"Pfft!"
Ye Xingchen's face flushed red when she saw Ling Yun's appearance. She turned her head and spat lightly, unable to say another word.
Ye Xingchen, the peerless Demoness who looked down on the world, felt her heart pounding. It was too embarrassing!
She had seen the last strike of the tribulation with her own eyes and knew that the power of that lightning was too terrifying. She had been too worried about Ling Yun's life and death to care about anything else.
She had rushed down too quickly. Only ten breaths had passed before Ling Yun was blasted into the seabed. Moreover, she had the Water Repellent Pearl, which allowed her to dive straight into the seabed. There was no time to hide at all, and Ling Yun was enveloped in her water-repellent space.
Furthermore, because the last lightning strike had blasted a hole in the seabed with a diameter of only three meters, the space was too narrow. Ye Xingchen had almost crashed into Ling Yun.
Even though Ye Xingchen was an unparalleled Demoness, she still couldn't withstand the shock and embarrassment she felt. Moreover, Ling Yun's words, his demeanor, his expression, and his tone made her even more bashful.
It had to be said that the scene before her was a marvel.
No one could have imagined that in the boundless East Sea, five hundred meters below the surface, there was another two-hundred-meter-deep hole. At the bottom of the pitch-black, narrow hole was a blue water-repellent space. There were two people, a man and a woman. One was sitting cross-legged, and the other was standing shyly with her head turned.
Fifty meters above the hole was seawater blocked by the Water Repellent Pearl's water-repellent space. Further up was seawater about seven hundred meters deep, enveloping this place into an extremely secluded space. The blue shimmering space accentuated an endless sense of mystery.
This was what it meant to be a man and a woman alone!
"Haha, Xingchen, so you can be shy too?"
Ling Yun raised his head and stared at the bashful Ye Xingchen, admiring her to his heart's content. He didn't even blink as he grinned. "And here I thought you'd never be shy."
Of course, Ling Yun knew that Ye Xingchen had rushed down in such a hurry because she was worried about his life. However, he had already successfully transcended the tribulation, and his strength had skyrocketed by at least three times. He was too strong, and he no longer feared any unexpected situations. That was why he had the time to flirt with Ye Xingchen.
"Tch! Don't you have any shame? Hurry up and put on your clothes! "
Ye Xingchen turned her head away. Even her neck was red. Knowing that Ling Yun was sitting still, she immediately stomped her feet and scolded him.
"Put on some clothes? I would love to, but this tribulation destroyed two sets of my Battle Dharma Robes. Where would I find any clothes to wear now? "
Ling Yun spouted nonsense with a straight face. He first said that he had no clothes to wear, then sighed dejectedly. "Besides, I was struck too hard by the last bolt of tribulation lightning just now. My body is now numb and I can't move at all. Even if I had clothes, I wouldn't be able to wear them."
Of course, this was also a lie. Before the last bolt of tribulation lightning struck, Ling Yun had used the Essence Condensation Technique to condense golden Immortal Core Power and released it to form the Mixed Elements Unity Shield. Even though the last bolt of tribulation lightning had shattered his Mixed Elements Unity Shield, it was like an arrow at the end of its flight. The moment it struck Ling Yun's body, it only turned his Battle Dharma Robes into ashes, but it couldn't cause any harm to him.
Ling Yun had really gained a lot from this Four Nine Minor Tribulation. It could be said that with the help of this real tribulation, Ling Yun's gains in these two and a half hours had already exceeded all of his previous gains.
Ling Yun's only loss was two sets of Battle Dharma Robes that he had painstakingly refined.
Previously, Ye Xingchen had given Ling Yun three sets of supreme-grade Golden Crow Devilish Silk Robes, and Ling Yun had refined them into Battle Dharma Robes. Now that he had lost two sets, he still had one left, which was currently in Ling Yun's Universe Ring.
"Then … then you rest here by yourself. I … I'll wait for you up there!"
Ye Xingchen couldn't stand this awkward situation. She gritted her teeth and was about to rush out of the sea.
"Don't go out. There are enemies coming up there."
Ling Yun immediately reminded Ye Xingchen and stopped him. The range of his divine sense had already exceeded a distance of eight thousand meters. Moreover, Ling Yun's divine sense had been tempered by the tribulation lightning to become extremely condensed. Even in the sea, he could easily detect the situation within a thousand meters around him. They were only seven hundred meters away from the sea, so Ling Yun was naturally able to know the situation on the sea surface like the back of his hand.
Just now, during this short conversation between the two of them, five people suddenly appeared in the sky above their heads. These five people were the five figures that had appeared thirty thousand meters away from the northwest after Ling Yun had been struck by the last bolt of tribulation lightning.
These five people had powerful auras, and their flying speed exceeded two times the speed of sound. A distance of thirty thousand meters was actually only thirty kilometers. From the moment they appeared, it only took them slightly more than half a minute to arrive.
At this moment, they were hovering in the sky above the sea. All of them had solemn expressions on their faces, and they didn't say a word. They had released their divine sense to the extreme, trying to see through the situation of the entire sea below them.
"Are there enemies coming?"
