🕑 Added 2023-05-29 19:30:34 +0000 UTCChp 2411: Some Kind of Important Little Goddess
When Yi Rou saw Song Han vomiting blood, she rushed over to support him.
“Brother, stop!” Yi Rou held up a hand to Yi Liang.
Yi Liang forcefully stopped in his tracks. He still bore some anger, and for a long time, he couldn’t calm down.
Ning Shu deeply felt that moral decency wasn’t important, what mattered was solely the decency of the looks.
The little fox chewed on the candied fruit and shouted impatiently to Yi Liang, "If she’s not obedient, just slap her! If you never give her a beating, she’ll really think that she’s some kind of important little goddess.”
Ning Shu: That made sense…
Yi Liang walked towards Yi Rou, raised his hand, and really slapped her in the face.
Yi Rou was stunned.
Little Fox: I was just joking…
Even Song Han, who had vomited blood and was still holding his chest, was stunned for a moment.
“Brother!” Yi Rou stared at the indifferent and seemingly heartless Yi Liang with wide eyes.
Yi Rou was extremely aggrieved.
"Our parents died early, so they couldn't educate you. In this case, since I am your only older brother, I must fulfill their parental responsibilities.”
Song Han saw that the corner of Yi Rou's mouth was bleeding, and quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe the blood off the corner of Yi Rou's mouth.
Yi Rou forced herself to smile at Song Han.
They were really acting like husband and wife.
On one hand, was her ruthless older brother and on the other, her sweet and considerate senior brother.
Yi Liang and Yi Rou didn’t have a strong relationship.
Except for their blood relations, they were pretty much strangers.
It was obvious who Yi Rou favored out of the two of them.
After all, the best lies were wrapped in beautiful packaging.
Song Han hugged Yi Rou. While gritting his teeth, he jumped onto a magic artifact, activated the secret method, and ran away in the blink of an eye, leaving only a small black spot behind.
Yi Liang stared at the direction in which he disappeared.
Ning Shu walked to Yi Liang's side and said to Yi Liang, "You’ve chosen your life and she’s chosen hers. Everyone should pay for their choices on their own.
“You don’t have to insist on taking on this responsibility.”
Even if he did, it wasn’t like Yi Rou would necessarily be grateful for it.
“I can’t figure out why Yi Rou is like this.” Yi Liang frowned.
“Yinyang Sect, Yinyang Sect…” Yi Liang kept repeating the name of the Yinyang Sect.
“You and your sister spent too little time together. You can’t ask her to do anything, and you can’t interfere with her decision and life," Ning Shu said.
“Don’t brood over it,” she continued. “Even if the entire world has failed and betrayed you, you must smile and tell this to fate: ‘Who cares?’”
Yi Liang turned his head to look at Ning Shu silently, without saying a word.
“You don’t like chicken soup for the soul?” Ning Shu asked. “Fine. Here’s a bowl of poisonous chicken soup, then. Ahem. How could you welcome the storm without first experiencing the wind and the rain? You must work very, very hard, in order to truly come to believe that you are powerless.
“As long as you work hard, there’s nothing that you can’t screw up.”
Yi Liang: …
“Yi Liang, you can’t wake up a person who’s stubbornly pretending to be asleep. Your sister will definitely come to realize the truth of things,” Ning Shu said. “What you need to do now is to calm down and cultivate.
“Only when you’re strong can you do whatever you want to do. With your current strength, to face the Yinyang Sect would be like hitting a stone with an egg. It’s useless.
“Plus, I can’t be by your side forever.”
The little fox also said, “I also want to go back to my clan to cultivate. I don’t have time to wander outside like this. I’m still too weak.”

Chp 2412: Fight Them to the Bitter End
“What do you plan to do now?” Ning Shu asked.
Yi Liang stared in the direction where the two had disappeared, turned around, and said, "Let’s go home."
What Yi Liang thought inwardly was that since Yi Rou was only eleven years old now, they shouldn't be able to make Yi Rou into a furnace so quickly.
He’d take two years to become stronger. Then, he’d go to the Yinyang Sect and fight them to the bitter end.
Yinyang Sect had become Yi Liang’s most important goal in life.
However, things didn't go as Yi Liang predicted.
Song Han had used a secret technique to escape, but this secret technique castrated his lifespan and threatened his future in cultivation.
