Chapter 246: Men Can’t Say No

Is this Spring Male here to gift us his inheritance? An Lin and Xu Xiaolan couldn’t help but develop this suspicion.

In fact, their suspicion was absolutely spot on. Spring Male indeed wanted to gift this inheritance away as soon as possible. Because in doing so, he would finally be able to regain freedom! In his eyes, An Lin and Xu Xiaolan were currently radiating a glow of redemption!!!

Spring Male took out a scroll which had golden symbols flashing upon it. He held it toward Xu Xiaolan and said, “Fated person, you can activate Shen Yin’s pill refinement inheritance simply by dripping your blood essence onto this scroll and injecting your vital energy inside it. Of course, in addition to my acknowledgment, you also need to receive an acknowledgment from Winged Dragon Shen Yin’s wisp of presence which exists in this scroll. Only then can you fully receive this inheritance…”

Xu Xiaolan glanced at An Lin uneasily. The energy fluctuation emanating from this scroll was indeed related to inheritances. However, she couldn’t help but feel uncertain after Spring Male thrust this inheritance before her with such zeal.

An Lin let Gundam One and Gundam Two out from his storage ring. He also transmitted a message to Da Bai and Xiao Chou, who were in their mini forms, telling them to keep a close eye on Spring Male. Only after all this did he nod at Xu Xiaolan.

Seeing An Lin nod for her to continue, Xu Xiaolan followed Spring Male’s instructions and let a drop of her blood essence onto the scroll and also injected her vital energy inside. A thunderous roar suddenly erupted from the scroll, and the projection of a golden dragon slithered out from it and dashed into Xu Xiaolan’s body.

“Xu Xiaolan!” An Lin cried in surprise.

“She’ll be alright,” Spring Male consoled hurriedly, “don’t panic!” Then, with his entire body trembling, he fell to his knees. “It succeeded… This is the indication of the inheritance being successfully passed on!”

In no time, the invisible chains which kept Spring Male shackled suddenly disappeared.

With tears of joy rolling down his cheeks, he raised his head to the sky and roared with laughter. “I’m finally free! Hahahaha…!”

Xu Xiaolan’s eyes glimmered brightly. She looked toward An Lin and said in amazement, “This truly is a real alchemy inheritance. This inheritance can only be fully understood when one reaches the Soul Creation Stage. Also, I have a slight feeling that my Wish Fulfilment Stage is nearing the barrier leading toward the Spirit Gathering Stage…”

“Late Master Shen Yin, please accept this pupil’s salute.” Xu Xiaolan respectfully saluted toward the memorial tablet in the center of the Palace of Spring.

Receiving this inheritance meant that a bond between master and pupil had been formed.

This was in a similar vein to how An Lin lit candles for his system every day.

After a short while, Spring Male finally managed to rein in his emotions.

He wiped away his tears and said to them, “I also have to leave this place now. For us to meet here is a form of fate, so I’ll give you guys an extra word of warning. The Palace of Heaven is extremely dangerous. Although the treasures inside are very captivating, this palace is also the most deadly.”

“You guys are the third group of cultivators to enter this Winter Dragon Tomb. The first two groups didn’t come to my palace, but to the Palace of Heaven. Then, they remained there forever.”

Saying this, Spring Male left. He passed through the door of light and left this dragon tomb once and for all.

An Lin and Xu Xiaolan exchanged a glance. They both knew which palace Spring Male was talking about.

When they first arrived at this mystic realm, what they saw first was not the Palace of Spring which was closest to them. Rather, what captured their attention was the palace furthest away from them.

A divine white glow radiated from that palace, and the word “Heaven” floated above it. This symbolized its supreme might and glory. Seeing this, one couldn’t help but yearn to run over there immediately to visit and worship.

If it wasn’t for An Lin remaining steadfast in his belief of sweeping through such mystic realms methodically, then perhaps the two of them really would have headed straight toward the Palace of Heaven first.

“Let’s just stick to our methodical routine,” An Lin said tensely as he looked toward the Palace of Heaven in the distance.

Xu Xiaolan nodded. The twenty-three floating boulders vaguely formed the image of a coiling dragon. They were at the tail of the dragon right now, and the Palace of Heaven was located at the dragon’s head. If they went through each palace methodically, then it would be quite a while until they reached there.

Just like that, they arrived at the Palace of Summer.

What greeted them was a flaming golden bird which was sprawled on the floor lazily.

“Welcome, fated persons. My name is Summer Bird,” the flaming golden bird said unhurriedly. Its voice was mellow and charming.

After introducing itself, it yawned absent-mindedly.

An Lin grimaced. Say, are these tomb keepers all named so casually?

The flaming bird swept its gaze over the two people and two beasts before it continued, “Do you guys want the flame element inheritance?”

An Lin: “…”

Why is it asking us so directly? Isn’t it going to battle us first before spitting out the inheritance?

