Chapter 6097 Test Before Bed
“Young Master Chen is quite straightforward.” She raised her hand and slowly removed her veil.
Behind the veil was a face of unmatched beauty.
Her eyebrows were like distant mountains shrouded in mist, her eyes were like autumn water rippling on the surface, her nose was straight and elegant, and her lips were like cherry blossoms.
Her skin was as white as jade, and under the soft light inside the palanquin, her skin shimmered with a faint glow.
She is indeed very beautiful.
This is not a glamorous kind of beauty, but rather a quiet and gentle kind of beauty, like an orchid secluded in a valley, or a plum blossom in the snow.
David glanced at him and nodded: “It’s okay, not a loss.”
Wu Lingyun’s face turned pale.
What does “okay” mean?
What does “not missing an opportunity” mean?
Chen Wanqing’s appearance is among the most beautiful in Yunxian City, but according to David, she is just “ordinary”.
What made him even more angry was that Chen Wanqing actually took off her veil!
He had just had a long conversation with Chen Wanqing, and the woman had always covered her face with a thin veil, never revealing her true appearance.
With just one sentence from David, he immediately let go!
This different treatment further fueled Wu Lingyun’s burning jealousy.
He took a deep breath, suppressed his displeasure, and said coldly, “Young Master Chen, the competition isn’t over yet, how can you be so sure that Miss Chen will be your dual cultivation partner?”
David leaned against the wall of the stretcher and said calmly, “I’m not sure. But we have to check the goods first. What if we win but are dissatisfied? Wouldn’t that be a waste?”
“You!”
Wu Lingyun’s face turned red. “How dare you! Is Miss Chen the kind of ‘thing’ you’re talking about?”
Chen Wanqing waved her hand, signaling that Wu Lingyun didn’t need to be angry.
He looked at David, a hint of curiosity in his eyes: “Young Master Chen is quite confident. Are you that confident that you can defeat Young Master Wu?”
David didn’t answer, but a faint smile appeared on his lips.
That smile contained a hint of amusement and a hint of disgust, as if to say: Him? He doesn’t even deserve it?
When Wu Lingyun saw that smile, he was furious. He clenched his fists so tightly that his nails nearly dug into his flesh, barely able to contain his anger.
The stretcher continued its journey.
After a few more moments of the incense burning, the palanquin finally stopped.
“Miss, we have arrived.” A servant’s voice was heard from outside the palanquin.
The three of them got off the stretcher and were greeted by a large, magnificent house.
The gate was bright red, with copper nails and rings, and a plaque hung above the doorway with two large letters reading “Chen Mansion”.
Two rows of guards stood at the entrance, each with a calm and composed aura, all of them at least at the sixth rank of the Upper Immortal Realm.
Chen Wanqing led the two into the mansion, passed through several courtyards, and headed to a secluded courtyard.
In the middle of the courtyard, there was a crystal bed about ten feet long.
The crystal bed was crystal clear, emitting a faint, cold light. Intricate patterns were engraved on the surface of the bed, with a faint spiritual light flowing around it; it was clearly no ordinary object.
Chen Wanqing stopped and turned to the two of them.
“This is the second test.”
Wu Lingyun frowned slightly: “May I ask, Miss Chen, what is the purpose of this test?”
Chen Wanqing said slowly, “Control yourself.”
He pointed to the crystal bed: “This bed is called the Tranquilizing Bed. Once you lie on it, you will be drawn into an illusion by a series of illusions.”
In this illusion, you will experience the deepest fear in the world, the nightmare that everyone fears.
He paused for a moment, then continued, “All you have to do is remain steadfast and unwavering within this illusion. During this time, you must not use any divine powers; if you do, you will fail.”
“I’ll be watching from the sidelines to see if you guys can stay focused.”
David looked at the crystal bed and suddenly said, “We can’t use our immortal powers. We lie on it, and Miss Chen can watch us from the side?”
Chen Wanqing nodded: “Exactly.”
David glanced at her thoughtfully, then suddenly said, “Miss Chen, are you trying to test the two of us to see who is better in bed?”
Chen Wanqing was silent for a moment, then her cheeks turned red.
“What nonsense are you talking about?!”
Angrily, he glared at David. “This is a test of self-control! No… that’s not what I meant!”
David shrugged: “Okay, okay, whatever you want.”
Chen Wanqing was furious.
Wu Lingyun watched from the sidelines, gritting his teeth. How dare David bully Chen Wanqing like that!
But Chen Wanqing only blushed and wasn’t really angry, which made him feel even worse.
He snorted coldly: “Young Master Chen, stop talking nonsense. Since this is a test, then I, Wu, will go first.”
After saying that, he walked over to the crystal bed, turned over, and lay down on it.
Chen Wanqing calmed herself down and walked to the bedside.
He raised his right hand, a faint blue light emitting from his palm, and waved it gently.
Blue light enveloped Wu Lingyun’s entire body.
Wu Lingyun’s body stiffened slightly, then he closed his eyes.
A moment later, his brows furrowed, and a pained expression appeared on his face.
David stood aside, watching with interest.
He could feel that the energy array above the crystal bed was operating, drawing Wu Lingyun’s soul into a certain illusion.
The blue light in Chen Wanqing’s palm may be an observation of her reaction in the illusion.
Wu Lingyun’s body began to tremble slightly.
His breathing became rapid, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
His hands gripped the edge of the bed tightly, his knuckles turning white.
“No…don’t…”
He muttered to himself, his voice filled with fear, “Don’t come any closer…”
He struggled violently, as if fighting something terrible.
Chen Wanqing frowned slightly, but did not stop.
Wu Lingyun’s struggles grew more intense; his body writhed on the bed, and he let out incoherent moans.
Suddenly, he groaned, and his body reacted strangely, a reaction that was clearly visible under his robe.
Chen Wanqing’s expression changed, and she suddenly withdrew her hand.
As the blue light disappeared, Wu Lingyun suddenly opened his eyes, gasping for breath.
His clothes were soaked with sweat, his face was as pale as paper, and his eyes still showed fear and confusion.
“Young Master Wu.”
Chen Wanqing’s voice was cold. “You have failed.”
Wu Lingyun was shocked, then realized what had happened.
Her face changed from pale to red, then from red to green, her eyes filled with shame, anger, and hatred.
“Miss Chen, I…”
“No need to say more.”
Chen Wanqing interrupted him, her tone cold, “In that illusion, you were filled with fear, your mind was in chaos, and your body reacted. This shows a lack of self-control. Young Master Wu, please return.”
Wu Lingyun opened his mouth, but didn’t know what to say.
He got up from the bed, glared at David, then stepped aside.
But he didn’t go.
He also wanted to see what David could do.
