"How many days have you not rested?" Tang Rao frowned and said, "If you don't take care of your body, at least consider Li Li. If you work yourself to death, she'll be left a widow."
"Cut the crap, how about the formation on ?" Yan Wei asked, "Is it inscribed by Yun Xi?"
"There's no way to solve it." Tang Rao shrugged his shoulders, "At least for now, I have no way to deal with it. Although I understand many formations, I've never seen this one before. Plus, I'm only familiar with formations; I don't have a clue about breaking them. What's more, the thod Yun Xi used to inscribe the formation on is different from ordinary formations, making it even harder to deal with."
"Are you just waiting to die?" Yan Wei asked, surprised.
"How could that be possible, I've co to you for help," Tang Rao shrugged.
"I know nothing about formations either, how can I help?" Yan Wei shook his head. He could tackle a technical problem with effort, but when it ca to formations, he was truly helpless.
Tang Rao walked over to Yan Wei, lowered his head, and whispered a few words in his ear.
Yan Wei's eyes imdiately widened.
"This... could work, but doing so, you'll be crippled!" Yan Wei exclaid.
"Being crippled is better than dying. Besides, I've been crippled before, I don't mind one more ti. At most, it will just take a few more years, I can't just stubbornly hold on and then kick the bucket, right?" Tang Rao spread his hands and said.
Yan Wei fell silent.
Indeed, Tang Rao was right, being crippled was better than dying.
Once dead, everything is gone; as long as you're alive, there's always hope, there's always a possibility.
"Alright, I'll try my best, half a year should be enough," Yan Wei nodded.
"This matter, just the two of us should know, there's no need to tell a third person," Tang Rao said.
"Jinxiu is very worried about you," Yan Wei muttered.
"I know," Tang Rao nodded but didn't say anything further.
Yan Wei nodded. Since Tang Rao didn't want to tell Fang Jinxiu, it would be best not to ntion it.
This was Tang Rao's arrangent, and he just had to follow through.
"I'll be off then, and hey, don't overdo it, rember to rest. You make it look like I'm mistreating you, no need to work overti like this, focus on a gradual approach going forward," Tang Rao said to Yan Wei.
He also knew Yan Wei's temperant, once he had an idea, he would furiously chase it until the end or until he couldn't handle it anymore.
Such a disposition is undoubtedly a valuable trait in research, but Yan Wei now has a family. If this continues, he and Luo Lili will inevitably face problems.
"At least, spend so ti every day with Li Li, she's your wife now, family should always be more important than work," Tang Rao said.
"Okay, I'll listen to you, I'm done working," Yan Wei let go of the keyboard, then stood up, his body violently shaking, almost unable to stay upright.
"See, you can't even stand straight, right? Don't end up impotent before even having a kid, young man, take care to rest more and get so exercise," Tang Rao rolled his eyes and said.
"When did you start nagging so much..."
"Thinking that I might only live for another six months, I have an endless number of things I want to say," Tang Rao said with a sad face.
"A disaster lasts for a thousand years, I reckon you won't die that easily," Yan Wei snorted. He was still confident in Tang Rao's survival skills.
This guy could even chance upon the one-in-a-million Reincarnation Technique; he definitely wouldn't die so easily.
"Thanks a lot!" Tang Rao raised his middle finger at Yan Wei, then left the control room.
...
Tang Rao went to the Central Emperor Realm and located Dong Xia.
Of course, he had the guard at the entrance relay the ssage, and it cost him a hundred Spirit Stones, damn it, the guard wouldn't budge even for fifty, utterly ridiculous.
When Dong Xia found Tang Rao, two hours had already passed. She was in the tavern diagonally across from Cui Baiyi's courtyard.
"Aren't you afraid that Cui Baiyi will discover you?" Dong Xia sat opposite Tang Rao, her arm propping up her head.
"What's there to fear? You said if Cui Baiyi touches , you'd finish him off. I have supre confidence in you." Tang Rao said with a smile.
Dong Xia gave Tang Rao a surprised look. He seed a bit different today.
"What happened?" Dong Xia asked.
Tang Rao's heart jolted. Dong Xia really had a keen intuition, she sensed sothing was off from a minor emotional shift of his.
"I'm going to die," Tang Rao said.
"What?" Dong Xia's voice raised by several octaves.
"I said I'm going to die..." Tang Rao shrugged his shoulders, "I've been set up, I'll live at most another half a year. My body has been marked with an Array, with eighteen sealed death points acting as the array nodes, forming a complex Great Formation of death points. I'm powerless against it, and I can't even think of anyone who could break this sealed Array mark."
"Rip!" In the next mont, Dong Xia stretched out her hand and tore Tang Rao's clothes open.
Forget about the others around, even Tang Rao himself was startled by Dong Xia's abruptness. Holy shit, do you have to be so impulsive? And in such a public place. Luckily I use Illusion Technique on my face whenever I go out. If others recognized that I am Tang Rao, you would have ruined my lifelong reputation.
"Malicious!" Soon after, Dong Xia's expression turned grim.
"Who did this?" Dong Xia asked, but quickly, sothing ca to her mind, "Was it Yun Xi?"
Tang Rao was startled. Actually, the reason he ca to see Dong Xia was to inquire if she knew anything about Yun Xi.
Yun Xi marking his body with such an Array was definitely not unintentional. There had to be an underlying sche.
If Yun Xi were rely an ordinary person from Blue Star, no matter how ambitious or cold-hearted she was, she wouldn't commit such an act. Unless, she had already been involved with the Nine Realms and the Seventy-two Domains.
"Is she with the Soul Capture Pavilion?" Tang Rao asked.
Yun Xi looked at Tang Rao, took a deep breath, and slowly nodded.
"Damn!" Tang Rao cursed out loud, "Soul Capture Pavilion, always the damn Soul Capture Pavilion. I swear it's been my downfall this entire lifeti. If I don't annihilate the Soul Capture Pavilion, I won't rest even in death!"
Tang Rao was truly enraged. The incident with i Fanghua was because of the Soul Capture Pavilion, and now he had been trapped by Yun Xi, still the Soul Capture Pavilion.
"Why bother finding girlfriends randomly? It would be so much better with ; you'll never have to worry about setting you up. I would only assist you—help you achieve greatness and help you reign supre," Dong Xia said.
Tang Rao: "..."
I'm in the middle of raging here, can you not divert to that topic?
I really don't feel that way about you; I don't like how scheming you are.
And about Yun Xi, well, she's even more of a cunning soul. But what can I do? It's my fault for not noticing it.
Tang Rao had to admire Yun Xi's ability to remain hidden.
If it weren't for Fang Jinxiu's chance enlightennt of this bizarre Array and the Heavenly Dao during the Heavenly Tribulation, perhaps he wouldn't have realized it until the mont of his death.
Too sinister.
