Chapter 172 The Second Trial

However, at some unknown time, the people in the town were infected with an unknown plague. Black scales grew on their faces, and their hands became webbed, as if they were fish that had come to life in the sea.

He suffered from vomiting and diarrhea, and became emaciated.

Dislikes sunlight.

They mostly operate at night, are bloodthirsty and like to eat raw meat, and die after seven days with blood flowing from all seven orifices.

This is a paradise for alchemists. Respected alchemists, please help this town restore its former peace...

Trial Rewards: None.

The remaining time for the Trial of Destiny is 4 years, 3 months, and 16 days.

Mission start countdown: 7 days.

The task content is very familiar, except for the addition of a task countdown.

The trial mission refreshed on the afternoon of the second day after Yu Xiaoya fell into a coma.

"The Desolate Flame Thunder Continent is located in the northwest of the continent. Whenever I think of the northwest, I think of that inexplicable Qinghe River, which makes me feel less than pleasant."

Xuan Li walked along the road, eating Qingling Fruit while complaining.

Seeing that the time for the Trial of Destiny was running out, Feng Siyue felt a little nervous for some reason, but she still didn't forget to comfort her.

"It's okay, we'll stay far away from them now, out of sight, out of mind."

"That makes sense. How far is it from Thousand Water City to Ghost Town?"

"The Wildfire Thunder Continent is located in the northwest. Due to its geographical location and lack of resources, there are very few teleportation arrays. If we travel by land, it will take us ten days."

"But with Qingqing here, we can actually arrive today."

As a divine beast, Qingqing can tear through space and arrive instantly.

It is a very good travel companion.

Xuan Li nodded thoughtfully. "So, you actually want to travel by ground?"

Feng Siyue laughed and said, "Did I make it that obvious?"

Xuan Li looked at her, "Nothing?"

Feng Siyue sighed, "There are still seven days left in the mission countdown. As long as we make sure we arrive within seven days, anything goes."

"I also want to see the scenery along the way, rather than being obsessed with completing the task."

"and....."

Feng Siyue pointed to the small print below the trial mission, "Look here."

Xuan Li looked over,

For various reasons, a teleportation array is hidden in the Southeast Wind Cliff of Desolate Flame Thunder Continent. Trial participants can go there at their own pace.

Teleportation array?

She gave up, saying, "Fine, let's go then."

Feng Siyue smiled and said, "Okay."

..........

"Two days, still no results?"

"waste."

Inside the palace, the beautiful woman picked up a teacup and smashed it against the maid on the ground, causing her head to bleed profusely!

The maid in yellow repeatedly kowtowed, admitting her mistake, "Your Majesty, please forgive us! Your Majesty, please forgive us! It's not that we can't find out, it's that there's a force preventing us from investigating!"

The woman narrowed her eyes. "Oh? Where did you come from?"

The maid's lips moved, and she stammered out a few words, "Han...Hanxi Auction House..."

The woman's gaze sharpened. "Hanxi Auction House?"

"Yes...."

The woman slowly sat down.

Why did Hanxi Auction House prevent her from investigating the deaths of the Li family members?

Could it be related to them?

"On this beautiful spring day, it must be my good-for-nothing sister who offended the noble person. I, as the elder sister, will personally come to apologize for the lavish gift I have prepared."

The maid kept her head bowed tightly and said, "Yes."

"Granny Jiang, has it been confirmed? The owners of those two high-level sacred beasts really came from there?"

The old nanny behind him lowered her head and said, "It's confirmed. The Seventh Elder of the Bai family came in person that day and spoke of the two young ladies of the Bai family. There's no mistake."

The Imperial Noble Consort slowly exhaled, "High-level sacred beasts... Spirit Emperors... The gap between the younger generation of Qinghe Luozhou and Zhongzhou is truly not to be underestimated."

She slowly clenched her fists, a ruthless glint flashing in her eyes.

The old nanny seemed to guess what she was thinking and couldn't help but advise, "Miss, a small act of impatience can ruin a great plan. His Highness the Second Prince has already reached the seventh level of the Spirit King realm and will soon break through to the Spirit Emperor realm."

"With at least a top-three finish in the Qinghe Luozhou Academy competition, and that help, His Highness the Second Prince will definitely be noticed by the Chaoyang Holy Palace!"

"When you pass the Trial of Destiny, you will be able to seize the throne of Empress."

"Wang Yeling is dead, but if we offend the Bai family because of her now, it would be a huge loss!"

The woman gave a cold, ambiguous snort, "Granny Jiang, do you think just anyone can enter a sacred place like Chaoyang Palace?"

"I know Luo'er's abilities best. Besides, do you really think I care about Wang Yeling's death?"

A useless piece of trash can only marry another useless piece of trash.

There were other things that bothered her.

"Your Majesty's meaning..."

The woman fiddled with the red nail polish on her left little finger, a smile playing on her lips. She stood up. "It's the end of April. It's time to check on Luo'er's studies."

Granny Jiang was a little slow to grasp women's thought processes, but someone who could rise from a commoner to the position of Imperial Noble Consort was clearly a ruthless character, and she dared not be careless.

"Yes."

...........

“Gasi, we cannot touch the Bai family for the time being.”

Jialuo stood under the apricot tree, murmuring softly.

"Although I'm very unwilling, you're right. With our current strength, going against the Bai family will only lead to our demise, and it might even affect those people's plans..."

The woman's fist, hidden under her sleeve, relaxed slightly.
