Chapter 125: Tu Wan is captured, seeks help from Jiang Xun
Boom!
Following Chen Mo's complete silence came a peal of thunder, along with the Supreme Position shifting onto Yin Ningyu.
"The Heavenly Tribulation is here," Zhong Lingqing said, looking up at the sky.
"Take this Huiyuan Pill, and this one too, a Soul Returning Pill. You can transcend the tribulation with confidence; you won't die."
Jiang Xun took out two medicinal pills and placed them in Yin Ningyu's palm.
"A Soul Returning Pill?" Yin Ningyu looked at the pill in her hand in surprise. "You still have one?"
"Seeing you treat Ning Yu so well, I can finally rest easy," Zhong Lingqing also said with a smile, looking at the Soul Returning Pill with satisfaction.
She had been somewhat nervous about Yin Ningyu's Heavenly Tribulation, but now it seemed there was absolutely no need to worry.
Rumble!
Another earth-shaking sound rang out. Yin Ningyu, who had just been about to speak, gave Jiang Xun a deep look, clearly expressing her gratitude.
Afterward, Yin Ningyu immediately flew into the distance to undergo the tribulation, so as not to affect Jiang Xun, Zhong Lingqing, or the commoners of Tianji City.
【Ding, Huiyuan Pill gifted successfully!】
【Obtained: Soul Returning Pill x500!】
Jiang Xun had long since become numb to this.
But the notification for the successful gifting of the Soul Returning Pill was slow to arrive.
It seemed Yin Ningyu had not yet accepted the Soul Returning Pill in her heart; perhaps she intended to return it to Jiang Xun if she didn't end up using it.
After all, this item was indeed too precious.
Jiang Xun and Zhong Lingqing then followed in Yin Ningyu's direction, watching her transcend the tribulation from not far away.
When the two arrived, the first bolt of the Heavenly Tribulation happened to fall.
Yin Ningyu backhanded a sword flourish, and several streaks of sword Qi collided with the Heavenly Tribulation.

On Tu Wan's side, because Jiang Xun and the Tianwu Sect had been very close just a moment ago, she had quickly received Jiang Xun's Communication Jade Tube.
Hearing that Jiang Xun could actually give her another Soul Returning Pill, Tu Wan immediately took out her Jade Tube to reply, but then she hesitated.
How could a Jade Tube be faster than teleportation? Besides, she still had to go get the Soul Returning Pill, right?
Thus, Tu Wan immediately decided to teleport directly from Yunyin City to Tianji City to meet Jiang Xun in person and get everything said clearly at once.
As the Saintess of the Tianwu Sect, this small amount of High-grade Spirit Stones was nothing to her.
Tu Wan flew straight out of the Tianwu Sect. This time she didn't run into anyone, nor did she tell anyone she was going to Yunyin City.
As a result, just after leaving the Tianwu Sect and arriving at Yunyin City, she was surrounded by seven or eight Nascent Soul cultivators.
"Who are you people?"
Tu Wan took out a new Snake Chain Sword and looked at the group vigilantly, observing potential escape routes; the previous one had been broken by Jiang Xun.
"Is this person Tu Wan?"
The people around looked at each other, then closed in step by step.
There were both men and women, and their clothing looked like that of ordinary commoners in Yunyin City; it seemed they had been lurking here for some time.
"It's definitely her, she is Tu Wan!"
Among the group, a short woman stepped forward, pointing her sword at Tu Wan.
Tu Wan recognized this girl.
Lu Yingying.
The Spirit Sound Sect disciple who had argued with her on the stairs at the Void Sect.
"Don't let her run! This is a great opportunity!"
A disciple shouted upon hearing this.
Not everyone present was a disciple of the Spirit Sound Sect; there were others from different sects as well.
They had all been sent to lurk around the Tianwu Sect during this period, but they couldn't get into the Tianwu Sect and could only linger near Yunyin City.
It had already been three or four days.
They hadn't expected to ambush Tu Wan here today.
