The General's Genius Daughter-Chapter 102 The Splendid Hall

"Who's your Master?" The little thing sounded extremly nervous and it stared at Hua Qiyue coldly.

Hua Qiyue tilted her head, saying, "My Master... I don't know either. He refuses to tell me his name. And it's hard to find him."

She wasn't silly enough to tell others about her green jade gourd. Also, she wasn't silly enough to tell others about what she knew about Tianpi. Because just now, according to Tianpi's facial expression, she could speculate that there might exist resentment between he and this little thing.

It would be troublesome if this little thing knew that she was Tianpi's apprentice.

"Well..." the little thing was in a trance and there was a look of nostalgia in its eyes, "I miss the old days so much. It wasn't that bad to fight against each other. At least, they challenged me openly and honestly."

Hearing the little thing's words, Hua Qiyue gasped. Sure enough...

Yun Shimo suddenly took half of the Ginseng with Nine Souls that was left before and put it into his sleeve.

Actually, he was uncomfortable about it.

Hua Qiyue had a very powerful master, and her master could provide her with all kinds of magic medicines.

But what about him? He was known as the best alchemist in the world, but the effect of the pills made by him were much worse that these magic medicines.

But if he had the magic medicines, he would be able to make pills which would be much better than magic medicine. The point was, where could he get his hands on those magic medicines?

The little thing stared at Hua Qiyue with a little jealousy, "Whoa, your master must have been born ten thousand years ago, because this kind of magic medicine only existed during the Age of Shen Nie. Since you've got a lot of Ginsengs with Nine Souls, little girl, why not give me one?"

Saying this, the little thing threw the Ginseng with Nine Souls back to Hua Qiyue.

Hua Qiyue got it and glanced at Yun Shimo. Yun Shimo looked terrible, and it was really tough for him to crack the Desperate Flower Array all by himself.

"That'll be no problem if Your Excellency can let go of us!" Hua Qiyue smiled with squinting eyes, but her heart was filled with coldness and a muderous desire, saying, "But you shall wait untill we pass the last test."

Hearing this, the little thing laughed, saying, "Fine, little girl. How crafty you are! You may have learned it from me!"

Hua Qiyue twitched her mouth and thought, 'This little thing said that I was crafty? How thick-skinned it is!' She wouldn't be silly to think that the little thing would let go of them just because she gave several Ginsengs with Nine Souls to it.

Once the little thing had the Ginsengs with Nine Souls, its power would be improved a lot. So, wouldn't it be more difficult to become successful again if she and Yun Shimo failed the last test?

The little thing looked at Yun Shimo and the look in its eyes showed that it was pondering something, saying, "Unexpectedly, after ten thousand years, someone cracked the Desperate Flower Array created by me. You're good at using your spirit energies, but unluckily, I need to see the result of the last test. Let's start now..."

Saying this, the little thing dodged and disappeared in the air. Hua Qiyue heavily took several bites of the Ginseng with Nine Souls, only feeling that the spiritual energy content in her body had increased by a lot.

The Ginseng with Nine Souls really worked well, and Hua Qiyue obviously felt that her spirit power had gotten much stronger. However, Yun Shimo's face was gradually loosing color.

All of a sudden, four walls collapsed and disappeared. The surrounding environment changed—the buildings constantly grew up from the ground and suddenly made up a splendid hall which was extremely gorgeous. Even the imperial palace couldn't compete with it.

Hua Qiyue frowned; she didn't expect that the imaginary scene would change so quickly.

Although they called it an 'imaginary scene', they really had fought against it. As for Yun Shimo, how did he crack those Desperate Flower Arrays?

"Yun Shimo, the little thing said that you were badly injured... Are you okay now?" By now, Hua Qiyue thought of Yun Shimo's injuries. At this time, Yun Shimo was calmly observing the surrounding environment.

"I'm fine." Yun Shimo said coldly and emotionlessly. Hua Qiyue halted and she thought, "Did I offend him again?" But on second thoughts, "Yun Shimo must be very angry with my sudden disappearance, isn't he?"

"Is he sad? Does he feel terrible?" Hua Qiyue patted on her head and thought that there must be something wrong with her to consider about this.

Of course, Yun Shimo was angry with her because this woman faked her death and made him grieve in vain.

But she pretended to know nothing about it. So, Yun Shimo looked like a thundercloud and totally ignored Hua Qiyue.

In this splendid hall, the golden walls shined with cool golden light on which innumerous drawings of monsters were engraved. Some of these drawings were things that Hua Qiyue had never seen before.

Mythical creatures, evil monsters and every kind of creature were all engraved on the golden walls. They seemed to be alive with their eyes emitting faint and cold lights, and at first sight, they appeared quite lifelike.

In the center of the hall, there was a stove in which was the tiny burning blaze. The temperature in the hall wasn't high. There was nothing else in the hall, nor any tricky devices, except that stove.

Actually, the smartest device was invisible.

Hua Qiyue was curious and walked to the stove. She carefully looked at the stove and found nothing special in it.

