Even Dogs Wouldn't Fall in Love

In fact, after Gao Yunyi's meddling, Fu Yihang's courage and boldness had already been halved.

But he still walked towards that "mountain of knives" studded with rusty nails.

Just as he himself said: He believed in Brother Gao.

Because Brother Gao's eyes looked very sincere (actually, he just simply looked down on him).

Brother Gao's attitude was very frank (actually, he was just too lazy to bother with him).

Having met such a sincere and helpful confidant before his death, Fu Yihang had no regrets.

The nails were very sharp and pointed.

Fu Yihang was terrified.

But he still stepped on it with his right foot.

The expected stinging and penetrating sensation did not occur; it felt as if I were walking on flat ground.

It didn't hurt at all; in fact, it felt quite comfortable.

"Huh..."

Fu Yihang's face, which had been scrunched up in fear of getting hurt and in pain, immediately relaxed.

"The boots Brother Gao gave me have such a peculiar function."

Fu Yihang had both feet on the spikes, but instead of being hurt, he even felt a little urge to dance.

But to those around them, this scene looked like a ghost, and they all wore expressions of disbelief.

Master Gao was the same; his mouth was wide open, and he didn't even notice the tea dripping from the corner of his mouth onto his clothes.

"This... this..."

"I'm fine... hahaha... I'm fine..."

Fu Yihang was as happy as a child, and he quickly walked across the long wooden block studded with nails.

"How so?"

Master Gao stood there, stunned, when suddenly a bad premonition welled up in his heart.

Could this idiot really pass the test of Sword Mountain and Sea of Fire?

Wouldn't my precious daughter have to marry into that family and suffer?

No,

Absolutely not.

"Someone, add more charcoal! Quickly fan the flames and make that pile of charcoal burn even hotter, redder, and scorching hotter."

Master Gao grew anxious and shouted loudly at the stunned guards and servants around him.

The servants immediately snapped out of their daze and sprang into action, some adding charcoal, others fanning the flames.

The courtyard immediately became quite lively.

Then,

A hellish path engulfed in raging flames then appeared.

Fu Yihang's smile vanished, and he said resentfully to Master Gao:

"Uncle... you... you've gone too far."

To everyone's surprise, Master Gao arrogantly turned his head to the side and snorted coldly:

"Hmph!! My rules are my rules. Since you don't have the guts, then give up and go back."

So Fu Yihang turned his pleading gaze to Gao Yunyi.

However, Gao Yunyi turned his face away and ignored the other person's pleas.

He didn't expect this guy to win so easily.

He's already done what he could to help; the rest is up to him.

Seeing that his elder brother seemed to have given up on him, Fu Yihang let out a desperate wail in his heart.

But he wasn't the kind of person to give up easily. He had already overcome one hurdle; giving up now would only make him look down on.

We'll give it our all.

Fu Yihang frantically cheered himself on, his eyes fixed on the raging fire.

Then,

He actually rushed in.

Gao Yunyi and Master Gao simultaneously turned their faces back to them.

The moment Fu Yihang bravely rushed into the sea of fire,

Gao Yunyi finally thought highly of him.

I believe Master Gao felt the same way.

Unlike the "mountain of knives," the "sea of fire" causes damage to the entire body.

Although Fu Yihang felt nothing in his feet, the rest of his body felt as if it were being burned by fire, with intense burning pain surging over him like a tidal wave.

He screamed in pain instantly.

Fortunately, the path of flames was short, Fu Yihang quickly broke through it.

But by this time, his appearance had changed drastically.

Her inner garments were charred, her exposed skin was burned, and even a significant portion of her hair and eyebrows had been burned off.

He looked like he had just crawled out of a mine.

But thankfully, he didn't burn to death and survived.

Gao Yunyi was speechless when he saw his expression.

There's a water tank right next to you. Why don't you just wet yourself with water before rushing into the fire?

He's so brainless, no wonder he couldn't pass the Xiucai examination.

"Hahaha... I did it! Xiuer, did you see that? I did it!"

At this moment, Fu Yihang was like a madman, excitedly shouting and yelling in the yard, seemingly completely unconcerned about the pain of being burned by the flames.

Gao Yunyi fell silent.

Master Gao also fell silent.

"Uncle, I have passed the test."

After shouting and yelling, Fu Yihang excitedly rushed to Master Gao and looked at him intently.

"Um."

To everyone's surprise, Master Gao simply gave a soft "hmm".

"Uncle, I have passed the test."

Thinking that Master Gao hadn't heard him, Fu Yihang shouted again, raising his voice.

"I heard it, I'm not deaf."

Master Gao picked at his ear piercing with his finger and retorted irritably.

Master Gao's feelings can only be described as mixed. Although he is still unwilling to marry his daughter to him, his opinion of him has changed.

This dimwit, who's missing a screw in his head, isn't entirely useless.

"Then when will you marry Xiuer to me?" Fu Yihang excitedly.

Master Gao said, "Isn't there one last test? Let's wait until that pond freezes over."

"It will definitely freeze over, the pond will definitely freeze over, I'm going to pray to God and the gods right now."

Having successfully passed two challenges Fu Yihang was now full of confidence, as if freezing the pond was no longer a difficult task for him.

He braved Sword Mountain and Sea of Fire and seas of fire for love; surely that would move the heavens?

After saying that,

Fu Yihang then ran out of the courtyard.

The way Gao Yunyi and Master Gao looked at him was as if they were looking at a fool.

Gao Yunyi suddenly felt a pang of regret.

Is it really a good idea to help such an idiot marry a rich and beautiful woman?

A rich and beautiful woman marrying such an idiot, her future is probably going to be miserable.

Master Gao also regretted it.

The attitude that had just begun to improve has vanished.

Are you out of your mind, you idiot?

Didn't you notice anything wrong with what I just said?

I meant we'll talk about it when that pond freezes over.

It's the middle of summer now, how could the pond possibly freeze over?

Couldn't you have waited until the pond froze over in winter before proposing marriage?

No,

My precious daughter absolutely cannot marry him.

Unless God agrees.

Gao Yunyi and Master Gao exchanged a glance, both seeing disdain and regret in each other's eyes.

"Young Master Gao, would you do me the honor of joining me for a drink inside? I'll have my servants prepare some appetizers to go with it."

Master Gao's expression changed very quickly, and he extended a warm invitation to Gao Yunyi.

He was extremely satisfied with this young master Gao.

He's got the looks, the charisma, and the manners—he's practically his dream husband.

Compared to him, Fu Yihang, that idiot, is like heaven and earth; the difference between them is immeasurable.

"Cannot."

Faced with Master Gao's warm invitation, Gao Yunyi simply gave a cold reply and then turned to leave.

Joke,

He's a cultivator.

They dared to try and sway his ambition to cultivate immortality with mere romantic love.

Besides,

Love is such a thing...

Even dogs wouldn't talk about it.
