Zhou Bin and the other two stared at the stage with their eyes wide open, watching how things developed.
Just as everyone was laughing at the old man, suddenly, a sharp, crying voice broke through the noisy air. A young girl was seen crying and running towards this side desperately.
She saw the old man lying on the ground with blood at the corner of his mouth. Her face was immediately filled with grief, and she rushed to the old man like a wounded deer.
Her voice was filled with tears, trembling in the air: "Dad, what happened to you? Who beat you like this?"
The old man raised his head with difficulty when he heard his daughter's voice. His wrinkled face was full of pain. He slowly pointed to the stage and gasped weakly.
The girl looked in the direction her father pointed, and saw a group of cultivators standing on the stage. One of them was a young man looking at them with a mocking expression.
The girl's face instantly turned red, her eyes burning with anger. She raised her head and loudly asked the stage, "Why did you hurt my father? How did he wrong you?"
The moment the young man on the stage looked at the girl, his expression suddenly changed, and a strange light flashed in his originally cold eyes.
He did not respond to the girl's question, but raised a malicious smile and turned to the old man and said, "Old man, why didn't you tell me earlier? Who cares about your broken stones? If you had told me earlier that you had such a beautiful daughter, as long as you presented her to our leader, I would have agreed to let you participate in the selection."
The old man's face was originally twisted with pain, but when he heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had grasped the last straw to save his life. He ignored the pain in his body and asked anxiously: "Is what you said true? As long as I give my daughter to you, will you really let me participate in the selection?"
The young man raised his lips, nodded with a half-smile, and said, "Of course. Didn't I make it very clear just now? Whether you donate spirit crystals or offer beautiful girls and boys, you can participate in the selection."
When the old man heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up with excitement, as if he was injected with a magical power, and he struggled to stand up from the ground.
This scene made everyone present speechless. Just now, everyone watched the old man dying, as if he would die in the next second, but they didn't expect him to stand up again in an instant.
Everyone's eyes were filled with disbelief, and they were all thinking: How come this old guy suddenly became so strong?
Zhou Bin was also extremely surprised. He really thought that the old man would not live long, but who would have thought that he seemed like a different person in the blink of an eye.
This dramatic change made Zhou Bin open his eyes wide and look at the scene in disbelief.
Bailong and Xiaobao were even more stunned. They thought the old man was about to die, but they didn't expect that he could stand up so vigorously. This plot reversal was really unexpected.
Under the surprised gazes of the crowd, the old man turned around and said to his daughter anxiously: "Daughter, did you hear that? They agreed to let me participate in the selection. This is really great!"
As he spoke, the old man danced with excitement, as if his dream was about to come true. This scene once again shocked everyone. This guy was like a chicken with blood, completely ignoring his daughter's feelings and immersed in his own fantasy. It was really unbelievable.
The daughter looked at her father in shock. She had completely understood what he meant. Her father had lost his mind in order to participate in the selection of cultivators. He was actually going to hand her over to these people just to exchange for a chance to participate in the selection.
If she hadn't heard it with her own ears, she would never have believed that it would happen to her. She looked at her father in disbelief, her face full of disappointment and anger, and asked loudly with a trembling voice: "Dad, what on earth are you going to do? You're actually going to give me to those people?"
The old man nodded anxiously and said, "Yes, only in this way will they agree to let me participate in the selection. If you don't go, I will never have the chance to become a cultivator in this life." As he spoke, he kept urging his daughter, his eyes full of eagerness and greed.
The daughter's eyes widened, and the anger on her face became more intense. She simply couldn't believe that her biological father could be so cruel and push her into the fire pit for his own selfish desires.
The only reason he did this was to participate in the so-called selection. This sounded like a ridiculous reason, but the facts were in front of her, forcing her to accept this cruel reality.
The girl was so angry that she was shaking all over and shouted, "Dad, you are crazy! I will never go to their place!"
The old man was delighted to think that his daughter would obey him, but he was unexpectedly rejected.
He was immediately furious, his facial muscles twisted with anger, and he cursed loudly: "You rebellious son, how dare you disobey me! If I tell you to go, you have to go, even if you don't want to go! This matter is not up to you!"
At this moment, the girl was already in tears, and her eyes were blurred by tears. She really couldn't understand why her father would become so crazy and do such a heartless thing just to participate in the selection of cultivators of Tengyun Sect.
Seeing that the girl was unmoved, the old man became more anxious and shouted at the top of his voice: "Are you going or not? If you don't go, I will beat you to death today! Go quickly!"
When the people around saw this, instead of showing any sympathy, they started to make a noise. They laughed at the old man loudly for being useless and unable to discipline his own daughter, calling him simply an old waste.
