The top of Yuqu Mountain is shrouded in clouds and mist all year round, and a powerful formation prevents people from going up. Only occasionally can you hear the cry of a phoenix.
Xihe was unable to practice because of the noise on the first night. He was angry and wanted to find the culprit to settle the score. When he opened the door, he saw many disciples looking up at the entangled dragon and phoenix divine lights in the sky with obsessed expressions.
she:? ? ?
"You haven't heard of it, have you? This is a privilege only available to Yuqu Palace disciples. They can hear the true immortal music."
"It's said to be a phoenix that only existed in ancient times. The Palace Master brought it back from the Abyss Battlefield a thousand years ago. He fed it with his essence and blood every day to revive it." He said excitedly, "This may be the last phoenix in the world!"
Xihe looked at the disciple beside him who was explaining himself in surprise: "...How did you know?"
The young disciple glanced at her with disdain: "Don't pretend, I know you are afraid that I will take away your job as a fairy servant. Everyone living here thinks the same as you, but!"
He casually spread out his folding fan and said, "I am the brother of the headmaster, I have a strong backer, you can't compete with me!"
Xihe was puzzled: "But I came here to worship Venerable Moyu as my master."
"Tsk, that's the same excuse I used back then. But being a disciple of a venerable master is not as fun as personally caring for an ancient phoenix." The young disciple frowned at her. "You're such a boring person! I've already told you everything, and you're still hiding it."
Xihe: ...There is actually such a strange thing in Yuqu Palace.
Fortunately, this situation does not happen often, and most of the male and female protagonists stay quietly in the palace and do not affect others.
From then on, Xihe stayed in Yuqu Mountain. He would get up in the morning and go to the preaching hall to learn Taoism from a group of young people. He would eat in the dining hall at noon, and in the afternoon he would practice in the cave or travel around with Xu Fu.
Oh, Xu Fu is the magical little disciple with a round, energetic face.
After they started talking that day, he started to approach her and play with her, saying that he would take her to visit the entire Yuqu Palace!
The head of the sect also paid close attention to her and sent disciples from time to time to remind her to practice and not to waste her excellent talent.
Xihe always responded with a smile, but one, two, and three months passed.
Her cultivation level still didn't improve, and the headmaster finally couldn't help asking about the situation.
Xihe did not hide anything and told the headmaster about his inability to store spiritual energy. The headmaster investigated but found nothing. He then called in several elders, but they were also puzzled.
Sect Leader: ... personally go to the top of Yuqu Mountain and ask Venerable Moyu to check it out. After all, these are the best seedlings, so don't delay.
So the person who had refused to accept a disciple and never showed up finally condescended to show up. He was indeed aloof and extraordinary, like an immortal walking out of a painting.
He only glanced at it lightly, and uttered five words from his thin lips: "Jackdaw's body is leaky."
Leader: ???
Mo Yu frowned, and spoke sparingly: "With the worst physique, no matter how talented one is, one will only be able to reach the foundation building stage in their lifetime."
The headmaster widened his eyes and subconsciously looked at the other elders. The elders were also confused. How could such a good seedling suddenly become the one with the worst physique?
Mo Yu didn't care about all this. After he finished speaking, he slipped away from the hall.
The hall fell into silence. The head elder no longer looked at Xihe with kindness, but with regret and entanglement.
Venerable Mo Yu is the most gifted and accomplished person in the world of cultivation, having lived for thousands of years. What he says is basically the truth, so...
Xihe opened his eyes, his eyes clearly divided into black and white. "Master, does that mean I have to leave Yuqu Mountain?"
The Sect Leader felt embarrassed when his intention was seen through, and he was too embarrassed to say what he was about to say. Otherwise, if outsiders knew that they drove people away after discovering that they did not have natural spiritual roots, how would they view it?
"No need. Yuqu Palace is not without disciples with low qualifications. You can rest assured to stay, but you can only be in the outer sect. Do you have any objection?" Since he is a disciple with no future, there is no need to waste resources.
Although the outer gate and the inner gate are only one word apart, the cultivation resources and the spiritual energy of the cave are different.
Xihe lowered his head: "Disciple has no objection, thank you, Master."
-
When they were moving, Xu Fu came to see them off and scratched his head awkwardly: "I didn't expect you really came to take the Venerable as your teacher... But don't give up. Although natural talent is important, there have been people who have made a comeback throughout history. You have to believe in yourself!"
Xihe: "...Thank you, I'm leaving."
Xu Fu quickly followed: "After all, we know each other. I'll take you there."
-
The spiritual energy in the outer sect is indeed thin. Practicing for a whole night is not as good as practicing for an hour in the inner sect. Even Gouzi is worried.
Xihe had no complaints, after all, this was the expected result. However, she still found a job tending to the medicinal fields to earn spirit stones, but she did not expect to encounter obstacles.
"Heh, I thought I could fly onto a tree branch, but I didn't expect that a pheasant is just a pheasant and can never turn into a phoenix."
"I will give you one more chance to be my maid. Otherwise, don't blame me for not remembering our past friendship. You should know that you are no longer valuable. No one will care whether you live or die!"
Whenever Zhao Tong thought about how she saw him humiliating herself in the hall three months ago, he couldn't stop wanting to torture her.
He sneered repeatedly: "I'll count to one, two, three. Don't force me to do anything! One, two..."
Xihe sighed: "I wanted to let you go so that we could all live in peace from now on, but you insisted on provoking me."
Zhao Tong sneered: "But after being arrogant for a few days, he became stubborn, ah!"
Xihe stared at him intently, his immense spiritual consciousness overwhelming him, squeezing into his sea of consciousness and leaving a soul mark! Zhao Tong screamed and fell to the ground. The next second, his expression suddenly froze, and he knelt stiffly, "Master."
Xihe said nonchalantly: "Yeah."
The dog was surprised: "You have this trick?" and immediately recognized his master!
