Chapter 7
Lin Xubai's smiling face froze. "I've been practicing with Uncle Lin in Buxugui and rarely come out. It's not unusual that Senior Brother has never seen me. However, I do recognize Senior Brother Chaosheng."
"Elder Xiong was here just now, and he was arguing with me and this Junior Sister Jiang. If I weren't a disciple, why would Elder Xiong defend me?"
As he said this, he flipped his wrist and took out the name tag of a Guiyuan Sect disciple from somewhere to verify his identity.
Jiang Wan quietly tiptoed and took a peek at the side, only to see the three words "Lin Xubai" on the name tag.
She recognized half of the character and matched it with the name of the protagonist in the screenshot, so she didn't find the wrong person.
He looked down at his name tag on his waist, and it felt a little different.
But, how could it be Fu Xiu?
Can a talisman practitioner cultivate the ruthless way?
Where is the sword cultivator you promised?
Although she was very surprised, Jiang Wan had no choice but to accept it since things had come to this. She calmed herself down while Lin Xubai and Senior Brother Chaosheng were talking.
The strong will not complain about the environment, they will only adapt to it.
If the mountain does not come to me, I will go to the mountain.
Jiang Wan acted immediately and quickly grabbed Lin Xubai again, "Hey! Is it too late for me to change to talisman cultivation now?"
Then he was decisively rejected by his senior brother who looked speechless.
"Beauty is harmful...Junior sister, you might as well follow me to Xiancang Peak to practice!" The newly appointed senior sister Liao Li walked over with her hand on her forehead helplessly.
"Is it okay?" Jiang Wan's eyes lit up again.
"You wish!" Liao Li's face darkened, and he poked Jiang Wan's forehead with a finger in annoyance, poking him back and bursting his inner delusion.
"Hey, you were the one who insisted on going to Songding Peak to learn swordsmanship just now... I clearly told you from the beginning that your decision cannot be changed and you must choose carefully, but you didn't listen at all!"
Jiang Wan scratched his head and looked away automatically: "Uh..."
Not only did she not listen at all just now, she also didn't listen at all before.
Senior Sister Liao Li, who had just received a lovely new junior sister, had a look of disappointment on her face. Moreover, she was in charge of all the new disciples this time. Now she finally saw a good seedling. If there was no problem, she would definitely be the backbone of their Songding Peak in the future.
"You are born with a sword bone, why don't you want to become a sword cultivator?"
"If you don't want to do it, then don't do it. Why are you cursing at me?" Jiang Wan curled his lips unhappily.
Liao Li: “???”
When did she curse?
No, now is not the time to talk about this.
"Anyway, forget it. You were born with a sword bone, so you're destined to be a sword cultivator."
Several senior brothers and sisters nearby looked at each other and felt troubled by this at the same time.
How could such a promising sword cultivator's mind be filled with love and romance?
Senior Sister Liao Li tried her best to persuade everyone, from Xie Hongfeng, the sword master of Songding Peak to the various powerful aspects of sword cultivators.
"The strongest of the One Saint and Two Alliances, Xingxuan Immortal Venerable, is our ancestor. If you enter Songding Peak, you might have the chance to meet the ancestor and receive his guidance. If you're lucky, you might even be accepted as his disciple!"
The tone of his voice sounded as if Jiang Wan could improve his swordsmanship and ascend to the upper realm as long as he entered Songding Peak.
Liao Li tried to impress her new apprentice sister with a big promise. What she didn't mention was that the ancestor was so mysterious that no one in the sect except the elders and the head had ever seen him. He was so elusive that no one knew whether he was in the sect, not to mention that he had said from the beginning that he would not accept any disciples.
Who doesn’t know that Xingxuan Immortal Venerable, who destroyed the Demonic Immortal Realm with one sword, is a sword cultivator?
It must be said that Jiang Wan's expression changed when he heard the familiar 'one saint and two alliances'.
Meet the...strongest man in the world?
Jiang Wan couldn't help but think of that little drop of water. She didn't say who had the murderous intention.
