Forced to become a pure and innocent female pharmacist in order to cultivate immortality.

"That depends on how firm one's Dao heart is. This kind of musical technique usually brings out a person's most feared experience. I'm a little curious, what's your biggest fear, kid? I'll have to take a good look later," Lin Qingyou teased.

Ye Liuyun was also a little confused. She couldn't figure out what she was most afraid of. She felt that she shouldn't have anything to fear.

Ye Liuyun sat down with the other disciples who were taking the assessment.

Xi Yu, who was on the stage, also floated down and sat down. She placed the guqin on her lap and began to prepare to play a piece.

"Are you all ready? I'm about to begin playing," Xi Yu reminded them again.

Everyone nodded, and Xi Yu gently plucked a string from the zither.

With their eyes closed, the group heard only clear, melodious piano music playing in their ears. The music was very relaxing, and their consciousness gradually became hazy.

Ye Liuyun also felt as if she was about to fall asleep, but just as she was about to drift off, her consciousness suddenly returned.

"Huh?"

Ye Liuyun slowly opened her eyes, but found herself in a very familiar room.

"Where is this? This is my residence in Qixia Town, right?" Ye Liuyun looked around in confusion. Looking at the room's furnishings, she realized that this must be the day she was to marry Lin Aoxue, as everything was red.

Ye Liuyun was a little confused; she couldn't remember how she had returned to her wedding day.

Ye Liuyun hurriedly walked to the door, wanting to go out, but as soon as she opened the door, two servants blocked her way.

“Young master, the master said that you are not allowed to go anywhere before the wedding begins,” a servant said sternly.

"Huh? This?" Ye Liuyun was stunned and could only retreat back to her room.

"Oh, I remember now, damn it, I'm supposed to marry Aoxue today, but I've turned into a woman now, how can I marry her? No, no, I have to find a way to leave here and go to Yunxia Sect. If she finds out I've turned into a woman, I'm doomed!" Ye Liuyun said anxiously.

Ye Liuyun paced back and forth in the room. Strangely, Ye Liuyun's current state was somewhat peculiar; she seemed to have no memory of what had happened before.

This method of music is quite interesting; it blocks a portion of the trial participants' memories.

Ye Liuyun was thinking of a solution, and she quickly came up with one.

She waited for a while, waiting for the maid to come and deliver a message. After a while, a maid entered Ye Liuyun's residence, and Ye Liuyun attacked the maid just like last time.

After knocking the maid unconscious, Ye Liuyun changed into the maid's clothes and prepared to disguise himself and slip out of the Ye family. However, this time the result seemed to be different from the last time. Ye Liuyun had just stepped out of the room and had not taken more than a few steps when he was stopped by two guards.

"Halt, young master, your disguise is too clumsy!" A guard looked at Ye Liuyun speechlessly.

Thus, Ye Liuyun's plan to disguise herself and sneak out of the Ye family was thwarted, and she was invited back to her room by the servants.

"Damn it, what's going on? Why is it not what I imagined?" Ye Liuyun cursed after returning to her room.

The time was approaching, so she could only change back into her original clothes and wait for the inevitable. After a while, Ye Suifeng arrived.

"Second brother, second brother, I heard you tried to fake your escape but were discovered by the servants. I think you should just accept your fate." Ye Suifeng laughed as he entered Ye Liuyun's residence.

Ye Liuyun was speechless as he watched his older brother walk in.

"Brother, I don't want to marry into the Lin family, please let me go?" Ye Liuyun pleaded.

"That won't do. How can I explain to my parents if I let you go? Besides, it's just sending you to the Lin family as a son-in-law. Our two families live right across from each other, why make such a big deal out of it?" Ye Suifeng comforted him.

Ye Liuyun knew that his attempt to escape was probably futile.

And so, under Ye Suifeng's personal escort, Ye Liuyun was forced onto the bridal sedan chair at the gate and then carried into the Lin family home by the Lin family members.

