Even blind box hunters don't choose their partners? I got Su Daji from my blind box!

Outside the sedan chair.

Five minutes have passed.

Xia Chaoyue's hands, gripping the knife, were sweaty as she urged Lin Xiao in a low voice to prepare to summon Daji.

She believed that the "treacherous villain" must be dead inside.

Suddenly, a cold wind howled, and the sky and earth changed color.

The slightly clearer view was once again obscured by the flying paper money.

Each piece of paper money that falls to the ground transforms into a pale hand that reaches out from the ground and desperately grabs at the ankle of the living.

The enormous bridal sedan chair suspended in mid-air, its red curtains fluttering wildly, resembled a gaping maw ready to devour people.

boom!

The malevolent energy exploded. Centered on the bridal sedan chair, visible shockwaves crashed outwards like a tsunami!

"Clang!"

The long sword in Xia Chaoyue's hand let out a mournful cry, and its blade was instantly covered in frost.

Forced back several steps by this oppressive force, each step leaving deep footprints on the bluestone slab, her face as pale as paper.

"What... what is this?"

Xia Chaoyue's voice trembled as she looked at the bridal sedan chair in despair.

"Lin Xiao! Retreat! With the dungeon's enhancement, this ghost bride's strength is almost at the ninth-tier grandmaster level! Moreover, this is her domain; the rules kill, there's no way to stop it!"

however.

Lin Xiao did not back down.

He remained standing there with his hands in his pockets, letting the cold wind blow his messy hair wildly.

He raised his head slightly, looked at the bridal sedan chair, a slight smile playing on his lips, his expression playful.

"That's interesting."

Lin Xiao commented casually.

"The entourage is quite grand, but unfortunately the suona is being played a bit off-key, sounding like someone is wailing at a funeral, which is not auspicious."

Xia Chaoyue almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

Brother! This is a ghost marriage! It's a funeral! Why are you worrying about pitch at a time like this?!

Are you here to run a dungeon or to be a music judge?!

Just then.

A clear, melancholic voice, imbued with an ancient rhythm, pierced through the swirling snow and slowly emerged from the sedan chair.

"My lord, you possess extraordinary abilities, finding me so quickly..."

"Then please, my lord, come forward and... lift my veil."

Om-! !

As soon as the words fell, an invisible and immense force of rules descended instantly.

The entire space suddenly froze.

The wind stopped, and the paper money hung in mid-air.

Only the bridal sedan chair, magnified infinitely in view, exuded a deadly allure and danger.

Xia Chaoyue's pupils shrank suddenly, and she screamed in terror.

"Lin Xiao! Don't go!!"

"This is the core rule of a ghost marriage! Lifting the veil is a death sentence! Unless you are her destined one, or a master whose strength far surpasses hers, once you touch the veil, your soul will be instantly drained, turning you into a mindless paper effigy!!"

This is a lesson learned through the blood and tears of countless intruders!

In the top-secret files of Yenching University, the "lifting the veil" step in this copy has a 100% mortality rate!

"A deadly trap?"

Lin Xiao chuckled softly, and deep within his eyes, a golden dragon shadow slowly swam, letting out a low roar.

"Unfortunately, here, no one can set rules for me."

Done.

He strode leisurely toward the bridal sedan chair.

One step, two steps.

As he approached, the black mist and yin energy that were trying to erode him scattered frantically, like snow meeting molten lava, emitting a "sizzling" sound!

And so, under Xia Chaoyue's horrified gaze, he walked directly to the bridal sedan chair as if it were his own backyard.

The red curtain parted automatically.

The red figure sitting upright by the bed was so close.

Lin Xiao looked at the red veil, but a strange thought suddenly popped into his mind—

The material looks pretty average, like the kind you'd find on Pinduoduo for 9.9 yuan with free shipping. It's not even as well-made as the lace maid outfit Su Daji wore that day.

"My lord...why are you hesitating?"

Beneath the veil, Li Muyue's voice was tense and tentative, her fingertips already brimming with ghostly energy powerful enough to tear steel apart.

As long as Lin Xiao reveals the slightest flaw, or suffers a backlash from the rules, she will not hesitate to take action!

"hesitate?"

Lin Xiao shook his head, a smile playing on his lips, revealing a set of perfectly white teeth.

"I was just thinking, once I lift your veil, you'll be stuck with me for life."

Before he could finish speaking...

Lin Xiao slowly extended his right hand.

There were no fancy moves or props used.

It was all so ordinary that she managed to catch a glimpse of the red veil.

Li Muyue stared intently at the hand beneath her veil, her breath almost stopping.

The rules have arrived!

however.

The moment Lin Xiao's fingers touched the red veil.

hold head high--!!!

A high-pitched, majestic dragon roar, filled with an ancient and desolate aura, suddenly exploded within Lin Xiao's body!

In an instant, Lin Xiao's entire right hand burst forth with a golden light even more dazzling than the sun!

That's not internal energy, nor is it a superpower.

That is the glorious destiny of humanity! It is the will of the human emperor who suppresses all races and bestows titles upon all gods!

Before this supreme status, the so-called rules of the instance are like ants encountering their natural enemy, crumbling instantly!

"Get up!"

Lin Xiao gave a low shout and flicked his wrist.

Whoosh!

The red veil, which symbolized the curse of death, was unreasonably ripped off by him!

The red silk fell to the ground, resembling a burning flame.

A face as pale as snow, yet breathtakingly beautiful, was exposed to Lin Xiao without reservation.

Wearing a phoenix coronet and embroidered robe, with cinnabar between her brows.

Li Muyue's prepared killing blow vanished instantly upon sensing the overwhelming, pure, and vast golden imperial might approaching.

She stared blankly at the boy in front of her, whose body was radiating golden light, as if he were a god descended to earth.

The terror deep within her soul caused her ghostly aura, powerful enough to rival a grandmaster, to crumble instantly.

That's the suppression of bloodline.

It was a subject who met the king.

"Thump."

Li Muyue's knees buckled, and she uncontrollably knelt down in front of Lin Xiao.

Meanwhile, in a nearby corner, Li Jiahui, who had been secretly watching the whole thing, clenched her fists excitedly.

You made the right bet!
