"How is that possible, Senior?" Ling Ling panicked at Ling Xi's words, and Ling Yun also looked at her in confusion.
Unlike them, Lian Bing was still calm, as if she had expected the outco to be as Ling Xi had said.
Ling Xi sighed softly. "As cultivators, starting from the King Realm, we will experience the lightning tribulation, but it is very small at that stage. However, when we break through to the Emperor Realm, then the lightning tribulation will beco extrely powerful, because that stage is the true foundation of cultivation. As for Lian Bing, her physique is too weak to withstand the lightning tribulation in the Emperor Realm, and she only has a 10% chance of successfully passing it."
"What!? Only 10% chance? Isn't that too low?" Ling Ling then hugged Lian Bing tightly. "Sister Bing, I-"
"You don't need to think about it, Ling'er." Lian Bing cut her off, as she hugged her back tightly as well.
Lian Bing herself was not surprised by Ling Xi's words, as she had already realized long ago that her body was indeed not strong enough to withstand the lightning tribulation in the Emperor Realm. In the past, she had even fallen into a coma for quite a while after she had broken through to the King Realm, but she had managed to survive in the end.
Seeing them like that, Ling Yun sighed heavily in his heart. He knew for a fact that Lian Bing ant a lot to his big sister, and if she were to die later due to the lightning tribulation, he was certain that his big sister would live in misery and regret for the rest of her life. "Don't you have a way to help her, Ling Xi?"
"Of course, I have one way to help her." They were looking at Ling Xi seriously, but instead, she was looking at them with a playful smile. "To be honest, I can't do anything for her, but you can help her, Ling Yun."
"Hmm? How can I help her? Even my cultivation is still far below hers." Ling Yun asked with a raised eyebrow, as he felt that he would not be able to help Lian Bing pass through her lightning tribulation.
Lian Bing and Ling Ling were also confused by that, and they also thought that Ling Yun couldn't help her. Ling Ling then asked Ling Xi with anticipation. "How can Yun'er help Sister Bing, Senior?"
"Firstly, Ling Yun has to reach the Core Realm first before he can help her." Ling Xi then looked at Lian Bing with a mysterious smile, making her shudder. "Secondly, Lian Bing must dual cultivate with him when she breaks through to the Emperor Realm."
"Eh!?" Lian Bing and Ling Yun were stunned by her words.
Unlike them, Ling Ling smiled broadly at that; she herself wished that Lian Bing would beco a mber of her little brother's harem. "Do they really have to dual cultivate, Senior?"
Ling Xi chuckled and answered her question. "Yes! She must pass her lightning tribulation while dual cultivating with him, and Ling Yun will use his body as her lightning rod."
"Fuck! Isn't that the sa as killing ?" Ling Yun cursed loudly. He was certainly willing to help Lian Bing pass through her lightning tribulation, but if he had to help her by using his body as a lightning rod, then he would have to do so repeatedly. Even Lian Bing herself couldn't withstand the lightning tribulation with her physique and cultivation, let alone soone like him whose cultivation was far below hers.
Ling Ling was also shocked by that, and she wasn't sure that Ling Yun would be able to withstand Lian Bing's lightning tribulation, because his cultivation was still very far from the Emperor Realm.
Lian Bing sighed and shook her head before she spoke. "We can't do it that way, Senior. Perhaps, it's my fate to die in the lightning tribulation, and I won't regret it. Moreover-"
"No!" Ling Ling shouted, she hugged Lian Bing tighter, and she started to sob. "I don't want you to die, Sister Bing! I want you to accompany by my side forever!"
"You don't act like this, Ling'er." Lian Bing sighed heavily, she herself didn't want to leave Ling Ling, let alone die. But she never wanted to marry any man, so she didn't want to dual cultivate with Ling Yun. Moreover, it was also too risky for him to be her lightning rod.
"No!" Ling Ling shook her head vigorously.
"Haha!" Ling Xi burst out laughing at their reactions, and she then spoke again. "You are such a fool, Ling Yun. Have you forgotten that you possess the lightning elent? Moreover, you also possess the Elental Body Technique. If you beco her lightning rod, then Lian Bing's lightning tribulation will greatly benefit you, and she will also make it through safely."
"Is that true, Senior? Will they survive if Sister Bing dual cultivates with Yun'er during the breakthrough?" Before Ling Yun could speak, Ling Ling had already spoken excitedly.
Ling Xi nodded to her. "Yes, they will survive, and it will also greatly benefit them."
"Do I really have to dual cultivate with her?" Ling Yun was certain that Lian Bing would not be able to accept Ling Xi's crazy idea. "Couldn't I have countered it straight away?"
Ling Xi sighed and lectured him. "Sigh! If you counter it directly, then the lightning tribulation will not hit Lian Bing's body, thus her cultivation will not be able to progress further, because she will only encounter the lightning tribulation of the Emperor Realm once in her life."
"So you're saying I have to absorb the lightning from the tribulation lightning after it hits her body? That way she doesn't explode from it?" He spoke while nodding in understanding.
"Yes, more or less like that."
Ling Ling then looked at Lian Bing. "Sister Bing-"
Lian Bing imdiately covered Ling Ling's mouth and shook her head, then she firmly stated. "I will not dual cultivate with him, Ling'er. If I must die from the lightning tribulation, then so be it."
Hearing that, tears welled up in Ling Ling's eyes, and she knew that it would not be easy to persuade Lian Bing to accept Ling Yun. But of course, she wasn't going to give up so easily, because she didn't want to lose her.
[Do you want to help you get Lian Bing, Ling Yun?] Ling Xi asked in his mind directly.
Ling Yun frowned and shook his head. 'You don't need to do anything to her, Ling Xi. If she doesn't want to accept , then I don't want to force her. I only want won who accept wholeheartedly to beco mbers of my harem.'

[Author's Thought]
To be honest, I get annoyed with people who always complain about grammar and demand too much for perfect grammar.
Anyway, I'm not complaining about my life, but I'm sure many of the readers on this platform haven't experienced how hard it is to be married and raise children.
Like now, I'm working on another island; I have to work from 7 a.m. and often until 8 p.m.; even worse, I have to leave my family for three weeks.
When I'm at ho, I still have to work in the office from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.; I still have to help with my wife's work, and I also still have to accompany my two children.
I am aware that my grammar is not that good, but I feel that my grammar is already much better than that of many other novels on this platform.
Moreover, English is my fourth language, and I've been trying to improve my grammar by using Grammarly and Quillbot.
So if you demand perfect grammar, it's better if you guys read novels from authors who are very fluent in English.
