Ling Yun and Miao Xiao Miao returned to Miao Village in no time.
It was almost midnight. Xue Zhengqi and Miao Fenghuang didn't rest, but they weren't too worried about Miao Xiao Miao's tribulation.
With Ling Yun protecting Miao Xiao Miao, what did they have to worry about?
Miracle Doctor Xue was sitting at the stone table in the courtyard. Suddenly, Ling Yun and Miao Xiao Miao appeared in front of him. He stood up with a smile and was about to speak.
"Whoosh!"
Miao Fenghuang flew down from the roof and stood in front of Miracle Doctor Xue. She asked excitedly, "How was it? How many realms did Xiao Miao break through? What's her realm now? "
Even though they were not worried, it was unavoidable for the two elders to be anxious ever since Ling Yun and Miao Fenghuang left the Miao Village in the afternoon.
Miao Fenghuang didn't even have the mood to cook dinner. When night fell, she flew up to the roof and looked around, trying to find the place where Miao Xiaomiao was undergoing her tribulation.
In Miao Fenghuang's heart, not only was Miao Xiao Miao her granddaughter, but she was also the next Holy Maiden of Miao Jiang whom she had nurtured with all her heart and soul. At such a crucial moment, it was impossible for her to remain indifferent.
Miao Xiao Miao's breakthrough didn't cause much of a commotion until her tribulation. The green tribulation clouds covered the peak and turned into a giant tree. Ordinary people in Miaojiang might not be able to see such a phenomenon, but with Miracle Doctor Xue and his wife's current realm, they could see, hear, and even feel it.
When the Ancient Wood Spirit appeared, Miao Fenghuang couldn't help but fly over. However, Miracle Doctor Xue tried to convince her again and again that it would be useless. Instead, it might affect Miao Xiaomiao's tribulation. Only then did she reluctantly endure it.
Now that Miao Xiao Miao had returned safely, she was naturally eager to know the results.
Ling Yun could feel Miao Fenghuang's eagerness but smiled without saying anything.
"Grandma, I broke through three realms in a row. I'm now at the pinnacle of Qi Cultivation Stage Six."
Miao Xiao Miao smiled. She was just telling the truth.
"Three realms in a row? Th-this is really … "Miao Fenghuang's eyes widened. She clenched her fists subconsciously, unable to speak.
"Good! Good! Alright! " Miracle Doctor Xue was elated to hear that. He nodded his head repeatedly and said 'good' thrice before smiling at Lingyun. "Yun Er, thank you for your hard work. Let's sit down and talk."
Ling Yun nodded with a smile and sat down. The matter in Miaojiang had been settled, and he still had to travel through the night. However, before he left, there was indeed something that he had to clarify.
"Xiao Miao, quickly tell me, what's going on with that giant tree? Why did it disappear later? "
Miao Fenghuang was momentarily stunned, but she still could not bear to sit down. She held onto Miao Xiao Miao's shoulders tightly and asked fervently.
"Grandma, don't rush. Let me tell you slowly …"
"A bystander can see more clearly. Let me explain. Grandma Miao, please take a seat. "
Ling Yun quickly took over the conversation and nodded at Miao Fenghuang to sit down.
On the way back to the Miao Village, Ling Yun had already sent a voice transmission to Miao Xiao Miao. She could tell the two old men about the entire process of breaking through to the Heavenly Tribulation, but she did not mention a single word about the Ancient Wood Spirit.
"Yes!" Miao Fenghuang was slightly taken aback. She quickly released her hands and sat down.
Miao Xiao Miao naturally smiled and sat down as well.
"After we left the village, we went straight to the valley where the Shichiyou Herb grew everywhere …"
Ling Yun slowly explained the entire process of breaking through to the Heavenly Tribulation. However, it was concise and comprehensive. He only took a few minutes to finish the whole process. Finally, he explained, "As for that giant tree, it was formed by the Heavenly Tribulation Cloud. After Xiao Miao successfully passed through the Heavenly Tribulation, it naturally disappeared."
"So that's how it is …" Miao Fenghuang nodded in realization after listening to the story. However, she still felt that Ling Yun's story was too simple and casual.
Hundreds of kilometers away, the giant tree formed by the peak of the mountain covered the entire mountain. What kind of mystical thing was that?
Ling Yun just skimmed over it? Not even a word of comment?
Miao Fenghuang's face was full of doubt. She asked naturally, "But why did the Heavenly Tribulation Cloud turn into the shape of a giant tree? That's unheard of … "
"It's just a Thousand Tribulations."
Ling Yun was already prepared. He smiled and said, "I've said it before. Xiao Miao has a wood attribute and has been cultivating the Supreme Green Thearch Art. That's why the Heavenly Tribulation Cloud changed so mysteriously."
"With my current realm and foresight, I can only understand it to this extent for now." Ling Yun saw that Miao Fenghuang wanted to get to the bottom of the matter. He immediately added, "In short, such a Heavenly Tribulation will be very beneficial to Xiao Miao's future cultivation."
This was equivalent to a closed coffin. Of course, even though he hid some things, what he said was the truth.
"Good, good, good!"
Miao Fenghuang was extraordinarily excited about Miao Xiao Miao's success, but Miracle Doctor Xue was already certain about this matter. He wasn't worried at all. He only needed to know the final result.
Based on his understanding of Ling Yun, he had already guessed that Ling Yun was hiding something from him. However, he didn't expose him. He simply nodded and interrupted Miao Fenghuang's questions.
"Since Xiao Miao successfully passed the Heavenly Tribulation unscathed, it's a joyous occasion for our family. As for the process and the details that are difficult to understand, there's no need to get to the bottom of it."