Lin Xubai: "Miss Jiang, you must have traveled through mountains and rivers, through countless hardships, to reach Guiyuan Sect. Now that you and I have joined the sect together, I believe we will have many opportunities to meet in the future. I know that you are just an acquaintance and inevitably rely on me. Everyone has different reasons for persisting in the great path of cultivation. Miss Jiang... what is your motivation?"
"Miss Jiang, you've come through so much hardship. Don't forget your original intention of coming to Guiyuan Sect because of other things..."
The folding fan closed and danced between Lin Xubai's fingers, and their eyes met again.
"Original intention..."
Jiang Wan nodded.
Indeed, I was almost led astray.
Jiang Wan tilted her head, caught between truth and lies.
She chose—
“I want to be with you!”
Jiang Wan looked at Lin Xubai with sincere eyes and serious tone.
"I want to be in the same sect with you!"
"If I don't have you, there's no point in me staying here!"
"You know, I came here for you!"
Lin Xubai, who was hit by continuous attacks: "......"
The disciples around them, who were pretending to be busy but actually listening silently, said: "!"
After being smeared with dog food, Liao Li, the evil senior sister who broke up the couple, was inexplicably turned into a villain: "......"
The elders who hid their figures and pretended to be passing by: "!!!"
This petite and cute new disciple seemed to have said something truly extraordinary...
"If it weren't for you, it would never happen!"
Jiang Wan looked at Lin Xubai with clear eyes, her dark eyes were sincere and pure.
I forgot, the amulet your mother left for you was given to you by me. I became your disciple while giving you the gift.
Lin Xubai's stiff smile was a little hard to maintain.
“Crack—”
The end of the fan handle in the palm of my hand shattered into ashes.
——
Weimingju——
The new disciples gathered in groups of three or four.
Jiang Wan, who was favored by all the senior sisters and brothers, was surrounded by no one, as if she was being excluded.
"I heard she has five spiritual roots. How could she be admitted to Guiyuan Sect with such poor qualifications?"
"You don't understand, right? I heard she was born with a sword bone and is a natural swordsman. This talent is rare in a thousand years. Even if she has five spiritual roots, it will not affect her sword practice at all. The senior sister from Song Ding Peak and the senior brother from Xian Cang Peak are vying for her."
"Tsk, this guy is really lucky! With the qualifications of five spiritual roots, he could only do menial work, but now he has made a leap to heaven and can join the Guiyuan Sect with us, and he has also won the favor of the brothers and sisters from Song Dingfeng."
"What's so good about being lucky? Don't look at her natural sword skills, but she's full of love. I don't think she'll get very far in the swordsmanship. Low-class people are low-class people. Even if they get an opportunity, they won't be able to grasp it. Sooner or later, they'll be reduced to their original form."
Without Jiang Wan knowing it herself, her name had already spread in a small circle in Guiyuan Sect.
Being excluded?
She is the one who is excluding others on her own, it's not like she is really here to learn skills or just play house.
The familiar dark blue flashed dimly in his deep eyes.
Wish them a sweet dream tonight.
"A lowly servant with only five spiritual roots is actually born with sword bones. How absurd!"
"Hey, who would have thought that this natural sword bone would fall into the hands of someone with five spiritual roots? Xiaoyu, don't overthink it. You are the eldest daughter of the Wuxiang League, and your talent is the best among the two leagues and seven sects. Not to mention Venerable Xie, you are even worthy of being a disciple of Xingxuan Immortal Venerable."
In the corner, the woman in green was comforting the woman in red next to her with a solemn look on her face.
Jiang Wan ignored the gossip of others, walked into the assigned room with a stern face, sat down on the couch, and supported his chin with worry.
She had made her determination so clear, but Senior Sister Liao Li took her away without saying a word, so she didn't even ask Lin Xubai for the address.
I don’t know how far Lin Xubai’s residence is from Weimingju.
"puff--"
Jiang Wan:?
Turning around, a gentle smile appeared before my eyes.
"Sorry, I didn't mean anything else. Although Songding Peak and Xiancang Peak are not close to each other, there is a teleportation array in Guiyuan Sect, so distance is not a problem. No need to look so sad. Let me introduce myself. My name is Bai Qingqing, which means light and fluttery."
