Chapter 237 - Advanced Successfully, Quasi

Roar!

A joyful roar resounded through the Heavens and Earth. At this moment, Little Nine stood up once again. The injuries caused by the previous lightning tribulation had long since disappeared, as if it had never happened.

Not only that, Little Nine’s appearance had also changed quite a bit.

One could see that the originally pure white fur was slightly revealing a golden color. There were also a couple of golden lines appearing all over his body, making him appear even more noble.

However, Little Nine’s body once again erupted with a golden glow in the next moment. After which, his originally large body swiftly shrunk.

After which, the golden glow disappeared. Gu Xi looked over and was stunned.

At this moment, there was no Nine-tailed Celestial Fox in front of him anymore. All that was left was an extremely beautiful woman whose clothes were not covering her body.

The woman had a shocking appearance, and her long and narrow phoenix eyes were somewhat charming. As for her figure, Gu Xi did not dare to look at it too much. In short, it was just a sentence that was impeccable!

“This lady… this might get awkward, right?”

Gu Xi looked to the side and coughed a few times awkwardly.

“Master, don’t you recognize me? I’m Little Nine!” the woman said with some grievance.

Hearing this, the doubts in Gu Xi’s heart immediately disappeared.

Only then did he remember that demonic beasts could transform into human forms after reaching a certain level of strength. In that case, the woman in front of him was no other than Little Nine!

However, he did not expect Little Nine to be a female Nine-tailed Celestial Fox.

Thinking of this, Gu Xi hurriedly looked at Little Nine, but when she saw the latter’s naked appearance, he hurriedly turned his head back, “You put on your clothes first.”

Upon receiving the order, Little Nine also hurriedly transformed a dress onto her body.

“It looks like you’ve successfully advanced.”

After sizing up the extremely beautiful Little Nine in front of her, Gu Xi smiled and said.

“Of course. It’s just a Lightning Tribulation. How can it obstruct my path?” Little Nine raised her eyebrows with some pride.

“Since that’s the case, we should leave quickly.”

Gu Xi nodded and did not stay any longer. He took the lead and left.

The commotion caused by Little Nine’s advancement just now was really too big. Although they were currently in the depths of the Phantom Forest, such a huge commotion would definitely not escape the detection of some of the factions around the forest. It was hard to guarantee that no one would come to investigate.

If they met these people, it would inevitably bring trouble to them.

Moreover, Gu Xi had been worried about the safety of Fang Qinyu and the others.

Very quickly, Gu Xi returned to his previous position, but Fang Qinyu and Li Junyan had already disappeared without a trace.

As for Zhou Haozhe, he had already died a long time ago.

“They have most likely returned to Moyu Tower.”

Gu Xi checked the surroundings, but still could not find any traces of the two. After coming to a conclusion, she quickly left this place and headed straight for Moyu Tower.

Not long after he left, many powerful auras rushed towards the Phantom Forest from all directions and quickly arrived at the spot where Little Nine had advanced.

“From the looks of it, it should be the sound of a demon beast advancing.”

A middle-aged man glanced at the charred ground that had been struck by the Thunder Tribulation. “The pressure from before is definitely not from an ordinary demon beast.”

“Since when did the Phantom Forest have such a powerful demon beast?”

Everyone was talking about it, but they could not come to a conclusion.

…

On the other side, at the Moyu Tower.

Fang Qingshan, Fang Qinyu, Li Junyan, and the other disciples of Moyu Tower were gathered here.

“I must go and find Big Brother Gu!” in the hall, Fang Qinyu said firmly.

“Nonsense!”

Hearing this, Fang Qingshan, who was sitting on the main seat, had a slight change in expression. He could not help but berate, “Now that the situation in Phantom Forest is unclear, if you go now, not only will you not be able to find Gu Xi, but you might even lose yourself in there!”

Even Mo Yu Tower could clearly sense the strange phenomenon that had occurred in the Phantom Forest. Naturally, he would not allow Fang Qinyu to go.

“Are we not going to care about Big Brother Gu?” Fang Qinyu tightly pursed her lips as tears flickered in her eyes.

“Don’t worry. With the level that Gu Xi has displayed, it is likely that he will not die so easily in the Phantom Forest.” Li Junyan also opened his mouth to console him at this moment.

Fang Qingshan nodded in agreement and said, “That’s right. In my opinion, Gu Xi’s ability is far beyond this. He definitely has other tricks up his sleeve. There is no need for us to worry about him here.”

However, Fang Qingshan was still extremely worried in his heart. However, he did not show it because Fang Qinyu was present.

Although Gu Xi had the ability to control the Winged Golden Black Bug, the fluctuation that erupted from the Phantom Forest was too terrifying. The chances of him surviving were slim!

‘Maybe it was right to refuse to let him go with me,’ Fang Qingshan sighed slightly and thought to himself.

At the same time, two figures walked into the hall side by side, attracting everyone’s attention.

“Gu Xi?!”

“Oh my God, he’s still alive!”

Seeing the person who had come, Fang Qinyu was instantly overjoyed. She rushed up and snuggled into Gu Xi’s arms, hugging him tightly. “That’s great, I knew you would be fine.”

Sensing Fang Qinyu’s worry, Gu Xi was also very touched. He gently patted Fang Qinyu’s back and said softly, “Don’t worry, I won’t die so easily.”

“Cough cough…”

Just as Fang Qinyu was about to say something else, a cough sounded from behind her.

Only then did Fang Qinyu react. She appeared to be overly concerned about Gu Xi in front of this group of disciples. Soon after, a flush surfaced on her pretty face as she fled from Gu Xi and hid behind Fang Qingshan.

“It is unexpected that Little Friend Gu is actually safe and sound.”

Fang Qingshan also heaved a sigh of relief. Immediately, his gaze shifted slightly and landed on Little Nine beside him. He asked with some doubt, “This is?”

“This is my… friend. You can just call her Little Nine.” Gu Xi spoke without changing his expression.

On the way back, Gu Xi originally wanted to let Little Nine return to the Spirit Beast Space. However, Little Nine now possessed the ability to transform. She did not want to return. Instead, she wanted to follow beside Gu Xi. In a fancy way, she could protect him closely.

Indeed, now that he had lost all of his cultivation, he really needed someone to protect him, not to mention a divine beast that had reached the Quasi-saint stage.

Helpless, Gu Xi could only agree.

Hearing Gu Xi’s explanation, Fang Qingshan smiled and nodded. Then, he sized up Little Nine, and his heart immediately stirred up a storm.

He could not see through this woman!
