Chapter 997 Fulfilling the Wish
Yunxi shook her head:

“Ancestor Ape, I cannot guarantee it, nor can anyone else, but at least I can fulfill Bai Tong’s last wish in this life.”

Upon hearing Yunxi's words, the Ape Ancestor restrained his aura but did not give a clear answer.

Yunxi calmly spoke:
"My name is Ranxi, an ascended cultivator who ascended from the Weiling Realm to the Immortal Realm. I will remain here until the Ape Ancestor makes his decision."

However, given the Ape Ancestor's level of cultivation, he should be well aware that karma is difficult to repay, especially considering what he will have to sacrifice to help Bai Tong prolong his life.

"There are some things your clan can repay for Bai Tong, but there are some things you cannot replace. The longer this goes on, the greater the damage to Bai Tong will be. I have said all I have to say. I urge Ancestor Ape to reconsider."

Upon hearing Yunxi's words, the Ape Ancestor seemed to have aged even more. He simply nodded and instructed Ape Five to take Yunxi to her temporary residence.

Yuan Wu was very curious about Yun Xi. Her big eyes looked Yun Xi up and down twice, then down and up again, before she asked:

"Human, how can you help Bai Tong prolong his life?"

Yun Xi raised her eyebrows and said:
"Of course, it's a life for a life."

Upon hearing this, Ape Five's eyes widened, and he abruptly stopped in his tracks, saying:

"If that's the case, can I use my lifespan to help Bai Tong?"

Yunxi hadn't expected these six-armed apes to value Bai Tong so much, but she still spoke earnestly:
"If you could help Bai Tong, the Ape Ancestor would have said so long ago. Why wait until now?"

Ape Five said somewhat dejectedly:
"It seems so! How come it's only you, a human, who can save Bai Tong?"

"Why can't it be me?"

"Hmph! You humans are the most cunning. Since you can help Bai Tong, you'll definitely ask for an exorbitant price."

After Yuan Wu finished speaking, he looked at Yun Xi with a wary gaze.

Yunxi raised an eyebrow and said:
"I've already exhausted my own life force, shouldn't I make demands? You six-armed apes still want to get benefits for free."

If that's the case, you've miscalculated. This fairy is swayed by gentle persuasion, not force. Even if I can't defeat you, I can still escape. Besides, my fate cannot be taken by force.

Yunxi's words were not only for Ape Five, but also for Ape Ancestor. Although she had stolen merit and replaced it with destiny, the effect was the same. Only evil immortals could steal merit and destiny. Ape Ancestor was not foolish enough to cooperate with evil immortals, otherwise the Six-Armed Ape clan would have faced annihilation.

Ape Five bared its teeth, but ultimately led Yunxi to a spacious and dry cave:
"You can stay here for now. Once I get permission from the Ape Ancestor, I will show you around."

"Good work."

After entering the cave, Yunxi took out the Hong Energy Shield and temporarily turned the cave into her private space before taking out a futon and sitting down on the ground.

Dian Dian poked its head out at the right moment to make sure the surroundings were safe and there were no six-armed apes before jumping onto Yun Xi's lap.

"Master, are you really going to sacrifice your own merits to prolong Bai Tong's life?"

“I have already sent a merit point. If Bai Tong is not greedy, he will know what to do next.”

Dian Dian asked somewhat uncertainly:
"What if Bai Tong is greedy?"

“He is a ‘prophet’ and should know the consequences of his greed. He wouldn’t do that, otherwise all his previous efforts for the six-armed ape clan would be ruined.”

“He is indeed pitiful. For the sake of his race, he has been trapped here all his life. Although I am weaker than him, I have at least seen different scenery, can cultivate, and can follow my master to a higher realm.”

At the end, Dian Dian twitched his little mustache with a hint of pride, quite satisfied with his decision to form a bond with Yun Xi. Although he had taken advantage of her vulnerability a little, he had only done it to help his master. Yun Xi, upon hearing this, pinched and ruffled Dian Dian in her hands for a while, a smile appearing on her face.

Actually, compared to Lili, she seemed to favor Diandian more. Although the white mouse's initial bond with her was somewhat accidental, it genuinely saved her from exploding and dying.

Even after Dian Dian awakened the bloodline of the Treasure-Seeking Rat, she didn't let Dian Dian plunder rare and precious materials extensively. Firstly, because her advancement speed was too fast, she simply didn't have time to specifically dig for rare and precious materials. Secondly, she didn't want anyone to covet Dian Dian's talent, so she always kept Dian Dian as a pet, and most of the time it was spent accompanying her.

However, Dian Dian never took advantage of her favor. He knew what he should do, worked hard to improve his cultivation, helped her as much as he could, and stayed by her side. Moreover, Dian Dian knew her secrets the best.

The man and the rat were chatting happily in a harmonious atmosphere, while the Ape Ancestor was somewhat worried. He was afraid that Bai Tong would get hurt, but he could not force Ran Xi to prolong Bai Tong's life, otherwise Bai Tong would have to bear all the consequences.

Just as the Ape Ancestor was struggling with his decision, Bai Tong opened his bright eyes, raised his head, and said:
“Ancestor, please let me leave the clan territory with Fairy Ranxi and go out to see the world! Once I have fulfilled my wish, I will return to the clan territory. I will not die easily outside. If you are worried, you can arrange for someone from the clan to accompany us.”

The Ape Ancestor frowned, his white eyebrows furrowed, and asked:
"Bai Tong, are you sure?"

Bai Tong replied earnestly:
"Yes, Ancestor, this is the karma we owe."

Upon hearing the words "cause and effect," the Ape Ancestor immediately pressed for an answer:

"Bai Tong, did you see something again?"

Bai Tong nodded, but did not elaborate on what she had seen.

The next day, Yunxi learned from Yuan Liu that the Ape Ancestor had agreed to let Bai Tong leave the clan's territory, but he wanted to select the strongest six-armed ape in the clan to accompany him, so that Bai Tong could be protected and Yunxi could also lend a hand.

Yunxi wasn't surprised by the Ape Ancestor's decision, but she hadn't expected to receive a group of free henchmen. Intrigued, she asked:
"Brother Ape, how do you select your followers?"

Ape Six clenched his fists and said:

"What other choice do we have? Let's have a fight! Whoever wins the most, we'll choose."

"May I observe from the sidelines?"

"Of course, if you'd like, you can also come down for a match. When we sparred before, your fists were pretty hard."

"Iron Six praised him in a very casual way."

Yunxi smiled, revealing a set of small white teeth:

"Brother Yuan, you flatter me. Although I caught your punch, I've been applying ointment for the past few days, and my bones are even cracked."

She wasn't exaggerating; it really was true.

Ape Six grinned and said:
"I didn't even use my full strength back then, please forgive me!"

After saying that, he ran off to register.

Two days later, Yunxi appeared at the gathering square of the six-armed apes as she wished, sitting in the front row to watch the battle. After all, the winner would leave the tribe with her, and she needed to know the strength of these six-armed apes.

The first few matches were all low-level six-armed ape battles, purely a contest of strength. Yunxi watched with great interest and would also join in to test her strength against the six-armed apes during breaks in the fights. As she won one match after another, the way the six-armed apes looked at her changed.

Ape Five even moved closer to her, reached out a hand and pinched her arm, saying with some confusion:
"With your skinny arms and legs, where do you hide all your strength?"
