CHAPTER 123: 097 WICKED MAN OF CHANG’AN (TWO IN ONE)_2

"Senior Sister?"

Xu Chang’an was startled by her sudden movement: "Are you okay."

The last time that Senior was also drenched.

What are the hobbies of these girls.

"...I’m fine." The woman in red looked like she had just been fished out of the water, a cascade of raindrops fell from her veil, pooling slightly beneath her feet.

The woman took a deep breath, damp strands of hair hung on her face, her gaze at Xu Chang’an became even more eerie.

In an instant, she analyzed Xu Chang’an’s Spiritual Power, thus becoming even more confused.

Clearly, it was just the most ordinary rainwater, yet it could wash away her Protective True Qi upon falling.

Clearly, it was just the most ordinary Spiritual Power, yet it could keep this rainwater outside.

If she hadn’t witnessed it herself, no matter who told her, she wouldn’t believe there were such strange things in the world.

"Are these raindrops related to you?" The woman in red looked at Xu Chang’an and suddenly asked.

"Senior Sister?" Xu Chang’an looked at her curiously and shook his head.

The question was as strange as the Senior Sister before him. No matter how meticulous Xu Chang’an’s thoughts were, he couldn’t comprehend what the other party was talking about.

"Hmm." The woman in red responded calmly.

She knew Xu Chang’an wouldn’t know, or else he wouldn’t be so ostentatious, only she was reckless to ask such a question.

Forget it.

The woman in red let out a rare sigh, realizing she wouldn’t be able to ask anything. She handed over the umbrella she was holding, seriously saying: "Take this umbrella, when you return... don’t use Spiritual Power to stop the rain."

"?" Xu Chang’an took the umbrella, his eyes full of confusion, but he still nodded.

Then the woman in red walked alone under a nearby tree, quietly watching the scenery above, pondering unknown thoughts.

Xu Chang’an: "..."

He felt completely baffled, finally understanding what this meant.

A Senior suddenly came by, gave him an umbrella, and then left?

Is this a hint to use an umbrella instead of Spiritual Power in rain for Mental Realm cultivation?

But he hadn’t practiced the cultivation technique of Muyu Peak either.

Forget it.

Perhaps an illusion, the rain suddenly lessened, the wind softened, and the small umbrella could completely shield him, keeping his clothes dry.

Thinking about the emblem on the opposite party’s robe that represents level, Xu Chang’an realized he had no right to refuse. He respectfully bowed towards the woman in red under the tree and gently left with the light-colored umbrella she provided.

"..."

Watching Xu Chang’an depart, the woman in red sighed softly.

When Xu Chang’an practiced, it caused heavenly phenomena, and she had given him a piece of Glazed Jade to conceal it.

Now, with everything being bizarre, if the fact that he alone could use a Spiritual Barrier came to light, it would surely spread across Chaoyun within a day.

Obviously, these things were caused by him, yet Xu Chang’an showed no intent to conceal them, as if there was no need to hide.

Even though he was so weak at this moment, like a bug that could be easily crushed, he still didn’t need to restrain himself.

What... exactly is he?

Xu Chang’an seemed oblivious, just a cautious, ordinary boy, completely unaware of his ability to trigger heavenly phenomena.

The woman in red didn’t think Xu Chang’an was lying, as there was no point.

His behavior was already so ostentatious, it didn’t resemble someone trying to hide.

The only possibility was... he genuinely didn’t know these phenomena were caused by him.

"..."

Standing under the tree, raindrops trickled slowly down the woman in red.

"Could he really be an Exiled Immortal?"

The woman in red once did not believe in the existence of Immortals, but now she believed a little, as it seemed the only explanation.

If he was an Immortal...

Then from his existence, there must be a different upward path from the current deadlocked state?

No wonder, someone among the girls suggested extracting the boy’s soul to take a look.

Glancing deeply at the direction of Xu Chang’an’s departure, the woman in red’s eyes filled with intense curiosity.

