The golden-white sacred light illuminated Ye Guyi's flawless and holy face. Her golden eyes showed no trace of emotional fluctuation.
Ever since leaving the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, she had maintained this indifferent expression.
However, Xu Zihuang knew very well what Ye Guyi was thinking right now. They had grown up together since childhood and were far too familiar with each other. Even after ten years of separation, he could still see traces of her childhood self in her—especially when she was sulking.
The surrounding scenery was rapidly receding behind the two of them. Yet their flying speeds were perfectly matched, maintaining a state of relative stillness.
Xu Zihuang tried to keep his facial expression as calm as possible. Just like when they were children, he proactively reached out and took hold of Ye Guyi's jade-like hand.
"Sister Lingyi…"
Ye Guyi did not forcefully pull away or resist. She merely glanced sideways at Xu Zihuang with a faint, distant look, her red lips slightly parting.
"Zihuang, do you think I'm angry at you?"
Ye Guyi shook her head and continued speaking on her own: "I'm only angry at myself. Before I reunited with you, it was Ning Tian who had been by your side all along. In a sense, I'm actually the latecomer. In the past, the way I deliberately treated her was entirely driven by my possessiveness toward you and my jealousy toward her. All of that was my selfishness. From the very beginning, I was the one who wasn't qualified."
Xu Zihuang immediately opened his mouth, momentarily speechless. He hadn't expected Ye Guyi to say something like this.
"Besides, this is actually for the best. Now that Ning Tian has your child, the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect will be bound to us forever in the future." At this point, a somewhat sickly and inexplicable smile appeared on Ye Guyi's delicate face.
"Most importantly, for nearly the next year, your body will belong completely to me alone."
Xu Zihuang's expression instantly stiffened. Looking at Ye Guyi's sickly smile, he felt a chill run through his entire body.
What Ye Guyi said was clearly not a joke; she spoke it in the calm tone of stating a fact.
At that moment, the smile in Ye Guyi's eyes suddenly vanished, and her expression became much more serious.
"Zihuang, how confident are you in dealing with that Dark Demon Evil God Tiger?"
"Although the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger race is powerful, our martial souls' abilities can greatly restrain it. Even without counting that Sacred Unicorn, with just the two of us, we should have more than an eighty percent chance of suppressing it." Seeing that Ye Guyi had shifted to serious matters, Xu Zihuang finally breathed a sigh of relief. He quickly took control of the conversation, fearing she might bring up those other topics again.
"Before that, Sister Lingyi, let me first explain in detail the innate abilities of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger. First and foremost, you need to pay special attention to…"
…
In the northern part of the Dou Ling Empire, the Lingbei Great Grassland.
This was the birthplace of the Scaled-horn Horse soul beasts. Legends said that the Scaled-horn Horse carried a trace of the bloodline of the super soul beast Unicorn. Now, judging from the existence of that Sacred Unicorn, such legends might not have been baseless.
In the night sky above.
Behind the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, its massive Evil God Hook slowly rose and swayed gently. With each swing, it trailed a series of distorted, strange gray halos in the air. The evil-filled gray energy poured into the domain it had released, causing the temperature of the surrounding space to seem to drop significantly.
The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's pair of sinister blood-red eyes was filled with intense greed.
The Sacred Unicorn, before it had a cultivation exceeding three hundred thousand years. As long as it could devour it, it would surely break through to the hundred-thousand-year level in an extremely short time.
Although the Sacred Unicorn possessed an extremely noble bloodline, its abilities leaned toward support and healing, similar to the Emerald Swan clan's Bi Ji. Despite having a cultivation of over three hundred thousand years, in terms of direct combat power, it was even inferior to some combat-oriented hundred-thousand-year soul beasts.
This was also why the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger dared to act so brazenly. If not for the Sacred Unicorn's sacred attribute being particularly troublesome, it would probably have succeeded long ago.
In the next instant, the tranquility of the Lingbei Great Grassland at night was shattered once more.
A flash of red light passed through the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's eyes. Its wings on its back suddenly spread wide and flapped forcefully. In an instant, countless beams of black light surged forth, transforming into hundreds of foot-long blades that rose into the air, sealing off all directions of the Sacred Unicorn's movement.
The Sacred Unicorn likewise flapped the pair of pure white wings behind it. Holy radiance flashed on the horn on its forehead. As strange runes flickered, a layer of golden-white shield enveloped its streamlined and graceful body.
However, the shield formed from the sacred attribute's holy radiance began to develop cracks under the erosion of those black light blades, and soon shattered with a boom.
This clash turned out to be evenly matched.
The seemingly unremarkable black wind blades of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger were actually a fusion of wind and extreme evil attributes. Relying on the powerful cutting force of wind combined with the formidable corrosion of evil, it compensated for the gap in cultivation between them.
Moreover, what the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger possessed was not ordinary, but the ultimate extreme evil attribute. In terms of attributes, it actually held a slight edge over the Sacred Unicorn.
After all, the Sacred Unicorn's sacred attribute had not yet reached true extremity. Only the god-level martial soul, Six-winged Angel, inherited from the descendants of the original Angel God, possessed sacred attributes on the same level as the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's extreme evil.
The Sacred Unicorn raised its head and let out a high-pitched neigh, staring fixedly at the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger opposite it like a cornered beast.
It had already been targeted and worn down by the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger for some time. Continuing like this would only make its position increasingly passive. Unfortunately, its speed could not match that of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, which possessed wind and space attributes, and it lacked any overwhelmingly powerful killing moves, making escape impossible.
Just then, a scene suddenly appeared in the Sacred Unicorn's mind, causing its body to tremble slightly.
That was from ten thousand years ago.
After the original Angel God ascended to divinity using the faith power of the continent's living beings, another exceptionally talented genius later emerged in the Angel Clan. After passing through numerous trials, this genius ultimately inherited the position of Angel God.
Unfortunately, that one ultimately had their god position shattered during the divine war. Out of gratitude for the original Angel God's grace, it took that one into seclusion here, avoiding the fate of being purged by the Tian Dou and Xing Luo Empires at the time.
And in the fifth year after that divine war ended, two mysterious individuals precisely located them.
These two, one male, one female, were both in their twenties. The cold and stern young man had black hair and purple eyes, while the cool and aloof woman had golden hair and golden eyes.
What struck the Sacred Unicorn as extremely strange was that although the young man and woman were clearly standing right in front of it back then, and it could vividly see their faces, there was always an inexplicable sense of distance. It felt as though they were separated by an invisible boundary across time and space.
At that time, the young man and woman had a deep conversation with the one it was protecting. It did not know the specifics of what they discussed. It only remembered that before leaving, the young man said something inexplicable to it.
"In ten thousand years, you will encounter a calamity brought by another soul beast. And at that time, we will meet again."
The Sacred Unicorn murmured in its heart with a slightly low, feminine voice, unconsciously repeating the two sentences the young man had said.
The first sentence had now come true. Then what about the second?
Just as this thought arose in the Sacred Unicorn's mind, a sudden change occurred.
A flash of purple-golden light passed by, and the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's massive body slammed heavily into the ground.
A black-haired, purple-eyed youth stood proudly in midair, holding a long, black spear with its tip pointed forward. Immediately after, a golden-haired woman with three pairs of sacred white wings spread behind her, gracefully descended beside the youth.
It was none other than Xu Zihuang and Ye Guyi, who had arrived just in time.
Seeing this scene before it, the Sacred Unicorn's gaze instantly froze. Its eyes were filled with shock and uncertainty, filled with disbelief, yet also with a feeling that everything was perfectly logical.
