The No.1 Undercover in the Immortal World-Chapter 65 Dongfang Hongyue’s Dream

Speaking of dreams, Lin Yun’s mind was filled with many intriguing possibilities.

Even the powerful witches were powerless before him in dreams, and then he’d place them in all sorts of shameful positions...

Cough, cough, cough.

Lin Yun felt that he really needed to reflect on his thoughts.

Why rely on dreams for things that could be accomplished in reality?

With these jumbled thoughts, Lin Yun found himself within Dongfang Hongyue’s dreamscape.

What you ponder by day, you’ll dream of by night.

However, for cultivators, whose Divine Souls are stable, dreaming is rare; but when they do dream, they are often much more deeply immersed.

That browed and big-eyed Taoist is still dreaming of being the Sect Leader!

Lin Yun surmised that this trial would evoke the fears and desires within one’s heart.

Arriving at Dongfang Hongyue’s dreamscape was an opportunity to see what she feared and what she longed for.

In the dream, Lin Yun could not only hear the dream owner’s inner voice but also quickly understand the context of the dream.

The background of Dongfang Hongyue’s dream was set when she was five years old.

In the dream, Lin Yun had no physical body and was merely observing from a third-person perspective.

This was a shrine hall filled with dense rows of ancestral tablets; Dongfang Hongyue was kneeling on a cushion, surrounded by various strange materials that were somewhat blurred.

In front of Dongfang Hongyue was a man who looked rather haggard.

This man was Dongfang Hongyue’s father.

"Yue’er, after I die, you’ll be the last of the Dongfang Family’s bloodline. The secret within our bloodline can only be attempted by you. Promise your father to survive, no matter what."

"Mhm."

The young Dongfang Hongyue did not understand the meaning of her father’s words; she just knew to obediently agree.

"Good child, the road ahead will be tough, and you must be strong on your own."

"Dad, don’t you want Yue’er anymore?"

"How could that be? Mom and Dad will both be watching over you from the netherworld."

The man’s voice was choked with emotion, but he ultimately held back his tears, resolutely saying, "Let’s begin!"

With that, the man sliced open his own arm with a knife, blood flowing out, and then he started etching runes on the ground that Lin Yun couldn’t comprehend. Dongfang Hongyue was at the center of the Formation, and deep inside, she had a premonition: she was about to lose her last remaining relative.

But now, crying and shouting were meaningless.

Blood-red runes were branded onto her body then disappeared, and her father finally collapsed.

Seeing this, Lin Yun felt incredibly heavy-hearted.

When the Formation activated, Lin Yun suddenly obtained a wealth of information.

It turned out that within the Dongfang Hongyue Family’s bloodline was a peculiar curse, and the Formation was a bloodline seal.

The Formation was laid out using the blood and flesh of all of Dongfang Hongyue’s relatives; no wonder those materials all looked so vague, as if they were blurred out with mosaics. Perhaps Dongfang Hongyue had buried the true appearance of those things deep within her heart, unwilling to recall them.

Lin Yun could not help but imagine the real scene, where the various items surrounding Dongfang Hongyue might have been parts of her family members’ bodies.

Sacrificing one’s kin, with the blood of the parents as a catalyst.

The whole family ascended to heaven, leaving only Dongfang Hongyue to live on.

Just obtaining this information made Lin Yun feel so burdened he could hardly breathe.

The scene shifted once more as Dongfang Hongyue was led on a journey by a faceless uncle.

This was to take her to study under a master, yet, on the way, they encountered bandits who killed the uncle and, seeing Dongfang Hongyue’s clever appearance, sold her to human traffickers.

Dongfang Hongyue, precocious for her age, fooled the traffickers by playing dumb and charming them. She even managed to escape with several other children and went to report to the authorities, only to end up being sent back by those in charge.

This part of the dream was fast-forwarded, not played out in detail, with just a few fragmented images.

It was like a PowerPoint-style movie.

The human traffickers, humiliated and enraged, crippled the other children who had tried to escape and made them beg in the streets. They intended to groom the naturally beautiful Dongfang Hongyue into a courtesan.

However, on the way to send her for further training, they ran into the Hungry Wolf Gang, part of the Red Lotus Sect. Consequently, the entire escort team was wiped out, leaving only a group of good-looking children.

The clever Dongfang Hongyue dressed herself in the clothes of a boy who had died from a stray arrow, trying to disguise herself as a male child. At such a young age, it’s generally difficult to distinguish between boys and girls unless one checks under the trousers.

But there were over a hundred children in this batch, and no one had the patience to check them one by one.

Yet, because of this, the Hungry Wolf Gang, seeing Dongfang Hongyue’s looks, believed she would definitely grow into a handsome young man and sent her directly to the Red Lotus Sect.

And so, Dongfang Hongyue caught the eye of the Red Lotus Demon Lord.

But her carefree days did not begin. After becoming a disciple of the Red Lotus Demon Lord, Dongfang Hongyue’s life could only be described as utterly unstable.

She was ambushed every time she went out, and her companions would often meet gruesome deaths, but each time, she survived by relying on her wits, which made her even more cautious.

In Dongfang Hongyue’s dreamscape, these memories played out like a movie before Lin Yun’s eyes.

Dongfang Hongyue’s dream was not a dream—it was all her past.

As if a hundred years had passed, and yet as if only a moment had gone by, Lin Yun saw her many hardships, but after she gained the power to defend herself, there were fewer scenes of this part of her story.

"The bygone past is now like a dream within a dream. It’s time to wake up from this dream."

Lin Yun suddenly heard Dongfang Hongyue’s voice, and only then did he realize, as she unlocked more and more of her cultivation in her memories, Dongfang Hongyue also slowly became aware that she was dreaming so, she was about to wake up.

Everything shattered.

Dongfang Hongyue moved on to the next level.

But Lin Yun was still standing there. He suddenly wiped his eyes and found, to his surprise, that he had teared up at some point.

Dongfang Hongyue awakened from her dream while he was still immersed in it.

"My dear Hongyue really hasn’t had it easy. Daddy will surely treasure you from now on."

What moved Lin Yun the most was that despite all the suffering Dongfang Hongyue had endured, she harbored no hatred for this world in her heart.

Watching Dongfang Hongyue grow up, Lin Yun felt like an old father watching his daughter mature step by step.

Uh, why do I naturally assume the role of an old father? Aren’t I her man?

Forget it, I hear men like it when their wives call them ’daddy.’ I’ll give it a try later.

Lin Yun felt he should find some amusement to relax a bit.

He didn’t need to worry about Dongfang Hongyue anymore; her spirit was unwaveringly stable, and she had now taken the lead.

The previously leading Daoist Zhenren was now portrayed sweeping through the Demon Tribe, annihilating the Demon Sect, and becoming the number one in the world.

Not only that, but the Saintess of Guanghan Palace would marry no one but him, although he already had a junior sister. However, considering they all loved me so much, it wouldn’t hurt to accept them all.

This must truly be having everything one could wish for in a dream!

Lin Yun couldn’t be bothered to look into his own dream any longer and turned his gaze towards the Flower Fairy’s dream.

Should I take a stroll in there?