To trigger celestial phenomena, even causing thunder tribulations that she herself feared, if anyone made a move against him... what would await them?

That’s why, his subconscious actions are unconcealed, boldly uninhibited?

What will his cultivation path look like?

Has the Chaoyun Sect found a treasure?

Feeling her racing heart, the woman in red rubbed her temple.

Such a dream-like feeling, she hadn’t experienced in a long time.

She gently lifted the already soaked long hair beside her ear, sighing.

The brilliance of a luminous person cannot be forever concealed, let alone he never attempted to hide it... Sooner or later, others will discover his uniqueness.

Zhu Tongjun, indeed, brought back an extraordinary person.

Let’s see what unfolds next.

She would temporarily prevent the boy from being disturbed by external influences.

Just at that moment, the woman in red suddenly widened her eyes, soaring into the sky, hovering in mid-air, staring in shock at the distance.

By the Teleportation Array near the Celestial Bright Peak, Xu Chang’an walked slowly along the path.

"This is!" The woman in red’s knuckles turned white, her ocean-colored eyes contracted into a single point.

Previously, being too close, under the shield of heaven’s might, she hadn’t noticed, but now from afar, she realized there was a tribulation thunder lingering directly above Xu Chang’an, and it was... moving with him?

Pale blue lightning shuttled between the clouds’ crevices, as if accumulating something, a mysterious pattern remained under the rotating clouds.

She vaguely heard a grand sound of bells, representing all living beings, being the Supreme Principle of Heaven and Earth, Impermanence Dao.

At this moment, everything above Fixed Star Heaven disappeared, what clouds and rain veils were all replaced by layers of pulp webs.

Such intricate patterns, the woman in red was most familiar with.

Her past Qiankun Realm celestial tribulation resembled this appearance.

Tribulation?

Was he about to go through a tribulation?!

An Open Source Realm tribulation?

Perceiving something amiss, the woman in red instantly became extremely tense, she pointed in the void, a strand of Yin Yang Qi fell to the ground, instantly spreading into a Yin Yang Array, black and white colors dispersed transforming into The Meaning of Heaven and Earth, like a river of stars flowing, enshrouding the entire Celestial Bright Peak.

Her figure turned into a stream of light rushing towards Xu Chang’an.

He must not go through tribulation here!

The woman in red could never have anticipated such a scenario; she had just been contemplating his cultivation path, and he immediately brought such an event upon himself.

Indeed.

He’s not auspicious; the expression "Cannot remain in Chang’an" was written all over his face!

If such thunder tribulation falls, welcoming guests from all sides, there would be no need for the Demon Sect to intervene...

But suddenly, the woman in red’s figure came to a halt.

The speed of the thunder tribulation was far swifter than she imagined.

Heaven and earth suddenly fell silent, with a thunder tribulation descending, like a dragon weaving through, accompanied by pitch-black lightning, bringing an annihilating aura, an unknown grade of thunder tribulation, absolutely impossible to resist terror.

The tribulation thunder swept across the entire sky, reflecting in her eyes, illuminating her astonishment.

"..."

The imagined destructive force did not appear.

The woman in red’s veil fell, her lips slightly parted, taking in this unbelievable scene.

Time seemed to stand still.

A pure white thunderbolt, with purple electrical arcs, descended furiously from above, yet did not strike the boy; instead, it halted before him, like a Heaven-Reaching Pillar, falling from the nine heavens, hanging over the Chaoyun Sect, moments later, naturally disintegrating and vanishing without a trace.

No harm was caused, that instantaneous thunder tribulation condensed in front of Xu Chang’an for several breaths before dispersing.

It was as if... the tribulation thunder deliberately appeared to display itself before him, to satisfy his curiosity.

Now, the tribulation clouds vanished from the sky, revealing a clear sky, the rain gradually stopping, a picturesque scene, gentle breezes, everything so refreshing.

——

In front of the Teleportation Array at Celestial Bright Peak.

"?"

Xu Chang’an, holding the umbrella, blinked.

What just... happened?
