Chen Yi thought for a moment and realized there was nothing good to say goodbye to.

As Su Xin said, it's not like we can't come back.

"But I haven't taken the immortal exam yet!" he suddenly said.

Su Xin clenched her fists, forcing herself to remain calm, and said, "You've already gone abroad, why are you still thinking about your immortal exam?"

"That immortal test was merely a selection process to identify those capable of establishing their foundation. You have already established your foundation."

"Even getting into the top cultivation academies is just to be noticed by various sects and become a higher-level servant. My Hidden Moon Sect controls several third-level cultivation kingdoms and is one of the top sects in the fourth-level cultivation kingdoms."

"If you can join my Hidden Moon Sect, it will be equivalent to avoiding decades of detours."

Chen Yi touched his nose.

I always felt that such a good thing wouldn't happen to me...

"Besides, as you've seen, all the ranks in the Crimson Dragon Kingdom are tied to official positions. If you want to attain a rank, you have to enter officialdom. It's developed to the point where it's not an exaggeration to say it's hereditary," Su Xin said frankly.

Chen Yi's eyes widened. "Is this really that exaggerated?"

"If you dare to covet it, then you can expect to be skinned alive by those powerful clans!"

"In contrast, our Hidden Moon Sect adheres to the Jueyin Dao lineage, maintaining its own positions based on merit, making it far fairer than the Crimson Dragon Kingdom. If you can't compete with your fellow disciples, you can seek opportunities in the subordinate cultivation kingdoms; you have many more paths to choose from..."

As Su Xin spoke, she flew off in a certain direction.

Chen Yi took one last look at the ruins of Xiande Middle School, and then followed.

Little did he know that from that moment on, a legend about him would begin to circulate in Xiande City and the surrounding cities...

......

On the way, Chen Yi hesitated for a moment and asked:

"Um, with my talent, what level would I be considered in your Hidden Moon Sect?"

Su Xin gave Chen Yi a strange look.

"Your skill level? Not bad..."

Unfortunately, Chen Yi has no spiritual root, so the further he goes, the harder it will be for him to catch up with those people.

If one transplants a spiritual root, there is also the possibility of rejection, and one's cultivation speed is far slower than that of those who are born with spiritual roots.

However, he was a person who had established his foundation in the Heavenly Dao. In the entire Hidden Moon Sect, only the direct disciples could compare to such a foundation.

Upon hearing this, Chen Yi couldn't help but show a thoughtful expression.

That's alright.

If someone is exceptionally talented from the start, it's inevitable that they will attract attention.

"If I join the Hidden Moon Sect, can I directly enter the inner sect?"

Su Xin sighed helplessly.

How would I know? It's not up to me to decide.

"This matter still needs to be decided by Master."

Chen Yi then asked, "Is your master male or female?"

“Male.” Su Xin finished speaking and warned, “This is your last question, don’t ask it again!”

"Fine!" Chen Yi said, pursing his lips.

He realized that he had accepted the three-year Golden Elixir Project!

How many resources would that require to achieve?

Hopefully, the Hidden Moon Sect won't let me down...

No matter what he asked after that, Su Xin did not answer.

The two arrived at a deserted place.

Su Xin suddenly took out a formation plate.

She threw the array plate onto the ground.

"Buzz!"

The array patterns immediately spread out in concentric circles.

Chen Yi's expression changed.

This is... a teleportation array?

He sensed the spatial fluctuations within the array patterns.

Generally speaking, teleportation arrays require a large number of Void Stones as the array base, so they are very large in size.

But a small teleportation array was actually sealed inside this array plate.

The person who sealed it into the array plate is probably more skilled in array formations than I am.

He secretly activated his "One Glance at the Formation" skill to observe.

Sure enough, the complexity of the silk threads in the dish was beyond his ability to handle.

The last thought in his mind was also extinguished.

He originally thought he could tamper with the formation to send Su Xin back alone, while he himself would not be teleported.

At the very least, we should be teleported to different places with her.

The Hidden Moon Sect is definitely not a good place; it's best to avoid going there if possible.

Unfortunately, this teleportation array is too advanced.

He has not yet figured out how to crack it.

"Come in," Su Xin said.

Chen Yi did not go in, but instead said, "You say the Hidden Moon Sect is so good, but I am, after all, an outsider, and my safety cannot be guaranteed."

"If I teleport there and get captured, wouldn't that be the end of me?"

Su Xin frowned: "Then what do you want to do?"

Chen Yi's lips curled up slightly. "It's simple. Sign a contract with me, and if anything happens to me, you're dead too."

Su Xin's expression turned cold. "You don't believe me? I even stepped in to smooth things over with Master Bai Mu for you."

Chen Yi shook his head: "One thing at a time. You dealt with Master Baimu only for your own mission."

Su Xin gritted her teeth: "Are you forcing me to use force?"

Chen Yi revealed a confident smile: "Do you think you're still my match?"

Upon hearing Chen Yi's words, Su Xin's eyes dimmed slightly.

yes!

Chen Yi is now a being who has completed the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment.

Although she is a true Foundation Establishment cultivator, and only in the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment, she probably wouldn't stand much of a chance against Chen Yi.

She had to get past this final hurdle, no matter what.

She turned her head away, gritting her teeth, and said, "Draft a contract!"

Chen Yi began to draft the contract with satisfaction.

In this way, one gains an extra layer of protection.

The Hidden Moon Sect was able to cultivate Su Xin to the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, so they probably wouldn't easily give her up.

He had drafted the contract in less than two minutes.

As the master of two Foundation Establishment level demon beasts, he had considerable experience with contracts.

Of course, what was signed with Su Xin was definitely not a master-servant contract.

Otherwise, if the other party's master found out, he would probably beat him to death, and Su Xin probably wouldn't be willing to sign the contract.

Su Xin glanced at the contents of the contract, which roughly stated that if Chen Yi died, she would die as well, a common occurrence in life-and-death contracts.

The difference is that this is a one-way life-or-death contract; if she dies, Chen Yi will be fine.

However, in her eyes, even if Chen Yi died, she herself wouldn't die...

What she found even more amusing was that the contract was valid for three years!

Three years?

Su Xin gave a cold laugh.

In just three short years, do they all think they have the ability to protect themselves?

Do they really think the Hidden Moon Sect is the Crimson Dragon Kingdom?

She resolutely offered a drop of her heart's blood and signed the contract.

After signing the contract, Chen Yi obediently stepped into the teleportation array's range.

"Whoosh!"

With a spatial fluctuation, the two figures disappeared from the territory of the Crimson Dragon Kingdom.

......

A Taoist temple in the territory of the Hidden Moon Sect.

The white-haired old man, draped in a crane-feather cloak, seemed to sense something.

"Suxin, you are indeed my good disciple." He smiled with satisfaction.

He already sensed Su Xin's return, and that she would bring someone with her.

He threw a formation plate from his hand.

The array plate was exactly the same as the one in Su Xin's hand.

"Buzz!"

The array plate was suspended in the open space in front of the hall.

The next instant, two figures appeared.

"Su Xin, well done!"

"Master, your disciple has lived up to your expectations!" Su Xin said respectfully.

The old Taoist priest smiled faintly, his gaze sweeping over Chen Yi behind her.

"You didn't fail in your mission, but you disgraced yourself?"

Su Xin's heart tightened; she knew her master had seen through the contract...
