Why did you provoke her? Even Heaven itself is afraid of her.

Led by the Emperor of the White Tiger Kingdom, Ling Yun arrived at the place where the Emperor's ancestor was in seclusion.

[Boss, something's not right.]

Xiao Heizi reminded him:

Ling Yun frowned. She noticed something was wrong as soon as she entered. Then, without saying a word, Ling Yun used her spiritual power to blast the stone door open.

The stone gate was blasted open, sending rubble flying and raising a cloud of choking dust.

Ling Yun flashed into the stone gate.

The White Tiger Emperor was left with a shocked expression.

Even Yi Xuan looked at her with some surprise.

When the Emperor of the White Tiger Kingdom came to his senses, he and Yi Xuan also entered the stone gate.

What greeted the eye was Ling Yun standing there with a rather indescribable expression on his face.

"Senior Ling?"

Following Ling Yun's gaze, they saw an old man with disheveled hair, holding a roast chicken in one hand and a wine pot in the other.

Seemingly shocked by Ling Yun's sudden intrusion, she froze on the spot, her eyes meeting Ling Yun's.

"Ancestor?!"

The emperor of the White Tiger Kingdom stared wide-eyed in astonishment, completely lacking the solemnity befitting a ruler.

He probably never imagined in his life that his ancestor, who should have been in seclusion, would be in such a state.

This...this is unbelievable.

What happened to the plan to go into seclusion and break through to the Emperor Realm?

Their descendants have carefully guarded that ancient bamboo lotus for generations, waiting for their ancestor to emerge from seclusion.

And yet you're here, leisurely enjoying roast chicken!

By the way, where did this chicken come from?

The Emperor of the White Tiger Kingdom was feeling extremely frustrated, aggrieved, and confused.

He stared intently at his ancestor, his lips trembling slightly, whether from anger or anger, it was unclear.

It took a long time to find my voice.

"Ancestor, this..."

"Ahem... Well, I was cultivating peacefully when a chicken suddenly appeared out of nowhere. Since I don't have a place to raise chickens here, and they've all starved to death, it's better to let it suffer a painful death than to let it die a miserable death."

Before the Emperor of the White Tiger Kingdom could finish speaking, he was interrupted by his own ancestor.

He was just making things up.

The Emperor of the White Tiger Kingdom twitched at the corner of his mouth upon hearing this, choking on his own words with this reason.

Do you want to listen to what you are saying?

You should take a good look at where you are.

This is the royal retreat, heavily fortified outside, so that even birds cannot cross it. Where would a pheasant come from?

Let alone a pheasant, even a fly would have a hard time getting in, right?

His ability to lie without batting an eye and blatantly lie is truly unparalleled.

The Emperor of the White Tiger Kingdom felt deeply aggrieved. He took a deep breath to calm himself down.

"Grandmother, is it alright for you to fool your grandson like this?"

Even the emperor's ancestors were quite frustrated.

Can he say it was really an accident?

He's always been a glutton.

He had just woken up from his cultivation and remembered that there was a wild pheasant he had caught years ago in his spatial bag before he went into seclusion, which is why the scene just now happened.

But before he could even take a bite, the door was blasted open, leaving him with nothing but dust instead of meat.

Thinking of this, he looked at Ling Yun with a mournful expression.

This little girl looks so young, how come she's so violent?

Looking down at the roast chicken in his hand, he saw that it was now covered in dust.

This is pure torture for someone who loves to eat.

Ling Yun also had a complicated situation to explain.

So the strange thing she noticed just now was just because the old man was roasting chicken in his secluded cultivation room?

It seems that next time we encounter something like this, it's best to investigate the situation before taking any action.

This time they were just craving something sweet, but what if next time they have OCD and take a bath right there?

The scene is too beautiful to look at anymore.

"Little girl! You're too reckless. You need to change that." You've ruined my roast chicken!

He dared not say the last sentence, lest his younger relative look like he was about to cry again.

Ling Yun raised an eyebrow.

Little girl?

She had no idea how long she had lived, and had always been called "ancestor" or "senior," but suddenly an old man was calling her "little girl."

This must be the first time she's been addressed like this since she came to this world.

This feeling is somewhat subtle.

but......

"There is something wrong with your body."

Ling Yun suddenly spoke, and everyone was taken aback.

Even the old man himself was caught off guard.

It took him a long time to come to his senses and say:

"I have a health problem?" How come I didn't know?

"Your spiritual energy is dissipating, what? Don't you feel it?"

"The spiritual energy dissipated?"

The emperor of the White Tiger Kingdom suddenly looked at his ancestor.

The old man was also startled.

He did not feel any discomfort whatsoever.

However, after being reminded by Ling Yun, he seemed to realize something, his expression changed slightly, and then he regulated the spiritual energy in his body. Upon seeing this, his expression changed drastically.

The spiritual energy within him has indeed weakened considerably.

how can that be!

He suddenly looked at Ling Yun.

"Who are you? How did you find out?"

Even he himself hadn't realized his own problem, so how did she find out?

Ling Yun remained calm.

Seeing his ancestor in such a state, the Emperor of the White Tiger Kingdom understood that what Ling Yun said was true; his ancestor's health was indeed in trouble.

"Senior Ling, do you have any way to help my ancestor?"

The emperor of the White Tiger Kingdom, his face full of worry, asked anxiously.

"Based on your cultivation speed and methods, you should still be in seclusion, and you will never be able to advance to the Emperor Realm in this lifetime, even with the help of the Ten Thousand Year Bamboo Lotus."

Upon hearing this, the old man's face darkened.

No wonder, no wonder he woke up early before reaching the Emperor Realm.

I originally thought it was just that I had reached a bottleneck in my cultivation and could no longer continue.

Now they're telling him there's a problem with his cultivation.

“Senior Ling, you are very knowledgeable. You must have a way to solve this problem, right? As long as you help our ancestor, I am willing to give you the Ten Thousand Year Bamboo Lotus with both hands.”

The emperor of the White Tiger Kingdom was in a panic.

The old ancestor looked at Ling Yun and his grandson with some doubt.

Logically speaking, this little girl should look much younger than her own grandson.

Why is my grandson so respectful to this little girl?

He then took a closer look at Ling Yun, but he couldn't see anything about him.

How strange!

How could he not see through it?

"You'd better not use your spiritual power right now, otherwise it will only make your spiritual energy dissipate faster."

Sensing the old man's probing, Ling Yun spoke up to stop him.

"Remember what you said. I'll solve your problem of calling me 'Ancestor,' and you give me the Ten Thousand Year Bamboo Lotus."

"Senior Ling, rest assured, I, Tian Chenghu, swear to the heavens that after Senior Ling helps my ancestor, I will definitely offer the Ten Thousand Year Bamboo Lotus with both hands. Even in the end... I am willing to give the Ten Thousand Year Bamboo Forest to Senior Ling."

As soon as he finished speaking, a law of heaven and earth descended upon the White Tiger Kingdom's emperor and Ling Yun.
