Chapter 41: Chapter 41: The Mysterious Figure Within the Thunder Tribulation
At that moment, a voice rang out.
It was that Divinity Transformation Cultivator, who actually rushed towards Yan Yu.
And the Thunder Tribulation seemed even angrier at his arrival, with thunder rolling.
"Come back!" Li Zhen shouted, but it was too late to stop the cultivator from rushing forward.
The male cultivator charged out, fearing that Yan Yu would successfully break through and reach the Tribulation Stage.
If he just went over and came back, he could enhance the power of the Thunder Tribulation, and he had a Magical Treasure that could withstand some of its damage, not enough to kill him.
But Yan Yu was different; already seriously injured, she couldn’t possibly withstand the enhanced Thunder Tribulation.
She would definitely die!
Seeing the male cultivator rushing over, Yan Yu’s pupils contracted violently, wanting him to get out of the way.
But she had no strength left, not even to speak.
She could only watch as the Thunder Tribulation gradually increased in power.
"Vice Minister Yan, it’s okay, I’m here to share some of the burden." the male cultivator said hypocritically.
With an air of righteousness, he actually fooled the others present.
The Thunder Tribulation in the sky was enraged by the male cultivator’s arrival.
The originally purple thunder slowly transformed into red thunder.
Looking at the Thunder Tribulation, Yan Yu felt despair; she might not last through it!
Mom and Dad, I might not see you anymore.
And Xiao Yao, Celestial Venerable, until now, I don’t even know what you look like or your name.
Yan Yu closed her eyes in despair, unable to resist.
Li Zhen and others dared not go over; going over now would only make the Thunder Tribulation angrier, hastening Yan Yu’s death.
The male cultivator looked at the terrifying Thunder Tribulation, lips curling in ecstasy.
Come on, strike hard!
The Thunder Tribulation seemingly heard his heart and struck fiercely.
But just as the Thunder Tribulation was about to hit the two of them, a faint voice sounded.
[Withdraw]
In an instant, the Thunder Tribulation dispersed, and even the dark clouds brought by the Golden Chart scattered along with it, leaving the sky clear and blue.
Dazzling sunlight spread evenly over everyone.
Yan Yu opened her eyes in surprise, feeling the abundant power within her; she had broken through!
Became one out of ten thousand, a Tribulation Stage powerhouse!
Was that voice just now the Celestial Venerable Xiao Yao?!
"Was it the Celestial Venerable Xiao Yao? It sounded like him; he used to talk like that."
"It must be him, who else has such power to bend reality with words? It must be him; so damn cool."
"With just one word made the Thunder Tribulation retreat, such power, I am in awe, utterly awed."
"By the way, I remember Water Fairy is the Celestial Venerable Xiao Yao’s Dao companion, right? She mentioned it; I thought it was fake then, but it turned out to be true."
"Was this the big reveal from Xiao Yao? Truly a loving husband, it seems he’s been watching over Water Fairy all along."
Everyone present recognized it was the voice of Celestial Venerable Xiao Yao.
Just because his voice was different from the Heavenly Dao and the Voice of Hongmeng, with a bit of humanity in it, it was recognizable.
This time, Celestial Venerable Xiao Yao again displayed his power to speak and make it reality.
With just one word, he dispersed the furious Thunder Tribulation, such strength was terrifying.
"Where are you?!" Yan Yu suddenly looked around and shouted.
She knew it was Celestial Venerable Xiao Yao who saved her.
Turns out, Celestial Venerable Xiao Yao has been watching her silently, he knows her!
But she doesn’t know him, is that fair?
It’s unfair!
No matter how she shouted, she didn’t hear a response from Celestial Venerable Xiao Yao.
Instinctively, she activated her Divine Sense, trying to find the location of Celestial Venerable Xiao Yao.
She instinctively thought Celestial Venerable Xiao Yao was on-site, but after looking around, besides the people from the Maintenance Department, it seemed...
Hey, why is Chen Lan over there?
But he shouldn’t be Celestial Venerable Xiao Yao, he’s just a Nascent Soul.
After searching all over Qin City, Yan Yu was extremely disappointed; she realized that Celestial Venerable Xiao Yao might not be in Qin City.
Because his Divine Sense is so vast, he could see her from far away, not necessarily in Qin City.
Still, she couldn’t find him.
And in the distance, Chen Lan, the correct answer Yan Yu ruled out, saw Yan Yu’s disappointed face, a playful thought arose.
[Fate has not yet come, when it does, we will naturally meet]
Instantly, Yan Yu jerked her head up, she heard Celestial Venerable Xiao Yao’s voice again.
"Where are you, what do you mean fate has not yet come, why are you like this!" Yan Yu shouted, with everyone else looking puzzled at her.
After a few seconds, Yan Yu realized it was a sound transmission from Celestial Venerable Xiao Yao, others couldn’t hear it.
In an instant, Yan Yu’s face turned as red as a bubble teakettle, bowing her head slightly, not daring to speak again.
At this moment, Celestial Venerable Xiao Yao’s voice sounded once more.
[Li Cheng]
This was a person’s name.
The male cultivator who previously tried to harm Yan Yu heard this name and was instantly aghast, looking around frantically: "Who, who’s calling me?!"
[Your heart is wicked, you want to harm Yan Yu, unfit to be part of a national department]
Hearing this, Li Cheng immediately fell to his knees in fear, begging for mercy.
He didn’t know how Celestial Venerable Xiao Yao knew, but now, begging for mercy was most important.
[Vanish]
"Ah! No, please no!"
Amidst the horrified gazes of the onlookers, Li Cheng shockingly turned into a wisp of gray smoke, dissipating into the sky.
From then on, Li Cheng ceased to exist.
Li Zhen was the most shocked; he didn’t sense any Spiritual Power fluctuations, completely unable to understand how Li Cheng died.
It was as if he naturally turned into smoke and dispersed.
This is the power of a Great Emperor?
Terrifying indeed.
After Li Cheng’s death, everyone was silent for a long time but didn’t hear Celestial Venerable Xiao Yao’s voice again.
"Has the big boss Xiao Yao left?" It wasn’t until someone broke the silence that the rest breathed a sigh of relief.
Good that he left, good that he left.
"Let’s go back then." Li Zhen said, looking at Yan Yu, nodding slightly, with a newfound respect in his eyes.
From today on, Yan Yu’s status would change drastically.
Previously, when she said she was the Dao companion of Celestial Venerable Xiao Yao, not many believed her.
After all, it was just from within a game, Celestial Venerable Xiao Yao might not truly like her, dismissed as a joke.
But today, Celestial Venerable Xiao Yao saved Yan Yu, this is undoubtedly a statement.
He is Yan Yu’s Dao companion and is watching her at all times.
This is a form of deterrence!
...
Chen Lan stood on the rooftop, hands behind his back, watching everyone leave.
No one suspected him, nor did anyone consider him to be Celestial Venerable Xiao Yao.
"Interesting." Chen Lan’s lips slightly curled, he looked up at the sky: "Did you see that just now?"
[What did you see, Your Majesty?]
"Nothing." Chen Lan shook his head, not speaking further.
Instead, his gaze was fixed on the spot where the Thunder Tribulation disappeared, eyes heavy.
He hoped he was mistaken.
At the deepest part of the Thunder Tribulation, he caught a glimpse, in there,
there was a figure!