"Strange, why does something feel off?" Sitting in the sedan chair, Ye Liuyun calmed down and felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't remember what it was.

The bridal sedan chair was lowered shortly after entering the Lin family home.

"New son-in-law, you should come down now. We've reached the door of Miss's boudoir." A middle-aged woman lifted the curtain and said respectfully to Ye Liuyun.

Upon hearing this, Ye Liuyun sighed softly, then helplessly stepped out of the bridal sedan chair and entered the room where Lin Aoxue was.

Ye Liuyun was extremely anxious. How could she marry Lin Aoxue in this state? If Lin Aoxue found out about the changes in her, how would she explain it? How would she face the Lin and Ye families? If things continued like this, she would be exposed tonight.

Upon entering the new house, Ye Liuyun saw Lin Aoxue sitting gracefully on the edge of the bed.

She had a toothache, and when Lin Aoxue heard the door open, she knew it was Ye Liuyun who had come in. She immediately pulled off the veil on her head.

"What's wrong with you? I heard you're very unhappy about marrying into our Lin family?" Lin Aoxue, dressed in red, stood up and questioned him with some displeasure.

Lin Aoxue looked truly beautiful today, but Ye Liuyun was in a panic and had no mood to appreciate her beauty.

Chapter 73 Escape from the Illusion

The Lin Aoxue in this illusion was created entirely based on Ye Liuyun's understanding of Lin Aoxue, so it is no different from the real Lin Aoxue.

"Eh? Me, Aoxue, I think we can't go through with this marriage," Ye Liuyun said, forcing a smile.

Today, she must leave Qixia Town to go to Yunxia Sect to participate in the entrance examination. If she misses today, it will be too late tomorrow, so time waits for no one, and she must get Lin Aoxue's consent.

"No? Why? We were almost married in our past life, and we finally have the chance to get married in this life, and now you're telling me we can't? You'd better give me a reasonable explanation." Lin Aoxue put her hands on her hips and immediately showed an unfriendly look.

Ye Liuyun glanced at the sky outside the window, then took a deep breath and decided to be honest. She raised her hand and took off her clothes right in front of Lin Aoxue.

"Hey? What are you doing? It's not time for the wedding night yet, why are you taking off your clothes?" Lin Aoxue was taken aback by Ye Liuyun's sudden action and took a few steps back. She thought that Ye Liuyun couldn't wait and wanted to consummate the marriage with her right now, which made her face turn red and she was very shy.

But she immediately realized she was wrong, for Ye Liuyun had already taken off her wedding attire.

As soon as she took it off, Lin Aoxue noticed that something was wrong with Ye Liuyun's body. There were ribbons wrapped around Ye Liuyun's chest and waist, which looked very strange.

"What? Liu Yun, what's wrong with you? Why are you wrapping ribbons around your chest and waist?" Lin Aoxue was confused.

Ye Liuyun didn't care about anything else. She directly untied the silk ribbon around her neck, and once the ribbon was untied, a pair of parts that Lin Aoxue was all too familiar with were displayed in front of Lin Aoxue.

Lin Aoxue was dumbfounded on the spot.

"What? What's going on? You, how did you grow breasts?" At this moment, Lin Aoxue felt that her worldview was about to collapse.

Ye Liuyun coughed a few times, then stopped pretending and spoke directly in a female voice.

"Aoxue, this is why I can't marry you. Don't worry, listen to me, it's because..."

Ye Liuyun quickly explained to Lin Aoxue how he had accidentally turned into a woman while refining medicine.

After hearing this, Lin Aoxue looked as if the sky was falling. After all, her husband had become a woman, which was not something to be happy about.

Even if Lin Aoxue doesn't mind, would her family accept it? Obviously not.

"Damn it, you! I told you not to mess around with your random pills, but you wouldn't listen. Now look what you've done to yourself! What are we going to do?" Lin Aoxue was furious.

Lin Aoxue's reaction was exactly the same as the real Lin Aoxue.

