By the time they returned, the Five Sects Tournament had already been underway for quite some time.
The most controversial one is Xiao Yan of the Crimson Fire Sect. However, many people are not optimistic about this once unknown figure. Only a few elders of the Crimson Fire Sect believe that he may be a dark horse.
The most popular one is Xia Wanqing, a prodigy who has been lying low for more than ten years, broke through to the second realm, and recently reached the middle stage of the Golden Core realm.
Her face was like a lotus emerging from the water, cool yet gentle, with an unyielding spirit and exceptional talent. She was the envy of almost all female cultivators and the dream lover of 99% of male cultivators.
Dressed in striking red, she stood out in the crowd, her every smile and gesture captivating and unforgettable.
Secondly, there is Ye Qingyu, the personal disciple. He is also exceptionally talented. He comprehended the sword heart at the Golden Core stage. Although he has not yet reached the realm of man and sword as one, he is already a Nascent Soul cultivator.
Then came Li Ze and Nalan Qing from the Xiaoyao Sect. Although they were talisman cultivators, they were not to be underestimated. After them were Ruan Siyin, the direct disciple of the Fanyin Sect, which was full of female cultivators, and Mu Lingxiao, the direct disciple of the Liuyun Sect.
His gaze fell upon a woman with a charming and slightly flamboyant appearance, dressed in a captivating purple robe.
A smile played on Qiyue's lips.
I remember that one of them liked Luo Wuji and the other liked Xia Wanqing.
[They fought fiercely on the Feng Hou Continent. Unfortunately, Luo Wuji was devoted to Xia Wanqing, while Ruan Siyin, after failing to win her over, tried to kill her several times, but ultimately died at Xia Wanqing's hands. The Fanyin Sect also suffered suppression from Luo Wuji and was almost destroyed. Although it survived by chance, it was removed from the list of the Five Sects.]
[This Ruan Siyin can be put to use. The Fanyin Sect cannot perish. If the Fanyin Sect is gone, the Qingyang Sect, which was promoted by Luo Wuji and Xia Wanqing, will be a rabid dog that bites indiscriminately.]
Since Mu Lingxiao didn't come, we don't need to worry about him for now.
Xie Ji'an and the others frowned and looked at the man on the stage, dressed in blue and with an extraordinary air about him.
Looking completely bewildered, wasn't that Mu Lingxiao, the direct disciple of the Liuyun Sect?
Could it be that someone else is impersonating him?
Soon, Qiyue's true feelings were revealed.
Who would have thought that the esteemed heir of the Flowing Cloud Sect was actually his half-brother in disguise? Meanwhile, the real Mu Lingxiao was in seclusion, undergoing a breakthrough.
[Speaking of which, Mu Linghan is truly pitiful. He and Mu Lingxiao share the same father, but because his mother was a courtesan, he lives a life worse than a dog. He seems extraordinary, but who would have thought he was a cripple who was abused and had his legs broken?]
[He was obsessed with secretly cultivating and humiliating everyone, but how could a cripple with no resources compare to his elder brother, who was his direct disciple? In the end, he died at the hands of a demonic beast.]
[It's true what they say, comparisons are odious. The lives of cannon fodder seem insignificant, like they don't even exist. Suffering upon suffering, death looms above suffering. If they were the protagonist, they'd have already soared to the top!]
However, helping others is helping yourself. This kid is worth a shot. As for resources, the sect seems to have plenty...
But how can we help? I've got it!
[I remember there are always those old men in novels and TV dramas, right? Perfect! First, save this kid's life, then pretend to be an old man to provide him with resources, get him some pills to heal his leg, and then secretly take control of the Flowing Cloud Sect while improving my own cultivation.]
With the sect leader of the Flowing Cloud Sect as my subordinate, reaching the pinnacle of life is just around the corner!
Qiyue became more and more excited as she thought about it, and her eyes even started to look lewd.
Completely unaware of the seven people staring at him like he was a monster.
Wow! My junior sister is terrifying!
However, despite their sighs, the seven of them quickly fell into deep thought. Although the Xunhui Sect had abundant cultivation resources, each person had a limited supply. How could they secretly send more cultivation resources to their junior sister to help her complete her grand plan?
Tsk.
At the same time, Nalan Qing, who had already noticed Qiyue, turned her gaze to Li Ze, who was going up on stage to compete.
If everything is as that woman said, what's wrong with becoming a knife in her hand? Everyone looks out for themselves. Rather than becoming a puppet for her father to win over others, or a plaything for others, she would rather become strong and trample all those who treat her like trash under her feet!
Qiyue naturally noticed Nalan Qing's gaze, but she didn't care because no matter how Xia Wanqing changed, she couldn't change her desire to be in the limelight and to be admired by everyone.
Li Ze is bound to get into trouble, and Xia Wanqing will definitely not let go of this opportunity to show off and gain fame.
Similarly, Xie Ji'an and the others also noticed the gaze that was constantly looking at their junior sister. Although they were very unhappy, they managed to suppress the urge to beat up Nalan Qing because they thought that everything was arranged by their junior sister, and instead focused their attention on the stage.
Fu Xiu's competition is different from others. As a support without combat power, other people's competitions might require one party to be unable to get up, but Fu Xiu only needs to last for an incense stick to burn to win.
On the stage, Li Ze was using talismans to attack or defend against the Liuyun Sect cultivators who were wielding swords. He was completely unfazed and even took out a pen to draw talismans.
Her series of moves were so impressive they made everyone's scalp tingle, and July's toes were practically digging into the ground.
[This kid really has no experience. Doesn't he know that showing off will get him struck by lightning? He's putting on this pointless act, which, while revealing his genius, has also garnered him a lot of hatred.]
[Especially those restless evil cultivators, how could they possibly allow such a genius to grow up?]
[You idiot, you've made it so that what started as a test has turned into something much worse. You'd be doing yourself a disservice if you didn't kill them. Tsk tsk tsk.]
Qi Yue looked disgusted, but Xie Ji'an and the others suddenly realized, "We've learned something!"
