No one has ever stirred my emotions like that child before…
Bai Qingnian looked up again in Long Qianling's direction and found that she had been led to the front of the spirit testing platform.
Above them were the high seats, in the middle was the spirit testing platform, and at the bottom were the cultivators who came to watch. Long Qianling was led to the spirit testing platform by that senior brother.
"Put your hands here," the senior brother said gently.
Long Qianling raised her hand and did as she was told, as her hand touched the spirit-testing platform.
In an instant, a blinding red light shot through the sky, illuminating the entire square.
"A top-grade fire elemental root! And the purest fire elemental root at that!"
"Xuantian Sect has struck gold again. They already had an elder with a top-grade water spirit root, and now another genius has arrived! No wonder they are the number one sect in the cultivation world!"
"Why isn't it my spiritual root! Ahhhh, I really want to join the Xuan Tian Sect too!"
The cultivators below began to discuss it animatedly.
The sect leader and elders on the high platform were overjoyed. To be able to pass the Heavenly Ladder so quickly, and to have a top-grade fire spiritual root, he was indeed a promising talent.
They were happy, but Bai Qingnian, standing to the side, seemed somewhat absent-minded.
"Little one, what's your name?" The Sixth Elder took advantage of the moment when no one was paying attention and flew down to Long Qianling's side, asking in a soft voice.
Long Qianling frowned and took a step back without making a sound.
"Little kid, are you interested in joining my Fu Feng group?"
"Go away, go away! With a fire elemental root, she should be at our Sword Peak. Why is she going to Rune Peak? It's such a waste of her talent!"
"Shut up, all of you! She should come to Danfeng!"
As soon as the Sixth Elder made a move, the other elders quickly flew down to Long Qianling, fearing that if they were a step too late, such a good disciple would be snatched away.
On the high platform, Bai Qingnian frowned as he looked at Long Qianling, who was surrounded.
If that child really has a problem, he can't let his senior brothers and sisters take such a risk, so...
"Little child, would you be willing to take me as your disciple?"
Surrounded, Long Qianling, who was about to get angry, immediately suppressed her anger upon hearing his voice.
The elders around her looked up at Bai Qingnian, who was still standing on the high platform, as if they had seen a ghost. The sect leader next to him was also shocked.
"Master, junior brother, do you really want to take her as your disciple?" the sect leader asked.
Bai Qingnian said gently, "Didn't Senior Sister hope that I would take on a disciple and make Moon Goddess Peak more lively? Junior Brother has taken a liking to her, and hopes that all Senior Sisters will give her up."
The elders looked at each other, and then, with perfect understanding, flew back to their seats.
"Since Ninth Junior Brother likes it, then this little kid is yours. Maybe the next genius will soon be able to climb the ladder to heaven," the Sixth Elder joked.
“Yes, Ninth Junior Brother’s disciple is our disciple, it doesn’t matter who takes him on,” Fifth Elder said with a smile.
Long Qianling glanced at the Fifth Elder with her red eyes and shouted in her heart.
No, it's different! I call you Little Fox Master because it's just a bit of fun between us. Don't even think about taking advantage of me, you old hag!
"If that's the case, then little one, would you be willing to become his disciple?" The sect leader looked at Long Qianling on the spirit testing platform with a kind expression.
Long Qianling stared intently at Bai Qingnian with her red eyes, and when she found that he was also looking at her, she gave him a big smile and then knelt down with a thud.
"Disciple Long Qianling greets Master."
Bai Qingnian was momentarily distracted by her smile. After regaining his senses, he gave a faint "hmm," then raised his hand in the air, lifting Long Qianling up with him.
Then he flew down to Long Qianling's side, took out a white jade bracelet from his pocket, and gently put it on Long Qianling's wrist.
Long Qianling felt a warm current enter her body, accompanied by a force that washed over her limbs and bones.
"This is a gift from your teacher to you. Wear it carefully," Bai Qingnian said gently, looking down at her.
"Thank you, Master!" Long Qianling smiled slightly and reached out to stroke the jade bracelet. She could feel the powerful energy contained within it.
This must be the little fox's true demonic power...
"Sect Master, Elders, if there's nothing else, I'll take my disciple and leave now," Bai Qingnian said gently, looking up at Lin Zhichen.
Lin Zhichen knew he disliked such scenes and didn't stop him. "Then you should take your disciple back to Moon Goddess Peak first."
Bai Qingnian nodded slightly and reached out his hand to Long Qianling. Long Qianling immediately understood and reached out her small hand to grasp Bai Qingnian's index and middle fingers.
Noticing the warmth on his hand, Bai Qingnian paused, looked down, and saw his newly accepted disciple looking up at him with bright red eyes.
I got to pet the little fox! I'm so happy!
Long Qianling felt very happy.
"Let's go back." As soon as Bai Qingnian finished speaking, he led Long Qianling away from the spirit testing platform.
Their departure did not affect the selection process. The Heart-Questioning Ladder eliminated most of the participants, and the Spirit-Testing Platform eliminated a portion of them. The remaining participants were carefully selected and were able to successfully join the Xuantian Sect.
...
Bai Qingnian brought Long Qianling back to Moon God Peak, where a very beautiful silver-white palace appeared before them, with the three large characters "Moon God Palace" written on the plaque.
"Master, have we arrived?" Long Qianling looked at him with her beautiful eyes and asked curiously.
"Well, this is Moon Goddess Peak. You'll be staying in the side hall from now on. If you have any questions about cultivation, you can come to the main hall to ask me." Bai Qingnian looked at her adorable appearance and couldn't help but reach out and pat her head.
If it weren't for the child's problems, he might actually be able to try to get along with her and become a loving teacher and student.
"Yes, I understand, Master." Long Qianling nodded eagerly, but she couldn't bear to pull her hand away from his.
"Hmm?" Bai Qingnian tugged at his hand, looking down at her with some confusion.
Long Qianling reluctantly let go of his hand.
"I have other matters to attend to, go play by yourself." As soon as Bai Qingnian finished speaking, his figure flashed and disappeared in front of Long Qianling.
"Okay~ Master." Long Qianling looked at the spot where he disappeared, curled one corner of her lips, and raised her small hand to look at it.
Play by myself? How do you expect me to play? Little fox~
Long Qianling turned around and walked directly into the Moon Goddess Temple. This was the place where she had lived, and she wanted to take a good look around.
After Bai Qingnian left, he went straight to the library and plunged into the mountain of books, trying to figure out why his heart raced when he saw his disciple and whether he had some kind of premonition.
Is it really as he thinks, that this child truly has a problem?
