Chapter 6
"The secret is—"
"He doesn't wash his feet before going to bed."
Elder Xiong: “!!!”
"puff--"
"Bang——"
Lin Xubai laughed so hard that he leaned back against the tree trunk.
Several disciples covered each other's mouths tightly and quickly thought of the saddest things in their lives.
Elder Xiong: A Bolt from the Blue.JPG
He opened his mouth, but couldn't make a sound for a long time.
Lin Xubai used a half-open fan to cover the lower half of his face, leaned half his body towards Jiang Wan, and asked in a low voice that everyone present could hear, "Are you really not going to wash?"
As he spoke, he looked at Elder Xiong with an innocent yet disbelieving look.
"Yes." Jiang Wan said firmly and in a loud voice.
“Hahahaha——” Lin Xubai shook the fan in his hand.
Elder Xiong, who was affirmed again, felt tinnitus and dizziness.
It was as if a bolt of lightning struck his brain, his strong muscles trembled, and the sky suddenly fell.

It was miserable, with thunder and lightning.
"Oh, Elder Xiong is from Yongling Peak." Lin Xubai explained to Jiang Wan seriously, "Yongling Peak is where demons cultivate. I think they are influenced by their original form, so it's normal for their cultivation habits to be different from those of humans. After all, Elder Xiong's last name is Xiong."
A pair of smiling peach blossom eyes turned back to Jiang Wan in front of her, and there seemed to be a hint of expectation in her eyes.
Hearing this, Jiang Wan turned his gaze away in surprise: "Ah? Doesn't that mean he not only doesn't wash his feet, but he also doesn't take a bath?"
So scruffy? Scruffy Bear?
Lin Xubai: "Hahahaha!"
Elder Xiong was shocked.JPG, Elder Xiong couldn't believe it.JPG, Elder Xiong...his eyes were blank and he fell to the ground...
Let him die, he shouldn't live!
Elder Xiong, whose face flushed with shame and anger, could not stay even for a second. He covered his face and ran away in despair, not caring about etiquette.
Jiang Wan frowned: "I haven't... why are you running?"
'He fell before I could even make a move?'
Jiang Wan looked at Lin Xubai in confusion.
"Hmm." Lin Xubai chuckled and nodded. "Elder Xiong is very busy, and he is also the Trial Elder responsible for the important task of assessing the new disciples. He must have something important to deal with, so he left in a hurry."
Hearing this, Jiang Wan looked at Lin Xubai with even kinder eyes. What a nice person he was, even helping others to smooth things over.
Lin Xubai turned his wrist slightly and tried to pull it away from Jiang Wan's hand. He tried once, but it didn't move. He tried again, but it didn't move at all.
Lin Xubai smiled: "Girl?"
Jiang Wan suddenly realized and reluctantly let go of his hand.
"Judging from the young lady's expression, she seems to have something important to tell you, but..." Lin Xubai paused in his lazy, drawn-out tone, his gaze slowly shifting towards the direction of the crowd, "It seems the trial has begun."
"Hey!" Jiang Wan quickly turned around and found that the crowd had gone far away. It turned out that the trial had begun.
Jiang Wan was annoyed. She was so focused on finding someone that she completely forgot about the trial!
There was no choice but to leave a message "wait for me" and quickly run towards the trial circle.
After all, it took quite a while, and she was the last one to enter the trial.
The entrance test of Guiyuan Sect is not difficult. As long as you can walk through the Road of Questioning the Heart and go all the way up the mountain, you can pass it.
The Road of Questioning the Heart, as the name suggests, is a road to temper the heart, and only those with firm beliefs can pass it.
Jiang Wan's steps were light, and her whole body was filled with joy. Just kidding, even though she had changed into the appearance of a low-level trainee magician, she was still a full-level legendary magician at heart. This miasma road was a piece of cake.
Besides, Jiang Wan has found the person now. Judging from what happened just now, she successfully ruined the plot of the reunion of the hero and heroine in the story, and she is in a good mood at the moment.
"So, the ancestor is very optimistic about this female cultivator?" Fu Bingqiao subconsciously moved closer to the specially divided water mirror.
Above the hall, countless water mirror images appeared like pieces of broken mirrors.
Each mirror is a picture of a different trial-taker.
They also witnessed Jiang Wan's failed attempt to molest a "disciple" in the sect.
