Bab 2965: The Couple's Challenge

In time, the desert became a deadly territory that only consumed the lives of the people who entered. Not another man was ever sent in again.

Eventually, the king realized that only couples were allowed to enter the desert, especially those who had gone through hardships together. So, the king made a rule. When a particular relationship was not blessed, the couple could take the challenge and visit the desert together. If they could make it out alive, the king would personally bless their union and publicly announce them as a newlywed, so no one was allowed to break them apart ever again. In addition, the king would even reward them with money and assets.

The couple was the perfect example. They were related as a master and a disciple.

The man was a master, known as Fu Xiaotian.

The woman was his disciple, known as Le Yingying.

A relationship between a master and a disciple was generally forbidden. Moreover, Fu Xiaotian already had a wife.
