Chapter 70 Sudden Crisis
"Oh dear! It's Uncle Bo! You scared me!" Xi'er said, patting her chest.
"Hmph! You know what fear is? When you secretly went to repair the spatial rift, you were bolder than the sky!" Bo Yiyan sneered.
"Hehe! I had no choice, did I? Grandpa Zero had a prophetic dream that said I would go to another world, and he absolutely refused to let me go back to repair the spatial rift."
"But if we don't patch up that spatial rift, there will be a constant stream of otherworldly people and beasts crawling over. I can't even imagine how dangerous that would be!" Xi'er explained with an embarrassed smile.
"Xi'er, do you think you're a savior? Don't forget, you're just a sixteen-year-old girl!"
Back in the Misty Heaven Realm, you were so audacious that you secretly formed a contract with Zi Ling without telling anyone.
He was the vicious leader of the Fiend Clan who invaded the Misty Heaven Realm, and you were just a little girl not even six years old at the time!
Although your decision at the time brought the war between the two races to an early end, saving both sides from further bloodshed.
But that was just luck. The high priest had a long-term vision; he saw your potential and didn't want his people to suffer any more major losses.
But luck can't always be on your side. How can you guarantee that you'll escape unscathed every time you go to repair the spatial rift?
"If anything were to happen to you, how would Xiaobai and Yushan bear the pain? How would all those who love you bear it?" Bo Yiyan said earnestly.
"I'm sorry, Uncle Bo, I was wrong! I really know I was wrong, and I will never do it again!" Xi'er obediently lowered her head and admitted her mistake.
She originally planned to sneak out and come back in a few months, by which time her mother's anger would probably have subsided considerably.
"Well, it's good that you know you're wrong. I'm really afraid that you'll act like a hero again next time."
"You know, even if the sky really falls, everyone will hold it up. You don't need to hold it up all by yourself, little girl. Do you understand?" Bo Yiyan said in a softer tone.
After all, she was the child he had watched grow up from birth, and she was the only woman he had ever truly loved. He truly doted on her like a little princess.
They never give you what you want, and they're reluctant to say a harsh word to you.
"Uncle Bo, no matter what, my mom is really angry this time, and I definitely won't dare to show my face in front of her tonight."
"Please pretend you didn't see me and let me wander around the neighborhood by myself, okay?" Xi'er said with a grin.
"How about this, I'll go for a walk with you, so you don't sneak off again," Bo Yi said.
"Yes, yes, I used up quite a few medicines on this trip, could you please give me some more?" Xi'er nodded quickly.
"Hmph! Even at a time like this, you still can't resist trying to get something from me." Bo Yiyan tapped her forehead with his finger, but still transferred a large pile of potions that he had prepared beforehand into her space.
The two strolled towards the earliest cultivated wasteland, which has now grown into a forest.
Before they knew it, they had arrived at the place where Xiao Bao and Ling Deng had first discovered the underground water source.
The groundwater there had long since dried up, but a stone monument was erected to commemorate the first underground water source they had found.
Bo Yiyan touched the stone tablet and couldn't help but sigh, "Time really flies. Ten years have passed in the blink of an eye!"
“Uncle Bo, my mom once said that when a person starts to reminisce about the past, it means he’s getting old!” Xi’er said with a smile.
"You brat, how dare you mock me for being old? You're asking for a beating!" Bo pretended to flick her forehead, but Xi'er laughed and ran away.
She had only run two steps when she sensed a gust of wind coming from ahead.
Having repaired nine spatial rifts in succession, she immediately realized what was happening:
This is no ordinary wind; it's a spatial gale!
As a seasoned veteran with extensive experience, Bo Yiyan naturally sensed the anomaly.
His first reaction was to summon his contracted plant, Thousand Threads, which instantly unleashed hundreds of vines that entangled Xi'er.
However, this spatial gale is different from any other before; its intensity is at least ten times stronger!
As Bo Yiyan used vines to entangle Xi'er, the three purple demons who were recuperating in her hollowed-out silver sphere space all sensed the fear in their master's emotions.
The three—Endless, Crossroads, and Unjust—simultaneously activated their invincible state and wrapped their true forms around the Thousand-Thread Vines.
However, all of this could not resist the powerful suction of the spatial gale, and Xi'er was involuntarily sucked into it.
Bo Yiyan was also pulled into it by Qian Si. Just when he thought he was going to die in the gale with Xi'er,
The little kitten in Xi'er's palm suddenly grew larger, becoming a giant beast the size of half a room.
Its six small, transparent wings on its back transformed into enormous fleshy wings, fanning out strong winds that withstood the strangling gales.
