Berserk God of War

Chapter 1785: The Outsider Son-in-Law and Nine Challenges

Sure enough, Liu Yeduo finally withdrew her surprised expression, then coldly spoke, "Sikong, how could our Willow Leaf Saint Manor have a son-in-law with an outside surname like you?"

Her voice turned slightly icy, as if interrogating Sikong Jing...

But in fact, Liu Duoye was not interrogating; she just found it very strange.

Su Yue Immortal clearly said that the current Willow Leaf Saint Manor has a rule against marrying outsiders, yet this young man with the surname Sikong claimed to be a son-in-law of the Willow Leaf Saint Manor, which was very odd.

If it wasn’t Su Yue Immortal deceiving her, then it was the young man in black in front of her who was lying.

And Liu Duoye was more inclined to trust Su Yue Immortal...

So, the young man in black here was likely an enemy of the Willow Leaf Saint Manor, and a terrifying one at that, trying to deceive something from her Mind Spirit Shadow, hence her tone became extremely severe.

To this question, Sikong Jing slowly raised his head...

He slightly curled his lips and replied in a low voice, "The Willow Leaf Saint Manor has always been shameless, and they also like to bully the weak and fear the strong. So, when they see huge benefits, of course, an outsider son-in-law would appear."

To say such a thing in front of the ancestor of the Willow Leaf Saint Manor, if someone was around, they would surely think he was courting death.

But Sikong Jing was not afraid at all, he was merely stating a fact.

Moreover, he now wanted to know what Liu Duoye had done to Su Yue Immortal. Hopefully, it wasn’t like the Blood Charm Demon Cat’s idea of possessing Hua Meixi back then.

If that were the case, Sikong Jing would certainly blast this Mind Spirit Shadow away, regardless if it was the Willow Leaf Ancestor or not.

His words were enough to judge Liu Duoye’s character.

However, as Sikong Jing was secretly preparing to face any situation, Liu Duoye was stunned, and then laughed angrily, "Damn it, what a bunch of unfilial descendants, losing all my face."

Hearing this, Sikong Jing was dumbfounded, staring at Liu Duoye’s Mind Spirit Shadow.

"They set rules under my name that forbid marrying outsiders, yet kowtow when they meet someone formidable, it’s utterly preposterous." Liu Duoye continued to curse.

She then turned to the stunned Sikong Jing and asked, "You’ve already observed the Willow Leaf Holy Wall, why are you still looking for Su Yue Xian? She should be completely unimportant to you now, right?"

To Liu Duoye, Sikong Jing becoming a son-in-law of the Willow Leaf Saint Manor was for the secrets on the Willow Leaf Holy Wall.

Evidently, in the just-concluded tests and blockades, Sikong Jing had thoroughly comprehended the Willow Leaf Holy Wall, so he should not risk entering her tomb for Su Yue Immortal anymore.

Liu Duoye knew very well about Su Yue Immortal’s situation in the Willow Leaf Saint Manor.

Of course, Liu Duoye wouldn’t directly associate Sikong Jing as Su Yue Immortal’s brother-in-law, thinking he was someone else’s son-in-law.

With that, Sikong Jing quickly reacted, intending to answer that he was Su Yue Immortal’s brother-in-law.

Su Yue Immortal was indeed his family, so of course, she was important.

Yet before Sikong Jing could speak, Liu Duoye interjected immediately...

"I understand now, you’re borrowing the pretext of rescuing Su Yue Xian to achieve your goal of entering my tomb in order to gain more about the Willow Leaf Holy Wall."

"You want to enter the interior of the Willow Leaf Holy Wall and obtain the biggest secret inside, am I right?"

With those words, Sikong Jing was astonished; this ancestor of the Willow Leaf Saint Manor during the Holy Martial Stage truly had a wild imagination.

Nonetheless, Sikong Jing was relieved at this point.

From Liu Duoye’s words, it was clear she wasn’t as unscrupulous and profit-driven as Ye Wushen and others, as she even cursed her descendants. Hence saving Su Yue Immortal would certainly not be for possession-related matters.

She even affectionately called Su Yue Immortal "Yue Xian," seemingly very fond of her.

Thinking of this, Sikong Jing prepared to answer and explain, "Liu Duoye Ancestor, I am Su Yue Immortal’s..."

But, once again, he didn’t finish... Hum!

Just as Sikong Jing was halfway through, the surrounding suddenly transformed with patterns of Jade Green, then those patterns turned into a large circular net, enveloping him.

In an instant, Sikong Jing seemed trapped inside a Jade Green sphere.

Then Liu Duoye coldly scolded, "After being exposed by me, you want to explain yourself? Explain my foot. Where’s that spirit of yours from before?"

Upon hearing this, Sikong Jing was again astonished.

I was just trying to test your nature, to see what you did to Su Yue Immortal, that’s all.

And now that I’ve confirmed you seem good to Su Yue Immortal, I naturally want to clarify, but as Sikong Jing tried to speak again, he found his voice was sealed, and Liu Duoye evidently didn’t want to listen anymore.

"Hmph, it’s not impossible to unearth the biggest secret of my Willow Leaf Saint Manor."

"It’s rare to meet a genius who has comprehended the Willow Leaf Holy Wall so thoroughly, naturally, you deserve a gift."

At this time, Liu Duoye continued coldly, her voice crashing into Sikong Jing’s ears trapped within the spherical net...

"The things engraved within the Willow Leaf Holy Wall nearly encompass all my essence and power."

"Yet, I still can’t enter the Holy Wall interior."

"However, I still left some of my puzzles which even I couldn’t solve before I died. If you can solve these puzzles in the future, you will certainly gain tremendous benefits from the Willow Leaf Holy Wall."

Liu Duoye meant: she had already engraved all she could on the Holy Wall, but there were some concepts that remained unsolvable, still at the puzzle stage, and hence couldn’t be further etched onto the Holy Wall.

Now, she was going to have Sikong Jing solve the riddles...

"You can start now, you must solve them all before my Mind Spirit Shadow dissipates, only then can you leave alive."

"If you can’t solve them, then you’ll become my burial accompaniment here."

"And I only have five hours left..."

With Liu Duoye’s series of words, Sikong Jing couldn’t help but twitch his mouth, utterly speechless at the scene.

The main issue was Liu Duoye not listening to his explanation, so his voice couldn’t be heard!

While he was speechless, the surrounding net-like sphere completely closed up, turning into a solid Jade Green sphere.

Liu Duoye’s voice then hit Sikong Jing’s ears again, "To gain benefits, a price must be paid, and there are a total of nine challenging puzzles. You only have five hours."

With that, Liu Duoye stopped speaking.

Soon after, an illusion formed, and the first puzzle appeared right before Sikong Jing.

Inside the Jade Green sphere, Sikong Jing bitterly smiled and said, "This ancestor of the Willow Leaf Saint Manor is truly a self-imagining woman, unwilling to even listen to one more word I say... oh well, I’d better solve the puzzle quickly!"

Thinking of this, Sikong Jing felt a surge of excitement and looked towards the first puzzle before him.
