After breaking off the engagement, my aloof fiancée regretted it

The muscles on Leng Liechuan's face trembled slightly because of the force. He looked at the jade ruyi in his hand in disbelief. This treasure, which was said to be able to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, was actually like a red-hot iron at this moment, sucking his hand tightly!

"Damn it! What the hell is this thing?!" Leng Liechuan roared, and his other hand suddenly condensed a ball of icy spiritual energy and smashed it hard at Yu Ruyi, trying to separate the two with brute force.

However, his full-strength attack was like a drop in the ocean. Not only did it fail to shake Yu Ruyi at all, but it made the suction even stronger. The spiritual energy in his body gushed out like a flood, rushing towards Yu Ruyi uncontrollably.

"Ah!" Leng Liechuan let out a painful roar, his face turned extremely pale in an instant, and beads of sweat rolled down his forehead. He felt as if his body had been hollowed out, and he was so weak that even standing became difficult.

At this time, Zhong Yan was also caught in an even more bizarre situation.

The blood on the scroll seemed to come alive and quickly merged into the scroll. The originally simple surface of the scroll actually began to appear bloody lines, emitting a strange glow.

Zhong Yan only felt a bone-chilling chill rushing from his fingertips to his forehead, causing him to shiver. Then, a strong suction force came from the scroll, madly devouring his spiritual power. His body shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his originally ruddy face turned as pale as paper.

"This... what kind of weird martial arts is this?!" Zhong Yan was terrified and wanted to let go of the scroll, but found that his hands seemed to be stuck and he couldn't move at all.

The muscles on Zhong Yan's face twitched slightly because of disbelief. He looked down at his hand in horror. The hand that was once full of strength was now shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye. He felt his vitality and his cultivation being lost madly along with the strange power and being absorbed into the seemingly simple scroll.

"What...what's going on?!" Zhong Yan's voice was trembling, and his eyes were full of fear. He wanted to let go, but found that his hand was like being sucked by a magnet and could not move at all.

Leng Liechuan was also stunned by this sudden change. He looked at Zhong Yan's painful expression and suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart. An invisible force swallowed his body like a whirlpool.

"This is impossible! This is impossible!" Zhong Yan roared madly. His body had become like a withered branch and his vitality was rapidly fading away.

At this moment, another change occurred!

The originally dull jade ruyi and the ancient scroll suddenly burst into a thousand-foot-high light, and a huge transparent figure slowly emerged. It was shaped like a big bird, with the blue sky on its back, its wings covering the sky, and its eyes shining like the sun, moon and stars, exuding an ancient and primitive aura. It was the ancient fierce beast - Kunpeng!

Everyone present was shocked by this powerful pressure. Their legs went weak and they couldn't help but kneel on the ground, with only endless fear and awe in their hearts.

Kunpeng's shadow glanced coldly at everyone present, and his gaze finally fell on Zhong Yan and Leng Liechuan who had turned into mummies, and he snorted contemptuously: "Hahaha... Greed is the root of all evil... They must pay the price for their greed!"

A cold voice suddenly sounded in everyone's mind, like a ghost, making people feel creepy.

As soon as the voice fell, Kunpeng's shadow turned into two streams of light, which respectively entered the jade ruyi and the scroll. The original dazzling light disappeared in an instant, and the two treasures returned to calm, as if nothing had happened.

Everyone present was stunned watching this scene, and their hearts were filled with shock. They never thought that the so-called reward was actually a test!

In just a short while, the Kunpeng inheritance actually eliminated Zhong Yan and Leng Liechuan!

Those who were originally a little greedy and wanted to take the opportunity to grab the treasure were now scared pale and sweating profusely. They were secretly glad that they did not let greed get the better of them, otherwise they would have become mummies now!

"This..." Lin Mengqi was also stunned by this sudden change. She looked at Yun Yifei blankly, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Yun Yifei looked calm, as if everything was within his expectations. He bent down to pick up the jade ruyi on the ground, turned to look at Lin Mengqi, with a relaxed and happy smile on his face: "Let's go, let's continue to choose treasures."

Lin Mengqi nodded woodenly, followed Yun Yifei, and walked away.

Ye Tianming bent down and picked up the ancient scroll that had fallen to the ground.

The scroll felt cold to the touch, and there seemed to be a faint wave coming out of it, causing the spiritual energy in his body to stagnate slightly.

"This thing is very evil, you'd better be careful." Su Yao frowned slightly, looking at the scroll with some fear in her eyes.

Yun Manyao looked thoughtful: "That voice should be Kunpeng's soul, right? It said 'greed is the root of all evil', and that they have to 'pay the price'... It seems that this so-called reward is a test in itself."

"Only take three treasures, no more, otherwise you will be like them..." Ye Tianming's eyes flickered, and he felt a little scared in his heart.

If he had not been cautious enough and not been blinded by greed, they would probably be the ones lying on the ground now.

"So, what we experienced before was not a real test at all?" Su Yao murmured to herself, with confusion on her pretty face, "When will the real test be over?"

No one can answer this question.

The three of them fell silent, and the atmosphere suddenly became solemn.

After a while, Ye Tianming slowly spoke: "Perhaps, as long as we leave this hall and return to the secret room, we will have successfully passed the test."

His tone was somewhat uncertain. After all, all this was just their speculation and there was no evidence to prove it.

Just then, several figures slowly walked out from behind a row of shelves not far away.

"Haha, it seems they have guessed something." Su Yichen sneered and stared at Ye Tianming's back with a cold look.

"It is indeed as he said. Only when we leave this palace can we truly pass the first test."

There was an inexplicable light flashing in Lan Xinyao's beautiful eyes. She looked at Ye Tianming deeply and said, "But this is just the beginning..."

Her voice was soft, but it carried a chilling chill.

Ye Tianming and the other two had no idea that they were being targeted. They walked cautiously through the treasure house, picking out the treasures they needed.
