Fortunately, not long after, people from Qingyun Sect came walking on clouds, looking down from high above, with fluttering robes. Each of them had an immortal look and outstanding grace, which shocked everyone into silence immediately. Nearly ten thousand people in the silent square were staring at the three men and three women in the void in fascination.
Envy, jealousy, yearning...all kinds of emotions spread across the square.
About a quarter of an hour later, three colorful auspicious clouds floated down from the top of the mountain. The one leading them was actually the middle-aged man who hesitated in front of Lai Siyu's courtyard gate!
Lai Siyu’s head is in a mess!
This person clearly held a high position within the Qingyun Sect. Oh, and hadn't the old man told her he'd become the head chef of the outer sect's kitchen? Could it be that he relied on this person's connections? It had to be, otherwise how could such a lucrative position in the kitchen have landed him?
The six male and female disciples on the clouds bowed to the three people on the colorful clouds, and the tens of thousands of people in the square followed suit.
The leading man on the colorful cloud showed a satisfied look on his face. He raised his hands slightly, signaling everyone to stand up.
"Today is the day that Qingyun Sect opens its doors and recruits disciples. I, Tie Zhong, have been beloved by the elders and respected by the disciples. I am appointed the head of Qingyun Sect. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to everyone for their support and love for Qingyun Sect... I also hope that everyone will seize this opportunity. Next, Elder Sikong will announce the selection rules."
As soon as Tie Zhangmen finished speaking, the elderly man on his right behind him spoke expressionlessly, "Today's selection rules are the same as in previous years. Only cultivators under the age of seventeen who have reached the third level of Qi training will be selected. Everyone will undergo three rounds of assessment. Those who pass will become official members of Qingyun Sect. Among them, the top ten will directly enter the Qingyun Sect's inner sect to cultivate..."
Elder Sikong announced the start of the assessment. Six male and female disciples standing on clouds in the air immediately occupied the six corners of the square and pointed at the air together. Six beams of light shot out from their fingertips.
Six beams of light converged into a scorching sun in the center of the square, and a light curtain poured down from all around the sun, covering the tens of thousands of people in the square.
"Those who are over seventeen years old and whose cultivation level is less than the third level of Qi training will immediately step out of the light curtain, otherwise their life or death will be at their own risk!"
A male cultivator on the cloud said coldly.
After a few breaths, they saw that the nearly 10,000 people in the light shield had no intention of moving. The six people on the clouds muttered something and quickly changed complicated spells with their hands. For a moment, the light curtain was covered with white light, and the 10,000 people in the light curtain closed their eyes and covered their faces with their sleeves.
This light is clearly going to blind your eyes!
However, this dazzling white light did not last for a few breaths, and after the white light, there was endless darkness.
Lai Siyu found that the environment around her had changed. Not only was there no one around, but she was actually floating in the vast starry sky. It could be said to be a starry sky, but it was not quite like it. There was no light in the endless darkness, and there were no stars around, only motionless meteorites.
Lai Siyu has reached the fifth level of Qi training, so he can see things in the dark.
This perception of things in the dark is not based on vision, but on spiritual consciousness. Objects in the dark cannot escape the spiritual consciousness released by Lai Siyu, just like some fish in the deep sea that use sound waves to detect the surrounding environment.
Suddenly, a meteorite shot towards her. Lai Siyu was startled, but before she could react, she was hit by the meteorite.
What a terrifying speed! Even Lai Siyu, who has reached the fifth level of Qi training, cannot avoid it.
But the meteorite was like foam, shattering upon impact with Lai Siyu. A rainbow of light spread from the shattered meteorite. After the light faded, a beautiful lady sat on the bed, knitting a sweater with four bamboo sticks. Her hands moved swiftly, twisting the sticks as the thick, bright red yarn slowly became the sweater...
The woman's body was a little swollen, and her face was so swollen that her eyebrows and eyes were almost invisible.
There is a photo hanging on the head of the bed, which shows a simple man and a beautiful woman. It is a wedding photo, and the man and woman in the photo are smiling like flowers.
The sweater was ready, and the woman smiled and called out, "Yu'er."
A little girl about two or three years old ran into the house, threw herself into the woman's arms and called out "Mom!"
The woman smiled and compared the red sweater in front of the girl. The sweater was so long and big that the little girl was completely covered from head to toe, and she couldn't even see her figure.
The woman was very satisfied and murmured, "This sweater should be enough for you to wear when you are twelve... I just wonder if mom can knit you a sweater that you can wear when you are eighteen..."
"Mom..." Lai Siyu's eyes were filled with tears. She reached out her hand to touch the woman's face, but the image was shattered at this moment.
Her mother had uremia and lay in bed every day during her serious illness to knit sweaters for her. She had been knitting sweaters for her from the age of three to twelve. Every sweater and every stitch was filled with her mother's deep love and strong reluctance to part with her.
Then, another meteorite hit Lai Siyu. A year after her mother's death, her father remarried. She was short and round, with freckles all over her face. Her small eyes, like knives, swept over Lai Siyu like a knife...
"Siyu, call mom!" My father was wearing a dark blue Mao suit with a red flower on his chest and a happy smile on his face.
"She's not my mother." The little girl's mind flashed with her mother's beautiful face. She didn't understand what was wrong with her father, why would he let her call this ugly woman mother...
"Si Yu, be obedient. From today on, she is your mother!" the father scolded with a stern face.
The little girl was so scared that she started crying. She was just a 18-year-old girl. When her mother was around, her father had never been so mean to her. "Mom, where have you been? Why don't you want Siyu anymore?"
A trace of disgust flashed in the fat woman's eyes. She said to the man with a smile on her face: "Old Lai, don't scare her. Take your time."
Meteorites fell one after another, and the little girl who lived a hard life in the hands of her stepmother grew up day by day. Due to the instigation of her stepmother, her father became more and more cold towards her, until her younger brother was born, her father no longer paid attention to her.
The little girl had good academic performance. Perhaps because she was afraid that the neighbors would say that she was mistreating her stepdaughter, the fat woman actually let her finish high school.
Although her stepmother put all the housework on her, the little girl's grades were always the best in the class. In the year of the college entrance examination, she was admitted to the best university in the capital as she wished.
But the fat woman tore up the admission letter in front of her, and her father sat beside her smoking, without any intention of stopping her.
"Why would a girl go to university? Go learn to be a cook. Your brother will take the college entrance examination in two years. You have to help support your brother's schooling. Our family can't support you for so many years in vain..." the fat woman said coldly.
The girl looked at her father with complicated eyes. Her father threw the cigarette butt on the ground and stepped on it hard with his foot. Without looking at her, he just said, "Let's do it!"
