Chapter 484 - Yu Die, Get Ready
Chapter 484 - Yu Die, Get Ready
The ink-colored Nascent Soul tribulation cloud in the sky soon dispersed after its job was done.
Ye Anping looked up, then walked to the center of the cave and took a brief look at the treasures and formations that Feng Yu Die had prepared for her Nascent Soul tribulation.
In fact, he had also thought about Feng Yu Die's Nascent Soul. In addition to preparing a set of Nascent Soul items for his sister, he had also prepared an entire set for Feng Yu Die, thinking of giving it to her in a while.
But it seemed there was no need for it now.
And, probably because of Xiao Tian and Mr. Qi's guidance, Feng Yu Die did not have a single-minded approach to overcome the tribulation.
Although these natural treasures were not better than those he got from the Imperial Sect's secret vault, they were also quite suitable for Feng Yu Die's natural spiritual root constitution.
Rustle...
The sound of the fabric rustling came from behind.
Ye Anping glanced back unconsciously and saw Feng Yu Die taking out her spare clothes from the storage bag. She ignored him and started to put on her clothes without even setting up a screen to cover herself.
Although he had seen her naked before, he didn't know why, but now he felt something strange in his heart...
So much so that he sighed in his heart.
She turned out to be a girl...
Her belly button is so beautiful...
… …
Ye Anping didn't stare at her for too long. Seeing Xiao Tian floating beside him, wanting to talk to him but not daring to, he sighed silently. "Sigh..."
He sat down, took out flint and wood from the storage bag, and set up a bonfire on the spot. After taking out the marinated chicken, he skewered it and roasted it. Then, he called, "Xiao Tian."
Hearing Ye Anping call out to her, Xiao Tian's initially disappointed expression instantly disappeared. Without saying a word, she flew up and hesitantly asked, "...Anping, are you calling me?"
"Is there anyone else here called Xiao Tian?"
Ye Anping looked up at the sword mark above Xiao Tian's left eye. He hesitated for a moment before reaching out his left hand to touch it.
Xiao Tian didn't try to dodge and closed her eyes, allowing his fingers to touch her scar.
Ye Anping gently rubbed Xiao Tian's eyelids with his fingers. He concluded that as Feng Yu Die's cultivation level increased, the little fellow gradually took on a physical form and even had a body temperature similar to a human.
So strange...
Ye Anping rubbed for a while before asking, "Is my sister's sword so heavy? It's not healed yet."
"I kept it on purpose, I think it's pretty cool..." Xiao Tian wiped her left eyebrow with a giggle, then circled Ye Anping twice, smiling. "Anping, Yu Die has been very diligent recently. She practices sword and condenses energy every day, and doesn't skip classes. She goes to Mr. Qi's class every day..."
"..."
"And, Yu Die has been thinking about you every day during this period. You have to accompany Sister Pei, so she has to endure the desire to eat roasted chicken. Every night before going to bed, she would stare at your portrait for a long time."
"Be quiet, let me think."
"Ah... Oh. Then, can I lie on your head, Anping?"
"Yes."
Ye Anping answered perfunctorily, and then he calmed down.
It seemed it would take more time for his sister's Nascent Soul lightning tribulation to come. He had thought that he would go to Gu Mingxin alone in a few days to make preparations. But now, Feng Yu Die happened to have survived the most difficult first thunder tribulation...
The first Nascent Soul thunder tribulation was the most difficult, followed by the second, third, and fourth. After that, there was no need to find some blessed land. As long as you prepared the formation, spiritual treasures, and pills, you could overcome the tribulation anywhere.
In addition, after going to the Eastern Region, he would almost inevitably come into contact with demonic cultivators and might even have to fight to the death.
If he went there alone, he would have to stay extra vigilant during the journey, and he might not even have the opportunity to rest.
In other words, his best option at the moment was indeed to take Feng Yu Die with him, and the two of them go to the Eastern Region to prepare in advance.
In this way, they could watch each other's backs.
However, although this was the truth, Ye Anping inexplicably felt a trace left by the Heavenly Dao after its secret mischief.
It was as if the Heavenly Dao wanted to match him and Feng Yu Die and deliberately gave them a chance to be alone.
—It just so happened that his sister's Nascent Soul tribulation was postponed.
—It just so happened that Feng Yu Die passed her first Nascent Soul lightning tribulation at this time...
—It just so happened...
… …
Thinking of this, Ye Anping felt inexplicably unhappy. He glanced at Xiao Tian who was lying on his head, and he suddenly had an idea.
—Why not just let his sister chop Xiao Tian directly...
"Forget it..."
Ye Anping silently exhaled, took Gu Mingxin's hand off his waist, and scratched the back of her hand, asking her to open her fingers. Then, he wrote on her palm with his index finger.
—See you in Brilliance City in a month.
Gu Mingxin's hand froze for a moment, then clenched into a fist and bent her wrist like a cat's paw, indicating that she understood.
