As soon as Jiang Lusheng showed up, Ji Cheng felt alarm bells going off in his heart. Even from a man's perspective, he had to admit that this senior brother was very handsome. What was even more charming was his nonchalant and otherworldly temperament.
Standing in the huge crowd, he seemed to have his own barrier. People around him didn't dare to get too close, and a piece of open space naturally appeared next to him.
But Lan Shuang went in, stepped on the open space, and asked with a smile: "Brother, are you here to help?"
Jiang Lusheng smiled and nodded at her, as gentle as the sunshine in March.
"Senior Brother?" Ji Cheng looked at Lan Shuang in surprise. "Sister Lan, are you a disciple of the Wangxu Sect?"
"I'm not one yet." Lan Shuang whispered, "I need to pass the assessment before I can become a formal disciple."
"So that's how it is."
Ji Cheng looked at Lan Shuang with increasing eagerness. "Then you should be able to pass it easily, right? I'm not sure. If I fail this time, I'll have to go back and inherit the throne. I really don't want to be emperor."
After he finished speaking, he sighed aggrievedly.
Lan Shuang: “…”
She didn't expect that even after entering the world of immortal cultivation, she would still encounter Versailles.
Just as Ji Cheng was about to speak, Jiang Lusheng suddenly said, "The people in front have already entered the formation. It's your turn soon. Are you ready?"
Ji Cheng: "Brother, can you give us some advice? What's it like inside? Is it dangerous?"
"No, the formation in the first level is not dangerous. It mainly tests your character and understanding."
Jiang Lusheng looked at Lan Shuang and his tone softened instantly. "Relax, just do whatever you want after you go in."
"Okay, thank you, Senior Brother. Can I see you when I come out?"
"Why do you ask?" Jiang Lusheng was puzzled.
Lan Shuang smiled and said, "Because the first person I saw after I figured it out was my senior brother."
After saying this, it was their turn to go in. Before Jiang Lusheng could react, Lan Shuang had already left.
He was left standing there with his heart pounding.
…
The so-called formation is actually a circle drawn on the ground. The one hundred people who are called go in and find a place to sit down. When everyone is seated and closes their eyes, they will enter the formation together.
When Lan Shuang opened her eyes, she found herself in a mess, surrounded by pale and skinny victims.
She stood up and tried to move forward, but someone grabbed her ankle. She turned around and saw a dying old man. Blood flowed from his cracked lips when he moved.
"Don't go forward. There's no immortal mountain ahead. Go back. It's better to turn back. There are no immortals in this world. Even if there were, after decades of cultivation without a breakthrough, you'd still be a mortal. Go back. Your parents are waiting for you at home."
Lan Shuang turned her head and saw a kind-looking couple standing not far away. They waved to her with a smile, "Xiao Shuang, come back. Mother will make you your favorite meat."
"So this is the kind of test. Boring." Lan Shuang turned around and continued walking forward without even glancing at the old man on the ground. The old man clutched her ankle tightly, his eyes almost bleeding. "Why don't you listen?! If you keep going forward, you'll be like us! Time flies in the world of cultivation. You'll die before you even finish your studies! Turn back now! It's never too late!"
Lan Shuang glanced at him and said, "Let go. How can I go back if you don't let go?"
The old man was delighted and immediately let go of her hand. Lan Shuang's ankle was free. She took two steps back, and while the old man was not paying attention, she turned around and ran forward.
