Chapter 2037: Picking Her up in Person
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Xu Xiaolan stood silently in mid-air as her jade dress billowed out around her. She looked down at everything that was happening down below and was momentarily overcome with emotions.
She thought back to how perilous an ordeal it had been when she had progressed to the Dao Integration Stage. No, perilous wasn’t a strong enough adjective to describe how dangerous that process was. It was no exaggeration to say that it was a miracle that she had survived that ordeal! She was attempting dual dao integration, which had never been done in history, and somehow, she managed to grab hold of a quickly receding shred of light amid a boundless expanse of darkness.
However, what she had just witnessed was someone progressing to the Dao Integration Stage after skipping her tribulation.
Most importantly, the aura emanating from her was very bada.s.s for a rookie Dao Integration Stage super mighty figure…
“Sigh, I already find it outrageous that Little Ling can transcend her tribulations like she’s taking a stroll in the park, but this Little Hong Ling is even more absurd! I can’t believe she can just bypa.s.s tribulations altogether…”
Xu Xiaolan ma.s.saged her brows and wanted to say something, but words failed to describe her current feelings.
The world was like that sometimes; there was never true fairness. It was often said that the Heavenly Dao favored none, but that did not appear to be the case…
The little girl standing on the drill ground bowed toward the sky with an earnest expression. Such a formal and serious expression on her little face created quite an adorable contrast.
She then turned and also bowed deeply to both An Lin and Little Xie.
A vibrant smile appeared on Little Hong Ling’s face. “Sect Leader An Lin, Sword Spirit Little Xie, thank you for enlightening me and helping me to progress to the Dao Integration Stage!”
The surrounding powerful beings all cast their eyes toward the white-robed man.
In their eyes, this man was even more mysterious than before.
One powerful being after another began to congratulate Little Hong Ling.
Meanwhile, An Lin turned to the black-dressed loli beside him with a curious look. “I now believe that Hong Ling is blessed by the Heavenly Dao, but why is that the case?”
Little Xie jumped onto the lounge chair beside her before stretching lazily and replying, “There are always some living beings who have special affinities with the Heavenly Dao. Everything about them draws the Heavenly Dao’s favor, thereby allowing them to enter some restricted areas without any impediment and encounter miraculous opportunities unimaginable to the average person… From a const.i.tution perspective, you’re actually a being blessed by the Heavenly Dao as well, Master.”
“Me?!” An Lin pointed at himself with an incredulous look.
“That’s right. Haven’t you realized that you have been very fortunate as well?” Little Xie appraised An Lin with intrigued eyes.
“I’ve been very fortunate?” An Lin’s lips twitched. “Look at Little Hong Ling; she doesn’t even have to transcend any tribulations! Then look at me; all of my tribulation transcendences have been absolutely insane! If someone else were in my shoes, they would have died countless times already!”
“Your Tian Ming Dao Physique is actually a const.i.tution that draws endearment from the Heavenly Dao, but you have something else in your body that has clouded the Heavenly Dao’s a.s.sessment of you. That is why abnormalities have appeared during your tribulation transcendences.” Little Xie extended a tender little finger and poked An Lin in the chest with a meaningful look on her face. “I’m sure you know what that special thing in your body is, right?”
“Er…” An Lin had no response to this.
Little Xie was constantly by his side, so she naturally had a very in-depth understanding of her master.
“Not just you, but even your disciple, Ye Ling, and your beast pet, Xiao Hong, are all beings blessed by the Heavenly Dao. It’s just that the Heavenly Dao has blessed them in different ways,” Little Xie continued.
An Lin was abruptly enlightened upon hearing this. No wonder Ye Ling and Xiao Hong made breakthroughs as if they were playing games! So they were beings blessed by the Heavenly Dao as well?
“Then, is there any harm in having this type of const.i.tution?” An Lin was a little anxious.
Little Xie shook her head. “No, this type of const.i.tution is purely beneficial. It’s the equivalent of gaining a strong backer from birth; how could that be detrimental in any way?”