After running away for a while, Song Han couldn’t bear it anymore and fell down. It frightened Yi Rou.
Song Han looked at her with a pale face and weakly said, “I can’t go on.”
Yi Rou’s tears suddenly rolled down like a curtain of pearls. She choked and said, “Senior Brother, you’ll be fine. You’ll be fine.”
Yi Rou never imagined that one of her senior brothers would leave her, and suddenly said in a panic, "Is there any way to save you? Any way?"
Song Han was suffering the after-effects of the secret technique, and while his body was weak, he was not actually about to die right there and then. When he saw Yi Rou crying and looking extremely worried, a glint flashed through his eyes.
Song Han clutched at his heart and made himself look so weak, like he was about to die. "There is a way to save me. You can save me."
"What way?" Yi Rou quickly asked.
"Xiao Rou, do you trust me?" Song Han held Yi Rou's hand.
Yi Rou nodded with tears in her eyes. "I do."
"Trust me, I won't hurt you." Song Han pressed against Yi Rou's body. A flush appeared on his face, which had been as pale as paper.
Being crushed by Song Han, Yi Rou instinctively felt uncomfortable, but she chose to trust Song Han.
Song Han endured the pain in his meridians and slowly unbuttoned Yi Rou's clothes, his eyes filled with eagerness.
Xiao Rou's yin origin was something that her master and senior brothers coveted. Since Yi Rou was still very young, no one mentioned it just yet, but they had all thought about it.
He wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to steal Xiao Rou’s yin origin. Even if their master and other senior brothers blamed him later, by that time, the rice would have already been cooked.
Moreover, Xi Rou herself was willing.
Song Han was harboring these wishful thoughts as he continued teasing Yi Rou.
Yi Rou felt very strange. One moment she felt comfortable, then in another, she felt uncomfortable. She felt an inexplicable sense of shame, but she didn’t resist. In the end, she melted.
Yi Rou innocently and confusedly asked Song Han, “Senior Brother, what are you doing to me?”
“Be good. Senior Brother will make you very comfortable.” Song Han's voice was low and hoarse. He felt that it was about time, so he started on the main course.
Song Han's main purpose was to steal Yi Rou's yin origin.
This time, Yi Rou’s face became twisted in pain. Her body was still very immature, and she felt as if her body was being pierced in half.
“Senior Brother, Senior Brother…” Yi Rou cried.
“Endure it. Just endure it a little more,” Song Han comforted Yi Rou indifferently, and moved on his own.
Although she still felt some pain, Yi Rou gradually felt less uncomfortable. Instead, she had a peculiar feeling of numbness, which spread throughout her limbs and bones.
Song Han looked at Yi Rou, who had become aroused under him, and couldn't help but smile.
Although Yi Rou hadn't been made into a furnace, she'd been given some medicinal herbs to make her body sensitive, and that place was very tight.
Although it was a cultivation method, it was also meant to give men ultimate happiness.
Yi Rou might only currently be a preteen, but her body had been made to always be ready to be picked.
Yi Rou's entire body was flushed red. Her body was undulating, and she fell into a blurred and indescribable happiness.
On the other hand, Song Han, who was on Yi Rou's body, had a strange expression on his face, frowning tightly.
Why was there no power flowing into his body? The injury on his body was also not getting better, either.
Even an ordinary furnace would be better than this. Using an ordinary furnace would have at least given him some power.

Chp 2413: Why Was There No Yin Origin?
Song Han had already overstrained his body, and he had put all of his hopes on obtaining Yi Rou’s yin origin. However, in the end, he didn’t get any power.
There was no yin origin. Song Han, who had experience with countless women, naturally could see that Yi Rou was a virgin, but why was there no yin origin?
There was no power that he could integrate with his body.
Song Han endured his pain and exhaustion and plowed for a long time, but still didn’t gain any strength.
Song Han was very annoyed and stopped moving. Yi Rou, who was under him, had already fainted. Her face was extremely rosy.
Song Han was puzzled. What the hell was going on? Could it be that someone had locked Yi Rou's power?
Instead of gaining strength, he ended up extremely tired. Song Han grabbed Yi Rou by her collar and returned to the Yinyang Sect.
After returning home, Yi Liang started to cultivate seriously.
The little fox had suffered a loss in the Yinyang Sect so he also started to cultivate seriously. From time to time, he’d run back to his clan, so Yi Liang and Ning Shu would often not see the little fox.
