Chapter 581 Inheritance (44)
The elders were shocked when they saw this dark energy appear.
There were some of them that charged forward in an attempt to enter the dome before it fully formed. However, not a single one of them was able to reach that dome in time and they were blocked by the dark energy wall that had appeared.
There were also some that had tried to say something to Lin Fan, but their voices were all cut off as soon as the dark energy dome appeared.
Once that dark energy dome had formed, Lin Fan and Feng Yu were completely separated from the world.
They had been cut off from the outside world, it was just the two of them in this space.
As soon as the dark energy dome came up, it was immediately silent around them. Lin Fan wasn't able to hear a single thing as they were completely cut off.
Lin Fan and Feng Yu just stood there staring at each other, almost as if they were facing off.
However, they had very different expressions on their faces.
Feng Yu had a calm look on his face while Lin Fan had deeply knitted brows.
It was clear which side was more worried about this situation.
After a long while, Feng Yu just casually turned around and waved his hand.
When he did, there was a throne of dark energy that suddenly appeared in front of him that he sat down in. There was also a table and a chair that appeared on the other side of the table, seemingly for Lin Fan to sit down in.
Then with another wave of his hand, there were some cups and some cookies that appeared on the table. Inside of the cup was some kind of brown liquid that seemed like tea.
There was even steam that was coming out of this cup to show that this was freshly brewed tea.
However, Lin Fan just stood there with a cautious look on his face.
Feng Yu picked up his cup and took a sip before looking at Lin Fan with one brow raised.
He looked at him for a bit before saying, "What's wrong? You're not going to sit down?"
Lin Fan just looked back at Feng Yu with the same cautious look without saying anything.
Feng Yu didn't seem to find offense in this as he said with a chuckle, "It'll be hard to have a talk if you keep standing like this." He waved his hand to gesture at the tea and cookies that were on the table before saying, "I've prepared all of this and you won't even take a sip of my tea?"
Lin Fan just stood there silently looking at Feng Yu.
Though there seemed to be a friendly tone to his voice, there was a hidden kind of pressure in his voice. It was almost as if he was compelling Lin Fan to sit down and have some tea and cookies.
But why was he so insistent on this?
It really didn't seem to make any sense.
In the end, Lin Fan did sit down, but he didn't reach for anything on the table. It was clear that he didn't trust the tea and cookies that Feng Yu had prepared.
Feng Yu narrowed his eyes to look at Lin Fan, but he relaxed them in the end as if he didn't care if Lin Fan had some of the tea and cookies.
That just didn't make any sense since he had even been trying to pressure Lin Fan into having some earlier.
This change really was just too quick…so quick that Lin Fan couldn't help being caught off guard.
It was also at this time that Feng Yu started to speak.
"So, I'm sure that you're wondering what I want to talk to you about. No, before that, I'm sure that what you're more curious about is what your final trial will be, right?"
He just paused as if he was waiting for an answer even though he clearly seemed like he didn't need one.
Lin Fan slowly gave a nod in response.
Feng Yu revealed a satisfied look when he heard this before continuing.
With the way that he talked, it almost seemed like he was monologuing instead of actually talking to Lin Fan.
"It's very simple, your final trial is…to have a chat with me."
Lin Fan immediately revealed a shocked look when he heard this.
Then he revealed a look of doubt as he looked at Feng Yu, as if he was trying to figure out if Feng Yu was being serious or not.
But even though Feng Yu had a smile on his face, his eyes had a serious look in them as if he fully meant what he said.
Still, Lin Fan didn't let his guard down for a single second as he released his spiritual sense.
He was trying to find if there was anything around him that was hidden.
However, there didn't seem to be a thing.
Other than him and Feng Yu, there didn't seem to be anything else that was inside of this dark energy dome.
It was as if they had been completely sealed off from the rest of the world.
It took a long time, but Lin Fan slowly asked, "What are we talking about?"
Feng Yu just calmly looked at him and said, "Tell me about your life. I want to know about you, what makes you tick, what your life is about. That's your final trial."
Lin Fan deeply knitted his brows when he heard this.
He once again looked at Feng Yu with a doubtful gaze, as if he was trying to figure out if he was serious or not.
Feng Yu just looked at him with the same look on his face.
In the end, Lin Fan wasn't able to read a single thing from Feng Yu's face.
After a long pause, Lin Fan started to tell the story, or at least the fake story of his past.
He had the memories from before he took over this body, so he told the story of the previous owner of this body. Once he was done with that, he began telling the story of what happened after he had transmigrated into this world.
Though he was talking for quite a long time, he didn't touch the tea on the table even once, nor did he have a bite of the cookies just placed there.
Though he never touched them and they had been there for a while, the tea and cookies didn't seem to change at all. It was as if there was something that was keeping them fresh this entire time.
Once he was done, Lin Fan waited to see what Feng Yu would do.
Feng Yu had been silently listening to Lin Fan as he told his life story and even when he finished, he still didn't say a word. He just looked at Lin Fan as if he was fully focused on what he had been saying and was processing it afterwards.
It almost seemed like he was trying to commit all of this to memory.
Lin Fan couldn't help feeling very strange seeing Feng Yu act this way, but he didn't say a thing as he waited for Feng Yu to speak.
After a long silence, Feng Yu finally said, "It seems like you've had quite the interesting life. There were so many different events that had me on the edge of my seat. It really must have been quite hard for you."
Feng Yu gestured to the tea and cookies on the table as he said, "Are you sure that you don't want any refreshments? I'm sure that it must have been hard on your throat to speak for that long."
Lin Fan looked down at the table before shaking his head.
Feng Yu narrowed his eyes, but in the end, he said, "Alright, that's fine."
He raised his hand up and with a wave of the hand, the dots on Lin Fan's hand suddenly lit up.
Lin Fan couldn't help looking down at his hand in shock when he saw this.
Feng Yu revealed a faint smile as he said, "As I promised, you have passed the final trial."
Lin Fan slowly looked up at Feng Yu with a strange look, as if he didn't expect Feng Yu to suddenly do this.
However, Feng Yu didn't take offense at how Lin Fan stared at him as he looked back at him with the same smile on his face.
Instead, Feng Yu suddenly stood up and walked closer before stopping halfway across the table. Standing there, he reached his hand out and said, "The last part of your final trial is…"
He looked down at his hand and back up before saying, "You have to shake my hand."
Lin Fan couldn't help being caught off guard once more when he heard this.
After all, this was the last thing that he expected from Feng Yu.
He stared at the hand that Feng Yu stretched out and then looked back up at Feng Yu with a confused look.
He just couldn't understand what Feng Yu wanted to do here.
He couldn't understand what Feng Yu was planning with this.
Feng Yu saw the look on his face and said with a teasing smile, "Are you saying that after all the daring adventures that you've gone through, you don't even dare shake my hand? Perhaps I was wrong about you…"
Lin Fan knitted his brows as Feng Yu's voice trailed off.
After a moment of hesitation, he stood up still and started moving towards Feng Yu.
Seeing this, Feng Yu once again revealed a faint smile.
