What? You opened a resort on the battlefield of all races?

Chen Dong turned around and looked at Chu Hong again.

"Patriarch Chu."

"The marriage proposal was a rule set by the Chu family themselves."

"Since there are three challenges, we have to overcome all three, right?"

This sentence finally put Chu Hong in a dilemma.

He stood still, first looking at Chen Dong, then glancing at Xu Tianlin.

He certainly understood the reasoning.

The news of the Chu family's public marriage proposal spread throughout the twelve prefectures.

As a result, the Chu family suddenly announced:

There's no need to compare anymore.

Whoever Lady Lingyuedie takes a liking to can be her.

If this got out, the Chu family would lose face.

But the problem is...

Chu Hong's gaze slowly fell on Ling Yuedie again.

The Realm of Integration with the Dao.

It was a Dao Fusion Realm cultivator standing next to Xu Tianlin, whose humble attitude was somewhat incomprehensible to Xu Tianlin.

Chu Hong himself had only just entered the Qiankun Realm.

In Xiling Prefecture, those at the Qiankun Realm are certainly considered powerful figures.

But compared to someone at the Fusion Realm, they're a whole major realm apart...

Not to mention that the young man in front of her was the "boss" that Ling Yuedie mentioned.

Chu Hong suddenly felt that being the head of the Chu family was a bit exciting.

The son-in-law has not been chosen yet.

First, you encounter someone you don't know if you can afford to offend.

He opened his mouth.

"this……"

It took a while to get through.

On the contrary, Xu Tianlin's eyes slowly softened with a smile as he looked at Chen Dong's stubborn refusal to back down.

interesting.

"Alas, beauty is a curse~"

Xu Tianlin sighed.

He was just stuffing himself with a teleportation scroll, as if he was afraid he was too naive to have seen the world.

Is this a sign that they're about to turn against me?

Xu Tianlin glanced at Chu Qian again.

Then I recalled the bottle of Moon Essence that was specially prepared for Lingyuedie in Lixin Rock.

He already had a pretty good idea of ​​what was going on.

Seeing that Chen Dongming knew Ling Yuedie was at the Fusion Realm, and knowing that his "boss" had dubious origins, he still gritted his teeth and stepped forward...

Xu Tianlin suddenly felt playful and took half a step forward.

"Oh?"

"you mean……"

Xu Tianlin looked at Chen Dong.

"Want to continue to the third trial?"

Chen Dong raised his head.

The two looked at each other.

The surrounding chatter subsided without them even noticing, and some people even quietly moved aside a little.

Fearing that the two might not reach an agreement, the Dao Fusion Realm expert cleared the way for his boss.

Chen Dong did not back down.

He met Xu Tianlin's gaze and paused for a moment.

"That's right!"

The two words landed decisively, without the slightest hesitation.

Xu Tianlin looked at him and suddenly smiled.

"Okay then."

"Then let's continue."

After Xu Tianlin finished speaking, Chen Dong visibly breathed a sigh of relief, then turned around and looked at Chu Hong beside him.

But Chu Hong stood still.

He first looked at Chen Dong, then at Xu Tianlin, and finally slowly shifted his gaze to Ling Yuedie.

Lingyue Butterfly: "..."

Why are you looking at me like that?!

It almost couldn't help but shout those words out loud.

Wasn't what the expert just said clear enough?

continue!

You, the head of the Chu family, why aren't you leading the way? What are you staring at me for?

Do you expect me to hold another meeting and vote on this?

Looking at Chu Hong's obvious desire for a definite answer from her, Ling Yuedie suddenly felt a little tired.

Humans are truly complex.

It had always heard that one of the most impressive things about humans was their ability to assess situations and make judgments.

Fight if you can win, run if you can't.

If you really run into someone you can't afford to offend, just put your face in your pocket. Yesterday's enemy might be today's sitting down to discuss cooperation.

Very flexible.

But why are all these people so stubborn today?

Ling Yuedie secretly glanced at Chen Dong, especially at him.

This hothead is really fearless!

Do you know who you just bumped into?

The Demon Emperor's brother-in-law!