Meanwhile, Ning Shu worked day and night to dispel the baleful energy in the blood soul banner.
The following days were unprecedentedly quiet.
Yi Liang's stature was also growing slowly. He was now much different from the thin and weak Yi Liang whom Ning Shu first met before.
Yi Liang was growing up to be a man.
Knowing that Ning Shu was a fox, Yi Liang would give Ning Shu some meat at every meal.
After eating meat for every meal, Ning Shu became really sick of it. She told Yi Liang not to waste money. She’d just eat whatever dish he was eating.
Yi Liang would also occasionally buy some candied fruit to keep at home. The little fox would eat them as snacks when he came back.
Although their days were peaceful, Ning Shu could see that Yi Liang wasn’t at peace at all. He was obviously still worried about Yi Rou.
Yi Liang cultivated without break. He cultivated every time he could, almost without a stop.
“What’s the matter with you? Why are you so tired?” During a meal, Ning Shu saw that Yi Liang was restless. His eyes were bloodshot. He looked like he hadn't rested well.
Either that, or he was experiencing qi deviation.
Yi Liang ate a mouthful of porridge and rubbed his eyebrows. "I don't feel very well. My heartbeat keeps skipping. I can’t help but feel that something has happened to Rourou.
“It’s been more than three months, yet there’s still no news from Rourou. It makes me more uneasy by the day. I always feel like something has happened to her. Now I’ve even stopped progressing in my cultivation.
“I don’t know if it’s a hallucination or something, but I keep hearing Rourou calling me, again and again, asking me to save her.”
"What do you want to do?" Ning Shu asked. "Go to the Yinyang Sect?"
Yi Liang couldn't help covering his chest. His heart beat wildly and uncontrollably, like a beating drum, and it took a long time for it to return to normal.
Ning Shu had no objection. "We can go if you want."
“But can we really go? With just the two of us?” Although he wanted to save his sister, he knew that it would be difficult to break into the Yinyang Sect with only the strength of two people.
Ning Shu felt that Yi Liang should go save Yi Rou.
“Let’s go. It’s pointless to not go and keep worrying here anyways,” Ning Shu said.
Yi Liang nodded and packed up. He then went to buy some dry rations, water, and a weapon.
After she cleaned up, Ning Shu released her water dragon. Yi Liang jumped on it, and they disappeared in a flash.
However, the distance from the small town to the Yinyang Sect wasn’t short. Even with the extremely fast water dragon, it’d still take them two days to arrive.
Heaven’s Gorge was also still shrouded by fog. Yi Liang was a little worried. “How can we get in?”
The last time, they managed to enter because of a Yinyang Sect disciple, but it wouldn’t be easy to repeat that old trick this time.
Ning Shu calmly answered, “There’s no need to worry. We can just force our way in.”
The water dragon flew to the top of the barrier. Its body progressively became bigger and more solid. It then hit the barrier with its heavy tail.
The barrier trembled a couple of times, but it didn't break.
The water dragon directly smashed against the barrier again.

Chp 2414: Hand Over My Sister!
Ning Shu gave the water dragon a lot of spiritual energy, which merged into the water dragon’s body as if it were also water.
The water dragon's body progressively became more solid and its strength stronger. With a large boom, it slammed into the barrier.
The barrier shattered.
“Audacious! Who did this!?” a loud shout sounded. The sect leader of the Yinyang Sect narrowed his eyes when he saw the water dragon.
Ning Shu ignored him and rushed straight into the Yinyang Sect.
"Rourou, where are you?" Yi Liang lay on the water dragon and shouted down.
"Bastard!" The sect leader turned pale with anger. Anyone who saw someone breaking into their sect in such an unbridled manner would be as furious as he was.
Yi Liang ignored the yellings and attacks of the sect leader and released his qilin. The qilin was so huge that it directly destroyed a house.
Meanwhile, the water dragon’s tail was also sweeping any building it passed into ruins.
The disciples of the Yinyang Sect saw the water dragon and surrounded it. All the disciples of the Yinyang Sect were alarmed by such a big ruckus. They suspended themselves in the air and surrounded Ning Shu and Yi Liang.
"For you to come to the Yinyang Sect again and again to make trouble. Do you think that the Yinyang Sect is that easy to bully?”
"Hand over my sister!" Yi Liang roared.
