"Rumble!"
Tribulation lightning flew across the vault of heaven, while tears flew beneath it.
The only question was, whose tears were they?
Nalan Qiuxiao? Or Maltai Xilan? Or Wang Furong? Or Qiu Mingyu, who had only just received the news?
Or perhaps Murong Ruyu, who had been stunned speechless?

Wang Furong gripped her voice-transmitting jade and asked, "Dalu, how many tribulation bolts are left?"
Li Dalu thought for a moment before replying, "Zijing is breaking through and ascending at the same time. I'm afraid she'll have to endure the Thirty-Six Tribulations."
"Don't rush. There's still plenty of time. Perhaps she'll give you a surprise in a moment!"
"Tell Wang Yu'an that he isn't worthy of Zijing!"
Hearing this, Wang Furong blurted out, "Exactly. Zijing actually defied the heavens to break through and ascend. In this world, aside from my second brother, there truly is no one worthy of her."
"Pfft!"
Hearing this, Liu Yan finally could not hold back her laughter. "Senior Sister, you're so vain. You think about Wang Xian in everything."
Wang Furong shook her head. "What the hell do you know? I hate Wang Xian too... He clearly had an immortal pill, yet he didn't give it to me. He actually gave it to Zijing instead... Boo-hoo, no,
