Chapter 108: Advancing to Titled Rank, Giving Xiao Wu Hope

Qing Wu was clear about her own injuries; the damage to her body was already irreversible, and in her current situation, there was no way to turn things around.

"No, Mother, don't do this!" Xiao Wu cried.

Lingxu said, "Sigh... do you have any other requests?"

In truth, Lingxu did not consider himself a fool, and taking them away was actually just for this very moment.

Even if Qing Wu had not taken the initiative, Lingxu would still have wanted their Spirit Rings.

But since Qing Wu was offering herself as a sacrifice, the situation was a different matter entirely.

Hearing Lingxu agree, Qing Wu looked relieved and said, "Just help me take care of Xiao Wu; you must ensure she grows up safely."

Lingxu said, "Rest assured, I will. As long as I am here, I guarantee Xiao Wu will not come to any harm. I will take her back to my Shengdi to cultivate, and I will even have the four hundred-thousand-year Spirit Beasts of the Shengdi protect her."

"Xiao Wu is a hundred-thousand-year Spirit Beast; after becoming human, she will also awaken Innate Full Spirit Power, and I will cultivate her well."

"With that, I can rest easy."

"Lingxu, give me some time to say goodbye to Xiao Wu."

Qing Wu looked at Xiao Wu again and said, "Xiao Wu, Mother cannot go on. Becoming Lingxu's Spirit Ring is my only choice. Remember, if you do not have the strength, do not seek revenge for me. Cultivate well and listen to Lingxu."

She did not know why, but she felt that what Lingxu said before her was worth trusting.

"Mother, I don't want you to go!" Xiao Wu cried, her tears already soaking her clothes.

"Silly girl!" Qing Wu stroked Xiao Wu's head.

"Xiao Wu, I can no longer comb your hair. Keep this, and remember to take good care of yourself. Do not be too willful when you enter the human world to cultivate, and listen to Lingxu."

As soon as she finished speaking, light began to flicker on Qing Wu's body.

Then, this light began to enter Lingxu's body.

And a wooden comb was left in Qing Wu's hand.

Qing Wu's sacrifice caused Xiao Wu to break down.

Lingxu also stood tall in the air, accepting Qing Wu's sacrifice.

Only during this process did Lingxu discover that there were only seven days left until the Angel Third Trial.

This time was truly too short.

After all, absorbing a hundred-thousand-year Spirit Ring previously required a very long time.

Fortunately, this absorption of a Spirit Ring was different from before; this was the active sacrifice of a hundred-thousand-year Spirit Beast.

Lingxu's absorption ability was also extremely fast.

Therefore, by the sixth day, Lingxu had already completed the absorption, but he had only absorbed the Spirit Ring; Lingxu had not yet absorbed the soul bone.

This was a hundred-thousand-year left leg bone.

Lingxu stored it away into the System Space.

At this moment, when Lingxu landed, he saw Xiao Wu lying weakly on the ground.

Even though she was previously a hundred-thousand-year Spirit Beast, after transforming, she was now just a child of over three years old. Having experienced so much in these few days, it was normal for her to be injured.

Lingxu thought to himself, "Fortune plays tricks on people. In this life, you did not follow Tang San, so I will let you enter my Lingxue Sacred Land, and since I promised your mother, I will naturally take care of you."

Lingxu's soul power turned into a warm current, causing Xiao Wu to wake up.

"Mother!"

After waking up, Xiao Wu shouted for her mother loudly.

But looking at Lingxu, Xiao Wu felt carefully and said, "Mother has already merged into your body!"

"Eat these things, I have a surprise for you," Lingxu said.

He took out some water and food.

Xiao Wu had not eaten her fill for a long time, so she immediately began to wolf it down.

After a while, having finished the water and food Lingxu gave her, she said, "Big Brother, I'm finished."

Lingxu said, "Since you have entered my Lingxue Sacred Land, just call me Brother Lingxu, or call me Holy Master."