"Your sister isn’t even here," Song Han said with a sneer.
"What do you mean?" Yi Liang asked with a bad expression.
Ning Shu closed her eyes to sense the surroundings, then opened her eyes and said, "Don't worry about what he said. I know where she is."
The water dragon under them rushed in one direction.
The sect leader’s expression turned dark. "Stop them!"
The qilin directly knocked the people chasing them away.
Ning Shu reached the top of a house. “She should be inside. Let’s look for her.”
Yi Liang jumped off the water dragon and followed behind Ning Shu.
Ning Shu felt that the presence was getting stronger and stronger. However, when they reached the place, they were blocked by a wall.
Yi Liang didn't say a word, and just blasted the stone wall open with his fist.
It was a secret room. There was a cage made of fine iron in the secret room, and a girl was sleeping in the cage.
She appeared messy, with blood, both red and dried black, on her clothes.
"Rourou, Rourou!" Yi Liang shouted at Yi Rou from outside the cage.
Yi Rou opened her eyes weakly. When she saw Yi Liang, her lips trembled. "Brother."
Yi Rou was very weak and lay motionless on the ground.
Yi Liang directly lifted the extremely heavy cage and left the secret room with Yi Rou on his back.
As soon as he came out, he was surrounded by people.
Yi Liang was furious that his sister was treated like this. When he saw Yi Rou's master and senior brothers, his eyes suddenly turned red.
Ning Shu released her water dragon, and the water dragon swung its tail in a swift move, sweeping away some of the weaker people around them.
"Let’s get out of here!"
Yi Liang hurriedly jumped onto the water dragon, and the water dragon quickly headed towards the gate, rushing towards the barrier.
The water dragon kept slamming against the barrier, which was much stronger than before.
The water dragon collided with the barrier for a while but failed to break it. The people from the Yinyang Sect had nearly already caught up with them.
Ning Shu looked at the formation, but the formation had already changed, and it wasn't the same as before.
Ning Shu looked for a way to break the formation, then had the water dragon slammed into the formation.
Meanwhile, Yi Liang released the qilin to fight with their pursuers. Finally, the formation was broken with a booming sound, and the water dragon carried Ning Shu and Yi Liang away from the Yinyang Sect extremely quickly.
Without stopping at all along the way, it flew back to the town.

Chp 2415: Never Imagined That They’d Go So Far
As soon as they arrived home, Yi Liang checked Yi Rou’s body and found that all her tendons had been broken.
Yi Liang couldn’t really come to terms with this for a while. He thought that his sister suddenly became like this because of him. Did the Yinyang Sect vent their anger on his sister?
Ning Shu’s paw pressed against Yi Rou’s belly. The yin origin was still there, so her spiritual roots should also be intact.
A female body had a thing called the pubis, which was said to be the woman’s source of strength.
And Yi Rou's pubis was shattered by Ning Shu. Her spiritual energy wrapped the fragments and locked Yi Rou’s strength and yin origin.
Yi Rou's current situation was what Ning Shu had expected.
Yi Rou's existence was meant to provide strength to these people, but she had no value to them now.
However, Ning Shu never imagined that they’d go so far as to break all her tendons.
Despite that, since Yi Rou still had spiritual energy, she would still be able to reshape her muscles and veins by slowly cultivating.
Yi Liang saw the scars on his sister’s body. He saw her tender skin, which was covered with bruises.
The bruises were clearly quite ambiguous at first glance.
As Yi Liang looked at them, his eyes were red, and tears almost rolled down his face.
Yi Liang wiped Yi Rou's body with water, and after he finished doing that, he went to cook some porridge.
When Yi Rou woke up, she was a little confused. When she saw Yi Liang who was standing beside the bed, her tears came down.
"Rourou, don't cry, come and eat something." Yi Liang helped Yi Rou, let her lean on him, and fed her spoon by spoon.
Yi Rou's tendons were broken, and all her limbs were limp.
"If you cultivate well, you can reshape your meridians," Ning Shu said.
Yi Rou obviously hadn't recovered from what she went through. Her eyes were blank and she seemed to not be present there.
Yi Liang supported Yi Rou to lie down and went out the door. He heard soft crying come from inside the room.
Yi Liang sighed and said sadly, "What should I do now?"
