Book 4: Chapter 12: The Legendary Loneliest Man In Nine Provinces And Ten Lands
“Great, do even Land Immortals make counterfeits?”
After running around in the trial area, Bai Qiuran, who had encountered nothing, walked back again, staring at the trial stele that was glowing blue.
Tang Ruowei and Li Jinyao on the other side, as well as the black-robed man who quietly followed Bai Qiuran behind the scenes, also watched this scene in surprise.
“How could there be no response?”
The black-robed man in the dark space couldn’t help saying:
“He has lived for so long, hasn’t he ever experienced the taste of love?”
However, most of the mechanisms in the Wise Immortal Mansion were not under his control. At the moment when Bai Qiuran’s voice fell, the text on the stone tablet dimmed.
“How did this thing suddenly turn off?”
Bai Qiuran patted the stone tablet and shouted to the sky:
“What’s the matter? Do your Land Immortal’s products have no warranty?”
“The inscription faded, that is to say, has Sword Patriarch passed the trial?”
Even Li Jinyao, who was talented and intelligent, didn’t understand.
“But why…”
Tang Ruowei stared at her master for a few seconds, then suddenly said:
“Ah, I get it!”
Bai Qiuran and Li Jinyao looked at her with questioning eyes. Tang Ruowei paused, pointed at Bai Qiuran, and smiled:
“Master, you are indeed a man who is single for more than three thousand years. I didn’t believe it when Sect Master Su told me. Now it seems that the title ‘the legendary loneliest man in Nine Provinces and Ten Lands’ is really not exaggerated…”
When Bai Qiuran heard the words, he stunned and said:
“What nonsense are you talking about? Even so, then I still have my Master who is like a teacher and a father to me!”
“But Grandmaster has ascended.”
Tang Ruowei blinked and asked:
“With Land Immortal’s current style of acting, do you think they dare to take the initiative to mess with the Immortal Realm?”
Bai Qiuran was speechless.
Seeing his depressed appearance, Li Jinyao thought for a while and stepped into the trial area. She walked a circle along the track that Bai Qiuran had walked. On the way, Tang Ruowei saw that there was fog in the middle, and some people walked out of the fog and said something to her. Among these people, Tang Ruowei also saw Ji Lingyun, the current Sect Leader of the Heavenly Demon Sect.
But Li Jinyao walked past these people calmly, and when the replica of Ji Lingyun tried to stop her, she kicked it mercilessly.
When she made a circle and walked back, in her perspective, the text on the stone tablet was also wiped out.
“That’s it, I understand.”
Li Jinyao looked at the extinguished inscription and said:
“This trial actually evokes the pain you felt when parting with your relatives and friends. In other words, as long as the other emotions in your heart overwhelm this pain, this trial will not be difficult to pass.”
“That’s it.”
Tang Ruowei asked:
“But Sister Li, why do you kick Sect leader Ji?”
“Oh, ah, because my master who usually be a single-minded tomboy, suddenly shows a sensational side that can only be found in novels to me. I feel a little disgusting, and subconsciously bully her.”
Li Jinyao replied:
“But she’s worthy of being a master. I can pass this trial mainly thanks to her.”
While she was talking, Ji Lingyun, who was far away from Wise Immortal Mansion, suddenly sneezed for no reason. This sneeze twitched her muscles all over, making her wounds caused by Bai Qiuran become painful again, which made her face.
“Then I’m afraid it’s a bit hard for me to pass.”
Tang Ruowei said:
“Compared with Sister Li, my mental cultivation is absolutely inadequate, and I am not alone like Master.”
“Try it, it’s good for training your mind.”
Li Jinyao persuaded:
“Besides, Sword Patriarch is watching here, there should be no danger. Cultivators should cut off the ties with the mortal world. Junior Sister Ruowei, you are only twenty-four this year, so I think most of your relatives are still alive. This is a good opportunity to fill the loopholes in your state of mind.”
“Then, all right.”
Tang Ruowei looked at Bai Qiuran hesitantly.
“Master, then I will go.”
“Go away, go away.”
Bai Qiuran’s face looked dull.
“Go and see your relatives.”
Tang Ruowei was very angry, snorted, and ran into the trial area with arms akimbo.
As soon as she stepped into the trial area, clouds suddenly poured into the surrounding area. Tang Ruowei turned around and found that Bai Qiuran and Li Jinyao were no longer visible.
She was a little nervous, but after swallowing, she chose to move forward.
After walking for a while, the surrounding clouds dispersed, and she suddenly found herself walking on a battlefield.
There were corpses all around, countless demons and human races fell to the ground, and there was a chill of true essence floating in the air.
On a rock in front, leaned a pretty girl with a black high ponytail. She was wearing a female armor, but she was deeply wounded, and blood flowed down her body and dripped to the ground.
Tang Ruowei recognized this dying girl. She was Zuo Yanfei from the Heavenly Army, the first friend she met in the Ding Kingdom when she traveled down the mountain for the first time after beginning to cultivate.
After returning to the mountain, the two of them often contacted each other by letter and have become close friends.
“Ah, Ruowei.”
Zuo Yanfei, who was caused by the illusion, also “saw” her, and smiled weakly at her:
“You are here, it feels good to see a friend in the last days of my life.”
Tang Ruowei knew that Zuo Yanfei was a fake, but she couldn’t help feeling sad when she saw the miserable situation of her friend.
She knew that, as a disciple of the Heavenly Army, with the purpose of protecting the human race, Zuo Yanfei might fall to this end in the future.
Tang Ruowei forcibly resisted the urge to walk over and take a look, burying her head over Zuo Yanfei, and continuing forward, the mist rushed over again. This time, it was the aging Emperor Shangxuan who appeared in front of her, lying on the sickbed.
Next to him, her younger brother, who had become the crowned prince of Shangxuan, and his plump wife, were listening to the last words of Shangxuan Emperor.
Tang Ruowei couldn’t help but choked up. Compared to Zuo Yanfei, this scene was something that was destined to happen in the future. She joined the Qingming Sword Sect and embarked on the road of cultivation, but the Shangxuan Emperor was just a mortal, in the near future they would part like this.
She couldn’t help but walked over to the bed, wanting to hear the last words of Emperor Shangxuan.
“My son, you have grown up and can lead this country. I believe you will make it better.”
The Shangxuan Emperor coughed weakly, then took her brother’s palm and said:
“The only one I’m still worried about is your older sister. I heard that the Qingming Sword Sect’s technique is unparalleled in the world of cultivation, then she who has practiced it… Has she grown taller? Did she find someone to marry? How high is her cultivation level? Ruowei… has her breasts grown?”
Snap!
Hearing this sentence, Tang Ruowei seemed to hear the crisp sound of the broken string in her head.
Endless humiliation and anger swept through her heart in an instant, and the power of anger turned the weak girl who was originally weeping and sighing into a frenzied female dragon.
“Damned Land Immortals! What the hell is the illusion you created?”
The girl roared and shattered the scene in front of her with a palm.
“Eat shit!”
