Faith and Arrows
Lin Yu walked into the Tiandao Sect's attached Domain in the Central Immortal Domain and couldn't help but be amazed.
He vaguely remembered that a few days ago, when Revered Master Shang Ling brought him to the Central Immortal Domain, they had passed by the main gate of the Sacred Hall.
At that time, Lin Yu was astonished by the majestic Aura of the Sacred Hall; just a single gate gave him a sense of grandeur.
But within the Tiandao Sect, this feeling reappeared.
And it was not inferior to the Sacred Hall in the slightest!
After walking through the main gate, everything Lin Yu's eyes could see was unadorned.
Whether it was rockeries and fountains, or bamboo groves and green willows, it was tranquil and secluded, elegant yet not lacking in nobility.
It was this very environment that gave him a sense of vastness and grandeur.
He stared at a fountain and actually saw a universe hidden within the water.
Every drop of water contained an endless ocean, and Lin Yu was secretly startled, feeling a sense of trepidation.
Even with his current strength, he wouldn't dare say he could escape from a single drop of water.
He then looked at the seemingly ordinary bamboo grove, with a few withered yellow bamboo leaves.
After just a moment of contemplation, he felt that what he was facing was not a bamboo grove, but rather towering pillars capable of supporting a world.
Each one was incredibly precious.
Every single item here, though cloaked in the appearance of Mortal objects, contained a hidden wonder!
"Am I seeing things?"
"No, Dao rhymes are entwined upon them, with myriad textures interwoven within; they are definitely not ordinary objects!"
Lin Yu vaguely felt that the Tiandao Sect seemed to be no less than the Sacred Hall.
Otherwise, how could those two Young Misses say that the Heavenly Dao was on good terms with the Sacred Hall?
Only with equal strength can there be talk of good relations.
"The Tiandao Sect is truly mysterious enough."
Lin Yu put away his contempt and prepared to meet the Young Miss mentioned by the two Young Misses with the best possible attitude.
"This Young Master, please follow me."
Lin Yu naturally had no objection.
However, it seemed he wouldn't be able to meet the host so easily.
Under the guidance of the two Young Misses, Lin Yu was led onto a large, wide square stone platform, surrounded by mysterious runes, with purple-gold flagpoles standing majestically.
Eight sides encircled it, clearly exuding a sense of profound solemnity and killing intent.
"You two, what is the meaning of this?"
Lin Yu looked at the two Young Misses warily, as if trying to discern something.
One of them said:
"Young Master, there's no need to worry. Our Young Miss invited you here not to make things difficult for you."
"But our Young Miss is not an ordinary person and will not easily meet common people. You must demonstrate your strength on this Myriad Spirit Immortal Platform."
"After you pass, our Young Miss will naturally meet with you."
"If you wish to return now, we will not hinder you."
Lin Yu, instead of being angry, was pleased.
Goodness, there's even a plot like this.
The more you act this way, the more I want to see your true face.
Lin Yu didn't feel annoyed; instead, he thought it was quite normal.
To meet someone with so many twists and turns, the Young Miss mentioned by these two.
She must be of extraordinary origin!
Lin Yu nodded and said, "A guest follows the host's lead. Since your Young Miss has this request, then I will briefly display my strength."
After speaking, he stepped into it on his own.
The two Young Misses nodded and retreated, while also instructing the person controlling the Myriad Spirit Immortal Platform to activate the grand formation.
The scene instantly changed, and Lin Yu arrived above the Void Realm.
Around him, more than a dozen ferocious Void Realm beasts were already eyeing him menacingly.
They bared their fangs and charged at Lin Yu, wanting to tear him to shreds.
In a quiet, elegant, and luxurious boudoir, a high-cold woman with a graceful and slender figure, alluring curves, and bright eyes lay half-reclined on her bed.
Standing beside her were the two Young Misses who had guided Lin Yu.
The high-cold woman, with a cold expression on her beautiful face, stared blankly at a profound yellow bronze mirror not far away, where the flickering image showed Lin Yu battling the Void Realm beasts above the Void Realm.
She nodded from time to time, seemingly acknowledging Lin Yu's strength.
"Not bad, good strength."
One of the Young Misses smiled and said:
"It's all thanks to Young Miss's Wisdom Eye for discerning talent, otherwise how could he have entered the Myriad Spirit Immortal Platform."