Yun Shimo put up a desperate fight. Although he ate the Ginseng with Nine Souls, he didn't recover. The anima energy in his body wasn't very steady, so, he sat down quietly and refined his inner anima energy to cure his wounds.

Seeing this, Hua Qiyue knew that he was injured because of cracking the arrays, and she felt a little guilty. She took out three Ginsengs with Nine Souls as well as three Long Reds.

"Yun Shimo, eat them. There are still two Ginsengs with Nine Souls and one Long Red in my arms," Hua Qiyue said in a low voice.

"Humph, do you think that we can totally depend on these magic medicines?" Yun Shimo glanced at those valuable magic medicines in her hands and a sense of agitation rose in his heart.

Hua Qiyue blinked her eyes and thought, 'Right, the magic medicine is too powerful and of course, we cannot totally depend on it. If we eat too many magic medicines, our bodies may absorb too much anima energy, making us explode and die!'

Hua Qiyue realized that she extremely lacked experience in this field. It seemed that she should practice more in the Magic Beasts Forest in the future.

Hua Qiyue looked aroun warily. But nothing happened in the hall after waiting for a long time.

"That's strange, why is this the third test? Is it much easier than the first test? Perhaps, we can leave only if we destroy this hall?" Hua Qiyue thought in curiosity. She walked around and looked at those spirit animals on the walls but found nothing.

She touched them and kicked the walls, still finding nothing.

Walking around, Hua Qiyue returned to the stove.

Yun Shimo was still refining his inner anima energy. Hua Qiyue also ate a Ginseng with Nine Souls, but curiously, her inner anima energy was very steady.

Hua Qiyue felt the rise in temperature of the surrounding environment when she was about to sat down and take a break.

She had a look at the inside of the stove, only to see the tiny blaze getting stronger with an extremely high heat. As much as the blaze was tiny, she would feel her face burnt by something when she got close to the stove.

"Is this stove the focus of the third test that the little thing talked about?" Hua Qiyue thought.

Hua Qiyue was astonished. Generally, Qi Artists could protect themselves from the fire by using their own anima energy. She transformed all her anima energy into a protective layer, but she still felt extremely hot.

After a while, her forehead started to drip with sweat.

Hua Qiyue had to back off and the feeling of heat faded by half.

But she knew that the fire was getting stronger. Eventually, the hall would definitely become a big stove... would she and Yun Shimo be roasted?

'What should I do? Let me try other ways.' Hua Qiyue thought and glanced at Yun Shimo who was refining his inner anima energy. She waved her sleeves, only to see a breeze going toward the stove.

Puff—

With the wind, the fire made a puff sound. After another, similar sound, the fire was stronger!

They were doomed! She didn't expect that the more she wanted to quench the fire, the stronger the fire was. Was it true that she and Yun Shimo would not be able to avoid being roasted?

When Hua Qiyue was worried about it, Yun Shimo finally opened his eyes. He became serious when he saw her being worried, asking,"What? What happened?"

Hua Qiyue pointed at the stove and told Yun Shimo about the weird phenomenon.

Yun Shimo pondered for a while. He had never thought that the third test was more weird than the previous two tests, saying, "Even anima energy didn't work?"

Hua Qiyue pouted and said, "You can have a try."

Yun Shimo stood up. He was energetic after being supplied with enough anima energy. He walked to the stove and saw that the fire was indeed much stronger than before, which led to a stream of fiery breath coming to him.

Yun Shimo hurriedly protected himself with anima energy. Surely, it didn't work, which meant that even anima energy would be useless when faced with this kind of fire.

After all, the little thing was the spirit animal who was born ten thousand years ago.

"Exactly... that is to say..." Yun Shimo was in a meditative mood. When he was podering about something, with another puff sound, the fire's strength was doubled!

In this way, the temperature became higher!

Hua Qiyue stepped back and frowned, looking around the hall.

It was a large hall, but the increasingly strong fire would probably make it extremely hot because there were no windows!

Perhaps, everything that happened there was a hallucination. But inside the imaginary scene, people would also have the real feeling.

"What should we do? This stove is more difficult to deal with than the previous soul-attack!" Hua Qiyue frowned. She lacked practice, so, she wasn't sure if she would win when she was faced with the current situation.

If they were examined on Qi Art, she was confident of succeeding. But this stuff created by the little thing seemed to have nothing to do with Qi Art.

Hua Qiyue was so anxious that she paced back and forth in the hall, then she felt too angry and kicked the stove heavily, saying, "D*mn it, what do you want?"

Puff—

As soon as she stopped talking, with a puff, the fire doubled in strength, as if it were arguing with her.

Yun Shimo glanced at Hua Qiyue and said, "Hua Qiyue, you're more of a hindrance than a supporting hand. Stand aside!"

"Yun Shimo, I'll leave you alone since you're so smart!" Hua Qiyue was angry; she stamped her feet and ran away. Finally, she sat in a corner which was the furthest from the stove and extinguished the impatience in her heart.

She knew that they wouldn't work out a good way to pass the third test if she didn't calm down.

Hua Qiyue's back was leaning against the wall and the wall started to produce heat. She felt that there was something staring at her coldly. But when she turned her head, she saw nothing weird.
