Chapter 1945: Is This Fortune or Tragedy

An Lin was a little baffled by White Tigers frank refusal.

Why? he asked.

My daughter has fallen in love with him. I cant control my daughter, and she refuses to let Yang Yuan go, so I cant do anything, White Tiger gave a resigned reply.

An Lin was astonished.

Little Xiaolan was astonished.

Mo Hai was also astonished.

White Tigers daughter fell in love with Yang Yuan?

Holy f*ck! Was Yang Yuan that badass?

Mo Hai suddenly felt like he was so useless. While he was arduously working as a miner, Yang Yuan was chatting up White Tigers daughter

Can I speak to Yang Yuan? An Lin asked.

Of course. You guys can communicate on this matter as well. I actually dont oppose my daughter entering a relationship with Yang Yuan. As long as theyre both happy, Im happy. White Tiger was unexpectedly quite open-minded regarding this matter.

An Lin had initially thought that White Tiger would be far more barbaric and violent, but it looked like he was actually quite easygoing.

Was this because of his doting love for his daughter or his position and status?

Soon, Yang Yuans animated voice sounded within the telecommunication ball.

An Lin! Is that really you? Xu Xiaolan inherited the Holy Berth? You two killed the Vermilion Bird?! Yang Yuan was very excited.

An Lin gave affirmative responses to all of these questions.

Even though he was already mentally prepared, Yang Yuan was still very shocked to hear this.

Who would have thought that you and Sister Xu Xiaolan would achieve such an earth-shattering feat! We have more hope in our resistance against the Heavenly Human Tribe now! Yang Yuan was quite elated.

Brother Yang Yuan, whats going on with you? I heard you and Sister White Tiger, hehehe An Lin gave a sly chuckle.

Please dont tease me, An Lin. Sigh A resigned expression appeared on Yang Yuans face. I used my holy flames to eradicate the frost poison that had afflicted White Tigers daughter, thinking that there was no harm in befriending White Tiger and his daughter, but it appears that his daughter wants to be more than friends

Bai Xiaohu is now pursuing me as her dao partner, and even after I told her that Im married, she said she didnt mind and would be content as my concubine

An Lins eyes lit up. Thats awesome!

Little Xiaolan sucked on her little thumb and glared at An Lin.

An Lin immediately flared up with rage. What a shameless tiger she is! Sigh Its too bad that I wont be able to help you. Do you have any way to travel to the Vermilion Bird territory so that we can go back together?

Bai Xiaohu is following me everywhere I go, and I get a splitting headache whenever I see her now If worse comes to worst, Ill have to take her back to the Tai Chu Continent with me Yang Yuan was very irritated.

An Lin didnt think that was a bad thing.

However, he only nodded with a sympathetic expression. Take care of yourself, Brother Yang Yuan. Xiaolan and I will wait for you at the Vermilion Bird territory.

The two of them hung up after talking for a while longer.

Mo Hai sighed with emotion. Sigh, I dont know if this is fortune or tragedy. Even though Brother Yang Yuan has received White Tigers core inheritance and now has many white tigers protecting him, hes stuck with Bai Xiaohu

An Lin turned to Mo Hai with a raised eyebrow.

Was he serious?

Obtaining a top-rate inheritance, having a beautiful white tiger as a concubine, and gaining a horde of white tiger bodyguards. How was this anywhere near a tragedy?

After a while, An Lin contacted Xuan Wu.

Hello, Great Empress Vermilion Bird, I must congratulate on successfully inheriting the Holy Berth on behalf of the entire Xuan Wu Tribe, and I hope that our cooperation will continue to Xuan Wu immediately began to rattle off a spiel as if he were pressed for time.

Xu Xiaolan: Waah!

So huh? Xuan Wu faltered slightly upon hearing this tender voice.

Vermilion Bird? Xuan Wu asked.

Ya! Little Xiaolan responded.

Xuan Wu:

Thus, it was guardian/spokesperson An Lins turn to take the stage.

An Lin made some small talk with Xuan Wu, and before he had even asked about Shangguan Yi, Xuan Wu mentioned her.

Sigh, Im currently recovering from some injuries. My Xuan Wu Heart Essence was somehow damaged, and Im trying to repress the resulting backlash. Otherwise, I would definitely come to visit in person. Xuan Wu sighed with distress.

Oh? Who could be powerful enough to damage your Xuan Wu Heart Essence? An Lin was intrigued.

It was a female cultivator. Sigh I dont know if this has anything to do with her, but Ive had terrible luck ever since she came. Im even beginning to suspect that shes a secret karma weapon one of my enemies has deployed to bring about my downfall! Xuan Wus head throbbed with pain.

He then talked about how a series of natural phenomena occurred, including vicious storms, lethal rainbows, chaotic lightning, all of which somehow ended up attacking his Xuan Wu Heart Essence.

Even though these are all natural phenomena, I cant help but feel that there are simply too many of them taking place in quick succession for this to be a coincidence. Theres something off about Shangguan Yi! Xuan Wu analyzed. Hence, I locked her up, and Im planning to interrogate her later.

An Lin:

Mo Hai:

What was that? Shangguan Yi?

Holy f*ck!

Was Sister Shangguan Yis halo of ill-fortune that badass already?

She was already wreaking havoc in the Xuan Wu territory

Mo Hai slumped to the ground as if he had received a heavy blow. Im so useless Why am I so useless? All of you are doing meaningful things while I was working as a miner under the Vermilion Bird Tribe

An Lin turned to look at Mo Hai again.

Doing meaningful things? Sister Shangguan Yi had been locked up, how was that meaningful in any way?

Mr. Xuan Wu, I have a request that I have to make on behalf of Great Empress Vermilion Bird An Lin mustered up some courage.

State your request, and Ill do my best to help you! Xuan Wu replied.

An Lin continued, Um Shangguan Yi is actually my friend. I can assure you that those instances of ill-fortune you suffered have nothing to do with Shangguan Yi, so please release her!

Xuan Wu:

A prolonged silence ensued.

I get it now! Xuan Wu suddenly broke the silence.

Thank you, Mr. Xuan Wu

This is all a sinister plot!

Xuan Wu cut him off before he could finish his sentence.

Youre her friend I get it, youre both assassins!

Your mission is to assassinate the Vermilion Bird, while Shangguan Yis mission is to assassinate me. You succeeded, but I was wise enough to see through Shangguan Yis guise! And now, youre trying to recover your fellow assassin

Who gave you the rings? If Im not mistaken, you also have friends on the White Tiger territory and Azure Dragon territory, right?

Xuan Wu chuckled coldly. Hehehe, Im not falling for this!
