After being reborn, all I want to do is run away.

Chapter 451 The Crisis of the Milky Way

The viewing platform to commemorate Lei Feng.

Looking at Bai Lu's empty seat, Deng Yi couldn't help but feel puzzled. Bai Lu wasn't usually such a rude person, so why was she delaying her arrival time again and again today?

"Has something happened?"

"Sect Master, who is that young girl in blue? I've never seen her before." At this moment, a graceful and elegant woman to his right asked.

"You mean her! Apparently, she's a younger sister that Bai Yatou (a nickname) adopted outside. She wanted to experience the Milky Way tidal bore firsthand, so I agreed," Deng Yi said with a smile.

"Bai Lu said she was a genius girl with talent at the Earth Rank. Now it seems that her comprehension and strength are top-notch. It's a pity that such a genius is not one of our sect."

"A disciple of the Sword Alliance?" Jiang Xunxue couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

"What, Elder Jiang, are you perhaps tempted?"

As far as I know, she is not a disciple of the Sword Alliance, but a disciple of an eighth-rank sect under the Sword Sect.

"Oh right, it seems he's from the same sect as Shen Xu."

"Hmm?" Everyone was somewhat surprised to hear Deng Yi's words.

At the same time, everyone became curious about what kind of eighth-grade sect it was, that could produce disciples who were all incredibly talented and amazing.

Jiang Xunxue's eyes lit up, and she immediately said, "It's a real pity that such a genius is in an eighth-grade sect. I think our sect is more suitable for her, and it just so happens that I..."

Elder Jiang, there's no need to worry.

Neither of us has the right to make this decision. That child has deep feelings for that eighth-grade sect and is also the future leader of that sect. She will not easily agree to join the Tianhe Sword Sect.

Bai Lu's idea is to let her study at the Tianhe Sword Sect first, and then try to recruit her into the sect when she develops feelings for it.

Since Elder Jiang likes that girl so much, let her study under Elder Jiang for a while!

"As for the rest, that's up to Elder Jiang's abilities," Deng Yi said with a smile.

"Sect Master, did you and Bai Yatou plan this all along?" Jiang Xunxue said coldly.

Before Deng Yi could speak, a middle-aged man next to her said, "One is willing to hit, and the other is willing to be hit. If Elder Jiang is unwilling, I can do it for her!"

"Get out! When did I say I didn't want to?" Jiang Xunxue's face turned cold.

"Tch, such a bad temper, no wonder..." Before the elder could finish speaking, he pulled some small plant roots from his mouth and nose, then looked at Jiang Xunxue angrily.

"Then it's decided." Deng Yi coldly stopped the impending conflict.

At this point, half an hour had passed, and the name on the light screen above the Milky Way had stopped changing.

Those disciples who did not make it into the top 100 all stepped down from the Canglang Sword Platform, while the remaining 100 disciples stood almost evenly on the nine sword platforms.

Even the smallest ant can devour an elephant; even if the top-ranked individuals are very strong, others are not without a chance.

At the command of the presiding elder, the hundred disciples displayed their unique abilities, attempting to retrieve the Canglang Sword from the turbulent Milky Way.

Ling Wufeng cleaved the water with his splitting lightning sword and leaped into the lightning-streaked Milky Way.

Ye Jingqiu, completely unafraid, jumped directly into the Milky Way and disappeared from everyone's sight.

A string of thunder talismans flew out of Xi Mo's hand, the talismans transforming into a phantom dragon that swallowed a sword vortex and headed straight for the Canglang Sword beneath the sword platform.

……

Spring Dew Pavilion.

Shen Xu suddenly opened his eyes, and a blood-red rune flashed in them.

With some difficulty, Shen Xu sat up and looked at Jiao Jiao in front of him. He stroked her smooth feathers, knowing that without Jiao Jiao, he probably wouldn't have woken up so early.

Jiaojiao opened her eyes and saw Shen Xu awake. She immediately stood up and exclaimed, "Shen Xu, you're awake!" Jiaojiao's voice sounded very surprised and delighted.

"How long have I been asleep?" He was afraid he would miss the Milky Way tidal bore.

"I don't know either. The main problem is that I don't know when you lost consciousness or what happened to you."

Feeling the emptiness in the gray mist of his soul grow even larger, Shen Xu closed his eyes in slight pain.

"It's only been a few days since things calmed down, and now they're going to start torturing me again, huh!" Shen Xu thought through gritted teeth.

"That remnant soul of the dragon noticed me." He seemed to have lost all his strength, letting his body fall heavily onto the bed.

"hiss!"

The intense pain from the purple markings made him shudder and sit up abruptly.

The scream immediately caught the attention of Guan Bi outside the door. She rushed in, but avoided looking at Shen Xu the moment she saw him.

"Guanbi, has the Milky Way tide ended? I haven't missed anything, have I?" Shen Xu asked immediately upon seeing Guanbi enter.

“You haven’t been unconscious for very long; it’s still noon on the first day of the high tide.”

"That's good!" Shen Xu immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"Oh right, I promised Qiqi I would go see her." Shen Xu patted his head and was about to get up.

"You'd better get some rest. We might be entering the Thunder Pool Secret Realm tomorrow," Guan Bi said coldly as she turned around.

Although he found Guan Bi's attitude a bit strange, he was in no mood to care about Guan Bi's feelings right now. "I'm fine. The coma was just an accident."

After saying that, he used his palms to support his body and stood up from the bed.

"Shen Xu, don't push yourself," Jiao Jiao reminded him with some concern.

Shen Xu waved his hand, "It's alright, I'll get used to it in a bit. This isn't the first time I've encountered this situation."

"Guanbi, where is Bailu?"

"Miss has already gone to Zhen Lei Feng Town to attend the ceremony."

"Do you want to come with me to suppress Lei Feng?"

I sensed the remnant soul of that dragon in the Milky Way's waters. This Milky Way tidal bore is likely extraordinary; I'm somewhat worried.

According to Bai Lu's description, the remnant soul of the dragon named 'Xuan Ting' was suppressed at the bottom of the Tianhe River by generations of powerful figures from the Tianhe Sword Sect.

Only on the third day, when the tides are at their most violent, will a trace of the dragon's soul be revealed.

However, he saw the Dragon Soul at the very beginning of the Milky Way Tide, which gave him a bad feeling.

"You saw Xuan Ting!!" Guan Bi took a step to his side, her expression becoming extremely solemn.

Shen Xu nodded slightly. "It should be. Although I have never met Xuan Ting, I can fall into a coma with just one look from him. I think there should be no one else like him in the Tianhe River."

"Oh no!" Guan Bi was immediately thrown into a state of great panic.

Seeing Guan Bi's flustered expression, Shen Xu knew that his guess was correct.

Since Xuan Ting has unsealed his power, yet remains dormant, it indicates that he has grand ambitions.

"Let's go! Let's go watch the tide!" Shen Xu said with a smile, extending his hand to Guan Bi.

Guan Bi gazed at the man's face in front of her, as if she wanted to etch his image into her heart forever.

"Shen Xu, never forget me." Guan Bi gently held Shen Xu's hand, but she never had the courage to say those words.
