25: Chapter 25 A Thousandfold Return, the Imperial Weapon Heavenly Emperor Cauldron!

His voice fell.

Lin Yi no longer paid attention to anyone else and directly took the nine-aperture exquisite heart from the Grand Elder's hand.

The treasure felt warm and smooth like jade in his hand.

A warm current that nourished the Divine Soul spread throughout his body, instantly invigorating his spirit.

It was indeed a rare treasure.

But in Lin Yi's eyes, its value was far more than just this.

Amidst the complicated gazes of astonishment, regret, and mockery from the crowd.

Holding the nine-aperture exquisite heart, Lin Yi stepped down from the high platform step by step.

The crowd automatically parted to create a path for him.

He walked through the crowd and finally stopped in front of Su Yuxi.

The entire world seemed to fall silent at this moment.

Only the sound of their breathing and heartbeats remained.

“Yu Xi.”

Lin Yi's voice was incredibly gentle.

He gently held out the shimmering nine-aperture exquisite heart before Su Yuxi.

“Your Dao Embryo has just fused with the chaos origin and supreme bone; your Foundation is still unstable.”

“This item can nourish your Divine Soul and consolidate your Foundation.”

At this point, Lin Yi's gaze became extremely serious as he said word by word:

“To me, ten thousand treasures cannot compare to even a fraction of you!”

Boom!

As soon as these words were spoken.

On the high platform, the expressions of the experts from various major forces who had come to witness the ceremony became even more colorful.

“Heh, I thought he was a peerless hero rarely seen in an eternity.

To think he is actually a fool for love whose head has been clouded by romance!”

In the seating area of the North Region Wang Family, an Elder let out a disdainful cold laugh.

A hint of contempt appeared in his eyes as he looked at Lin Yi.

“Though this child is a Prodigy, he now has the fatal weakness of love!

With such unstable Heart-Nature, he is destined to never achieve greatness!”

The Elder of the Yaoguang Holy Land also shook his head and sighed, his eyes filled with regret.

In the eyes of these old monsters who had lived for thousands of years.

The path of the Great Dao should be one of severing all attachments and forging ahead with courage.

Any trace of emotional entanglement.

Could become a fatal flaw in the future struggle for the path of the Emperor.

Only the expert from the Imperial Clan Chu Family gave Lin Yi a deep look.

He then glanced at Su Yuxi's beautiful figure, seemingly lost in thought, and said nothing.

On the square, the discussions among the Disciples exploded like a boiling pot.

“He's crazy! Senior Brother Lin Yi must be crazy!”

“Exactly, that was an Imperial Scripture!”

“An Imperial Scripture that could have allowed him to Cultivate his Hongmeng Chaos Body to the Immortal Realm!”

“Is it really worth it for a relationship?”

Many male Disciples sighed and beat their chests in frustration.

It was as if they themselves had missed out on a supreme Opportunity.

Meanwhile, the female Disciples' eyes were all shining brightly.

The way they looked at Lin Yi was almost enough to melt him.

“Heavens! That’s so romantic!”

“He would rather abandon the path to the heavens just to win a beauty's smile!

Senior Brother Lin Yi is so responsible; this is true love!”

“Yes, yes! Senior Sister Su is just too lucky!”

And at this moment.

Su Yuxi, hearing Lin Yi's gentle words.

Felt as if billions of thunderclaps had exploded in her mind simultaneously.

Her delicate body trembled violently, and those Phoenix eyes that had always remained cold.

Were instantly shrouded in a thick mist of tears.

The image of the playboy from her previous life who had broken the engagement to humiliate her and viewed her as a stepping stone.

And the domineering youth of this life who had gifted her treasures, fought bloody battles against powerful enemies for her.

And now treated Imperial Scriptures and Imperial Pills like trash.

The two figures flickered and collided wildly in her mind.

Finally, everything from her past life shattered with a bang!

It vanished into thin air!

The cold wall she had built in her heart since her Rebirth to isolate herself from all emotions.

At this moment, by Lin Yi's plain yet incredibly domineering words.

Was completely smashed to pieces!

An unprecedented, mysterious warm current.

Instantly flooded her entire heart!

Su Yuxi looked at the youth before her.

Looking into those deep eyes filled with sincerity and doting affection.

All her schemes, all her vigilance, and all her doubts.

Completely disappeared at this moment.

Leaving behind only the purest heartbeat of a young girl!

“This... this is too precious...”

Su Yuxi's red lips parted slightly, her voice carrying an undetectable tremor.

She wanted to refuse, but her body wouldn't listen.

Reason told her this was an Imperial Rank treasure and she shouldn't accept it.

But emotionally, she couldn't bring herself to say 'no' no matter what.

“Take it.”

Lin Yi's tone brooked no argument.

He directly took Su Yuxi's delicate hand and placed the nine-aperture exquisite heart in her palm.

“I said, this is what you deserve!”

A warm sensation traveled from her palm.

Su Yuxi's body trembled again as a current of electricity surged from her hand through her entire body.

She could feel that Lin Yi's palm was so broad and warm.

It was so reassuring!

She lowered her head, looking at the treasure in her palm that continuously emitted a soft light.

Then she looked up at Lin Yi's incomparably handsome face.

Finally, she did not refuse again.

Her jade-like hand tightly gripped the nine-aperture exquisite heart, as if she were holding the entire world.

“Thank you!”

Two simple words were softly breathed from her mouth.

The voice was as faint as a mosquito's hum, yet it carried an unprecedented determination and tenderness.

On Su Yuxi's beautiful face, which had been frozen for ten thousand years.

A charming blush quietly crept up, making her breathtakingly beautiful.

The moment Su Yuxi accepted the treasure.

The heavenly sound Lin Yi had been waiting for rang out in his mind.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for gifting an Imperial Rank treasure—nine-aperture exquisite heart!]

[Detected that the Destined Female Lead Su Yuxi's favorability is maxed out; she is now Completely Devoted!]

[Triggered Thousandfold Critical Hit Return!]

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the reward—Top-grade Imperial Rank, heavenly emperor cauldron!]

It's here!

Lin Yi was ecstatic!

Top-grade Imperial Rank, heavenly emperor cauldron!

This was something truly refined by an Ancient Emperor.

A supreme killing weapon capable of suppressing the Luck of an entire era!

Its value was more than ten thousand times higher.

Than those so-called Imperial Scriptures or Imperial Pills!

His mind sank into the System space.

There, an ancient and heavy three-legged, two-eared round cauldron was quietly floating.

On the body of the cauldron were engraved ancient totems of the sun, moon, stars, mountains, rivers, plants, and all living beings worshipping.

It was as if an entire Universe had been melted within it.

The entire vessel emitted a terrifying aura that suppressed the heavens across all ages.

With just one look, Lin Yi.

Felt as if his Divine Soul would be sucked into it and completely lost.

An invincible confidence welled up within him!

With this cauldron, he could suppress all enemies in the world!

He had struck it rich!

This time, he had truly hit the jackpot!

Lin Yi was incredibly excited inside, but on the surface, he remained calm.

He looked at the shy and moving Su Yuxi before him, the smile on his face becoming even more gentle.

In the eyes of the crowd.

This newly appointed Saint had not hesitated to give up the path to the heavens just to win a beauty's smile.

He was a complete fool for love.

Perhaps even a bit stupid.

But only Lin Yi himself knew.

Not only had he won over the Destined Female Lead.

He had also obtained a supreme trump card sufficient to sweep across the entire Three Thousand Realms!

The world and the beauty—he wanted them both!