Even the demon kings in the abyss have to behave themselves when they see him.

You offended her brother-in-law and really upset him. He might casually mention it at the dinner table later.

"I participated in a matchmaking event today, and there was this guy who was really annoying."

and then?

I'm afraid that eight or ten demon kings will come to ask me questions the very next day—

Brother-in-law, could you point out which kid? We'll handle the rest ourselves.

Thinking of this, Ling Yuedie looked at Chen Dong with a hint of heartache.

This butterfly is saving your lives!

Why are none of them appreciating this?

Lingyuedie glanced at Xu Tianlin again.

Fortunately, the other person had a smile on their face, and there was no anger in their eyes when they looked at Chen Dong.

At least for now, this bigwig hasn't turned on Chen Dong because of what he just said.

Ling Yuedie finally felt a little relieved.

"call……"

Thankfully, he didn't get angry.

As for continuing to the third level...

Lingyuedie thought about it again and suddenly felt that it wasn't bad either.

drag!

The longer we can delay, the better!

Row.

The third stage must be continued.

If anyone tries to stop us from continuing, I, the butterfly, will be the first to disagree!

Thinking of this, it immediately took two steps forward.

Just moments ago, he was inwardly disliking Chu Hong, but now he's putting on a loyal and devoted act for his boss.

"What are you standing there for?"

Lingyuedie glared back at Chu Hong.

"Didn't you hear what my boss said?"

It raised its hand and waved, "Then let's continue!"

Chu Hong paused for a moment after it shouted.

"good……"

What else can be said?

One of the participants in the marriage proposal continued.

One of the Dao Integration Realm cultivators continued.

As the legitimate head of the Chu family, he felt more like the one leading the way.

Chu Hong felt somewhat awkward.

But now that the matter had been discussed, he didn't dwell on it anymore.

"Gentlemen, follow me."

After saying that, Chu Hong turned around and walked deeper into the Chu family compound.

Chu Qian followed behind her father, and Chen Dong quickly caught up as well.

Before leaving, he turned back and glanced at Xu Tianlin.

Xu Tianlin smiled at him.

Chen Dong's lips twitched twice, but in the end he said nothing and turned to continue forward.

The remaining martial artists looked at each other.

No one thought of it.

This matchmaking event, which seemed destined to end prematurely, actually continued.

What was even more unexpected was that the one who actually managed to complete the third challenge was Chen Dong, the guy they had just called a love-struck fool.

"Let's go."

Someone greeted them in a low voice.

"We've come this far."

"We should at least see what the third level is like, right?"

"I'm not going, I'm a little afraid of dying..."

……

Soon, the group of people followed Chu Hong and left the area where Lixin Rock was located.

As the mountain road continued forward, it began to narrow, with the mountain walls on both sides slowly converging towards the middle.

The stone path underfoot has obviously been there for many years. Its surface has been polished smooth by generations of footsteps, and fine cracks can be seen in some places.

"interesting."

Xu Tianlin glanced at it a couple more times.

When you try to sense the space, it feels like you're separated by a long corridor that has been repeatedly folded in half.

One layer upon another, the distance was forcibly kneaded together.

Further ahead, there was something familiar, yet slightly different from the aura of ordinary alien races.

Bloodline.

The further you go, the clearer the blood-like fluctuations in the air become.

Chu Hong, who was at the very front, finally stopped.

Everyone looked in the direction he was pointing, and saw that the mountain path ended there. Ahead was a black mountain wall that was concave inwards.

In the center of the mountain wall, there is a tall cave entrance.

There was no gate at the entrance of the cave, nor were there any elaborate decorations.

Only on the two rock walls on both sides can you see deep marks that look like they were made by sharp claws.

The cave was dark and seemed to stretch on forever.

His gaze swept across the faces of Xu Tianlin, Chen Dong, and the people behind them.

"here."

Chu Hong raised his hand and pointed to the dark cave behind him.

"This is the sacred land of my Chu family—"

"Snow Shadow Wolf Den".

"The third trial is also very simple."

"Enter the wolf's den."

"Gaining the approval of the Snow Shadow Wolf Spirit."
