There was a triumphant smile on Guiqi's face, and this time it was Muhuan's turn not to understand.
"Can you please stop laughing like that? I feel creepy!" Mu Huan did not hide his "disgust" towards Guiqi at all.
"You passed this first level easily, but the hard part is yet to come." Guiqi stroked his beard. He couldn't understand why Liang Ci had set such a difficult level for her. Indeed, from the moment Mu Huan stepped into the Youshan Mountains, every step was under Liang Ci's control.
"I can't tell you about the second level!" Guiqi looked at Mu Huan, feeling a bit of "sympathy" in his heart, but more of a desire to watch the fun. He wanted to see how outstanding the person Liang Ci chose was!
"Do I have to rely on myself to figure it out?!" Mu Huan had already prepared himself mentally, knowing that the assessment of the First Academy of Spiritual Cultivation would definitely not be easy, but he didn't expect it to be so bizarre that he had to find every level by himself.
"Then I don't know." Guiqi was a well-known old naughty boy. Seeing the expression on Mu Huan's face, he was extremely happy. However, as a senior, he still had to have self-awareness.
"Ahem, okay, I'll take you to where you want to go first." Before Mu Huan could come to his senses, they had already arrived at an unfamiliar place.
Looking around, he saw a magnificent hall. The two rows on the left and right were actually statues of the eight legendary guardian gods. But what surprised Mu Huan the most was that although there were gods on the left and right, the one on the top was not a god, but more accurately, a ghost statue.
From a distance, it was actually quite eerie. Suddenly, all the lights went out, leaving the empty space with the occasional strange noise.
At this time, Guiqi had returned to the viewing platform of Youshan Academy. He came to Liangci's side, looked at the image projected in the air, and couldn't help but teasingly said, "You are so cruel! You dare to give her the temple's assessment!"
Liang Ci automatically ignored Guiqi's words, without saying a word, just staring at the projected image. Some things still needed to be resolved as soon as possible.
in the temple
Mu Huan closed her eyes. The surrounding darkness made her feel uneasy, as if something was about to break out. She seemed to be afraid of the dark, but she didn't know where this fear came from. Furthermore, the ghost statue across from her felt strangely familiar.
"Could it be because of you?" Mu Huan's murmur was very soft, like a breeze blowing by, leaving no trace.
I was starting to feel uncomfortable, but it was too early for that arrogant woman to come out. "We have to find out what's going on here!"
Standing up, Mu Huan slowly walked forward. She had a feeling that all the discomfort came from that strange ghost sculpture.
Almost instantly, a strong gust of wind came over. Mu Huan quickly sensed it and dodged it. Almost at the same moment, the projection of the assessment space where Mu Huan was located was instantly extinguished.
Liang Ci stood up suddenly. That woman, how dare she! In an instant, Liang Ci disappeared from the spot, leaving the assessment elders staring in disbelief.
"What happened? Why was the Seventh Elder so impulsive that he actually broke into the assessment space!" The speaker was the Third Elder Xuan Ran, who had always been at odds with Liang Ci.
"Oh, didn't you see that there was a problem with that student's assessment space? The Seventh Elder is also considering the overall situation!" Guiqi and Liang Ci are friends regardless of age, so he naturally excused Liang Ci's impulsiveness.
"You!" Xuan Ran was helpless. After all, all the students who came here were outstanding from aristocratic families, and it would be difficult for Youshan to explain if something happened.
"Who are you?" Mu Huan looked at the woman in red who suddenly appeared in front of him. It was she who attacked him just now. Could she be the part of this assessment?
"You, don't you know me?" The woman in red was actually Xi Ling, the current Ghost Lord.
"Should I know you, big sister?" Mu Huan couldn't help rolling his eyes. Why did he meet weirder people when he came to take the assessment himself?
"It's been a thousand years, and even if you've changed your core, you're still so smooth-talking? I'd like to see how much you've improved in the past thousand years!" With a ruthless expression on his face, he stretched out his hand and took out his weapon from the void.
Looking at the sheng in the woman's hand, "Ha, we bumped into each other." A blood-red konghou suddenly appeared in Mu Huan's hand, but Mu Huan was not sure if he could match it, but he could still make her suffer some injuries.
"I couldn't beat you a thousand years ago, but I will kill you a thousand years later, and make sure that no red spider lilies will bloom again in the ghost world." Xi Ling's eyes were filled with hatred for Mu Huan, and the movements of his hands became crazy.
The sheng, which should have been a pleasant and melodious sound, now sounded like a deadly, lascivious sound, shaking Mu Huan so much that he felt pain all over his body. But Mu Huan always had a stubborn attitude.
"I thought you were so strong, but you're just a sound controller." She wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and put the guzheng on the ground. "Today, I will teach you how to be a good person."
Mu Huan's ten fingers kept moving on the strings, but there was no sound at all.
"Hahaha, what's wrong? Is your piano broken?" Xi Ling sneered. It was indeed the same as it was a thousand years ago, just as unpresentable.
"You're so proud now, do you think you've won?" Mu Huan sneered. The world only knows about sound recorders, and all they understand is that the training of sound recorders and sound controllers is the same, the only difference being the name. But they don't know...
Mu Huan's hands moved faster and faster. The remnants of the sound attack that had just come from the sheng slowly came together and turned into the complex sound on the konghou, heading straight towards Xi Ling.
Xi Ling was caught off guard and was knocked back a long step. "Puff!" Looking at the blood, Xi Ling went crazy. "Hahahaha, hahahaha." In all the years since he succeeded to the throne of Ghost King, he had never seen blood. As expected.
Looking at Mu Huan across from him, Xi Ling said, "If I don't get rid of you today, there will be endless troubles in the future." He put away his laziness and said, "I really can't take you lightly when dealing with you."
He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth vigorously and smeared it on the sheng. "Actually, we didn't have to go this far! Who told you to show up again, and appear next to that person?"
When the sheng in Xi Ling's hand touched blood, it made a sound completely different from the usual one, like a shrill evil ghost struggling in hell.
Just as Xi Ling was about to unleash his ultimate move, Liang Ci arrived. He stood before Mu Huan in an absolutely protective manner, and because of the large size of his robe, he completely covered the petite Mu Huan.
"Master!" Mu Huan's surprised voice rang out. Hahaha, old woman, my beautiful master is here. Mu Huan, who was already fearless, was now even more confident.
The sparkling eyes were fixed on Liang Ci, and Liang Ci could feel the burning gaze without turning around.
