ATG: My genius is almost frightening!-Chapter 215 - 214: Tribulation
Chapter 215 - 214: Tribulation
In the entirety of the God Realm, if one were to speak of the most luminous star realm, it would undoubtedly be the Star God Realm. It's bright and beautiful starlight is visible to all, no matter where they stand in the Eastern Divine Region.
Today, the Star God Realm was visited by an important figure in the Eastern Divine Region, Luo Guxie.
"Fairy Guxie, please wait. The lord elder will see you shortly," a Star Guardian said respectfully after leading her into the guest hall, before bowing and taking his leave.
Although Luo Guxie was the strongest outside of the King Realms, she still wasn't qualified to be personally received by a Star God. Not to mention, all the Star Gods had important roles to fulfill. Usually, only four Star Gods remained in the Star God Realm, while the others were either supervising their subordinate realms or carrying out other important duties, such as intelligence gathering, assassination, espionage, sabotage, or even hunting profound beasts in the God Realm of Absolute Beginning.
In short, Star Gods were exceedingly busy. Ever since they gained the power of Star Gods, they were bound to serve the Star God Realm with all their strength. The only exception to this rule was Jasmine. The Star God Emperor was particularly lenient toward her.
No one objected to this exception, however, as they all knew the reason behind it.
However, even then, Luo Guxie was still a mighty 9th level Divine Master, and the Star God Realm was not dumb enough to offend her without reason. Naturally, to avoid insulting her dignity, a Divine Master would be tasked with receiving her. And the only Divine Masters outside of the Star Gods themselves were the Elders.
In the Star God Realm, there were 37 Elders, all of whom were Divine Masters, and their status was second only to the 12 Star Gods.
Tap, tap, tap.
In the hall, Luo Guxie did not sit down. Instead, she paced back and forth, the sound of her heels echoing through the silent hall, reflecting her anxious and troubled state of mind. One hand was clenched tightly, while she bit the fingers of the other, so hard that blood began to drip from them.
"Greetings, Fairy Guxie," a voice called out at this moment. From the hall's entrance, a man walked in. He was a tall, middle-aged figure with a powerfully muscular build. His robe clung tightly to his body, strained by the explosive muscles beneath. Yet, despite his intimidating appearance, he wore a warm and amiable smile on his face.
"Elder Xing!" Luo Guxie saw the elder and greeted him politely. Without wasting time on pleasantries, she cut straight to the point, "I've come uninvited to your esteemed realm today to see the Heavenly Slaughter Star God. Could you please inform her?"
"You wish to see Her Highness, the princess?" Elder Xing's smile froze, replaced by surprise.
"Yes, I have something important to discuss with her," Luo Guxie replied.
"This..." Elder Xing forced a smile and shook his head. "It's not that I don't want you to meet her, but unfortunately, Her Highness left the Star God Realm more than two months ago and has yet to return."
"She's not here?!" Luo Guxie exclaimed anxiously. Her expression immediately dimmed. She forced a smile and added, "Thank you for your help, Elder. Since Heavenly Slaughter Star God is not here, I will not impose on your esteemed realm any longer."
After parting with the Star Elder, Luo Guxie left the Star God Realm, cursing under her breath, "Damn it! Where did that girl go?!" She was growing increasingly anxious to rescue Yun Wuji from the clutches of that woman. Who knew how much pain he was enduring right now? With that woman's usual poisonous methods, he must've been suffering greatly each day!
But then, she suddenly froze, thinking, "Wait, Elder Xing mentioned that the Heavenly Slaughter Star God left the Star God Realm two months ago. Counting the time, that's also when Yang'er's wanted poster began circulating across the Eastern Divine Region."
"Could it be that she went searching for him?!"
"Fuck! How am I going to find her now? Should I wait outside the Star God Realm until she appears?"
"No, if I linger around the Star God Realm, it might cause a misunderstanding and provoke the Star Gods."
"What should I do? What should I do?!"
"Yang'er..."
The failure to meet Jasmine was a huge blow to Luo Guxie. She flew aimlessly, trying to figure out a way to rescue Yun Wuji.
When she finally stopped, she found herself hovering above a valley.
The valley was empty, and at its center stood a tombstone. This was the forgotten valley of the Ning Clan.
Unconsciously, Luo Guxie had flown for days, and without realizing it, she had arrived at the place where she had first met Yun Wuji.
Staring blankly at the ground below, Luo Guxie slowly descended. In the past, whenever she came to this place, she would spend a long time praying in front of Ning Danqing's tomb.
But this time, it was different.
Luo Guxie ignored the tomb and landed precisely where Yun Wuji had fallen from the sky. Her gaze fell blankly upon the ground, her eyes dim and lifeless. Her chest tightened, her breaths growing shorter and more labored. Even as a Divine Master, the intense emotions began to suffocate her, stealing the air from her lungs. Suddenly, she clutched her chest with both hands and collapsed to her knees.
Drip! Drip!
Her head hung low, her body trembling as tears slipped from her cheeks, falling softly to the barren ground. In this desolate expanse, the strongest figure in the Eastern Divine Region, Fairy Guxie, the 9th-level Divine Master, stood broken, weeping like a helpless child.
...
At the same time, in the Azure Cloud Realm.
Above Azure Grove City, the city where Yun Wuji's Heretic God body had first appeared, a woman stood high in the sky, looking down with a deep frown.
