Chapter 145 Anger
Chapter 145 Anger
"..."
"Oh, I've been delayed for so long and I still don't know where this is!"
Lin Chuan pretended not to hear, stood up from Bai Zhi's legs again, and looked around curiously.
Seeing Lin Chuan deliberately changing the subject, Bai Zhi didn't get angry. She slowly stood up and walked to the main entrance of the hall. As a white light rose, the teleportation entrance came into view again.
"This should just be a place of testing, and the test doesn't seem to be over yet." Bai Zhi expressed her guess.
"Another test? What on earth does this Cangsong Immortal want?"
Lin Chuan stared at the teleportation entrance not far away, and his heart was filled with more and more doubts about this relic.
Although it was his first time exploring the immortal ruins, through reading ancient books and listening to Xu Hanyi's narration, he knew that immortal ruins could be divided into two types.
The first type, which is the majority, is the caves left behind after the immortal realm dies. There are countless formations inside, which are extremely dangerous, and the benefits of exploring them are generally not very great.
The second type is the inheritance sites left behind by the immortals. These sites contain various tests, but generally focus on examining talent, understanding, and suitability for the inheritance. These immortal ruins generally offer extremely generous rewards to attract the most people.
The immortal ruins this time seem to be the second type, but judging from the tests we have experienced so far, it seems that this Cangsong Immortal has been examining our character.
"let's go."
Bai Zhi said softly, then walked back to Lin Chuan's side, stretched out her fair and slender hand, and put it into Lin Chuan's palm.
Lin Chuan looked at Bai Zhi helplessly, then took her hand and walked quickly towards the portal.
The familiar feeling of dizziness washed over him like a tide, and Lin Chuan felt his head sink. When he finally opened his eyes again with great effort, he discovered that he and Bai Zhi had been transported to an extremely hot valley.
"Is this still an illusion?"
Lin Chuan muttered as he turned his head and happened to meet Bai Zhi's gaze.
"Huh? You actually appeared in the illusion as well."
Lin Chuan's face was full of disbelief, and he muttered something, then he reached out his hand as if possessed by a ghost and pinched Bai Zhi's pink face.
"Well."
Bai Zhi felt pain and frowned slightly, looking a little coquettish.
"It's quite real. I don't know..." Lin Chuan subconsciously looked at the raging waves in front of him.
"you……"
"Why don't we find a hidden spot first..."
Bai Zhi's face flushed, and her voice was as thin as a mosquito. After those words came out of her mouth, she became more shy. She slowly lowered her head, and her light purple hair swayed gently in the wind, as if to cover up her shy appearance at the moment.
"..."
"Ahem, I... just want to see if this is an illusion."
Lin Chuan coughed twice awkwardly, with an unnatural look on his face.
"Only in the illusion do you dare to have thoughts about me?"
Bai Zhi raised her head slightly, with the blush still on her cheeks. She looked at Lin Chuan with eyes that seemed to be both angry and resentful. There was a hint of coquettishness in her tone, mixed with a little grievance.
"..."
"Let's keep going. This time the test should be crossing the valley."
Lin Chuan used his spiritual vision to look into the distance, and saw that the familiar portal was standing quietly in the distance, as if waiting for them to overcome numerous obstacles and reach it.
"Yeah." Bai Zhi nodded slowly.
The deeper they went into the valley, the more intense the burning sensation became. The temperature in the entire valley seemed to be constantly rising, becoming increasingly unbearable. Lin Chuan hurriedly mobilized his yin and yang energy and cast a layer of protection around him.
The yin and yang energies could only block most of the heat, and a small amount of heat still penetrated into his body like a cancer.
He couldn't help but turn his head to look at Bai Zhi beside him, only to see that her fair face was now red, just like the delicate peach blossoms in spring.
Fine beads of sweat continued to seep out from her forehead and cheeks, gathering into crystal beads of sweat that rolled down. Her whole body was covered in sweat, her breathing became slightly rapid, and her chest rose and fell gently with her breathing. She looked quite charming and pitiful.
"Do you feel like there's something wrong here besides the high temperature?"
Lin Chuan frowned, suppressing his annoyance, his words tinged with solemnity. As he questioned Bai Zhi, he surrounded her with a layer of yin and yang energy.
"No."
Bai Zhi shook her head gently, and her soft hair swayed with it. She looked up at the yin and yang energies lingering around her, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly.
"Am I overthinking it?"
Lin Chuan frowned, the feeling of boredom in his heart was like the rising tide, becoming stronger and stronger as he walked forward, as if there was an unknown fire burning wildly in his heart, making him upset.
"boom!"
After continuing to walk forward for a while, Lin Chuan finally couldn't suppress the surging emotions in his heart anymore. He suddenly raised his foot and kicked hard at the stone in front of him.
With a loud bang, the stone was instantly blasted apart by the powerful force, turning into dust that drifted into the air. However, at the moment the stone exploded into dust, Lin Chuan was disappointed to find that his inner anger had not been relieved at all. In fact, the feeling of irritation continued to spread and grow, as if it was about to swallow him whole.
"What happened to you?"
Bai Zhi stopped with a worried look on her face, reached out and pulled Lin Chuan, who wanted to continue walking forward.
"I don't know if it's the temperature here, but I feel a little irritable right now."
Lin Chuan frowned, and veins on his forehead were faintly throbbing.
"It shouldn't be the temperature."
Bai Zhi spoke softly as she walked up to Lin Chuan. After they stopped, their eyes met.
Bai Zhi slowly stood on tiptoe, leaned forward slightly, and put her head forward.
"Well."
In an instant, a cool feeling like a clear spring in the mountains entered Lin Chuan's heart along the place where the two people touched. The coolness spread rapidly, and wherever it reached, it was like a breeze blowing past. Lin Chuan felt that the raging boredom in his heart was swept away, and the angry mood seemed to disappear without a trace in an instant, and the whole person felt much more relaxed and comfortable.
"Why can you..."
Before Lin Chuan could even finish his question, Bai Zhi reached out and gently stopped him. The finger, slender and long, felt slightly cool as it touched his lips, stopping him instantly.
"Now you know how powerful I am, right?"
Bai Zhi raised her head slightly, with a little pride on her face, a bright light flashing in her eyes, and a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, as if she was showing off her unique ability.
