Ji Youzhi, who was sprawled to one side gasping for breath, hurriedly shouted.
Xiaosuisui blinked and quickly asked, "What should we do? It spat out so many black balls, then suddenly fainted. I was so panicked that I..."
Xiaosuisui was almost in tears. Since coming to the Ji Family, from the day her Seventh Uncle brought Xiaobai back, she had kept Xiaobai by her side and had long grown accustomed to its presence.
Seeing Xiaobai suddenly faint now, Xiaosuisui was overcome with worry. Thatâs why she had hastily knocked Xiaobai unconscious without considering her own strength.
Hearing Xiaosuisuiâs question, Ji Youzhi helplessly reminded her, "Didnât you learn Medical Skill from your Second Uncle? Why donât you take its pulse to find out whatâs wrong?"
"Oh!"
At this moment, Xiaosuisui, suddenly acting like an adorably clueless child, quickly grabbed Xiaobaiâs paw. Closing her eyes slightly, she instantly transformed into a little veterinarian.
Ji Youzhi wanted to laugh at the sight, but he desperately held it back. If his beloved niece noticed any sign that he was making fun of her, it would be quite unfortunate.
ăOutside the Array of Heaven, on Yunzhou Island.ă
Everyone was staring intently at the Array. Suddenly, Yun Kuoâs eyes widened, and he exclaimed, "The Array is showing activity, Grandfather! Has Xiaosuisui passed the Second Level?"
Old Island Master Yun chuckled, stroking his beard and nodding with a smile. "Yes! Sheâs cleared the Second Level."
"She actually cleared it! The time she used for this Second Level isnât even half of what she took for the First Level!" Yun Cang murmured in astonishment.
Others beside them also echoed, "Yes! This was far too quick. The Second Level is said to be extremely dangerous! Didnât Ji Shang say the Second Level is the hardest of all the Levels? If the person in the Array hadnât reached the Thunder Tribulation stage through Celestial Thunder Body Tempering, entering this Array would most likely end in disaster!"
As these words were spoken, Yun Cangâs gaze involuntarily fell upon Old Island Master Yunâs face. With a voice trembling from excitement, he asked Old Island Master Yun, "Father, could it be that Xiaosuisuiâs Power has already surpassed mine, that she was able to withstand the Thunder Tribulation, and thatâs how she cleared this Second Level so quickly?"
Old Island Master Yun shook his head, gently stroked his beard, and said softly, "Her own Power is profound, which puzzles me greatly. Even if she began cultivating from the womb, she shouldnât possess such deep Power at only four or five years old. Yet, despite this, I transferred all my Power to her! But even after receiving all my Power, her Power still doesnât surpass yours! She shouldnât have been able to clear the Level this quickly!"
Old Island Master Yun was puzzled, but then he heard Yun Kuoâs voice in his ear. "Grandfather, Father, have you forgotten about the black and white creatures that followed Suisui into the Array?"
"Huh! Kuo, do you know something?"
Yun Kuo hurriedly stepped forward to answer, "Grandfather! Father! After Suisui entered the Array, didnât two Demons, one black and one white, follow her in?"
At Yun Kuoâs words, Old Island Master Yun suddenly remembered and stroked his beard. "A black python about to transform into a Jiao... it would indeed need to undergo a tribulation. Among the Demons near Yunzhou Island, the one about to undergo the tribulation to become a Jiao... could it be the one from Black Water Ridge?"
With Old Island Master Yunâs words, the others also had a moment of realization.
"In that case, we need to prepare. When they pass through the Fourth Level, it will be a matter of life and death for us. Is everyone ready? Itâs time for us to do something for this world."
At Old Island Master Yunâs words, many people were confused, but the faces of Yun Cang and Yun Kuo showed a resolute expression, as if ready to face death.
ăWithin the Array of Heaven.ă
Xiaosuisui had put the large pile of small black spheres into her Sleeve of Qiankun, filling it to the brim.
"You donât even know what these things are for, so why are you collecting all of them? Arenât you afraid theyâll take up space?" Ji Youzhi frowned and asked, watching Xiaosuisui gather all those dark, unremarkable things.
"Although Xiaobai spat these out, it deliberately spat them in front of me, clearly meaning for me to collect them. Right now, I donât know their use, but once Xiaobai wakes up, we can just ask it, canât we?" Xiaosuisui giggled and said, instantly rendering Ji Youzhi speechless.
"Youâre always right, no matter what," Ji Youzhi said helplessly. He then added, "We cleared the Second Level relatively quickly. There should still be some time before the Third Level, right? Suisui, why donât you tell me about your maternal grandfather? Can you actually find your maternal grandfather?"
Xiaosuisui blinked and pondered for a moment.
Seventh Uncle is right!
Since it was still early, she said, "So far, I havenât tried entering my maternal grandfatherâs Dream Realm. Seventh Uncle, please keep watch for me. Iâll enter the Dream Realm now to try and find my maternal grandfather. If the Third Level starts and Iâm still not out, just shake me hard to wake me up, okay?"
Ji Youzhi was overjoyed when he heard this and quickly responded, "Great, great, great! Go quickly. Donât worry, Iâll definitely protect you well."
Xiaosuisui immediately sat cross-legged and entered the Dream Realm.
As soon as Xiaosuisui entered, she took out a strand of her maternal grandfatherâs hair.
What should I say when I see him? Should I call him âMaternal Grandfatherâ right away? Or maybe âOld Grandpa?â
With this thought, she closed her eyes and began to activate the strand of hair in her hand.
However, a long time passed. Not only did the strand of hair show no change whatsoever, but her maternal grandfather also failed to appear in the Dream Realm as she had hoped!
