The most annoying thing was that, unlike his main body, which only caused tribulation clouds without lightning, the Heretic God body would attract nine heavenly tribulations, each one loud, flashy, and time-consuming. The entire process would stir up a storm across the Divine Region.
He was suffering from success.
That being said, Yun Wuji had plans for this too. The first and safest option was to head straight to the God Realm of Absolute Beginning. There wouldn't be many people in that place, and he also had the protection of his new slaves, the Dragons of Absolute Beginning.
The second, more obvious choice, was to find a remote and uninhabited location to undergo the tribulation in peace.
However, Yun Wuji had another idea, why not use this chance to grind down the pride of this fallen Goddess even more?
In fact, if he brought her to his main body, with the force backing him and a mix of soft and hard tactics, convincing her would be all too easy.
However, he couldn't do that at the moment, he was already busy with his main body. Just yesterday, he had left the Snow Song Realm with Mu Xuanyin, heading toward the Western Divine Region… to meet another woman.
Yun Wuji turned to Qianye Ying'er, who was once again following him and had just stopped mid-air. "Do you know what you look like right now?"
The corner of Qianye Ying'er's eye twitched. Just from his expression alone, she could tell he was about to say something nasty, but still, she replied, "What?"
"A perverted stalker," Yun Wuji said slowly, eyeing her with open disdain. He couldn't help but feel a little strange. Why were all the female Divine Masters he met either stalkers or perverts?
Jasmine was a peeping pervert who wanted to play the rape game with him. Mu Xuanyin was a full-blown stalker. Luo Guxie had been lusting after his body the moment their eyes met. Hua Jin? Another sneaky stalker. And Chi Wuyao, she wasn't just a pervert, she was a massive, obsessive one.
"…" Qianye Ying'er took a deep breath. Surprisingly, she calmed her annoyance more easily than before. It almost felt like she was getting used to being insulted by him.
Wait a minute... Why does it feel like she is being trained by him?!
"Can you please stop following me? You're a huge moving target. Who knows when a bunch of Brahma Kings will suddenly drop out of the sky on me because of you?" Yun Wuji said, pointing his index finger at her, completely unaware of the inner drama playing out in her head.
As he spoke, silver light swept over his body, and when it faded, his appearance changed completely. He was now slightly shorter, with red hair and red eyes. He looked less handsome than his original appearance, but still very handsome.
He looked like a teenager, with a sunny, youthful face and shining red eyes.
Qianye Ying'er watched his transformation with calm detachment. Compared to his other outrageous abilities, this one seemed too ordinary. Not to mention, she already knew about this skill; he had used it to hide from her back in the Holy Eaves Realm. A smile slowly curled on her lips. "I don't understand what you're talking about. I'm just heading in the same direction as you."
"Though, what would happen if people suddenly misunderstood and thought we were together?"
"Yun Wuji, you don't want to be captured by the Brahma Monarch God Realm, do you?"
"..." Yun Wuji was left speechless by her shamelessness. He glanced at her helplessly and asked, "What do you want?"
"You know, I can kill you at any time, but I'm generous enough to overlook your actions." Qianye Ying'er didn't answer his question right away. Instead, she twirled a strand of her golden hair around her finger. "We're both being chased by the Brahma Realm, so why not work together? I'll help you grow and protect you. When you're strong enough to deal with them, my only request is that you let me land the final blow on that dog Fantian."
Her offer and attitude seemed reasonable, even appealing. If it were anyone else, they might have accepted without a second thought. But Yun Wuji didn't. He didn't need her help. Even if she fully recovered from her injuries, her strength would only reach the 5th level of the Divine Master Realm. Any of the Dragons of Absolute Beginning he had enslaved could surpass her. More importantly, Yun Wuji still held a grudge against her.
On the other hand, he was her only real hope.
To her, his help was the only path forward, while to him, hers was expendable.
"I can see your sincerity," Yun Wuji said, no longer looking at her with disgust. His tone was mild, but then he shook his head. "Daga Kotowaru!"
"..." Qianye Ying'er nearly stumbled and fell from the sky. Why did his answer feel so familiar? Did this guy just take the chance to get back at her for rejecting him?
"Why are you so stubborn?" Qianye Ying'er sighed and asked, unable to understand why he was so firm in his attitude. She hesitated for a moment and spoke, "If I allowed you to do the same things I did to you back then, would you accept my offer?"