Miracle Doctor Xue's words were, of course, meant for Miao Fenghuang. He was afraid that she would harp on this matter and create a knot in Ling Yun's heart.
Obviously, the other three people at the table could see that Miao Fenghuang's attitude was too eager.
"Alright, since even Master can't explain it, it seems like no one can."
Miao Fenghuang could only accept it helplessly. Her expression was one of regret.
However, she didn't expect Ling Yun to have seen her enthusiasm and the change in the way she addressed Ling Yun.
"Yun Er, Xiao Miao, the two of you went out in the afternoon. You must be hungry now, right?"
Miracle Doctor Xue suddenly asked with concern.
Ling Yun was delighted.
"I won't be eating." Ling Yun smiled and rejected Miracle Doctor Xue's kind intentions. "I'm here with Xiao Miao mainly to tell you about Xiao Miao's Heavenly Tribulation so that you won't worry."
He paused for a moment before saying his plan. "I'm leaving Miao Village tonight for Kunlun Mountain."
"Kunlun Mountain?"
The three of them were caught off guard when they heard Ling Yun say that he was leaving that night.
Especially Miao Xiaomiao. Her joy was as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over her head.
After a moment of shock, she threw her long hair and turned her head to the side.
Ling Yun also knew that his words were too abrupt. He didn't plan ahead, so he pretended not to see Miao Xiaomiao's angry action.
However, Miracle Doctor Xue couldn't pretend not to see it. He felt sorry for his granddaughter. After hesitating for a moment, he suddenly had a plan. He asked Ling Yun, "Xiao Miao has just passed the Heavenly Tribulation, so her realm isn't stable yet. Can you stay here for a day or two to help her stabilize her realm?"
Ling Yun shook his head slowly. "There's no need for that. Xiao Miao's realm is already very stable. I've already told her everything that needs to be said. She just needs to focus on cultivating the Supreme Green Emperor Technique."
If Miao Xiao Miao was going through her tribulation normally, with Ling Yun's cautiousness, he would really stay for an extra day to guide Miao Xiao Miao's future cultivation in detail. But now, with the Ancient Wood Spirit in her sea of consciousness, why would Ling Yun waste his breath?
Miao Xiaomiao already had her own Great Dao.
"Is there an urgent matter for you to go to Kunlun Mountain?"
Miracle Doctor Xue saw Ling Yun's firm attitude and knew that he couldn't keep him any longer.
"It's very urgent."
Ling Yun nodded. How could he not be anxious when it concerned Ning Lingyu? However, this was his own matter, and only he could resolve it. Thus, he didn't explain further.
"But Master, if you leave, what about Miaojiang?"
Miao Fenghuang asked hurriedly. As she spoke, she couldn't help but look in the direction of the Chiyou Temple in the village.
"I was about to hand over this matter."
This was what Ling Yun had been waiting for. He stood up slowly with a solemn expression.
"First, from now on, all the matters of Miaojiang that you are in charge of will be handed over to Xiao Miao to handle. Especially important matters such as the cultivation of the Three Miaos, such as the sacrificial ceremony, you must listen to Xiao Miao's opinion."
"Second, before I return to Miaojiang and this village, all the Miaos in the Hundred Thousand Mountains of Miaojiang must stop all sacrificial activities!"
Ling Yun's gaze was clear as he looked straight into Miao Fenghuang's eyes. It was as if he wanted to see through her heart. His expression was extremely serious, and his tone was firm and decisive.
"Master, this …"
Miao Fenghuang's body froze like a wooden statue when she heard this. Her expression changed drastically, and it was obvious that she couldn't accept this.
"I only have these two conditions, and I know that this will put Grandma Miao in a difficult position."
Since he had already said it, Ling Yun's expression relaxed, and the corners of his mouth lifted. "If Grandma Miao is willing to listen, then I will continue to bear the identity of the Three Miaos Leader that you gave me …"
The smile on Ling Yun's face widened. "If you can't accept it, then it's easy. From now on, Miaojiang will still be under your control. Just pretend that I was never here."
"This!"
Miao Fenghuang's heart trembled, and her pretty face instantly turned pale.
"Master, please understand, I … am willing to accept!"
Miao Fenghuang finally chose to accept Ling Yun's words. "But Xiao Miao isn't even nineteen yet, and she still needs to focus on cultivation. If we let her handle Miaojiang's affairs now, I'm afraid …"
"I just turned eighteen …" Ling Yun interrupted with a smile. He turned his head to look at Miao Xiao Miao, who was equally shocked, and said, "Grandma Miao, it's not that I want to talk too much, but you and Grandpa Xue have just gotten married. You are a match made in heaven, and you should focus on cultivation together …"
"What nonsense are you spouting!" Miao Xiao Miao decisively gave Ling Yun a flying kick.
"Cough cough …"
Ling Yun didn't dodge, and his body leaned forward from the kick. He smiled awkwardly and took the opportunity to give Miracle Doctor Xue a look.
Miracle Doctor Xue was unperturbed, and he blinked his eyes without batting an eyelid. He accepted Ling Yun's huge favor.
Ling Yun didn't really care who was in charge of the Hundred Thousand Mountains of Miaojiang. However, if he allowed Miao Fenghuang to continue being so fanatical, Miracle Doctor Xue's days would be over.
As Ling Yun stood up, he lifted his hand and wiped it across the table.
A few bottles of pills of various sizes instantly appeared on the stone table.
"I'm leaving."
Without waiting for the three of them to react, his figure disappeared on the spot. He used his Heavenly Feet and took a step towards the northwest. He was already dozens of miles away from the Miao Village.
"Miao Xiao Miao, you owe me a kick. The next time we meet, I'll return it double!"
