"Dong …"
The mighty sound of the bell reverberated, and the sun and moon intersected. Multicolored light filled the sky.
A figure walked out from the multicolored light.
It was an old man in a white robe. It was the Song Family's ancestor, Song Tian.
"Everyone's presence brings light to the Song Family's son-in-law selection. Let's not waste time. Everyone, please! "
The Song Family's ancestor laughed and waved his hand. Endless multicolored light filled the air, and the entire square shook.
The stars moved, and heaven and earth changed.
The surroundings were filled with multicolored clouds. It was as if they were on top of a white cloud.
A table was placed in front of everyone, and on the table were some wine and spirit fruits.
"Everyone, this is the place where my Song Family's son-in-law selection will take place."
The Song Family's ancestor, Song Tian, smiled and nodded at the people sitting in front of him. "The auspicious time has arrived. The Song Family's son-in-law selection will officially begin!"
As he spoke, the Song Family's ancestor waved his hand. A breeze swept past, and the clouds in front of him rolled, revealing a strange world.
This was a vast world with mountains and seas. But … the most eye-catching thing was a tree.
It was an enormous tree that connected the heavens and the earth. The towering tree was rooted in the earth and reached the sky. Its size was unimaginable.
Even the roots that hung down from the giant trees were like enormous dragons, wriggling up to the sky.
The giant tree connected the sky, and its aura was vast and majestic, as if it was supporting the heavens and the earth.
"This is the Builder Tree!" Song Tian said with a smile. His gaze swept across everyone, and he pointed at the giant tree in front of him. "At the top of this tree, there is a precious pearl. Whoever obtains this pearl first will be the son-in-law of my Song Family!"
At this moment, the geniuses of the various sects who came to participate in the selection all looked at the giant tree with fervent gazes.
Apart from the "Dao Child" that the family and Sect focused on nurturing, if the other disciples could become the son-in-law of the Song Family, not only would they marry the Song Family's pearl, Song Jia, but they would also obtain endless wealth. That was like reaching the heavens in a single bound, saving decades of hard work.
"I'm willing to try!"
"Such a grand event, I naturally have to participate!"
One figure after another rushed up and flew towards the giant tree in front of them. In a moment, the entire banquet was more than half empty.
"Marrying the pearl of the Song Clan is my wish!"
The little fatty, Li Fugui, whose entire body was shining with golden light, threw away the flying sword that was picking his teeth and stood up, preparing to rush in the direction of the giant tree.
"Little Uncle-Master, you already have three hundred Dao companions. Isn't it a little inappropriate for you to participate in the Song family's son-in-law selection ceremony?"
The golden-armored man beside Li Fugui had a helpless expression on his face. He could only remind Li Fugui.
"Eh? This … "
Li Fugui blinked his beady eyes and said innocently, "I can't participate because I have a Dao companion? The Song family didn't say that, did they? Since he didn't say that it's impossible, then it's definitely not a problem! "
Waving his hand, Little Fatty released his flying sword and flew towards the giant tree.
Only the golden-armored man was left standing there with a blank look on his face. "This is a son-in-law selection ceremony! If one had a Dao companion, they couldn't participate. This was common sense, right? Is there a need for someone else to explain it? "
"I … will go too!"
Wang Tengfei, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly rose to his feet. Without looking back, he shot toward the giant tree.
As soon as Wang Tengfei rose to his feet, the Wang Clan leader let out a long sigh and remained silent for a long time.
Off to the side, the faces of the Violet Fate Sect disciples were grim.
You, Wang Tengfei, were clearly engaged to Chu Yuyan of the Violet Fate Sect, but now you're going to participate in the Song Clan's son-in-law selection ceremony? What is the meaning of this?
"This way … it's all right!"
Elder Wu Dingqiu of the Violet Fate Sect raised his wine goblet and drained it in one gulp. He let out a long sigh.
"Junior Brother, why aren't you going?"
Chen Fan nudged Li Yu and gestured toward the giant tree.
"Why aren't you going, Elder Brother?"
Li Yu turned to look at Chen Fan with a smile.
"I …."