Because if they were to go through with their wedding ceremony, the truth would definitely be revealed tonight. Once both families find out that Ye Liuyun has turned into a woman, they certainly won't allow them to be together.

If they want to stay together, they must leave the Ye family and go far away; they have no other choice.

"Don't blame me yet. I just made a mistake in combining the medicine. As long as you give me time, I will definitely be able to develop an antidote. But now, we must leave here. Isn't the Yunxia Sect recruiting disciples? We can leave Qixia Town and join the sect. Wouldn't that solve everything?" Ye Liuyun reminded him.

Lin Aoxue thought about it and then realized that this was the only thing she could do.

There was no time to dwell on these things; they needed to leave Qixia Town first.

"I really don't know how to complain about how good you are." Lin Aoxue quickly walked to the wardrobe in her room and took out two sets of clothes.

"I think you're about the same size as me, so you should be able to wear my clothes. Change your clothes, and let's elope together," Lin Aoxue said seriously.

"Ah? I, I don't want to wear women's clothes," Ye Liuyun said, feeling very ashamed.

But Lin Aoxue didn't care about her.

"Are you going out like this without any clothes on? How am I supposed to take you out like this? Hurry up, there's not much time left, we're about to go to the wedding ceremony. Stop being so coy. No wonder your personality has changed so much over the years, you've become a woman." Lin Aoxue said impatiently.

Ye Liuyun had no choice but to embarrass herself in order to go to Yunxia Sect. Lin Aoxue gave her a set of white women's clothing, and she changed into a set of black. In this world, women's and men's clothing were actually quite similar in style, with the only difference being the color and pattern.

There were no problems putting them on, and the two of them changed their clothes completely in just a few minutes. As for hair accessories, they didn't have time to fix them.

"Wow, I can't believe it! I never thought you'd actually be quite attractive as a woman!" Lin Aoxue said, looking at Ye Liuyun with a wry smile.

"Stop making fun of me, let's go." Ye Liuyun urged.

Lin Aoxue nodded, then led Ye Liuyun to a window at the back of the room. They were on the second floor, and there were people outside, so they definitely couldn't go out through the front door.

After opening the window, Lin Aoxue suddenly gestured to Ye Liuyun.

"Come on, put your arms around my neck," Lin Aoxue gestured.

Ye Liuyun nodded awkwardly, then, like a little woman, she hugged Lin Aoxue. Lin Aoxue also picked up Ye Liuyun and then leaped out of the second-floor window.

Lin Aoxue's skills must be quite good, after all, she has been practicing martial arts since she was a child, and she is definitely not comparable to Ye Liuyun.

The two landed steadily on the ground.

"Handsome," Ye Liuyun praised.

"Tch, of course. The two of us are too slow. I'll carry you, it'll be easier that way," Lin Aoxue said.

Ye Liuyun nodded in agreement. And so, Ye Liuyun dodged the servants and headed towards the stables, while Lin Aoxue had to take her own mount.

However, they had only been gone from Lin Aoxue's boudoir for a short time when they were discovered by the servants from the Lin family who had come to inform them of the wedding ceremony.

"What? Oh no! Miss and her new husband have disappeared!" the maid exclaimed.

This shout caused an uproar throughout the entire Lin family.

Lin Aoxue, carrying Ye Liuyun, had already arrived at the Lin family's stables. Fortunately, no one was there, and they could already hear the commotion from the other side.

"We've been discovered, we need to hurry," Lin Aoxue said, slightly anxious.

Lin Aoxue easily carried Ye Liuyun over the wall and into the stable. Then she opened the back door of the stable and rode her own horse, carrying Ye Liuyun, out the back door.

However, they were discovered by the Lin family as soon as they left.

"Yes, Miss! Where are you going, Miss?" the Lin family members called out hurriedly.

But Lin Aoxue would definitely not answer them.

"Giddy up!" Lin Aoxue urged her mount to speed away from the town.

However, not long after, two groups of people from the Lin and Ye families also rode out of the town in pursuit.