They had also seen Jiang Xun when he came earlier, but Jiang Xun had already changed back to his young appearance at the time. When Lu Yingying saw Jiang Xun, she only thought he was a handsome man and didn't realize it was Jiang Xun at all.
"Aunt, save me!"
Seeing that the situation was bad, Tu Wan hurriedly shouted toward the space behind them.
The disciples were all startled and hurriedly looked back.
If Tu Nan were to come, that would be no joke!
As it turned out, they saw nothing. When they realized and looked back at Tu Wan, she had already flown away.
"Save me! Spirit Sound Sect!"
Tu Wan knew she definitely couldn't escape, so in her desperation, she took out a Communication Jade Tube and threw it out.
Because the one she had just put away was the Communication Jade Tube for Jiang Xun, the one she could take out the fastest now was also Jiang Xun's.
The moment the Jade Tube was thrown, Tu Wan was surrounded by the disciples.
Tu Wan immediately spun in the air, and at the same time, her Snake Chain Whip unfurled. The four-meter-long chain whip rotated around her, blocking their first wave of attacks.
But soon, a man at the Nascent Soul Late Stage Peak rushed out and knocked the Snake Chain Whip away with a sword strike.
Although the hilt was still in Tu Wan's hand, the whip had been knocked away, and because it was so long, she couldn't retract it in a short time.
This was also a major drawback of the whip.
Before Tu Wan could react, the disciple extended two fingers and pressed heavily on Tu Wan's abdomen, directly sealing her Spirit Power.
At the same time, he took out an iron chain and bound Tu Wan up.
Tu Wan, at the Nascent Soul Early Stage, could not possibly be his match.
"Run quickly!"
Being in Yunyin City at this moment, and having just seen Tu Wan throw out a Communication Jade Tube, these people dared not hesitate at all and scattered in a rush.
A great war was imminent, and they had captured the Saintess of the Tianwu Sect; this was absolutely a massive merit!

On the other side, Yin Ningyu successfully survived the heavenly lightning and advanced to the Void Refining Initial Stage, her entire being glowing with radiance.
"This is for you, I didn't use it." After returning, Yin Ningyu hurried to Jiang Xun's side, took Jiang Xun's hand, and smiled happily.
"You should just keep it." Jiang Xun held Yin Ningyu's hand, then grasped her hand: "I still have more of these things; you keep it, just in case it's useful—though, of course, it's best if it's not needed."
"You have more?" Yin Ningyu's pupils widened slightly upon hearing this: "Did you get them all from the Void Sect?"
"That's right." Jiang Xun nodded and said: "Take it, be obedient."
"Oh..." Yin Ningyu nodded, only then accepting the Soul Returning Pill.
Jiang Xun naturally received a rebate of one thousand Soul Returning Pills again.
For anyone to die in front of Jiang Xun, that would be pure nonsense.
"Strange... if the Tianwu Sect has so many Soul Returning Pills, how did that Demon Venerable Jun Tianling still die?"
Zhong Lingqing asked in confusion upon hearing this.
"Who knows." Jiang Xun shrugged: "Since everything is resolved, shall we return to the Lingerie-Sect?"
"Do we need to clean up the corpses and the spaceship debris over there?" Zhong Lingqing asked after hearing this.
"No need, it can't be cleaned up completely; there will always be traces. As long as we ensure there are no survivors, with Cang Xingling helping to speak for us afterward, the matter of this ship will be covered up very quickly."
Jiang Xun waved his hand.
"Alright then." Zhong Lingqing nodded, then finally let out a sigh of relief: "Although there were twists and turns this trip, the result is still good. Ning Yu has finally broken through to Void Refinement, and you kid have also broken through to Spirit Severing, becoming younger."
【Ding, Zhong Lingqing's favorability: 45.】
Only after everything had calmed down did Zhong Lingqing have time to process what had just happened; she also noticed that Jiang Xun had killed the people falling from the spaceship before they could hit the ground and die.
How could she not know that Jiang Xun did this to alleviate her sense of guilt?
