--- Chapter 193 ---
[Congratulation, Host]
[You caught yet another new harem member]
[Once again, you have proven yourself as a lucky bastard!]
Baek Ain ignored Alicia's teasing for the whole journey. It was good that he was more resistant to something like this after one hundred reincarnations.
Not to mention, Baek Ain has his hands full of Luo Bingbing. This woman escaped the 'Tale of Unfinished Samsara' not by finishing it like him but by wholeheartedly accepting it.
She was 'literally' devoured by her reincarnation.
Alicia told Baek Ain a case like this was very rare because anyone who experienced the 'Tale of Unfinished Samsara' either died or became insane. Still, Luo Bingbing doesn't seem to be the two cases.
She's still 'normal' with a functioning mind and soul, in a way, except for her overflowing affection for Baek Ain.
Luo Bingbing is hugging Baek Ain's right arm, acting like a spoiled baby koala. Her green eyes lit up every time she noticed a shift in Baek Ain's handsome face(whether small or not) like it was a fascinating mini-game of her own.
Her body language drastically changed as she locked herself to Baek Ain more affectionately since her awakening.
Who would have thought this woman wanted to brainwash Baek Ain a while ago, but now she acts like a fawn and little lover? And it's not even an act. She really saw herself as Baek Ain's wife.
As they flew in the sky, Baek Ain opened his mouth and couldn't help but ask, "Luo Bingbing, do you still remember what happened before I used the Tale of Unfinished Samsara on you?"
"I, yes..." Luo Bingbing lowered her head. "I'm sorry for being such a hassle for you, husband."
"I shouldn't have done such a thing."
[Woah, what a good little wife you have here, Host] Alicia commented sarcastically.
Baek Ain shut Alicia's ability to spout more nonsense and focused on Luo Bingbing. He sighed, "It's fine."
"At least you don't kill anyone and simply put them in trials."
"I..." Luo Bingbing has a guilty look on her face. "I was immature."
"When I saw Husband fight that little dragon, I was immediately attracted to you. So I wanted to test you even further with the help of Bodhisattva Ancient Tree."
"But you get the taste of your own medicine." Baek Ain commented casually.
Luo Bingbing's cheek flushed in shame, "Y-Yes."
"It was a twist of fate."
After that, the mood became awkward, and Luo Bingbing fumbled with her fingers. She always answered Baek Ain's question but dodged his gaze for some reason.
Baek Ain mainly asked whether Luo Bingbing remembered her former self or not after the Tale of Unfinished Samsara, to which the green-eyed woman responded yes.
Her real name is indeed Luo Bingbing.
She was from the Luo God Clan, one of the Four Great God Clans in the West Heaven Continent in the Great Thousand Worlds. Not surprisingly, her status is the young mistress of the clan.
Luo Bingbing rejected the status of Clan Leader because she discovered the legendary Dark Sage Fan Gu's legacy map. She ventured to countless worlds, accidentally ending up here for a rest.
Not only did Luo Bingbing get an unforgettable experience, but she also rebirths anew as Baek Ain's wife. The corner of Baek Ain's mouth twitched when she said this.
[Ding! You have finished the 'Mysterious Female Cultivator.' Quest]
[You have exceeded the objective by turning "Luo Bingbing" into your faithful ally! You may obtain an extra reward]
[Rewarding 1x Grotto Demonic Void's Dungeon Key, 1x World Travelling Ticket's Piece, and 1x Bodhisattva Ancient Tree's Heartwood]
Baek Ain furrowed his brows at the second notification and checked his rewards.
[Name: Grotto Demonic Void's Dungeon Key]
[Type: Dungeon Key]
[Grade: SSS+(Peak)]
[Description: An artificial demonic void created by Unorthodox Cultivator to trap demonic creatures away. Deep inside is a land of chances but also imminent danger!]
...
[Name: World Travelling Ticket's Piece]
[Type: System's Exclusive]
[Grade: Unknown]
[Description: An incomplete piece of World Travelling Ticket. Gather all the pieces, and you may travel to another world]
...
[Name: Bodhisattva Ancient Tree's Heartwood]
[Type: Heavenly Material]
[Grade: SSS]
[Description: The heartwood of Bodhisattva Ancient Tree, which functions to absorb 'Nature's Energy' and nurture Bodhisattva's Heart. It couldn't get damaged by 'normal' means and has nirvanic power stores inside, making it a superior material to refine artifacts!]
