My Wife Might Be a Saintess

Chapter 340: Chapter 339: The Final Material, Celestial Tribulation

After a moment of thought, Jiang Zuo nodded and said, "Su Qi told me not to go beat up the Elements."

Yue Xi: "..."

Jiang Zuo knew Yue Xi must have a reason for bringing this up now. She understood Su Qi. Su Qi was far too protective of her husband; there was no way she would let him take any risks.

But Yue Xi was different. As long as no one died, nothing else mattered. Besides, it wasn’t like he hadn’t beaten them up before. Worst case, he could just run for it.

This was what Jiang Zuo guessed. Unfortunately, he was right.

This was exactly why Yue Xi had called.

Normally, with Su Qi around, this would be a non-starter. But now, she probably figured she could use her status as his elder to appeal to his heart and reason.

"Auntie has told you before: a real man should have a mind of his own. Su Qi is just a woman; you can’t listen to everything she says."

Yue Xi had barely finished speaking when Jiang Zuo said again, "Su Qi told me not to beat up the Elements."

Yue Xi tried to persuade him patiently. "If you went, what could Su Qi say? Is she going to divorce you over it? Besides, you can push all the blame onto your auntie.

Just think, if you succeed, you’ll achieve fame and glory. Su Qi is your wife; she’ll surely be proud of you.

And even if you fail, you have the Light and Shadow Mask. Who could possibly touch you?

Escaping unscathed would be incredibly simple.

Besides, I can even make the executive decision to give you the Light and Shadow Mask. It’s Sister Jingyue’s stolen goods, after all. It’s risky for you to even be holding on to it."

Jiang Zuo still had only one reply: "Su Qi told me not to beat up the Elements."

"..." Yue Xi said, "This is making your auntie a little disappointed. Su Qi has a very gentle personality. If you’re a bit more firm, she’ll definitely listen to you."

Jiang Zuo: "Su Qi won’t let me."

Yue Xi: "..."

Finally, Yue Xi said, "Fine, I get it. Wake Su Qi up in two days and have her start Crossing the Tribulation.

I’ll have the people on East Water Island prepare a Tribulation Crossing Array.

Oh, and don’t worry. Even if she fails, nothing bad will happen. Your auntie will arrange everything.

You don’t need to worry. Instead, maybe you should think about how to be a proper man."

Yue Xi then hung up. The man was exasperating.

’He listens to my disciple for everything. How is that acceptable? Now how am I supposed to pull my little schemes? I’ll have to waste a fortune again.’

After hanging up, Jiang Zuo wasn’t particularly bothered.

’Does he not have a mind of his own?’

’That’s impossible.’

’So why did he listen to Su Qi?’

Because he was afraid.

’Afraid of what?’

He was afraid of hurting Su Qi, of making her sad.

If it could put Su Qi’s mind at ease, then seeming to lack a mind of his own and simply listening to her was a price well worth paying.

He didn’t care what other people thought of him; he only cared what Su Qi thought.

Jiang Zuo glanced back at the room where Su Qi was in seclusion. To him, she was his everything, his entire world.

In his past life, he hadn’t possessed his current knowledge or abilities, and so he had missed his chance with her.

In this life, he could abandon anything, but never Su Qi.

’But what was that Auntie just said?’

’She’s going to find someone to help Su Qi prepare a Tribulation Crossing Array?’

’Who else could Auntie find on East Water Island? Besides that Shui Luo, there’s no one, right?’

At this thought, Jiang Zuo opened the group chat again and tagged Liu Yiyi: "@Liu Yiyi, to solve the problem, I need one more crucial material."

Liu Yiyi replied immediately: "Please go ahead, Fellow Daoist. We haven’t shipped anything out yet."

Po Xiao: "A Celestial Tribulation. One for advancing from Tier Two to Tier Three would be best. The person must undergo their tribulation on Celestial Water Island, at a fixed location."

Liu Yiyi was stunned when she saw Po Xiao’s request.

’A Celestial Tribulation?’

’Are they really playing for such high stakes?’

Liu Yiyi: "Fellow Daoist, won’t that destroy East Water Island?"

