I didn't expect that I was the heartthrob.

Chapter 151 Breakthrough

Gu Lan took a while to open his eyes.

Hanging in front of Gu Lan was a gorgeous scale.

Gu Lan recognized the scales.

That was the scale given to me by Jing Lian. I thought it was a souvenir, but it turned out to be a treasure.

But before Gu Lan could be happy for long, he found himself being led into the air by the scales.

The powerful attraction carried her into the sky, away from Lingyao's water curtain. Looking down from the sky, the audience in the stands could also see everything.

Gu Lan tried to struggle, but found that her body was very soft and she had no strength at all. Then she curled up half-automatically and half-forced.

Soon she was in a position with her hands on her knees.

This……

What is this for?

Just when Gu Lan was confused, she immediately smelled damp vapor and heard rumbling thunder in the distance.

Cultivators are very sensitive to thunder tribulations. Sometimes their perception is so strong that they can calculate exactly when and where a thunder tribulation will occur. But sometimes they can only sense the presence of a thunder tribulation, and as to when and where it will occur, it all depends on God's will.

There is also an exception. Due to various reasons, the cultivator cannot sense the thunder tribulation. He does not know when the thunder tribulation will occur, where or when it will occur. Everything is unknown.

When Gu Lan smelled the familiar scent and heard the familiar thunder, he immediately realized that his thunder tribulation had finally arrived.

The audience in the auditorium also understood at this time who was about to break through. Looking at the light in the air, everyone knew clearly in their minds that Gu Lan was about to break through.

The thunder approached rapidly, blurring everyone's eardrums.

In just a split second, a beam of golden light suddenly shot over from a distance and instantly swallowed up that piece of light.

Gu Lan was completely enveloped and could not utter a single sound. He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of black blood. His head tilted and he was suddenly completely plunged into darkness.

Seeing the golden lightning flying strangely from a distance and hitting Gu Lan accurately, Yun Tiannan stood up suddenly. Several disciples also became nervous and wanted to leave their seats and move closer, but Yun Tiannan stopped them.

"This thunder tribulation is too strange. You must not get too close."

"But it's too dangerous for you, Senior Sister!" Xu Fengxi said, holding the railing tightly.

The other junior brothers also looked anxious.

Yun Tiannan said, "The light just now seemed to be protecting us, so we should be fine."

Although he said this, Yun Tiannan twisted his hands together anxiously.

As soon as he finished speaking, the brilliant light that enveloped Gu Lan suddenly exploded and turned into countless stars that quickly rushed towards the audience seats. Everyone exclaimed and tried to dodge, but the starlight extinguished and fell before it reached the audience seats.

Then a cloak that was also shining with pearls flew out.

It slowly wrapped up Gu Lan who was floating in the air, forming a silkworm cocoon-like shape.

The light is the same as before.

Seeing this, the leaders and elders of other sects also slowly stood up.

They saw the mermaid cloak!

It appeared once ten thousand years ago, but after the mermaid left and sank into the Cangwu abyss, no one has seen it since.

Now it has reappeared.

It appeared on a disciple of Qianji Sect.

In addition, this thunder tribulation was extremely strange and had never been seen before.

The thunderbolt does not strike straight down, but shoots out from a certain place, and it is so fast that it is almost impossible to defend against it.

If you are not protected, you will definitely die if you are hit.

Fortunately, Gu Lan has a mermaid cloak.

Then another flash of lightning shot out from nowhere, followed by another, and another.

No one knew how many times he was struck, but Gu Lan was still wrapped up, and no one knew what was going on inside.

Everyone was worried for Gu Lan. Such a dense and tricky thunder tribulation had never been seen before.

The competition arena had been struck by lightning. Lingyao, who was originally standing on the field, was caught off guard when the first lightning strike came. If the leader of Tianyan Sect had not acted quickly, she would have been almost affected.

After everything was over, everyone moved their stiff bodies. During the thunder tribulation, no one dared to move for fear of being affected.

When the pearly light faded away, the cloak was revealed again.

The cloak was intact, but it had lost its aura and became an ordinary cloak.

Someone in the audience finally recognized what it was and his eyes suddenly widened.

"Is it a mermaid cloak!?"

"what?"

"It's a mermaid cloak!"

The man said with certainty, "I never thought I'd see the mermaid cloak again! I have no regrets even if I die! I have no regrets even if I die!"

Everyone stood there in a daze, and Gu Lan, who was slowly falling, looked like a broken leaf.

All the members of Qianjimen flew towards the dilapidated competition arena, and Yun Tiannan caught Gu Lan steadily.

When Gu Lan landed steadily on his arms, he could not even feel Gu Lan's weight, as if a feather had landed on his arms.

The cloak turned into a point of light and disappeared. Gu Lan felt heavy again in his arms, but his body temperature was ridiculously high.

Yun Tiannan did not dare to delay and immediately took Gu Lan to the cold pond in the back mountain.

At this time, Jing Lian, who was far away in the Cangwu Abyss, spat out a mouthful of blood. The blood fell on the skin that had lost its scales and quickly turned into a blood-red scale bud.

The heart-protecting shield he placed on Gu Lan was broken.

Gu Lan survived the thunderstorm safely.

Great.

Jing Lian's mother Jing Lingyun walked in and saw Jing Lian looking pale and weakly lying on a chair with a complicated expression on his face.

She sighed, but ultimately failed to stop Jing Lian from falling in love with a human.

"I've already said that if you come into contact with a monk, you'll get hurt sooner or later."

"Mom." Jing Lian didn't look at her mother, but smiled. "I'm very happy."

"What are you so happy about? Your heart-protecting scales have been broken, and it will take a long time for them to grow back. Without them, no matter how powerful your magic power is, you will still be vulnerable. Moreover, it is difficult for injuries to heal. Have you thought about the consequences?"

Jing Lian did not answer his mother's question, but asked: "Did mother think the same way when she gave Hu Xinlin to him?"

She did not speak.

"Was mother as happy as she was back then?" Jing Lian continued to ask.

"Alas." She finally sighed, holding Jing Lian's hand, her heart loosened, and she touched Jing Lian's forehead helplessly, just like when she was a child, with infinite love, "Child, I'm always afraid that one day you will repeat the same mistakes, but fate has pushed you to the same situation as I was back then... I want to continue to stop you but can't change your mind, but will make you more painful... I can accept her, but you must leave her here, then I will agree."

Jing Lingyun was relieved, but not willingly. She just couldn't change her son's mind. Rather than seeing him so depressed and sad, it would be better to help them.

There was a flash of light in Jing Lian's eyes, but when he thought of Gu Lan's eyes, he lowered his gaze again.

Will she stay for me?

Such a vast world?

But my mother agreed, maybe...
