Chapter 243 You Dare to Betray Me
"Oh my god, why did Master Zigong come in person to select disciples this time?"
The girl in yellow sitting in front of Lian Ling couldn't help but whisper to the girl in white beside her.
"I don't know. We must perform well this time. It would be great if we are noticed by Purple Palace Master."
The girl in white lowered her voice, but couldn't hide the excitement in it.
"Everyone, be quiet. Today is the day for the disciple selection. I will choose a closed disciple from among you. So, I look forward to your performance next."
Zi Yanran's voice is like a gentle spring breeze, which makes people relax.
All the candidates present could not help but get excited. It was such a great honor to become the closed disciple of Master Zigong.
"The first round of selection begins now. The spirit stones in your hands can measure the attributes of your spirit roots. If you want to practice alchemy, you must have fire spirit roots and wood spirit roots."
The disciples of the Purple Moon Palace took out the spirit stones and distributed them to the candidates present. Everyone held the spirit stones tightly, and various colors flashed on them.
Lian Ling looked at the spirit stone in her hand, thought for a while, and covered up the attributes of other spirit roots, revealing only the wood spirit root.
“Huh.”
The smile on Zi Yanran's face suddenly paused, and her eyes fell on Lian Ling's hand. The spirit stone in her hand was green and juicy, like the finest jadeite.
She stood up in surprise and quickly walked to Lian Ling. When she saw Lian Ling's appearance clearly, the satisfaction in her eyes became even stronger.
"May I have your name?"
Zi Yanran asked softly.
"My name is Lian Ling."
"Lian Ling! What a great name!"
Looking at her clear and bright eyes, Zi Yanran liked Lian Ling even more. She smiled and nodded. What a smart little girl.
"Are you willing to become my last disciple?"
Zi Yanran looked at the cute little girl in front of her, a smile flashing in her eyes.
Lian Ling blinked her big eyes, nodded and said, "Yes!"
Her voice was clear and pleasant, with a hint of joy and anticipation. Then she lowered her head and said.
"But I haven't completed the disciple selection yet."
Zi Yanran chuckled, took Lian Ling's hand and walked out of the hall, saying with a smile: "Haha, it's not necessary."
Lian Ling looked at her in confusion and asked, "Why?"
Zi Yanran stopped, turned around, gently touched Lian Ling's head, and explained.
"When I accept disciples, I focus on first impression. Now that you have caught my eye, you can become my disciple if you are willing."
Lian Ling widened her eyes, her face full of disbelief. She didn't expect that she would be so lucky to receive the favor of this mysterious and powerful Alchemy God.
Zi Yanran seemed to see through Lian Ling's thoughts and said with a smile: "Don't be so surprised, this is fate."
Lian Ling nodded vigorously, her eyes sparkling with excitement.
Just like that, Lian Ling became Zi Yanran's closed disciple without any effort, which even she herself found incredible.
After becoming Zi Yanran's disciple, Lian Ling did not return to the Lotus Secret Realm immediately, but stayed in the Ziyue Palace and began to learn alchemy.
She followed Zi Yanran to learn various alchemy techniques, from the most basic identification of medicinal materials to the refining of complex pill recipes, step by step, and gradually mastered the essence of alchemy.
At the same time, Lian Ling also got to know other disciples, all of whom were talented young men from different places, each with unique talents and potential.
In the process of getting along with them, Lian Ling not only learned more knowledge, but also gained precious friendships.
During her time in Purple Moon Palace, Lian Ling lived a fulfilling and happy life.
In addition to practicing every day, she spends a lot of time studying alchemy.
As time went by, her alchemy skills continued to improve, and she was even able to refine some high-level elixirs.
Lian Ling would also regularly send messages back to the Lotus Secret Realm to share her growth and progress with Lian Bai and the others.
Here, Mantuo was searching for Zetian like crazy. She knew that Zetian must be trapped in the realm of gods.
That day, she disguised herself and sneaked into the realm of gods, trying to find out where Zetian was.
In the temple of the gods, the God of Wind had a gloating look on his face.
"Everyone, the God of War Ze Tian has been refusing to give in and is determined to get entangled with the witch of the demon world. Let's discuss what to do about this matter?"
"Yes, the God Realm and the Demon Realm have always been at odds with each other. If the War God Zetian insists on doing what he wants, he will definitely be used by the Demon Realm in the future."
"Alas, I didn't expect that the guardian god of war in my divine world would degenerate on his own."
Everyone in the temple was talking about it. Some were sighing, some were angry, and some were uneasy...
"I have a plan, is it feasible?"
Seeing that the atmosphere was almost set, Fengshen told him his plan.
When everyone saw him like this, they urged him to speak out.
"Wind God, if you have any ideas, please tell us so that we can discuss them together!"
"Yes, Fengshen, just tell me directly."
The God of Wind's eyes turned and he spoke seriously.
"The God of War is obsessed with the witch from the demon world. It's probably because he has been too lonely these years. We can find a Taoist partner for him. If he has a Taoist partner, he won't miss the witch anymore."
"Well, that makes sense! How can a goddess from my world of gods be compared to a witch from her generation?"
Elder Shui agreed very much with the words of the God of Wind. The temple was moving very fast, and there were already many goddesses in the God Realm who admired the God of War.
The temple quickly selected a Taoist partner for Zetian.
In order to completely sever the relationship between Zetian and the witch, the temple even spread the news that Zetian was going to get married.
As soon as Mantuo arrived in the divine realm, he was caught off guard by the news. She couldn't believe that Zetian had betrayed their relationship like this, so she had to ask him in person.
The next day, the temple was decorated with new clothes and was full of joy. Ze Tian was fed the Soul-Trapping Pill and had no power to resist at all. His face was full of resentment, but he could only be manipulated by others.
"The auspicious time has arrived, please invite the newlyweds to enter the hall together."
Zetian was wearing a bright red dress and her face was as cold as ice. But everyone in the hall turned a blind eye and congratulated him.
"War God Zetian, congratulations! The Goddess Qionghua is one of the most beautiful women in our God Realm. War God is blessed."
The goddess Qionghua looked shy and secretly looked at Zetian beside her. She never dreamed that a goddess of low status like her would one day be able to become a couple with the God of War.
She didn't mind Ze Tian's icy face at all. After all, Ze Tian was like this in the past, always treating people coldly.
"The God of War Zetian and the Goddess of Qionghua are in love with each other. Today, we ask the Heavenly Dao to witness that the two of them will become Taoist couples. From now on, the two of them will support each other and never leave each other."
As Elder Shui finished speaking, Mantuo's pretty face turned cold as she suddenly appeared in the hall.
Her eyes were like knives, she glared at Zetian fiercely and walked slowly towards him step by step.
"Zetian, how dare you betray me?"