Chen Fan's face reddened, and he looked a bit embarrassed. "My heart belongs to someone else. Of course I don't want to participate."
"Eee? So Chen Fan has already fallen in love with Miss Shan Ling of the Solitary Sword Sect? "
Li Yu nodded inwardly.
Shan Ling was the source of all of Chen Fan's tragedies.
She was a stone from an Immortal mountain. She fell into the mortal world and took human form. She was Shan Ling. She had a body close to that of an Immortal, and the Solitary Sword Sect had high hopes for her. Naturally, they wouldn't allow her to develop mortal feelings.
When their relationship was exposed, they eloped and were pursued by the Solitary Sword Sect.
In the eyes of the Solitary Sword Sect, Chen Fan wasn't important. Shan Ling was. In order to sever Shan Ling's mortal ties, the Solitary Sword Sect decided to kill Chen Fan and sever her mortal heart.
However … in order to save Chen Fan, Shan Ling sacrificed her own life force and transformed into an enormous stone. Chen Fan's heart was as cold as death. He stood guard by the stone all day, not even half a step away.
Then … in order to deal with Chen Fan, Allheaven used the resurrection of Shan Ling as bait to deceive both Chen Fan and Chen Fan. In the end, Chen Fan died a painful death by Meng Hao's sword.
"People like Chen Fan shouldn't have been forced to such a state."
Li Yu sighed and turned to Chen Fan. "Elder Brother, you can use the jade slip I gave you at a critical moment. Don't lose it."
"Mm, I know."
Chen Fan nodded.
"Junior Brother Meng, you should attend the Son-In-Law Selection Ceremony."
Li Yu turned to look at Meng Hao with a strange smile on his face.
"Brother Li … you can go screw other people over! Don't screw me over, okay? "
Meng Hao turned to look at Xu Qing. Seeing that she wasn't angry, he let out a sigh of relief.
"The Shadow of the World Tree is full of Spirit Qi. It can help your cultivation base improve greatly. Besides, you don't really need to take first place! You're just taking the opportunity to cultivate. What's wrong with that? "
Li Yu was still trying to incite Meng Hao.
"No! No! Absolutely not! "
Meng Hao shook his head. Going on a blind date with someone else in front of his girlfriend, wasn't that courting death?
"Go! I'm just taking the opportunity to cultivate. This is a rare opportunity. Go! "
Xu Qing smiled and nodded at Meng Hao.
"I'm not going! This Young Master has never had any other woman in his life. Other than the one in my heart, other women are like dirt to me. I'm definitely not going! "
Meng Hao wasn't a fool. How could he waver at this time? He had to hold on to the green mountain and not relax. He had to resolutely express his stance and would not yield even if he died!
"Go! The World Tree Spirit Qi is hard to come by. If I wasn't a girl and couldn't participate, I would want to climb the World Tree and absorb the World Tree Spirit Qi. "
Xu Qing looked up at Meng Hao and smiled sweetly. "You and I know each other, and our hearts will never change. Why should we care about such minor details?"
"I …"
Meng Hao was touched. With a wife like this, what more could a man ask for?
"Okay! I'll go climb the World Tree and absorb the World Tree Spirit Qi. Don't worry, I won't take that pearl. "
Meng Hao nodded to Xu Qing, then turned and sped off in the direction of the World Tree.
"Hehe, Meng Hao went to wait for the World Tree. It's time to scam people! "
Li Yu stood up with a smile on his face and cupped his hands towards the Song Family Patriarch and the other seniors. "Seniors, this is an unprecedentedly grand occasion for the Prodigy Competition. Junior has a suggestion. In such a grand occasion, why don't we all gamble and see which genius can stand out? What do you think? "
"Gambling, is it? That's right, that's how it should be! "
The Song Family Patriarch smiled and nodded, "Everyone, we've agreed to this young man's request. Let's gamble on the matter of the various geniuses climbing the World Tree.
"Haha! Good! Good! "
All the seniors and experts took out spirit pills and treasures as the stakes and began … to gamble.
"Nine out of ten losses! No wonder I scammed you! "
Li Yu laughed in his heart. He bowed and sat down.
He only needed to give them a hint and let them jump into the pit themselves.
