In those beautiful eyes with long eyelashes, there was obviously a trace of dullness, and then the pupils suddenly enlarged.
"Ah!!!"
Bi Yaoyao screamed, suddenly leaning her body backward, while one hand fiercely slapped towards the face opposite her.
'Whoosh!'
Unfortunately, she hit nothing but air, staggering and almost falling to the ground.
Lou Yi's figure had already appeared several yards away.
With his current strength, being hit by Bi Yaoyao would have been a joke.
"Is this how you treat your savior?" Lou Yi said, speechless.
Bi Yaoyao wasn't a fool, it was just an instinctive reaction as a woman.
After careful thought, she realized that Lou Yi had saved her, pulling her out of the Illusion Realm.
Therefore, she only gave Lou Yi a fierce glare and stopped any further action.
"I don't want to, don't force me!" A painful voice came from the side.
You Qingyi was closing her eyes, her brows tightly knit, with tears all over her face, unclear about what she encountered in the Illusion Realm.
"Quick, save Qingyi!" Upon seeing You Qingyi in danger, Bi Yaoyao instantly forgot about her earlier harassment, urging anxiously.
"I'll try."
Lou Yi walked over to You Qingyi, getting close, resting his forehead against her smooth, jade-like forehead.
The touch was ice-cold.
In his mind, the hawk continued to fly out, entering into You Qingyi's 'world' along the contact of their skin.
The scene instantly changed.
The bright moon hung high, and the cold wind howled.
In the courtyard of a large mansion, two rows of blade-wielding guards in black clothing stood solemnly, while a kneeling, disheveled man was held in between them.
The man's hair was half white, appearing in his forties or fifties, with broken arms, covered in blood, obviously having suffered inhuman abuse before.
In front of the kneeling man stood two figures, one large and one small.
The large figure was a middle-aged man, wearing a black luxurious robe, with a stern face, standing with his hands behind his back.
The small figure was a girl, only eleven or twelve years old.
Her long hair was tied up, with eyebrows like ink, eyes like stars, vaguely showing hints of future extraordinary beauty.
"Yi Yi, kill him!" The man in the black luxurious robe spoke in a cold voice.
Then a guard stepped forward, respectfully holding up a sharp black dagger.
"Uncle Zhong... he watched me grow up, I really can't do it..." The girl, eyes filled with tears, shook her head and refused.
"He was begging on the roadside back then, it was I who brought him home, gave him food, shelter, a wife and children.
Who would have thought he was actually a descendant of the Yu Family, and who knows how much information he has leaked over the years!" The man in the luxurious robe yelled angrily, "For such a heartless, ungrateful person, what righteousness should we talk about!"
"Uncle Zhong, did you really betray my You Family?" The girl cried and asked.
"M-Miss, I, I didn't..." The half-white-haired man said miserably, "I had long forgotten the past, just wanting to always be by your side... see you grow, see you get married..."
"Father, did you hear that?" The girl still argued for her servant.
However, the man in the luxurious robe remained with a cold face: "You will be the Patriarch of the You Family in the future, as the head of the family, you can't have a woman's benevolence!
Even if ninety-nine percent of what he said is true, even if there's the slightest chance of it being false, it could lead to the destruction of our You Family!"
"Kill him!"
"No, I don't want to, don't force me..."
"Have you forgotten the ancestral teachings of the You Family, didn't you vow to revive the great achievement of our You Family, only by killing him can you prove you can do it!" The cold voice, each word bloody, forced the girl to commit the crime,
"Kill him, and you won't let down the expectations of your ancestors!"
The man in the luxurious robe forcibly put the dagger into the girl's hand and pushed her directly forward.
Tears filled the girl's eyes, looking at those familiar yellowish yet bloodshot eyes, she slowly raised the dagger in her hand.
The girl's dagger got closer and closer to him, and the familiar eyes also closed in despair.
At this moment, the hawk hidden in a tree in the courtyard coldly watched the entire scene with its golden eyes.
It was about to fly out of the tree to stop all this from happening.
'Huh?'
But the hawk suddenly paused its body because it noticed a change in the situation.