Fu Bingqiao looked carefully and clenched the pill bottle in her hand: "Could it be that the ancestor wants to accept a disciple?" In fact, she herself did not believe it.
If the ancestor had not revealed himself on his own initiative, not even the sect leader who had reached the Mahayana stage, or even all the people in the Guiyuan Sect combined, would have been able to see through the ancestor's deception, let alone find him.
What's more, although the ancestor is a peaceful person, he never shows up easily. The elders like them rarely see each other for a year or five years. Today, he actually appeared in front of this uninitiated girl!
Everyone was puzzled.
Yan Qu shook his head: "It shouldn't be. If the ancestor wanted to accept a disciple, why would he do this? He could just accept him as his disciple directly. How could we stop him?"
Not only did he deny this, but everyone present felt that if he really intended to take in a disciple, given the ancestor's usual prudent style, he would definitely not do something as ridiculous as pretending to be a newcomer and sneaking into the trial.
"Then why do you think so?"
"Ahem." The Guiyuan Sect's head pretended to cough twice and passed it over. "Don't make wild assumptions. The ancestor has his own intentions. But this woman is indeed extraordinary."
"She doesn't seem to be affected by these miasma." Zhong Sizhu concluded after a careful observation, his face not looking good. "This doesn't look like an ordinary 'human'..."
As soon as the conclusion came out, all the elders present couldn't help but show a hint of vigilance and suspicion in their eyes.
Only high-level cultivators are unaffected by the Path of Self-Searching.
At the same time, everyone's faces darkened.
The moment Jiang Wan came out of the Road of Inquiry with ease, she saw the vicious elder who had been angered by her before a trial, standing not far away and glaring at her with resentment.
Jiang Wan: “…”
My good mood disappeared in an instant.
The disciples of Guiyuan Sect who were registering their disciple name tags were confused by the strange atmosphere between the two people. Some even looked at Jiang Wan warily, as if she would tear off her disguise and attack in the next second.
Although they were nervous, many people were also very curious and couldn't help but pay some attention.
For a moment, Jiang Wan became the focus of everyone's attention.
Everyone is waiting for the final test, Elder Bear's talent survey.
——"Eliminate evil and eliminate evil", it can reflect all the evil and demonic spirits.
"No matter what means they use, all evil cultivators and demons will be exposed."
Fang Qian’s warning seemed to ring in his ears.
"Nowhere to hide?"
When passing by Elder Xiong, Jiang Wan smiled at him provocatively, and walked slowly past Elder Xiong while humming an unknown tune with great confidence and arrogance.
"Eliminate evil and eliminate evil"? It sounds like it can definitely catch a demon cultivator, but what does this have to do with her being a magician?
There is a barrier between magic and cultivation. Are you using cultivation tools to measure your magic value?
Sorry, [system incompatible].
The entrance test of Guiyuan Sect is as easy as pie.
Jiang Wan raised her chin slightly with pride.
Xiong Yuankui's face was gloomy, but when his eyes suddenly met the young man with a warm smile in the distance, his eyes instantly became aggrieved and pitiful.
However, thanks to his well-trained muscles, he doesn't look aggrieved or pitiful at all.
Lin Xubai raised the corners of his lips slightly, and drew circles on the handle of the fan with his fingers. Invisible white light merged into the sunlight from under his fingertips. He looked away, as if he couldn't see the meaning in Elder Xiong's eyes.
Elder Xiong had no place to vent his grievances, so he turned his accusing gaze towards the culprit. He held his breath in defiance and concentrated on circulating the spiritual energy in his body to display his innate magical powers.
However, until his ancestor turned the folding fan with one hand, nodded at him with a smile and left, his face flushed red, and nothing happened.
His face became even uglier.
Watching Jiang Wan in the water mirror safely pass through Elder Xiong’s innate magical powers and register for her name tag.
The expressions of several people in the hall did not ease.
But soon, the figure of another person in the water mirror broke the suspicion.
They watched helplessly as the girl happily ran towards the "disciple" whom they had previously attempted to molest.
The gentle young man had a faint smile on his face. He was nodding in agreement with the girl's words in the previous second, and the next second, his smiling eyes suddenly looked straight at the elders in front of the water mirror.
Everyone gasped.
The young man moved the handle of his fan slightly.
