Chapter 508: Chapter 506: Mate Mark Sealed
…
Qing Linghuan transformed back into the massive form of the Nine-tailed Celestial Fox, sprawling at the summit of Jiushen Mountain, watching his two cubs, one catching Seven-Colored Spirit Butterflies mid-air, and the other digging holes in the ground.
Things were not looking good!
Because he discovered he could not locate Sally through their mate mark!
And the only possibility was that his mate mark had been sealed!
The only ones currently capable of sealing his mark were Welly and You Hao.
You Hao was busy tending to his eggs and couldn’t attend to Sally’s matter.
Welly was not in the Asura Realm, and the bookstore was left in the care of the Basque, who segregated the Divine Beast Pills.
Even Little Fengning was endlessly roaming, staying today at Zulu’s, tomorrow at Pei Xuan’s, possibly at Zong Silu’s the day after, and entering the Beast Emperor’s Palace the day after that…
The only reason Welly would neglect his son was to search for Sally!
Although Sally was already carrying his child, she could now carry two litters from different Father Beasts at once, this guy was absolutely out to have more children with Sally!
It was said that he preserved every Divine Beast Pill from each defeated Domain God in divine battles and scoured for Divine Materials and Earthly Treasures everywhere, even concocting a good amount of Divine Elixirs and Tonics…
“Dead Man Demon, wait till you come back, and I will flay you!” Qing Linghuan, having finally understood, rose up in his gigantic fox form.
To the two cubs, one in the sky and one on the ground, he asked in a deep voice, “Do you want to go to the Beast Emperor’s Palace?”
“Yes!” Elegant and pretty, Little ShiWu.
“Let’s go.” Little Shisi, dirty and disheveled, known as a Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox, could be mistaken for a little black dog if one didn’t know…
…
Sally had just killed another mini boss and collected the materials that dropped on the ground.
Opening the Game System, she saw that her level had now reached 39, with over twenty thousand points and more than five million Gold Coins.
Like the class of character he had selected, Welly always assisted her to Level Up, never taking action himself.
“That’s enough for today,” Sally said, putting away her Divine Armor and dressing in casual, light clothing.
“Hmm.” Welly, now adeptly using the Game System, was even better at it than she was.
He checked the map, “There’s Frontier City up ahead; it seems to be a privately armed group’s encampment in the game—not just in-game weapons but real ones too. Shall we attack?”
“Let’s not for today; I want to rest tomorrow.”
“Okay.” Welly took her hand, his gaze falling on her slender waist, “How come you’re not showing yet?”
“It’s still early. If there are no special ingredients, the Divine Embryo grows very slowly. Right now, it’s just the size of a small berry.”
“Just one?” Welly’s eyes twinkled.
“Yes.” Sally was looking down at her Game System interface and didn’t notice the change in his expression.
“Are you sure it’s just one?”
“Yes, Xiaomei said there’s just one heartbeat, so it can only be one. Maybe Huanhuan was depleted of Divine Power at the time, affecting the quality? Anyway, pregnancy and childbirth are somewhat up to luck; even Xiaomei can’t figure it out.”
“Yanyan, do you want to check out the Underground City?” Welly held her hand.
“Only players above level 90 can enter, and my level turned upside down is about right,” Sally shook her head, indicating no need to bother.
The Underground City, unlike the cold, dim land of frost, was developed by the System specifically for high-level players’ entertainment and leisure, a place purely for enjoyment and luxury.
“You can also go with a Special Invitation Card.” Welly’s hand produced a meticulously crafted lacquered golden box.
Sally, curious, took it and opened it.
Inside, there was a special invitation card that read “Underground City” in bold.
Sally looked astonished, “Where did this come from?”
“Found it by luck. Believe it or not?” Welly said, eyeing her with a playful smile.
“Believe.” Sally replied seriously.
“Heh, then let’s go.”
“If you miss your son, I can summon him.” But remembering what Xiaomei had said, that even with so many talents, he still died 99 times in the Apocalyptic Ruins, made him wary of this world and reluctant to summon.
Welly replied, “No need. He prefers being with his brothers and sisters.”
“One day when he grows up, having his siblings to cover for him, he won’t be bullied easily.”
“No one can bully him,” Welly asserted confidently.
“That’s true when you are with him, but when you’re not, it depends on connections. Like now, while we are on a mission, he has other uncles and aunts to look after him. He has his siblings to study and play with, so he doesn’t need us for the time being.”
“Hmm, each has its advantages and disadvantages. Let’s go to the Underground City.” Welly gripped her hand tightly, clicked on the location of the Underground City on the map, and teleported away.
Sally looked at the entrance of the Underground City, which turned out to be a tomb, slightly surprised.
Welly handed the invitation card to the Tomb Guardian.
The Tomb Guardian immediately opened the tomb’s doors, inviting them inside.
As Sally passed through a barrier, a warm and fresh breeze met her face. It felt like going from a land of icy snow at tens of degrees below zero to a beautiful spring with gentle breezes and blossoming flowers.
An NPC approached, checked Sally’s invitation card again, and led her and Welly into a sleek, transparent elevator, continuing downward.
Sally glanced at the elevator’s buttons; there were 26 floors!
This was completely different from building 26 floors upward. “It really is worth the visit.”
Their invitation card marked a 5 at the corner, and the elevator stopped at the corresponding fifth floor.
When the elevator doors opened, they were greeted by a large square. There were fountains, flowering trees, and white birds resembling doves but with two heads.
Sally noticed the bird right away and asked Welly, “What do you think, which head does it listen to when flying? Manman’s Three-Headed Dog often tumbles over because the heads can’t agree on a direction.” n𝚘𝚟𝚙u𝚋.co𝚖
Welly: “…”
There were NPCs in the square, and Sally bought a bag of bird food to feed the Two-Headed Bird.
Welly watched the pure, adorable smile on her face and his eyes curved in response.
“Wow—another Hundred Level player, mission failed,” a player wearing a night outfit and a black scarf over his face, clearly an assassin, stared at the Game System’s virtual screen and shouted.
Sally was trying her best to interact with the Two-Headed Bird, but the latter was quite aloof, caring only about the food and completely ignoring her.
After hearing the player’s shout, Sally paused and opened the Game System…
“That’s the one you were talking about, the Doomsday Black Tower.” Welly took a small handful from the bag of bird food.
“…Even at max level, one after another fails. I’m still far from it,” sighed Sally.
“Slowly upgrade. No rush,” Welly felt cheerful as he walked to a clearing and scattered the bird food from his hand.
Suddenly, a flock of birds surrounded him, some cooing at him enthusiastically.
Seeing this, Sally suddenly puffed up her cheeks, looking like a little frog.
“What’s wrong?” Welly asked.
“Why isn’t it that many with me, yet they don’t eat but are so close to you?” Sally glared at him with playful annoyance in her eyes.
Welly paused for a moment, then silently moved closer to her; the Two-Headed Birds followed him…
