After I left the sect, the entire sect knelt down and begged for forgiveness.

Chapter 238 You want to drag me into the abyss and disrupt my Dao heart? Do you deserve it?
Even if the elders wanted to arrange a marriage, it was no longer possible.

Who would randomly pair up two people who have a history of enmity? That's not just randomly matchmaking, it's putting enemies together, which is extremely immoral.

"So that's how it is." Rong Ce still smiled kindly, but when he looked at the other elder of the Mo family, whose expression was awkward yet forced a smile, he found it a little strange.

The elder wasn't stupid; she could tell that her grandson liked the girl, but she had no feelings for Yu'er and was afraid that the elders would try to match them up, so she said that.

Yu'er has good talent and a good background. Even though she is the personal disciple of Venerable Duan Yi, she is more than a match for her. If even Yu'er doesn't think much of her, does she really think she can be a match for a god?

For the sake of the Mo family's reputation, he decided to deflate this girl's arrogance!
However, he was an elder, and given the generational gap, it wouldn't be good for his reputation if he were to spread the word himself. After a moment's thought, he made his decision.

He first praised the girl for her intelligence and talent, and then asked her to demonstrate her skills to the younger members of the clan.

Lin Yan forced a smile, feeling her lips were stiff. When she heard Elder Mo ask her to spar with the younger generation of the Mo family, her first instinct was to refuse.

But then he said there was a prize for sparring, and she was tempted. It wasn't that she wanted to make a quick buck, but rather that sparring with others would allow them to improve together.

The meeting was scheduled for two days later, at which time the elder would personally bring his disciples to visit.

Hearing that it would be two days later, she regretted agreeing to the sparring match! She had planned to return to her sect after the banquet, but now she had to stay in Mo City for two more days.

Words spoken are like water spilled; they cannot be taken back.

After the banquet, upon returning to the sect's residence, Elder Rong Ce kept her behind for a private talk.

"Are you confident about the sparring match in two days?" Rong Ce asked with his usual kind expression.

There are always mountains beyond mountains and people beyond people, so she didn't dare to speak too confidently and replied, "I'm confident, but not much."

"Just do your best, there's no need to put so much pressure on yourself."

"I understand," she replied respectfully.

"Go back and rest."

Lin Yan bowed and then turned and left without stopping.

Elder Rong Ce looked very kind, but when talking to him, I felt a strange pressure, as if he could see right through me.

Two days later.

Elder Mo was arriving with several disciples when she saw Mo Yu among them, and her eyes turned cold.

She had little patience for cultivators who couldn't understand human speech.

Feelings of rejection and disgust gradually took over, but thankfully she managed to suppress them with reason, otherwise she would have given them a hard time in front of everyone.

The disgust she felt for Mo Yu was obvious in her eyes. She had never shown such strong and direct disgust in front of others before.

But he looked at her with a hurt expression, as if she were the one who was being unreasonable.

Lin Yan wondered if he should also participate in the sparring. If he accidentally killed someone during the sparring, even the elders of the Mo family wouldn't be able to do anything about it, right?
Thinking this, she asked, "Who wants to go first?"

The Mo family disciples were eager to try, but none of them spoke. Instead, they looked at Mo Yu.

It seems he held a very important position and influence among the disciples of the Mohist school.

"I'll go first. Please enlighten me, Fairy," Mo Yu said.

"It's just a friendly exchange, not a matter of instruction!" she said coldly, walking towards the magic weapon shelf in front of the dueling platform.

The rules for the sparring were the same as the individual duels in the Immortal Sect Grand Competition, requiring the use of practice magic weapons. However, the sect's outpost didn't have such a large arsenal; the shelves only displayed third-grade magic weapons. It didn't matter to Lin Yan what magic weapon she chose; it was just a vessel for her formation. She casually picked up a sword and went onto the stage.

Once on stage, she didn't even want to follow the procedures. She said, "Please enlighten me," and just waited for the referee to call "start."

No sooner had the referee finished speaking than she attacked with her sword, the murderous intent she unleashed suggesting it was no mere sparring.

Seeing his hurt expression made her feel disgusted!

Knowing that the other party might use her to attain enlightenment, she wanted to kill them even more!
What a scoundrel! He doesn't cultivate his own mindset; he finds enlightenment in the pain of unrequited love. With such a rotten heart, he shouldn't be cultivating immortality; he should just become a tool for procreation and raise the next generation!

Lin Yan's moves were ruthless, each one aimed at killing him. He was, after all, a talented disciple of the Mo family, and possessed considerable strength, managing to deflect each of her attacks.

She could even put on a hurt expression and say, "Do you hate me that much? So much that you want to kill me? I don't know what I did wrong to make you feel this way..."

"Clearly...clearly I love you so much..."

The arena is surrounded by a protective barrier that can block the force generated by the fight and prevent spectators from being injured.

However, the barrier could not block out sound. The people below the stage could hear Mo Yu's words clearly and all showed surprise.

It seems there's some kind of love story between the two, but with their elders present, they can't discuss it.

Lin Yan's expression turned even colder upon hearing what the other person said!

The fierce attack just now was to conceal her formation-setting movements, so that the opponent would not realize that she was in a formation. She summoned her magic sword, and the illusion formation was completed.

Let him unleash his dark side and show her what his so-called love is all about!
The dummy in the formation had already been defeated, and Mo Yu helped the person up and walked off the stage together.

The dummy in the contest lost to him and fell in love with him, accepting his confession. She was taken back to Mo Yu's villa and became his virtuous wife, spending her days not cultivating, but washing her hands and cooking for him.

That so-called sweetness was nothing more than constant flirting, being forced to endure his pleasure, and finally dying for him with tears in her eyes, fulfilling his destiny.

Looking at the images projected into the Inquiry Realm, Lin Yan felt utterly disgusted.

He hasn't realized he's in a hallucinatory array yet, which means it's truly his deepest desire, and not something he's been manipulated into having such associations.

She didn't want to look at the disgusting scene anymore, so while he was immersed in his hallucination, she stabbed him with a sword, piercing him through.

He was still immersed in the fantasy of reaching the pinnacle when he was poked and his consciousness returned to reality.

"You despicable creature, you even want to drag me into the abyss and disrupt my Dao heart, how laughable!"

She drew her sword, intending to stab again, but the protective barrier opened, and a burst of spiritual energy struck her.

The spiritual energy was unleashed by a Nascent Soul cultivator, aimed at killing her; she couldn't dodge it.

Fortunately, she had a life-saving artifact. When the force struck her, the substitute doll blocked it for her, and she was randomly teleported elsewhere.

The elder of the Mo family flew onto the arena, fed his grandson a pill, and used his spiritual power to heal him.

Seeing that his grandson's life had stabilized, he wanted to take him back to the Mo family for treatment immediately.

Seeing this, Rong Ce stopped the elder of the Mo family from taking Mo Yu away!

"Halt! What was the meaning of your act of taking the life of Venerable Duan Yi's beloved disciple just now?"

The elder of the Mo family was furious. He had originally brought people over to learn from each other and exchange skills, but who would have thought that the girl would want to kill Yu'er!
Now that Yu'er's life is in danger, Elder Rong is still blocking him here. Does he want to delay so that Yu'er cannot receive effective treatment?