The next moment, the water mirror completely shattered and disappeared.
"Forget it. Since the ancestor is here, we don't have to worry. Let this girl... go with her." The leader stroked his long beard and decisively kicked the person out of the suspect list.
"If you have any you'd like to take under your wing, that's fine. If not, then we'll stick to the original plan."
Fu Bingqiao, Yan Qu and the others looked at Shui Jing indifferently and said in unison, "Yes."
——
"Look, is it yours?"
Jiang Wan stretched out his hand towards Lin Xubai, palm facing up.
A black prism whose material is unknown, which can be held tightly in a small palm. It is covered with layers of slender tubular structures. The stone core wrapped inside is black with a hint of red, like a heart.
Looking at the "token" that Jiang Wan took out, Lin Xubai raised his eyebrows and took it. His eyes inadvertently swept over Jiang Wan before focusing on the prism in his hand.
Stroking the unknown patterns, Lin Xubai instantly changed his expression to one of regaining something and said thankfully, "I thought I had lost it! It's very important to me. Thank you, Miss Jiang."
"You're welcome." Jiang Wan waved his hand nonchalantly, glancing to the side. "I've promised to be loyal to the person who entrusted me with this. I'll do it."
It has to be said that Lin Xubai has a good-looking face. Jiang Wan was stunned for a moment when she saw this face, not to mention that this face was smiling at her so gently.
The reason Jiang Wan took out the "token" was that he was entrusted to return it to a disciple named Lin from Song Dingfeng of Guiyuan Sect.
As for who it was and why that person had this thing in his hands, I just didn't know. I was completely clueless.
She helped find someone to deliver the things because she was grateful for saving her life and because she wanted to become a disciple of Guiyuan Sect.
Because I don’t know much, I don’t know the name of the person I’m looking for. I only know that his surname is Lin.
Jiang Wan was not worried that Lin Xubai would be suspicious, because this "token" itself was real.
This is a relic left to her eldest nephew, the male protagonist, by her sister whom she has never met, and it also serves as a talisman.
According to the timeline, his original prism had exhausted its power and disappeared, but the male protagonist didn't know and thought he had lost it accidentally.
This is the companion prism unique to the Sky Demon Clan, so Jiang Wan dared to use his own to impersonate it.
Indistinguishable from the real thing.
Jiang Wan adhered to the principle that the more she spoke, the more mistakes she made. When she spoke to Lin Xubai, she would never make final statements. She spoke in very general terms, obviously leaving room for herself.
Fortunately, Lin Xubai did not doubt what Jiang Wan said at all, and sometimes he would even fill in some loopholes in Jiang Wan's words for her.
From a perspective that Lin Xubai couldn't see, Jiang Wan let out a breath quietly.
The nephew in the early stage is so easy to deceive...
It’s a good thing it was her. If it was someone else, who knows what kind of deception they would have suffered.
Jiang Wan suddenly felt that her decision to come and find her eldest nephew was absolutely the right one.
Anyway, I will be cheated by those righteous red-name people in the future, so it’s better to be cheated by her.
Although she is not a good person, she is not a bad person either.
"I also chose Songding Peak. Senior Sister Liao Li said that my physique is special and very suitable for practicing swordsmanship! From now on, we will practice together on Songding Peak!"
With her guarding him closely at Songding Peak, I don’t believe he can still fall in love with the heroine.
For sword cultivators, ruthlessness is standard.
Nephew, what's the good of being in love? You can only date one person. If you practice the ruthless way, how can you date many people?
For the first time, Jiang Wan felt that the ruthless way was a really good thing.
Lin Xubai shook his head: "No, I am a talisman cultivator disciple of Xiancang Peak."
Jiang Wan: “?!!”
What! That scumbag didn't even let his nephew become a sword cultivator?
Next to him, the silent male disciple was about to take the new disciple back to the main peak. Upon hearing Lin Xubai's words, he frowned and immediately spoke up, "I am a disciple of Xiancang Peak. I have never seen you before. No, you are not a disciple of our Guiyuan Sect."
"No, who are you?"
After he finished speaking, his expression immediately changed, with obvious wariness and suspicion in his eyes.
Jiang Wan immediately turned to look at Lin Xubai:???
Their eyes met.
Lin Xubai smiled.
For a moment, the air seemed to freeze.
