After waiting for so long, those white lightnings still didn't descend, but the pressure from the sky grew stronger with every passing second, which made them all feel uneasy.
Even the core disciples of the Lotus Sect have gathered at Ling Ling's side to console her, especially since they know very well about her feelings for Lian Bing, plus Ling Yun is also her husband.
Soon, many strong cultivators started to arrive at the Lotus Sect, and the first to arrive were Xuanyuan Xue'er and Xuanyuan Chang'er.
Xuanyuan Xue'er then landed in front of Ling Xi; she cupped her hands and greeted Ling Xi respectfully. "Greetings, Senior."
"I knew you would come here." Ling Xi replied with a smile.
Unlike Bing Xue, those elders were astonished to see Xuanyuan Xue'er being so respectful towards Ling Xi. After all, she had always been considered the strongest among them, so they didn't expect that she would act like that, but they became even more convinced by Ling Ling's earlier words.
Before long, several other people also arrived at their place, and Ling Ling raised her eyebrows for a moment when she saw Ling Ming. However, she didn't intend to greet him, as she wasn't very close to the Ling Clan.
Long Wei was the first to ask Ling Xi. "What happened in this place, Senior? Who caused this phenomenon?"
Ling Xi didn't immediately answer his question, but she glanced at Chen Wentian, Liu Ruyue, and Liu Zhen first. "Currently, Bing'er is in the process of breaking through, and this phenomenon has occurred because of her."
They gasped in shock after hearing that, especially since some of them had already broken through to the Emperor Realm and even the Saint Realm, but their breakthroughs did not produce phenomena like Lian Bing.
"How could Sect Master Lian's breakthrough cause such a phenomenon, Senior?" Yu Die asked Ling Xi.
Ling Xi explained it to her. "This phenomenon happened because Ling Yun helped Lian Bing break through, and his actions angered the Heaven, and it wanted to kill them both."
"Huh?" Yu Die and the others were shocked to hear that. They then turned to face the snowy mountain peak, but the white phenomenon obscured their vision and prevented them from assessing their condition.
"Why did Ling Yun do that? Didn't he just break through to the Soul Realm? Was his body strong enough to withstand the lightning tribulations of the Emperor Realm?" Xiao Xi bombarded Ling Xi with questions, for she was worried about her son-in-law, and she also didn't want her daughter to become a widow.
Ling Xi turned to Xiao Xi with an amused smile. "Honestly, I asked Ling Yun to help Lian Bing, for her physique would not be able to withstand her lightning tribulation. However, I did not expect that this white phenomenon would occur, and I don't know if he can withstand this last phase."
After hearing that, Xiao Xi clasped her hand in front of her chest. "You must be safe, Yun'er."
The expressions of the five people from the Zhang Clan also became extremely ugly, especially since Ling Yun was their clan's son-in-law.
Even Ling Ming and Ling Jie looked worried about Ling Yun. Although he didn't want to have any relationship with them, he was still a descendant of their clan.
Unlike them, Chen Wentian, Liu Ruyue, and Liu Zhen laughed in their hearts. They thought that Ling Yun overestimated himself, and they hoped for him to die from Lian Bing's lightning tribulation.
Meanwhile, Su Jiangwen sighed heavily after hearing that, and her expression turned sad. She had repeatedly persuaded her second daughter to be Ling Yun's wife, but Lei Qiuling had always refused her, and she had run away from their clan instead. 'Sigh, if he dies because of this, I will no longer have the chance to obtain such an amazing son-in-law.'
Huo Yun and Huo Jun wanted to ask Ling Xi about their two wives, but they suddenly felt an intense pressure descend from the sky, which forced them all to kneel on the ground. Not even Xuanyuan Xue'er and Long Wei could withstand the pressure. "What kind of pressure is this? How can this pressure be so strong?"
Ling Xi had no intention of helping them, for the pressure of the Heaven's Wrath would be of great use to them. However, she enveloped Ling Ling and the other core disciples of the Lotus Sect with her aura, especially since their cultivation was too low, and they would be crushed by the pressure.