“The heavens would never cut off all paths, and there will always be some light even on the darkest nights. After this incident, perhaps your sister won’t be deceived by the Yinyang Sect again,” Ning Shu said consolingly.
“But… She’s so young, but she’s already suffered so much, at the hands of the Yinyang Sect…” Yi Liang rubbed his eyebrows.
Ning Shu sneered and said, “Even if she was defiled by the people of the Yinyang Sect, your sister still has her heavenly spiritual roots. If she started cultivating with a different method, your sister can be one of the strongest people in the world one day. The matter of Yinyang Sect will just be a small hurdle in her life. Once your sister becomes strong, she won’t need to rely on a man. At that time, would she still need to worry about being disdained by men?”
If she could live a good life independently, why should she care about men?
The matter had already happened anyway. Why bother paying attention to men who showed disdain for her?
Yi Liang scratched his head. "I was wrong. After hearing what you said, I don't think it’s a big deal, after all. It’s good enough that my sister could come home to me."
"I'll definitely find Rourou a husband who loves her in the future."
Ning Shu: →_→
Why was he obsessed with men?
Did women have no other way to survive than marriage?
Yi Liang tried his best to take care of Yi Rou. Yi Rou's body became much better, but her limbs were still limp.
Ning Shu squatted at the foot of the bed. She also took care of Yi Rou, all while still working to eliminate the baleful energy in the blood soul banner.
Yi Rou sometimes talked to Ning Shu with a look of confusion and helplessness.
Yi Rou didn't understand why her master and her senior brothers had changed abruptly.
Each of them took turns violating her body. However, at the time, Yi Rou didn't realize that they were violating her.
After it was over, the expressions of her master and her senior brothers were extremely annoyed and disappointed. They no longer looked at her as gently as they did before.
Later, as they violated her over and over again, their expressions became worse and worse. They gave her various medicines and checked her body.

Chp 2416: Anything That Had No Value Would Always Be Discarded
In the end, she was locked up and her limbs were crippled.
Ning Shu's expression was calm. She had expected all this.
If there had been no incident, Yi Rou would have been cherished by them forever. However, anything that had no value would always be discarded.
Ning Shu passed on a method to Yi Rou. She told her to work hard on cultivating, and that she would definitely be able to stand up again soon.
However, Yi Rou washed her face with tears every day and couldn't accept this kind of blow.
Ning Shu felt a little impatient. What was the point of acting so spoiled when she was dealing with her own survival?
Yi Liang made a wheelchair and pushed Yi Rou to go for a walk in the yard. Yi Liang had planted some flowers in the yard, and they were blooming beautifully.
Apparently, it was specifically planted for Yi Rou.
Yi Rou was still unhappy, though.
Ning Shu released the water dragon and told Yi Liang, “Go fetch your sister. We should go out for a walk.
“It’s boring to stroll around in the yard. If you want to go on a stroll, we should wander farther away.”
Yi Liang jumped onto the water dragon with Yi Rou on his back.
The water dragon slowly shuttled through the clouds, and then landed on the street.
This was the market next to the town, which was more prosperous than the town itself.
Yi Liang walked down the street with Yi Rou on his back.
"Look." Ning Shu raised her chin and gestured towards the corner of the street, where a dirty old woman was sitting with a broken bowl in front of her.
"If it wasn't for your brother, you would have become like this, tortured to death by the people of the Yinyang Sect,” Ning Shu said lightly. “If you’ve got food, clothes, and servants, only then do you have the time to feel sadness and sorrow. Your brother doesn’t owe you anything, and you’re not qualified to accept your brother’s care as if it’s only natural.”
There was a limit to a person's kindness and patience. It was never good to take advantage of the goodness of others.
"Your brother was like that child." A skinny child ran past Yi Liang. The child was clearly malnourished and starved.
Yi Liang looked at the child. He really was like this before. It was Xiao Hei who changed him.
Yi Rou burst into tears. "I feel bad."
"Leave her here. If she had to worry hard about how to fill her belly every day, she wouldn’t overthink things so much anymore," Ning Shu said casually.
Yi Liang: …
"Brother, don't!" Yi Rou begged in fear that Yi Liang would really throw her on the street.
"I won’t," Yi Liang comforted her.
Yi Liang took Yi Rou around and bought all kinds of toys to make her happy.
Yi Rou looked at these toys and thought of her senior brothers, who also liked to bring her all kinds of toys.
