Lin Ziyi smiled and said, "I, Lin Ziyi, am confident that you, Ye Tian, will always love me. Besides, how much time have you spent by my side in this past year? You're either busy outside, cultivating, or traveling all over the place. Although we've been apart more than together, our feelings are still very good. So I'm not that fragile. As long as you have me in your heart, I won't mind anything else."
Ye Tian sneered, "Lin Ziyi, I don't know why you suddenly came up with this idea, but I suggest you cast it aside. Live a good life with me from now on, have four children for the Ye family, be a good wife and mother, and don't think about these wild things!"
A wave of warmth surged through Lin Ziyi's heart. She hugged her lover, a satisfied smile appearing on her pretty face, "I understand!"
She knew that Ye Tian couldn't accept such a thing immediately. Including Zhu Hongyan, she also needed time to consider it carefully. But it was okay, there was still time.
Lin Ziyi hadn't slept all night. Ye Tian told her not to go to work and massaged her for a while. Finally, she fell into a deep sleep.
After coaxing Lin Ziyi to sleep, Ye Tian drove to Haicheng. He needed to collect more medicinal herbs for alchemy.
As his car traveled towards Haicheng and entered the highway, after driving for tens of kilometers, he suddenly felt a wave of weakness. He quickly steered the car into the slow lane.
Cold sweat beaded on his forehead, his hands gripping the steering wheel felt weak and limp, and his eyelids grew heavy, a wave of drowsiness washing over him.
"What's going on?" He was both surprised and scared.
The situation was getting worse. He decided to drive into a service area and simultaneously used voice command to wake up his phone and call Lin Ziyi.
Lin Ziyi had only slept for an hour. Thanks to Ye Tian's massage, she felt much better. Upon receiving the call, she asked, "Tian Ge, where are you going?"
Ye Tian's voice was very weak. "Ziyi, something is very wrong with my body. I'm entering a service area now. Send a car to pick me up."
Lin Ziyi almost jumped out of bed, tears immediately streaming down her face. Could it be that the so-called tribulation had arrived?
She quickly said, "Tian Ge, are you okay? Do I need to bring a doctor?"
Ye Tian replied, "I am the doctor. Just send someone to pick me up."
Lin Ziyi said, "Okay, I'll come to pick you up right away."
Ten minutes later, Ye Tian drove his car into the service area. By then, even breathing had become difficult for him. He opened the car window and sent his location to Lin Ziyi.
An overwhelming drowsiness came over him. He slowly closed his eyes, his thoughts descending into a chaotic state, filled with dreams, and his brain was almost incapable of thinking.
Lin Ziyi had never driven so fast. Her speed had not dropped below 150 kilometers per hour throughout the journey. Finally, twenty minutes later, she arrived at the service area.
Soon, she spotted Ye Tian's car and quickly got out to check on him.
At this moment, Ye Tian had fallen unconscious. His complexion was sallow, his skin was covered in fine sweat, and his condition was very poor.
"Tian Ge, what happened to you?" Lin Ziyi cried, her tears falling, gently shaking him.
Ye Tian forced his eyes open and smiled, "Ziyi, I'm fine. Help me to the back seat. You drive this car, and we'll head back to Haicheng first."
Although his mind was hazy, he still had an accurate judgment of the situation. He knew that Haicheng was relatively safer at the moment, whereas Ye Family Manor was not a suitable place to stay.
Lin Ziyi nodded vigorously. She helped Ye Tian into the back seat, parked the car she had driven there, and then drove him towards Haicheng.
As she drove, she kept observing Ye Tian's condition through the rearview mirror.
"Tian Ge, why did you suddenly fall ill?"
Ye Tian sighed, "This is a step I had to face sooner or later. This is the Human Immortal Tribulation."
He hadn't been entirely sure before, but after his mind cleared up this time, he immediately thought of a tribulation during the Human Immortal stage, which was called the Human Immortal Tribulation. If he survived this tribulation safely, he would have a great chance of stepping into the Profound Realm. If he couldn't overcome it, the consequences would be quite severe, ranging from permanent disability to death!
Lin Ziyi cried, "If I had known, we wouldn't have become Human Immortals."
