Yu Yuan slowly opened his eyes.
It was still a cold night in the silent wilderness. The trial takers who were lucky enough to survive were seizing the time to cultivate.
Every one of them held a spirit stone.
Only the pure spiritual energy within the spirit stones could be absorbed into the body and quickly recover their strength.
Yuan Ting, Yu Feifei, and the other companions of Dark Moon City were also among the crowd, cultivating with rapt attention.
"Moon Devil …"
Yu Yuan organized his thoughts. He only remembered that he had swung his sword across the air. Feng Xin's flesh exploded, and the Moon Devil inside seemed to fly out.
He had no impression of what had happened after that.
At this moment, he still felt a splitting headache, and his consciousness was muddy.
This was caused by consuming too much of his mind, and even his refined heavenly soul had been consumed too much.
The sword light that was branded in his arm calmed down again.
However, he clearly felt that the hand that used his arm as a sword was sore and powerless. It seemed that his meridians, flesh, and blood had also suffered significant injuries from that sword strike.
After thinking carefully, he gradually came to realize that the sword intent in the air had caused the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to go berserk dozens of times.
Feng Xin's flesh and the shrunken fake Su Yan were all torn to pieces by the berserk spiritual energy.
"That sword strike wasn't just a simple transfer of soul power. It could also trigger a spiritual energy riot!"
Yu Yuan was stunned for a few seconds, and then he suddenly realized that if he'd stepped into the Golden Hall Realm and opened up his Dantian and was able to store and circulate spirit energy, then the might of that boundless, vast, and ancient Sword Insight would surely be even stronger.
This sword intent was extremely lethal to both physical and spiritual entities!
If he could find that sword, hold it in his hand, and combine the sword and soul into one, then slash out, wouldn't his killing power be monstrous?
"You're awake?"
Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded in his ear.
Yu Yuan stopped his wild thoughts and looked behind him in surprise.
Lin Zhuyun, dressed in blue, sat quietly like an orchid in an empty valley.
A huge golden book was placed under her body. Her clear and cold eyes had an indifference that kept people a thousand miles away. Her expression was also quite strange.
She seemed to have something to say, but was secretly suppressing it.
"Why are you here?"
Yu Yuan looked around again and realized that the person closest to him was not Zhao Yafu or Zhan Tianxiang, but his fiancée in name.
"What about me?" Lin Zhuyun frowned. An inexplicable flame of irritation rose in her heart. "Do you think I'll hurt you? At this time? "
"That's not it." Yu Yuan grinned, "It's just that I don't trust you."
At the crucial moment, Su Yan had already turned the Divine Feather Heavenly Robe into a cocoon, firmly taking care of herself and not him, let alone Lin Zhuyun who was originally filled with malice.
"I want to ask you a question." Lin Zhuyun suddenly looked into his eyes.
"Where is the Moon Demon? Alive or dead? "Yu Yuan asked instead of answering.
"The Moon Demon escaped. Because of Li Yu's Sacrificial Soul Orb, the Moon Demon did not dare to possess anyone else." Lin Zhuyun thought for a moment and decided to answer Yu Yuan's question first so that he would feel better. "I feel that the Moon Demon needs time to adapt to another person's body. It needs to absorb moonlight to strengthen the body of the possessed person."
"Therefore, if it chooses a person on the spot, it will not be able to unleash its full power."
"After the Moon Demon leaves, it will find a new body and merge with it again. Only when it has enough confidence will it reappear."
She then told him everything that had happened after Yu Yuan had fallen unconscious.
Then, she continued, "I have a question."
Yu Yuan narrowed his eyes and said indifferently, "Go ahead."
"For seventeen years, have you been pretending to be stupid, but have you been fine all this time?" Lin Zhuyun's eyes suddenly sharpened. "You're pretending to be crazy just to embarrass me and the Lin Family, aren't you? Did you want others to think that my fiancé is a fool? "
This was the confusion that had been lingering in the depths of her heart recently.
After being muddle-headed for seventeen years, he was able to change the situation in Dark Moon City and win Yuan Lianyao's trust as soon as he woke up.