“Are you going to give it to us if we say we want it?” An Lin composed himself and raised a question.

“You’re dreaming…” Summer Bird glanced at them and said slowly, “How about this? Strike me with your most impressive attacks. I’ll give the inheritance to whoever beats me up best.”

An Lin: “…”

Xu Xiaolan: “…”

Such an impolite demand! Can we really do this?!

“Da Bai, Xiao Chou, you two go first!” An Lin suddenly yelled.

Seeing that he could beat up another beast, Da Bai was already itching to have a go. What more, the beast that he could beat up was a higher ranked soul beast. After hearing An Lin’s words, he immediately lunged toward Summer Bird. What followed was the violent sounds of a pummeling.

Da Bai fully activated his Heavenly Wolf power, and his paws contained a formidable power as they swatted toward the bird.

Summer Bird squawked as it was drubbed by Da Bai. “Put some power into it! Ouch! Have you not eaten? Are you a male dog or not, hah? Useless male dog, put some power into it…!”

After a long while, Da Bai finally stopped. He was panting heavily from the exertion.

Summer Bird looked extremely unsatisfied. “That’s all?”

Crack…

As if he had received a vicious blow, Da Bai’s heart throbbed violently.

He appeared listless and dejected as he returned to An Lin’s side. He descended into a world of self-doubt and asked, “Big Brother An, do you still have any Emperor Snake Pills? Give me a few of those, yeh? Although I really don’t want to admit my incompetence, but…”

Halfway through this sentence, tears formed in Da Bai’s eyes, and he started sobbing silently.

An Lin: “…”

“Let me try!” Xiao Chou released his Black Flame Domain and walked toward Summer Bird in an aggressive and overbearing manner.

Summer Bird’s dull eyes lit up slightly. “Oh, this one seems alright. It looks quite impressive…”

Without speaking a word, Xiao Chou raised his silver staff and ruthlessly slammed it toward Summer Bird.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

Energy surged about violently, and this was accompanied by Summer Bird’s howls of agony.

“Ahhhhh… It feels so good! Harder!

“Hit here. And here. Up a bit. On neck as well…”

Summer Bird shifted its body and actively received Xiao Chou’s silver staff. The golden flames surrounding its body also danced wildly. These flames appeared to be extremely excited, and they showed no signs of backing down against Xiao Chou’s black flames.

After a short while, Xiao Chou lay down on the floor gasping for breath.

Summer Bird also appeared immensely satisfied. It wriggled its body and mumbled, “The strength of that massage was fairly good. It was much better that shenkui ¹ dog. However, this black flame is in conflict with my flame element inheritance. Such a shame…”

Da Bai received yet another vicious blow, and tears streamed down his face.

Men were most afraid of women saying that they were incompetent. They were even more afraid of women saying that they were even more incompetent when compared to another male.

“Let me try!”

An Lin was already raring to go after having charged up his attacks.

“Mountain Quaking Lightning Fist!”

“Owww…!” Summer Bird squawked tenderly.

“Wind Sword!”

“Ouch! What sword is this? That hurt me~!” Summer Bird squawked tenderly again, and it became increasingly excited. Even the flames surrounding it started to flicker in excitement.

…

After a short while, An Lin lay down on the floor gasping for breath.

Summer Bird looked flirtatiously toward An Lin. It licked the golden blood on its shoulder and said coyly, “You’re such a competent Sword Immortal. What do you need the flame element inheritance for~ I have to say though, you made me feel quite good. It was much better than that male dog.”

Da Bai couldn’t stop his tears from flowing. “Woof! Can you please not mention me every single time? I beg you…”

“I’ll give it a go as well.”

Countless flame dragons burst forth from Xu Xiaolan’s body. As her sword danced, they viciously lunged toward Summer Bird.

Staring at the flame dragons leaping toward it, Summer Bird’s eyes lit up. “This… This is the Divine Phoenix Bloodline!”

Boom!

The flames erupted violently, and Summer Bird’s body shivered within the sea of flames. “Ah… It feels amazing!” it moaned in pleasure. “Such a familiar taste, such a sweet and aggressive taste… Be even more aggressive!”

“As you wish!”

Xu Xiaolan let out a soft cry and a pair of flame wings unfurled behind her.

Her body was like a flaming meteor as she hurtled toward Summer Bird, and her sword projection was shrouded in golden flames as she cut toward this bird.

“Ow~~~!”

Summer Bird cried out in pain as it was struck by this sword projection, and its flaming body collapsed limply to the floor.

Its eyes were shining brightly as it looked at Xu Xiaolan. “Such powerful flames,” it said softly. “This Summer Bird almost wet itself in fright. I like the taste of these flames… Beautiful young lady, you’re the one.

“You can be the one to receive Winter Dragon Tomb’s flame element inheritance…”
