From the Heavens Descended an Immortal Sister

Bai Qi liked him, Fang Ren was clear about this in his heart, so the conclusion was obvious. It was because she liked him and saw him being "assassinated" by Jiang Ling, worrying that he could be killed by Jiang Ling at any moment, that Bai Qi came here.

However, what Fang Ren hadn't expected was that in the surveillance, Bai Qi was so emotional that she spoke words that implied "whatever method," a language of recklessness.

The video in his hands played until the end and started looping again, and as Fang Ren watched Bai Qi in the video, resolute and shouting "no matter what method, it doesn't matter," suddenly, a scene that had appeared two months ago flashed through Fang Ren's mind:

It was a bustling street, at noon, and the sunlight was a bit scorching.

In the crowd, Bai Qi was wearing a pair of broken white canvas shoes, tightly clutching a stack of cash, and twenty meters away on the roadside was the figure of Fang Ren with little Qianye.

The twenty-meter-long street was bustling with people coming and going, and Bai Qi, within Fang Ren's line of sight, was occasionally blocked by passersby.

"Fang Ren!"

Suddenly, Bai Qi, holding tightly to the hem of her skirt, shouted his name loudly.

Fang Ren was slightly stunned, his gaze fixed on Bai Qi, who was a bit dirty, as this was the first time Bai Qi had run away from home, and it was when he was giving her the fare to go back.

"I, Bai Qi! Am willing to go through fire and water for you!"

The serious words shouted by the girl seemed earnest; however, at the time, Fang Ren considered it just something a girl would blurt out impulsively after hearing about the annulment of an engagement.

Yet he hadn't anticipated that the girl had truly made up her mind at the time and that this day would indeed come...

The surveillance video in his hands stopped again and data information reported at high speed by a group of researchers reached his ears. Fang Ren put down the video, staring blankly at the depths of the laboratory at the Bai Qi lying on the hospital bed, his heart suddenly filled with sorrow.

That today's scene had unfolded was all because of Bai Qi's good intentions towards him, not because Bai Chaojin was so inhumane, nor because Indra Sky forcefully turned Bai Qi into a living dead... It was all voluntarily done by Bai Qi, willing to protect him.

Why had things turned out this way?

Fang Ren was distressed, wondering why Bai Qi had fallen for him. The person she should have liked was Song Mobei, so why had it suddenly become him...

However, it was just a few seconds of distress, for he understood that no matter what he thought at this moment, it couldn't change the situation at hand. Rather than asking himself questions without answers, it was better to quickly resolve the matter in front of him.

Bai Chaojin felt much more comfortable after seeing Fang Ren put down the surveillance video, because he knew that no matter what happened to Bai Qi next, Fang Ren wouldn't be able to just sit by and watch.

In the depths of the laboratory, the green vines on Bai Qi's body had all retracted inside, and little Qianye, full of excitement, jumped off Bai Qi and rushed towards Fang Ren.

Fang Ren was walking towards the depths of the laboratory, his gaze constantly scanning Indra Sky's largest laboratory. Although it had been badly damaged, he could still discern many of the test subjects, and with his wide-range but fine-tuned perception, he could arrive at very accurate conclusions.

This large laboratory housed a total of 2,624 test subjects, nearly three thousand people, meaning that 2,624 practitioners who had come off the battlefield were brought to this highly revered Central Area, only to undergo extraordinarily cruel experimentation.

They sacrificed for Earth, and what they got in the end was being exploited again by the higher-ups, squeezed dry of their last value, and the outside world didn't even know how they died.

Bai Chaojin, Indra Sky... every one of them was guilty! They couldn't escape the heavy sin, no matter what!

In a society built upon human moral norms, Bai Chaojin deserved to be killed ten thousand times over.

"Heiha heiha!"

Little Qianye ran and bounced happily into Fang Ren's arms, pointing excitedly in the direction of Bai Qi, shouting, "Master! Sacred Body! Sacred Body! Heiha!"

Fang Ren pulled his attention away from the bodies and listened to Qianye's words. Glancing at Bai Qi again, he wasn't too surprised this time. The power that had erupted from Bai Qi's Spiritual Root had been enough to destroy the entire Tianjiang, which meant it could obliterate one-fifteenth of Earth's land.

It would be odd if she didn't have some special body constitution.

"Is it even stronger than Liu Qianqian's constitution?" Fang Ren asked.

Qianye shook his head, "No, Qian Qian's constitution is one of the strongest in the world, heh heh!"

Fang Ren frowned. Bai Qi's constitution could wipe out a fifteenth of Earth's land, and yet, it wasn't as strong as Liu Qianqian's? Then what kind of constitution did Liu Qianqian have?

Moving through the Ten Thousand Realms... Would Liu Qianqian really end up like that?

"However, while the constitution is important for cultivation, it's fortune that truly matters, heh heh," Qianye spoke.

"What constitution does Bai Qi have?" Fang Ren inquired.

"The Withered Wood Profound Spirit Constitution, heh heh!"

"What's it good for?"

"It's one of the strongest forms of the Wood attribute. At the highest realms, one thought can wither all things, and another can bring them to life, heh heh," said Qianye.

After listening, Fang Ren's face showed his headache. Every Sacred Body sounded so mighty, but he had never seen such phenomena in reality.

He couldn't shake the feeling that Qianye was boasting nonsense...

Fang Ren's conversation with Qianye wasn't soundproofed by True Qi, so Bai Chaojin caught every word. However, he didn't care about what constituted a Sacred Body or not. He didn't want to understand those things; he only wanted to grasp the present moment.

The group of researchers next to him continued to report their findings, with Bai Chaojin incessantly asking about the situation.

"The gray Spiritual Root has devoured the Void Energy! It has re-suppressed Princess's Life Spiritual Root! The energy within the princess's body has stabilized!" they reported.

"Can the experiment continue?"

"If we continue the experiment, the energy in the princess's body may become uncontrollable again! But with Fang Ren here, the feasibility is 90%! If we stop the experiment, the princess might truly become a corpse!"

"Continue the experiment!"

...

At Bai Chaojin's command, the researchers sprang into action once more.

"Commander! The Void Beast used for the experimentation has been destroyed by the vines! We must obtain a new Void Beast to proceed!" a researcher said.

Hearing this, Bai Chaojin furrowed his brows and responded, "What about that skull of the Ninth-order Void Beast, can we use it?"

The researcher was startled, "Commander! That skull is still alive! And it's a genuine Ninth-order... the gray Spiritual Root inside Princess Bai Xi can't suppress it!"

Bai Chaojin glanced at Fang Ren, not far away, and said, "What if he suppresses it?"

The researcher turned to Fang Ren and then fixed his gaze on Qianye, the little creature that had suppressed the rampaging energy that could destroy Tianjiang.

"With the help of Young Master Fang, the Ninth-order Void Beast Skull can serve as the energy for Princess Bai Xi's evolution!" the researcher stated emphatically.
