Since being caught by the old man and the black net, Yan Baibai lost the ability to control the evil spirit. In the end, he could only watch himself being pierced into Lu Wuxiu's body and finally losing consciousness.
When Yan Baibai regained consciousness, she couldn't wait to open her eyes. If she were a living being now, she would definitely scream at the scenery in front of her.
There was smoke in front of him. Lu Wuxiu's upper body was naked, and his lower body was immersed in water. His skin looked even paler against the backdrop of his drooping black hair. There were many remaining scars on his well-proportioned skin. The most eye-catching one was a black line one finger long on his chest.
Lu Wuxiu stretched out his bony hand and gently stroked the scar on his chest. When he put his hand down, the black line on his chest suddenly twisted, like a chain being pulled from top to bottom, and black blood flowed out from the gap.
Lu Wuxiu frowned tightly, his cheeks bulged slightly from clenching his teeth, and fine beads of sweat soon oozed out of his forehead with bulging veins. Blood flowed down his chest through his tight abdominal muscles and sank into the water. The black blood spread out from the water like a slowly growing poisonous flower.
When the black blood on his chest turned red, Lu Wuxiu finally couldn't bear it anymore and groaned. His stiff body seemed to suddenly lose support and sank softly into the water. The water waves broke up the black blood around it, and the black was replaced by red. Soon, the black line on his chest seemed to have had enough, and the zipper was pulled up again, and the wound healed.
After the black line returned to its original shape, Lu Wuxiu's slightly trembling body paused, his brows relaxed, and he slowly opened his eyes, and there was no longer any pain on his face.
Knock knock knock——
The knock on the door broke into the quiet scene. At the same time, the picture in front of Yan Baibai's eyes shattered instantly. Only then did she realize that the picture she had just seen was from the water mirror, and her current perspective was at Lu Wuxiu's heart, and she was still possessed by the black air.
"System, wake up." Yan Baibai called the system in his mind and asked, "What time is it now? Why did Lu Wuxiu suddenly grow so big?"
"Host, this is ten years later." The system's voice was also weak: "Lu Wuxiu should now be an outer disciple of the Yanjian Sect."
As if to verify the system's words, after the system finished speaking, Lu Wuxiu stood up and put on the uniform of Yanjian Sect's outer disciples. He quickly came to the door and opened it. The person standing outside the door was also wearing the uniform of Yanjian Sect's outer disciples.
Fortunately, Yan Baibai was not unable to see the outside world because Lu Wuxiu put on his clothes. Her current perspective was similar to Lu Wuxiu's.
The person knocking on the door wanted to invite Lu Wuxiu down the mountain to complete a mission. Lu Wuxiu thought about it and agreed. The path to immortality is long and arduous. For outer disciples like these who don't have access to high mountains, they have to practice while accepting missions to earn spirit stones if they want to survive.
On the second day, a dozen outer disciples arrived at the Beast Hunting Forest near the Yanjian Sect. This Beast Hunting Forest was located on the Yanjian Sect's territory, and while disciples of the Yanjian Sect were free to enter and exit, it was also open to the outside world. However, outsiders were required to give half of what they obtained from the Beast Hunting Forest to the Yanjian Sect.
Lu Wuxiu's current cultivation level has only reached the middle stage of foundation building. Even so, he has the highest cultivation level among the group, so in the hunting operation, he contributed the most and gained the most. However, there is an unwritten rule in such collective actions. Although distribution is based on work, the excess will be given to him only after ensuring that each member gets a certain share.
For the safety of the disciples, Yanjian Sect stipulated the ratio of cultivation level and number of people going to the hunting forest. For example, most of the outer disciples were in the Qi training stage. If they wanted to go to the hunting forest, they had to be accompanied by at least two cultivators in the foundation building stage and at least ten people in the Qi training stage.
With such a rule, many cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage were trying their best to squeeze into the hunting team. After all, they would not be the ones who would do the most work, and they would definitely get their share if they went.
There are not many outer disciples who can cultivate to the foundation-building stage, and when they reach the foundation-building stage, they can participate in the sect's spirit test conference and enter the inner sect. Therefore, foundation-building cultivators among outer disciples are even rarer.
As for Lu Wuxiu's side, thanks to his extraordinary performance, the team had a great harvest. They were all outer disciples, and those low-level storage bags could not hold such a large monster. Fortunately, they all had good physical strength, so they carried the prey on their backs and took it out of the forest.
Such behavior can easily attract the attention of others, and this time, Lu Wuxiu's team was robbed.
"We came all the way here to hunt monsters, but we didn't encounter any. I was wondering what happened. It turns out that some of our fellow Taoists took pity on us and hunted them down for us. I'm so sorry for your kindness."
A dozen burly men blocked the way of Lu Wuxiu and his group. Judging from their attire, they should be independent cultivators. Only these independent cultivators who were temporarily put together without a sect would dare to bully the small group of outer disciples of Yanjian Sect.
After the robbery, they handed over half of the spoils and dispersed after leaving. Where would Yanjian Sect find people? Moreover, Yanjian Sect would never send inner disciples to look for such a small thing. It was simply not worth it. This was the first reason.
Secondly, people who dare to do such things will not leave any evidence at all. When they are caught, they will throw tantrums and say that the Yanjian Sect is bullying its customers, or that the disciples who were robbed deliberately lied because they could not rob prey. Moreover, these situations are not impossible, and it will take a lot of effort and trouble to investigate them.