“However, what’s strange to me is that there have been very few beings blessed by the Heavenly Dao throughout history. In fact, it’s quite rare for two of them to appear in the same generation. As such, it’s quite extraordinary that so many have popped up in the Four Nine Immortal Sect.”
An Lin fell silent upon hearing this.
He recalled back to how he had met Xiao Hong and Ye Ling. Were those just coincidental events or were they pre-ordained by fate?
Furthermore, when the cow-nosed Daoist Priest sent Ye Ling to the Four Nine Immortal Sect, was that because he had identified Ye Ling’s special const.i.tution?
Many questions suddenly appeared in An Lin’s mind.
Right at this moment, a colorful spatial hole suddenly appeared in the air.
Phenomena began to appear over the heavens again.
Birds cried for joy, and a boundless forest immortal realm appeared in mid-air.
An exquisitely beautiful woman in a refres.h.i.+ng yet refined long dress appeared before everyone.
Everyone was dumbstruck from the moment they caught sight of her. Her extraordinary beauty was simply unforgettable, but at the same time, she evoked within one a sense of intimacy and comfort.
Her gaze quickly roamed over the drill ground before locking onto a pet.i.te figure.
The Battling Buddha immediately hurried forward and bowed respectfully. “Your Majesty Nuwa.”
All of the Divine Source Continent immortals were shocked to hear this. So this was the G.o.ddess of Creation, Nuwa?
Nuwa nodded at the Battling Buddha with a smile and extended a greeting toward An Lin and Xu Xiaolan before descending gracefully beside Little Hong Ling.
“h.e.l.lo, my name is Nuwa.” Nuwa’s clear eyes reflected the little girl before her, and she wore a pure and refres.h.i.+ng smile that was impossible to look away from.
“H… h.e.l.lo, Your Majesty Nuwa, my name is Hong Ling…” Little Hong Ling was in a completely panicked state in the face of such a legendary figure, and she cast a nervous glance at An Lin.
An Lin gave her a warm smile to settle her nerves.
“I’ve sensed your extraordinary nature; you are the one I’m looking for.” Nuwa looked at Little Hong Ling with a warm expression. “Have you heard of the Heaven Mending Sect?”
“I… I have…” Little Hong Ling was beginning to tremble a little.
Nuwa placed a slender hand gently on Little Hong Ling’s head as she said in a warm voice, “Then I would like to invite you to join the Heaven Mending Sect. In the Heaven Mending Sect, you will obtain unimaginable cultivation resources…”
Everyone’s eyes widened in shock.
My G.o.d! Nuwa had arrived in person just to recruit Hong Ling?!
Little Hong Ling instinctively wanted to shake her head.
“The heaven loves you, but it has been wounded and has a hole in its body. You can help it to recover…” Nuwa continued.
Little Hong Ling shuddered upon hearing this, and she initially wanted to shake her head, but she nodded in the end. “Alright, I’ll go with you and join the Heaven Mending Sect!”
She turned to An Lin with a hint of unease and a beseeching look in her eyes.
An Lin quickly calmed himself down before offering a smile to her, “Go on! I support you!”
“Yes, Sect Leader An Lin! I’ll do my best!”
Little Hong Ling clenched a little fist and nodded with an earnest expression after receiving An Lin’s approval.
Nuwa held Little Hong Ling’s hand as she turned and smiled at An Lin. “Don’t forget that you’re also a member of the Heaven Mending Sect. If you have some free time, feel free to come and visit our Heaven Mending Sect…”
Hmm… An Lin had almost forgotten that he was a member of the Heaven Mending Sect.
He hurriedly made some polite conversation with Nuwa before bidding the two of them farewell.
All of the immortals present were still completely shocked by the scenes unfolding before their eyes.
Nuwa’s arrival had rocked the entire sect, and the fact that she had taken Little Hong Ling with her made all of the immortals super envious. They were all on the same level just a moment ago, but she was now being identified as a protagonist who was going to save the world?!
An Lin stroked his chin and murmured to himself, “Beings blessed by the Heavenly Dao… Mending of the heavens…”
He suddenly thought of something, and his eyes lit up.
