The female lead thought she had a "proud and arrogant" character script.

Chapter 31 Dao Heart

No, who are you, brother?

The person in front of me had an overly young face.

He was not exactly the same as that white-haired, wrinkled, white-bearded Taoist priest; in fact, they were completely unrelated.

Seeing that Luo Qingcheng still looked wary and surprised, the Taoist seemed to remember something and muttered, "Oh right, I forgot that your memory is locked."

He drew a sword from his whisk—

Hmm? A whisk? A sword?

Luo Qingcheng was surprised.

But there was something even more shocking to her.

The Taoist priest took out a yellow talisman drawn in cinnabar from his wide sleeves and flicked it with the tip of his sword.

The yellow talisman flew swiftly and straight toward Luoqing City.

She was startled. For some reason, her first reaction was that the talisman would explode. She hurriedly tried to dodge it and quickly turned and ran.

But the yellow talisman seemed to have a GPS tracking system installed, following closely behind Luo Qingcheng as he slithered left and right, and he couldn't shake it off no matter what.

"Qingcheng, don't run away!" the Taoist priest called out from behind, his voice tinged with laughter.

Bring your index and middle fingers together and make a circle in the air.

The yellow talisman's speed immediately increased by more than double.

Luo Qingcheng happened to turn around, and the yellow talisman kept getting bigger in her eyes.

"My life is over!"

Thinking this, she didn't give up the struggle, but instead used her last bit of strength to jump off the altar—

She'd rather commit suicide!

With a "snap," Huang Fu caught up with her.

The instant it was pressed against Luo Qingcheng's back.

Memory returns.

Luo Qingcheng blinked: ? ? ?

Luo Qingcheng's mouth dropped open: !!!

The intense feeling of weightlessness made her lose her composure, and Luo Qingcheng cried out in alarm, "Ah—Hui Yinsui! Come and save me!"

"Hahahaha!" Gray Seal laughed as he flew on his sword, catching Luo Qingcheng just as she was about to touch the ground.

Luo Qingcheng collapsed to the ground.

He was breathing heavily.

My heart rate spiked to 190.

She clutched her wildly pounding heart, looked up at Hui Yinsui standing beside her, who seemed to be in a wonderful mood, and accused him, "Senior Brother Hui, if you laugh again, I'll get angry and..."

Huiyin raised an eyebrow and let out a low, guttural sound.

"Ok?"

Luo Qingcheng: ...

"I just got angry."

Huiyin said, "You didn't just act on a whim; you acted as if you wanted to tear the sky apart."

Upon hearing this, Luo Qingcheng blushed, a rare occurrence for him.

She lowered her head, thinking about her childish remarks just now, and really wanted to live on another planet.

Even the thought of Li Zhiming saying that elders would be watching the assessment process in real time makes me want to leave this heartbreaking world.

Seeing her expression, Huiyin quickly realized what was bothering her.

While suppressing a laugh, he said, "Junior Sister Luo, don't worry. This assessment was added by my master at the last minute, and the spiritual artifact can't cover this area."

Luo Qingcheng looked up expectantly and asked cautiously, "So... no one knows except you, right?"

The gray mark nodded in agreement.

Upon seeing her thoughtful expression and the murderous glint in her eyes, he raised his hands in surrender, saying, "Don't worry, Junior Sister Luo, I will never tell anyone about this."

Luo Qingcheng laughed, "Senior Brother Hui, what are you talking about? Qingcheng doesn't have any bad intentions. Qingcheng has always been pure and kind. Only the dead would keep secrets. Beautiful, cute, and generous."

Huiyin nodded. "Junior Sister Luo is indeed always pure and kind. She's not dead, yet she keeps her mouth shut. She's beautiful, lovely, and generous."

Luo Qingcheng assessed the difference in strength between himself and Hui Yinsui, pretended nothing had happened, and changed the subject, "Why did Senior Brother Hui's master add an extra test?"

A gray stain accompanied a bitter smile.

