Chapter 221 - Linlin's Surprise
Chapter 221 – Linlin’s Surprise
"Several times dangerous?" Yun Lintian repeated in puzzlement. He remembered the assessment consisted of a knowledge test, survival ability test, and strength test. The first one was nothing difficult to understand, while the strength test was probably a kind of cliche tournament. Hence, the danger Han Bingling referred to was definitely related to the survival ability test.
Or perhaps they changed the rule? Yun Lintian thought. A moment later, he shook his head, putting this matter aside, and looked at the saint-rank abyssal profound beast cores on the table. He didn't know whether the Profound Spiritual Liquid he had right now could deal with it. If it turned out to be futile, Yun Lintian didn't have other solutions anymore.
"Big Brother Yun, give them to me." Linlin jumped onto the table and said.
Yun Lintian looked at Linlin confusedly as he asked. "How are you going to deal with them?"
"Of course, eat them." Linlin replied while licking her lips.
A frown appeared on Yun Lintian's face. "Eat them? You can't! There is Abyssal Energy in them. It will harm your body."
Linlin shook her head lightly. "It won't. My body can digest it."
"Are you sure?" Yun Lintian didn't believe her. Though she was a divine beast, she was too weak right now. Yun Lintian definitely won't let her take a risk.
Linlin didn't reply to Yun Lintian but swiftly threw one of the saint-rank abyssal profound beast cores into her mouth. Her speed was too fast, to the point Yun Lintian couldn't even react.
"You!… Take it out!" Yun Lintian was angry and hurriedly picked Linlin up, trying to make her spit it out.
However, Yun Lintian soon discovered Linlin's aura was sharply rising. From the fourth-level Origin Profound Realm to the fifth, sixth, seventh until the tenth level, and it still continued to increase.
Yun Lintian quickly activated Eyes of Heaven, observing the energy within Linlin's body. He then discovered Abyssal Energy was speedily digested by her until it completely vanished.
"This…" Yun Lintian was lost for words. He didn't expect Linlin to have such a heaven-defying ability. Regarding Abyssal Energy, Yun Lintian understood very well; it would influence any profound beast and caused them to lose their mind. However, it was actually nothing to Linlin! Moreover, it could even increase her strength!
"This Abyssal Energy is nothing but a mere low-level dark attribute energy. It cannot harm a divine beast like me." Linlin explained while licking her paws.
"Dark attribute energy?… I see." Yun Lintian was enlightened immediately. He picked one abyssal profound beast core up and became hesitated.
"You can't use it, Big Brother Yun. Although Big Brother Yun's Profound Vein holds an affinity toward dark elements, Big Brother Yun's current strength is insufficient. It would definitely harm you." Linlin quickly stopped Yun Lintian.
"Ah?… What a pity. I thought I had found a shortcut." Yun Lintian reluctantly put it down and sighed to himself.
"Don't worry. As long as Big Brother Yun could find the dark attribute origin source, Big Brother Yun could have it as much as you want." Linlin put her wet paw on Yun Lintian's hand, comforting him.
"Sigh, I don't even know where it is." Yun Lintian was disappointed. Perhaps, when he found it, his strength would have been high enough and no longer needed to absorb this Abyssal Energy.
He adjusted his mood and asked Linlin. "Are you going to eat more?"
Linlin surprisingly shook her head. "I can eat one per five days. This thing is too high level for me right now."
"Is that so? Then big brother will save them for you later." Yun Lintian put all the abyssal profound beast cores into his interspatial ring.
"What's going on?" At this moment, Yun Meilan walked into the living room with a confused expression. She didn't understand how did she oversleep.
"It's Han Bingling who did it." Yun Lintian replied.
A rare frown appeared on Yun Meilan's face. "Why?"
Yun Lintian explained Han Bingling's purpose in coming here and Yun Qianxue's departure matter.
Yun Meilan was shocked when she learned Yun Qianxue had left. In her opinion, Yun Qianxue would never ever leave Yun Lintian's side. There must be something more than simply entered the enlightening state.
The two of them went silent. Yun Lintian's mood turned gloomy again when he thought of Yun Qianxue. He was both worried and missing her. Even though Han Bingling had sent someone to protect her secretly, Yun Lintian was not at ease.
"I'm back!" The front door suddenly opened along with Yun Lingwei walked into the room. She went out to familiarize herself with the city as well as checked on various restaurants.
When she saw the gloomy atmosphere, Yun Lingwei immediately realized something big had happened. "What's wrong?" Yun Lingwei asked and sat down beside Yun Meilan.
Yun Lintian was not in a good mood to explain again and gave this duty to Yun Meilan.
Upon Yun Lingwei hearing this, her mouth opened wide in shock because she also had the same idea as Yun Meilan — No matter what, Yun Qianxue would never leave Yun Lintian. How come she left like this?
"I knew it. That Han Bingling is not a good thing!" Yun Lingwei gnashed her teeth angrily, as she thought Han Bingling definitely instigated Yun Qianxue to leave.
"Have you contacted her?" Yun Lingwei asked.
Yun Lintian shook his head and said nothing. Based on Yun Qianxue's personality, he didn't have to try at all because it would undoubtedly fail to reach her. She was extremely determined, after all.
The three of them fell into silence for a long time. Yun Lintian tried to break the atmosphere by asking Yun Lingwei, "What did you get?"
Yun Lingwei took out a small book and said. "The consumption rate in this city is relatively high. Many people cannot afford the food and accommodation. My conclusion is that we can choose either a low-end inn business or a restaurant. The only problem is we don't have a supplier as well as a place to open our business."
