Chapter 1823: So, it’s my fault?

Hearing his words, the black-skinned Soft Feather quickly returned to Song Shuhang’s shadow, refusing to come out again. She was afraid that Song Shuhang, who was drinking quite a lot at the moment, would really slice her up.
“You don’t have to be afraid. I’m not that crazy.” Song Shuhang reached out, and grabbed Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword.
“What are you doing?” asked Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword, who was enjoying Fairy Dongfang Six’s Bewitching Dance and the singing of the other members of the Nine Provinces Number One Group.
Song Shuhang said, “Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword, let’s go catch some Third Stage heavenly tribulation, and then come back and serve the seniors in the group a dish.”
“…” Scarlet Heaven Sword.
And where are you going to just casually get a Third Stage heavenly tribulation?
“Teacher, how about I draw my Third Stage heavenly tribulation and transcend it?” asked Chu Chu with her head tilted. She had acc.u.mulated a lot of benefits from drinking the immortal tea of that mysterious senior back in the Throne of Wealth Distribution. As such, she could draw out her heavenly tribulation at any moment.
“You shouldn’t rush it… Delay your heavenly tribulation for now. Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword is right; we can’t be too complacent. Even if it’s just a Third Stage heavenly tribulation, you mustn’t be careless, and should give it your all.” Song Shuhang waved his hand around while holding Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword high up. “I’ll be going out for a walk. I’ve got a feeling that I’ll definitely be able to catch a Third Stage heavenly tribulation and return soon.”
Scarlet Heaven Sword said, “Stop fooling around. Heavenly Field Island is in the middle of a vast sea. Who would be transcending their heavenly tribulation of the Third Stage out there? Moreover, even if you do encounter one, do you have the means to seal the heavenly tribulation? Why don’t you just accompany me in enjoying the song and dance?”
Song Shuhang moved his hand, and used six instances of the ❮Saber-Nurturing Technique❯ on Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword.
Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword said, “Ooh~ You’re a good young man. Alright, Chu Chu, can you record the show for me? Make sure you get everything, especially the Bewitching Dance performed by that little demon girl. I’ll just go on a short stroll with Song Shuhang.”
Chu Chu nodded obediently.
Song Shuhang waved his hand, and threw Lady Onion into Chu Chu’s hands.
Afterward, he and Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword flew out of Heavenly Field Island.

“Speaking of which, where are you going to find someone who’s about to transcend their tribulation?” asked Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword.
Song Shuhang replied, “I’m leaving that up to fate. Let’s just have a look around.”
Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword asked, “Alright, let’s take a moment to consider this first. If you really meet a fellow daoist who’s about to transcend their heavenly tribulation of the Third Stage, are you just going to meddle in their tribulation?”
Interfering with other people’s tribulations was a big taboo in the world of cultivation—a group transcension might be refres.h.i.+ng every now and then, but that almost always ended up with everyone dead. Although Song Shuhang could be considered very experienced when it came to overcoming group tribulations, what if the other party didn’t want to ride the bus?
Song Shuhang said, “So, should we look for Celestials?”
If he were to provoke some Celestials, at least he wouldn’t feel any psychological pressure. After all, they were at odds with one another.
“Among the Celestials who have come to the main world, none of them have strength below the Fourth Stage,” replied Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword. The main reason the Celestials came to the main world was to hunt down Golden Cores or Monster Cores, so why would they bother bringing over weak Second Stage Celestials? Just for fun?
Song Shuhang said, “Senior, you do have a point.”
Scarlet Heaven Sword remarked, “Well, it isn’t late to go back now. Let’s just go back and finish watching the ❮Bewitching Dance❯.”
Song Shuhang said, “It’s fine. We went out so boldly, so we should at least stroll around a bit before going back.”
Scarlet Heaven Sword asked, “Why is it now that you’re feeling thin-skinned?”
“I’ve always been thin-skinned,” Song Shuhang said with a smile. “If there really isn’t anything, we can just go into the sea to catch a big fish and bring that back.”