There were tears in Yi Rou's eyes again, but when she turned her head and saw the fox staring at her, she forced her tears back.
For some reason, she was a bit afraid of the fox.
She could act willfully towards her brother, but the fox’s indifferent attitude put her at a loss.
This was because the fox always spoke harshly and wouldn’t tolerate her.
People were naturally more comfortable and brave facing those who loved them.
After walking around for a while, the group headed back.
After they headed back, Yi Rou started to cultivate according to the exercises taught by Ning Shu.
Since her meridians had been broken, Yi Rou’s speed of cultivation was very slow. The good thing was that she had heavenly spiritual roots. Although her speed was slow, it was stable and was also still faster than the speed of those with ordinary roots.
Ning Shu breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Yi Rou had started to cultivate.
If it wasn't for Yi Liang, she wouldn't have made such a painstaking effort.
Since her task was to repay Yi Liang, there was no way she could leave Yi Liang's sister this depressed.

Chp 2417: As a Gift for Those in the Yinyang Sect
Ning Shu had done everything she did entirely for Yi Liang. Otherwise, she’d have been too lazy to care.
If Yi Liang could be reunited with his sister, she probably would get more points.
A spiritual root like the heavenly spiritual roots was the darling of the cultivation worlds. The heavens had given her such a good resource, but Yi Rou was actually doing nothing with it.
What a waste.
Those who were mentally determined to fight for their fate against the sky were usually not graced with such a unique condition.
She felt that Yi Rou was probably given such good conditions only to make her stand out, and as a gift for those in the Yinyang Sect.
There must be reasons and conditions for a life of indulging in the pleasures of the flesh.
Ning Shu was finally at ease and could continue transcending the souls in the blood soul banner.
Because of Ning Shu's perseverance, the baleful yin energy inside had already lessened by a lot, and the souls were now exposed without the umbrella of baleful yin energy.
Some of the souls were thin, while some were solid.
As long as the last few baleful yin energies were removed, these souls could be saved.
In her spare time, Ning Shu asked Yi Rou, "Do you hate them?"
"I don't hate them, but I do have some resentment. I just don't know why they’d treat me like this," Yi Rou said in confusion.
Fine. She was a simple person who had a simple mind and would not even bear hatred toward people who had wronged her so gruesomely.
“You’ll understand one day,” Ning Shu lightly replied.
Yi Rou’s temperament really made her suitable for the life of a canary.
After a period of tempering, the baleful yin energy in the blood soul banner was completely gone.
Ning Shu said to Yi Liang, “Release the souls inside and see your parents.”
Yi Liang took the blood soul banner and released the souls. Some of these souls were sluggish, and some were so thin that they almost disappeared.
A black hole slowly opened, and these souls instinctively drifted toward the black hole.
Yi Liang tried hard to find his parents, but there were too many souls. Yi Liang couldn't find them at all, so he had no choice but to keep calling for his parents.
These souls passed through Yi Liang's body, but Yi Liang never found the souls of his parents.
"Give me a piece of your hair," Ning Shu said to Yi Liang.
Yi Liang plucked his hair without thinking. Ning Shu chanted a spell and his hair floated up. Ning Shu said, "Your parents are your closest relatives, so you can follow your hair."
Yi Liang stared at his hair for a moment and then found two souls, who were holding hands.
It was a man and a woman. The soul of the woman was stronger than that of the man, and the soul of the man was so transparent that it was on the brink of disappearing.
"Father, Mother…!" Yi Liang suddenly shouted.
The woman turned her head in amazement. When she saw Yi Liang, however, she couldn’t speak.
The man's soul had a dull expression, and he was completely protected by the woman.
"Liang’er." The woman opened her mouth, but couldn't utter a sound.
"Hurry and let her go, the passage is about to close," Ning Shu said. The black hole was getting smaller and smaller, and if they didn’t enter the passage, they wouldn’t be able to reincarnate.
Even now, Ning Shu still hadn’t figured out what was on the other side of that black hole. Could it be hell?
“Mother, I’ll take good care of Sister,” Yi Liang said tearfully.
The woman smiled at Yi Liang, led the man away, and entered the black hole.
The black hole got smaller and smaller and finally disappeared as if it had never appeared at all.
Yi Liang squatted on the ground, buried his head in his knees, and cried for a while. He then prepared a tablet for his parents, to offer them three incense sticks a day.
