Dragon Monarch
Chapter 222 - The Mysterious Figure
The Gu Clan
Everything around the Snow Goddess Temple was staring at Lin Yan and Gu Yin who had just disappeared all of a sudden.
“Why can't we see this ceremony directly?” Huan Caiyi asked curiously.
Gu Yuena did not answer at all because she did not know why. He just stared at his father who was always staring at the temple with a serious face.
“In there, the new couple will be given a gift by the Snow Goddess. That's all I can tell you.” Gu Mien opened his voice and did not take his eyes off the Snow Goddess Temple. He certainly hoped that his daughter would get something useful in there.
The Elders were only silent because they had all also attended the ceremony and there was nothing special at all. They only thought it was a custom for the Gu clan members long ago.
Only the Patriarch of the Gu clan knew of such a little secret. Each generation of Patriarchs must keep that secret to the next generation. Even for the Great Elders of the Gu clan and Gu Shen not knowing such history.
Everything was just silent and waiting for Lin Yan and Gu Yin to come out of the Snow Goddess Temple. Each of the pairs that enter, they will have a different time when they come out.
Also, one thing that the Gu clan members had never realized long ago. Why would the Snow Goddess Temple only work if only a couple entered?

The Snow Goddess Temple
Inside the extremely majestic room, Lin Yan and Gu Yin suddenly appeared out of thin air. The two stared at the place they arrived at with shocked gazes.
“How can a temple that looks so small become big like this?” Gu Yin asked in disbelief.
The place looked extremely beautiful, the room they entered looked like the Royal Palace, however, the place that Lin Yan and Gu Yin entered was even more magnificent. Everything there looks like transparent glass. Not only that, but snowflakes are constantly falling.
Out of curiosity, Lin Yan activated the King's Eyes and stared at everything there. He was surprised to find something that looked amazing.
“That snowflake is a qi. But, why is it untraceable as usual?” Inner Lin Yan and the more curious what exactly the Snow Goddess Temple was.
Suddenly, a dazzling light emanated from within the enormous room. The light only shone in less than two seconds and then disappeared completely.
In front of Lin Yan and Gu Yin was now seen a path that appeared. The road is made of snow that looks solidified bluish white. The end of the road that suddenly appeared like a display bridge was not visible at all because there was only a white mist.
“Do we have to go there?” Gu Yin asked curiously.
Lin Yan simply nodded and slowly walked over while grasping Gu Yin's hand.
“Hm?” A frown appeared slightly on Lin Yan's forehead as he heard Xia Yue'er's screaming voice in order to let him out. But still Xia Yue'er could not get out even though she had been given permission by Lin Yan.
From that, Lin Yan was even more shocked because the place he entered with Gu Yin was able to withstand the Spirit Gate being created.
The two continued walking and finally reached the end of the road. The two of them entered the fog without any hesitation because Lin Yan and Gu Yin felt they should indeed enter.
In the middle of the room that was not too spacious, there was a rectangular altar. At each corner, there was an ice pole that was not very tall but continued to emit a blue flame that emitted a cold aura at the end.
The altar was filled with strange writing elongated to form a rectangle as well but each corner, leading to the middle of the edge of the altar.
“What will we do now?” Gu Yin asked turned his head towards Lin Yan.
“Let's see what the altar really is because there's only it in this place.” Without wasting any time, Lin Yan pulled Gu Yin towards the altar. The two went up to the altar to find out what would happen next.
When the two had ascended, a bluish light suddenly appeared enveloping the altar.
“Welcome to Dao couples who have been destined.”
Someone's voice sounded which made Lin Yan and Gu Yin startled.
Lin Yan directly inspected his surroundings but found nothing. He was a little wary at this moment because the Patriarch of the Gu clan did not say any clues to them.
In front of Lin Yan and Gu Yin, snowflakes appeared then condensed to form a single figure of a beautiful white haired woman dressed in light blue. His body seemed transparent because he was not a living being.
“Who are you?” Asked Lin Yan warily.
The woman smilingly looked towards Lin Yan as if she had been waiting for his arrival.
“You don't need to know who I am. But I know for sure who you are. When you arrived at this temple together with her, then my task was done.” said the woman gazing towards Gu Yin with a warm smile.
A frown appeared on Lin Yan's forehead. Know who he is? He wondered why the woman seemed to know him so well as Gu Yin.
“Gu Yin.. You have currently qualified specified because your Spiritual Root has evolved using Lin Yan qi. Before that, I will explain a little about the Snow Goddess Temple, any member of the Gu clan who enters this place will not meet me, but they will get a blessing in this Temple, she said, namely increased strength, talent and so on.”
“But, this is only to reward them because the Gu clan is the descendant of the creator of this Temple. The temple will continue to work as usual if any couple goes back inside. But, for both of you is a special case, because from the beginning, this Temple was indeed created for both of you.” The woman explained.
“For both of us? Impossible.” Inner Lin Yan as his eyes glared slightly as it instantly understood that someone who made the Shrine had seen something in the future, and that was the present he was living in.
“It seems you understand. I am not exaggerating you. What you think is true. However, what we saw only got here. And the rest depends on you because that is the way of your life.” Continue the woman.
When he heard the short explanation, Lin Yan had two keywords in his head.
First, everything that existed seemed to have been arranged by someone for her despite just fumbling around because what they foresaw did not all come true.
And one more thing, the woman called the word ‘kami’ which means not only the woman who made plans to make the Temple.
With a slightly doubtful face, Lin Yan looked towards the woman and asked, “Who are you?”