"Indeed, it was Young Miss who gave him the opportunity. This Myriad Spirit Immortal Platform is a treasure; ordinary people don't even get a chance to train in it," another Young Miss said.
The high-cold woman said indifferently:
"The Myriad Spirit Immortal Platform can accurately test the user's strength and talent Rank. The higher the talent, the more dangerous the scene inside."
"And there's no such thing as passing a level, only failing and exiting."
"I wonder how many levels he can hold out for, and if he is the Child of Destiny of prophecy."
One Young Miss asked curiously:
"Young Miss, what kind of existence is the Child of Destiny you spoke of?"
"Yes, with the strength of our Tiandao Sect, do we still need to rely on this Child of Destiny?"
The high-cold woman said indifferently:
"I don't know either. When I prayed to Heaven in the Tiandao Sect, I only remembered two proverbs: 'The Great Dao is destined, and opens upon meeting a Mortal.'"
"Young Miss, what does that mean?"
"'Mortal' refers to Mortals? No, that can't be right. How could Mortals be worthy of your status, Young Miss? I guess it's probably an extraordinary person."
The high-cold woman remained silent, continuing to watch the scene in the mirror.
Her jade fingers beneath her pink sleeves clenched into fists, a fine sweat breaking out, as if everything in the mirror concerned her future destiny.
...
...
Xiao Fan, through his Demonic Thought Eye, also saw the powerful enemies Lin Yu was facing.
Having to fight before meeting? What a bizarre operation.
However, with his strength, even if he didn't meet that woman from the Tiandao Sect, he had plenty of means to glimpse her face.
The Demonic Thought Eye emitted a faint light, easily penetrating the endless Void Realm, directly looking at the person behind the scenes.
Xiao Fan saw the two Young Misses from earlier in a fragrant boudoir.
The two stood on either side, and amidst the treasure bed, jade couch, pink curtains, and pearl screens, a high-cold woman lay lazily on her side.
Her face was exquisite and beautiful, but there was a hint of sorrow in her delicate brows.
Her nose was high and straight, and her dark hair cascaded, partially obscuring her jade-like face.
With bright eyes and white teeth, her graceful figure was not hidden by her simple green dress.
Even Xiao Fan, who was accustomed to all sorts of delicacies, turned his head when he saw her.
Although most of it was due to his exploration of new things, it was undeniable that she possessed the beauty of a peerless woman.
Tsk tsk tsk, she's clearly a Child of Destiny!
Xiao Fan smiled. Such a woman could only be exclusively his. Even if he didn't use her, it would be good to collect her.
He wasn't being selfish; he just liked that unique sense of possession, the joy of collecting.
As for Lin Yu, with a new Child of Destiny, what use was he?
Xiao Fan's mind stirred.
The Demonic Thought Eye exerted its power, and the invisible threads extending from it began to take over Lin Yu's body.
...
...
In the Myriad Spirit Immortal Platform, Lin Yu's challenge continued.
He fought with increasing vigor, overcoming obstacles and defeating enemies, showing no signs of weakening.
The high-cold woman watched, marveling repeatedly. Could this person be the fated one?
The possibility was very high!
Just as she continued to watch, the situation on the scene took a sharp turn for the worse.
In the bronze mirror, Lin Yu flashed, intending to dodge the large claw coming back at him from the front.
But his body was no longer under his control; he actually charged towards the claw.
Lin Yu's pupils constricted. What was happening? Why weren't his limbs obeying him?
There was no time for him to think. The large slap that came at him sent him crashing to the ground, creating a hundred-meter-deep pit.
He wanted to stand up, but his hands and feet wouldn't obey, and his whole body was like a puppet on strings.
He could only lie powerlessly on the ground, allowing his opponents in the Myriad Spirit Immortal Platform to attack him.
And he could only passively take the blows.
He didn't know how many critical hits he endured, but he merely gritted his teeth, not letting out a single wail.
It must be said, the Child of Destiny's ability to withstand blows was indeed strong.
Xiao Fan was kind-hearted; he couldn't bear to see Lin Yu suffer such torment.
So, when the Void Realm beasts summoned stars and condensed them into sharp arrows, Xiao Fan manipulated Lin Yu's body, making him stand up.
The high-cold woman thought he was about to make a desperate counterattack, but the next moment, Lin Yu's actions dropped her jaw.
Lin Yu stood up, his back to the arrows.
He stood with his feet straight, bent at the waist, then put his hands on the ground, sticking out his most delicate posterior.
