” w.a.n.g Xuanzhan expressed his grat.i.tude in a respectful voice.
He didn’t know what this red flower on his head was before, but after hearing the catchphrase “praise the sun”, he immediately realized who this was.
Everyone in the Kingdom of the Nine States knew that Elder Xiao Hong was a sunbathing flower!
“Don’t mention it. Keep up the good work, Mr. w.a.n.g Xuanzhan, I have to go save other people now,” Xiao Hong responded in her sweet voice before disappearing.
w.a.n.g Xuanzhan didn’t know how Xiao Hong had appeared, and he didn’t know how Xiao Hong had left. He didn’t even know how she had made the Heavenly Human Tribe Great General kneel down to her!
This was a Heaven Pioneer Stage Heavenly Human! They were the most powerful enemies below the Heavenly G.o.ds!
Their faith in the Heavenly Dao and their abilities to use the powers of the heavens were unmatched! Proud beings like them had extremely stalwart dao hearts, so how was he made to kneel down and beg for his death? Not even the five Heavenly Court emperors would be capable of replicating this feat!
The underlying notions were simply terrifying to think about.
“What kinds of freaks are these Four Nine Immortal Sect powerful beings…” w.a.n.g Xuanzhan sighed with emotion.
Thinking about it now, that little red flower was An Lin’s beast pet.
Even his beast pets were this bada.s.s…
w.a.n.g Xuanzhan turned to look at the ferocious white dog in the distance.
His combat prowess was about equivalent to Da Bai’s…
What a painful realization!
Never would w.a.n.g Xuanzhan have thought that there would come a day when his combat prowess would only be comparable to that of a dog An Lin used as his steed. This was simply unimaginable!
Da Bai must have received a lot of miraculous opportunities, right?
w.a.n.g Xuanzhan shook his head to rid himself of these unnecessary thoughts before charging into battle again.
The battle was still raging.
Perhaps it was because a Heavenly G.o.d had fallen on the central front, but no Heavenly G.o.ds appeared during this battle. As such, the Kingdom of the Nine States United Army had gained a significant upper hand having only suffered three or four million casualties compared to the Heavenly Human Tribe, which had suffered close to ten million casualties.
The other reason for their crus.h.i.+ng advantage was the Four Nine Immortal Sect.
The inclusion of the Four Nine Immortal Sect in this battle had turned the tables greatly in their favor, and the Heavenly Human Tribe United Army was going to be completely annihilated sooner or later!
The eastern front was embroiled in a ma.s.sive battle.
However, the central front remained calm and placid.
An Lin and Xu Xiaolan were still enjoying their days together in preparation for the upcoming battle.
Yue Tong City was a ma.s.sive city, and there were simply too many things for them to experience. There was a smorgasbord of delicacies for them to sample, a variety of scenic locations for them to visit, and countless fun things to do.
An Lin held onto Xiaolan’s hand as the two of them happily toured the city.
The next morning.
The sun was just beginning to peek over the horizon.
The crisp cries of Vermilion Birds rang out across Yue Tong City.
A new day was here.
An Lin was meditating on his bed.
However, the familiar sound of his door being pushed open did not arrive.
He was a little confused. Xiaolan was the one who woke him up for the past few days.
After waiting for a while longer, An Lin decided to head to Xu Xiaolan’s room.
He had only just made it to her door when a voice sounded from within.
“Don’t come in!”
The voice was quite familiar, but it was a lot more coa.r.s.e than he remembered.
An Lin’s heart jolted as a feeling of unease welled up in his heart.
He immediately tried to push the door open, only to find that a powerful restriction had been placed upon it.
“Please don’t come in… I’m begging you…”
A coa.r.s.e, beseeching voice sounded from the other side of the door.
White light flashed across An Lin’s eyes. Divine Inspection Technique!
Xiaolan was clearly in distress, and he couldn’t leave her alone at a time like this!
An Lin flicked a finger at a weak point on the restriction, upon which the restriction shattered.
He immediately pushed open the door and was greeted by a cry of alarm.
A figure in a jade dress had her back facing him, and her hands were over her face as she sobbed. “Didn’t I tell you not to come in? Why… why won’t you listen to me… I really didn’t want you to see me like this…”
An Lin was rooted to the spot.
The jade dress looked the same as it did yesterday, but the figure under the jade dress was so frail and thin. Her hair was silvery-white, there were wrinkles on her neck, and the skin on her hands was loose and had lost all of their l.u.s.ter.
An Lin made his way over to the bed and sat down across from her. His heart throbbed with pain at the sight of the woman sobbing into her hands.
He gently grabbed her wrists before prying her hands away from her face.
Xu Xiaolan’s features were finally revealed to him.
The contours of her face remained the same, but it was riddled with wrinkles and freckles.
The delicate, snowy-white skin, the seductive, red lips, the intricate nose, and the bright, rippling eyes were nowhere to be seen. In their place were a set of loose, wrinkled skin, dry, cracked lips, a shriveled nose, and a set of dejected, dull eyes…
Xu Xiaolan had tears in her eyes, and she finally mustered up the courage to look at An Lin as her voice trembled. “Do you see my face now? Are you happy now? Get out! Just a few more days… I only needed a few more days, and I wouldn’t look like this anymore. Why couldn’t you wait? Why did you…”
All of a sudden, a pair of lips made contact with her forehead.
Xu Xiaolan’s mouth gaped open as she stared blankly at the man in front of her…
After a full ten seconds…
An Lin drew back before a warm smile appeared on his face. “Here’s a good morning kiss for you. Good morning, eighty-year-old Xiaolan.”
