Chapter 18 Chapter 18 You are so good, Wei Xin
The next day, Yun Jin brought Xu Shun to the courtyard in a hurry, interrupting Yun Du's meditation.
As soon as he entered the room, Yun Jin said in a serious tone, "Brother, something seems to have happened at the assessment meeting."
"What happened?"
"You tell me." Yun Jin looked at Xu Shun.
Xu Shun said, "Master, when I was out on a mission a few years ago, I met a casual cultivator by chance. Two days ago, I found out that he also came to participate in the selection, so I paid more attention to him."
Xu Shun had participated in the selection conference and knew what kind of situations would arise in the secret realm of trial.
If someone dies inside, they will simply exit the secret realm and be eliminated, and there is no need to worry about their life.
However, after this casual cultivator was eliminated, he was nowhere to be found. Xu Shun searched the entire Qingguan Sect but could not find him.
"After Xu Shun told me about this, I paid close attention to the situation inside and discovered that another casual cultivator had the same situation. After being swallowed by the monster inside, he disappeared inexplicably, and the monster was nowhere to be found." Yun Jin continued.
The three of them thought of the situation in Baige Town at the same time.
"What kind of monster?" Yun Du asked.
"This time the monsters are not humans, but demonic beasts from a secret realm. And what the two people encountered are different."
"Do the elders know about this?"
"As soon as we found something wrong, we came to find you, but we haven't notified anyone yet." Yun Jin said in a low voice.
This secret realm has been in use for thousands of years without any problems, so when Yun Jin discovered the problem, the first person he thought of was Yun Du.
"Once the secret realm is opened, it cannot be easily closed halfway, unless the three elders work together to use the secret method of our sect to close the secret realm safely. But the sect master had a quarrel with the third elder yesterday, and the third elder went out in anger." Yun Jin sighed.
"Send a message to the third elder first, and ask him to return to the sect as soon as possible. Just say that we have something important to discuss with him." Yun Du arranged.
"Okay." Yun Jin nodded and did as he was told.
"It would be great if we could go into the secret realm and check it out for ourselves," Xu Shun suggested.
Yun Jin: "To ensure fairness, all Qingguan Sect disciples are not allowed to enter the secret realm. This is the rule."
The two looked at each other, at a loss as to what to do.
"I do have a candidate." Yun Du said.

——"I want to see you, right now."
When Wei Xin saw the words on the talisman, his first reaction was that Yun Du was wasting his talisman paper and feelings again, and his second reaction was that he had to beat him up.
So he went to the courtyard with a ferocious look on his face.
But he saw two "White Impermanence" standing behind Yun Du and was stunned: "Why are they here?"
"How could it be him?!" Yun Jin and Xu Shun both looked at Yun Du in disbelief.
"He is the only one who meets these two conditions, knowing about monsters but not being a disciple of Qingguan Sect." Yun Du said reasonably.
The two had complicated expressions and couldn't think of any words to refute.
"Hmph." Yun Jin didn't want to see him and turned his back.
"Ha." Xu Shun didn't look happy either. He sneered and stared at him gloomily.
Only Yun Du, who was standing in the middle, gave him a faint smile and said, "We want to discuss something with you."
"What's the matter?" Wei Xin looked at them warily, "Do you want to call the two generals Heng and Ha?"
"You are just a ruthless and heartless devil!" Yun Jin scolded.
Wei Xin: "You are affectionate and righteous, pretty girl."
"......" Yun Jin choked and looked at Yun Du angrily, "Brother, look at him like this, is he reliable?!"
"He is not wrong." Yun Du said with a smile.
"Senior Brother!"
"Uncle Master, let's get down to business." Xu Shun said seriously.
Yundu told Wei Xin everything they had discovered.
"So you want me to go into the secret realm and check for abnormal situations?" Wei Xin asked.
"Yes. It just so happens that you have fabricated an identity - Xu Yingjun, which can be used this time."
Wei Xin narrowed his eyes. This guy could see through his disguise at a glance. Unlike those two idiots, who were still asking in confusion who Xu Yingjun was?
Wei Xin stretched out his hand to interrupt their conversation: "Why should I listen to your arrangements?"
"This is not an arrangement, it's a collaboration. Don't you also have no idea about what's going on in Baige Town?"
"Who said I have no idea? I just don't want to tell you." Wei Xin said proudly, "You can let me go to the secret realm. You can beg me."
"I beg you."
“.......”
You're asking too soon! I haven't even finished the score yet!
"Look at how useless you are." Wei Xin couldn't help but complain.
Even Yun Jin and Xu Shun couldn't help but nod in their hearts.
"So you agree?" Yun Du asked with a smile.
Wei Xin nodded, pointed at the two men and said, "Remember, this time he asked me to cooperate with him, so you should be polite to me in the future."
"snort."
"ha."
"How can I contact you after I enter the secret realm?" Wei Xin asked again.
"Wait a moment." Yundu opened the window, grabbed a pigeon, and stroked its body gently.
"No way, sending messages by flying pigeons? So old-fashioned?" Wei Xin was speechless.
"This is what I'm going to stew tonight. You can drink pigeon soup when you come back." Yun Du said.
Three people: "......"
Yun Du plucked a feather from the pigeon, carved a spell on it, and spread out his hands: "Give me your hand."
Wei Xin put his hands on it, and the feather turned into a puff of smoke in the palms of both men.
"Master, what kind of magic is this?" Xu Shun asked quietly.
