Chapter 8: Hearing the Heart

Chapter 8 Hearing the Heart’s Voice
The mountains and rivers flew by, and in a blink of an eye, they had already returned to Lianshan County from the snowy northern border.

At this moment, the highest peak of the Lian Cang Mountain Range was hardened and cut in half.

It was then that five strong men with heavenly breath, shrouded by a blur of light and shadow, unable to see their faces, were besieging a woman.

That woman, a red dress, each hand holding a blood-colored knife wheel, the whole body bathed in blood, not to lose the world’s face.

“That’s, me!” Shen Yuxue was horrified.

In the next moment, all the images disappeared in front of her eyes.

Shen Xiaoxue woke up leisurely and realized that she was lying on the floor of her boudoir.

She was in a trance for a moment and immediately opened the system panel.

Seeing the prompt of mission completion, her petite body shook tremendously, confirming that, all that just happened, was not a dream.

However, she was even more bewildered.

“Su Yan, the wife that he would rather give up entering the Fourth Grade Holy Land to save, is it actually me?”

“But why? That was clearly a past life?”

Shen Xiao Xue had thought that after viewing the memories of her past life, everything would come to light, but it turned out to be in exchange for such an even bigger mystery.

“System, why did it end? I want to see more.” Shen Xiao Xue immediately pursued the system.

“This time’s content ends here, if the host wants to obtain more memory fragments of Su Yan’s past life, he needs to complete the subsequent tasks.”

Shen Yixue: “……”

On the other hand, after Su Yan and Gu Nanyi returned to the City Lord’s Mansion, he also immediately took the Realm Breaking Pill to Gu Nanyi and swiped it.

“Ding, it was detected that the host successfully gifted Gu Nanyi a Boundary Breaking Pill – Omniscient Elderly Version, triggering a hundredfold return, you have obtained one hundred Boundary Breaking Pills – Omniscient Elderly Version.”

“Strange! Why is this Boundary Breaking Pill labeled with the name of the alchemist?”

Su Yan immediately discovered what was wrong.

“Elder Omniscient?” Su Yan muttered, but it seemed that he, too, had never heard of such an alchemist’s name.

Su Yan also doubted that there could be something wrong with this elixir, but thinking that, in his previous life, Shen Xiao Xue was fine even after eating it, he still ate it with peace of mind.

Gu Nanyi only used one of these pills to break into the Xuanfu realm; he himself used eight of these pills to break into the second realm of the Martial Arts Sect, the “Pure Yang” realm.

As the saying goes, once you wake up from a dream and enter the Pure Yang, from then on, I am me.

Pure Yang realm of martial artists, the body qi veins, acupoints and even a number of irrigation through, the essence of the three treasures of the spirit of the spirit of the fusion of one, placed in the ancient times, is the earth’s half-immortal.

And in the martial arts flourishing now, pure Yang realm before and after the martial artists, but also two kinds of creatures.

In addition to the direct gap in strength, the way of borrowing external objects is also very different, are tens of millions of years ago, the ancient martial artists would never have thought of.

For example, after the Pure Yang Realm, there are beast martial artists whose flesh can combine with demonic beasts, weapon martial artists who combine with spiritual weapons, and spirit martial artists who combine with martial spirits ……

This was still only the play style of the Shi Yuan World, and it was said that there were other play styles in the other great worlds that extended out from the Shi Yuan World.

After entering the Pure Yang Realm, all the other martial artists, they needed to look for compatible spirit beasts and spirit weapons, but Su Yan had Gu Nan Yi, the treasure girl.

“Ding, it is detected that the host successfully gifted Gu Nanyi’s Yellow Rank 5th Grade Spiritual Beast, Snowy Mei Cat, triggering a 10,000 times return, you have obtained an Earth Rank 9th Grade Spiritual Beast, Bijie Frosty Sky Tiger.”

“Ding, it was detected that the host successfully gifted Gu Nanyi with a sixth-grade yellow-rank spirit weapon, the Black Feather Sword, triggering a thousand-fold return, and you obtained a first-grade Xuan-rank spirit weapon, the Blood Domain Ten Crow Sword.”

“Ding, it has been detected that the host has successfully gifted Gu Nanyi with the Yellow Order Third Grade Spiritual Beast Three-Tailed Snow Fox, triggering a ten thousand times return, you have obtained the Xuan Order Third Grade Spiritual Beast Demon Moon Fox Jun.”

“Ding, it has been detected that the host has successfully gifted Gu Nanyi with the Yellow Rank Third Grade Spiritual Weapon White Silver Wheel, triggering a thousandfold return, you have obtained the Xuan Rank Ninth Grade Spiritual Weapon Grinding Wind Wheel.”