His maid, An Ziqing, was a Yin Spirit expert from the Sect of the Blood God.
Moreover, the Yu Clan had suddenly gained a new alchemist. She didn't know if he was a real alchemist, but Yu Can's broken knees had already recovered.
Yu Yuan's performance during the trial in the forbidden region had also been eye-catching. Whether it was his wisdom, judgment, or battle prowess, he had impressed everyone.
Even Yan Lu, Su Yan, Zhan Tianxiang, and the others had expressed their admiration for him. Even Li Yu had specifically told everyone to protect him.
This meant that Li Yu had also approved of Yu Yuan in his heart.
Who would believe that Yu Yuan had been muddle-headed for seventeen years?
All these facts made her feel that the Yu Clan and Yu Yuan were dissatisfied with the engagement with her, and that they were deliberately doing this to humiliate her and the entire Lin Clan!
What kind of grudge did he have against her that he would deliberately target her like this?
Flames seemed to be burning in the depths of Lin Zhuyun's cold eyes.
"You're ridiculous."
Yu Yuan found it funny. "It's your clan's problem, and you're blaming it on me? You were the one who wanted to break the engagement. If the dowager hadn't suppressed you, you would have succeeded long ago. After Old Madam passed away, all of you had indeed done so. How can you still make false accusations now? "
"If you hadn't pretended to be crazy, would the Lin Family have done this?" Lin Zhuyun forcibly suppressed her anger. "If you had shown such talent and wisdom before, would the Lin Family and I have treated you and the Yu Clan like this?"
"I'm sorry, Miss Lin," Yu Yuan said with a cold snort. "I'm sorry that I've disappointed you. I still need to focus on recovering and waiting for the moon devil to reappear. So please don't disturb me! "
With these words, he closed his eyes and ignored her.
Lin Zhuyun's shoulders trembled slightly. She was almost convinced that Yu Yuan and the Yu Clan had deliberately targeted her because they didn't want the engagement to go through. Then, they had asked Yu Yuan to pretend to be crazy so that the Lin Family would take the initiative to break the engagement.
"B-Big Brother Yu."
At this moment, Su Yan walked over and looked at Yu Yuan who had his eyes closed and Lin Zhuyun who was trembling with anger. She said softly, "I didn't mean to disturb you, but I also have a Vitality Pill that can help Big Brother Yu recover his energy faster."
Yu Yuan abruptly opened her eyes and immediately stretched out her hand, "Then it would be impolite to refuse."
"You're welcome," Su Yan said earnestly. "You saved everyone's lives, so this is what I should do. Also, when we get out of the forbidden land of Falling Moon alive, I'll report this to my father and let him know that Uncle Su Yin was prejudiced against you back in Dark Moon City.
"The truth is that the Su Clan and the Yu Clan don't have any grudges against each other.
"Don't worry, Big Brother Yu. I'll take care of those small misunderstandings!"
With these words, she placed the Vitality Pill in Yu Yuan's hand.
Lin Zhuyun suppressed the irritation in her heart as she suddenly rose to her feet, grabbed the book under her, and left without saying a word.
"What's wrong with her?" Su Yan asked curiously. "She was the one who volunteered to protect you in my place."
"Forget it," Yu Yuan said, curling his lips. "She'll only bring me trouble. Even though you can't be relied on at critical moments, you still have the Vitality Pill."
"Who are you calling trouble?" Lin Zhuyun turned around and glared at Su Yan.
Su Yan looked somewhat embarrassed as she said, "Big Sister Lin, I didn't mean anything by it. I just thought that we should work together against a common enemy. Plus, Big Brother Yu needs the Vitality Pill, so …"
"He's still my fiancé in name. Please stay away from him!" Lin Zhuyun said coldly.
"Oh." Su Yan bowed slightly and gave Yu Yuan an apologetic smile before she turned around and left.
Looking at her back, Yu Yuan smiled, as if she was lost in thought.
As for the furious Lin Zhuyun on the other side, he still didn't pay attention to her.
He pretended that he didn't hear her angry rebuke and pretended that he didn't know that the green-clad girl from the Su Clan had come here to provoke her.
