Chapter 312

587. Regret, really regret now.

"Isn't that a redundant question?" Lu Li replied unhappily, and at the same time gave Sister Daji a slap without hesitation.

Being slapped by Lu Li, Sister Daji wasn't angry, and even showed an expression of enjoyment.

Seeing this, Lu Li couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

This fox was becoming more and more presumptuous; after the Holy See trip ended, he had to find a chance to discipline her no matter what.

*Hmm? *

A trace of panic suddenly flashed in his heart; although it disappeared quickly, it still attracted Sister Daji's attention, after all, at her level, such an abnormality would only occur in very rare cases.

It was a pity that with nine fluffy big tails flicking around, Sister Daji couldn't think of what the panic in her heart just now originated from.

This made the fox's beautiful eyebrows frown; she didn't believe that it was a coincidence just now.

……

"I say buddy, you're too unkind." Bei Xingyu also came to Lu Li and Yan Yuexin at this time, a bitter smile on his face.

Beside him, Qu Zhixuan looked at Sister Daji, who was hanging on Lu Li and looked harmless, a trace of wariness flashing in her eyes.

Although she was one of the Flame Spirit Sect's Saintess candidates, her strength was still a bit worse than Bei Xingyu's; since even Bei Xingyu wasn't Sister Daji's opponent, she naturally wouldn't be Sister Daji's opponent either.

"I only summoned one Magic Card Spirit here, how is that unkind?" Regarding this, Lu Li couldn't help but roll his eyes.

Although Sister Daji was a twelve-star Magic Card Spirit, she didn't even use her skills just now—that was already enough mercy!

*You only summoned one Magic Card Spirit, but you summoned a super-tier sequence Magic Card Spirit, directly dropping a bomb, and you still have the nerve to say you're kind. *

Bei Xingyu couldn't help but complain wildly in his heart, but after seeing Sister Daji's gaze, he could only shut his mouth silently, pulled out a few words, and quickly ran away with Qu Zhixuan.

This time, Qu Zhixuan didn't cause trouble; after all, Sister Daji put quite a bit of pressure on her too.

Seeing Bei Xingyu and Qu Zhixuan run away, the other onlookers also scattered; there was no show to watch, so naturally, they went about their own business.

"You come back first too," seeing this, Lu Li patted the nine-tailed fox again; if he let this fox stay outside, heaven knows what kind of trouble she would cause for him.

"Master, remember to let me out more often, otherwise I'll be very empty~!" It had to be said, a fox is a fox; although Sister Daji returned to the Eternal Land obediently, she still left a meaningful sentence before leaving.

Sure enough, Yan Yuexin's gaze toward Lu Li had become subtle again, and she even moved a few steps away silently.

Seeing this, Lu Li suddenly felt a bit tired, regretting again: why was his brain short-circuited at that time, and he agreed to Sister Daji's request?

……

The next day, Lu Li and the others set off again; the Flame Spirit Sect was just a transit station, and the location where the inheritance trial was truly held was not within the Flame Spirit Sect, after all, the inheritance trial was aimed at the entire Holy See, and the Bone Burial Ground was not within the scope of the Flame Spirit Sect.

This time, it wasn't just Yan Qian and the others who set off; Yan Zhen and Ying Wan also brought many Flame Spirit Sect personnel to act.

In addition to Yan Yuexin, the Flame Spirit Sect also had Qu Zhixuan, the second Saintess candidate.

"I heard you guys fought yesterday, what was the result?" On the road, Yan Zhen suddenly asked.

He and Yan Qian and the others discussed for almost a whole day yesterday, and it was only this morning that he heard about yesterday's events.

Taking advantage of the time now to set off for the Bone Burial Ground, Yan Zhen found time to ask.

Hearing Yan Zhen's inquiry, the eyes of Yan Qian and the others also fell on Lu Li and the others following behind them.

This should be considered a relatively formal contest between the new generation of the Ancient Kingdom and the Holy See, so both sides were quite interested.

"Although saying this might be a bit of a damper, Your Majesty the Pope," being watched by everyone, Bei Xingyu looked a bit nervous, but still said truthfully: "But we did lose."

Losing was losing; Bei Xingyu wouldn't find other excuses for himself, and he was convinced of his loss yesterday.

Plus, there were quite a few onlookers yesterday; if Yan Zhen and Ying Wan really wanted to be serious, they could just grab a few people and ask, and they would know everything.

On the side, although Qu Zhixuan didn't speak, she also nodded silently.

"Haha!" Seeing this, Yan Qian took the lead: "You heard it, Old Man Yan, the strength of our Ancient Kingdom's young generation is not inferior to your Holy See's."

Not just not inferior, Bei Xingyu directly stated that he was not Lu Li's opponent.

However, considering there were many outsiders here, and Yan Zhen was his in-law, Yan Qian gave the other party some face this time.

Of course, if there were no outsiders, Yan Qian would have a different attitude.

"Hmph!" Although Yan Qian gave him some face, Yan Zhen was still very unhappy, and at the same time a bit conflicted.

He knew Bei Xingyu's strength; he was enough to rank in the top three of the Flame Spirit Sect's young generation, but the other party took the initiative to admit that he lost, which already showed that Lu Li's strength was stronger than Bei Xingyu's.

This was actually a good thing; the stronger Lu Li's strength was, the greater the chance Yan Yuexin would have to successfully obtain the inheritance in the upcoming inheritance trial.

