The Rabbit Maiden forced herself to maintain her smile. “Big Brother An Lin, this world has become unstable. We need to get out of here as quickly as possible.”
“Alright.” An Lin nodded.
Son Goku was still holding onto a shred of hope. “Are there really no other treasures here?”
He had guarded this set of ruins for over ten days, but there was nothing in here?
This was quite a heavy blow to Son Goku.
“Aren’t I the biggest treasure here?” The Rabbit Maiden skipped over to Son Goku and gave him an extremely sweet and enticing smile. “Are you still not satisfied with a treasure like me?”
Her adorable display could woo countless living beings and make them completely intoxicated.
Son Goku gripped his Golden-Banded Staff even more tightly to calm himself down before heaving a faint sigh.
An Lin spoke with a serious expression, “No, Little Rabbit belongs to the human race and even the entire Tai Chu Continent, not just myself.”
Xu Xiaolan gave him a gentle smile. “Well said.”
Little Rabbit scratched her ear with a perplexed expression. How did she belong to the Tai Chu Continent?
She was only a mercenary for An Lin! Even though she was fighting for the human race, what enemies could the human race have? And what enemies could An Lin have? Even though An Lin possessed the Dao Integration Stage power level, she was a God of Creation Stage living being, so it would be a piece of cake for her to take care of his enemies.
The Rabbit Maiden was much more assured with this in mind, and a genuine smile appeared on her face. “I’m finally free… My life is going to be wonderful from this day forth.”
Whoosh…
One figure after another flew out from the gate of light.
“Are you finally back?” The Demonic Frost Star twirled with glee upon seeing everyone return safely. “Look, these are the enemies I held off for you guys!”
There were a few dozen Void Spirit Tribe powerful beings outside the ruins that had been frozen into ice sculptures.
An Lin smiled. “Well done, Little Star.”
“It was all thanks to Master’s clear instructions.” The Demonic Frost Star chuckled. It had completely grown accustomed to its new role now.
It then noticed that there seemed to be a new addition to their party, and it exclaimed, “Who’s that?”
“Oh, let me introduce to you, Little Rabbit. This is my slave, Little Star,” An Lin introduced the two of them to one another.
“Hello, I’m Little Star.”
“Hello, I’m Little Rabbit.”
The Demonic Frost Star and Heavenly Monarch Xi Ling looked at each other with tears in their eyes, creating a very touching scene.
For some reason, An Lin felt like they had become comrades who suffered from the same cruel fate.
“Little Star, what was your original name?”
“Demonic Frost Star.”
“Great name!”
“Little Rabbit, what was your original name?”
“Heavenly Monarch Xi Ling.”
“Badass! That’s a great name too!”
For some reason, the Demonic Frost Star and the Rabbit Maiden got along very well from the get-go.
An Lin was very elated to see this. They could converse freely with one another due to the names he had given them. This showed that he was right to give them these names, and that they did serve a function after all.
In the next few days, An Lin and the others continued to hunt down Void Spirit Tribe powerful beings.
Due to the inclusion of the Battling Buddha and the Rabbit Maiden, their lineup had become even more insanely terrifying.
In particular, the Rabbit Maiden was very eager to prove herself and could even kill Soul Formation Stage enemies from over one thousand five hundred kilometers away with just a sharp exhalation, showing An Lin just how terrifying the God of Creation Stage power was.
After five days, they had slain three Return to Void Stage mighty figures, a few dozen Soul Formation Stage powerful beings, and countless Void Spirit Tribe living beings below the Soul Formation Stage.
As for the Dao Integration Stage super mighty figures, they didn’t even encounter a single one. Perhaps they had somehow received news of this and had run away in advance.
An Lin didn’t really mind. This had already been a very bountiful trip. The Void Spirit Tribe had been severely weakened by his exploits, and they most likely wouldn’t be posing any threat in the ongoing war.
The exit to the Spirit Lake Realm was a purple vortex in the Spirit Realm.
The Rabbit Maiden looked behind her at the Spirit Realm with a forlorn expression before stepping into the vortex behind An Lin and the others and quickly disappearing from this world.
Above the icy lake, a few figures emerged.
All of the bystanders immediately erupted into raucous cheers.
“Look, White Spirit Snake and Black Spirit Snake are back!”
“The Battling Buddha, An Lin, and the Divine Phoenix Maiden have also returned!”
“My God, even Liu Qianhuan of the Sword Pavilion and Sect Leader Liu Mingxuan are here!”
“Wow… Is this the Tai Chu Continent?” The gorgeous Rabbit Maiden looked around at their surroundings with her curious pink eyes as she took a deep breath. “As expected of the main continent, what rich vital energy!”
Only then did An Lin realize that she was not from this continent.
Furthermore, the reason why he wanted to meet Heavenly Monarch Bei Luo’s enemy was so that he could understand more about the world outside of the Tai Chu Continent. Thus, this was a perfect opportunity for him to do so!
Black Spirit Snake and White Spirit Snake bade farewell to An Lin and the others. They had to report their successful trip to Nuwa. The Battling Buddha was also quite satisfied with this trip and also bade farewell to everyone.
Liu Mingxuan made his way over to An Lin with an awkward, apologetic expression on his face.
“Um… Sect Leader An Lin, I have to go as well. Thank you once again for your help… As for our differences in the past—”
“That’s enough,” An Lin interjected with a smile. “We’re comrades with a common enemy. You don’t need to thank me for providing assistance to you!”
Upon hearing this, Liu Mingxuan faltered slightly before a rare smile appeared on his face. “Alright, I’ll be taking my leave now.”
He extended a salute toward An Lin before turning to the woman beside him with a gentle expression. “Qianhuan, I take back what I said in the past. I’m really glad that you chose to stay at the Four Nine Immortal Sect.”
A vibrant smile appeared on Liu Qianhuan’s face. “Of course! This was the best decision I’ve ever made!”
The father and daughter exchanged warm smiles.
Never had they exchanged smiles like this ever since Qiu Hong died over a hundred years ago.
At this moment, the two of them smiling at one another presented an extremely beautiful and enchanting scene.
An Lin and the others all walked away to give the two of them some alone time.
They caught a few succulent-looking fish from the ice lake and cooked some fish soup using the frying pan.
These were Snowflake Manta Rays unique to this lake in the Spirit Lake Realm, and they were renowned for being extremely delicious and juicy.
The Rabbit Maiden was already swallowing her drool as she rubbed her hands together and stared at the fish cooking in the frying pan.
Her Heavenly Dao Oath was the objective reason why she was staying by An Lin’s side, but his unbeatable cooking was the subjective reason why she was staying with him.
Liu Qianhuan was already making her way over to them from afar before the fish was fully cooked.
Liu Mingxuan had evidently already left.
Liu Qianhuan was slightly dazed at the sight of An Lin and Xu Xiaolan conversing joyfully beside the frying pan.
An Lin caught sight of her and waved with a warm smile. “Come on, I’ve prepared a portion for you as well! This fish is really delicious!”
A vibrant smile appeared on Liu Qianhuan’s face. “Alright, I’m coming. I can’t let an opportunity to sample the Chef God’s cooking for free slip away!”