As they were talking with one another, Song Shuhang’s phone suddenly rang.
“Has Sixteen arrived?” Song Shuhang took out his phone, had a look at who was calling, and saw that it was Soft Feather.
Why is Soft Feather calling me?
Song Shuhang accepted the call curiously. “Soft Feather, is something wrong?”
Soft Feather asked curiously, “Senior Song, as soon as I arrived, I found that all the seniors of the Nine Provinces Number One Group were drunk. My father was also pulled over by Senior Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue to drink. I saw Chu Chu and Lady Onion, but I couldn’t see you anywhere. Where did you go?”
Song Shuhang said, “Hahahaha, I just went out to grab something to eat. I’ll be back in a short while. Why are you looking for me?”
Soft Feather replied, “Hehe, I wanted to borrow Senior Song’s hamster wheel for a bit.”
Song Shuhang laughed. “Sure. In a short while, I’ll use Lady Onion as the coordinates, and use the treasured saber Broken Tyrant to send you the hamster wheel.”
“Thank you, Senior Song~” Soft Feather said, “Once I’m back home, I’ll contact Senior Eternal Fire and see if I can get permission to study the Impregnating Gaze. If Senior Eternal Fire agrees, Senior Song, make sure to come teach me the technique. It really seems quite fun!”
After saying that, Soft Feather hung up.
“…” Song Shuhang.
When he used Impregnating Gaze himself, he felt no psychological pressure whatsoever, and it had even become something he could use skillfully. However, for some reason, just imagining Soft Feather using the Impregnating Gaze on the enemy made his views of the technique collapse.
After thinking about it, he first sent the hamster wheel back with Broken Tyrant. I hope that Island Master Tian Tiankong can sober up and allow the ‘island-guarding formation’ to make an exception for the treasured saber…
Just after he finished his call with Soft Feather, his phone rang again.
This time, it was Su Clan’s Sixteen.
“Did they plan this beforehand?” Song Shuhang reached out and accepted the call. “h.e.l.lo, Sixteen, have you arrived?”
Su Clan’s Sixteen said softly, “Yup~ I’m here on Western Orchid Island.”
Song Shuhang replied, “Wait for me, I’ll come right over.”
Song Shuhang said, “Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword, let’s turn around and go to Western Orchid Island first.”
Now then, how was he supposed to take Sixteen away?
A car?
Nope, drunk driving is bad. Even cultivators have to abide by the rules in this regard, one shouldn’t be like Fairy Dongfang Six. Though Fairy Dongfang Six doesn’t really drive drunk, she just has extremely poor driving skills…
In the end, will I have to resort to using a horse?
❄️❄️❄️
On Western Orchid Island.
Su Clan’s Sixteen was wearing a black cap to cover the little dragon horns on her head.
She followed the crowd, and walked around Western Orchid Island.
“Sister Sixteen, where are we going?” At this time, there was a little boy, who looked quite similar to her, holding her left hand and walking with her.
“We’re waiting for someone,” Su Clan’s Sixteen replied.
The boy asked curiously, “Oh, is it Little Grandpa Seven?”
Su Clan’s Sixteen replied patiently, “We’ll also see Seven in a while.”
“Oh.” The boy nodded slowly.
After a while, the boy said, “Sister Sixteen, I can’t hold it anymore.”
Su Clan’s Sixteen replied, “Just a little longer.”
“But I’ve already endured it for several days. It’s not like ascending is something that can just be delayed forever.” The boy had a bitter and tense look on his face.
While speaking, a tribulation cloud loomed over his and Su Clan’s Sixteen’s heads.
Su Clan’s Sixteen stretched out her hand and patted him. After doing so, the boy’s aura was forcibly suppressed, and the tribulation cloud above their heads dissipated.
“Wouldn’t it be better for you to have stayed in the Su Clan? How did you even run out?” Sixteen felt troubled.
The boy smiled proudly. “I followed the secret path you used to sneak out of the clan last time.”
“…” Su Clan’s Sixteen.
