179: Don't be afraid, sister-in-law, I am my brother...

“Hiss~”

A moment later, a colorful small snake slowly emerged from Nangong Xueli’s sleeve, flicking its tongue, its pupils glowing with an eerie light.

Just now, that streak of colorful lightning was the snake’s tail it had whipped out.

One strike to kill a Quasi-Emperor!

Seeing the colorful small snake appear, Nangong Xueli’s beautiful face turned grave, as if facing a formidable enemy.

This colorful small snake was something she and Yao Mu had unexpectedly found in a forbidden zone after arriving in the Upper Realm.

At the time, this colorful small snake was completely encased in ice, almost frozen stiff.

Yao Mu thought it was a young Divine Beast, so she had Nangong Xueli use spiritual fire to thaw it, intending to subdue it.

But to their utter surprise, this was actually an Ancient Heaven-Devouring Python Emperor, whose origin was even greater than Yao Mu’s!

It was merely severely injured and in a deep slumber, undergoing a rebirth.

After being awakened by Nangong Xueli, the Heaven-Devouring Python Emperor seemed to sense something from Nangong Xueli’s body and immediately coiled around her.

Yao Mu tried to resist but was struck into a deep slumber by the Heaven-Devouring Python Emperor.

She had not yet awakened to this day.

Thus, from then on, Nangong Xueli had been acting under the coercion of the Heaven-Devouring Python Emperor.

Fortunately, the Heaven-Devouring Python Emperor’s own condition was further worsened by Yao Mu, and it was in a very poor state.

After severely injuring and putting Nangong Xueli’s greatest trump card into slumber, it would also periodically fall into slumber itself and did not force Nangong Xueli to do anything out of line.

However, after the Heaven-Devouring Python Emperor coiled around Nangong Xueli, it unexpectedly learned of Nangong Xueli’s identity as an eighth-grade Alchemist.

It then commanded her to help it search for Medicinal Pills everywhere and refine a Medicinal Pill called the Water-Milk Fusion Heaven Pill.

“Woman, diligently help me find Medicinal Pills and refine them. The day the Medicinal Pills are completed, I will return your freedom.”

The seven-colored small python flicked its tongue at Nangong Xueli, uttering these words.

“...”

Upon hearing this, Nangong Xueli’s beautiful face slightly chilled, and her jade hands clenched, yet she was helpless.

Now, as the saying goes, the man is the knife and she is the fish.

With Yao Mu in a deep slumber, she could not single-handedly resist this seven-colored small python, which was the Ancient Heaven-Devouring Python Emperor.

She could only respond in a low voice and wait to see what would happen.

“Roar!”

Just as Nangong Xueli finished collecting the spatial ring from the black-faced elder and was about to leave, a high-pitched tiger’s roar suddenly came from afar.

A white tiger swooped down from the sky.

“Sister-in-Law, I found you!”

On the back of the white tiger, a handsome young man looked surprised and waved at Nangong Xueli.

The newcomer was none other than Ji Kunchang.

In the past, after he and Lin Yang parted ways and he returned to the Upper Realm, he and the white tiger who accompanied him to the Upper Realm left the Ji Imperial Clan to Cultivate outside.

A few months ago, he accidentally learned of Nangong Xueli’s news and was immediately shocked.

Big Brother’s fiancée is in the Upper Realm!?

With his sister-in-Law in the Upper Realm, he had to personally entertain her!

Therefore, he immediately rode the white tiger to search for Nangong Xueli.

Hard work pays off, and he finally learned Nangong Xueli’s latest news not long ago.

However, he also learned that another group of people was hunting Nangong Xueli.

Thus, filled with anger and shock, he immediately rushed over at full speed.

Fortunately, he arrived very timely; Nangong Xueli seemed to be unharmed except for her slightly pale complexion.

“Sister-in-Law, don’t be afraid, I am my brother’s...”

Ji Kunchang smiled and waved, worried that Nangong Xueli would mistake him for an enemy, and hastily tried to introduce his identity clearly at the first Opportunity.

“Slap!!!”

However, before he could finish speaking, he, along with his tiger, was violently whipped away by a thick, colorful snake tail.

Ji Kunchang was caught off guard, never expecting his sister-in-Law to attack him. He was sent flying back beyond the horizon, utterly bewildered.

“Hurry and leave! Otherwise, I will kill you and your Master right now!”

After a single flick of its tail, the seven-colored small python flicked its tongue at Nangong Xueli, threatening her viciously.

Nangong Xueli bit her red lip lightly, glanced at Ji Kunchang’s retreating figure, and under the Heaven-Devouring Python Emperor’s threat, she could only turn and leave.