“Ding, it has been detected that the host has successfully gifted Gu Nanyi with the Yellow Order Third Grade Spiritual Artifact Eight Segmented Blood Spear, triggering a ten thousandfold return, and you have obtained the Earth Order Ninth Grade Spiritual Artifact Falling Divine Spear.

…………

Outside the city ……

A building ship with a silver-white body, inlaid with several giant dragon reliefs, was docked right outside the city gates of Beishan City.

This was Su Beishan’s seat, given by the dynasty, the Great Yan Dynasty, every city fortress, had such a ship.

Today was the day that the young Celestial Pride of North Mountain City departed for the Holy Land Examination.

Because of its remote location, the departure time of North Mountain City was much earlier than the rest of the other Lianshan County’s vassal cities.

Su Yan also brought along Gu Nan Yi and arrived before the appointed time.

Shen Xiao Xue was one step ahead of them.

She was wearing a long red brocade dress, with exquisite gold thread embroidery flowing between them, delicate and gorgeous. The long dress fit her delicate and delicate body, outlining the absolutely beautiful curves.

The phoenix pattern on the hem of the dress spread its wings.

When she looked back, it was a stunning splendor that transcended the earthly world.

Shen Xiao Xue saw Su Yan and Gu Nan Yi. She couldn’t help but turn away her eyes, and a touch of unnaturalness appeared on her pretty face.

In this regard, Su Yan did not notice, now he naturally would not pay attention to how Shen Xiao Xue’s emotions, but on the contrary, Gu Nanyi beside him was flabbergasted.

In her ears, a female voice suddenly sounded, and it was clearly Shen Xiaoxue’s voice.

“Is he actually recalling the memories of his previous life?
If so, why was he willing to give up the opportunity to become a strong man for me in his previous life, but in this life, he is a stranger and wants to go to a small beggar as a companion?

If not, where did the earth-shattering changes in his body come from?”

Gu Nan Yi froze.

At once, her eyes glanced darkly at Shen Xiaoxue.

However, Shen Xiaoxue clearly had her mouth closed, but that voice was still ringing in her ears.

Gu Nan Yi, who had always had a heart as quiet as water, was also startled this time.

She actually heard Shen Xiaoxue’s heart!

For a moment, Gu Nan Yi couldn’t help but wonder if she was hallucinating.

But when she realized that Shen Xiaoxue’s gaze, from time to time, looked towards Su Yan, she was shaken again.

At this moment, she, however, would not have thought that everything was due to that Realm Breaking Pill that Su Yan gave her yesterday.

The Omniscient Old Man was already a character from ten thousand years ago, because of that, it was not surprising that his deeds were no longer known in this era.

However, in his era, the world knew that Old Man Quanchi, even though he was a First Grade Dan Master, the pills he refined would always have some unexpected and unintended effects in addition to their own effects.

This time, it seemed to be hearing the heart.

With the passage of time, outside the gates of North Mountain City, it is also gradually surrounded by a large number of martial artists.

“Miss Shen! Go for it!!!”

“Miss Shen, you’re sure to be this year’s top martial artist!”

“Goddess Shen, I’m your fan!!!”

In North Mountain City.

Shen Xiao Xue’s popularity was unprecedented.

Combining beauty and strength, it naturally reaped countless adoration.

What’s more, North Mountain City hadn’t been ranked first in the Holy Land Examination for a hundred years.

With the strength that Shen Xiao Xue had displayed, the crowd felt that she was very hopeful this year.

Martial Scholar of the Holy Land Examination, this was more than just fame, for the city fortress behind it, it was a massive amount of benefits.

Hearing the cheers of the crowd of martial artists, Shen Xiao Xue just smiled, she has long been accustomed to all this.

She glanced at Su Yan and Gu Nan Yi in front of her and boarded the boat.

Su Yan and Gu Nanyi, after her, also boarded the boat.

Su Yan glanced around the building ship, this ship came from the Great Yan Dynasty’s Supervision and Construction Division, very different from the Northern Mountain City’s rustic atmosphere.

Half an hour later.

On the Dragon Gate List, all those who were qualified to participate in the Holy Land Examination had arrived.

Whoops.

The three huge six-winged camel beasts flapped their wings, and the enormous wind pressure carried the building ship up into the air.

It was about a day’s time before arriving at the county town.

As the sun set in the west and the afterglow shone obliquely between the mountains of Lianshan County, a huge flying building ship slowly rose up, breaking the wind.

