Chapter 275 Staying for now



"I am Li Yu, the Sword Master of the Jade Palace of the Xizhou Wanmai Sword Sect."

Xiang Sheng still clearly remembers the first time he met Li Yu in Dongzhou.

Although she did not show up at the time, she was just watching in the dark.

After reincarnation, Li Yu lost the coldness and composure of his previous life, and his demeanor showed the straightforwardness and innocence of a young man.

Xiang Sheng sat with him and drank tea for a while. Without asking any questions, he learned from him the names of his senior brothers and sisters on Wuming Peak.

The eldest brother Qin Tianyan is also the leader of the lineage. It is said that he is the younger brother of the sect leader Qin Tianque.

It seems that because of this relationship, this weird and willful lineage is allowed to exist within the Wanmai Sword Sect.

Xiang Sheng listened but felt something was wrong.

If it was really because of the relationship between the lineage master and the sect leader, why did the higher-ups in the sect turn a blind eye and why did the eight lineage masters work together to force her into this lineage at the disciple recruitment ceremony?

Judging from the previous disciple-recruiting ceremony, those sect leaders are clearly people who value talent. Aren’t they afraid that her joining this sect will delay her cultivation?

Xiang Sheng couldn't understand and frowned slightly, but Li Yu didn't notice and continued talking.

"Big Brother is also very strange in accepting people. He only accepts junior brothers and sisters, and does not accept disciples."

Li Yu ate some snacks while speaking incoherently, "So the disciples in our lineage are all of high generation. When we meet the lineage masters, we just need to address them as senior brothers and sisters. As for the true disciples below, sigh..."

Li Yu sighed bitterly, "They are all either in the Nascent Soul stage or the Spiritualization stage, their cultivation is far superior to mine, and they still need to call me Uncle Master when they see me.

Whenever I encounter such an occasion, I get so anxious. Third Senior Brother always takes me there. It's really annoying!"

Xiang Sheng listened with a smile on his face, without saying a word, and listened to what Li Yu continued to say.

"The second senior brother's name is Yao Xuanjia. He usually takes care of the mountain affairs when the eldest senior brother is not around. He is a serious person, but he treats us very well."

"Third Senior Brother's name is Yao Ziyi."

When Xiang Sheng heard this name, his eyes narrowed slightly.

Just now, she clearly sensed the fluctuations of time coming from that person. Although the other party suppressed it very well, as a fellow possessor of the artistic conception of time, her perception and resonance were more acute.

If she didn't have the breath-holding technique to isolate all the breath in her body, she would have been hard to escape the other party's detection.

Shouldn’t this person’s surname be Chen?

Thinking of this, Xiang Sheng pretended to be surprised and asked, "Third Senior Brother has the same surname as Second Senior Brother?"

Li Yu nodded, "Third Senior Brother was also picked up by Second Senior Brother, and he was with Second Senior Brother the longest, so he took his last name.

Later, as more people came to the mountain, Second Brother felt it was inappropriate for everyone to have the same surname as him, so he gave each of us three surnames.

Xiang Sheng nodded slightly.

After hearing this, she finally understood that Li Yu knew nothing.

Let’s just call him Li Xiaoliu.

"Fourth Senior Sister Su Qingqing has a hot temper, and Fifth Senior Sister Shui Yueyao is lively. They are both very good people. If you can stay, you will definitely like it here.

Then I will take you to the back mountain to collect spiritual herbs, and I can also take you to the spiritual tower and spiritual pool to practice..."

Li Xiaoliu was still imagining the happy future of traveling around with his junior sister, but he didn't know that at this moment, the eight clan leaders had gathered in the Xuan Palace and were discussing in a serious tone about Xiang Sheng's entry into the Nameless Peak.

"Uncle Xuan, didn't you say that the arrival of the seventh is the completion and can determine the name of the meridian?"

The Master of the Huangjian Vein frowned, "Why can't I do that now?"

"Yes, Master."

"Let's finalize the name as soon as possible and head straight for the Pantheon! If we wait any longer, I'm afraid our Hidden Sword lineage will be ruined."

The other vein masters echoed the sentiment, and the Xuan Palace Master, who was sitting cross-legged on the high seat, flicked his tail, raised his head, and opened his sharp eyes.

"Shut up, everyone."

This light sentence carried a heavy pressure that could overwhelm the heavens and the earth, causing everyone to pause and fall silent in an instant.

The Xuan Palace Master then continued, "You all thought I had been in the palace for a long time, but you didn't know that you deliberately stuffed that little kid into Wuming Peak?"

When these words were spoken, everyone was embarrassed.

The Xuanjian Vein Master chuckled, "Uncle Master, you're wrong. That day, it was clearly the little girl who saw that Master Jade Sword was kind and asked to join Nameless Peak. We were just following suit."

The Lord of Xuan Palace was silent for a moment, and finally he sighed softly. Under the expectant gaze of everyone, he took out a tortoise shell and started to tell fortunes.

In just a moment, Xiang Sheng fabricated a brief life story, which turned into lines of small black characters and appeared on the tortoise shell.

"An orphan girl without a home, burdened with hardships, born perfect, trapped waiting for her destiny."

Palace Master Xuan's eyes flashed with scenes of Xiang Sheng wandering as a child, being repeatedly bullied, and struggling to survive, and he suddenly fell silent.

He has lived for too many years and seen too much suffering in the world, so he no longer feels anything.

This silence was certainly not due to pity, but because the hexagram on the tortoise shell had never appeared before.

Born perfect, waiting for the immortal fate.

It is quite common for an immortal seedling to be born in the mortal world and confined to a certain place waiting for its chance to become an immortal. But to be born perfect... these four words are too heavy.

What is perfection?

No one is perfect. Even though the sect leader Qin Wuque has unparalleled cultivation, he cannot be described as perfect.

How could an ordinary child who was just over ten years old be worthy of this?

Moreover, the hexagram's words were so profound, yet the child was able to endure it and not die from persecution by the Pantheon?

Could it be that this is really a divine secret...

The Lord of Xuan Palace's eyes shifted constantly. He pondered for a long time before raising his head. His serious words echoed in the palace.

"Chen Xiang, stay at Wuming Peak for now."

"Chen Xiang, stay at Wuming Peak for now."

In the Nameless Peak, a young man with a simple and honest appearance said this. Li Xiaoliu immediately jumped up happily and hugged the honest young man.

"Very good!"

"I knew you wouldn't chase Junior Sister away, Second Senior Brother."
