1271 Rules of Heaven

"I have a really bad feeling about her— worse than that crazy bastard." Feng Yuxiang mumbled, swallowing nervously.

Xi Meili nodded, agreeing with her, "She's definitely extremely dangerous. Even if we use our full strength, I don't think we'll be able to beat her."

"If only the Young Master was here…" Feng Yuxiang sighed.

However, just as Bai Ning prepared to approach them, she suddenly halted her movements.

"Elder Sister? What's wrong?" Bai Xutao asked her after noticing something off about her.

"We're leaving," she said in a low voice.

"What? No way! We need to punish—"

"Then you can stay here. I won't be responsible for whatever happens next." Bai Ning glared at him before disappearing like a ghost without explaining any further.

Seeing this, Bai Xutao pointed at Feng Yuxiang and roared, "You guys are the first to live another day after humiliating me! But don't you dare think for a second that this is over because I have remembered your scent! I will find you later and kill you! I swear upon my surname!"

After his declaration, Bai Xutao also disappeared from the scene, leaving everyone there speechless.

"What just happened? Why did they suddenly leave?" Xi Meili was baffled by the turn of events.

The guards snapped out of their daze shortly after, and since Feng Yuxiang and Xi Meili were still there, they decided to apprehend them.

"Don't let them escape as well!" The leader of the guards shouted.

However, just as they approached them, Feng Yuxiang and Xi Meili's body suddenly looked as though they were being sucked into something, the space around them wrapping in a circular motion.

A second later, they also disappeared into thin air, leaving the guards dumbfounded.

"Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!" The leader of the guards stomped the ground in anger before ordering the others, "I want half of you to chase after them! I don't care if they left the city or not! The other half will stay behind to clean up the mess they made in the city!"

Meanwhile, Bai Xutao chased Bai Ning several thousand miles away from the scene.

When they eventually came to a halt, Bai Xutao asked her in an agitated voice, "Elder Sister! Why did you suddenly up and leave?! You could've easily killed those bastards that mocked the Immortal Monarch!"

Pap!

Bai Ning abruptly turned around and slapped him in the face, sending him flying like a ragdoll.

"You dare raise your voice at me? Are you courting death?" she sneered.

She turned to look towards the sky and mumbled a moment later, "We were being watched by someone at God Ascension. If we had stayed there for a little longer, that person would've likely attacked us."

"Huh? Why would someone at that level attack us?" Bai Xutao expressed his surprise after standing back up.

"It probably has something to do with those two you picked a fight with," she calmly said.

"I-I didn't pick a fight with them! They picked a fight with me by mocking our family and the Immortal Monarch!" Bai Xutao panicked.

"Do you really take me for a fool, you womanizing bastard? Knowing you and your tendencies, you got angry when they refused to follow you. This isn't the first time something like this has happened, either."

"I—" Bai Xutao tried to make another excuse, but he was immediately cut off by Bai Ning, "You even destroyed a city and killed innocent people. Don't think you'll get away with this. Once we return home, Father will deal with you accordingly."

Bai Xutao's body trembled in fear upon hearing her words, but his hatred for Feng Yuxiang and Xi Meili only increased, as he still blamed them for his current situation.

'I swear I will not rest until I make you bitches pay!' he cried inwardly.

Meanwhile, Feng Yuxiang and Xi Meili had been teleported to another location.

"Senior…" Feng Yuxiang realized why the Heavenly White Tigers had suddenly left when she saw Dong Ye standing before her.

"Thank you for rescuing us. If it weren't for you, we would've probably died back there." Feng Yuxiang bowed to him.

Dong Ye shook his head, "I should be apologizing for the delay. I had left this world temporarily to investigate something."

"But to pick a fight with the Heavenly White Tiger Immortal Clan, you're quite reckless."

"But they started the fight…" Xi Meili sighed.

"Regardless of how it started, they will keep an eye out for you from now on, especially Bai Xutao. But there's no need to worry. That Bai Xutao is a well-

known troublemaker, so there are usually people watching over him."

"I'm not worried about that fool at all." Feng Yuxiang said.

"I'm more worried about that woman who was with him." Xi Meili sighed.

Dong Ye shook his head and said, "Actually, there is something else that you should be worrying about right now."

"What is it?"

Dong Ye pointed above them, where the sky seemed unnaturally dark for some reason.

"What is that?" Xi Meili asked with raised eyebrows.

"N-No way…" Feng Yuxiang swallowed nervously when she saw the sky.

"Is it just me or is that a…"

"Heaven's Tribulation." Dong Ye confirmed Feng Yuxiang's worries.

"Huh?! Heaven's Tribulation?! Why is it over here?! We weren't the ones who killed those innocent people!" Xi Meili exclaimed.

"No, but you did break a rule of heaven by being a Spirit Emperor and using such powers in a place that is limited to those below Spirit Emperor." Dong Ye explained to them.

The reason why there are no Cultivators above the limit given to each world and why nobody in the upper heavens dares to descend without proper permission is simply because of the rules of heaven.

When someone violates a rule, an inescapable Heavenly Tribulation is invoked to punish the offender, with the severity of the tribulation determined by the individual's transgressions.

As Feng Yuxiang and Xi Meili had employed cultivation beyond the level of Spirit King in the Third Heaven, they had breached a rule of heaven, hence their current predicament.
