In this way, he could make the best use of the corpse.
At this time, he could not consume the True Void Pills and Wonderful Sound Pills as his magic power had yet to advance to the Void Refinement Realm. Thus, he kept the two bottles for his future use.
Afterward, he inspected the pouch again using his spirit sense and checked the other items. All of a sudden, his eyes flickered with interest.
There was actually a flying sword that was an imitation of the Immortal Slaying Sword.
Even though it was just an imitation, it contained a trace of the Immortal Slaying Sword’s sword qi.
Without hesitation, Ning Fan pointed at the flying sword and turned it into a sword light and kept it inside his Sea of Consciousness.
He wanted to slowly refine that flying sword and integrate that trace of sword qi into his Sea of Consciousness. If he succeeds, it would certainly increase the power of his sword consciousness.
Then, Ning Fan rummaged through the pouch to take out some useful items and left the rest inside the pouch for the ladies to distribute equally among themselves later.
After going through the spoils of war, Ning Fan took out the storage pouch which Yun Daoku gave to him.
Clearly, the quality of this pouch was far better than Ning Fan’s old storage pouch. Ning Fan was planning on replacing his old pouch with it from now onward.
This pouch contained some items from the Rain Sovereign as well as the token which was his proof of identity as the Scarlet Heaven Palace Lord.
However, Ning Fan was not actually looking at what was inside the pouch at it. He was staring at the pouch itself with a dignified gaze.
After a long while, his eyes glinted. He produced a trace of golden purple mist on his finger and placed it above the pouch.
"A tracking formation huh?!"
*Zi* *Zi* *Zi*
An extremely obscure formation technique on the storage pouch was being eroded by the mist while giving off a sizzling noise.
If Ning Fan was not mistaken, the formation technique was some type of tracking magic technique.
The reason why the Rain Sovereign set up the formation technique on this storage pouch was naturally because he wanted to know Ning Fan’s whereabouts at every given moment.
Perhaps the Rain Sovereign only wanted to know where Ning Fan was going. It was also possible that he harbored an ulterior motive which was to send someone after him and kill him while his guard was done after he outlived his use...
No matter what intentions the Rain Sovereign had in mind, Ning Fan did not like letting others know his location.
He had already shown his hands at the Rain Sovereign through Yun Daoku’s mouth. If the Rain World does not go against him, he certainly would not go against the Rain World.
However, if the Rain Sovereign harbored malicious intentions against him in the future... Ning Fan would make him pay even if he had to flatten the Rain Palace!
"It’s an excellent magic technique. The golden purple mist could even destroy Yun Zongxuan’s ’Rain Pursuing Technique’. I’m truly impressed. It’s clear that you can certainly accomplish the thing that I need your help with."
In the next instant, a cold female voice was heard from outside the door. Then, a lady in red robes walked in with a hint of surprise in her blood-red eyes.
Ning Fan was slightly startled. He had never expected that Hong Yi would come at this moment. He hung the pouch woven from the threads of rain and dew on his waist and kept his old storage pouch and the miscellaneous items on the bed into the new pouch. After that, he stood up and welcomed her with a smile.
"Thanks to your Life Returning Pill, my injuries are now already fully healed."
"You don’t need to thank me. Since you are still useful to me, I naturally can’t have you get hurt."
Hong Yi waved her hand with blood-red eyes filled with indifference but were actually thinking otherwise and said, "Since you have fully recovered, help me accomplish an important matter. I originally thought that you would need at least several tens of years before you can be strong enough to help me. However, it’s a huge surprise to me that you have already achieved the Peak Void Inquiry Stage in such a short period of time. At your current level, you are good enough to help me with that. You’ll now follow me into the Sovereign Tomb and help me accomplish it!"
"May I ask what kind of help does Lady Hong Yi need from me? What is the important matter that we are going to accomplish?!" Ning Fan asked again.
"You don’t need to ask too many questions! Just follow me into the Sovereign Tomb. You will just do whatever I ask you to do. That’s all! When the time comes, I’ll tell you what you should know!"
"I see... Since you already said so, I won’t ask about it anymore. I suppose you’ll tell me everything after we enter the Sovereign Tomb. Lady Hong Yi, please don’t worry. No matter how dangerous it’ll be in the Sovereign Tomb, I will do my best to help you accomplish what you are planning to do."
"It’s good enough that you have this intention. As for your safety, you don’t have to worry about it. With me by your side, I won’t let you encounter any danger inside the tomb!"
Hong Yi’s tone was domineering and confident. Well, if Ning Fan is with her, can he really suffer any injury inside the tomb?
Ning Fan carefully studied Hong Yi. All he could feel right now was that the lady in front of him was much more heroic and braver than any man.
When he was sighing emotionally, Hong Yi waved one of her hands and shut all the doors and windows.
*Slam*
Then, staring at Ning Fan with her usual cold blood-red eyes, she calmly took off every piece of her clothing.
"Erm... Why are you taking off your clothes...?" Feeling helpless, Ning Fan avoided eye contact and asked.
Didn’t she say she wanted him to enter the Sovereign Tomb with her? Why was she taking off her clothes? It completely had nothing to do with entering the tomb, right?
"I am in the form of a primordial spirit. To be more accurate, I am currently only half of my primordial spirit. My physical body and the other half of my primordial spirit are kept inside the tomb. I can’t easily enter the tomb with my incomplete primordial spirit. Which is why I need your separated soul and enter the tomb together with you. Why haven’t you taken off your clothes yet?!"
"What do you mean? Do I also have to take off my clothes?" Ning Fan was a little confused about the situation. In just a few breaths, Hong Yi had fully undressed herself, standing in front of Ning Fan with her naked snow-white body. Even so, Ning Fan did not dare to desecrate her.
Who knows if he might provoke this lady to kill him if he peeks at her naked body?
"I meant what I said literally. Why aren’t you taking off your clothes?! Don’t tell me you want me to help you take off your clothes!" Hong Yi sounded displeased. With her cold blood-red eyes, she pushed Ning Fan, whose eyes were closed, to the bed and got on top of him while her hands were deftly undoing the buttons of his clothing.
"You are the first person who was bold enough to ask me to help you undress yourself!"
Ning Fan rubbed his forehead, feeling that he could not keep up with Hong Yi’s thinking.
Even though he had yet to figure out why he had to take off his clothes, judging from Hong Yi’s serious behavior, he knew that it must have a deep reason behind it and thus he did not act shy.
Thunder Sovereign Bu Zhou, who was now a lady, did not even mind taking off her clothes. What does he have to think about since he would not be losing out in the end?
He gently pushed Hong Yi away and shook his head speechlessly. He was not that weak and feeble to need Hong Yi to help him undress himself.
He opened his eyes calmly and took off all of his garments. Then, he looked at Hong Yi with composure without having the slightest trace of lust in his eyes.
"I’ve taken off all my clothes. What’s next?"
