Chapter 293 Live Broadcast of National Fortune: The Male Lead's Fiancée Who Was Rejected VS. Hu
Su Jinyue didn't expect Senior Spirit Serpent to be so excited after learning about the inheritance. She wondered if Senior Spirit Serpent knew Qing Daozi.
After careful consideration, Su Jinyue realized that, based on what she knew about the origins of the trial grounds, only the Heavenly Dao Sect, where Qing Daozi was located, possessed the ability to leave behind a legacy, and the legacy left by the Heavenly Dao Sect was only Qing Daozi's.
The result is obvious: if Senior Spirit Serpent knows the person who set up the inheritance, it can only be Qing Daozi.
Seeing the serpent's anxious appearance, it didn't seem like an enemy...
Su Jinyue tentatively replied, "I received Qing Daozi's inheritance in the Trial Grounds."
"Really?! Where is Senior Seido? Didn't he come out with you?"
"..." Seeing Senior Spirit Serpent looking around, Su Jinyue was speechless for a moment.
"When I entered the land of inheritance, I did not see Senior Qingdaozi."
Su Jinyue offered a tactful explanation, which wasn't entirely wrong. When she entered the inheritance grounds, Qing Daozi was indeed not there. As for whether he was alive or dead, Su Jinyue felt that he was most likely no longer there.
But there's no need to tell Senior Spirit Serpent about this guess.
The serpent paused for a moment, seemingly lost in memories, before asking again.
"What about Brother Jiaolong? Haven't we seen him either?"
"...The dragon has been seen. But only bones remain in the place of inheritance; the dragon's soul has dissipated."
The serpent seemed unable to accept it and staggered back two steps. After a moment of slumber, it slowly accepted reality.
"I was asking for too much. So many years have passed, I should have thought of this long ago."
It seems that Senior Spirit Serpent and Qing Daozi really know the Flood Dragon, and their relationship is quite close.
Since Su Jinyue and Chen Zhengyuan were not directly involved, they had no way to comfort each other and could only silently wait for the other to feel better.
Fortunately, Senior Spirit Serpent did not dwell too much on his past memories and quickly came back to his senses, talking with Su Jinyue.
However, the way he looked at Su Jinyue now was filled with affection and kindness.
"Now that you have received the inheritance from Senior Qingdaozi, you can be considered one of us."
When I was just a little snake, I was fortunate enough to be saved by Senior Qingdaozi, which allowed me to survive after the destruction of the Heavenly Dao.
Now that you are my junior, please feel free to ask if there's anything I can help you with in this trial grounds.
Su Jinyue's eyes lit up; she hadn't expected to gain this much!
Su Jinyue didn't care about being modest; she just wanted to get as many benefits as possible.
"Senior Spirit Serpent, we have been chosen to come to this trial ground to complete our mission. The stronger we are, the more hope we have of surviving."
My teammates and I came here hoping to find some rare and precious materials to improve our strength.
We never expected that we would have such a connection with Senior Spirit Serpent. We have been in the Trial Grounds for more than a month now, but we know very little about the Trial Grounds.
"Senior Spirit Serpent, could you tell us about the Trial Grounds? How can we best complete the Trial Grounds missions and return to our homeland?"
Senior Spirit Serpent frowned, and thinking about their identities, he couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.
"Oh dear, this is troublesome..."
After listening to Senior Spirit Serpent's next words, Su Jinyue learned about the darkness of the Trial Grounds and the live broadcast of the nation's destiny.
It turns out that countless groups of mission takers from different worlds have entered the Trial Grounds, but without exception, none of them have ever won and all have ultimately failed.
It's not because these mission takers are too weak, but because the Trial Grounds are too despicable.
The National Fortune livestream will release tasks for each stage, which participants will then complete. However, if too many people survive a task, the tasks for the next stage will be deliberately made more difficult.
Even more remarkably, whenever the mission takers fought to the very end and were on the verge of victory, an unfathomable figure in black would appear in the trial grounds and kill them one by one.
Even the Spirit Serpent senior didn't understand. Since all the mission takers who entered the Trial Grounds would eventually die, what was the point of them coming in?
Senior Spirit Serpent was unaware, but Su Jinyue understood that this wasn't the first time the person behind the scenes had manipulated the Heavenly Dao of Blue Star.
Each batch of mission takers represents a different world. In many of these worlds, the Heavenly Dao has been manipulated by those behind the scenes, and the worlds in which the mission takers reside have already been destroyed.
At first, Senior Spirit Serpent would save any mission takers she found agreeable, but those she saved would eventually die, so she stopped getting involved.
Senior Spirit Serpent is powerful, and mission takers generally don't bother her. She doesn't get involved in these matters, and the Trial Grounds don't pursue her existence.
So she survived in the trial grounds, guarding this cave, and had quite a few descendants. Apart from not being able to get out, everything else was alright.
Senior Spirit Serpent was also well aware of her own limitations; her abilities were no match for the people behind the scenes in the Trial Grounds, so she simply gave up and gave up.
Unlike Qing Daozi and Senior Jiaolong, she was not so obsessed with restoring the Heavenly Dao world before it existed. After all, the Heavenly Dao was destroyed as soon as she gained sentience, and most of her memories were in this trial ground.
Now, Senior Spirit Serpent is very worried about Su Jinyue. If Su Jinyue dies in the end, wouldn't Senior Qingdaozi's legacy be lost?
"What can we do? I can't get out either. All mission takers will eventually die. It's alright if you die, but the place where Senior Qing Daozi passed on his legacy has been destroyed. What will happen to Senior Qing Daozi's legacy?"
Su Jinyue's lips twitched. Senior Spirit Serpent was quite outspoken. So her life and death didn't matter; Qing Daozi's inheritance was the most important thing.
Although Su Jinyue understood that she was valued by Senior Spirit Serpent because of her inheritance, Senior Spirit Serpent didn't need to make it so clear.
Senior Spirit Serpent seemed to realize that his words were somewhat inappropriate, and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
Su Jinyue didn't mind. She had figured it out. Senior Spirit Serpent had just gained sentience in the Trial Grounds and had never interacted with anyone before, so he was rather naive.
Senior Spirit Serpent is quite tolerant of those who undertake missions. In her previous life, Sun Siqi and her group stole the Millennium Spirit Milk, which angered her.
She shouldn't have been the one to make the final move. If it had been Senior Spirit Serpent, Sun Siqi and the others would have had no chance of surviving.
It is estimated that Senior Spirit Serpent sent his disciples and grand-disciples to teach them a lesson because the Thousand-Year Spirit Milk was stolen. As a result, Chen Zhengyuan, who sacrificed himself, died here.
“Senior Spirit Serpent, I have received the inheritance of Senior Qing Daozi and learned some secrets of the Trial Grounds. My companions and I are planning to explore the formations of the Trial Grounds.”
We encountered Senior Spirit Serpent along the way. I wonder if there's anything special about the trial grounds that we should be particularly careful about?