Their following days were peaceful and calm. Yi Liang was now cultivating and improving his strength in addition to taking care of his sister.
Ning Shu guessed that Yi Liang wanted to destroy the Yinyang Sect.
Recently, Ning Shu felt very strange inwardly. She felt like something was watching her.
She felt like whatever it was, it was dangerous, but at the same time, she inexplicably longed for it.

Chp 2418: Time to Face the Tribulation
It couldn’t be that her tribulation was almost here, right?
She was no longer weak now. Perhaps it was her time to face the tribulation.
Ning Shu bid her goodbye to Yi Liang. When Yi Liang heard that Ning Shu was leaving, he was stunned. He quickly asked, “Will you come back?”
“Perhaps I will, perhaps I won't,” Ning Shu said ambiguously.
“Xiao Hei, I hope you'll come back,” Yi Liang said to Ning Shu.
Ning Shu nodded. “Maybe I’ll come back when I have free time.
“Cultivate well and you’ll become extremely powerful in the future. You’ll be able to protect what you want to protect. Avoid adding on any karmic hindrance if you can.” After Ning Shu finished speaking, she jumped over the wall of the courtyard and headed toward the forest.
Ning Shu felt that she had done enough and that she had repaid Yi Liang’s life-saving grace.
It was pure nonsense to repay someone with one’s own body.
Ning Shu ran deep into the mountains, and a tribulation cloud came over from the horizon, floating above her.
Sure enough, it was the tribulation.
A thunderbolt slashed toward Ning Shu with a bang.
Ning Shu hurriedly dodged, but the thunder and lighting seemed to lock in on her, which meant that she was unable to dodge at all.
A bolt of lightning struck her body, and Ning Shu suddenly felt pain inwardly. She felt as if all the bones in her entire body had been shattered.
All the fur on her body was scorched, and she became pitch black.
Moreover, each thunder and lightning were stronger than the last. Although the spiritual energy in the body could help relieve the injury, the thunder and lightning came too rapidly, and there were no signs of it stopping.
Ning Shu didn't know how other spiritual creatures experienced tribulations, but her thunder tribulations really came immediately one after the other, and they wouldn’t stop at all.
No wonder Bai Sanniang was smashed to pieces by her tribulation thunder and nearly had her soul completely dissipated.
And she couldn’t help but recall every world that she’d experienced, each one after the other.
She also remembered her own parents and older brothers, who seemed like a faraway dream now.
Was the tribulation drawing out her inner demons?
Ning Shu gritted her teeth to keep her emotions stable. Despite having experienced so many worlds, this was the first time in her life that she had gone through a thunder tribulation.
The lightning struck Ning Shu's body, and the cells in Ning Shu's body wailed in pain.
Ning Shu released the water dragon and asked the water dragon to temporarily help block the thunder. She was really out of breath.
With a loud bang, the tribulation thunder draped over the water dragon, instantly splitting the water dragon into separate droplets.
Soon the water droplets regathered and formed back into a water dragon, which once again resisted the thunder tribulation.
One after another, the tribulation thunder struck the water dragon, and the water dragon was split into water droplets again and again.
However, it seemed that the water dragon was also getting stronger. Earlier, it kept being split into water droplets, but it was now only halved by the thunder, and it also merged back more quickly now.
The rumbling of thunder sounded for a long time until the tribulation cloud finally dissipated.
Ning Shu felt a powerful force pour into her body, then she slowly grew human limbs.
Ning Shu was naked.
Immediately, white clothes appeared on her body, which were probably clothes formed from her own fur.
This kind of transformation felt really weird.
After having gotten used to running on four legs, Ning Shu still felt that her center of gravity was unstable as she had to get used again to walking on two legs.
Ning Shu looked at the water dragon, who had blocked the thunder for a while for her.
The water dragon’s body had become more solid, and his eyes had also become more spirited.
After its baptism of thunder tribulation, the water dragon had become more lifelike than before.
She hoped that one day, the water dragon could form its own intelligence.
Ning Shu let out a long sigh of relief. She had finally survived the calamity.
In front of the power of heaven and earth, man was really powerless.
It was terrifying.
Really terrifying.

Chp 2419: Bai Sanniang Had Pretty Good Looks
Ning Shu looked at herself in the brook. Bai Sanniang had pretty good looks.
