Chapter 1176 Xuanyu 32
Tan You picked up her teacup and watched Yao Yao leave with the others. Jin Han snuggled up to Tan You and asked, "Lord, where are we going next?"
Tan You said softly, "I plan to go to the Ruins of the Gods to collect the bloodlines of the fallen divine beasts."
Jin Han was startled: "Are you going alone?"
“Yes, I’ll go in alone,” Tan You glanced in the direction of the Sword Sect. “Then Biluo Ridge will be moved to the vicinity of the Ruins of the Gods. You can wait for me to come back outside. Everything in Biluo Ridge needs your careful management.”
"Can't I go in?" Jin Han rarely asked, but she hugged Tan You and acted coquettishly. "My lord, I don't want to be separated from you."
Tan You chuckled: "You will ascend before me eventually. I went out this time to find the bloodline of the Golden Ringed Serpent for you, so as to complete the missing bloodline in your body."
Jin Han spoke up for Tan You, saying, "You clearly possess extraordinary talent, yet you are limited by this frail body. If you weren't a merman, you might have already ascended to immortality..."
"Where else do we have to spend so much time here? And you're running around all over the place for me, all of this?"
Tan You stroked Jin Han's hair: "This is my path, Jin Han, and you have yours too. You are my most capable assistant, and I need your help with many things."
“I know,” Jin Han rubbed her cheek against Tan You’s shoulder, “I will definitely do my best, and I will definitely not let anyone hurt you.”
She's gotten this far entirely thanks to Tan You's guidance. Now, Tan You is going to help her complete her bloodline and travel to those dangerous ruins of the gods, while she herself can't help Tan You at all...
Jin Han is now eager to grow up and strive to protect Tan You from the storm.
A month later, a marriage array was quietly lit up in the inner sect of the Sword Sect, and Biluo Ridge disappeared from everyone's sight once again, and this time it disappeared even more completely.
At this moment, Tan You had already led the little monsters and tender plant spirits from Biluo Ridge to the vicinity of the Gods' Ruins. As for everything about Biluo Ridge, it was truly just a legend in the eyes of the world.
Jin Han looked at the barrier before him: "Lord, is this really the ruins of the gods? Can't I go in with you?"
"I'm worried about you going in alone."
Tan You touched Jin Han's hair. Even though Jin Han was already half a head taller than her, she smiled and said, "I can go in by myself. You take good care of the house outside. If all goes well, I'll be back in a year or two."
“You can’t come in with me. Once you go in, you’ll never come out again. You’ll spend the rest of your life here.”
Jin Han was reluctant to part with Tan You: "Lord, we've never been apart..."
Tan You pulled Jin Han's hand down: "I know, but we will have to part ways someday. I will be back soon. You still need to take care of Biluo Ridge. Keep an eye on their cultivation."
"As for the half-demon... you can't handle it by yourself. Let's talk about it when I get back."
Listening to Tan You's detailed explanation, Jin Han felt a little less anxious about the impending separation. She treated it as if Tan You had just gone on a long trip and would be back soon.
After giving these instructions, he then prepared Biluo Ridge to be as impregnable as an iron fortress. Just before stepping into the Ruins of the Gods, Tan You looked up at the sky, and suddenly with a wave of her right hand, a scroll of star map landed in her palm. Together with Tan You, they entered the Ruins of the Gods.
"I don't want to enter the Ruins of the Gods..." The Star Chart tried to break free from Tan You's grasp, but Tan You used some unknown method, and the Star Chart couldn't break free no matter what she did. Even though they had no contractual relationship, the other could still control her.
“We met when we were both nobody, so naturally we have to be together all the time,” Tan You said in a very gentle tone. “When I went into the Ruins of the Gods, and you were all alone outside, didn’t you miss me?”
Star Chart: I miss you so much!
"Besides, you are the clan's most precious treasure, so of course I have to take you with me wherever I go. The clan's most precious treasure must have the right to be respected." Tan You kept repeating the same thing: this star map had to be with her at all times.
Once she enters the Ruins of the Gods, who knows what the Star Chart will do in the outside world? Her Biluo Ridge only has this much property. If it is ruined by the Star Chart, Tan You's ascension will have to wait for thousands more years.
As for whether the star map could come out after going in with her, Tan You naturally didn't care. She personally preferred to get rid of the star map and lock it away in some secluded place.
If it's later confirmed that the star map is a friend rather than a foe, she can then enter the Ruins of the Gods again to bring it out. For now, the star map should just stay obediently in the Ruins of the Gods.
The star chart saw through Tan You's plan and couldn't help but curse this heartless person from another world. He had thought she was a good person, but it turned out she was waiting for him here.
No matter how unwilling the Star Chart was, she had already entered the Ruins of the Gods with Tan You. The Ruins of the Gods were devoid of spiritual energy and filled with countless malevolent energies.
Once the star map entered, it lay dormant and could no longer float. Tan You casually rolled it up, dug a hole, and buried it, showing no intention of taking it with her on her journey.
Xingchentu gave up the struggle and decided to give up completely. She had only wanted to control Tan You, but now she was the one being controlled. She would have to ask Tan You for help if she wanted to leave in the future.
Tan You had no time to spare for the star map at this moment. Like a rice weevil that had fallen into a rice jar, she quickly collected the bloodlines of various divine beasts she encountered along the way.
Time flies, but Biluo Ridge remains the same Biluo Ridge, with only a few small demon beasts and the spirits of plants and trees still young. For them, the unit of cultivation is measured in millennia.
"That's all for today's lesson," Jin Han stood up and glanced out the window. "Everyone, go back and study hard. We'll have a weekly test in three days. The person who comes in last on the weekly test will go to the training ground to be a sparring partner."
The little monsters immediately began to wail, while the plant spirits were much quieter. The plant spirits were consistently superior in the weekly tests; getting these little monsters to read and write was practically impossible.
Jin Han said with a stern face, "If the lord comes back and sees you all so lazy, she will be unhappy."
The little monsters jolted and immediately sat up straight. Although Jin Han always had a stern face, they weren't actually afraid of her. Tan You, on the other hand, always had a smile on her face, but the little monsters still didn't dare to be unruly.
After giving a few more words of reprimand, Jin Han left the classroom with his hands in his pockets. His eyes lit up when he saw a figure in the distance: "Lord! You're back!"
As soon as she shouted, about a dozen little monsters rushed out of the classroom. Soon, Tan You was surrounded by furry creatures, and Jin Han casually pushed her way to Tan You's side first.
Tan You patted Jin Han's head: "I saw it, you taught them very well."
“I taught you using the methods you usually use,” Jin Han nuzzled Tan You’s shoulder. Despite being much taller than Tan You, she acted like a child, asking, “Was the trip smooth?”
