Chapter 1388: Successful Mission Completion
An Lin could see that Yang Lingqian was extremely reluctant to part with him.
He flicked her on the forehead with a teasing smile. “Stop being such a little coward! This world will be fine without me. Furthermore, the Four Nine Immortal Palace has over a hundred Return to Void Stage exalted immortals and seven exalted immortals at the Return to Void Pinnacle Stage among their ranks, so what are you afraid of?”
Yang Lingqian pouted as she looked at An Lin with her shimmering eyes. “But you’re our spiritual leader...”
“Oi oi, you’re one of the eight cabinet ministers now, you need to grow up!” An Lin spoke with a serious expression.
“Alright...” Yang Lingqian nodded lightly. She didn’t want to let An Lin go, but she knew she couldn’t make him stay.
The eight cabinet ministers were the most powerful people in the Four Nine Immortal Palace below An Lin himself, and they consisted of He Shen, Yan Ji, Wang Chen, Sun Biyu, Luo Yan, Yan Shuqin, Yang Lingqian, and Peng Yuan. They were responsible for discussing and making decisions on significant events and were mostly comprised of top-grade exalted immortals at the Return to Void Pinnacle Stage.
Yang Lingqian was like an adorable little husky dog who just so managed to become one of them, and she was completely out of place there, but everyone respected her opinions.
This little husky dog had the support of the White-Robed Exalted Immortal, so they had no choice but to listen to her!
When Yang Lingqian’s father, Yang Zheng, discovered that his daughter had become one of the eight cabinet ministers of the Four Nine Immortal Palace, he almost fell off his chair with fright before immediately bowing to a portrait of the White-Robed Exalted Immortal a few times and thanking his ancestors for the luck they had bestowed upon his daughter.
Never would he have thought that the exalted immortal he had had a coincidental encounter with a few months ago would rise to such dizzying heights. He even took his daughter along with him during his rise.
Yang Zheng told his daughter repeatedly over voice transmission talisman to repay the White-Robed Exalted Immortal for what he had done for her.
Yang Lingqian would love to do that, but she had no opportunity! The White-Robed Exalted Immortal’s cultivation base was unfathomably powerful. He was filthy, stinking rich, and he could pretty much have any women he wanted all over the continent. How was she supposed to repay a man who had everything?
She almost burst into tears with this in mind. An Lin probably wouldn’t accept her if she threw herself at him. After all, he had sent away over six hundred beauties who were willing to stay by his side, including the exquisitely beautiful Yan Shuqin.
Yang Zheng was quite resigned upon hearing this. He told his daughter that perhaps the best way to repay the White-Robed Exalted Immortal would be to do her job diligently as a cabinet minister and create a better world...
Ever since a new master had ascended to the top of the Divine Source Continent, all mortals were much happier and cultivating living beings were flourishing.
Countless sects came out of forced hibernation.
All types of prodigiously talented female cultivators began to pop up all over the continent now that they were in a world where they were free to express themselves and show off their aptitudes.
Within a short three months, the title of the White-Robed Exalted Immortal was renowned all over the world.
However, just when his name and status had reached a peak, the White-Robed Exalted Immortal suddenly announced that he was going into seclusion in order to make a breakthrough.
The extremely renowned Happy Pill Demon King Yi Xi was also going into seclusion with him.
This announcement shook the entire continent.
No one knew just how long An Lin was going into seclusion for, but by now, the Four Nine Immortal Palace had well and truly established itself, so it would continue to enforce all of the good work he had done, even in his absence.
On the Immortal King Palace’s heaven and earth altar, a woman stood in a gorgeous red dress.
The two men standing before her were the legendary White-Robed Exalted Immortal and the Happy Pill Demon King.
“Three months have passed in the blink of an eye.” An Lin sighed with emotion.
“You make it sound like three months is a very long time! I was afraid at that time that even a year would not be enough!” Yi Xi rolled his eyes.
An Lin shook his head. “I initially planned to take care of business in three days at most.”