Originally, Lingxu wanted Xiao Wu to address him directly, but Lingxu felt that Xiao Wu was still worth cultivating. At the very least, starting from now, it was still possible; she had not followed the old path of the original work, and taking in a little sister was acceptable.

"Big Brother, you said you wanted to give me a surprise, what is it!" Xiao Wu said.

After speaking, a rabbit appeared in Lingxu's hand.

Whether it was an accident or because Lingxu had the plot of Xiao Wu's sacrifice from the original work in his mind, the final body of Qing Wu had turned into a rabbit.

"This is?" Xiao Wu asked with some surprise; this rabbit gave her a very familiar feeling, very intimate.

Lingxu said, "This is what your mother has transformed into!"

"But she does not have a complete soul, or rather, she only has a sliver of lingering thought from your mother's soul."

"Mother!" Xiao Wu immediately hugged the rabbit, and the rabbit was also very friendly toward Xiao Wu.

"That's great, Mother, you haven't died yet," Xiao Wu said.

"Brother Lingxu, can Mother be resurrected?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Lingxu took out the soul bone of Xiao Wu's mother and said, "This is your mother's soul bone; I have not absorbed it yet."

"In this world, it is not that there is no hope of resurrecting your mother, but the chance is very slim," Lingxu said.

Xiao Wu saw hope, wiped away her tears, and said, "Brother Lingxu, what must I do?"

Lingxu said with a serious face, "Reach Level 100 in soul power!"

"Level 100?" Although Xiao Wu had not yet begun to cultivate, she knew the difficulty of reaching Level 100.

"I will work hard."

Lingxu nodded, "Cultivate well. I promised your mother I would take care of you. I will not absorb this soul bone for now; it might also be the key to resurrecting your mother."

Xiao Wu said, "Thank you. I will cultivate well, and in the future, I will do as Mother requested and listen to you in everything."

In truth, this was also hope that Lingxu had deliberately left for Xiao Wu.

As for this soul bone, it did not matter whether Lingxu absorbed it or not; she was not lacking this one soul bone right now.

She felt her own soul power for a moment.

The effect brought about by the voluntary sacrifice was truly excellent, but Lingxu had not absorbed the soul bone, so Lingxu's soul power remained at Level 93.

If she were to absorb the soul bone, according to Lingxu's guess, she would have a chance to reach Level 94.

However, being able to reach Level 93 was already very good.

She checked the time; there were still five hours left until the God Trial.

"Xiao Wu, I have urgent business to attend to and must head back, so I need you to enter that space again," Lingxu said.

"En!" Xiao Wu nodded while holding Qing Wu, who had transformed into a rabbit.

Golden soul power flickered, and then Xiao Wu entered Lingxu's System Space once again.

Lingxu then immediately summoned her martial soul, unleashed her second soul skill, and flew at the fastest possible speed.

One hour later, Wuhun City, beneath the Angel Temple.

There were only five hours left for Qian Renxue's trial!

"Didn't Brother Lingxu say he would be back three days before the trial? Why has he been gone so long? Nothing bad happened, right?" Qian Renxue looked at Qian Daoliu and asked.

Qian Daoliu said, "Ling should be fine, Xue'er, don't worry."

"Grandfather, what would happen if Brother Lingxu missed the God Trial?" Qian Renxue asked again.

"As for that, to be honest, even I am not sure! It has never happened in the history of the Angel God Trial!"

In truth, Qian Daoliu was still somewhat worried, but there was no use in worrying; the team led by Bibi Dong had returned from the Star Dou Great Forest in the last few days having suffered heavy losses, and he did not know if it had anything to do with Lingxu.

Just as Qian Renxue and Qian Daoliu were worrying, a creaking sound rang out.

The great doors slowly opened, and Lingxu's figure appeared before the two of them!

"Xue'er, Qian Yeye, I'm sorry for making you worry!"
