God of Love's Manipulation? Sea God's Manipulation!
In Tang San's eyes, everyone is an actor in his script; everyone's emotions, everyone's pain, everyone's life and death are all just to advance his plot.
Heaven-and-Earth Valley of Love Inquiry is the culmination of all his despicable acts.
Here, he displays his selfishness, hypocrisy, and cruelty to the fullest extent. Every time I think of this part of the story, I wish I could jump into the book, drag him out, and give him a good beating.
Wang Dong'er frowned, her mind filled with doubt.
Is that all? Although Tang San's forced manipulation of the assessment was indeed excessive, it doesn't seem to warrant Lin Ye's disgust to this extent.
Is something even more outrageous going to happen?
She bit her lower lip, her eyes fixed on the Diary in her mind, waiting for Lin Ye to continue writing.
Xiao Xiao was sitting cross-legged on her bed in her dorm room, hugging a pillow.
She read the diary entry carefully, scratched her head, and felt a little puzzled.
Testing love? That sounds rather romantic.
She remembered that Lin Ye had written before that she and He Caitou were the main characters in the Heaven-and-Earth Valley of Love Inquiry, and she wondered what kind of trials they would face.
The Far North.
Ice Empress sneered, his tone full of disdain. "What God's Trial? In his eyes, it's nothing more than a tool to scheme against others."
Snow Empress sighed softly, her eyes cold. "He can even use his own daughter to set a trap, let alone these people who have nothing to do with him."
Now I finally understand why Lin Ye hated him so much. A person like that doesn't deserve to be called a god at all.
"Yes,"
Ice Empress nodded. "A father who would manipulate even his own daughter's life for his own plans is truly one of a kind."
Jiang Nannan sat by the window of the Female Dormitory, holding an open book in her hand, but she couldn't read a single word.
Her gaze fell on the Diary in her mind, and she felt a mix of emotions.
She remembered what Lin Ye had written before.
Lin Ye said that she would completely forgive Xu Sanshi in Heaven-and-Earth Valley of Love Inquiry, resolve her long-standing misunderstanding, and then be with him.
She was genuinely curious about the power behind this so-called God of Love Trial.
It actually made her let go of all her resentment and forgive the person who had hurt her.
Or was all of this arranged by Tang San?
A strange unease suddenly rose in Jiang Nannan's heart.
Honestly, the most frustrating thing about Heaven-and-Earth Valley of Love Inquiry isn't how difficult the assessment itself is, but rather the fact that this godforsaken place has a rule that words become law.
The first challenge is called "Heart Inquiry," which is basically the truth-or-dare segment of Truth Great Adventure.
The will of God of Love will penetrate your soul directly, allowing no room for falsehood.
Her questions were very direct, repeating the same few over and over: Do you have a lover? Who is your lover? Are you willing to give everything for him? Are you willing to die for him?
It doesn't sound like a big deal; it's just saying what's on my mind.
But here's the crucial point: every word spoken here will be recorded by the laws of heaven and earth.
You said you were willing to take a knife for him, so when a knife actually comes at you, you have to stand in front of him.
You say you're willing to die for him, then when the crucial moment comes, you really have to give your life.
Can't do it? Then the assessment will fail immediately.
As for the consequences of failure, there's no need to even think about them.
While this rule is strict, it at least treats everyone equally.
But after Tang San arrived, even the last shred of fairness was crushed to pieces.
He can let anyone pass, no matter how much they talk nonsense.
He doesn't want anyone to pass; even if someone lays their heart bare before him, they will still be judged a failure.
Ma Xiaotao couldn't help but scoff when she saw this entry in the diary.
What kind of bullshit "divine test" is this? It's utterly illogical and absurd.
Can you really say it and actually risk your life? Only a god with a screw loose could come up with such a despicable rule.
What's even more ridiculous is that Tang San used this ridiculous rule as a weapon, manipulating it however he pleased.
Huo Yuhao was the first one to be questioned.
Tang San, disguised as an examiner at the God of God of Love's Inheritance Grounds, adopted a cold and sacred voice and asked Huo Yuhao, "Who is the person you love most in your heart?"
This is actually a particularly insidious question.
Because at that time, Huo Yuhao clearly had two people in his heart.
One is Wang Dong'er, who spent every day with him and went through countless life-and-death experiences together.
The other was Wang Qiu'er, who risked her life to save him multiple times.
Anyone with normal emotions would hesitate for a moment when asked this question.
But Huo Yuhao didn't. He blurted out, without the slightest hesitation, that his favorite person was Wang Dong'er.
Tang San, who was hiding behind the scenes controlling everything, almost burst out laughing when he saw this answer.
He went through all that trouble to bring Wang Dong'er to Huo Yuhao's side, wasn't it all for this moment?
Huo Yuhao's choice perfectly matched his expectations for the script.
Therefore, Tang San waved his hand dismissively, without making things difficult at all, allowing Huo Yuhao to smoothly pass the Heart Inquiry stage.
In a corner of the cafeteria, the food in front of Wang Dong'er had long since gone cold.
Her hand holding the chopsticks froze in mid-air; she felt no emotion, only a chilling coldness.
In Tang San's eyes, Huo Yuhao's "my favorite" was nothing more than a line that had already been written in the script.
Tang San was never satisfied with how much Huo Yuhao loved her, but rather that his pawns had finally obediently moved to the positions he had designated.
After the Heart Inquiry session, the second challenge, "The Great Adventure," begins.
A giant golden disc will rise in the center of the arena, covered with all sorts of challenges.
Everyone has to go up and take a look around; wherever the indicator stops, that's where the corresponding task must be completed.
On the surface, this seems to be a process that relies entirely on luck.
But in reality, there's no such thing as luck.
The will of God of Love has long seen through the deepest weaknesses and fears in everyone's heart; the indicator on the wheel will always stop precisely on the one you least want to face.
Those who can grit their teeth and finish will advance to the next level.
Those who fail to complete the task will be thrown into the so-called "Deep Adventure".
It's called Deep Adventure, but it's really like a suspended death sentence; nine out of ten people who go in don't survive.
Xiao Xiao sat cross-legged on her bed in the dormitory.
Seeing this, she couldn't help but shrink further into the blankets.
This is outrageous! It was supposed to be a lucky draw, but it was all pre-arranged.
Why bother with all that spinning? Just call out names directly.
When it's her turn, and the task is assigned to what she fears most, she'll definitely faint on the spot, and then she'll be doomed.