He was facing a rain of arrows like a meteor shower.
The high-cold Young Miss was dumbfounded; she could already imagine the beauty of the scene.
With a whoosh, sharp arrows, like meteors, streaked across the brilliant night sky, emitting a piercing roar.
And where it was going was the posterior.
Right on target, without deviation.
Pfft~~~
No sound came from the mirror.
But Lin Yu in the picture, at the moment he was hit, had eyes full of disbelief.
He felt his body being pierced, his brows furrowed tightly, his molars almost shattered, his face covered in bulging veins, and he cried out loudly: Ah~~~!!!
His mouth was wide open in a wail, actually causing the stars in the sky to tremble.
He let out a long howl to the sky, and blood tears actually streamed from his eyes.
No sound came from the picture.
But!
Silence here was better than sound; these three Young Misses seemed to be able to hear: a wail that pierced the endless river of time, echoing across the sky.
"Is he a pervert? How can he block it in such a way?" The high-cold woman laughed in exasperation.
She snorted, "I can't afford to lose face like this. Get him out of here quickly."
"Yes."
Lin Yu's test ended in defeat.
All that was left for him was a damaged posterior and wounds all over the ground.
...
...
The high-cold Young Miss couldn't hear the sound, but Xiao Fan heard it clearly.
It was the most pleasant sound he had ever heard.
Xiao Fan unilaterally admitted that Lin Yu was the number one tenor in the Xuanhuan world.
What is pierced through the body is not necessarily faith, it could also be an arrow. — Lin Yu
"Brother Xiao Fan, do I look good?"
In the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion, Lin Ningqin changed into a dazzling and vibrant immortal dress, her jade feet clad in green silk jade boots, and a jade hairpin adorned with sparkling precious pearls in her hair.
She wore no makeup, like a lotus flower emerging from clear water. The noble and luxurious long dress concealed her graceful and delicate figure, slightly tender yet subtly alluring.
She gracefully and charmingly twirled in front of Xiao Fan, holding up her skirt, showcasing her beauty.
Clothes make the man.
The luxurious long dress on her added a touch of nobility, further highlighting her youthful vitality, perfectly accentuating Lin Ningqin's beauty.
Xiao Fan was momentarily stunned.
He clapped his hands and said, "You look very beautiful, Ningqin Younger Sister is the most beautiful in the world."
Afterward, Hua Yinyin also walked out, exuding a mature charm.
She was originally the Young Miss of a prominent family, naturally possessing nobility.
It was only during her later escape that this temperament was submerged.
Now, Xiao Fan had rediscovered it. She was naturally beautiful, seemingly a grown-up Lin Ningqin, with a seven-tenths resemblance between them.
"Auntie Yinyin also looks good. I wish I could have a woman as beautiful as Auntie Yinyin." Xiao Fan praised her sincerely.
"Smooth talker." Hua Yinyin rolled her eyes at him, but her heart was filled with sweetness.
He says things like that, and he even stuck his tongue out at me when feeding me medicine earlier. Does he have feelings for me?
Lu Shui also changed into new clothes. She wasn't too flamboyant, choosing a simple and elegant immortal dress, but that quiet elegance made her even more fragrant.
However, Xiao Fan didn't say anything; a married woman was not his target.
Lu Shui, however, was a bit displeased. You praised the two of them but not me. What does that mean? Do I have no charm at all?
Seemingly thinking of something unpleasant, her voice was a little cold: "Xiao Fan, can't I even get a compliment from you?"
Xiao Fan was stunned for a moment. Did she want to compare even this?
Even he, who had seen countless women, couldn't help but sigh that a woman's heart was like a needle at the bottom of the sea.
He immediately praised her a few times, saying she was unparalleled in heaven and earth, her beauty so great that even descriptions like 'sinking fish and falling geese' or 'eclipsing the moon and shaming flowers' couldn't describe a ten-thousandth of it.
"I wonder which scoundrel has such good fortune to become Lu Shui's Dao Companion."
Lu Shui then beamed with joy, smiling charmingly:
"You know how to talk; your mouth is really sweet."
"Alas, it's difficult to say. The year I met him, he was Sealed. It's only these past few days that I've been able to meet him."
"Unexpectedly, he has to visit an old friend, so I can only stay to take care of his disciple. I even thought I had no charm at all," Lu Shui said with a self-deprecating smile.
After listening, Xiao Fan felt that things were not simple.
