Chapter 216: Chapter 216

【In a hidden blessed land in the Southern Barbarians Continent.】

【Dressed in a black robe, Gan Zhi Zui sits cross-legged.】

【Her eyes are tightly shut, and her expression is grave to the extreme.】

【Behind her.】

【A massive black serpent's phantom appears.】

【And vaguely, beside the black serpent, there is also a phantom of a white serpent, flickering in and out of sight!】@@novelbin@@

【After a long time.】

【The two phantoms dissipate simultaneously.】

【Gan Zhi Zui slowly opens her eyes.】

【She speaks harshly to herself: It’s been decades, what do you want?】

【If it weren’t for me being gravely injured back then, you wouldn’t have been able to seize control of the body.】

【What, now you’re getting restless?】

【You have to seek that fox?】

【With his bloodline, it’s impossible for him to grow up in the Southern Barbarians.】

【He might have died long ago.】

【As soon as Gan Zhi Zui's cold words fall.】

【In the sea of her heart, Gan Duo Duo's voice immediately comes through.】

【Pah pah pah, you can't say that.】

【Little Yu Yu has deep blessings and won’t die!】

【All along, you’ve been in control of the body. Now, I don’t want to back down.】

【Give me control of the body, and I only need five hundred years.】

【After five hundred years, either one of us can have a year or even a day!】

【Or, in the future, we can alternate one day each or one year each.】

【Gan Zhi Zui scoffs: Dream on! If everything were left to your whims, we would have died long ago!】

【That’s right. Gan Zhi Zui and Gan Duo Duo are two independent souls but share one body.】

【They are truly a dual-soul entity.】

【In the cultivation world, such a constitution is also known as the "conjoined lotus."】

【Two flowers on one stem.】

【It is extremely rare.】

【Those with the conjoined lotus constitution can practice cultivation with half the effort and double the results.】

【Moreover, they won’t have to worry about the troubles of heart demons!】

【This is also why Gan Zhi Zui could achieve great renown in the Southern Barbarians Continent.】

【The two sisters have vastly different personalities.】

【Gan Zhi Zui, the older sister, is dominant and cold-blooded!】

【While Gan Duo Duo, the younger sister, is gentle and timid.】

【It is precisely because of their differing temperaments.】

【For a long time.】

【Gan Zhi Zui has always been in control of the body.】

【And Gan Duo Duo has been sitting in the sea of her heart.】

【Through Gan Zhi Zui's perspective, she quietly observes everything outside.】

【Having become accustomed to the schemes and life-and-death battles in the cultivation world.】

【Gan Duo Duo sometimes feels that even if she spends her whole life in the sea of her heart, there is nothing wrong with that.】

【It is exactly for this reason.】

【The two souls do not compete; instead, they complement each other.】

【Their cultivation speed is rapid.】

【Over five hundred years ago, they had already entered the late stage of the tribulation realm.】

【However, they lacked an opportunity to reach the peak of the tribulation realm.】

【Their cultivation has been stuck at this level.】

【More than two hundred years ago.】

【Gan Zhi Zui discovered a Transmuted Azure Flower in the Valley of Deadly Shadows.】

【If she could successfully obtain this item.】

【She was certain she could step into the peak of the tribulation realm.】

【However, nearby this Transmuted Azure Flower, there was a golden lion demon king guarding it.】

【The opponent was genuinely at the peak of the tribulation realm, capable of ascending at any moment.】

【Clearly, this golden lion planned to swallow the Transmuted Azure Flower during its tribulation to successfully advance.】

【Faced with such a situation.】

【Gan Zhi Zui showed no sign of retreat; she decisively stepped forward to battle the golden lion demon king.】

【Because she knew very well.】

【In the cultivation world, all resources must be fought for.】

【If you’re afraid, you will lose for a lifetime!】

【After three days and nights of intense battle.】

【Gan Zhi Zui successfully slayed the golden lion.】

【But it can hardly be considered a victory.】

【Their battle was too fierce.】

【Even though she had set up a defensive barrier for the Transmuted Azure Flower beforehand, it couldn’t be preserved.】