Even though Ye Xingchen had reached the pinnacle of Qi Cultivation Stage Four, she hadn't undergone tribulation yet. Her divine sense still couldn't detect the situation on the sea surface. However, she didn't quite believe Ling Yun's words. She was very suspicious and couldn't help but turn her head to observe Ling Yun's eyes.
"Shameless fellow, you're not lying to me on purpose, are you?"
Ye Xingchen secretly made up her mind. If Ling Yun dared to lie to her, even if she had to put up with her embarrassment, she would give this shameless fellow a good two kicks. Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to vent her anger.
"I'm not lying to you. There are five people coming from above, and their auras are very powerful. They should be a few notches stronger than Long Tianfang, who's at the pinnacle of Qi Cultivation Stage Six …
"According to their auras, three of them should be from the Long Family. As for the other two, I think they should be from Mount Longhu …" Ling Yun spoke frankly with assurance.
Of course, there was no need for him to lie about something like this, so he told Ye Xingchen the truth.
"Long Family and Mount Longhu, then … then what do we do?"
Ye Xingchen saw that Ling Yun was serious and couldn't care less about her shyness anymore. She began to panic. Five enemies, three from the Long Family and two from Mount Longhu. If every one of them was stronger than Long Tianfang, how were they going to deal with them?
"What else can we do? Let's do nothing! "
Ling Yun smiled brightly, revealing his red lips and white teeth. He was lazy and nonchalant as he said, "If they were just alarmed by the lightning tribulation and came over to take a look, then they're lucky. But if they're here to cause trouble for me and take advantage of me, then they're really unlucky …"
Ye Xingchen was flabbergasted!
She asked in shock, "Ling Yun, y-you can beat them now?!"
Ling Yun glared at her. "What are you talking about?! Not to mention the fact that I've already passed the tribulation, I could've beaten them up even before the tribulation.
"But you've just passed the tribulation, and you're at your weakest. Now you've been struck so hard that you can't move …
"I'll be able to move soon …"
Ling Yun grinned. "But I'm indeed a little weak … So, if you're willing to come over and help me massage my shoulders and legs, I might be able to recover quickly …"
"Bullsh * t!"
Ye Xingchen was smart. She knew that she'd been tricked the moment she saw Ling Yun's nonchalant expression. She couldn't help but glare and scold him harshly.
She understood Ling Yun too well now. If Ling Yun had really met a strong enemy that he couldn't beat, he wouldn't be sitting here talking nonsense with her. He would've dragged Ye Xingchen away a long time ago. Or perhaps, he would've let Ye Xingchen drag him away …
"Since the enemy is here, why aren't you putting on your clothes and going out to fight?!"
Ye Xingchen had watched Ling Yun go through the Heavenly Tribulation. The entire process had been far too difficult, and it had been a narrow escape from death. She had been on tenterhooks for Ling Yun, and now that Ling Yun was safe and sound, she couldn't help but want to see him crush his enemies heroically.
"Why are you in such a hurry to put on your clothes?"
Ling Yun retorted directly. Then, he raised his head and straightened his chest. "Don't you think I'm handsome like this?"
"Moreover, when I was going through the tribulation, my clothes were already blown away by the lightning. It's not like you didn't see it …"
Ye Xingchen stomped her feet in anger. Her pretty face was flushed as she gritted her teeth. "Nonsense, you were completely drowned in lightning when you were going through the tribulation. I didn't see anything …"
Ling Yun rolled his eyes. "Tsk, there were a few waves of tribulation lightning. What about the period after each wave ended?"
"It was too far away, I couldn't see it with my divine sense!" Ye Xingchen replied.
"What about the eyes?" Ling Yun asked.
Ye Xingchen suppressed her laughter. "They're too ugly, I can't be bothered to look at them!"
Ling Yun's heart was filled with pride, but his expression was incomparably solemn. "Beauty, the tribulation has just passed. One must be honest …"
"You're still not done with me, aren't you?"
Ye Xingchen was enraged when she saw how Ling Yun was "bullying" her. She turned around and glared at Ling Yun. "Let me tell you, I have a bunch of recording devices on me. If you really want people to see it, I'll record it for you and let all the girls around you see it!" Ye Xingchen was furious when she heard Ling Yun's words.
An absolute trump card!
"I was wrong!"
Ling Yun hurriedly raised his hands in surrender. He knew that Ye Xingchen would do what she said. He immediately got up, took out a set of clothes, and quickly put them on.
"Pfft!"
Ye Xingchen finally managed to turn the tables. Seeing Ling Yun's flustered appearance, she couldn't help but snigger. "Little guy, do you really think I can't handle you?!"
In the sky above the sea, the five people carefully observed the area for a long time. They looked at each other, and then one of them shook his head. "That last bolt of tribulation lightning blasted a deep hole in the seabed. I can't detect the situation inside."
Before this person finished speaking, another person in a loose purple robe spoke up. "It seems that the person who passed the tribulation here just now was undoubtedly Ling Yun. What do you plan to do, Fellow Daoist Long?"
Long Ruoyu immediately looked at the person in the purple robe. His eyes revealed a murderous intent. "Thunderbolt Sage, I think even the two of us would find it difficult to pass that last bolt of tribulation lightning. Therefore, even if Ling Yun is still alive, he must be at his weakest!"