After Gu Mingxin responded, a pair of cloud sleeves went around Ye Anping's shoulders from behind. Before he could react, Feng Yu Die pounced on his back and hugged his neck tightly, putting her face close to his cheek.
"Young Master Ye, hehe..."
As she called him affectionately, Feng Yu Die rubbed her face against his, causing Ye Anping to look disgusted. He raised his hand to push her face away. "Don't rub on me."
"But I like you."
"I heard you."
"Hee hee—"
Feng Yu Die's golden eyes flashed a little, and she pursed her rosy lips. "Does it look good? I just applied lip gloss for you. Do you want a kiss?"
"...No."
"...Then, I’ll change to another one. Master Ye, what color do you like?"
A vein popped out on Ye Anping's forehead. He took the roasted chicken and directly slapped it on her face.
"Be quiet."
"Okay..." Feng Yu Die smiled with her lips pursed and sat down next to Ye Anping obediently, holding the roast chicken in both hands. Then, she deliberately moved toward him. "Master Ye, do you want to eat some too? I'll leave the chicken leg for you."
"No."
Ye Anping looked at her coldly.
However, Feng Yu Die's face soon turned red again, and she said delicately, "Master Ye, you look so handsome when you are cold..."
Ye Anping held his forehead and sighed. "Sigh..."
"You look so handsome when you sigh... Hehe—"
"Shut up."
"I like you when you are fierce."
Ye Anping couldn't take it anymore, so he directly pulled off the chicken leg and stuffed it into her mouth...
...
When he came out of the Gathering Spirit Cave, Ye Anping was annoyed by Feng Yu Die to the point of exasperation.
Feng Yu Die, probably noticing that Ye Anping was annoyed with her, didn't say anything. She just walked beside him with a sweet smile on her face, trying to grab his hand from time to time. Ye Anping raised his hand to dodge every time.
"Try to grab my hand again?"
"Okay... I won't grab it, hehe—"
"Sigh..."
Ye Anping sighed. After all, he had already decided to bring Feng Yu Die to the Eastern Region, so he had to tell her in advance what to prepare.
While the disciples of Heavenly Cloud Peak were still with the Elders, he and Feng Yu Die flew to the three-house compound on the mountainside.
Because Pei Lianxue had been preparing for the tribulation for the past two months, Feng Yu Die lived in this house alone, and he never had time to come and see it.
When he first entered the door, Ye Anping was stunned by the scene in the yard and froze outside the gate.
The yard was cluttered with piles of broken wooden stakes, and on the trunk of the withered apricot tree, there was a portrait of an extremely handsome boy. Ye Anping rolled his eyes and looked at Feng Yu Die, who was a little embarrassed beside him, seeking an explanation with his eyes.
She shifted her eyes and twirled her hair. "Hehehe, these days when I was condensing my energy and practicing sword in the yard, I kept staring at your portrait, Master Ye. It makes me feel more at ease."
"..."
Ye Anping let out a long breath, walked into the yard, and came to the stone table with many wooden slips and books on it, then glanced at the covers of those books.
Most of them were formation diagrams and some ancient books that recorded the treasures needed for the Nascent Soul formation. It seemed that Feng Yu Die had borrowed them from the Black Star Sect's library.
As Ye Anping started to tidy up the books on the table to make some space, he suddenly found a map covered with scribbled marks underneath these books.
Glancing at the marks on the map, it was as if they were written by him. Most of the opportunities and spiritual treasures locations were marked with red "×".
Ye Anping was surprised and turned to look questioningly at Feng Yu Die.
—What is this?
Xiao Tian, who was sitting on Feng Yu Die's shoulder with her arms crossed, floated up and answered. "Anping, Yu Die and I made this together. We sorted out all the things about the Eastern Region recorded in the Heavenly Dao Scroll, and then marked some useful things on the map. You said you wanted to go to the Eastern Region, so I was wondering if we could help you or something… hehe..."
"..."
Xiao Tian floated over shyly and asked, "Anping, is this map useful?"
Ye Anping replied, "No."
"Ah...oh..."
Xiao Tian lowered her head in disappointment, but perked up again a moment later. "Then, Anping, tell me what to change. I will do it..."
However, before she finished speaking, Ye Anping gently pinched her face and smiled slightly while looking at Feng Yu Die. "Ten days later, you'll come to Brilliance City with me."
"Huh?" Feng Yu Die tilted her head slightly. "To Brilliance City?"
"Yes, to find Gu Mingxin."
Hearing this name, Gu Mingxin, the sweet smile on Feng Yu Die's face instantly collapsed. She couldn't help but think of the time in the Bright Star Sect's sea of ??flowers when Gu Mingxin snatched her Master Ye from her…
However, she quickly cast aside the distracting thoughts in her mind and nodded seriously. "Okay!"
"After you pass two more thunder tribulations, we will set off. You should rest properly for the next few days."
"Got it..."