【The Transmuted Azure Flower was turned to powder during the battle.】

【Gan Zhi Zui felt immense regret and, with her soul injured, had to fall into a deep sleep.】

【Gan Duo Duo took over the body.】

【At first.】

【Gan Duo Duo was somewhat timid, afraid to run around; she only dared to stay in the blessed land.】

【As time passed, her courage grew.】

【Gan Duo Duo didn’t want to waste time like this.】

【So she began searching for suitable mountains to prepare to claim a mountain as her own, to experience the feeling of being a great demon king.】

【Later, she arrived at Forgetting Worry Mountain and successfully brought Ye Yu under her command!】

【Time flies.】

【Gan Duo Duo increasingly enjoyed life in the Southern Barbarians Continent.】

【She discovered that although the world was dangerous, everyone had their own way of living.】

【As long as she spoke gently with the demons, they would be friendly as well.】

【Unbeknownst to her, those demons merely feared Gan Duo Duo’s terrifying demonic power!】

【Later, when Ye Yu expressed his desire to find her as his Dao partner.】

【Gan Duo Duo was both surprised and delighted.】

【After two hundred years of day and night together.】

【She had already fallen in love with Ye Yu.】

【But due to her unique constitution, she had set a two-year agreement.】

【Originally, she planned to enter seclusion and discuss matters thoroughly with Gan Zhi Zui.】

【After all, you’ve controlled the body for a thousand years; isn’t it only fair that I control it for the next thousand years?】

【But who would have thought that Gan Zhi Zui had no intention of discussing this with Gan Duo Duo at all.】

【She directly took control of the body.】

【Even intending to make a move against Ye Yu.】

【Naturally, Gan Duo Duo was unwilling and fought Gan Zhi Zui for control of the body.】

【Gan Zhi Zui had no choice but to relent.】

【Originally thinking that this matter would end here.】

【But unexpectedly, in the decades since leaving Forgetting Worry Mountain, Gan Duo Duo has been resisting her.】

【This made Gan Zhi Zui extremely unhappy.】

【Now, she forcefully suppresses Gan Duo Duo.】

【She absolutely refuses to allow Gan Duo Duo to gain control of the body!】

【Because Gan Zhi Zui knows very well that cultivating as Dao partners means practicing the Kun character technique together.】

【They share one body; even if hidden in the sea of the heart, they can perceive everything outside.】

【Just the thought of that scene makes Gan Zhi Zui unable to accept it!】

【Therefore, there’s no room for negotiation in this matter!】

【Gan Zhi Zui and Gan Duo Duo are once again fighting for control of the body in the blessed land!】

【Meanwhile.】

【On the other side, within Fox Mountain.】

【Ye Yu is enjoying the warm hospitality from Zhou Xuan!】

【Some time ago.】

【Zhou Xuan went to the Lan Kingdom and heard Ye Yu’s story from Yin Zhi.】

【Learning that if Ye Yu had not stepped in to save him back then.】

【Perhaps Yin Zhi and Yin Fei Jing would have died long ago.】

【Such a life-saving grace certainly needs to be repaid.】

【Moreover.】

【Ye Yu is also Yin Fei Jing's Dao partner, and with this layer of connection, both sides naturally feel closer!】

【Regarding this.】

【Yin Fei Jing expressed her protest!】

【Claiming that she and Ye Yu are enemies, not Dao partners!】

【Zhou Xuan instinctively thought this was just a little couple bickering.】

【So she advised: Don’t be ungrateful! Finding a Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox as a Dao partner is a blessing you’ve earned over eight lifetimes!】

【Upon hearing this.】

【Ye Yu suddenly froze, unable to hold the spiritual fruit in his hand.】

【A Nine-Tailed Heavenly Fox?】

【That sounds really impressive!】