"Ah! We escaped! You scared me to death. I thought I was doomed today." Ye Liuyun said, letting out a sigh of relief as he hugged Lin Aoxue's waist.

"You're getting too excited. We're practically the only sons in our families. How could our parents let us go off to cultivate immortality so easily? And you, why didn't you tell me you'd become a woman sooner? Of all times, you had to tell me on our wedding night. It's infuriating!" Lin Aoxue complained.

Ye Liuyun knew it was her fault. She was just afraid that Lin Aoxue wouldn't be able to accept it. She didn't expect that Lin Aoxue would only scold her a few times and then not care.

Chapter 74 Disgusting Guy

It can only be said that Ye Liuyun underestimated Lin Aoxue's love for her, which is why he kept it a secret all this time. When a woman doesn't mind that her man has become a same sex, that is definitely true love, and it has already transcended the physical realm.

Ye Liuyun didn't refute Lin Aoxue's words at all. She just leaned against Lin Aoxue's back, and the two quickly disappeared on the mountain path. The worries and fears in her heart gradually dissipated.

This illusion also illustrates a point: Ye Liuyun has never truly let go of his worries.

As her fear dissipated, Ye Liuyun felt as if she were exhausted and slowly fell asleep. However, not long after her consciousness drifted off, she heard the sound of a zither, which suddenly woke her up from her tired state.

"Huh?" This sudden awakening made Ye Liuyun instinctively open his eyes. As soon as he opened his eyes, he realized that everything just now was just an illusion.

Ye Liuyun glanced around at the cultivators from the four sects who were still in a state of unconsciousness. It seemed that she was the first one to wake up.

"What a realistic illusion. That must be another possibility. If I hadn't disguised myself and escaped back then, I probably would have had no choice but to confess to Aoxue and then flee Qixia Town with her," Ye Liuyun murmured.

She stood up and looked at Lin Aoxue, who was standing next to Yun Yun on the stage. Lin Aoxue smiled when she saw Ye Liuyun wake up.

"Is this guy's willpower that strong? He was the first one to wake up in the whole room." Lin Aoxue thought to herself in surprise.

It would be difficult for Ye Liuyun to avoid attracting everyone's attention this time. In fact, Lin Aoxue deserves a lot of credit for Ye Liuyun's quick awakening. In the illusion of consciousness, different choices will produce different results. The people in your illusion are all created according to your own cognition.

Lin Aoxue's personality is like that, so she can accept Ye Liuyun's fear. Once she accepts Ye Liuyun's fear, then the so-called fear will naturally disappear.

"This little girl actually woke up first? Interesting. A disciple at the early stage of the Spirit Stream Realm has a stronger will than their peak Spirit Stream Realm disciples," Xi Yu murmured.

Now that she had passed the test, Ye Liuyun certainly didn't intend to stay put. She smiled at Lin Aoxue and then walked to the side.

"Master, I'm going to my sister's place." Lin Aoxue greeted Yun Yun immediately.

Yun Yun nodded, and Lin Aoxue left in front of everyone. However, what Lin Aoxue didn't know was that Qi Chaoying's eyes lit up the moment she saw Ye Liuyun, as if she had seen some kind of treasure.

"What a beautiful and refined girl! Her temperament is so captivating. Sister? Is this girl Lin's sister?" Qi Chaoying was quite surprised after hearing Lin Aoxue's words.

These are a perfect pair of sisters, one like a proud snow lotus of the Tianshan Mountains, the other as delicate as a lotus emerging from the water.

Is this guy trying to make a move on Ye Liuyun and Lin Aoxue? He's so shameless! I wonder who gave him that confidence.

Ye Liuyun and Lin Aoxue left the martial arts arena and went to a secluded place. But as soon as they arrived, before Lin Aoxue could even ask Ye Liuyun what he had experienced in the illusion,

Ye Liuyun then grabbed Lin Aoxue, pinned her against the wall, and kissed her lips.
