"Shut up!"
Lin Tang was fed up. How could the Immortal Artifact his master left him be so ridiculous?
"Of course I have a way to keep my wife safe," he said.
"What way?"
"Watch this!" Lin Tang grinned, then his body trembled and transford.
ROAR!
A dragon's roar cut through the clouds and shattered rocks. A golden dragon, over a hundred ters long, soared through the air before coming to a halt, looking down imperiously upon the Seven-Colored Auspicious Cloud and Jiang Mulu.
Young Master, you've beco so huge! How could my tiny body possibly carry you? And… that thod you ntioned to keep your wife safe, don't tell it's…
GULP!
Lin Tang opened his cavernous maw and inhaled, swallowing Jiang Mulu whole.
"See? Everything's fine now, isn't it?"
The Seven-Colored Auspicious Cloud was speechless. Jiang Mulu, wherever she was, was surely on the verge of tears.
Believe it or not, Lin Tang's terrible idea actually worked. In just a few breaths, the Seven-Colored Auspicious Cloud had transported him back to the Human Realm. Lin Tang then retched, spitting Jiang Mulu back out. Aside from being completely drenched and wearing a look of utter despair, she was, surprisingly, completely unhard.
"Ahhh, Lin Tang, I'm never sleeping with you again!" she shrieked, pouting furiously. She quickly jumped into the river to wash herself off.
Lin Tang returned to his human form and smacked his lips. "I didn't even complain that you tasted bad, and you have the nerve to be disgusted with ?"
The Seven-Colored Auspicious Cloud trembled nearby, terrified that it might be eaten next. Though it wouldn't be hard, the experience would be utterly disgusting!
"Hey, Young Master, what about that stupid mirror? Why isn't it with you?" the cloud asked.
"A year ago, it secretly siphoned off a lot of my True Qi and then ran off without so much as a goodbye. I have no idea where it went, and I don't care," Lin Tang explained.
"What an ungrateful wretch! Not like . I only ever worry about you, Young Master, and would never leave your side."
Once Jiang Mulu had finished bathing, Lin Tang took her to the capital city of Central Earth. It had been over three years since she had last seen Jiang Shan, and it was high ti for a family reunion. As for himself…
My foundation has long reached its limit! This ti, I will use Dual Cultivation to break through to the Divinity Transformation Realm in one go!
Lin Tang could hardly wait. He decided to find Shen Youling right away, intending to skip the middle and late Nascent Soul stages and ascend directly to the Divinity Transformation Stage.
However, when he arrived in Jiangbei and swept his Divine Sense across the city, he discovered that the person sitting in the president's office of the Tianxiang Cardamom Group wasn't Shen Youling at all. It was Shen Jiayue, who had usurped the position like a cuckoo in its nest. A further scan of the area revealed no trace of Shen Youling.
Hmm?
Lin Tang was taken aback. With a flash, he appeared at the president's office door, pushed it open, and stepped inside.
"Shen Jiayue, where is your sister?"
"Who?" Shen Jiayue was busily handling company affairs, brimming with confidence, when the sudden voice made her jolt. Fearing so monster from the Underworld had crept in, she was about to summon her protectors. But when she looked up, her expression shifted. "It's you? Lin Tang?! You heartless scoundrel, you finally decided to show your face? I thought you'd died on the battlefield long ago." Her initial surprise quickly turned to anger and contempt.
"I asked you, where is Shen Youling?" Lin Tang stepped forward and wrapped a hand around her throat. His icy aura bore down on her, nearly shattering her soul.
"I-I-I don't know where she is now," she stamred, trembling like a quail as soon as she could breathe again. "A year ago, we saw it with our own eyes! A mirror suddenly appeared over her head—it could even talk! It asked if she wanted to go with it... and she actually went! We blinked, and she was gone. We haven't been able to find her since..."
"A mirror?" Lin Tang was stunned, his expression turning grim. The Yin Yang Mirror? What is that ungrateful wretch trying to do? And Shen Youling, that idiot... don't tell she's trying to…
WHOOSH!
He vanished on the spot, racing toward Fengqi Mountain and leaving a dumbfounded Shen Jiayue alone in her office.
「A few breaths later.」
Lin Tang appeared above Fengqi Mountain. His Divine Sense swept the area again and again, but he found nothing.
I should have known it would be like this… Did they really think this kind of concealnt could stop ? He then roared, "OPEN!"
He instantly transford back into a dragon, his massive claw clamping down on the mountain peak. As the ground quaked violently, the entire Fengqi Mountain began to rise, bit by bit. In his towering rage, Lin Tang had truly moved a mountain!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
When the entire mountain was flung far into the distance, causing a massive earthquake, the tomb that Xi nghan had once concealed was exposed before his eyes.
Lin Tang reverted to his human form and walked into the tomb step by step, his face an emotionless mask. Inside, he saw the coffins of Xi nghan and the others. And in the final coffin lay none other than Shen Youling. The Yin Yang Mirror was also there, hanging on the stone wall, constantly emitting a beam of light that enveloped her body.
Lin Tang stood with his hands behind his back and stated indifferently, "I need an explanation."
The Yin Yang Mirror remained silent for a mont before speaking. "This was all Shen Youling's own choice. It is her destiny."
"Is that so?" Lin Tang flicked his hand, summoning a sharp flying sword that shot fiercely toward the coffin.
"Are you insane?" the Yin Yang Mirror cried, hurriedly flying out to block the blade. "If you disrupt her fusion with her past-life mories now, you will kill her!"
"A-Yun, knock it aside for !" Lin Tang commanded coldly.
"Yes!" The Seven-Colored Auspicious Cloud, looking mighty and valiant, forcefully ramd the Yin Yang Mirror to the side.
With a flick of his flying sword, Lin Tang sent the coffin lid flying, revealing the unconscious Shen Youling lying within.
"Spirit Soul, erge!"
Lin Tang released his Spirit Soul, an entity ford from the fusion of his Divine Sense and his own spiritual essence. It flew toward the center of Shen Youling's brow, preparing to rge with her.
