"Oh, I forgot you turned sixteen these days. You're about the same age now."
As luck would have it, the old man who was picking up scraps next door just came out of the cabin. Seeing Chen Sui holding the animal skin in his hand, he didn't look surprised at all.
Shen Sui was bewildered: "What do you mean?"
The old man did not answer but asked, "Where is that big sack of garbage I gave you yesterday?"
"It burned itself," Chen Sui said very honestly, "just now. If you had come earlier, maybe you could have seen it one last time."
The old man's expression froze for a moment: "What, you said it's gone?"
"Yes," Shen Sui nodded, but he noticed that the old man looked a little strange, so he said very vigilantly,
"You don't want me to compensate you, do you? I'm telling you, I don't have a dime on me. And you gave it to me yesterday. And it's impossible for me to light a fire myself even though I live in a thatched hut. Unless I'm crazy..."
Before Shen Sui finished speaking, he made the old man laugh in anger: "Do you think I am the kind of person who will take back what I give?"
Chen Sui: “…” To be honest, looking at your expression just now, I suspected that you wanted to hit me.
The old man sighed and said, "Forget it. I stole it anyway. I'll just burn it. It will be a good opportunity to destroy all evidence. If that annoying old man comes looking for me, there will be no evidence."
Shen Sui: “???”
No, what does it mean to destroy the body and cover up the evidence? What does it mean to be dead and have no evidence? Is that how you use the words?
The old man snorted coldly and said, "Let me first tell you about the animal skin in your hand."
Chen Sui subconsciously clenched the animal hide in his hand, and then heard the old man say: "The animal hide in your hand is an invitation letter from the major immortal cultivation sects in the Purple Emblem Realm to people of the same age as you who are sixteen years old."
Zihui Realm, Immortal Cultivation Sect, Invitation Letter.
Chen Sui was stunned. This was the first time she heard information about this world so directly. She didn't expect that she would travel to a world of immortal cultivation.
The old man thought she was shocked by the invitation from a cultivation sect, so he whispered to her, "Having an invitation doesn't mean you have the aptitude to cultivate immortality. If you haven't tested positive for your aptitude, you'll just be able to grab a meal and come back."
Shen Sui's eyes suddenly lit up.
Eat for free.
I can actually get a free meal!
Chen Sui was so excited that her hands holding the animal skin were shaking. She couldn't wait to say, "Then we can go to the immortal cultivation sect now... Oh no, is there a test for immortal cultivation aptitude?"
Old man: “…”
Don't think he didn't hear your strong desire to eat for free. The old man coughed twice: "Of course you can..."
"Then let's set off quickly!" Shen Sui interrupted him and urged.
Old man: "..." Isn't it so urgent? And why does he want to go too?
"It shouldn't say that I can only go alone," Chen Sui unfolded the animal skin in her hand. Although she was a little distressed that she still couldn't understand the words on it, it didn't stop her from raising her head and looking at the old man with sparkling eyes.
"Don't you want to come with me? It's a free meal! And if every immortal cultivation sect can test immortal cultivation aptitude, then we won't have to worry about food for several days in a row. We can go to this immortal cultivation sect to eat today and go to another one tomorrow, right?"
The old man looked at Shen Sui's sparkling eyes and was shamefully moved by Shen Sui's words.
Yes, why didn’t he think of doing this? It would probably piss off those stingy old guys to death.
The old man immediately hit it off with Shen Sui: "Okay, then which immortal sect do you plan to go to first?"
Chen Sui touched his chin and asked, "Which immortal sect do you think has the best food?"
Speaking of this, the old man said very confidently: "It must be the Taiji Sect. Although the old guys in the Taiji Sect are particularly rigid, you have to admit, the food cooked by the Taiji Sect chef is delicious."
"Then let's go to Tai Chi Sect first!"
Chen Sui saw Xuan Qing muttering something while drawing on the ground with a wooden stick he picked up. After a while, Xuan Qing threw away the stick, picked up Chen Sui, and stood in the middle of what he had drawn.
Chen Sui only heard a swish sound, and the next second he was looking deeply into the eyes of the Tai Chi Sect's plaque.
Shen Sui was simply stunned, and Xuan Qing said proudly: "I know you especially admire me now, so hurry up and praise me."
"This is amazing! I..."
Chen Sui opened her mouth and wanted to say some words of praise, but for some reason, she said,
"My bangs aren't even messed up."
Xuanqing: “???”
"Hey, hey, hey, Xuanqing, what are you trying to do in front of our ancestor, old man?"
An old voice came over, and amid the crowd's loud exclamations, an energetic old man wearing a robe printed with crescent shapes walked up to Xuanqing and Song Jinyi.
Shen Sui pricked up his ears, trying to listen to the whispers in the crowd.
"Isn't this Elder Wuxu from the Taiji Sect? I heard he's the most unkind person. Why is he here?"
"Could it be that the Taiji Sect's recruiting elder this year will be Elder Wuxu? If so, I'm doomed."
"I heard that Elder Wuxu has now reached the late stage of transformation and is about to enter the spirit separation stage. The Taiji Sect is undoubtedly very powerful. I think they can compete with the Eight Gates Palace this year."
"Who is Elder Wuxu greeting? Could he also be an elder from one of the five major sects?"
Xuan Qing tutted his words and said, "I'm not saying anything, Wuxu, you're dressing more and more flamboyantly. It's obvious that Wuzhen's taste is getting worse every year."
Wuxu smiled and said, "Are you really not afraid that our leader will hear it?"
Xuan Qing rolled his eyes at him unceremoniously. "How could he possibly hear that? He's either cultivating or dealing with your sect's affairs all day long. And even if he did hear it, it would probably go in one ear and out the other. What am I afraid of?"
Before Wuxu could say anything, a majestic voice came down from the top of the Taiji Sect's mountain with great penetrating power. There was a hint of anger in the voice, causing the entire Taiji Sect to echo with this voice.
"Xuanqing, hurry up and get up here!"
Xuanqing was stunned. Wuxu's tone was filled with a hint of gloating: "Oh, it seems that our leader is neither practicing nor managing the affairs of the sect now."
Xuan Qing: "..."
Chen Sui was about to express his concern for Xuan Qing, but Xuan Qing snorted coldly, "Am I afraid of Wu Zhen?"
After saying that, Xuan Qing picked up Chen Sui and flew directly to the mountain gate of Taiji Sect.
Shen Sui: “???”
No, you are not afraid, but I am. She is still a rookie. If the leader of the immortal sect wants to kill her, he wouldn't even need a slap. Maybe a frown can make her die on the spot.
Can you please not take me with you if you want to show off?
