Chapter 1169: Gu Dongxing Faces the Tribulation

Witnessing Gu Dongxing’s Flying Cloud speed, Mengyu finally realized how incredibly fast it was.

She recalled the time she rode on a Flying Cloud before, not only was it slow, but also small, barely fitting one person, and two people had to squeeze in tightly.

Yet now, it was obviously both spacious and fast. It was clear Gu Dongxing was fooling her last time. She really wanted to settle the score, but knew now wasn’t the time to do so. She could only swallow her anger, planning to deal with Gu Dongxing later.

Gu Dongxing naturally knew that as soon as he displayed this Flying Cloud speed, his previous laziness would be exposed.

But at this moment, there were more pressing concerns, and he could only plead his case with his wife later. Once in high altitude, Flying Cloud raced at full speed, aiming to leave the city as quickly as possible.

Gu Dongxing noticed dark clouds gathering in the sky. Having faced a Heavenly Tribulation in a past life, he recognized them as tribulation thunder clouds.

Moreover, the Thunder Tribulation Cloud gathered at an alarming rate, and in the blink of an eye, thunderclouds amassed in large patches.

However, because of his rapid flight, the Thunder Tribulation Cloud struggled to lock onto him, so it could only follow Gu Dongxing.

Two hours later, they arrived at a remote mountain area seldom visited by people. Mengyu was about to take out the Array Plate to set up an array, but Gu Dongxing waved his hand: "There’s no time, you must leave quickly."

Mengyu looked up, indeed, large dark Thunder Tribulation Clouds had locked onto this space. If she didn’t leave quickly, she would be mistaken by the thunder as trying to assist, making it more fierce.

So she said, "Good luck!" and tossed out the Five Elements Fan, leaving swiftly.

Just as she left the tribulation cloud’s area, a clap of thunder sounded, making her heart skip a beat.

She stayed in a distant space, watching lightning bolts strike at Gu Dongxing, feeling quite concerned.

Gu Dongxing was a soldier, a veteran with numerous battle achievements, having killed many with an aura full of Evil Qi.

She feared that because of this Evil Qi, his tribulation would be even more difficult.

However, what brought Mengyu some reassurance was that Gu Dongxing had a Thunder Spiritual Root, able to absorb Thunder Spiritual Power for himself, so he shouldn’t be struck to death by lightning.

And as long as Gu Dongxing wasn’t struck dead on the spot, she could rescue him.

However, the roaring thunder quickly subsided, leaving her speechless. Was this tribulation bullying the weak and fearing the strong?

Mengyu remembered her own tribulation took quite a while with a lot of Merit Points spent to complete the Golden Core Tribulation. Yet when it was Gu Dongxing’s turn, despite being a killer with Evil Qi, it ended so quickly?

She understood, Gu Dongxing had a Thunder Spiritual Root and a Heavenly Spirit Body, the Thunder God was favoring their own.

This is unfair!

However, the unfair favoritism was towards Gu Dongxing, which made her feel rather happy. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

When Gu Dongxing approached her with a soot-streaked face and pulled her into his arms, Mengyu burst out laughing.

"Haha, you look like that, haha."

Feeling the powerful aura emanating from Gu Dongxing, Mengyu was genuinely happy for him. The wash of the tribulation had cleared the Evil Qi from him.

Mengyu suddenly found it strange: "How odd, didn’t you just go through Core Formation Tribulation? Why does your aura feel so strong?"

So strong that Mengyu couldn’t discern how many levels of the Golden Core stage he had reached.