Po Xiao: "A tribulation for advancing from Tier Two to Tier Three isn’t that powerful. It won’t go that far."

Liu Yiyi: "Okay, I’ll tell my master right away and ask her to cooperate fully. By the way, Fellow Daoist, can you tell me the approximate success rate?"

Po Xiao: "Thirty percent."

’The success rate wasn’t high, but it had an eighty percent chance of helping Su Qi pass her own Celestial Tribulation, and a one hundred percent chance of allowing her to temporarily escape from it.’

’Jiang Zuo had prepared this array specifically for Su Qi.’

But to Liu Yiyi, thirty percent was already very high.

Others didn’t even have a one percent chance.

And if Fellow Daoist Po Xiao said thirty percent, he absolutely wasn’t exaggerating.

Everyone in the group knew one thing: there were many things Fellow Daoist Po Xiao disdained to do.

It was the pride of a powerhouse.

Mo Yan had been the one to say it, but they all strongly agreed.

If Po Xiao said he could solve something, he could solve it. If he said he was confident, he was confident.

He would never exaggerate.

So Liu Yiyi immediately contacted her master, Shui Luo Magic Master.

"Yiyi? Have you guys arrived?" Shui Luo asked over the phone.

She was very fond of this student of hers. The girl’s way of cultivating Magic was especially bizarre; she had never seen such a blinding Holy Light.

"Teacher, I’ve found someone who can solve the problem," Liu Yiyi said.

Shui Luo was surprised. "But I haven’t met this person you mentioned. He hasn’t contacted me."

Liu Yiyi said, "He says he already understands the problem and is thirty percent confident he can solve it, but he needs something extremely important."

’Thirty percent?’

’Those odds were ridiculously high. This person either had real skill or was just full of hot air.’

"What important thing does he need?" Shui Luo asked. What the other party requested would easily reveal whether or not they were a scammer.

"A Celestial Tribulation," Liu Yiyi said. "Preferably one for advancing from Tier Two to Tier Three."

Shui Luo froze. "What? He needs what?"

Shui Luo had considered many possibilities—extremely precious Spirit Medicines, Magical Treasures, rare materials, even people were all things she had anticipated.

But she had absolutely never expected him to ask for a Celestial Tribulation.

’What kind of material was that?’

’But a Celestial Tribulation... The man really dared to think big. He was far crazier than they were.’

Suddenly, she was starting to believe him.

Because the request was simply too outlandish.

"A Celestial Tribulation," Liu Yiyi explained. "Simply put, we need to find someone who is about to undergo their tribulation."

’I must have scared my teacher just now,’ she thought. ’As expected, Po Xiao’s way of thinking is far beyond anyone else’s.’

’Even her Tier Six teacher couldn’t comprehend it.’

’Yet everyone in the group accepted it without question. Suddenly, I feel like we’ve surpassed our teacher.’

She was filled with a sense of pride.

Shui Luo thought for a moment, then asked, "Is this person trustworthy? And what are the specifics of this tribulation plan? Will it help the person who’s actually undergoing it?"

This had to be made clear; Crossing the Tribulation was a matter of life and death.

Finding someone advancing from Tier Two to Tier Three might not be difficult, but they wouldn’t be coming here just to die.

Without sufficient guarantees, no one would risk their life to help.

No amount of money could persuade them.

Liu Yiyi said, "I don’t know yet, but I’ll be arriving this afternoon. I can ask about it then.

As for whether this person is trustworthy, Teacher... I can’t guarantee that. But I can guarantee his abilities."

Finally, Shui Luo nodded. "I understand. Regardless of success or failure, your teacher won’t blame you for anything.

Oh, and while you’re enjoying yourselves on East Water Island, just show them the badge I gave you. It’s all free, no matter how many people are with you."

"Thank you, Teacher." There were plenty of fun things to do on East Water Island.

And they were all poor—oh, wait, Liuyue Xue and Mo Yan had money now.

Mo Yan would definitely want to show off. Now he wouldn’t get the chance, since nothing would cost money.

Her mood instantly improved.
