Yu Huang and the others couldn’t see the bridge, so they were unable to cross it.
Kunlun could see a straight road, so he could successfully pass through the magma pool.
What Beatrice could see was a small path filled with forks.
Yu Huang sighed and said, “From the looks of it, this magma pool only lets fated people cross it.” Those who were fated could see the bridge that belonged to it, while those who were not fated didn’t even have the chance to cross this magma pool.
Yu Huang told Kunlun, “You’re the reincarnation of the Kunlun Divine Master, so the path under your feet is smooth.”
Kunlun nodded and looked at Beatrice, who was floating in another direction. He asked in confusion, “What about Beatrice?”
Beatrice had a vague guess. She said, “I’m a merman, so I have a connection with the ancient merman. I can see this bridge because of my bloodline genes. But this bridge is winding and filled with forks. It’s a test for me from the ancient merman.”
The smile on Beatrice’s charming face disappeared. She looked cold and nervous.
“That’s right!” Yu Huang completely agreed with Beatrice’s opinion and told her, “Beatrice, the winding bridge in front of you represents your golden opportunity. However, opportunities are often accompanied by risks.”
“The bridge is your golden opportunity, but the disappearing path behind you means it is cutting off your escape route. You said that the bridge under your feet is filled with twists and turns, and that means you will face countless choices.”
Yu Huang stared at Beatrice seriously and sternly as she warned her, “Be firm and patient. If you encounter a fork in the road, follow your heart. Walk forward. Don’t look back, don’t hesitate, and don’t be afraid!”
Hearing Yu Huang’s warning, Beatrice felt even more nervous, yet excited as well.
Why had she come to the Kunlun Mystic Realm?
Wasn’t it to break through her cultivation bottleneck?
Back then, when she stepped into the Kunlun Mystic Realm, she had entered with the mentality that she would die.
When she was a child, she lived a carefree life and enjoyed wealth and glory. When she was a teenager, she suffered humiliation and experienced all the hardships in the world. When she reached adulthood, she fought everywhere and killed decisively. Under her blade, the undead piled up into a mountain.
Although her life was miserable, it was also exciting.
She was already very lucky to be able to befriend good people like Yu Huang and the others, and meet a single-minded admirer like Feng Yuncheng.
Now that there was a golden opportunity in front of her, she had to seize it. Even if she failed and died, her life wouldn’t be in vain.
Beatrice thought it through and became determined.
After Beatrice looked at Yu Huang and Sheng Xiao, she took a deep breath and said hesitantly, “Yu Huang, if, if I don’t succeed…”
At the thought of Feng Yuncheng, who was obsessed with her, Beatrice couldn’t help but feel a lump in her throat.
She licked her dry lips and said in a low voice, “If Feng Yuncheng asks about me, tell him that I had a fortuitous encounter here and have to enter seclusion for 30 years…”
Beatrice didn’t realize that when she mentioned Feng Yuncheng, her blue eyes were filled with tears.
She always felt that she hated men and would never develop feelings for them. However, unknowingly, Feng Yuncheng still occupied a place in her heart.
Otherwise, at this moment, she wouldn’t have subconsciously thought of Feng Yuncheng.
At the thought that Feng Yuncheng might go crazy after she died, Beatrice felt pained.
Therefore, she decided to lie to Feng Yuncheng.
She thought that if she really failed and died, thirty years would be enough for Feng Yuncheng to forget about this relationship and start a new life.
Upon hearing Beatrice’s last words, Yu Huang immediately waved her hand impatiently. “Don’t talk nonsense with me. I don’t want to hear it. We will wait for you here. When you walk out alive, you will show off your new abilities to us.”
Beatrice smiled.
But at this moment, if she didn’t say it, she was afraid that she would never be able to say it again.
Beatrice looked at Sheng Xiao again and said, “Sheng Xiao, as the princess of a fallen country, I was reduced to a slave and plaything of the Beast Clan. If my eldest brother and second brother hadn’t saved me, I would have died long ago. I owe my life to my grandfather and his family, especially my two brothers. ”
“If I really leave, tell them not to feel sad for me.”
“I’ve been taken care of too much by them in my life. I still want to continue being their sister in my next life.” With that, Beatrice touched the safety buckle on her sword and turned around to walk forward without hesitation.
As they watched Beatrice leave, everyone couldn’t help but look worried. Estelle said, “Can Beatrice succeed?”
He couldn’t bear to think about how Beatrice might fall into the magma pool and turn into a pool of blood if she failed.
Donor shook his head. “It’s up to fate.”
Seeing that Beatrice had left, Kunlun nodded at Sheng Xiao and the others. Then, he turned around and walked towards the other end of the bridge.
The road under Kunlun’s feet was straight and wide. No one was worried about him.
As Donor looked at Kunlun’s back as he left, he couldn’t help but joke, “After Kunlun goes in alone, would two people return?”
It would have been better if Donor hadn’t said it, but once he did, everyone couldn’t help but imagine that scene.
They really felt that it was possible.
“When I think about how Kunlun married a beautiful woman like Senior Na Ling, I feel envious.” Donor crossed his arms and lamented, “When will I be able to find a beautiful wife?”
At this moment, Estelle suddenly walked to the cliff where Kunlun had climbed onto the bridge earlier. He looked down at the hot magma that was bubbling under him and suddenly turned around to say to Donor, “Donor, I’ll try to climb onto the bridge under Kunlun’s feet. If I accidentally fall into the magma pool, remember to help me.”
With that, Estelle didn’t give Donor a chance to react or answer. He stepped out without hesitation.
To Kunlun, it was a bridge that could be walked on flat ground, but to Estelle, it was really just a void.
When Estelle stepped forward, he realized that his feet had no footing. He lost his balance and fell into the magma pool.
“Estelle!” Donor’s face turned pale with fear. Risking being pulled into the magma pool by Estelle, he rushed forward without hesitation.
Donor moved quickly. The moment Estelle was about to fall into the magma pool, he grabbed Estelle’s calf.
Donor was dragged to the ground by Estelle through the falling momentum.
Donor’s body brushed against the ground as he was dragged. His white shirt, as smooth as silk, was ground to shreds. His body continued to be dragged.
Just as Donor was about to fall into the magma pool with Estelle, Yu Huang, Sheng Xiao, and the others came to Donor’s side.
Sheng Xiao grabbed Donor’s belt tightly while Yu Huang pressed Donor’s shoulder.
Donor stopped.
Estelle, who had been holding his calf tightly with both hands, also stopped.
At this moment, Estelle’s hair had been completely melted by the magma. His eyes were only a foot away from the magma.