He was also temporarily conscripted as a laborer.

"It's because you pulled too many tricks in the previous 'Kindness' and 'Benevolence' tests, leaving the elders confused and unable to determine whether you should pass the first 'Inquiry into the Heart' test. That's why we added a small test for you temporarily."

Luo Qingcheng looked shocked.

"What?! Am I not a high-scoring candidate who's good enough for direct admission?!"

Huiyin was even more shocked than her. "What? You actually thought you were a high-scoring candidate with the potential for direct admission?!"

Luo Qingcheng was greatly affected.

Huiyin said, "If your actions hadn't aroused the interest of many elders and received great attention, you would have been eliminated in the first round."

Of course, what Huiyin didn't say was that although Luo Qingcheng's methods were inappropriate, he inexplicably and quickly resolved the problem within the illusion.

In the first illusionary realm, the grandfather and grandson were demons who hunted by exploiting human kindness. Once someone offered them help, they would secretly look for an opportunity to slaughter the kind family.

They believe that evil people with black hearts are unpalatable, while good people with red hearts are delicious.

Once the examinee enters the illusion, if they act out of kindness, they will be attacked, suffering serious injuries at best, and death at worst.

If left unchecked, the grandfather and grandson will become much stronger and have a bigger appetite after consuming human hearts. In the end, they will attack the examinees without hesitation and will not escape the same fate.

Before this, only the "living Yama" who took pity on the grandfather and grandson and chose to kill them to end their suffering could be considered to have completed the test without taking any damage.

The subsequent leak of exam questions will be discussed later.

Luo Qingcheng buried the grandfather and grandson directly. As the snow fell heavily and the ice froze three feet deep, the two who had been pretending to be dead finally died.

Nip danger in the bud.

The second level has two branches.

In the first branch, after the woman blinded the short man, she returned home and was killed by him with a knife in the middle of the night.

The woman would transform into a vengeful ghost on the seventh day after her death, demanding the man's life and then taking revenge on all the passersby who ignored her.

If a man chooses to help the woman, he will be accused of being the woman's lover and will be surrounded and drowned along with the woman.

If it were a woman, and she lacked strength, like Luo Qingcheng, she would be killed along with the enraged man.

In the second branch, the woman dies without struggling.

Then they carried out indiscriminate retaliation.

However, with Luo Qingcheng's reminder, the woman returned home and, taking advantage of the man's unpreparedness, and especially since the man had been blinded, even though he was very strong, the woman added a large amount of calamus to the Chinese medicine she was brewing for him, and easily killed him.

The plot after it was abruptly cut short.

It was also because Luo Qingcheng's illusion ended too quickly that the elders could not discern what kind of Dao heart she possessed, which is why they specially added a trial for her.

Unexpectedly, Luo Qingcheng still managed to end everything with a clever trick.

Hui Yin could easily picture his master scratching his head in distress.

Looking at Luo Qingcheng's distressed expression, Huiyin decided to show his respect to the old hairdresser, whose hair was falling out so fast he was becoming bald.

Of course, I also took the opportunity to rescue myself from being conscripted.

He asked directly, "Junior Sister Luo, why do you seek immortality and enlightenment?"

Luo Qingcheng didn't react immediately when he heard the question.

He had originally intended to brush it off, but seeing that Huiyin's serious expression meant it wasn't just idle talk, he began to think about it carefully.

Hmm, we can't exactly say that the system sent her, can we?

But it was the system that sent her here.

What other reason could there be besides this?

Luo Qingcheng repeatedly answered in his mind and then crossed out his own answer.

To protect all living beings?

No, she just wished for world nuclear peace.

To become stronger?

Isn't this a bit lacking in substance? You won't get a high score this way, right?

For the sake of family and friends?

She was all alone; where would she find relatives and friends?

What other reason is there?

We can't really tell Huiyinsui that her motivation for being arrogant and humiliating others is to show off and slap others in the face, can we?