It saw that the girl's dagger was suspended in mid-air and did not fall again.
"You Qingyi, what are you doing!" The authoritative man in the luxurious robe looked visibly furious.
"I won't kill him." The girl's voice suddenly became incredibly calm, as if she were a different person, "Though I don't know who you are, bringing out memories from my childhood,
But I must thank you for helping me reaffirm my conviction.
I want to be myself, and I won't be driven by others anymore!"
Upon hearing these words, the face of the man in the luxurious robe showed a hint of astonishment.
Even the hawk hidden in the dark revealed a look of shock in its eyes.
Unexpectedly, You Qingyi relied on her will to forcibly escape from this Illusion Realm!
Just as You Qingyi finished speaking, the man in the luxurious robe and the numerous surrounding guards all became blurred in appearance and figure.
'Boom!'
The Illusion Realm shattered into pieces.
In reality, Lou Yi and You Qingyi opened their eyes simultaneously.
You Qingyi faced Lou Yi's face, which was close at hand, with a hint of surprise in her eyes, but did not dodge, instead staring straight at Lou Yi.
"Qingyi, you're finally awake!" Bi Yaoyao's surprised voice came from the side, only then did the two of them hurriedly separate.
"This Illusion Realm is really realistic, I almost couldn't walk out of it." You Qingyi awkwardly brushed her hair at her temples, temporarily avoiding eye contact with Lou Yi and Bi Yaoyao.
"You're amazing, able to escape the Illusion Realm on your own." Lou Yi sincerely praised.
He had many trump cards like the hawk and the black snake to barely get rid of the Illusion Realm.
Bi Yaoyao, being an elder's daughter, was already very outstanding, far surpassing her peers, but she still couldn't do it.
This alone proved You Qingyi's excellence, her future path of cultivation unlimited.
"Yes, if Lou Yoroura hadn't helped me..." Bi Yaoyao wanted to praise You Qingyi too.
But before she could finish, a green light descended from the sky, shining on You Qingyi, revealing her astonished expression.
In the green light, You Qingyi's figure went from solid to transparent, from transparent to pale, and quickly disappeared into nothingness.
"Qingyi has been transferred!" Bi Yaoyao said worriedly, "What's going on, we must hurry to save her!"
Lou Yi also couldn't figure it out, so he followed Bi Yaoyao quickly towards the next portal.
In his mind, the two-yard-two-foot-tall hawk was at this moment drooping its head listlessly, its eyes flashing with deep exhaustion.
'The hawk's Realm hasn't reached the point yet, unable to repeatedly leave the mind or linger outside for long periods.' Lou Yi couldn't help but have a sudden realization.
This situation should gradually improve with the hawk's growing strength.
"Alas, without Qingyi, we must be more cautious and steady with the subsequent challenges." Bi Yaoyao couldn't help but complain.
...
Lou Yi and Bi Yaoyao didn't know.
After You Qingyi was transferred away, none of the other cultivators in Master Han Yue's True Cave Mansion encountered the Illusion Realm test again, as if this test could only work once.
This resulted in some elite disciples' teams overtaking, surpassing the Lou Yi team, which was left with only two people and limited methods, at a noticeably reduced pace of breaking through.
A few hours later.
In a vast underground space inside the cave mansion.
A plain-looking man in deep blue Daoist Robe was the first to enter this place.
With a slight glance, his gaze was drawn to the colossal female statue in the center of the underground space.
The statue of a woman, entirely crafted from Flawless White Jade, held a book scroll in her hand, exuding a cold and ethereal aura, clearly the master of the cave mansion, Master Han Yue.
Beneath the statue, three items were placed, each temporarily protected by a translucent white light pillar.
On the left were several elixir bottles of various colors, on the right were two unknown weapons shrouded in black and white light, indistinctly visible.
In the middle was a scroll emitting dazzling green light, held by a stunningly beautiful woman whose appearance seemed somewhat familiar.
"You Qingyi? She obtained the true inheritance!"
The man looked at the depth-unknown restriction protecting You Qingyi, his face turning somewhat indecisive.
