The Ninth Elder glanced at the blood-written letter and sneered, "My granddaughter has already been appreciated by the Venerable One, how could she be an imposter?"
The Ninth Elder glanced at Su Nian; her dantian was destroyed, and her bones were broken! She was barely clinging to life.
"Ugh! Ugh!" Su Nian tried to get up, but the blow she had just received had left her with no strength left.
She really is Su Nian! That bitch is impersonating her.
It's someone impersonating her!
But she couldn't speak; she was trembling with excitement.
"Bei Mo, since we can't get anything out of him, let's just deal with him." The Ninth Elder coldly shifted his gaze. "I will be in seclusion for a while, so you are in charge of handling these trivial matters."
"Yes, Elder." Bei Mo respectfully saw the Ninth Elder off.
"Mmm-mmm-mmm—"
Su Nian's eyes widened in disbelief. Why wouldn't her grandfather acknowledge her? That bitch was clearly the imposter, and she had hurt her so badly.
Despair enveloped Su Nian; even as a ghost, she would not let that bitch go.
As Bei Mo approached step by step, she was terrified and wanted to curl up into a ball.
"Su Nian."
Upon hearing this, a hint of joy flashed in the woman's eyes. She grabbed Bei Mo's sleeve; she was the granddaughter of a high-ranking elder and one of the most talented disciples on Heavenly Realm Island.
“I know it’s you.” Bei Mo crouched down. “The person who went to the temple was just an imposter. If I’m not mistaken, that was—the woman you wanted to kill that day, wasn’t it?”
Su Nian gripped Bei Mo's clothes tightly, as if she had grasped a lifeline.
Bei Mo recognized her; she wouldn't die! She wanted revenge, she wanted to grind that vile woman to dust.
“But right now, only she can be Su Nian.” Bei Mo continued, “Actually, the elders have already recognized you, but—a useless person with a destroyed dantian and a peerless genius, which is more important? Anyone with a brain knows how to choose.”
If the other elders found out that Su Nian was a cripple, the Ninth Elder's status would be in jeopardy, and he would be ridiculed by the other elders.
Su Nian's eyes widened, and she gripped Bei Mo's hand tightly. "Don't you like me? Help me, I don't want to die—"
"Junior Sister, I'm sorry, I had no choice." Bei Mo shook off Su Nian and ordered, "Execute her, and throw her body to feed the sea beasts."
"Ugh! Ugh! Ugh!" Su Nian twisted her body frantically, trying to grab Bei Mo, but the next second, she was lifted up by the guards—
His neck was broken.
——
The temple stands tall on Heavenly Realm Island, towering into the clouds and surrounded by mist. It is magnificent and imposing. With each step closer, the surrounding spiritual energy becomes more abundant.
Accompanying Jun Liuyue were two cultivators at the Spirit Venerable Realm, one male and one female.
"I didn't expect you to actually have some skills," Mo Wei sneered. She and Su Nian had always been at odds.
Although Mo Wei is stronger than Su Nian, she is a disciple selected from Canglan, while Su Nian is the granddaughter of an elder. Even if Su Nian's cultivation and talent are not as good as Mo Wei's.
He also outshone Mo Wei in every way!
"Mo Wei." Wen Cang tugged at Mo Wei and shook his head.
Mo Wei proudly raised her chin, "That's right. Her talent is all built up with elixirs and magic pills. What's so great about it?"
Normally, Su Nian would definitely jump up and fight Mo Wei.
But Su Nian just left.
Watching Su Nian's retreating figure, Mo Wei was astonished: "Has she gone mad? And what was that look in her eyes just now?!"
Looking down on someone? What right does Su Nian have? She lost to her in the competition two months ago! Isn't it just because she has an elder grandfather?
"What's so great about her! She must have consumed a lot of elixirs to break through this time! What a waste! If I had her resources, I would have ascended to immortality long ago."
"Say less. We finally won the last competition to qualify for cultivation in the temple. The Venerable One dislikes noise the most. If you displease the Venerable One, let's see how you handle it!" Wen Cang warned in a low voice.
Upon hearing this, Mo Wei shut her mouth, staring resentfully at Su Nian's retreating figure. Hmph! What good is the opportunity to cultivate in the temple if your cultivation level is built up with pills?
A lie is a lie. It may fool yourself, but if you try to fool others, you're just deceiving yourself.
Not far ahead, a magnificent palace came into view. Two lifelike blue dragons were wrapped around the outer half of the main hall, so realistic that they could be mistaken for real dragons at first glance.
However, strangely, the Azure Dragon's eyes are empty, without pupils!
Meeting those empty eyes, for some reason... a chill ran through my body in an instant.
Liu Yue withdrew her gaze. At that moment, an old man with a hunched back came out and took away the three people's tokens.
As soon as the temple doors were opened, a chilling aura rushed out.
"It's so cold." Mo Wei shivered. Logically speaking, someone who has cultivated to the Spirit Venerable Realm should not feel cold at all.
A sinister atmosphere pervaded the air.
An indescribable sense of eeriness filled the air. Upon entering the main hall, a magnificent statue came into view, depicting a gigantic beast with bared fangs and claws, somewhat resembling a Taotie or a Qiongqi...
In short, it was a creature that resembled nothing else, and it had gathered the ugliest features of every ferocious beast. With its gaping maw wide open, a pair of blood-red eyes stared straight at the three people in the hall, as if it were about to pounce and devour them at any moment.
The aura surrounding us isn't spiritual energy; it's more like malevolent energy!
This kind of place is the least suitable for spiritual practitioners to cultivate, as it is very easy for them to go astray and become possessed by evil spirits.
Jun Liuyue looked up and realized that her guess was right; there was something ghostly about Tianjing Island!
And these aren't ordinary ghosts! They worship ancient evil gods, yet they recruit the most talented disciples in the entire Canglan to cultivate here.
