Chapter 1287 “One Year Later (1)”
Inside the great meeting hall, the Keepers are already sitting in their respected seats and giving off a majestic air of authority with their presence. This was what Yun Ruo Xi walked into and she felt uncomfortably on edge under their gaze: “Dear Keepers, is something the matter for summoning me so urgently?”
“Ruo Xi, you’re here.” Speaking out to greet the woman was Keeper Ling who toned down his cold and frosty expression, “We’ve been discussing on a certain matter for a while now. It’s clear that the Celestial Lord is unhappy with us and won’t permit the Celestial Palace to do anything to those demons right now. I’m afraid it will just be a matter of time before our world falls into the hands of those demons.”
A shade of white gripped Yun Ruo Xi’s face. When the splitting image of Bai Yan standing above herself again like all those years ago, she would feel immeasurable rage.
No!
I won’t allow her to step atop of my head again, nor will I let Chu Yi G.o.d yearn after her for all his life!
“Revered Keepers, please go ahead and instruct me.” Drawing her lips into a thin line, Yun Ruo Xi appears firm in the eye on wanting to fight, “As long as it’s something within my ability then I would go through fire and ice to achieve it!”
Nodding pleasantly over the quick reply, Keeper Ling turns back to his brethren’s who’s also listening in: “Look at Ruo Xi, only someone as understanding and kind like her can be called outstanding. Compared to the one brought back by that old coot, her ability is here for all to see!”
Despite the proud speech, the others didn’t comment on it because it did involve their former leader and the previous Bai Yan. Yes, they feared what Bai Yan could do, there’s no mistake about that, but it’s also true they did like the girl when the old coot first brought her back from the outside.
For one thing, the talent portrayed by Bai Yan was leagues ahead of Ruo Xi to the point everyone thought she would eventually be on par with Chu Yi G.o.d.
However……
Fate wouldn’t have it and things quickly spiraled out of their control until… well, they all knew what they did and the sin they committed for the sake of protecting the Celestial Realm!
“Ruo Xi, the reasoning for calling you here today is because we have found a way to restore your health to its former state. That year you sacrificed yourself at the risk of your own life to save the Celestial Lord, and now we will return that sacrifice by allowing your power to grow at speeds beyond your imagination.” Keeper Zun (ashen robe Keeper) softly explains with a smile of his own.
Sparkling with elation at the thought of becoming truly strong, Yun Ruo Xi jumped on the idea and hurriedly nodded. Almost shaking in her voice due to the excitement: “Is that true? I can really continue to cultivate and grow stronger than before? I honestly thought I would never be able to recover….”
“Of course, why would we lie?” Keeper Zun frowns after remembering the conditions needed, “Just that this method is a bit troublesome. We will need the blood of the most supreme bloodline from the fox race, and it must be from a female baby at that. Right now we only know one that can match the requirement and that is Demon King Di Cang. Only by drinking his bloodline’s blood can we restore your body to its former state and allow your strength to grow exponentially faster.”
The blood of the demon king’s bloodline, and it must be a female baby fox?
Yun Ruo Xi bit her own lip in frustration because she knew how impossible that would be.
“However, as far as we know there is only one female fox that’s related to the demon king. That Di Xiao Wan would’ve been barely good enough to qualify, but she’s already come of age so we cannot use her anymore.”
