Chapter 3846: Purpose of the Meeting
"Big brother, how did you meet sister?" Ye Ling asked Ye Liuyun at that moment.
But the girl rushed ahead: "When he arrived in the Taixu World, he woke me from my sleep. I have no idea what madness he's been in lately, slashing the void wall barrier with a knife every day. If I hadn't shown up, I'd have been driven crazy by him!"
Ye Ling smiled at the words and told Ye Liuyun: "Big brother, please stop cutting the void wall barrier from now on, so sister won't have to repair it!"
Clearly, Ye Ling had already recognized the girl's identity and also knew her abilities.
Ye Liuyun still wore a bewildered expression. But thinking that the girl said this place was her home, his cutting the void wall barrier was like cutting the girl's house wall, which would naturally upset her, so he immediately agreed.
"Who exactly is this girl?" Ye Liuyun asked Ye Ling via Transmission Voice, secretly.
Ye Ling widened his eyes at him, as if asking, "You really don't know? Then how did we end up sitting together to grill meat?"
"Don't tell him; let that fool guess on his own!" the girl replied with a mischievous grin, warning Ye Ling.
Ye Ling chuckled, covered his mouth and shook his head, refusing to tell Ye Liuyun.
"That girl, betraying so quickly!" Ye Liuyun sighed helplessly, fell silent, and continued to focus on grilling.
However, he suddenly recalled the girl's words and asked her: "You said that as soon as I arrived in the Taixu World, I woke you up? What does that mean?"
The girl didn't refuse to answer, but spoke vaguely: "You brought the Underworld into the Taixu World! Otherwise how could I say you have so many cheating things on you! Your luck is truly defying the heavens; otherwise you wouldn't have met me!"
After her single reply, Ye Liuyun had to ponder it in his mind for a long time.
"I brought the Underworld, and that woke her up? What does she have to do with the Underworld? She even knows my connection to the Underworld? Why does my good luck let me meet her?"
Ye Liuyun's mind was full of questions, yet the girl wouldn't answer properly, forcing him to guess.
So his expression was extremely gloomy at that moment. The girl seemed delighted to see his dejected look, snickering on the side.
"Big brother came from the Mortal Realm, so he's encountered fewer things…" Ye Ling tried to explain to Ye Liuyun.
"If it weren't for his nonsense, I wouldn't have met him so early! He shouldn't have known so much so soon!" the girl nonchalantly interrupted Ye Ling.
Hearing that, Ye Liuyun stopped asking; he felt the more he asked, the more confused he became, so staying silent was better. The girl had saved Ye Ling today, for which he was very grateful—consider it a gain.
As for the girl, he decided to treat her as the deity managing this place.
The girl, seeing that Ye Liuyun hadn't asked any questions for a while, became somewhat curious.
"Why aren't you asking?"
"…You still wouldn't tell me even if I asked!" Ye Liuyun was both exasperated and amused.
"Then why don't you ask what I'm looking for you?" the girl asked, blinking.
"Isn't it about the void wall barrier cutting?" Ye Liuyun retorted.
"Is that enough for me to seek you out? If it were someone else, I'd strike them down with a single heavenly thunder!" the girl said brazenly.
Ye Liuyun thought, "Being struck down by thunder? That really seems unlikely!"
Yet the girl's fingertip produced a nine‑colored divine thunder.
Ye Liuyun was again shocked; the terrifying power contained in that thunder tribulation far surpassed his five‑colored thunder spirit!
"She can really kill me? What level of thunder tribulation is that, being nine‑colored?" he said fearfully, staring at the nine‑colored divine thunder.
The girl, knowing his question, said directly: "This is a nine‑colored thunder tribulation. When you break through the Hédào Jìngjiè, it will strike you, so be mentally prepared!"
After threatening Ye Liuyun, she wore a smug grin.
Ye Liuyun frowned, carefully sensing the power within the thunder tribulation, realizing his current gap was still huge! Yet he possessed War God armor, and his strength would grow; when he reaches the Hédào Jìngjiè, this thunder tribulation might not affect him either.
Just as he thought that, the girl seemed to read his mind; the thunder tribulation in her hand intensified again, its oppressive power forcing Ye Liuyun to step back.
With Ye Liuyun's current strength, he couldn't gauge how strong the thunder tribulation was. Even with War God armor, he certainly couldn't block a single strike of it.
The girl smiled proudly: "This is the thunder tribulation you must face when leaving this world. Pass this hurdle, and you can go to the Divine Realm!"
After speaking, the girl retracted the thunder tribulation.
"Divine Realm?" Ye Liuyun noted the keyword. Since the girl didn't elaborate, he stopped asking.
He only asked the girl: "Why… does it strike me? Do everyone have to undergo the same thunder tribulation?"
"It's the same for all. But I can ease it a bit. As per the old rule, you need to do me a favor; let's make an exchange, okay?" the girl said.
"Tell me what you want!" Ye Liuyun replied without agreeing outright.
The girl being so powerful and needing his help meant it couldn't be a simple matter. He feared he might not be able to fulfill it if he agreed.
The girl said more seriously: "In the future, the Taixu World will face a great calamity, and most of this world will be destroyed.
You, along with four other people, are the key to that calamity. It's not yet clear whose actions will trigger it, but it's already fated."
"Do you need me to help handle that calamity when the time comes?" Ye Liuyun asked.
In fact, the girl had saved Ye Ling; even without her saying so, Ye Liuyun would certainly agree later. Moreover, if this world might be destroyed, he has many territories, so he'd definitely act then.
The girl nodded: "Regarding this calamity, you may be a crucial variable, so I need you to set out now, head northwest until you meet an acquaintance.
As for what will happen on the road, how you'll meet that person, I don't know; just do whatever you think you should. As long as you go, you'll naturally meet them!
I'm just waking up now, many things are still uncertain, but I'll know by then."
"So I can help you avoid that calamity?" Ye Liuyun asked.
"No." the girl said resolutely.
"…Then why should I go?" Ye Liuyun retorted.
"That cataclysm is unavoidable, but you can help me eliminate two other key figures in advance. Those two will amplify the calamity's intensity later!" the girl replied.
