He wanted to get into the illusion again to search for Gu Ning, but he knew that he might not succeed. If he couldn’t find the exit the next time, Gu Ning would also be worried if she could see him after coming out. However, wasn’t there anything he could do?
Because he was worried about Gu Ning, Leng Shaoting didn’t go out. He understood that Xu Jinchen and the others must be very concerned, but Gu Ning didn’t come out yet, so he was unwilling to leave!
At the same time, Gu Ning also saw the crack and it was very close to her. She also thought that it might be the exit, and she could get out through it.
She wasn’t sure of it, but she wanted to try.
However, if she wanted to get out through the crack, she could only knock against the heavenly thunder and go up through it.
It was very dangerous, but nothing good came without risk. Therefore, no matter what the result might be, she would give it a try.
Only three heavenly thunders were left, so Gu Ning only had three chances. If she couldn’t leave through the crack within three times, she would have to think of another way.
Without delay, Gu Ning took action. She summoned up all her strength and rushed to the heavenly thunder. However, it wasn’t easy.
Gu Ning failed the first time and the heavenly thunder hit her in her arm.
Instantly, her face contorted in agony and she almost cried. Even if only her arm was hit, the force nearly killed her. She could feel that her arm could have been broken.
Fortunately, she was only injured, and her arm wasn’t broken. She survived. She was injured, but she wouldn’t give up.
After a second, two heavenly thunders came down together, which meant it was Gu Ning’s last chance.
Gu Ning summoned up her courage. Facing the heavenly thunder, she rushed to the crack.
This time, she knocked against the heavenly thunder and was heavily hit by it. Gu Ning felt that her body was about to be torn apart. Her soul trembled and she began to lose consciousness. However, she did her best not to faint and continued to rush to the crack. If she couldn’t get out through it, or the crack wasn’t the exit, all she was doing would be meaningless.
She chose to risk her life and go against the heavenly thunder simply because she wanted to leave through the crack.
If she didn’t knock against the heavenly thunder, she wouldn’t be seriously injured. Accordingly, if the crack wasn’t the exit, she would be greatly disappointed.
After the heavenly thunder finished, the crack was about to disappear.
Gu Ning was seriously injured and felt that she might give up at any moment, but she still persisted and ran towards the crack.
Finally, when the crack was about to disappear, she got out of it.
When she went into a dark space from a white space, Gu Ning couldn’t get used to it for a few seconds, so she saw nothing in front of her. However, she smelt something familiar. It was Leng Shaoting’s unique smell.
Gu Ning didn’t care whether she traveled back. She felt relieved when she smelt Leng Shaoting. She relaxed at once and lost her strength.
“Ningning.”
Leng Shaoting stood and waited outside, so he saw Gu Ning once she got out. His face lit up at once, and he also noticed that she was injured, so he supported her right away.
Leng Shaoting could see that she was injured and also felt that the energy was out of control in her body. Without delay, he helped her stabilize it. When he did that, he sensed that her level was different now and was surprised.
Given Gu Ning’s current level, she should be at the peak of the Heartbeat Stage. In other words, it was Gu Ning who was going through the heavenly tribulation just then.
Thinking of that, Leng Shaoting felt scared for her, because it was very dangerous! He was absent when she was risking her life. He even got out from the crack while she was suffering the heavenly tribulation.
Leng Shaoting felt a little guilty. Luckily, both of them survived and Gu Ning was safe although she was injured.
After Leng Shaoting’s help, the energy in Gu Ning’s body began to stabilize over time. Gu Ning’s face became ruddy as well, and she gradually regained consciousness.
“Shaoting, is it you?” Gu Ning asked with uncertainty, because she was afraid it was just an illusion.
“Yes, it’s me. We’re both out now.” Leng Shaoting could feel Gu Ning’s anxiety, and immediately hugged her to comfort her.
“Great,” said Gu Ning, feeling very relieved.
Afterwards, Gu Ning used her own magical power to cure herself. After a while, she was much better, then she stood up and left with Leng Shaoting.
“Let me carry you on my back,” said Leng Shaoting. Because Gu Ning was injured, Leng Shaoting was worried about her.
“Thanks,” said Gu Ning. She wasn’t completely well yet, but she could walk and looked fine. However, since Leng Shaoting wanted to carry her on his back, she was unwilling to reject his kindness.
There was a distance from here to the exit, so they talked with each other about what they had been through after entering the illusion.
When Leng Shaoting told his story, he hesitated to tell Gu Ning every detail, because he wasn’t sure whether he should. It wasn’t only an illusion in Leng Shaoting’s eyes, but was also something real.
“What’s wrong?” Gu Ning asked.
“Don’t be mad if I tell you,” said Leng Shaoting. He still wanted to know the answer.
“What? Did you do something that’ll upset me in the illusion?” Gu Ning joked.
Although she joked about that, it aroused her jealousy.
“Of course not!” Leng Shaoting denied at once. “It’s something else.”
“What is it? Tell me now, or I’ll really be mad,” said Gu Ning, acting angry. From Leng Shaoting’s expression, she could see that it wasn’t something normal, so she was a little nervous.
“I met you in the illusion, and a woman called Tang Aining. Tang Aining told me…”
At this moment, Leng Shaoting paused, while Gu Ning stiffened. “What did she say?” she asked.
Feeling that Gu Ning’s body stiffened, Leng Shaoting was sure that what Tang Aining had told him might be true. However, he still wanted to hear the answer from Gu Ning’s mouth.
Even if it was the truth, he didn’t mind. He was only worried that what had happened in the illusion might happen in their real life..
