"Breaking through here? All right. This area is nothing but wilderness for dozens of miles, so it should do..."
"Ji Xichan, go down and get ready. I'll lay down an array for you to weaken the Celestial Tribulation!"
In response to Pei Yuhang's words, which were finally tinged with a hint of concern, Ji Xichan simply shook her head, her expression serene.
"There's no need. Pei Sword Immortal, I only need you to stand guard for me. I have great use for the power of this Thunder Tribulation."
Her voice was cold and tranquil, as if she were discussing something utterly mundane. She showed no trace of fear for the roiling tribulation clouds overhead.
At her words, Pei Yuhang's brow furrowed even deeper. Sensing the ever-densifying storm of Spiritual Qi gathering overhead, a flicker of anxiety crossed his eyes, and his tone grew heavier.
"Don't be so reckless! Prodigies often die to their Celestial Tribulations!"