She didn't have the typical seductiveness associated with foxes. Instead, she looked calm and cold.
In this completely white outfit, she almost seemed like Chang’e from the Moon Palace.
With a tap of her foot, Ning Shu flew up onto a branch. She gazed out at the unending expanse of mountains. It was a beautiful view.
Ning Shu started cultivating in the mountains. In her free time, she looked around to see if there was any treasure around.
She did manage to find some treasures, such as a thousand-year stone milk. She swallowed a drop, but all of it got absorbed by the water dragon.
It was a shame that the water dragon wasn't a living creature. If it was, she could have given it an intelligence pill.
Aside from cultivating, Ning Shu also visited the town from time to time.
She would occasionally go visit Yi Liang, but she only secretly checked on him. She didn't show up in front of him.
After she checked on him, she would leave.
Even without her, Yi Liang was living very well. He was now living with Yi Rou.
Yi Rou's meridians hadn't been reformed, so she still couldn't walk. However, the two of them were living peacefully together.
As for the Yinyang Sect, that was Yi Liang's problem. It wasn't any of her business.
Ning Shu once again returned to the deep mountains and continued to cultivate, living a very simple life.
However, she felt very much at peace. She was far away from all the noise and the bustle of human crowds.
Her heart was calm like never before.
“Task complete. Would you like to leave the task world immediately?" 2333's voice appeared in Ning Shu's mind.
Ning Shu nodded. “Yes."
She felt a moment of dizziness, and when she opened her eyes next, she was already in the system space.
Ning Shu saw that the black hole on the wall created by the fusion process of the two pearls was getting smaller and smaller. After a bit more time, it would probably close completely.
She decided to first sit down to cultivate and absorb the pure soul energy in the space.
After she finished cultivating, she took out the mala bracelet and started reciting the heart-clearing chant.
She spent some time clearing her mind.
After she was done, she let out a long sigh, exhaling the last of the negative emotions.
Sitting cross-legged on the floor, she tapped open the stats panel.

Proficient practitioner of Unsurpassable Martial Arts.
Ning Shu: Hohoho
The harvest this time really was quite bountiful. She even got the ability to communicate with animals!
Although there were limitations and she wouldn't be able to communicate with creatures like single-celled organisms that didn't really have intelligence.
However, she was still very happy. For better or for worse, it was an additional skill.
There were 8000k experience points and 80 attribute points. She had never gotten this much before. It seemed that Bai Sanniang was very satisfied with how this task turned out.
Ning Shu happily allocated all the points.

"Bai Sanniang asked me to pass on her thanks." 2333 said, "She's grateful that you didn't create romantic ties between her and Yi Liang."
The road of cultivation was extremely difficult and filled with obstacles. Even the smallest mistake could lead to one’s death.
"All living creatures have their own paths, and the paths of humans and monsters were naturally different. They cannot be forcefully combined."
Ning Shu nodded. As expected, repaying someone with one's own body was nonsense. How could giving yourself to someone possibly count as repayment to them?
Ning Shu asked 2333, "Is anything fixed?"
"The passageway to the fabricated space is fixed."
Ning Shu was overjoyed. It was finally fixed?
"Then I'm going to go check out the fabricated space." Ning Shu went to stand at the passageway to the fabricated space.
After a moment of a weightless sensation, she was standing on quaint bluestone slabs again.
Walking past all around her were task-takers.
Ning Shu headed towards a store to exchange for some fasting pills.
Since the system marketplace was broken, she had no choice but to exchange for items here.
However, fasting pills were very invaluable, so hardly any shops bothered to sell them.
Ning Shu had to visit several stores before she finally found some in a small store.
She exchanged for a lot of fasting pills, then spent some more experience points to buy a sofa, a bookshelf, and a bed. She then bought some random books from a street stall.
There were all kinds of books, including ones containing myths about the system space and some task-takers.
There were also some secret arts manuals. There were even romance novels??
Ning Shu also got some small potted plants for decoration.
After all, she was a romantic young girl with a poetic temperament!
But honestly, she really couldn't stand seeing the empty system space anymore. With these, the space wouldn't look so monotonous anymore.
After the shopping spree, she decided to head to a restaurant. It felt like it had been forever since she last ate something. Furthermore, in this soul state, no matter how much she ate she wouldn't get any fatter and it would even strengthen her soul.
