Chapter 1422: Chapter 1424: His Heart Test _1 Chapter 1422 -1424: His Heart Test _1 Seeing the fervent reactions of the women from the Lin family, those under the Sovereign of Light didn’t dare make any rash moves.
In fact, if Guxing wasn’t on their side, no one among the current assembly of Sovereigns could contend with the Lin family.
Moreover, folks like Baozi and Heitu, who were also Sovereigns, clearly sided with the women of the Lin family.
Guxing Diaosou said with a poignant look, “Young ladies, you’ve misunderstood me.
I didn’t say that An Ning and Su Mingyue betrayed us.
It’s just a possibility.
I too am under suspicion.
...
It’s too early to draw conclusions, you need not worry.”
Upon hearing Guxing’s words, Sunflower Scar and the others looked a touch relieved.
If Guxing also pointed fingers at An Ning and the others, Sunflower Scar and her group would truly be on the brink of falling out with him.
“Yet under the current circumstances, the suspicions on all of us cannot be excluded.
With the imminent arrival of the Fierce Beast, we must find a solution.”
Guxing cast his eyes on the crowd.
Many were in agreement with him.
“Senior Guxing, what are your decisions?
What should we do?”
“Yes, it’s a question of everyone’s safety.
You must come up with a solution.”
“We’ll follow your instructions, as long as there’s a solution.”
Guxing raised his hand to quiet the crowd slightly before slowly starting to speak.
“There is actually a way.
Have you all noticed this Chaos Altar?”
Everyone was currently on the Chaos Altar and hence had seen it.
They all nodded.
“Previously, someone asked me what the holes on this altar were for.
At that time, I said I didn’t know, but in fact, I did.”
Guxing Diaosou walked to the large pit in the middle, “This pit is called The Other’s Heart Position, and the small pits around it are called Self Heart Position.”
Everyone listened closely, not quite grasping his point.
“Why are they named so?
That’s because if someone is inside this Other’s Heart Position and others are in the Self Heart Positions, we could probe into the thoughts of those in the Self Heart Positions!”
Upon hearing this, everyone’s faces changed color.
They could hardly believe that such a miraculous mechanism existed in the world that was capable of probing a person’s thoughts.
Even though many firmly believed they were innocent in this matter, who didn’t have secrets in their hearts?
Who would want their inner world probed?
Hence, many exhibited signs of repulsion.
Witnessing this, Guxing Diaosou said, “There’s no need for everyone to worry.
Although it’s possible to probe into someone’s thoughts, it’s a very complex and difficult task.
I do not wish to do so.
However, if it’s targeting a specific question, the task becomes easier.”

“If everyone agrees, I can enter The Other’s Heart Position because the person there must be stronger than the rest.
I’ll then ask a targeted question.
Everyone need not respond.
If you quietly stay in this pit, I’ll know the answer in everyone’s heart.
Whether it is true or false, if someone lies, their position will emit light.
At that moment, we will know who betrayed us, all will be clear at a glance.”
Everyone fell silent.
The matter sounded somewhat strange, and no one was willing to try it voluntarily.
Seeing the standoff, the Sovereign of Light took the lead and stepped up.
“Senior Guxing, what if everyone has no issues?”
“If no issues are found, then the problem lies with me.
However, I believe it won’t come to that.
If it does, I’ll willing to fight the vicious beasts personally to prove my innocence!” Guxing’s words hit with conviction, making it highly persuasive.
“Alright!
I did not betray anyone, I have no fear!
Senior Guxing, I am ready!”
“Very well!”
Guxing Diaosou nodded approvingly, then took the initiative to enter The Other’s Heart Position.
The Sovereign of Light chose a small pit to enter.
Others watched from the edges as Guxing Diaosou asked the first question.
“Have you ever betrayed everyone?”
As per agreement, the Sovereign of Light did not respond verbally.
Instead, a faint ray of white light flowed from his Self Heart Position straight to The Other’s Heart Position where Guxing was.
Everyone held their breath, anticipating what might happen next.
About five minutes later, Guxing Diaosou emerged.
The Sovereign of Light also had no movements on his end, suggesting his successful completion.
“Everyone, since no reaction was found from the Sovereign of Light, and having listened to his inner voice, there are no issues.
We can clear him of suspicion.”
“Wow, this is so magical.
I’ll give it a try too.”
Another Sovereign, who was fairly close to the Sovereign of Light, stepped forward and took Guxing Diaosou’s test.
About five minutes later, this Sovereign was also cleared without any issue, marking the successful completion of his test.
Seeing no dangers, yet another Sovereign stepped up.
Five minutes later, he successfully finished his test, no problems found.
After three people had taken the test in a span of fifteen minutes, the Vicious Aura around them was getting denser.
It seemed as though the Fierce Beasts were almost done digesting the corpses of the Sovereigns and could be here anytime.
One of the Sovereigns couldn’t resist asking, “Senior Guxing, if we continue testing like this, with so many of us, when will it end?
Can we speed it up?”
Guxing nodded, “Indeed, we could go faster.
Everyone could enter a Self Heart Position, and I’ll then ask a question.
You all respond together, and I could receive all your answers at once.
If someone has a problem, we could tell instantly.
Ten minutes should be sufficient.”
“Wouldn’t that be too taxing for you?”
“Hehe!
It’s nothing.
For the lives throughout the universe, it’s insignificant.”
The question-asking Sovereign went first to a Self-Heart Position.
Then a second, third …
tenth person entered.
As more Sovereigns entered the Self Heart Position, Sunflower Scar and her group had no choice but to follow suit.
Although they were all confident of their innocence, they felt that something was slightly off.
Now that everyone had stepped into the pit, anyone who didn’t follow would undoubtedly be seen as guilty.
No one could afford to carry the blame for betraying so many Sovereigns.
With no other choice, Sunflower Scar and the others each entered a Self Heart Position.
Feng Qingluan stood in front of her heart position, feeling a little anxious.
“Sisters, I feel something is off.
Should one of us stay behind?”
Sunflower Scar thought for a while, then gently nodded, “You stay behind for now.
If anything happens, you could still inform your husband.”
Feng Qingluan pondered for a moment, then firmly planted her feet, refusing to go down.
“My sisters go ahead.
I’ll wait and watch.
If you agree with our test, we’ll proceed.
If not, it ends here.”
Guxing Diaosou gave Feng Qingluan a deep look, then said nothing more, opting to test the rest first.
So Sunflower Scar, Ning Qingxuan, Bai Xue, Bai Susu, Heitu, Baozi, and others all entered a Self Heart Position.
The previously tested Sovereign of Light and two other Sovereigns, along with Feng Qingluan, stayed up to observe.
Guxing Diaosou once again entered The Other’s Heart Position and asked his previous question.
Now there were at least fifty-six people being tested simultaneously.
Excluding Guxing Daiosou himself, there were fifty-five Sovereigns!
Fifty-five rays of white light converged onto The Other’s Heart Position on the Chaos Altar.
A bright white light illuminated the Chaos Altar.
Boom!
The altar emitted a dull rumble.
This time, the test seemed slightly different from before.
A sense of foreboding instinctively rose in Feng Qingluan’s heart.