Since the source of his hatred toward her stemmed from the torture she inflicted and the disfigurement of his face, if she allowed him to do the same to her, his anger would likely fade significantly. After all, who would dare dream of disfiguring the Lady Goddess, one of the two most beautiful women in the entire universe?
'It seems my actions still had an effect,' Qianye Ying'er may not have noticed, but Yun Wuji did. Compared to her previous attitude toward him, she had become much milder in both her actions and words.
"No," Yun Wuji refused again. He had already promised himself to make her his slave, and he was a man of his word, even when it came to his own promises. "Frankly, I never took your Brahma Monarch God Realm seriously. They're not even in my top 3 forces I need to get rid of."
If it wasn't because he didn't want to alert the Western Divine Region and cause them to interfere, he would've already attacked the Eastern Divine Region by now, and wouldn't even need to wait for Luo Guxie and Jasmine.
However, if the Dragon God Realm were to interfere, even if he used the entire strength of the Eastern Divine Region, he would completely lose.
Back then, in the novel, the Dragon Monarch alone required half of the combined forces from the three regions to hold him off, including the three Yama ancestors and the two Brahma ancestors as well.
Yun Wuji didn't care if his words sounded like bragging to her. He turned around once again and flew away.
Qianye Ying'er let out a long sigh and followed him. As she stared at his back, she couldn't help but feel his words were true, she did look like a stalker right now. She smiled self-deprecatingly. In such a short time, she had fallen from the lofty Brahma Goddess, the future God Emperor, to a lowly woman seeking help from a man.
Both of them flew at a moderate speed, and in a short time, they left the wilderness. As they did, Yun Wuji stopped and spoke, "I won't waste my breath asking you to stop following me this time, but could you at least cover up your identity?"
Even with half her face concealed, she remained the undisputed center of attention wherever she went. The mere glimpse of her lower face, those perfectly shaped lips, that delicate jawline, was enough to make men's knees weaken. She was like a glowing torch in the darkness, drawing in moths to her flame.
"I don't have any. All my profound skills can only be used with the Brahma Divine Power," Qianye Ying'er replied indifferently. After losing her divine power, she could only use pure profound energy.
Aside from some insignificant skills, the only profound technique she had left was the Blood Escape he had taught her.
"What are you going to do then?" Yun Wuji's cheek twitched, he rubbed his forehead and asked, his depressed look was as if he was dealing with a troublesome kid.
"Don't you have one?" Qianye Ying'er tucked her hair behind her ear and glanced at him with a smile. "You just said it earlier. You don't want the Brahma Realm to suddenly descend upon you, right?"
"Fuck!" Yun Wuji nearly fell mid-air, his eyes widened as he pointed at her. "You... You... Where did you learn to be this shameless?!"
"Who knows, perhaps from a certain someone," she shot him a glance and mimicked his action, shrugging her shoulders.
In the end, it was once again proven that shameless people are invincible, and Yun Wuji succumbed to her, using his skill to change her appearance. Qianye Ying'er's look completely transformed; she became a black-haired beauty with very short hair reaching her ears, black eyes, and her once unforgettably perfect features now altered to be 'uglier,' though she still looked like a decent beauty.
"You can't leave my sight, or the skill will lose its effect," Yun Wuji glanced at her and warned..
Qianye Ying'er pulled out a mirror and looked at herself. She frowned slightly upon seeing how 'ugly' she had become, but more importantly, her golden hair had turned black. If there was something she still cherished, it was undoubtedly her golden hair, for she had inherited it from her deceased mother.
...
A few days later, Yun Wuji and Qianye Ying'er reached a city. After traveling for this period, they learned where they were.
They were still in the Eastern Divine Region, which was bad news for them. The realm they were in now was the Sword Burial Realm, a middle-star realm.
The people here were specialized in sword arts.
"Where are we going next?" After entering the city, Qianye Ying'er glanced at him and asked.
"It's me, not we," Yun Wuji snorted at her, but still replied, "The Gaze Eternity Realm."
The Gaze Eternity Realm is a Middle Rank Star Realm located near the Eternal Heaven God Realm. It is the realm where Southern Sea Realm's Crown Prince, Nan Qianqiu, massacred the wood spirits.
Yun Wuji didn't have any relationship with them and owed them nothing, but honestly, he pitied them. This race had lived such a miserable life, hunted like exotic animals, to the point that they had become completely extinct in the Southern Divine Region.
As for the Royal Wood Spirits, their situation was even worse. The only remaining ones in the entire Primal Chaos were He Ling's family.
