"Is it her?"
Qian Duoduo glanced at Xian Lin'er and nodded heavily: "Yes."
"But she said she has no lover, and her previous lover was not you." said a calm voice.
Qian Duoduo paused and whispered, "You don't need to tell me. Lin'er and I have known each other for decades. I know everything about her and her thoughts very well."
Then, the calm voice asked, "In that case, are you willing to die for her? Even if you know she doesn't love you."
Qian Duoduo nodded slightly.
Ping Dan's voice seemed to be satisfied with this answer, and he asked Xian Lin'er again: "He said he was willing to die for you. Now if you don't love him, he will die. Will you choose to love him?"
Xian Lin'er gritted her teeth and said, "No."
When she said the word "can't", the bubbles beside her disappeared. Qian Duoduo was shocked when she heard it, but she showed an expression of calm acceptance.
The calm voice asked another question: "Now I give you two choices - one of you must die, you die, or he dies for you. Whoever dies, the other can survive."
"What would you choose?"
Ping Dan's questions became more and more outrageous, and every step forced people to make the most painful decision.
Xian Lin'er's expression gradually darkened. She turned to look at Qian Duoduo, then raised her head and glared at the sky, cursing, "Are you a psychopath?"
A whip made of golden light mercilessly lashed Xian Lin'er's back, leaving a bloody mark.
Xian Lin'er was startled by the long-lost feeling of pain.
Her martial spirit and soul power were restricted by a mysterious force, and she was injured. The golden whip contained a power that even she was afraid of, and it was probably not an empty promise that they would both die.
"If you speak rudely, you will be punished with a whip. If you do it again, you will be killed."
Xian Lin'er lowered her head and was silent for a while, then answered casually, "Then choose me to die."
In a calm voice, he asked, "Why? Don't you love him?"
Xian Lin'er said calmly, "To say that I really don't love Duoduo at all is probably not correct, I just don't want to admit it. After all, we have been husband and wife for so many years, and we have built up the Soul Guidance System step by step together. I have always remembered how good he has been to me."
"Even if we are not husband and wife, I am the dean of the Soul Guidance Department. I can't ask him, the vice-dean, to die for me."
Listening to Xian Lin'er's story, Ping Dan said with interest, "Then commit suicide."
A pale golden blade appeared in Xian Lin'er's hand, and her hands regained their mobility. Opening her mouth was like asking someone to commit suicide, but in Ping Dan's eyes, it seemed like nothing.
Xian Lin'er sneered and raised her head, saying viciously: "If you want to kill me, just kill me directly. Why bother with so many detours?"
……
"Companionship is the most long-lasting confession of love. In the first round, if you are sincere, you will pass."
A calm voice sounded in the ears of Xian Lin'er and Qian Duoduo at the same time. The bubbles enveloped the two of them again. They looked at each other, and there was a hint of emotion in their eyes that had never been there before.
The golden beam of light stopped in front of each person of Shrek in turn. Xian Lin'er and Qian Duoduo were the first to be questioned in a calm voice. After them, the rest of the Shrek staff also went through similar tests.
Dai Huabin, Zhu Lu, Wu Feng, Ning Tian, Bei Bei, Zhang Lexuan...
The first round of tests in this Xishan secret realm is to ask about your true feelings. As long as you face your emotions directly and answer truthfully according to your heart without hiding anything, you can pass the test. It is not difficult.
The golden light stopped in front of Tang Ya's position.
"Do you have a lover?"
Tang Ya had been waiting for a long time and didn't know what happened. When it was her turn, she looked a little confused.
She hesitated, then quickly replied, "Yes."
Tang Ya nodded affirmatively.
"Who is your lover?" asked a calm voice.
"Beibei." Tang Ya answered decisively without hesitation.
A calm voice said: "But there is another person who loves him, did you know?"
Tang Yatong shrank suddenly and asked hurriedly, "Who is it?"
The bubbles on Zhang Lexuan's body quickly turned transparent and were covered by the light curtain again.
Tang Yang was stunned for a moment. She clearly saw that there were both Tang Ya and Bei Bei in that bubble.
A calm voice said, "It's her."
Tang Ya gritted her teeth somewhat unwillingly. She had heard about the relationship between the senior sister Zhang Lexuan in the inner courtyard and Bei Bei a long time ago, and was not particularly surprised. But now seeing the two of them in the same bubble, she still felt a little uncomfortable.
"Why do you think you can be better than her? What qualifications do you have to love your lover more than she does?"
She spoke in a calm and leisurely voice. She actually did this on purpose because she wanted to see what expression Tang Ya would have when she saw the two of them together.
"Her beauty is no less than yours, her talent is better than yours, her cultivation is higher than yours, and her martial spirit is also more advanced than yours..."
"Stop talking." Tang Ya felt flustered and subconsciously wanted to stop the other party from continuing.
But Ping Dan ignored it and continued to list the differences between Tang Ya and Zhang Lexuan one by one: "Even the time they first met was longer than yours. That girl's feelings are no less than yours. Why do you think she chose you?"