It's just that although Yan Yuexin was his great-granddaughter, Bei Xingyu and Qu Zhixuan also represented the Flame Spirit Sect, and both sides could be considered his own people, which made Yan Zhen a bit conflicted.

*You say a draw would have been fine, why did you lose? *

Thinking of this, Yan Zhen glared at Bei Xingyu fiercely; it seemed that after the inheritance trial ended, he would have to increase the training intensity.

Being stared at by Yan Zhen, Bei Xingyu couldn't help but tremble, his heart bitter—this wave was really self-inflicted!

……

Time passed, and after about half a day, everyone finally arrived at the place where the inheritance trial was held—a secluded valley.

"Alright, let's all go down, it seems that people from other religions have already arrived," at the very front, Yan Zhen reminded everyone, then looked at Yan Qian, and took the lead in leaving the Cold Cloud Sparrow. Seeing Yan Zhen and Yan Qian move, everyone followed closely behind.

Even when coming to the Holy See, the Cold Cloud Sparrow was still a conventional means of transportation; this point was the same as in the Ancient Kingdom.

It seems that no matter where they go, the Cold Cloud Sparrow cannot escape this fate.

588. Being targeted unknowingly.

"The Flame Spirit Sect people are here, which means the Ancient Kingdom people have also arrived."

"Red hair and red eyes, this iconic appearance, it seems to be the daughter of the Yan Qinyun girl; she has inherited her mother's temperament, and it looks like she is even better."

"When Yan Qinyun married out back then, it caused quite a sensation; I didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, her daughter has grown up."

"It's just that I don't know how strong this girl is."

"I'm more curious about the strength of this girl's guardian knight. Come to think of it, this is the first time since the establishment of the Holy See that a non-Holy See Magic Card Master has participated in the inheritance trial."

"Logically speaking, being able to be selected by Yan Qian, this young man's strength shouldn't be bad; perhaps he can be used as a standard to guess the strength of the Ancient Kingdom's new generation."

Seeing Yan Zhen and Yan Qian appear, the Popes of other religions who had arrived earlier in the valley began to talk to each other.

Although the number of Popes present was not large, only about ten or so, none of them had strength lower than the Immortal Realm.

With Immortal Realm strength, wanting to investigate Lu Li or Yan Yuexin's realm was really not a difficult thing, after all, the two were only in the King Realm.

However, no one chose to do so.

Not to mention that the two Undying Realm big shots, Yan Zhen and Yan Qian, were on the scene; if they were to investigate Lu Li and Yan Yuexin's realm, I'm afraid these two would instantly go berserk.

But more importantly, the inheritance trial had continued for so many years, and no one had ever done this; the consequences would be equivalent to angering everyone.

Even the Popes of the six major religions wouldn't do this; this was the bottom line for everyone present, and no one could touch it.

Not only these Popes from different religions, but also the Saint and Saintess candidates of various religions following these Popes, as well as their guardian knights, were also very curious about Yan Yuexin and Lu Li.

Or rather, more curiosity fell on Yan Yuexin.

There was no way around it; the sensation caused by Yan Qinyun back then still had quite a few aftershocks, after all, she was the first Saintess of the Holy See to marry out.

And this time, it was the descendant of this married-out Saintess who obtained the title of Red Lotus Saintess, becoming a Saint and Saintess candidate for this term along with them.

Plus, she was from the Ancient Kingdom, one of the three great empires along with the Holy See; with various attributes superimposed, Yan Yuexin naturally became the focus of everyone.

"Are they the Saintess candidates from the Ancient Kingdom? They don't look any different from us."

"But don't say, this Ancient Kingdom candidate Saintess is really beautiful; I feel she is much more beautiful than the other Saintess candidates."

"Isn't that nonsense? That's Saintess Yan Qinyun's descendant!"

"Yan Qinyun back then was the number one beauty of our Holy See; her daughter inherited her looks, so it's impossible for her to be bad."

"Even Yu Xunqin is a bit lacking."

Yu Xunqin, one of the Saintess candidate candidates, her strength might not be the strongest, but she was definitely one of the most popular crushes with the most topics!

Among the Saintess candidate candidates, Yu Xunqin's popularity had always been at the top, and even Qu Zhixuan of the Flame Spirit Sect, one of the six major Holy Sees, couldn't compare.

But with Yan Yuexin's appearance, it seemed to shake Yu Xunqin's position in everyone's hearts.

"Is that so? I think that male Magic Card Master is quite handsome, very much in line with my XP! If he were a Magic Card Master of the Holy See, how good that would be."

As for Lu Li, although some Saint and Saintess candidates also had their eyes on him, it was much less than Yan Yuexin, and they quickly moved their eyes away.

Of course, there were also some Saintess candidates who seemed quite interested in Lu Li, especially since Yan Qinyun had started this trend before.

However, after thinking about it, these Saintess candidates finally withdrew their gazes.

Yan Qinyun's success back then involved many accidental factors; they really had no possibility of successfully replicating it.

At the very least, they didn't have an Undying Realm grandfather like Yan Zhen as a background.

Regarding this, Lu Li was actually quite happy; he had no interest in these Saint and Saintess candidates.

Not to mention, after the inheritance trial started, they would be competitors, so there was no need to know each other.

As for Qu Zhixuan and Bei Xingyu, they became even more transparent, and not many people's eyes fell on them. ===== CHAPTER 313 =====
