"I’m getting angry. From now on, you’ll be called Little Mute. If you’re so capable, never speak again!"
After a long while, GuaGua, with puffed cheeks, chose to give up.
No matter what, it still had patience. So rude, huh! Banished to the cold palace, I won’t play with it!
"Whether it’s a blessing or a curse, it’s still too early to say..."
Ye Hanjun didn’t feel any particular surprise. Instead, he gazed at the sword-like mark on his abdon with hesitation and imnse dread.
A Heavenly Gifted Mark... Was this a blessing from the Heavenly Dao? Why?
I had intended to destroy the Ye Clan and had forbidden the promotion of those with Dual Authority.
Yet, when I woke up, a Thunder Elental Spirit was developing inside , and an invisible bond had been cast upon .
What’s more terrifying was that the age-old Law of sa Rank had been broken.
, as the Supre Saint Embryo Sword Thunder Child, had sohow established a connection with him, a human who had still not ascended to the Seventh Rank.
Was this the so-called work of the Heavenly Dao, or was it a special gift from the people behind GuaGua?
Ye Hanjun’s thoughts rose and fell until finally, he grunted and had no choice but to interrupt his deep contemplation.
"Big Tadpole, what’s wrong with you?"
GuaGua poked its head around, asking with concern.
"It’s nothing."
Ye Hanjun touched GuaGua’s chin and muttered to himself:
"Though I’ve struggled to survive, my current state... is extrely dire."
"I’ll heal you!"
GuaGua puffed out its chest, full of confidence.
When ’Instant Healing’ and ’Super Purification’ were used one after the other and then GuaGua exclaid in disbelief:
"It’s not working..."
"Big Tadpole, what’s weak isn’t your fleshly body, but your soul..."
"It seems that it’s because the soul is too frail that the bodily functions have significantly deteriorated..."
Ye Hanjun fell silent, sitting cross-legged on the ground and looking inwardly.
After a while, he opened his dim eyes and nodded slightly:
"I’ve never suffered such an injury before. Fatigue does indeed emanate from the depths of the soul, and there are cracks all over it, with signs of having been pieced together."
"It seems that I was just a little short of being executed by the Heavenly Dao."
"It was an indescribable divine being from behind you who saved , forcibly stitching together, luckily reclaiming a life."
"Hehe, I have a backer too!"
When Little GuaGua ntioned this matter, it beat its chest, its spirits high:
"In the future, I’ll walk the world with much more confidence!"
"If I get the chance, I must thank Him, saving both a lon and a person’s lives, a favor larger than the heavens, I will rember it firmly!"
Ye Hanjun nodded slightly and pondered in silence.
He noticed that there wasn’t much overall change in GuaGua, except for a new platinum teardrop-shaped mark on its brow, which was very faint and required a close look to see clearly.
On GuaGua’s attribute panel, there were no special status annotations, just a rather noticeable "Rank Severely Suppressed."
"When you leave the tomb, you’ll be able to ascend to the Unlimited Stage."
"Because I haven’t made a breakthrough, you’ve been stuck at the Heaven and Earth Stage, it must be sowhat frustrating..."
Contemplating, Ye Hanjun lit up all his marks.
The first to materialize were Huazhu and Aegifura, a witch and a demon, one imdiately half-kneeling on the ground with a face full of infinite joy and surprise.
The other toyed with her frost white hair strands, her irritation obvious in her every expression.
"Inkling! Inkling! Such an extre inkling!"
"Just to pass a tribulation, at least decades of ti were wasted!"
"Youth whittled away for nothing because of you, utterly aningless, damn it! Infuriating! I really want to kick you to death!"
"Boom——"
The Cross Thunder Sword floating behind Ye Hanjun suddenly moved.
It seed to swing a very fine and slender sword light in an instant that was imperceptible to the naked eye.
The sword light was not only slender, but its glow was also very faint, dimr than a firefly, and it was altogether unremarkable.
But in the next mont, Aegifura’s carefully styled bangs—were neatly severed.
Before the white fragnts of hair could touch the ground, sparks flickered, and a wisp of blue light rose slowly, leaving nothing behind in the space.
"Huh?"
Aegifura was startled, feeling a chill on her neck, death just a finger’s breadth away.
She subconsciously touched her forehead and found that the perfectly curved bangs which should have been cascading down no longer existed. Her complexion went from white to red, then she scread in anger:
"Ahhhhhh!!!"
"Do you know how hard it is to grow hair!"
"You damage my hair quality! Ruin my beauty! I will make sure we die together!!!"
"Swoosh!"
In the instant that Aegifura charged at him, Ye Hanjun was quick to react, forcibly retracting the weapon.
Thus, the increasingly erratic Cross Thunder Sword, as if it had lost its focus, slowly returned to a calm state.
"Big Tadpole..."
GuaGua stretched his neck and said with an astonished face:
"This guy doesn’t talk, but it’s so loyal, huh, ready to kill Little ili at the slightest disagreent!"
Ye Hanjun nodded, looking almost frightened, as his quick reflexes were the only thing that might have stopped Aegifura from actually dying.
Had she died, the Blood Covenant would break, the backlash would ensue, and given his currently fragnted soul state, whether he could survive was a matter of uncertainty.
"Calm down, calm down a bit."
"There are no enemies here, you are not allowed to attack any creature without my permission."
Ye Hanjun repeatedly admonished the Thunder Sword, whether or not it could understand him.
His words probably had no effect since the Cross Thunder Sword made no response, rely maintaining a silent, gently glowing presence, in a perpetual, ancient posture, floating behind him.
"My lord, you are unhard, that is truly wonderful!"
Huazhu had many questions, but unlike GuaGua, she didn’t ask thoughtlessly, nor was she like Aegifura, harboring a heap of dissatisfaction and seizing every opportunity to vent.
"Hm... Who has disturbed my great slumber?"
Goose Immortal, hugging its head like an ostrich, suddenly stood up, flapping its wings.
"Oh, Human Master."
"You young lucker, did you cross the Heavenly Dao tribulation?"
"No wait, why am I, the Immortal, still stuck in the Heaven and Earth Perfection stage, when will I reach the Unlimited Foetus and ascend?"
