Chapter 2113: The Sage Awakens on the Altar VS the Tomb-Raiding Woman (Part 8)

As the devoted follower of Aunt Huang Tian, Ancestor Huang He naturally prepared everything she needed with great speed.

Gu Shengyin breathed a sigh of relief and began her retreat of indefinite duration.

She woke up again at the system’s prompt.

"Host, there’s a change in the situation. The target of your mission isn’t dead," the system’s voice seemed somewhat surprised as well.

Gu Shengyin frowned, "What happened?"

On that day, she delivered a thunderous strike. Even though her power had greatly diminished, an all-out strike from a Demi-God Warrior was not something a Xuan Sect member like Chen Xiaoxiao could withstand.

Moreover, at that time, by observing her aura, Chen Xiaoxiao was unquestionably dead beyond any doubt.

The system answered, "It seems Chen Xiaoxiao practiced a certain secret technique, as long as her blood and flesh are not completely eradicated, there is a chance for her to revive again."

Blood and flesh not completely eradicated?

At that time, Gu Shengyin only struck her dead, and Chen Xiaoxiao’s blood certainly did not disappear.

Could it be that she survived because of this?

Inside, Gu Shengyin felt a trace of disgust; this kind of clearly unreasonable method would definitely not be a legitimate cultivation technique.

That Chen Xiaoxiao most likely cultivated an Evil Path cultivation technique.

With Chen Xiaoxiao’s vengeful nature, once she becomes strong, she will surely return to seek revenge on the Phoenix Family clan.

Gu Shengyin’s eyes turned cold, "Then I’ll just kill her again!"

So what if she’s not dead? As a demigod, Gu Shengyin had now gained the advantage.

A mere Xuan Sect member, could she actually be afraid of her?

Gu Shengyin stood up.

Now, she was mostly alright; it was just that her body occasionally felt a sense of obstruction with the flow of Mystic Qi.

She knew the reason for this; it was merely the result of sleeping for too long, causing a certain degree of degradation in her meridians and bones.

There are two options: slowly nurture the body back to health over time.

Or, require the aid of some Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.

The former takes too long, while for the latter, Gu Shengyin had already found a good place.

She went to find Huang He.

"You’re going out?" Ancestor Huang He was quite surprised.

Gu Shengyin nodded, "I want to see, after these thousands of years, what the Tianxuan Continent has become."

She did not speak about her physical condition. Firstly, some things were not suitable for others to know. Although Huang He appeared close to her, they were still separated by thousands of years, so she had to keep her guard up.

Secondly, she didn’t want to worry him.

Huang He evidently felt a bit reluctant, but seeing Gu Shengyin’s manner, he didn’t say anything.

"Then on the day Aunt returns, our Phoenix Family clan will hold a grand celebration to welcome back Aunt’s return," Elder Huang He was somewhat excited. He wanted to announce to the entire Tianxuan Continent that the legendary figure of thousands of years ago, the Great Sage Huang Tian of the Phoenix Family clan, has returned!

The Phoenix Family clan has added another Mystic Saint warrior. This will undoubtedly stir a wave among the top-tier families.

The Phoenix Family clan has been low-key for too long!

Gu Shengyin could more or less guess his thoughts and did not decline his intention.

This was beneficial for the Phoenix Family clan.

And Huang Tian herself had spent her whole life striving to make the Phoenix Family clan stronger.

She would not give up on her ideals.

In the dead of night, a white figure quietly left the Phoenix Family clan’s mansion.

Those aware of Huang Tian’s presence assumed she was still in retreat; those unaware didn’t need to be mentioned.

So for this journey, apart from Huang He, no one else knew.

Gu Shengyin’s purpose was simple: go to the Extreme Southern Land to find the Vermilion Bird Fire to refine her body, and in passing, once again eliminate Chen Xiaoxiao, who was hiding in the South.