Tang Ya said anxiously: "I believe Beibei."
"How do you know if he's lying to you when he says he loves you?"
Tang Ya was stunned for a moment, then she thought for a moment and answered firmly, "I believe in Bei Bei. He has always been by my side, helping me rebuild the Tang Sect."
"Words can deceive, but actions cannot."
His tone was full of trust in Beibei.
Ping Dan was silent for a moment, as if he was a little dissatisfied that this question did not hit Tang Ya, and continued to ask from a different angle: "Why do you think your feelings for him can compare to that girl? That girl is willing to die for him."
Tang Ya was not to be outdone: "I am willing to do so too."
The calm voice asked again: "Will he be better off with you?"
Tang Ya was about to refute, but was stunned.
This question is too tricky.
Yes, will Beibei have a better life with her?
No, being with her, Beibei would only face more pressure and trouble. Up to now, the revival of the Tang Sect has almost entirely relied on Beibei, and her role as the Sect Master is extremely limited.
Chapter 382 Who is your favorite person?
Tang Ya said nothing, her thoughts becoming increasingly confused.
She was reluctant to admit it, but the fact seemed to be true. It was really not a good choice for Beibei to be with her.
If he stayed in Shrek, Beibei would be the most likely successor to the Sea God Pavilion. With his talent and hard work, he would surely break through to become a Super Douluo, or even an Ultimate Douluo, and inherit the title of Dragon God Douluo.
While Tang Ya was sincerely happy for Bei Bei, she also felt a strong sense of crisis in her heart.
Because she also knew that not only had she failed to provide much help to Beibei, but she was also constantly dragging him down.
Many affairs of the Tang Clan are handled by Bei Bei. As the clan leader, she has average talent and has no say in many matters.
With her Blue Silver Grass martial soul, it was a miracle for her to break through to Soul King. It was unknown whether she would be able to break through to Soul Sage in the future. It was nothing but a pipe dream for her to want to revive the Tang Sect.
Tang Ya's expression began to look lonely. She was afraid that she would lose Bei Bei.
If Beibei suddenly changed her mind and abandoned her for the senior sister, she would not know how to blame Beibei.
No matter from which aspect, Zhang Lexuan is much better than himself.
After a long while, she could only take a deep breath, raised her head and said to Ping Dan: "Being with me may not be the best choice for Bei Bei, but as long as he is with him, I will do my best to make him not regret it."
She didn't have the confidence and strength to compete with Zhang Lexuan, all she could offer was her sincerity.
But many times, sincerity is not rare.
Ping Dan's voice was still unyielding: "What if that girl has the same attitude as you?"
Tang Ya's expression became more and more embarrassed. She didn't know why the owner of the mysterious voice was so persistent and kept undermining her already limited confidence and sense of security.
"I...I don't know."
Tang Ya finally couldn't hold it anymore and said bitterly.
"Then let's see who is more sincere."
A calm voice asked, "If I kill your lover now, are you willing to die for him?"
Tang Ya's delicate body trembled, and she asked in shock: "Why? Why did you do this?"
"If someone else dies for him, I will spare his life. Will you die for him? If you don't answer three times, the punishment will be death." The calm voice did not answer her question.
Tang Ya was about to speak but stopped.
At this moment, the bubbles surrounding Bei Bei and Zhang Le Xuan quietly moved to Tang Ya's side and became transparent.
Among them were Beibei and Zhang Lexuan, but Beibei actually closed his eyes and looked in pain.
"Beibei!"
Tang Ya shouted anxiously, trying to wake up Beibei.
But the two people in the light shield did not see Tang Ya outside, the light should be one-way.
Zhang Lexuan in the light shield is experiencing the same problem as Pingdan Shengsheng.
Zhang Lexuan said with a complicated expression: "I am willing to die for him."
The calm voice continued to ask: "If he were to be killed by me now, would you die for him?"
Zhang Lexuan's eyes moved slightly, she pursed her lips, looked at Beibei with some guilt, and then said firmly: "No."
"Why?" Ping Dan's voice was filled with a hint of surprise. "Don't you love him so much that you are willing to die for him? Do you know? The girl he loves is willing to die with him."
Tang Ya outside had not answered the question yet, but the calm voice had already been used through Tang Ya to stimulate Zhang Lexuan.
Zhang Lexuan murmured, "Is it Xiaoya? But I not only love Beibei, but also Shrek who raised me. The situation on the mainland is changing rapidly, and the future of Shrek needs us to take charge."
"We are here to end our lives arbitrarily because of our children's personal affairs. How can I face my teacher in the future when I am so irresponsible?"
Her tone gradually became decisive, and her calm voice was silent for a moment before she spoke:
"You show your true feelings, love selflessly, but you also keep your responsibility in mind. You pass the first test of sincerity. Extra reward, second round, no test required."
Zhang Lexuan's figure was separated from Beibei's light shield again, and her answer was clearly transmitted to Tang Ya's ears through the light shield.