Her crimson hair cascaded like a river of blood, and her eyes that glowed like blood-red rubies. Her figure was a masterpiece of nature, curves that flowed like a sculptor's dream, with a plump chest and wide, tempting hips that contrasted against her slender waist. She was dressed in a dark red dress, and though her expression was cold and indifferent, it did nothing to diminish her exquisite beauty.
Naturally, this woman was Jasmine. She had been tracking Yun Wuji's movements all this time, but so far, the only lead she managed to find was this place, the first location where he had appeared as the Heretic God body.
It seemed that, even though he had changed his appearance when he first appeared, Jasmine still managed to track down this place. One could say that after spending more than two years with him, Jasmine understood him better than anyone else.
"Where the hell is this bastard?" Jasmine muttered under her breath, growing more frustrated. She was worried that he might end up in Qianye Yinger's hands before she could find him.
Little did she know, he was already captured by her.
...
Two weeks later, Brahma Monarch God Realm.
Just as Yun Wuji had expected, nothing major had happened in the Brahma Monarch God Realm. Although Qianye Ying'er's blood was boiling with fury and her bones cold with bone-chilling hatred, she hadn't stupidly rushed to confront her father.
Instead, she had stayed in seclusion these past days to calm her emotions. If she were to meet her father in her current state, there was no telling what she might do; she could easily lose control and attack him on the spot, which would undoubtedly end up in a tragedy.
The Brahma Soul Bell, the medium through which the core divine powers of the Brahma Monarch God Realm were passed down, had the ability to forcibly strip away the powers of its inheritors and cripple them.
So, even if Qianye Ying'er were ten times stronger, she would still lose to her father because he could easily strip away all of her divine power.
In the palace, Yue Ying stood silently outside a cultivation room. Having been tasked with attending to Yun Wuji, she had been relieved of all her other roles and duties. Of course, her current role wasn't just to tend to Yun Wuji's needs, she was also there to monitor him. If he were to try anything suspicious, this big-breasted beauty would be more than happy to give him some extra... care.
Yue Ying's tranquil expression suddenly changed, and she subconsciously straightened her back. In the next moment, the space in front of her rippled, and from it emerged the figure of Qianye Ying'er. Yue Ying immediately knelt to the ground and said, "My Lady!"
"Hmm, where is that man?" Qianye Ying'er glanced at her, then at the door behind her, and asked.
"Young Master Fei is currently cultivating. Before entering, he informed me that he would be going into deep meditation and did not wish to be disturbed," Yue Ying replied, not daring to rise without permission. She remained kneeling as she reported, then asked, "Do you want me to inform him?"
Her master was Qianye Ying'er, and when it came to her wishes, Yun Wuji's orders would immediately be reduced to less than shit.
"No, I'll wait," Qianye Ying'er shook her head. She then turned around and walked away, leaving an utterly shocked Yue Ying petrified on the ground.

Yue Ying had served her Lady for most of her life, and throughout this time, aside from her royal father, she had never witnessed or even heard of Qianye Ying'er being this 'considerate' toward anyone, much less a 'lowly' man. This was the first time her Lady had deigned to wait for a man, and not just any man, but a nameless Divine Tribulation Realm cultivator at that!
"What the hell is going on? Is the world finally coming to an end?" Yue Ying slowly stood up, her eyes fixed on the door behind her as she muttered under her breath.
Qianye Ying'er walked into the garden, surrounded by a sea of colorful flowers. Her head hung low, her gaze seemingly fixed on the blossoms beneath her.
After her conversation with Yun Wuji the last time, she had subconsciously begun to view him quite differently from other 'lowly' men. Though he was merely a weakling at the 3rd level of the Divine Tribulation Realm, he was shrouded in countless mysteries, possessing godly skills and abilities that defied reason.
Of course, at this moment, she still hadn't fully sensed her own unusual attitude toward him.
"What is this?" Qianye Ying'er raised her head and looked at the sky. Suddenly, dark clouds began to gather across the vast sky of the Brahma Monarch God Realm, bringing with them an oppressive might. The pressure was so immense that even she couldn't help but shiver. "Is this a Tribulation cloud? Is someone breaking through to the Divine Spirit Realm?"
"Is it him?" Qianye Ying'er glanced toward Yun Wuji's cultivation room, a thought crossing her mind. But she quickly dismissed it. The last time she saw him, he was only at the 3rd level of the Divine Tribulation Realm. There was no way he could have reached the 9th level in such a short time. More importantly, she could clearly sense that the target of this tribulation wasn't here. So it can't be him.
Far away, in a certain star realm, Luo Guxie also looked up at the sky and frowned. The dark clouds were gathering at an incomprehensible speed, blotting out the heavens in her vision. "A Tribulation Cloud? Is someone nearby trying to break through? It's none of my business. I need to find that little girl first." Though surprised, she didn't dwell on it. For her, the most pressing matter was finding Jasmine to save Yun Wuji.
At the same time, Jasmine was also startled by the clouds that filled her vision. "This Tribulation is unusual. It's covering such a vast area, only someone with unparalleled talent could cause such a commotion. Who could it be?" She narrowed her eyes, muttering to herself.
Suddenly, her eyes widened as a thought struck her. "Wait... could it be Wuji?!"
Without a moment's delay, she rushed toward the source of the Tribulation Clouds. Even if the possibility of it being him was small, she still had to check it out.
