Chapter 11
Can he say that he has almost spent all his spirit stones recently?
Tu Changxing tried to defend himself: "Junior Sister Jiang has a cold exterior but a warm heart. Although she behaves a little unruly... and has a quirky personality, she is actually a very simple person." She is so simple that as long as she thinks you are a good person, she will believe whatever you say.
Just like Huo Xiangqi clearly took out various elixirs and distributed them to everyone because Zhao Yu was arrogant and looked down on talent. Anyone with a discerning eye could see it, but Jiang Wan really believed the reasons Huo Xiangqi made up.
Jiang Wan is so deceptive. Beneath her cold appearance lies a fiery vitality.
The delicate face is like a puppet doll, and the big watery eyes are staring at you. It’s just a small thing, who would have the heart to refuse!
Then all those who thought this way were tricked by Jiang Wan.
When I came back to my senses and wanted to find someone to settle the score, I looked at those innocent big eyes and hesitated again. Besides, they were already in the Law Enforcement Hall, and they had volunteered. What else could I do? I could only forget it. At worst, I wouldn't jump into the trap.
Anyway, they didn't lose anything and just got a bargain for free.
Tu Changxing was an exception. He felt that as Song Dingfeng's future senior, he had the responsibility to take care of this simple and talented junior sister.
As a considerate and good junior sister, Huo Xiangqi of course understood the reason and readily agreed. Only then did Tu Changxing leave.
"Hmph! He's nothing but a liar full of lies. Naive? Are these people blinded by beauty?" An indignant voice appeared beside Huo Xiangqi, completely ignoring the senior sisters who were also dragged into the trap.
The people who came were wearing the same uniform of their sect, but all the jewelry and accessories from head to toe were top-level spiritual weapons.
Huo Xiangqi: "Xiaoyu."
"Are the elders of Guiyuan Sect blind to let that kind of person join them?" Zhao Yu glanced at the Guiyuan Sect's main hall standing above the sea of snow and clouds with arrogance and disdain. "With five spiritual roots, he is only fit to be a servant." The sarcasm in her eyes was extremely blatant.
If she hadn't come to Guiyuan Sect for other important matters, Guiyuan Sect would have changed its past behavior.
Zhao Yu had already returned to the Wuxiang League.
She didn't know where the Immortal Xingxuan was. For the past half month, she had traveled to all the halls and peaks in the name of cultivation, and had visited all the places such as the Trial Tower and the Library. She even met the Sect Master many times, but she had not found any existence like the Immortal Xingxuan.
Zhao Yu couldn't help but feel annoyed.
Huo Xiangqi, on the other hand, looked nervous upon hearing this. She quickly looked around and was relieved to find that they were the only two around. She advised, "Although Junior Sister Jiang has five spiritual roots, her talent in swordsmanship is unmatched, and the senior brothers and sisters of Song Dingfeng all have a fondness for her. Although she has a lively and unruly personality, these are all harmless little things." Otherwise, it would be more than just copying as punishment.
Huo Xiangqi knew Zhao Yu disliked Jiang Wan. From the first day of her formal initiation, Jiang Wan had stolen the limelight that should have belonged to Zhao Yu. There were many disciples of Guiyuan Sect whose qualifications and backgrounds were inferior to Zhao Yu's, but Zhao Yu only disliked Jiang Wan.
"After Guiyuan Sect accepts this disciple, there will be no more entrance trials for the next hundred years."
Zhao Yu knew that this was Huo Xiangqi's subtle advice to her to get along well with other disciples. She swallowed the sarcastic words on her lips and snorted.
Huo Xiangqi was not angry even though she was treated coldly many times, and the smile on her face remained unchanged.
For the past month, Zhao Yu has been keeping an eye on people and never giving others a good face, while she is making friends and chatting with other female disciples.
Unlike Huo Xiangqi who is very keen on making friends, Zhao Yu does not want to lower her status and deal with people whose status and even cultivation are far inferior to hers.
Zhao Yu didn't want to listen, and threw a disgusted look at Huo Xiangqi: "If you can't speak, shut up and get out."
Huo Xiangqi knew that Zhao Yu would not listen to her words, so she left immediately without staying in front of Zhao Yu to annoy her.
