Chapter 98: When Will You Two Get Married?
Inside the Assassin Temple.
Sheng Yue was still somewhat restless at this moment. His cloudy, old eyes were now very clear. He was sitting on a chair he had moved, intently watching the transmission array, waiting for someone to emerge from it.
"Temple Master, it's been a month. The Reincarnation Trial naturally takes a long time."
"One month is very difficult, one could even say basically impossible to complete. And this isn't an ordinary Reincarnation Trial; it's the trial of the final Ninth Layer. You understand what this represents, don't you?"
"According to the information in the Reincarnation Canon, the difficulty of this ninth Reincarnation Trial is equivalent to the sum of the previous eight layers!"
Ying Suifeng, standing aside, was trying to persuade the anxious Sheng Yue to go and rest.
Even though Sheng Yue was a Ninth-Step Warrior, staying in one spot without eating or drinking, relying solely on the circulation of spiritual power in his body to maintain his energy, he couldn't hold out for too long.
This was not a simple matter.
"You know it's very difficult, so shouldn't I be here waiting? If something goes wrong and I'm not here waiting, that would be troublesome," Sheng Yue sighed.
"But, one month is still impossible to complete. You are too anxious; you don't want to leave for even a moment," Ying Suifeng complained helplessly.
"Temple Master Sheng, the Ninth Layer Trial is over," Ye Ling walked up to Sheng Yue, speaking with a serious expression.
Sheng Yue's eyes immediately lit up. Without hesitation, he walked straight forward.
"And this time, we didn't stay there that long. Originally, it should have ended in just over a week, but Cai'er waited for me that long because of my breakthrough."
Seeing this, Sheng Yue's eyes sparked.
He was glad he had invited Ye Ling and asked him to help Cai'er.
"Just now, Suifeng was right. Every time Cai'er underwent the Reincarnation Trial before, it took three to five months at the shortest, and over a year at the longest. And if it ended earlier, it meant failure."
He brought Cai'er back with him!
Worthy of you, Ye Ling!
This scene completely stunned Sheng Yue.
Although he had let Cai'er go out with Ye Ling for two or three years, Sheng Yue could feel that, both from the last time and this time, Cai'er was clearly showing more smiles and closeness around Ye Ling. This was something she had never shown to him or to Sheng Lingxin and his wife.
"And he created his own Spiritual Aperture."
He has already reached this level of cultivation.
Suddenly, a dazzling light appeared at the transmission array's location. This was what happens when someone uses it.
However, in the next moment, Sheng Yue also began sizing up Ye Ling, intending to examine the difference.
Sheng Yue didn't know what Ying Suifeng was thinking, but he just silently walked over, waiting for the light to dissipate.
"After all, their auras have both increased immensely, far stronger than when they returned previously, right?"
"This aura, it's so unique. This must mean they succeeded, right?"
Hearing this, Ying Suifeng's old face stiffened.
Only Ying Suifeng was left standing foolishly in place, unsure what to say.
The man was handsome, and the woman was beautiful. The auras emanating from them were extremely vast, causing people to feel a chill and a slight sense of astonishment.
Sheng Yue, in particular, was an oddity among oddities.
At this moment, Sheng Yue couldn't help but praise Ye Ling and his own decision-making from before.
Are the two of them already that intimate?
If so, then what?
"And now they came out in just one month. Doesn't that mean they failed completely? Impossible, right? After all, Ye Ling was there. How could that happen!"
After saying this, Ye Ling looked at Cai'er with some apology, stroking her head. Cai'er did not resist; instead, she enjoyed it, shook her head slightly, and then looked at Ye Ling with eyes full of deep affection.
What text would you like me to translate next?
"It's truly wonderful."
Of course, Ying Suifeng wouldn't admit it. He just found another chair and sat down with Sheng Yue, watching everything unfold before them.
Two figures emerged from the array.
How old was Ye Ling, really?
This old scoundrel.
As a Ninth-Step Warrior with his strength, it was easy for him to observe.
He didn't have too many thoughts.
Hearing this, a smile flashed across Sheng Yue's face.
The next moment, the light dissipated.
At this moment, Sheng Yue inwardly cursed Ying Suifeng, this 'crow's mouth,' then turned his attention seriously to everything in front of him, constantly calculating in his mind, hoping that the so-called result was not what they feared.
If they were his own grandchildren, Ying Suifeng would now be doing everything short of getting in the way to help.
No one could compare to him.
He just felt that everything seemed slightly peculiar.
Back in the day, he was the number one talent in his generation, yet he only stepped into the Sixth Rank at twenty-one years old!
You!
What he said truly made sense.
Very good!
And that his chest would be like this meant one thing.
"Spiritual Aperture?" Sheng Yue murmured to himself. Then, he suddenly widened his eyes, looked earnestly at Ye Ling in front of him, and shouted loudly, "Spiritual Aperture? You actually formed a Spiritual Aperture? That is to say, your spiritual power has already broken through four thousand points? Achieving the Sixth Rank, becoming a Radiant Knight!"
Isn't this too terrifying?
"Yes, I am now a Radiant Knight."
"They aren't your great-grandchildren, so of course you're not anxious. If your own grandchildren were in there right now, I guarantee you, Ying Suifeng, would be more anxious than I am." Sheng Yue gave Ying Suifeng a sidelong glance, complaining without the slightest bit of tact.
And at this moment, remembering what Ying Suifeng had just said, Sheng Yue felt a bit conflicted and fearful.
He was just that powerful.
However, after he performed a quick scan, he immediately noticed something strange. The spiritual power on Ye Ling's body was extremely peculiar, constantly flowing toward one spot and then emanating from that spot. That spot was precisely the center of his chest.
This left Sheng Yue regretful yet satisfied. How good would it be if he could make Cai'er show such emotion?
Yes, truly peculiar.
Hiss.
Then, he saw Ye Ling emerge, holding Cai'er's hand, stepping out together.
Sheng Yue was greatly astonished.
"Old Ying, you truly are my lucky star! Good fellow, barely two sentences in, and Cai'er and the others are about to emerge."
Sheng Yue looked at everything before him, his mind immediately beginning to calculate.
Finished in one month!
Should he give them a push?
Perhaps the two children hadn't realized everything yet, but he had noticed it. For something that would naturally happen later, perhaps he could choose to move it forward?
It seems, that's exactly the logic!
Thinking of this, Sheng Yue suddenly looked at Ye Ling, making up his mind, and called out, "Ye Ling?"
"What is it, Temple Master Sheng?" Ye Ling asked, confused.
"When will you two get married?"
"???"
