Chapter 242 - 249: Going to Have Some Fun Again!
Translator: 549690339
Upon hearing that Yang Zhen intended to challenge the Highest Heavenly
Destiny, everyone was stunned.
Scoundrel Cat, with a hesitant face, asked, “Kid, aren’t you going to wait?”
Yang Zhen shookhis head and said, “No need to wait. I should go in immediately and look for the little girl. The Highest Heavenly Destiny seems interesting, but I don’t know if there is only one route to take once I’m in there!”
At that moment, the Hongluan Spiritual Girl slowly approached and said to Yang Zhen, “Traveler, the Highest Heavenly Destiny doesn’t have only one path to Spirit Peak.”
“Oh?” Yang Zhen was taken aback, asking, “Do you know the method, Miss?” Upon hearing Yang Zhen’s peculiar designation again, a smile flitted across the Hongluan Spiritual Girl’s face. She nodded, stating, “Normally so. It’s a divine path. But this year could be different. The more trials seekers like Flower Spirit Girl and Lin Tianli endure in the Highest Heavenly Destiny, especially those involving the Heavenly Might Waterfall, the higher the celestial path they might be able to enter.”
Yang Zhen looked at the Hongluan Spiritual Girl skeptically, asking candidly, “So you’re saying you’re not sure if it works that way?
The Hongluan Spiritual Girl paused, then nodded and replied, “Exactly.
However, I’m confident that I am correct!
Just how confident was she?
Hearing these words, doubt began to creep back into Yang Zhen’s mind. Damn, it wasn’t out of fear. Nobody in the company even knew what was going on – how does one enter the Highest Heavenly Destiny?
Could they possibly be rushing around like headless flies?
However, considering that the little lady herself had rushed in, there seemed to be no reason for Yang Zhen to hesitate. He was about to turn away when he suddenly heard a crisp voice: “Hey, what’s your name?’
Yang Zhen was startled, shared his name, and then asked, “What’s up?” Xiu’er’s eyes darted about; upon hearing Yang Zhen’s name, her large, mesmerizing eyes narrowed into crescents, “So you’re Yang Zhen. Listen, Hongluan Sister has just been cautious in her assumptions. Actually, it’s more or less confirmed now. There were other ways to enter the Highest Heavenly Destiny in the past, we just couldn’t use them.
“Couldn’t use them?” Yang Zhen was taken aback and asked, “Why not?” Xiu’er frowned and glared at him, “Why are you so slow? It means there were restrictions, duh! There’s a path paved in gold with countless inscriptions that look just like those on Spirit Peak, everyone wants to walk it, but nobody ever succeeds… Oh never mind, why am I even explaining this to you!
Upon saying this, Xiu’er glanced at Yang Zhen’s confused expression, turned to Hongluan Spiritual Girl, and pouted, “Hongluan Sister, I take back what I said. Yang Zhen is an absolute dolt, he probably couldn’t even withstand a single Heavenly Might Waterfall trial!
Yang Zhen was enraged and pointed at Xiu’er, “Young lady, didn’t your elders ever tell you not to judge a book by its cover?”
Xiu’er paused, questioning, “No, what does it mean?
Yang Zhen was startled. Looking at Xiu’er’s bewildered spinning eyes, he instantly understood. Damn, such a saying doesn’t exist in this world. However, with Xiu’er’s intelligence, she would instantly perceive its meaning.
This little girl was definitely pretending. Just as expected, cute girls like her are all liars. These so-called best of the best are also just as crafty as Yang Zhen assumed.
Yang Zhen playfully messed up Xiu’er’s hair, grinning menacingly, “Little girl, open your eyes wide and don’t blink. I’ll show you what it means not to judge a book by its cover, as well as not to underestimate the depths of the sea!” Xiu’er yelled in surprise and froze. She apparently didn’t anticipate that Yang Zhen would be so audacious as to place his large hand on her head and tousle her hair. She stomped her feet in rage, turning to the Hongluan Spiritual Girl and complaining, “Hongluan Sister, I want to give this jerk a lesson!” “Don’t judge a book by its cover; don’t underestimate the depths of the sea…” The Hongluan Spiritual Girl murmured, her eyes filled with curiosity as she stared at Yang Zhen’s receding figure.
