101: Chapter 101 Even ants dare to covet the bright moon in the sky?
"Revered Master!"
Chen Yan roared, reaching out his hand, grabbing desperately towards the front!
But his fingertips only managed to lightly brush against Leng Qingshuang's hand before the teleportation power of the Lihuo Immortal Abode whisked her away!
He could only watch helplessly as his Revered Master's figure vanished before his eyes!
Furious!
Damn it!
The two-person world we agreed upon is just gone like that!
You didn't say that entering would result in random teleportation!
Amidst the spinning world.
"Plop!"
By the time Chen Yan's feet touched the ground, what appeared before him was a purely white space!
The surroundings were filled with white mist, so thick one couldn't see their own fingers.
He released his Divine Sense, wanting to investigate.
But he discovered that his Divine Sense was suppressed tightly within a foot of his body, completely useless!
"Revered Master? Revered Master, where are you?"
Chen Yan tentatively called out for his Revered Master.
But the surroundings were empty; the only response was a hollow echo.
He randomly picked a direction and walked for the time it takes to burn a stick of incense, yet the surroundings remained unchanged!
Chen Yan's brows furrowed tightly; he didn't understand what this Lihuo Immortal Abode was intending.
If this was a trial assessment, there should be some content, right?
[Detected the host's strong desire to find Revered Master, issuing new task: Tempering the Heart!]
[Tempering the Heart: Please have the host pass the first layer of the Lihuo Immortal Abode trial and enter the core area! Task completion reward: Five Elements Unity Art!]
Chen Yan couldn't help but be stunned.
Tempering the Heart?
So, this is indeed the Trial Grounds of the Lihuo Immortal Abode?
But what about the trial content?
It can't just be standing here like a fool, right?
As Chen Yan was pondering, he saw the mist before him suddenly begin to surge uncontrollably.
The mist surged rapidly, contracted, and dissipated!
A magnificent palace appeared before him.
The immortal palace was wreathed in Immortal Qi, with bells and drums sounding in unison.
A bright red carpet stretched from the immortal palace all the way to his feet.
Chen Yan hesitated, but then resolutely lifted his leg and stepped onto it!
Whoosh!
The red carpet carried him, rapidly retracting towards the immortal palace, and in the blink of an eye, it brought Chen Yan to the main hall of the immortal palace.
He saw the entire main hall decked with lanterns and colorful streamers, with the character "ε" posted everywhere.
Guests filled the seats all around, filled with joy and laughter.
This was clearly a grand wedding scene!
Chen Yan looked left and right, his face full of curiosity.
"Just this? The trial of this Lihuo Immortal Abode is truly bizarre! And the System's task is called Tempering the Heart, does attending a wedding count as Tempering the Heart?"
The red carpet silently delivered him to an empty seat.
This position had an excellent view, allowing him to see the entire wedding scene at a glance!
Chen Yan curled his lips, sat down with a thud, and thought to himself:
Let me see what this trial is actually all about!
"Now inviting the groom and bride to the stage!"
Following his sitting down, the emcee's call kicked off the wedding!
A stunningly beautiful woman wearing a phoenix crown and rosy dawn cape, holding red flowers and with a red veil covering her head, appeared slowly while being led by a handsome man.
"Clap clap clap~"
The surrounding guests instantly burst into enthusiastic applause, seemingly congratulating the two newlyweds.
Chen Yan subconsciously raised his hands, about to join in the applause.
Whispers suddenly came from beside him.
"Sword Venerable Shuanghua and the Xuantian Holy Son have finally achieved Perfection!"
"Indeed! This pair of beauties has been deeply in love for hundreds of years, and finally, lovers have become spouses!"
"A match made in heaven! A match made in heaven!"
"Yes, yes..."
Boom!
In an instant, Chen Yan was struck by lightning!
His whole body stiffened, holding his hands up without moving, his eyes fixed dead on the stunning figure on the stage.
"Ma... Revered Master?"
Whoosh~
A gust of wind suddenly blew, lifting the red veil on the bride's head.
Chen Yan subconsciously looked at the face beneath the red veil.
It was none other than Leng Qingshuang!
At this moment, her beautiful face was icy, her expression numb, just like the way Chen Yan first saw her!
"Buzz!"
Chen Yan's brain "buzzed" and exploded directly!
"No... Impossible!"
He muttered to himself: "This must be fake! It's fake!"
"How could Revered Master become a Dao Companion with someone else?"
"I don't believe it!"
He rushed forward violently, wanting to grab his Revered Master's hand.