The teenagers and girls who were leaving Beishan City for the first time showed their anticipation and looked out from the railings one after another.

The ship traveled at a fast speed, and the three camel beasts of the first grade of the yellow rank had both strength and lightness.

Standing on the deck, you can witness the surrounding rolling hills and verdant forests.

The wind was blowing, bringing gusts of cold air, and it seemed that one could smell the unique ancient atmosphere of Lianshan County.

One day later.

Beishan City’s building ship landed in the most prosperous county town of Lianshan County.

Su Yan and the others stepped off the floor boat and turned their heads around.

Looking around, a palace that towered into the clouds.

This was the style of Lianshan County.

To say that it is the atmosphere, Yuan Gu?
In Lianshan County, the county city and the city fortress, the biggest difference is the size of the building.

And the location of this holy land examination is in that biggest building ……

Lianshan Martial Arts Stadium.

Raising their heads, looking up at that far away, all black boulders carved, unique, casting huge shadows of the terrifying giant hall, many people, could not help but swallow their saliva.

This is …… the Lianshan Competition Stadium that claims that every brick is stained with blood!
Su Yan just swept a glance and withdrew his gaze.

In his last life, he had come many times.

Witnessed Shen Xiao Xue’s brilliant battle.

Oh yeah, a hundred years later, this place would be reduced to ruins in a great battle between Shen Night Snow and a Martial King.

At this moment, when the crowd from North Mountain City, walked into the black hall, there were already a lot of people from other fortresses there who had come to step here.

Seeing a large group of people enter, they cast their eyes.

“”Where are these village people from? There are actually so many Pulse Opening Realm ones!”

“”There’s someone I recognize inside, it seems like they’re from North Mountain City.””

“”So it’s those villages that are at the bottom year after year! No wonder.”

“”That woman in red is so beautiful!””

Apart from Shen Xiao Xue’s appearance, it caused a huge buzz. The crowds in North Mountain City didn’t attract too much attention.

The chain of contempt in Lianshan County had always been from the county city, then to the several superpower city-states of Falling Wood, Ice Prison, and Berserk Beast. As for the likes of North Mountain City, it had always been at the bottom of the contempt chain.

“Nan Yi, no need to be pressurized, our goal is just a ninth grade holy land.” Su Yan said to Gu Nan Yi.

In fact, with Su Yan’s current strength of the Pure Yang Realm, even if it was those few heavenly prides of the county city, he felt that he would not be able to win.

Just that, he still liked to dog it, and the stage would be left to Shen Xiao Xue.

On the other side, in front of Shen Xiao Xue, there stood a tall youth dressed in black and wearing a sword.

“Ms. Shen, I am Ouyang Zhefeng, my father is the County Head of Lianshan County. Uncle had mentioned the marriage between you and me two days ago.”

Ouyang Zhefeng looked at Shen Xiaoxue, and in the depths of his eyes, he couldn’t help but flash a touch of infatuation.

Once when his father told him that the one who came to propose marriage was the daughter of a small family in the remote countryside, he had been very unimpressed.

But now that he had seen her in person, his mindset had instantly changed drastically. Even in the eighth grade holy land of the Nine Specters Sword Wash Pond, he had never seen such a beautiful woman.

It wasn’t just her looks, but also the aura around her that was cranial.

“Mr. Ouyang, I am the master of the Shen family, so my father proposing marriage to you counts for nothing.”

Shen Xiao Xue frowned, no matter how much her parents blew this Ouyang out of the water, in her eyes, she was not worthy of herself.

Taking a step back, even Su Yan couldn’t compare.

Su Yan was the one who had the chance to join the Fourth Grade Holy Land.

Watching Shen Xiao Xue turn around and leave, Ouyang’s complexion stiffened, it was the first time that he was met with such cold treatment in this Lianshan County’s boundary.

“”That one is her ex-husband!””

Ouyang Zhefeng followed where Shen Xiao Xue’s gaze had just gone, and immediately he saw Su Yan, and immediately laughed.

Time passed very quickly, turning to the next day.

With all the martial artists from the thirty city fortresses present, the once every five years Holy Land Examination had officially begun.

The next day.

Within the black hall, thirty rings were set up.

The rules of the Holy Land Examination were a ring-keeping system.

Any martial artist on the Dragon Gate List who could successfully guard the ring for three rounds would be able to leap the Dragon Gate.

Although it seemed like there were loopholes to be exploited, under the noses of the five holy lands, there was no one who had the guts to look for a trust.

Greeted by the head of Lianshan County, the group approached.

At the head were a man and a woman, two black-clothed sword-wearing martial artists.
