Eternal Temptation: Awakening Sinful Desires

Inside the teleportation zone of the Twilight Mist Sect, there were many spatial formations connecting the sect to several locations across the continent. They could transport people from one place to another in a matter of seconds.

This allowed the disciples of the sect to travel all over the continent, allowing them to gather information, expand their horizons, and grow stronger through various experiences. This also served as a way to foster connections between the various powers that governed this land.

As one of the most renowned sects on the continent, the Twilight Mist Sect held a lot of power and influence, which made it necessary for them to ensure that they had access to every important location possible.

So, they installed multiple spatial portals at strategic points throughout the continent, providing convenient transportation for the members of the sect and allowing them to visit faraway lands without spending too much time traveling between them.

However, this also allowed the sect to maintain an active presence everywhere and act as a mediator between the various factions whenever conflict arose.

Furthermore, since these portals were all connected to the Twilight Mist Sect, it allowed major clans and families to send their juniors to the sect for the disciple recruitment trial without worrying about their safety during the trip.

And it was here in this hall, which had been cleared out for today, that the young generation of the major forces from distant regions were arriving through the spatial formations.

Each of these young men and women was wearing robes embroidered with their clan or family's symbol, showing the pride they took in belonging to such a prestigious organization.

One of the spatial formations glowed with a brilliant light as it activated, creating a vortex that engulfed the area around it, and two people emerged from it.

The two people standing on the platform were a young man dressed in a silver robe with a gray dragon symbol emblazoned on his chest and a young woman clad in a dark brown dress embroidered with a maple leaf design on it. The former wore an expression of confidence and excitement on his handsome face, whereas the latter had an air full of arrogance and aloofness radiating from her gorgeous face.

The moment these two individuals stepped into the hall, they attracted the attention of many others present there, since their appearance was quite unique and striking.

The man had a head full of golden hair, and his eyes were like golden suns that shone brighter than even the rays of sunlight pouring in from outside.

Meanwhile, the woman possessed long, wavy reddish-brown hair that cascaded down her shoulders in waves and a pair of auburn eyes that glimmered like jewels in the night. Her appearance was enough to capture anyone's heart, making it difficult for others to avert their gazes away from her beauty.

After all, she possessed a unique dominating aura that could make some men with a certain disposition fall to their knees before her and do her bidding, just to get stepped on by her as a reward.

"Oh? It looks like we've attracted attention already. Don't you think so, Lingyu?" The man spoke up after noticing all eyes staring in their direction. His tone sounded amusing, as if he were enjoying the attention that came with being famous.

"Hmph, they are just a bunch of nobodies who don't even deserve to be noticed. Don't bother me with such trivial matters, Yuan Long." Long Lingyu replied with her usual disdainful tone, even when she was speaking with her fiancé.

"Don't be so rude, Lingyu. After all, I am your future husband. Shouldn't you treat me better?" Yuan Long chuckled as he tried to wrap his arms around her shoulders, but a single look from her made him freeze on the spot.

"Do you have a death wish, Yuan Long? If so, then keep annoying me. Otherwise, shut up." She warned him without mincing her words.

"Ahhh, you're always so cruel to me, Lingyu."

"Hah, if you don't want me to treat you like this, then do better. You should know I hate incompetence more than anything else. Now let's go." Lingyu snorted before walking towards the reception, ignoring the whispers that followed behind her.

"Yes, yes. I shall be following behind you, my queen." Yuan Long laughed as he rushed after her, ignoring the looks of envy thrown in his direction.

However, before anyone could react to what they had just seen, another spatial formation flashed as it activated, drawing everyone's attention once more.

Out of it came a figure clad in blue silk robes that seemed to be dyed using the purest of waters. It was adorned with delicate patterns of clouds and flowers. The most striking feature of this newcomer, however, were her long blue locks of hair that shimmered like azure waves underneath the sun.

As soon as she appeared, her sparkling aquamarine eyes, which seemed to possess the essence of life itself, swept across the surrounding crowd with curiosity. The beauty in those eyes was enough to enchant anyone who stared into them, making them feel as if they were being drawn into a mesmerizing ocean.

However, before long, a glint like an electric current passed through her irises, and her lips curled upwards into a smile as she recognized one of the figures that had arrived before her.

"Long Lingyu? It appears she is here as well." The blue-haired girl murmured under her breath as she watched Long Lingyu walk past the reception. "It looks like I will be facing off with her during the trials." Her eyes narrowed as she continued to watch Long Lingyu and her fiancée leave.

In fact, Long Lingyu recognized the blue-haired beauty the instant she entered the room. 'Lei Liwei, huh? Interesting. This should prove to be an enjoyable experience.' She thought as she pondered about the mysterious girl from the distant Lei Clan.

Many more people poured in after that, and the spatial array was never idle as it transported all the aspirants from various corners of the continent.

However, as the stream of applicants started dwindling down, the atmosphere of the hall also became more solemn as most of the participants had already registered and the trials were about to begin.

Just as the tension in the hall became palpable, several individuals appeared from different spatial portals. Their aura was so imposing that they silenced the entire hall.

The moment they felt the aura, everyone understood that there were some people from the older generation who came along with their junior generation to watch the disciple selection trials of the Twilight Mist Sect.

There were five such individuals. They were divided into three different groups, with two men in one group, two women in the other, and the remaining lone person by himself.

The two men in one group had similar characteristics to one another, which made it clear that they were related to each other. And judging by their age gap and facial features, it was easy to deduce that the older one was the father of the younger one.

The older gentleman had red hair with streaks of white mixed into it, and he had an imposing demeanor that demanded respect.

Meanwhile, the younger man with him stood out due to his crimson-red eyes that had a sinister vibe to them, which made him seem dangerous. His face was expressionless, as if he cared little for what was going on around him.

They were both wearing black robes embroidered with a blood-red spear pattern on their chests, showing off their affiliation with the Li clan that is renowned for its blood spear arts.

The two women, on the other hand, also had striking appearances. The first one was a middle-aged woman with a voluptuous figure and fair skin, with her lavender hair tied up in a bun while her pink eyes gave her a mysterious appearance. She had an elegant and dignified demeanor and wore a purple robe that had a white lotus symbol on it.

She was accompanied by a young woman who was quite striking in her own right. She also had similar hair and eye color as the middle-aged lady, except she had her long hair cascading down her back and her eyes held a mysterious vibe to them. Her attire consisted of a tight-fitting purple robe that hugged her slender figure.

The moment they appeared, the red-haired man from the Li Clan reacted, looking at the middle-aged woman with long lavender hair with eyes full of interest and desire. "Matriarch Cai Xinyi, what a coincidence to meet you here.

I never imagined you'd also be interested in coming to watch the trial of the Twilight Mist Sect." He said as he stared at her figure without bothering to hide his lustful gaze.

Cai Xinyi didn't pay attention to this as she was used to such reactions from others, so she didn't bother commenting on it and instead kept her face impassive as she responded, "Greetings, Patriarch Li Wang. Indeed, I came to witness the trial, but my main purpose was to accompany my daughter, Cai Yan, to the sect. She is also participating in the selection trials. What about you?

Does that boy next to you plan to join the sect as well?" She asked, glancing at the expressionless youth beside him.

The red-haired man known as Li Wang raised his eyebrows in surprise at hearing Cai Xinyi's words. "Oh? Is that so? Well, my son, Li Xueli, wanted to join the sect so he could compete with someone worthy of his level, as he had already surpassed his peers." He glanced at his son, who remained indifferent throughout the conversation.

Cai Xinyi glanced at Li Xueli as well and scoffed in her mind. 'How arrogant! Just like his father.'