"We have been assigned to the same courtyard. We will practice together in the future. I also want to enter Songding Peak." Bai Qingqing smiled and spread his bedding next to Jiang Wan. "Weiming Residence was newly built by Guiyuan Sect specifically for the new disciples. There are six people in each courtyard.
I heard that Guiyuan Sect won't accept any more disciples for the next hundred years, so this time is completely different from the past. After passing the entrance trial, everyone must stay in the outer sect for a year. Only after passing the assessment a year later can they enter the inner sect and be sent to different peaks. If they perform well in the assessment and gain the favor of the elders, they can be accepted as their personal disciples.
"Although you have five spiritual roots, you have special talents. Maybe you can win the favor of Master Xie Feng and become his disciple."
Seeing that there was no malice in Bai Qingqing's eyes, Jiang Wan did not refuse to talk to her: "Jiang Wan, Wan as in Wanhui."
Moreover, Bai Qingqing was very pretty, like a gentle lady from a noble family. She reminded her of her daughter, and Jiang Wan couldn't help but feel a bit of favor towards her.
"But with your unique qualifications, why don't you go to the Qiyao Sect?"
"Seven Stars Sect?"
"Yes, don't you know that one of the Three Lords, Tianji Sword Lord Su Yang, is from the Qiyao Sect?"
"Three gentlemen?" Jiang Wan murmured.
Was it her brother, the one who was at the bottom of the list, the Three Lords and Five Demons? Actually, she only knew the Five Demons, not the Three Lords.
Seeing that Jiang Wan obviously didn't know much, Bai Qingqing became interested.
“Although Guiyuan Sect’s Xie Fengzhu is also well-known, if we compare it to the other three, the Sword Lord is more well-known to everyone.
The Celestial Sword Master is Su Yang, the Yaoguang Lute Master is Su Shanhan, and the Hunyuan Medicine Master is Shi Wuhen. The Yaoguang Lute Master is from Sifangfang, a place where all the cultivators are female. The Hunyuan Medicine Master of Xuanyun Valley is the world's number one alchemy cultivator.
When talking about the Three Lords, one must also mention the Five Demons. Unlike the Three Lords, who have sects and schools, the other four demons, with the exception of the Heavenly Demon Lord, who is from the demon clan, do not have sects or territories.
"The Blood Demon, the Succubus Xunli, the Corpse Demon Minglian, and the Evil Demon Louzang—they move in secret. The last time the Blood Demon appeared, he devoured a city with a sea of blood, slaughtering tens of thousands of people."
"You, know so much." Jiang Wan tilted his head, and looked at Bai Qingqing with his dark round eyes, who spoke about these things as if they were all known by heart.
Bai Qingqing smiled brightly: "Well, this is something everyone in Beiyan Continent knows."
"By the way, what were those purple stones you took out in the city earlier? They look quite unusual." Bai Qingqing then turned to talk about what happened to Jiang Wan at the registration entrance. "Come to think of it, some people speculated back then that you were Miss Zhao from the Wuxiang League. But I recognize that Miss Zhao. Look, she's the one in red assigned to the same courtyard as us."
Jiang Wan did not answer Bai Qingqing's question, but just listened without saying anything. Bai Qingqing did not feel embarrassed, but instead talked incessantly about other things she knew.
With Jiang Wan as a good listener, Bai Qingqing spoke very enthusiastically.
It was not until nightfall that Bai Qingqing felt unsatisfied.
She is well-informed and beautiful, she must be the heroine.
"you,"
Jiang Wan stared straight at Bai Qingqing, causing her to lean sideways uncomfortably. "What's wrong?"
"You are so beautiful, so capable, and you know so much." Jiang Wan shook her head slightly.
If that's the case, I'll arrange a few more for you. I'll help you snatch people from the Young Talent List.
But now, business matters.
Jiang Wan planned to sneak out to look for someone while it was dark.
"Senior Sister Liao Li said during the day that the sect has strict rules and regulations. No one is allowed to enter or leave at night without permission. And do you know where to return?" Bai gently leaned over and lowered his voice to approach Jiang Wan. "Jiang Wan, are you really going to go? Are you looking for someone?"
"Oh, that's not the case. I'm going to steal someone."
"Cheating!!!" Bai Qingqing, who had been feeling depressed because he had been talking for too long, suddenly sat up excitedly.