But!
"Bang!"
An invisible barrier blocked him firmly!
"What is this? Get lost! Get lost!"
He smashed at the barrier crazily, wanting to shatter it!
Even though his Revered Master was right in front of him, he couldn't get past!
"Revered Master! Revered Master! Disciple is here! I am here!"
He roared at Leng Qingshuang, wanting to attract her attention: "Look at me! Look at me!"
"I am Chen Yan! I am Chen Yan!"
But the Leng Qingshuang on the stage had absolutely no reaction!
The surrounding guests also seemed to turn a blind eye to him!
The white-haired emcee held a Jade Slip and sang out loudly:
"First ask Heaven and Earth, second ask the Dao!"
"Sword Venerable Shuanghua, are you willing to become a Dao Companion with the Xuantian Holy Son, from now on sharing life and death, never to separate?"
In Chen Yan's despairing gaze.
The Leng Qingshuang on the stage parted her red lips slightly and spoke with an expressionless face: "I am willing..."
...
Whoosh!
When Leng Qingshuang opened her eyes, she found mist permeating her vision!
Even with her Divine Sense, she couldn't probe out.
But before she could react.
Whoosh~
Her vision blurred instantly.
The next second, she was pulled into an illusion!
Leng Qingshuang looked at the familiar scene in front and whispered: "This is... Taiqing Sword Sect..."
The scene changed abruptly!
In the Shuanghua Villa on the Ninth Peak, it was actually decked with lanterns and red candles, a scene of joy.
The usually cold Ninth Peak was now filled with guests.
In a daze, Leng Qingshuang looked at herself in the mirror.
She was actually wearing a bright red wedding dress!
And standing beside her was a handsome young man also wearing a wedding dress.
"Revered Master, the auspicious time is almost here, we should go out!"
The young man smiled lightly, turned around to take her hand, his face full of obedient, sincere, and triumphant smiles!
Leng Qingshuang looked at him and murmured: "Chen Yan..."
"Revered Master!"
"Chen Yan" held her hand, his eyes reddened, his voice trembling slightly: "You don't know, Disciple has waited for this day, waited for too long, too long..."
"But fortunately, this day has finally come!"
"You..." Leng Qingshuang's heartbeat accelerated suddenly, she couldn't believe this was real: "This is not real..."
She told herself this was an illusion, a hallucination, all of this was fake!
She wanted to push "Chen Yan" away, but discovered that her body was completely out of her control.
Her vision blurred, and she and "Chen Yan" had already arrived on the high platform.
Before her, a white-haired elder sang out:
"First ask Heaven and Earth, second ask the Dao!"
"Chen Yan, are you willing to become a Dao Companion with Sword Venerable Shuanghua, from now on sharing life and death, never to separate?"
"Chen Yan" shouted loudly without hesitation: "I am willing! For life after life, I am willing!"
The elder looked at Leng Qingshuang and asked again: "Sword Venerable Shuanghua, are you willing to become a Dao Companion with him? From now on sharing life and death, never to separate?"
Leng Qingshuang frowned. It's just an illusion, how could it control my will?
She opened her mouth to refuse, but found that she couldn't make a sound.
But then, from her mouth, she uncontrollably said: "I am willing..."
"No! Revered Master! Don't agree! Don't agree!"
Suddenly, a roar that seemed to come from the Void Realm entered her ears!
"I am not willing! And you cannot be willing either!"
"Revered Master! You are mine! You are my, Chen Yan's!"
"I won't allow you to marry someone else! I won't allow it!"
"Revered Master, you can only marry me! You can only be my Dao Companion!"
This is... the Rebellious Disciple's voice?
Is he also in the illusion?
Is he also participating in the first layer of the trial?
But...
How could this Rebellious Disciple want to snatch me away even in the trial illusion?
What does it mean that I can only marry you?
Why must I only be your Dao Companion?
This Rebellious Disciple is truly overbearing...
"No!!!!"
In Chen Yan's trial illusion.
Watching the Xuantian Holy Son lift his hand, intending to lift his Revered Master's red veil.
Chen Yan's eyes turned fierce instantly, and he roared: "Take your dirty hands away! Don't you dare touch her!"
Sword Intent surged on his body, Five Elements Sword Intent was unleashed one after another, slashing crazily at the barrier in front of him!
But it was still to no avail!
Suddenly!
The Xuantian Holy Son on the stage turned his head, and cast a look of contempt and disdain at the crazed Chen Yan off the stage.
"Ants, how dare you covet the moon in the sky?"
