175 Subduing The White Tiger 5

At that moment, she felt as if all her organs were nourished in a warm cocoon of this gentle spiritual Qi. She could not help but inhale deeply with comfort spreading to all the pores on her skin. Then, she opened her eyes; her beautiful irises fixated on Gu Ruoyun. It was obvious that in her heart that Gu Ruoyun was more tantalizing than Bai Chuan.

Even though she had resided within the body of Bai Chuan for five to six years, it could not be compared to the restoration that the gust of spiritual Qi just had provided her.

"Frankly, little girl, the spiritual Qi that you had just channeled to me is extremely tempting. But I, Yunyao, am unwilling to submit to any humans. Or else, I should’ve just become a mount for those people in the first place; at least I wouldn’t be suffering from such a severe injury from the attacks! However, you did help me recover by giving me some of your spiritual Qi. As a token of gratitude, I will fight for you for a short period of time. Although I’m severely injured, there shouldn’t be a problem as long as our opponent is not a Martial Emperor."

"Alright."

Gu Ruoyun was silent for a moment. Soon, she agreed to the demands of Yunyao. "You should leave Bai Chuan’s body now. I will then send you to a place where you could heal from your injuries."

After her speech, the thread of spiritual consciousness seemed that it was unable to hold it any longer. She immediately withdrew with a loud exhale.

"How did it go, Master?"

Wei Yiyi stood nervously by her side. Just as she wanted to ask Gu Ruoyun about the result, a puff of heavy mist rose from within Bai Chuan. Soon, the mist condensed and materialized into the form of a young lady in a yellow dress.

"She... She’s out." Bai Chuan immediately burst into tears.

He had never cried from his numerous failures, nor has he shed a tear on his tough journey to seek the Ghost Doctor. He did not even tear up when he saw Wei Yiyi! However, at this moment when Bai Chuan looked at Yunyao who had left his spiritual ocean, tears welled up in his eyes.

After all, no matter how mature he made himself out to be, he was still a child. All of the emotions he had suppressed throughout the years seemed to explode at that very second; he was so close to hugging Gu Ruoyun and kissing her once or twice.

Yunyao has finally left. This means that he was no longer a good-for-nothing! After all these years of humiliation, how could it be possible for him to stay calm?

"Master, did… did you subdue her?"

Wei Yiyi widened her eyes instinctively. She has an immense respect for Gu Ruoyun; she had never imagined that her Master would be so powerful to even subdue a Divine Beast! No one within the Azure Dragon Country would dare to harass her Master without reason now. 

"Yunyao, I’ll escort you to your rehabilitation."

Gu Ruoyun did not elaborate. Instead, she led Yunyao directly to the Ancient Divine Pagoda. No matter what happened, with Zixie still residing in the Ancient Divine Pagoda, she would not need to worry about any trouble from Yunyao.

However, she was not worried about Yunyao spreading news about the Ancient Divine Pagoda either. Firstly, Yunyao could not leave the Pagoda, and secondly, Yunyao will become one of the fiercest warriors under her command!

"Wei Yiyi, I need to recover from the injuries I had obtained just now. Leave with Bai Chuan for now and do not come in without my express permission." Gu Ruoyun shut her eyes, still weak from her previous administration. She looked pale. 

Wei Yiyi was very concerned but she knew that this level of injury would not be a big issue for her Master’s capabilities. Thus, she nodded and said, "Okay Master, I’ll just be right outside the door. Call me if you need anything."

After that, she dragged Bai Chuan, who was still bawling and walked out of the door. After both of them have disappeared, Gu Ruoyun entered the Pagoda with a single thought.

Since achieving the level of a Martial Warrior, another two major levels would be required before one could proceed to the next level in the Ancient Divine Pagoda. Thus, Gu Ruoyun had to go from Martial Warrior to Martial Knight, then to Martial General before she was able to obtain the treasures on the third level of the Divine Pagoda.

The snow wolf, Baobao, and the Longevity Pill were the treasures she had obtained from the third floor.

At the same time, a gigantic and mighty White Tiger was shivering and hiding in a corner in the Ancient Divine Pagoda with all its fur puffed out, as if there was a terrifying being nearby.