"If I'm not mistaken, it should be the Feather Pointing Technique, which transforms bird feathers into the palm of your hand and leaves a mark on the other party. Then, you can achieve real-time voice transmission across a long distance and in another space in your consciousness, and outsiders cannot detect it."
"You guessed it?" Xu Shun was puzzled. "Don't tell me you don't know this spell either?"
“Because Master didn’t teach us to pass on the seal hand in hand…” Yun Jin gritted his teeth.
Xu Shun: "......"
Master, I want to learn this!
Everything was almost discussed. When Yun Jin saw the smile on Wei Xin's face, he felt that he had bad intentions and could not help but worry: "Brother, he is Wei Xin, are you really going to let him enter the secret realm?"
That is the secret realm of the Qingguan Sect. What if Wei Xin causes trouble in it, or directly destroys the secret realm, then wouldn’t all the efforts of the Qingguan Sect for thousands of years be destroyed in an instant?
"Then I'll go."
Wei Xin originally agreed to this because he thought that he could continue to track down clues about the monster and at the same time improve his favorability in front of the male and female protagonists.
But when he saw that she objected again and again, he immediately wanted to give up. Whoever wants to see this cold face can do so!
He turned around and tried to leave, but Yun Du grabbed his wrist.
"If he destroys the secret realm, I will bear all the responsibilities, even if it means expelling him from the sect or severing my own meridians," said Yun Du.
All three were shocked by his words.
"Why do you trust him so much?" Yun Jin was confused.
Wei Xin nodded and asked, "Yes, aren't you afraid that I have ulterior motives?"
"Then consider it the price I pay for not knowing people well." Yun Du said calmly.
"Do you know how serious the consequences are?" Yun Jin asked again.
Yun Du nodded, raised his eyes, and looked at Wei Xin intently: "But he is a man who will keep his promises. I believe him."
Wei Xin: “…”
It's an absolute overpraise!
Once he put on this high hat, it would be embarrassing to take it off. Wei Xin couldn't help asking: "Why do you trust me? Do you know what happened to those who trusted me?"
"Has anyone ever trusted you unconditionally?" Yun Du asked back.
Wei Xin choked: "...No."
"Now I have it." Yun Du said, "We are friends. I will trust you unconditionally."
Wei Xin glanced at him and suddenly fell silent, feeling quite complicated.
"There is no time to waste. You two should take him to see the sect leader and send him into the secret realm." Yun Du said.
On the road, all three of them looked dazed.
When Yun Jin thought that the devil was right behind him, he felt a chill all over his body. He wished he could kill the enemy in one fell swoop and bring peace to the world.
Xu Shun looked at his enemy, gritted his teeth secretly, and even prepared to die with him.
Needless to say, Wei Xin's mood was very bad. He thought about killing these two men, and then he thought about controlling them. However, he did nothing. All he thought about in his mind was the word trust.
The three of them walked this journey in a peaceful, harmonious and thoughtful manner.
Wei Xin has transformed into the appearance of a casual cultivator and was taken by Yun Jin to meet the sect leader.
"Two days ago, my senior brother asked this young Taoist friend to help him deal with some chores. He wanted to directly accept him as a disciple to repay the favor, but he did not want to become my disciple and wanted to continue to participate in the selection." Yun Jin said.
"What's your name?" The sect leader was busy looking at the situation in the secret realm. He took a quick look and turned his head away.
"Xu Yingjun." Wei Xin replied.
The sect leader asked the disciple next to him to check. The disciple opened the registration book and said, "This person does exist, but he has not yet entered the secret realm."
The clan leader stood up, walked to Wei Xin, and felt his pulse.
Yun Jin's eyelids twitched. He knew that the sect leader was testing his internal strength, and his heart instantly rose.
"He lacks the qualifications. I'm afraid Yundu didn't want to accept him, so they sent him back." The sect leader let go of his hand.
Yun Jin followed his words and showed a guilty expression.
"The secret realm has been underway for two days, and most people have already gotten more than halfway through. It's extremely difficult inside. If you give up now, you can still go down the mountain safely. Have you considered this?" asked the sect leader.
Wei Xin nodded timidly: "Now that I'm here..."
The sect leader had no choice but to send him into the secret realm.
The next moment, Wei Xin fell into darkness and fell heavily to the ground.
"hiss--"
Since he had guessed in advance that the sect master would investigate his cultivation level, he leaked his internal energy in advance, and after falling into the secret realm, he was badly hurt.
"Be careful." Yun Du's voice echoed in his consciousness.
After entering the secret realm, he no longer had to hide his internal energy. He concentrated his mind and circulated his internal energy, then triggered the Feather Pointing Technique and conversed with Yun Du in his consciousness.
"What should we do next? You can see the situation in the secret realm there, right?"
"Yes, there are more independent cultivators in the north, so you should go there first."
Wei Xin hurried to the north and couldn't help but sow discord: "Your leader doesn't want you to have a good disciple."
"Um."
"He must be jealous of you, so he is using your collusion with me to damage your reputation."
"Um."
"Are you willing to endure this?"
"Um."
"Hmm, hmm, you're just going to say 'hmm' without any emotion?"
"Ah, ha, um, ah, hurry up..." Yundu shouted emotionally.
"......What do you mean by fast?!" Wei Xin suspected that he must have read a lot of erotic and romantic novels.
"They've already left, hurry over there." Yun Du's tone was serious, completely different from his previous frivolous tone.
Wei Xin: "What's wrong with me just going over slowly?"
"Ah, ha, um—"
"Shut up!" Wei Xin sped up and covered his ears with a red face, but his smiling voice could still be heard.
"You're so good, Wei Xin."
