Chapter 617 The so-called choice

"Brother, what do you mean?"

Even the most obtuse person will understand who is being treated differently when they see two people in the village separated, one following the original trajectory and the other heading towards a completely unfamiliar road.

Xiao Ziyun didn't understand. Amber was just the son of a merchant, and he always had a bad reputation. Even if he was talented, he couldn't be like this, right?

Could it be that the apprentice she chose was not good enough?

Compared to Xiao Ziyun's simple confusion, Jiu Jianxian had more on his mind.

What he is worried about now is no longer whether Amber can pass, but he is afraid that his cheap senior brother will really see something.

Hope everything goes well.

As the two watched nervously, Amber parted ways and walked toward the innermost part of the village alone.

Soon he came to a very luxurious mansion, even if it was much more grand than the mansion in Yuanshan Town.

Is it so obvious?

Although there is always a force trying to control his thoughts, but compared to the soul that has already merged with heaven and earth, this impact is almost like a breeze blowing on his face.

Needless to say, it must be the examiner hiding in the dark who did something.

Forget it, the show still has to go on. Since he wants to play, just have fun with him.

Standing in front of the door, Amber looked around and waited for a long time, but there was no response. Could it be that he was asked to knock on the door.

Thinking of this, he did not stay where he was. Instead, he climbed up the steps and grabbed the thick door knocker.

Bang, bang, bang.

"Is there anyone?"

Just when Amber finished speaking, the closed door was opened from the inside.

What caught his eye was not a concierge or a servant, but a beautiful woman wearing white mourning clothes.

Her facial features are extremely delicate, and every proportion seems to be based on the aesthetics of a man. Plus, she is wearing white clothes at the moment, which makes her look even more attractive.

"Sir, it's not safe outside. Come in with me quickly."

The woman said as she was about to hold Amber's hand.

"Hey, wait a minute, men and women don't have sex, girl, please respect yourself."

Amber quickly avoided the delicate palm that looked like white jade, and even deliberately kept the distance away.

The woman was slightly startled, as if she didn't expect that she would be rejected, but she quickly reacted and said in an anxious tone: "Sir, I'm not joking with you. If you have anything to say, please wait until we enter the room to talk about it, okay?"

As if echoing her words, an extremely strange cry suddenly sounded in the village, and it was very close.

Amber frowned slightly and followed him into the house without wasting any more time.

As the door was closed, the sound disappeared instantly.

"Son, I'm so cold."

As soon as the woman closed the door, she rushed towards Amber.

No, I am only thirteen years old, how can you do this?

Amber complained in her heart, and took a step back in time to let the other person escape. "If you have something to say, please tell me. I won't play with you anymore."

"Sir, why are you so heartless? Am I not beautiful?"

The woman's face showed surprise.

The Dugu Sword Master hiding in the dark also had the same expression, because this face and temperament were completely modeled after the thousand-year-old vixen he saw when he was a child.

Being able to seduce the incomparably talented Jiang Ming to such an extent, every smile and every frown has unparalleled charm.

Even though Amber is still young at the moment, children are already very sensible these days, and with the vixen killing beautiful women of all ages, it is absolutely impossible for her to end up like this.

"What does it have to do with me whether you are beautiful or not?"

Amber rolled her eyes, feeling helpless as if her intelligence had been insulted but she had to play with a fool: "What was that scream just now? Why did you say there was danger outside?"

Hearing this, the woman who was still in a sluggish state instantly returned to the way she had been charming all living beings before. She only heard her say sadly: "There... there is a monster in the village. In addition to having to sacrifice a boy to it every month. Also, no one is allowed to leave their house after the sun goes down, otherwise they will be eaten as food.”

"Then when I was outside just now, why did I see those villagers smiling so happily?"

Amber asked, continuing to pretend to be confused.

"That's the monster's magic. It casts an illusion that makes everyone immersed in the happiest scene."

When the woman said this, fear showed in her eyes, "It also said that it wanted me to be its cauldron. My family has been eaten all because of resistance."

"Sounds awesome."

Amber did not drop her words, "But don't be afraid. There are a few sword immortals from Shu Mountain outside. With them here, any monster will be easily captured."

"Yeah, it's really great."

When the woman said this, her eyes became a little dull again.

Amber stared at it for a long time, feeling a little bored, and prepared to go out and walk around again. Unexpectedly, as soon as he lifted his feet, he heard a horrified cry from behind.

"Master, Master!"

Amber turned her head in shock and saw that the originally calm woman suddenly became filled with fear. She said in a trembling tone: "This monster is in my body. Please kill me. Hurry, I'm about to suppress it." Can’t hold it anymore!”

Oh, have you changed your tricks?

Amber pursed her lips, not only did she not listen to her words, but she even stepped back.

Perhaps sensing his thoughts, the originally human-looking woman suddenly began to grow hair on her body, and her eyes turned into vertical pupils.

"Kill me and she won't survive!"

Countless accents are mixed together to form a very strange intonation, which doesn't sound like anything interesting.

Amber, who was still retreating, stopped when she saw this scene.

"Is the monster really inside you?"

"Yes, kill me quickly!"

The woman changed back to her human form and said pitifully.

This time Amber was convinced that the examiner should let him make a choice, whether to kill this woman and completely solve the crisis, or to find other ways, such as inviting an outside wine swordsman or something like that.

But once you choose the latter, the results of the assessment can be imagined.

Under the design of Dugu Sword Master, Amber passed through the initial stage of beauty very smoothly. Whether it was because of her age or not, it was over.

Now onto the second one.

Kill one person and save many.

What should he choose?

Not only the Dugu Sword Master who controls the illusory formation is staring here, the Jiu Sword Master and Xiao Ziyun in the sky are also looking at Amber without blinking.

Compared with Lin Xiaoxiao's smooth journey, his journey here was full of twists and turns.

"Senior brother, this assessment is unfair. Amber is only so old. Isn't this embarrassing?"

Jiujianxian said angrily.

"Senior brother, the leader, naturally has his reasons for doing this. Look, isn't your little apprentice already..."

Before Xiao Ziyun finished speaking, he saw Amber in the courtyard having pulled out the long sword he had just obtained from his back, and stabbed the woman's throat at an extremely fast speed.

Clean and free, without any hesitation.

Why is he so decisive?