If it weren’t for the system’s stupid mission, he would’ve been done here a long time ago.
Even though it took a long time after that to establish the Four Nine Immortal Palace and restore a new and better order to the entire continent, the result was a good one, so it was well worth the effort.
Yi Xi: “We can activate the teleportation energy within our bodies now to travel between the two worlds.”
This energy had a use-by period of one year.
However, they could choose to activate it before that time limit was up and go back in advance.
When An Lin and Yi Xi both activated the energy within their bodies, a summoning power fell from the sky.
Boom boom!
A scintillating golden light enshrouded both of them.
“Exalted Immortal An Lin, you have to make sure to come back often! I’ll be waiting for you at the Four Nine Immortal Palace,” Yang Lingqian yelled in a loud voice in fear that An Lin would not be able to hear her.
“Do your best and become a strong, independent woman!” An Lin offered an encouraging smile.
Yang Lingqian nodded, and she was struggling to repress her tears as she looked at the White-Robed Exalted Immortal. She took a deep breath before walking toward him. “Um, Exalted Immortal An Lin, I... Can I hug you?”
She had almost used up all of her courage to utter those words.
She looked up with teary eyes at the man enshrouded within the golden light.
An Lin faltered slightly before opening his arms with a smile.
Yang Lingqian immediately dove into An Lin’s arms, but she only managed to feel his warmth for a split second before he dissipated into specks of golden light.
She stood rooted to the spot, looking at the empty space before her, at a loss for what to do.
She suddenly felt a sense of warmth coming from her wrists.
Yang Lingqian looked down at her beautiful crimson immortal-rank bracelets, and a faint smile appeared on her face. “I’m going to work hard and cultivate. If my cultivation base is too low, I probably wouldn’t even be able to live until your next visit, right?”
Within the White Nectar Sea.
A massive vortex suddenly appeared.
The formation tremored violently.
There was an old man lying on a little sea turtle, taking a nap, and he suddenly opened his eyes as his expression was lit up with excitement. “They’re back after just three months? I wonder if they have completed their mission.”
He took a step forward, and his body instantly moved over a hundred kilometers into the air above the massive jellyfish deep within the White Nectar Sea, where he looked down with a tense yet exciting expression at the spatial gate between the two worlds.
This was the Heavenly Lord of Dao and Virtue, an extraordinarily powerful being who transcended beyond the entire Tai Chu Continent, yet he was rubbing his hands together like an eager child. The success or failure of this mission could very well determine the fate of an entire continent, so his reaction was not unwarranted.
Soon, two familiar figures emerged from the gate.
“Mr. An Lin, Yi Xi, I’m so glad you’re both ok!” An elated smile appeared on the Heavenly Lord of Dao and Virtue’s face, and he stroked his snowy-white beard with his eyes narrowed into a wrinkled slit from the wide smile on his face.
The two of them looked to be in a good mental and physical state, so there was a very good chance that they had completed their mission.
“Master, we did it!” Yi Xi laughed heartily.
“Heavenly Lord of Dao and Virtue, we were able to complete our mission.” An Lin extended a respectful salute.
“It was all thanks to Brother An Lin that we were able to get there in the end. He slew a Dao Integration Stage super mighty figure by himself! Otherwise, we wouldn’t have been able to complete the mission!” Yi Xi spoke with excitement and reverence shimmering in his eyes as he looked at An Lin.
“Hahaha... That’s fantastic!” The Heavenly Lord of Dao and Virtue chuckled elatedly.
At this moment, a rainbow divine light suddenly shone from the bottom of the ocean.
An extremely enticing voice sounded from the sky above.
“Why don’t you come up to my room so that we can all talk in a more comfortable setting?”
An Lin was struck by a sense of comfort and bliss upon hearing this voice, as if he were listening to the voice of the mother of all humans.
“Alright, let’s head up to Nuwa’s boudoir!” The Heavenly Lord of Dao and Virtue was in a very good mood, and he turned to An Lin and Yi Xi with a sly smile on his face.
