After all, I was just here to deliver a letter, so why is there a test and a Trial of the Heart? What exactly happened, and what does my master really want to do?
Ye Tianfan said to Wen Dali, "Explain it clearly, otherwise, I won't go to the Dali Sect!"
Wen Dali said helplessly, "Alright, let explain it clearly to you then!"
Upon hearing that Wen Dali was going to explain things clearly, Ye Tianfan quickly sat up straight, eager to find out what had happened and what exactly was the dubious connection between his master and the Dali Sect.
Of course, using the word 'dubious' might be a bit excessive, but Ye Tianfan was certain that he had been played by his master, Tian Chu Zhenren; otherwise, he wouldn't have ended up in this situation!
"First of all! When we left your Taichu Sect, Tian Chu Zhenren found Brother Bang Dali and asked him a favor!" Wen Dali began.
When Ye Tianfan heard Wen Dali call Bang Dali "Brother Bang Dali," he felt a deep chill, as the idea of a flirty death Barbie shyly calling out to another muscular guy as "Brother Bang Dali" was profoundly unsettling!
However, Ye Tianfan didn't interrupt Wen Dali and let her continue.
"Then your master, Tian Chu Zhenren, wanted to request a spot for the Trial of the Heart for you to undertake." Wen Dali said, "But the Trial of the Heart isn't sothing you can just go through; only those with pure hearts, who don't kill indiscriminately, can erge from the Trial of the Heart. Moreover, those who do erge from it will find their abilities greatly enhanced, with a significant enhancent in their state of mind as well."
After hearing this, Ye Tianfan nodded. It made sense now; the Trial of the Heart was not sothing to be taken lightly. From the na alone, it was clearly a trial for one's heart, and harboring murderous intent might lead one deeper into it, even making one more inclined towards slaughter due to the trial.
"Actually, testing you here was my idea. If you went to the Dali Sect and then took the test, and failed, wouldn't it be a wasted trip? And it would be quite embarrassing!" Wen Dali explained.
Despite knowing that what Wen Dali said made sense, Ye Tianfan felt uncomfortable, as it was just like telling him, "If you can't even pass the test, just get lost!"
There's no need to waste ti; everyone's ti is precious.
The most important thing is, from start to finish, no one ever asked Ye Tianfan if he needed to undergo the Trial of the Heart, nor did anyone tell him what to prepare. They just directly set him up for a test!
This made Ye Tianfan a bit agitated. Although he knew his master had good intentions for him and cared about him, having decisions made for him without notification was quite frustrating.
But since things had already co to this, what else could he do? Even though he had passed the test, it annoyed him greatly. Nevertheless, since his master had secured this opportunity for him, Ye Tianfan decided not to let his master's goodwill go to waste and resolved to undertake the Trial of the Heart.
"Since I've passed the test, when shall we proceed with the Trial of the Heart?" Ye Tianfan asked.
"After you finish your al, we'll head towards the Dali Sect. During the journey, I'll also brief you on the things to watch out for during the Trial of the Heart," Wen Dali said.
"Alright!" Ye Tianfan replied, nodding, and resud eating with his chopsticks, contemplating that it seed he wouldn't be able to rest today and would have to keep traveling.
Then Ye Tianfan saw Wen Dali watching him eat and kindly asked, "Would you like to have so?"
Wen Dali imdiately agreed, called a waiter over, and ordered ten portions of the sa dishes Ye Tianfan had just ordered.
Upon hearing the quantity, Ye Tianfan couldn't help but click his tongue, but then seeing Wen Dali's build, it made sense—after all, with such a strong physique, eating a lot was necessary to maintain his imposing aura.
Ye Tianfan began eating his share while waiting for Wen Dali's portions to be served.
However, Ye Tianfan was curious about how Wen Dali knew he would definitely stop at Demon Slaying Town? If he hadn't stopped in Demon Slaying Town, wouldn't Wen Dali's entire setup have been in vain?
Since Wen Dali had been playing this role, setting up everything several days before Ye Tianfan's arrival in Demon Slaying Town, if Ye Tianfan had just bypassed it, Wen Dali would have been left waiting in vain.
But Wen Dali laughed and said, "Starting from your Taichu Sect on the way to the Dali Sect, we have arrangents in all the towns."
"In all the towns? Didn't you say this was your idea and Bang Dali doesn't know?" Ye Tianfan asked in surprise.
"Yes, Bang Dali indeed doesn't know. You might not be aware, but I'm the captain of the Won's Strong Team at the Dali Sect. This setup was executed by our team without informing Bang Dali. From Taichu Sect to our Dali Sect, we've stationed people in almost every town along the way, each playing a role to test you! But unexpectedly, you stopped in the very first town, and I caught you." Wen Dali explained.
Ye Tianfan sighed upon hearing this. At this point, he didn't know whether to be angry or how to feel. This Wen Dali had gone so far as to set up tests in every town for him; from Ye Tianfan's knowledge, there were at least eighty to a hundred towns between the Taichu Sect and the Dali Sect, not to ntion several villages!
If he hadn't stopped in the towns and ended up in a village, wouldn't all their efforts have been in vain?
Ye Tianfan took a deep breath, cald his emotions, put down the chopsticks, and looked at Wen Dali indulging in food, falling silent.
Regardless, he had passed the test. Even though he didn't like this kind of test, it was ultimately to elevate his abilities. Ye Tianfan decided to tolerate it since he hadn't really suffered any loss!