“Hey, Hongluan Sister, Hongluan?” Seeing the Hongluan Spiritual Girl daydreaming, Xiu’er playfully jumped in front of her, pointing at Yang Zhen’s figure and declaring, “You like him!”
Wham!
Upon hearing this, everyone was astounded. They looked at Xiu’er in disbelief, not expecting such words from her.
The Hongluan Spiritual Girl faltered, then shook her head and laughed, ”Little girl, stop saying nonsense, or you might damage someone’s reputation!” As she was speaking, a mischievous light flashed in Hongluan Spiritual Girl’s eyes. She reached out and tousled the hair that the little girl Xiu’er meticulously arranged.
“Ahhhh…” Xiu’er swung her arms in frustration and pouted at the Hongluan Spiritual Girl, “You say you don’t fancy him, but why on earth did you copy that detestable guy?”
Hongluan Spiritual Girl chuckled, “I just thought it would be a bit…interesting!”
“You… you’re bullying Xiu’er!”
Who could have imagined that these astonishingly beautiful girls were powerful practitioners at the Divine Travel Realm, and Xiu’er was even younger than Yang Zhen?
Young Master Fen stared gloomily at Yang Zhen’s retreating figure, then turned to the Hongluan Spiritual Girl with an incredulous look. He was completely dumbfounded.
Hongluan Spiritual Girl was typically stern and reserved. Over many years, Young Master Fen and others had rarely seen her smile. But today, in just half a day, her coy expressions had surfaced multiple times. Even more astonishing, she ruffled Xiu’er’s hair like an ordinary youth.
What baffled Young Master Fen even more was when Hongluan Spiritual Girl actually uttered the words “I think it’s interesting.”
This was the first time Hongluan Spiritual Girl ever expressed interest in anything outside of cultivation.
While everyone was wide-eyed in disbelief, Yang Zhen stepped boldly into the supreme trial of fate.
Hongluan Spiritual Girl and Xiu’er looked at him simultaneously, just as surprised.
Young Master Fen came to his senses, casting an uneasy glance at Yang Zhen. A Void Cultivation stage practitioner who dared to boastfully attempt the supreme trial of fate was not unheard of, but…all had failed! No one at the Void Cultivation stage had ever been able to successfully complete the supreme trial of fate, and this trial was even more extraordinary than anything in the past.
No matter how much attention Yang Zhen, a Void Cultivation stage practitioner, had drawn to himself, once he failed, he would never be given a second glance. Even Hongluan Spiritual Girl would ignore him.
No one on the Spirit Road paid attention to the failures!
Suddenly, a voice in the crowd exclaimed, “Quick, look!
Young Master Fen’s expression tightened as he immediately turned his gaze to Yang Zhen.
Within the supreme trial of fate, Yang Zhen was carefree, even stretching and kicking his legs around.
“This isn’t that big of a deal!”
When everyone heard Yang Zhen’s cheeky words, they were taken aback.
Not a big deal?
According to Yang Zhen’s current expression, it wasn’t indeed, but…how could that be possible?
Even Flower Spirit Girl and Lin Tianli took on stern expressions and felt a heavy burden upon entering the trial. But Yang Zhen strode in and seemed unaffected by the intense pressure.
Everyone stared at Yang Zhen with a baffled expression on their faces, and Hongluan Spiritual Girl and Xiu’er’s eyes also widened.
The next moment, Yang Zhen did something quite ridiculous. It seemed like he felt the pressure was too light, so he stuck out his tongue and licked the terrifying True Essence energy that was gathering around him!
Everyone who saw this shivered simultaneously.
The naughty cat’s eyes brightened, and it snickered a low laugh to itself,”Damn, this guy is up to his antics again!”
