Through Fat Bear's sensing spiritual device, Meng Wan discovered that Xue Wuya and the Demon Dao Saint Yao Heng were in the same place.
After a little thought, Meng Wan ordered the Fat Bear clone to rush towards the direction where Xue Wuya and Yao Heng were.
She herself hid her body, followed far behind, and secretly observed everything around her.
A day later, Fat Bear arrived at his destination - a tall altar.
The altar was surrounded by spiritual energy, and the light of the forbidden barrier could be vaguely seen flickering.
Xue Wuya was wearing a blood-red robe and standing with his hands behind his back.
Beside him, Yaoheng, Guiren, Lushao and other saints and quasi-saints, as well as some other cultivators were also present.
The atmosphere was a little tense, but all the saints restrained themselves and did not take action.
"Fat Bear, you're finally here!"
When Lingju saw Fat Bear, he immediately went up to him and said in a friendly tone, "We have been waiting for you for a long time."
Yaoheng was dressed in red, looking enchanting and charming. She leaned lazily against an ancient tree and spoke nonchalantly.
"The assessment is about to begin. If you don't come, we'll have to abandon you."
Fat Bear bowed to Yao Heng and said, "Sir, I am late. Please forgive me."
Yao Heng waved her hand casually, "It's okay, as long as we arrived in time."
Fat Bear chuckled and then stood side by side with the spirit horse.
Lingju glanced at him and asked in a low voice, "Why are you so late?"
Fat Bear said vaguely, "We were delayed on the way."
Upon hearing this, Lingju did not ask any further questions. He just whispered to Fat Bear about the possible assessment content that might appear after the Duobao Pavilion was opened.
Half an hour later, Meng Wan also arrived at the altar and reunited with Xue Wuya.
"Sir Saint, I finally found you."
Xue Wuya was the first to notice Meng Wan's rapidly increasing cultivation level, and his mood became complicated for a moment.
In less than two days, Meng Wan actually advanced to the sixth level of foundation building. Her cultivation speed was astonishing.
This made him both fearful and angry.
The chess piece that could be manipulated at will is now showing signs of slipping out of control.
"You're here."
Xue Wuya's tone was indifferent, as if he didn't care why she came so late, "Have you seen Qingling?"
Meng Wan lowered her eyebrows and looked submissive, with a hint of uneasiness in her tone.
"I have indeed seen Senior Sister Qingling. However, when I arrived, Senior Sister Qingling... had already... passed away."
She paused, secretly looked up to observe Xue Wuya's reaction, and seeing that his face was calm and it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry, she couldn't help but look nervous.
Xue Wuya asked coldly, "Let me ask you, at whose hands did Qing Ling die?"
Meng Wan lowered her head, her voice trembling.
"It was someone from the Gu Dao School who did it. I couldn't see who it was. I only managed to snatch Senior Sister Qingling's... corpse from that person."
Having said that, Meng Wan bit her lip, as if she found it difficult to speak.
"I originally planned to bring Senior Sister's corpse back to present to the Saint Son, but I was hunted down by the Gu cultivator who killed Senior Sister Qingling, and was in great danger.
In desperation, I refined my senior sister's corpse and broke through to the sixth level of foundation building, which is how I managed to escape."
Meng Wan fell to the ground, trembling. "I have overstepped my bounds. Please punish me, Holy Son! If you wish to drain all my blood and essence, I will have no complaints!"
Xue Wuya looked at Meng Wan crawling on the ground, and a complex light flashed in his eyes.
Qingling is dead, there is no need to pursue this matter any further.
It doesn't matter what the truth is.
The important thing is that he will still need Meng Wan in the next assessment.
"Get up," Xue Wuya said in a slightly slower tone, "Since you have already refined Qing Ling, it is your destiny. No need to think too much."
He paused, his gaze turning towards the altar. "The test will begin soon. Since you have reached the sixth level of Foundation Establishment, you must strive to pass the test at the Duobao Pavilion and win the treasure for me."
Hearing this, Meng Wan breathed a sigh of relief, quickly got up, and said with tears of gratitude.
"Thank you, Holy Son! Thank you for your grace! I will do my best to win the treasure for you!"
After expressing her loyalty, Meng Wan stood behind Xue Wuya sensibly, waiting quietly for the test to begin.
Soon, a dazzling golden light shot up from the altar into the sky, covering the entire square.
"The test begins!"
Someone in the crowd shouted, and the square suddenly became noisy.
In the center of the altar, a huge mask appeared out of thin air, half white and half black, emitting a strange light.
Below the mask, countless black and white masks are floating.
A faint voice rang out in everyone's ears, "Choose a mask you like and let it become your face."
The rules of the game instantly entered everyone's mind: the white mask represents the good side, and the black mask represents the evil side.
Those with a good face cannot kill people or attack actively, and only have the ability to save people.
If the person wearing the good face fails to help someone in need, the face will automatically transform into an evil face.
Those with evil faces can kill people but cannot save people.
After killing three people, he will automatically transform into a good face.
Each mask can only be transformed once.
"The assessment will last for one day. When the countdown ends, the person wearing the good mask will win."
The ethereal voice sounded again, "The assessment will officially begin after one stick of incense. Those who have not chosen a mask within one stick of incense will be deemed to have given up the assessment."
Hearing this, everyone looked at each other, and for a moment, no one dared to step forward to make a choice.
"Hmph, I'll go first!"
