2035 Test 2
The aged laughter within the dragon’s vein abruptly ceased, replaced by a stern proclamation. It was evident that they were greatly displeased with certain individuals, considering them a potential threat to the sanctity of the dragon’s vein, an outcome that would not be tolerated.
Zhuo Yuanbai and Yan Zhengchu heaved a sigh of relief, aware that they had successfully overcome the initial trial. The significance of obtaining the inheritance weighed heavily upon them.
However, the disciples from the Supreme Sect and the Grand Unity Sect appeared unfazed by the pressure. Having experienced numerous examinations within their respective sects, these tests seemed rather trivial to them.
Within the dragon’s vein, everything remained unchanged except for the absence of the aged laughter. The sumptuous feast still lay before them, as if they truly existed within this realm.
Yet, Gu Chaoyan harbored no doubt that this environment was but an illusion, skillfully crafted by a master of Dharma spells to appear strikingly real.
“Feeling fatigued? Take a rest. The second test will commence tomorrow morning,” the old voice announced.
Gu Chaoyan felt a sense of confusion clouding her thoughts.
A group of maids entered and escorted them to their respective rooms for rest. Gu Chaoyan and Zhou Huaijin were separated, further fueling her unease. She couldn’t shake the feeling that even during their break, they were still undergoing a test of sorts.
She said a few words to Zhou Huaijin and gave him the teleportation talismans from Huang Fu, so she felt slightly assured.
Then she went into her own room to rest.
She had just laid down when there was a knock on the door.
Gu Chaoyan opened the door and saw Zhou Huaijin. He was at the door, saying with a doting look. “Chaoyan, I will take a break with you.”
Having said that, he hugged her and tried to kiss her gently.
But Gu Chaoyan frowned and felt confused.
When they were taking a break, the maids did not allow them to be in the same room. Why was Huaijin here again?
“How did you get out?”
“…”
“Aren’t we supposed to be in separate rooms?”
“….”
“Just go home and take a rest.” Gu Chaoyan said. She felt that Zhou Huaijin was behaving strangely tonight.
She had the same look and movement, but she felt that something was wrong.
She was about to say something more when Zhou Huaijin left.
She went back to take a break, and when she turned around, she saw Huang Fu sitting at the table, looking at her with a heretic, heretical, evil, sinister smile.
“What are you doing here? Where have you been these days?” Gu Chaoyan asked.
Huang Fu did not answer her.
She approached her as if she were frivolous at the first meeting. “Feng Le.”
Gu Chaoyan slapped him away. “If you continue like this, I will never see you again, and you will no longer be my Master!”
Only now did Huang Fu disappear.
When Huang Fu disappeared, Gu Chaoyan suddenly understood something.
Well…
All was real…
It was the test, and there was no need to wait until the next morning.
The moment she thought it through, she suddenly came to the door of a yard.
The yard was in a patch of green.
She looked around but saw no one else. She was alone.
“Congratulations, you are the first one to pass the test.” The old voice sounded.
Sure enough…
When Gu Chaoyan was confirmed, the others came out one after another.
