Chapter 1051: Chapter 1051: Wounds from the Heavenly Tribulation
Even though they couldn’t et for the ti being, Ye You was always paying attention to Qin Sisi. Yun Cheng would inform Yun Wang about Qin Sisi’s situation at the Heavenly Magic God’s Castle, and then Yun Wang would relay the information to Ye You through a ssaging paper crane.
Learning that Qin Sisi had achieved top rank in her graduation assessnt, Ye You felt even more excited than when he had earned top rank himself. He desperately wanted to rush back right away and celebrate with Qin Sisi.
However, he was at a critical mont of leveling up at the ti and could not return. All he could do was suppress the longing in his heart and strive to break through his level limitations to further enhance his strength.
In fact, Qin Sisi didn’t bla Ye You at all, but nearly half a year’s separation made her feel a slight sense of grievance.
Ye You held Qin Sisi’s face in his hands and whispered, "Let
have a good look at you."
With tears welling up in her eyes, Qin Sisi gazed at Ye You. Their eyes t and remained entangled, reluctant to part.
Unable to resist, Ye You leaned down wanting to kiss her, but Qin Sisi quickly placed her hand in front of him with a shy expression, saying softly, "Not here."
They were currently outside, and this was the area of Tianshui Mountain, so it was unpredictable if soone would see them. Qin Sisi didn’t want such privacy to be exposed.
Seeing that Qin Sisi was unwilling, Ye You didn’t persist and let her go, only holding her hand tightly.
"Let’s go to Tianyue Mountain!" Qin Sisi suggested. It was quickly getting dark and Ye You was about to transform, which she knew he didn’t want others to see.
Ye You gave her a thoughtful look and said, "Tianyue Mountain is the girls’ dormitory, n are not allowed to stay overnight. Let’s go to Tiandan Mountain instead; Teacher Mo Liu has been keeping my room for ."
When Ye You promised he would give Teacher Mo Liu a Level Six Jade lting Pill just like the original one, Mo Liu began to regard Ye You as his Closed-door Disciple. Coupled with his Prince status, keeping a room for him in Tiandan Mountain was not an issue.
Qin Sisi was not unfamiliar with this room. When she first arrived at the Heavenly Magic God’s Castle, she stayed here with Ye You for a month before he left, and she began her formal study of magic at the castle.
In the blink of an eye, three years had passed. The room was still the sa, but both of them had gone through considerable changes.
For Qin Sisi, the changes had been for the better. Although the past three years had been tough, she had no regrets and had beco a better version of herself compared to three years ago.
Before Ye You prepared to return, he asked Yun Wang to notify Teacher Mo Liu in advance to have soone clean up the room. So now, the room was very clean and the bedding was all new.
Ye You led Qin Sisi into the room and then turned around to close the door. Suddenly, Qin Sisi embraced him from behind, wrapping her arms tightly around his waist.
Ye You’s body stiffened for a mont and his face turned pale, barely managing not to make a sound.
Qin Sisi couldn’t see Ye You’s complexion but felt the rigidity of his body. She loosened her grasp and moved in front of him, asking softly with concern, "What’s wrong?"
"It’s nothing," Ye You said in a low voice, averting his eyes.
Qin Sisi grew more worried. After a mont of silence, she reached up to undo the buttons of Ye You’s shirt.
Ye You quickly grabbed her hand, saying urgently, "It’s really nothing."
"If it’s nothing, why can’t you let
see?" Ye You’s lies were transparent. Qin Sisi stared unwaveringly into his eyes, waiting for an explanation.
Ye You looked conflicted, avoiding Qin Sisi’s gaze, and in a very low voice said, "Sisi, please don’t look, okay?"
Qin Sisi’s heart ached for no reason. She withdrew her hand and gently placed it on Ye You’s waist, looking into his eyes with both gentleness and calm, she said, "Xiao Hei, didn’t you say that I am your fiancée? Then we should help each other, rather than you bearing everything alone."
Her words sowhat soothed Ye You’s expression, he sighed and said: "I’m just afraid of scaring you."
"No way." Qin Sisi imdiately replied resolutely.
"Promise , no crying, no sadness."
Qin Sisi looked at him without saying a word. If he really had injuries on his body, how could she not be sad?
In Qin Sisi’s silent yet stubborn gaze, Ye You finally compromised and began to undo the first button.
"I’ll do it." Qin Sisi lifted her hand, gently pulled Ye You’s hand away, and then helped him undo the second button, followed by the third...
From the second button on, Qin Sisi had already seen the dark purple scars, one after another, ugly and fierce, densely spreading over Ye You’s skin, with almost no patch of intact skin wherever her eyes landed.
"How... how did this happen?" Qin Sisi’s eyes brimd with tears, her hands slightly trembling.
While sighing, Ye You wiped her tears with a tone that was surprisingly light: "Silly girl, didn’t you notice I’ve leveled up?"
Qin Sisi was startled and quickly extended her Divine Sense to examine the aura on Ye You’s body, indeed it had turned a brownish hue, although it was still rather faint.
"You are now, a Magic God?" She stared at Ye You and asked word by word, surprise ca so suddenly that she found it a bit hard to believe.
Ye You smiled and instead of answering directly, he gestured with his chin and said, "Look outside the window."
Qin Sisi turned her head to look. Outside, the sky had already darkened, at this ti usually, Ye You would have turned into a black cat, but he hadn’t, he still stood before her in his human form, unhard.
"You... you really..." Qin Sisi was so excited she couldn’t speak, tightly hugging Ye You’s neck and crying tears of joy.
Ye You gently patted Qin Sisi’s back, lowering his head to sll the faint fragrance of her hair, feeling an imnse sense of satisfaction in his heart.
He was very excited when he had just leveled up, but Qin Sisi seed even more thrilled than he had been at the ti.
In this vast world, it’s truly hard to find such a person, when you’re happy, she’s happier than you; when you’re sad, she’s sadder than you.
After a while, Qin Sisi’s emotions cald down a bit, she lifted her head and asked: "Tell
clearly, what does your leveling up have to do with your injuries?"
Ye You fell silent for a mont, then answered: "Starting from a Sixth-level Magic God, leveling up requires passing through Heavenly Tribulation, only by surviving the tribulation can one successfully level up."
The path to the heavens is always fraught with many restrictions, only true powerhouses can continually climb upwards, and the glory of the peak must be paid for with a sufficient price.
"Heavenly Tribulation?" Qin Sisi pondered, "Are the scars on your body all left by Heavenly Tribulation?"
Ye You nodded his head.
Qin Sisi gently touched the purple and green scars on Ye You’s body with her fingertip, softly asking, "Does it hurt a lot?"
"It’s nothing, it’s all in the past." Ye You reassured her in a low voice; the tender gaze in which Qin Sisi looked at him stirred his emotions uncontrollably, and he embraced her tightly in his arms once again.