However, as she turned, she casually dropped a protective amulet from her waist.

That amulet was none other than the one Mu Yunxi had refined for Lin Yang when she became a Half-Saint in the Lower Realm, and which Lin Yang had then given to Nangong Xueli.

Although this Half-Saint amulet had long lost its effectiveness for Nangong Xueli.

But because it was a gift from Lin Yang, Nangong Xueli had never been willing to throw it away and had always carried it with her.

Now, with the appearance of someone who was possibly acquainted with Lin Yang, she dropped this item, hoping that the other party might give it to Lin Yang.

With Lin Yang’s wisdom, as long as he saw this item, he would surely understand her current predicament.

At that time, things might take a turn for the better.

Of course, she also did not wish for Lin Yang to put himself in danger and face an Ancient Heaven-Devouring Python Emperor alone.

But as things stood, she could only hope that Lin Yang would understand her meaning and ask the Holy Emperor Sect’s Great Emperor Sect Master and the Great Completion Holy Body Saintess for help.

Beyond the horizon.

Ji Kunchang, who had been somewhat dizzy from the tail whip, took a while to recover. He looked at Nangong Xueli’s rapidly disappearing figure and sighed with a pained expression:

“Sister-in-Law, you should have let me finish speaking. I am Big Brother’s sworn brother, Ji Kunchang...”

...Several days later.

Heavenly Palace.

Beneath the Ten Thousand Blades God-Slaying Formation, a bronze door trembled slightly and was the first to open.

A young figure with a Qi of Perfection emerged from it, his face radiant, his eyes shining like stars.

It was Hong Yu, the foremost among the ten prodigies.

“The God King’s Opportunity is indeed extraordinary! It finally allowed me to reach Perfection!”

Hong Yu clenched his fist, feeling the surging power within his body, and couldn’t help but reveal a smile on his face.

He had gained immense Opportunity behind the bronze palace door, successfully making up for previous deficiencies.

Now, he too had advanced to become a flawless-level Prodigy!

“However, they must have also become stronger...”

Hong Yu looked at the remaining eight doors, his gaze lingering on the four silver doors.

Although he had now successfully joined the ranks of flawless-level Prodigies, compared to people like Dongfang Xiang and Lan Qiaomeng, he still lacked some experience.

After all, the original four flawless-level Prodigies, after obtaining the Opportunity behind the silver doors, their strength would undoubtedly surge, surpassing their previous selves.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

As he watched, more bronze and silver doors opened successively, and a group of powerful figures emerged from them.

These were the top Prodigies who had successfully passed the array earlier.

As Hong Yu had expected, each of their Qi was significantly stronger than before entering, and their faces were radiant.

Clearly, they had all gained considerable Opportunity.

“Has he not come out yet?”

Someone looked at the golden door in the deepest part of the Heavenly Palace and said this.

“The Opportunity behind the silver doors is enough to increase our strength by more than thirty percent. I truly wonder how astonishing the Opportunity behind that golden door must be.”

Lan Qiaomeng looked at the closed golden door, and a hint of envy couldn’t help but show in her beautiful eyes.

To think that Lin Yang was already slightly superior to them before entering the golden door.

Now that he had obtained the greatest God King Opportunity behind the golden door, his strength would surely surge again.

She truly wondered how strong he would be when he came out.

“Heh heh, what’s the use of a good Opportunity? This child is no longer blessed to enjoy it.”

Just then, Zhou Aofeng suddenly said with a cold laugh.

“You mean...”

“That’s right, I just received a message from my clan that the Sea of Law is about to recede, and the Great Emperor Old Ancestors of the Upper Realm will personally descend to retrieve several items.”

“Among them is the Old Ancestor of the Ji Imperial Clan,” Zhou Aofeng said.

“Emperor Anlan!”

Lan Qiaomeng, Dongfang Xiang, Shen Tanlang, and others were all startled upon hearing this.

“If I remember correctly, this Lin Yang and the Ji Imperial Clan had a very intense conflict before,” Shen Tanlang said, stroking his chin with a mysterious smile.

“Indeed, if nothing unexpected happens, Emperor Anlan will definitely seek out this child immediately upon descending to the Lower Realm and grind him to dust!”

“What a pity, no one can escape the killing intent of a six-lifetime Emperor.”

Dongfang Xiang sighed lightly, it seemed he would not have the chance to personally seek revenge on Lin Yang.

Once Emperor Anlan of the Ji Imperial Clan descended, he would certainly not let Lin Yang go.

Lin Yang was destined to die!