'Nice.' Baek Ain thought with a smile. He wanted to ask about Luo Bingbing's experience with the Tale of Unfinished Samsara earlier, but these rewards made him change his mind.
He could ask her later. For now, they should get the hell out of the floating island, or the Bodhisattva Ancient Tree will suck them into the void.
Baek Ain and Luo Bingbing arrived north of the floating island and saw a group of people fighting each other. He frowned as his senses detected Gu Xun'er surrounded by Hall of Souls' Half-Saints.
"Hold tight." Baek Ain warned Luo Bingbing.
Luo Bingbing's eyes widened, and a smile bloomed on her charming face as she hugged Baek Ain's arm tightly.
[Lightning Calamity Divine Art - Fifth Layer: Void Tribulation]
White lightning surrounded them, making Baek Ain and Luo Bingbing look like Thunder Deities.
BOOM!
A thunderclap echoed throughout the floating island.
...
Gu Xun'er feverishly breathed as she experienced backlash because of the heavy reincarnation from the trial. She just got out, and these people immediately bullied her out of nowhere.
[Thunder Activation Art - First Layer: Lightning Armor]
Gu Xun'er forcibly used the Dou Technique her master taught and caused golden lightning to flicker around her. She pounced forward and slammed her hand against the air.
A massive golden hand appeared and released intense light.
BOOM!
The enemies dodged and laughed at her.
"Hahaha~! Such a weak attack."
"Little girl, hand over the Bodhisattva's Heart right away, and we will take your life mercifully."
"Grr... You guys are shameless!" Gu Xun'er gritted her teeth. She only obtained two Bodhisattva's Seed, one she had already refined for herself in the second trial. However, even if she had the Bodhisattva's Heart, she would never give it to these people.
One black-robed elder stepped out and said, "Miss Xun'er, your life would be easier if you told us everything... Including the Bodhisattva Ancient Tree's treasure in your possession."
"Don't bother to lie. We could detect overflowing energy from you."
"Hall of Souls, are you declaring war against Gu Clan?" Gu Xun'er wanted to use her clan's influence this once.
The black-robed elder laughed, "Pfft, what Hall of Souls? We are from the Brotherhood."
Gu Xun'er cursed inwardly because the black-robed lies as effortlessly as he breathed. If he wasn't from the Hall of Souls, how could he know the Hall of Souls' Dou Techniques?
Did they think she was a fool?
Gu Xun'er hoped her teacher would come and punish these bastards! If this is the past, she would have wished for her Big Brother Xiao Yan to come, but that youth has betrayed her trust.
She closed her eyes and opened them slowly, revealing cold golden eyes with a burning flame inside. Golden Emperor Sky Burning Flame erupted and strengthened her via a secret technique.
Her cultivation soared to the peak of Dou Venerate, tapping into the Half-Saint Realm.
"Fight!" She charged forward.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Gu Xun'er clashed with the Hall of Souls' Masters fiercely, successfully injuring a few of them. Even then, she still couldn't win against them.
She's simply buying time for rescue.
After exchanging blows, Gu Xun'er paled and kneeled on the ground with blood coming from the corner of her lips. She watched the black-robed elder and calmed her breath.
From afar, Gu Xun'er heard a thunderclap sound.
"You will regret this." She said with a smile.
The black-robed elder chuckled and responded, "Who cares? Die, Soul-Snatching Sword!"
Clank!
Before a demonic-looking sword could reach Gu Xun'er, a white spear appeared and stopped its advance. A man in a black robe stepped out of the spatial hole and landed beside Gu Xun'er.
"Am I late?" The man asked calmly.
"No..." Gu Xun'er sighed in relief.
Baek Ain patted Gu Xun'er gently and placed his thick coat over her frail body. He turned around and said, "Leave the rest to me, okay?"
"Mm." Gu Xun'er clutched the warm coat and stared at Baek Ain's broad and muscular back, longing for his presence. Now he arrived at her side, she felt safe again.
Baek Ain pulled Roc's Spine and stared at the black-robed elder coldly.
Upon waking up, Baek Ain is calm and full of positivity. He even accepted Luo Bingbing despite the awkwardness.
But right now, he looks like someone about to end the whole world.
In one of Baek Ain's hundred lives, there is a time when he and Gu Xun'er ended up together. Yet she died once because of the Hall of Souls' evil scheme.
"We meet again, you Hall of Soul's SCUM!" Baek Ain clenched the Roc's Spine and grinned with erupting killing intent, leaving a manifestation of a grim reaper behind.
