Chapter 192: Whisper So It Can’t Hear
Xiu’s face was full of disappointment, “I don’t know what went wrong with my Nascent Soul…”
Shi An’an frowned, worry in her heart, “The Nascent Soul wasn’t formed successfully?”
Xiu shook her head.
“Could something have gone wrong with the Nascent Soul?”
Xiu looked troubled, “See for yourself…”
After saying that, she released her own Nascent Soul.
The tiny lion cub was suddenly released and looked toward Shi An’an, letting out a coquettish howl.
“Aow meow~”
“Tudou!” Shi An’an’s eyes lit up with joy as she wanted to touch the little guy the size of her finger.
But the little guy shyly dodged away.
Shi An’an looked at the little guy hiding in Xiu’s chest with eyes full of affection, then looked up at Xiu, “No problem, it’s quite lively.”
Xiu: …
“Then why is it different from your Nascent Soul?” Xiu looked at her helplessly.
Shi An’an choked, cleared her throat, and averted her gaze, “Probably because it was shaped based on your Second Form!”
“Is that so?” Xiu looked at Shi An’an suspiciously.
Shi An’an stuck out her neck, “Yes!”
“Then let me see your Nascent Soul!”
“Sure!”
Shi An’an released her Nascent Soul.
A petite, cute, and exquisite mini version of Shi An’an’s Nascent Soul appeared before the two.
When Shi An’an’s Nascent Soul saw the cute and dazed little cub, surprise appeared on its face, and it flew right up to the little lion.
It directly hugged it and rubbed its face against the little lion’s body, full of fondness.
Seeing her own Nascent Soul liking Tudou just like her, Shi An’an guiltily glanced at Xiu.
Xiu still had a stern face, but her eyes flashed with indulgent amusement.
“What do I need to do to replace it?” Xiu asked.
Hearing that Xiu wanted to replace such a cute Nascent Soul.
Shi An’an and her Nascent Soul looked up at him in shock.
Xiu’s Nascent Soul also looked at him with a wronged expression. Clearly, its form was shaped based on what he had in mind, clearly it was because of him that it turned out like this, and now he actually wanted to replace it!!!
Shi An’an steadied herself and looked at Xiu seriously, “No, impossible, no way!”
“Once the Nascent Soul is formed, it will follow you until death, or until you reach the Soul Transformation stage, when you can refine it to be more exquisite!”
Xiu: …
“Such a cute Nascent Soul, why do you want to replace it? It’s so cute!” Shi An’an looked at the tiny cub with eyes full of affection.
Shi An’an’s Nascent Soul also hugged the little guy tightly.
“Fine…” There was no way to replace it, so it had to stay like this, but…
Xiu shook her head. It seemed he couldn’t let his Nascent Soul out in public anymore; it was too embarrassing.
After the two little guys played for a while, Shi An’an and Xiu took them back into their bodies.
When leaving, the two little guys were still reluctant to part.
Xiu looked at the big and small ones staring reluctantly at his Nascent Soul, a sly glint in his eyes, and said, “If you want to see it in the future, I’ll let it out, okay?”
“Okay!” Shi An’an happily agreed immediately, and the little Nascent Soul nodded happily too.
With Xiu’s guarantee, the two little guys obediently went back.
Xiu looked at the somewhat reluctant Shi An’an with eyes full of amusement and smiled, “How about I transform into Tudou’s form?”
“Can you?” Shi An’an looked at Xiu in surprise.
“No!” Xiu refused with a face full of laughter.
“…” Shi An’an pouted, not wanting to look at this person.
Xiu glanced at Wali, who was still in enlightenment, then looked at Shi An’an, “Want to go check out the Dark Land?”
Shi An’an nodded, but then thought of her disciple and quickly shook her head, “No, we’ll go after Wali finishes his enlightenment.”
Xiu’s face darkened slightly as he looked at Wali. He took out the disc and placed it on top of Wali’s head.
“Let it guard Wali, and we’ll go take a look around.”
Seeing the disc, Shi An’an thought about it. There was no danger here, and she’d be back soon, so it was fine.
“Okay.” Shi An’an agreed, then set up a barrier here in case Xiao Lu and the others accidentally intruded and disturbed Wali.
“Let’s go.”
Xiu satisfiedly took Shi An’an and left.
Disc: …So that’s all I’m good for?
Shi An’an came to the Dark Land with Xiu. She looked around, surprise flashing in her eyes.
“There’s Spiritual Energy now!”
Xiu nodded, “Yeah, now it’s the same as the Bright Land.”
Shi An’an sensed around and found no dangerous things left.
“There’s no danger here anymore.”
“Yes.”
“By the way, there’s a bead in that Giant Flood Dragon Head. I wonder if it’s its inner core.”
On the way back, Shi An’an took out both beads and had Xiu examine them.
“And this bead is the one Yina took out from the cave before…”
Xiu looked at the two beads glowing with eerie light, sensing the violent aura emanating from them, and frowned.
“Seal them up. If possible, I hope we can destroy them,” Xiu said gravely.
Shi An’an agreed, but…
“I tried many methods before and couldn’t destroy them. You give it a try?”
Xiu took the beads, gripped them in his hand—they were extremely hard. He channeled Spiritual Power to shatter them, but they remained intact.
Xiu tried many methods, but the two beads remained intact.
“Put them away for now. Next time during Tribulation, try using Heavenly Lightning,” Xiu thought of this method.
Shi An’an’s eyes lit up upon hearing it, “That could work!”
Suddenly, a thunderous boom came from the sky.
Heavenly Lightning: …What do you take me for?!!
Shi An’an put her finger to her lips, then pointed at the sky, using Telepathic Transmission, “Talk about it secretly later, don’t let it hear!”
A doting glint flashed in Xiu’s eyes, “Okay.”
The two exchanged knowing smiles.
When Shi An’an returned, Wali had already awakened from his enlightenment.
Seeing that his Master was back, excitement shone in Wali’s eyes.
“Master!”
“Mm, you’re awake? Congratulations, you just had Enlightenment.”
Shi An’an looked at Wali’s improved Cultivation Level and nodded in satisfaction.
Wali was also full of joy. He said to his Master with firm determination, “Master, I’ve figured it out. I’m not afraid of Tribulation anymore!”
Hearing that her disciple had figured it out, Shi An’an was happy too. Good, it proved she hadn’t misjudged him!
“Good!”
Shi An’an looked at Wali seriously, “Master hopes that on the path of Cultivating Immortality, you stay true to your heart and never forget your original intention!”
“Yes, Master!” Wali promised solemnly.
Xiu took back the disc and looked toward Shi An’an.
Shi An’an scanned the surroundings and also looked at Xiu.
“Go back?”
“Leave?”
The two said in unison, then smiled at each other.
“Let’s go!”
“Okay!”
Xiu put away the house, and Shi An’an told Wali they could leave now.
Upon hearing this, Wali felt both surprise and reluctance.
“Master, Yina…”
Wali asked hesitantly. Although he had some guesses in his heart, still…
Shi An’an stopped and looked at the somewhat sad Wali, sighing inwardly.
