I Might Be A Fake Cultivator Chapter 1039

Chapter 1039: Two People With Tacit Understanding

The huge Spirit Fish Clan statue’s eyes could move, which was a bit unsettling and disconcerting.

However, An Lin didn’t take much notice of it after being accustomed to it. No matter how bad*ss it was, the fact of the matter was that it was only a statue. What was it going to do? Come alive and beat him up?

“So you’re saying this was your former High Priest, Xi Haizi? So… a handsome man like him fell in love with a turtle?!” An Lin regurgitated Lan Xiaoni’s words before turning to her in astonishment.

He wasn’t interested in hearing Gu Yu tell its love story before, but thinking about it now, this was way too f*cking stimulating!

He had always thought that it was a male turtle that had fallen in love with a female mermaid, but who would have thought that it would a handsome mermaid falling in love with a female turtle? This would be as horrifying as someone like Xuanyuan Cheng falling in love with Qing Hua!

Lan Xiaoni was a little perplexed, and she c.o.c.ked her head to the side before replying in a feeble voice, “This… was always an interspecies relations.h.i.+p. Is there a problem with that?”

She discovered that she was simply on a different wavelength to An Lin.

Was this the logic of powerful beings?

An Lin waved his hands with a resigned expression.

He was finding it a bit difficult to accept a relations.h.i.+p like this, so he could only avert his gaze to direct his attention elsewhere.

However, after looking around, he found that the place was absolutely empty.

Was this statue the only treasure here? What the f*ck?!

“Welcome, fated ones, to my joint tomb with Tian Chenji.”

A loud voice suddenly erupted like thunder from the statue’s mouth.

An Lin turned toward the statue and looked into its round eyes.

He stroked his chin with a thoughtful expression.

This talking statue should be worth some money, right?

Lan Xiaoni’s hands clenched into nervous fists. This ancient High Priest could talk!

“You have chosen the road to treasures, so you must demonstrate sufficient strength. If you die on the path to pursuing treasures, then it can only be a sign that our fate is destined to end here.”

The statue slowly splayed open its hands.

Boom!

Six b.a.l.l.s with different colored lights appeared before An Lin and Lan Xiaoni.

The b.a.l.l.s of lights were black, white, blue, yellow, green, and red.

“Each of these b.a.l.l.s of lights leads to a different world in which you can obtain a different paramount treasure. Now then, please choose one,” the Xi Haizi statue said with a smile.

Lan Xiaoni pointed toward the blue ball of light. “I want to go to this world.”

An Lin pointed toward the yellow ball of light. “I want to go to this world.”

The two of them chose different worlds.

Lan Xiaoni’s heart was full of excitement. She knew that her chance had arrived!

The two of them were going to different worlds, so she could finally escape from An Lin and regain her freedom to search for her own treasures.

The statue spoke again.

“Please choose the same ball of light.”

Lan Xiaoni: “…”

“Then, should we go again?” An Lin turned toward Lan Xiaoni with a smile.

Lan Xiaoni forced a smile onto her face with great difficulty. “Sure!”

They both chose again.

An Lin chose the yellow ball of light again.

Lan Xiaoni also chose the yellow ball of light.

The two of them quickly came to a consensus with no discussion and no conflict, as if they had a tacit understanding.

“Alright, I’ll be teleporting the two of you to the yellow ball realm.” The Xi Haizi statue spoke with an elated expression, “You sure are a harmonious couple.”

Lan Xiaoni: “…”

An Lin: “…”

Was this stupid statue misunderstanding something?

Even though they entered the tomb together, that didn’t mean they were a couple!

An Lin was just about to let loose a torrent of abuse when the yellow ball of light quickly expanded to engulf the two of them.

Another dreadful burst of dizziness befell them.

An Lin felt as if he was about to throw up. Aside from his acrophobia and phobia toward Sword Kinesis Flight, he felt he had now developed a phobia toward teleportation.

The s.p.a.ce around them transformed.

They had appeared in a desert where yellow sand blew through the air as far as the eyes could see.

The sky above seemed to have been scorched by flames, and golden clouds tumbled and surged as scorching heatwaves swept toward them.

The scorching temperatures within the desert made the air around them s.h.i.+mmer and warp. If a normal living being were to appear here, they would probably die in a few seconds from the terrifying heat.

“It’s so hot…”

Lan Xiaoni complained in a faint voice.

She was quite scantily dressed with only a blue strip of silk wrapped around her snowy white twin peaks. Her waist, shoulders, and the elegant curves of her back were all exposed.

This kind of dress code was quite common among the mermaids.

However, even with so little clothes on, she was still unable to bear the scorching heat of the desert and unleashed a spell technique to maintain freshness.

An Lin shot an exasperated glance at Lan Xiaoni, wondering why the Spirit Fish Clan would pin their hopes on this pampered princess.

This simply didn’t make any sense! Lan Xiaoni was a weak coward who was petrified of death and pretty much everything else as well! She didn’t even have the courage to stand up to him, so how was she going to become a worthy adversary to him?

An Lin was a little perplexed as he led the way forward.

Lan Xiaoni silently trailed along behind him.

Each world had a treasure of its own, and the statue had told him that he would need to use his strength to obtain the treasure. If he died during the process, then that was proof that he didn’t have an affinity with the tomb.

This indicated that there was definitely some sort of huge danger lurking within the desert.

An Lin didn’t dare to get complacent as he continued onward, using his divine sense to survey his surroundings the entire time.

The scorching desert seemed to be infinitely vast, but he was able to use his super-powerful divine sense, and he detected that the temperatures were different when he walked in different directions.

He began walking in the direction where the temperatures steadily increased.

“Hey… Why is it getting hotter and hotter?” The sweet and naive mermaid princess was a little confused as she surveyed her surroundings with a hint of concern on her face.

She was worried that she would die from the heat.

An Lin couldn’t be bothered dealing with her concerns and continued to forge ahead.

The temperatures rose higher and higher, and the sand below had already turned into a scorching white-golden color with temperatures even hotter than a red hot iron board.

Lan Xiaoni’s fishtail had already left the ground as she unleashed water-type spell techniques to cool herself off.

She did not want her lower body to be pan-seared. If that happened, she was afraid that An Lin would be unable to resist the urge to eat her.

That’s right, Lan Xiaoni had already visualized An Lin as a Demon King that enjoyed feasting on Spirit Fish Clan cultivators.

What he had said about her smelling like seafood was a huge warning sign.

Just as Lan Xiaoni was thinking about a bunch of random c.r.a.p, An Lin’s footsteps suddenly came to a stop.

“We’re here,” An Lin said.

“Huh?” Lan Xiaoni was a little dazed as she turned to look at An Lin.

All of a sudden, the scorching sand below suddenly began to cave in, as if they had encountered a large patch of quicksand.

Lan Xiaoni’s expression s.h.i.+fted, and she didn’t even have a chance to react.

Boom!

The sand suddenly exploded.

A huge bug enveloped in golden flames leaped into the sky before opening its mouth to reveal rows of sharp teeth as it flew toward Lan Xiaoni at terrifying speed!

The bug had made its choice between An Lin and Lan Xiaoni.

It was craving for seafood!