"Hmm?" The people were surprised when they saw the two women who had suddenly appeared in the sky above them, and some of them immediately recognized their identities. However, Bing Xue and the Lotus Sect's elders did not recognize them, for they did not go to the cultivator peak.

"Hey, Long Ma! Do we have to help our Master?" Cai Hudie asked as she watched Ling Yun and Lian Bing.
Long Ma shook her head at her. "Why should we help him? The current master is different from before, and this Heaven's Wrath will not be able to kill him. However, if he survives today, the Heaven will try to kill him in the future, but it will never succeed, especially after he meets Bai Zhongyi later. Moreover, this would also be of great benefit to him, and he would be even more prepared to wade through higher realms."
Cai Hudie nodded in understanding and asked him again. "Do you think our master will continue to use that evil technique to cultivate and strengthen his ten Qi souls?"
Long Ma thought for some time before answering her question. "As long as his women are by our master's side, he will never succumb to the addiction by using that technique. However, if something bad happens to one of them, I'm sure he will continue to use it, and he will become as evil as the Chaos Dragon."
"I hope our Master will never be as evil as the Chaos Dragon, for the current him is evil enough." Cai Hudie replied as she sighed softly.
Suddenly, the sky rumbled violently, and one hundred and twenty-eight extremely powerful white lightnings descended from the sky, and they rained down on the snowy mountain peak. Their attacks caused a great shock; the snow on the mountain crumbled and rolled towards the Lotus Sect.
However, Cai Hudie and Long Ma immediately moved to stop them, and Ling Xi also moved to protect those people as she muttered. "I hope you two are doing well, Ling Yun."

After that, the whiteout phenomenon disappeared in an instant. On top of the snowy mountain peak, Ling Yun was already in his half-dragon form with Lian Bing under him, but his condition did not look good, and blood was dripping from all over his body. "Cough... Cough..."
Lian Bing, who was below him, looked at him with pain. Her heart really hurt seeing Ling Yun's condition; she then hugged him and said with teary eyes. "Husband, I'm sorry; you got seriously injured like this to protect me."
"Cough…" Ling Yun vomited blood again, and he continued to flow his Light Qi into his body. "Why are you apologizing to me? You are my wife; I certainly won't let you die before my eyes."
"But- Mhn~"
Ling Yun didn't let her speak any further and sealed her mouth by kissing her, and they kissed for a while, making his blood stick to Lian Bing's pale lips. Congratulations! You have finally reached the Lower Emperor Realm, Bing'er."
"This is all thanks to you, remember?" Lian Bing replied as she hugged Ling Yun, who had returned to his human form. "Shall we go to your Yin-Yang Chamber?"
Ling Yun smiled upon hearing that. He nodded and opened the portal to his Yin-Yang Chamber, and he immediately brought Lian Bing into it.
Not long after, Ling Xi and the others landed on the top of the snowy mountain peak, but they were shocked after they saw so much blood there, and they also couldn't find Ling Yun and Lian Bing.
When they saw that, the three members of the Chen and Liu Clans laughed in their hearts and decided to return to their clans using their returning jades, for they were certain that those powerful attacks had already killed Ling Yun and Lian Bing.
Xiao Xi then asked with a pale face. "What happened to them, Senior? Did they die from those attacks just now?"
Ling Ming and Ling Jie's faces also turned deathly pale. If Ling Yun really died, then their clan would no longer have a male heir, especially since they remembered that he had no children yet.
"You don't need to panic like this, Aunt Xi." Ling Ling said with a chuckle, for she had already contacted Ling Yun through the Harem Connection. "All these bloods are Yun'er's, but he and Sister Bing survived the last attacks, and he took her to another place to settle their private affairs."
They all turned to Ling Ling in confusion, but Bing Xue immediately took out a life stone and said to them. "This is Bing'er's; I'm sure they survived the attacks, but I don't know where they are right now."
"All right, the matter in this place is over, so all of you can return to your place." Ling Xi said to them.
Some of them immediately left the place, but some of them stayed behind, for they wanted to make sure that Ling Yun and Lian Bing were really safe.
