Sword Pavilion, Reception Hall.
Lu Yang held three long incense sticks in his hand. Wisps of blue smoke curled around him, and in an instant, thunderous voices like the questioning roar of ten thousand people seemed to ring in his ears:
"Have you ever colluded with the demonic path?"
"Do you harbor improper intentions?"
"Have you awakened memories of a past life?"
Three incense sticks, three questions. Shrouded in blue smoke, this avatar of Lu Yang had no room whatsoever to lie, and he involuntarily answered:
"None!"
His voice was righteous and forthright.
After all, as an avatar, he was spotless. He had never harbored improper intentions, nor had he awakened memories of a past life. As for colluding with the demonic path, that was something the main body had done.
What did that have to do with the avatar?
The next second, the avatar regained clarity and realized that everything just now had been an illusion. Only the three burning incense sticks remained firmly in his grasp.
However, Lu Yang could sense that these three incense sticks were no ordinary objects. The reason he could hold them steady was because he had passed the trial of those three questions. Had he failed, the incense would likely have immediately ignited his body and soul, burning him into a handful of flying ash.
With that in mind, Lu Yang promptly entered the Reception Hall.
Although he had deliberately acted ignorant before True Person Demon-Sweeping, through the Ancestor of the Yun Family, he had long since thoroughly investigated Sword Pavilion, inside and out.
The Reception Hall is especially crucial!
It was not merely a place for examining one's origins; it was also where one's inheritance was decided. The better one performed here, the stronger the inheritance one received would be!
*As expected