"A small matter? Her existence is a big matter. A mere five spiritual roots can win the secret care of an elder just by relying on that face, why?!" How could she, the eldest lady of the Wuxiang League, be inferior to that miscellaneous cultivator with five spiritual roots!
Zhao Yu was furious and kicked the tree nearby several times but still felt unsatisfied. "Bitch!"
"Shuashua——"
Leaves are falling.
"Well...what happened? You are a new disciple, and this is your first time accepting a sect mission. Did you accidentally accept a mission that you cannot complete?" An ordinary-looking man asked in surprise.
Zhao Yu frowned and looked cold, not wanting to pay any attention.
"Could it be that he accidentally accepted the Yellow-level mission to seek assistance in Yongshu Township?" The man feigned surprise. "Although the Yongshu Township mission appears to be Yellow-level, in reality, no disciple who took it has returned yet. It's considered a Heaven-level mission. It's said that even a senior brother in the Spiritual Transformation Stage was killed."
"Spirit Transformation Stage?" Zhao Yu didn't want to pay attention to it, but the young man's words really piqued her interest.
"Yes, because even a senior brother in the Spiritual Transformation Stage was killed, this mission, which appears to be Yellow Level but is actually Heaven Level, has been shelved and no one has taken it. After all, it's a mission with no survivors." The man nodded. "I thought it had been withdrawn, but it turns out it hasn't. Wouldn't it be easy for a Qi Refining Stage disciple to mistakenly take it? This could be fatal. If you take it, you'd better withdraw quickly."
"Oh no, I almost missed the time!" The man left in a hurry, leaving a message to remember to check out.
"Mission." Zhao Yu, who had always had a cold face, smiled for the first time. "A yellow level of the heavenly level..."
Zhao Yu turned around and walked quickly towards Lanri Pavilion.
The man who disappeared from sight turned into a piece of paper in an empty corner and eventually burned to ashes.
Lin Xubai: "There's nothing wrong with being peacefully bored..."
"Fate..." His fingers tapped unconsciously on the handle of the fan, "Indeed...it's fate."
You came to me with lies, and I filled your lies with false cooperation. How can this not be considered fate?
Such fate is too false and superficial, and it can be broken with just a slight poke.
I thought it was a fish in the pond, but it turned out to be a cat disturbing the water.
Perhaps because time has passed, he suddenly remembered the person who caused trouble in Guiyuan Sect many years ago.
Come to think of it, it's a coincidence that he is also a sword cultivator and has some connection with "outsiders".
That year, the green water mirror was frozen for thousands of miles, and frost covered the ground.
"Grandfather! Please save Ying!"
The man knelt heavily on his knees and kowtowed on the icy Star Pool. His sword, which was once intimidating, was casually thrown aside.
"Have you thought about it? She is a demon. Humans and demons are on different paths."
"Disciple knows that although she is a demon, she has never hurt anyone." The man forced a smile on his pale face. "Cultivating immortals is about going against the tide. Different paths? For both of us and for her, I must achieve the same destination!"
Thinking of the swordsman who had always been cold and stern in the past, Lin Xubai sighed.
The gentle eyes were now obscure and filled with dark currents. The gentle and elegant temperament that was usually there was no longer there, leaving only a thousand cold rays.
"Stay away, everyone, stay away."

"Junior Sister Jiang!" Huo Xiangqi trotted along, panting. "I finally found you!"
When Huo Xiangqi found Jiang Wan, she was practicing the twelve introductory sword techniques on Pingwutai. Point means collapse, stab means rush, sweep means madness, chop means chop, and twist means drill.
Jiang Wan gracefully made a sword flower gesture and ended the move: "Looking for me?"
"There's no time to talk. This is a mission assigned to you by the Lanri Pavilion. Time is running out, so get going!"
"Ah? Mission?" Jiang Wan looked at the mission scroll stuffed into his hand with a confused look on his face. "But I..."
"Don't say buts, there's no time left. You need to leave quickly, right now. Yongshu Township is a long way away!" Huo Xiangqi pushed the person away and stuffed a storage bag into Jiang Wan's arms. "Here, there are spirit stones in it. All disciples who have received missions outside the sect have them. Hurry up! They are urging us to leave!"
Jiang Wan, who suddenly got a windfall: "?!!"
