Chapter 726 Priest Trial?
It was early morning and the lobby was crowded with almost no empty tables. She glanced around and found a man and a woman occupying a table in the corner.
Luo Li's heart moved, and she walked over. She looked at the girl with dazzling golden hair and said with a smile, "Excuse me, can I sit here?"
She was thinking about something, so naturally she didn't notice the strange looks from others.
Luo Li said with some embarrassment, "Look, this place is full, I..."
Before she could finish her words, the girl said enthusiastically, "Okay, okay, come with us. My brother and I ordered a lot of food and can't finish it!"
Before the girl finished speaking, she made room for the empty seat beside her. Her bright green eyes curved into crescent shapes, full of sincerity and friendliness.
Her brother also smiled slightly and nodded for Luo Li to sit down.
The table was filled with all kinds of snacks from the spiritual world, from crystal clear spiritual fruits to steaming spiritual food, colorful and fragrant.
After Luo Li sat down, the girl immediately picked up a pair of chopsticks, picked up a piece of soft and delicious looking spiritual rice, and enthusiastically handed it to Luo Li, "Try this, it's made with spiritual rice that's unique to our spiritual world. You can't get it outside!"
Luo Li reached out and took it, "Thank you."
"You're welcome!" The blonde girl said with a smile, "My name is Lingji."
She pointed to the blond boy beside her with a cold face, who looked 70% like her, and said, "His name is Lingche, and he's my brother."
Luo Li smiled and said, "Hello."
Lingche glanced at her sideways, a hint of vigilance flashed across his emerald eyes, but he still nodded at her, but did not speak.
Ling Ji pursed his lips and looked at Luo Li, "Don't worry about him, he has been like this since he was a child."
She smiled playfully, "Looks like this is your first time in Twilight City."
Luo Li nodded and said half-truthfully, "Well, I came all the way to Twilight City from Yunmeng Town."
"Yunmeng Town?" Ling Ji asked in surprise, "Then do you know Ling Hai?"
"Ling Hai?" Luo Li narrowed her eyes and nodded, "Yes, you recognize him too?"
Ling Che was moved at the side. No wonder he always felt that this girl had a familiar yet strange feeling about her. It turned out to be Ling Hai...
"Of course!" Ling Ji looked at him with a look of surprise. "Priest Ling used to be a first-level priest in Twilight City. Later, because he was injured, the high priest sent him home to recuperate and relax. I haven't seen him for many years."
As Lingji spoke, a trace of nostalgia flashed in his eyes, "How is he? Is he okay?"
Luo Li smiled upon hearing this and nodded in affirmation, "He's a very good person. There are many children in Yunmeng Town who respect him very much."
Ling Ji breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good."
Lingche's voice was slightly hoarse, and he suddenly asked, "So what are you doing in Twilight City?"
"What else can I do?"
Before Luo Li could speak, Ling Ji said as a matter of course, "You came to Twilight City at this time, you must be here to participate in the priest trial."
Priest...Trial?
Luo Li blinked. She had never heard of it.
Ling Ji was a chatterbox. Before she could hear Luo Li speak, she dragged her chin and started nagging, "But I'm not saying anything, you're a little late. The trial starts the day after tomorrow, and you only arrived today. You really aren't in a hurry."
"Stop talking." Ling Che felt a headache after hearing this. He pressed his forehead and looked at Luo Li, "Are you really here to participate in the priest trial?"
Hearing the voice, Ling Ji knew that her brother was angry, so she shut her mouth obediently.
Luo Li asked back, "What do you think I'm here for?"
Ling Che didn't get angry when asked in return. He looked at Luo Li and curled his lips coldly, "If you are here to participate in the priest trial, who taught you the purification technique now? What level have you reached?"
He tilted his head slightly and said, "The Twilight City priest trial requires high-level priests to participate. How can a twenty-year-old girl like you become a high-level priest?"
Luo Li's smile remained unchanged. "I'm not a priest. I just knew that Twilight City was going to hold a priest trial, so I came to observe."
"Huh?" Ling Ji was a little surprised and blinked, "So you're not a priest?"
She said a little embarrassedly, "I saw that the aura of purification on you was so strong that I thought you were a priest. I'm sorry."
"No problem," Luo Li smiled, "Are you two here to participate in the priest trial as well?"
"No..." Ling Ji said subconsciously, "We came out to see what's going on outside and will be back to the palace soon."
Before Lingche could stop her, his unreliable sister almost revealed all her family assets.
He has a headache!
Never mind, they didn’t try to hide their identities anyway, not even their hair color.
Maybe the girl was also suspicious, but she certainly didn't expect their true identities.
"Return to the palace?"
Luo Li had no idea that the bloodline of people from the spirit world could be identified by their hair color. She didn't react much when she heard this, and only nodded, "I see."
Lingche and Lingji were both a little stunned. Although they didn't think their identities were that special, wasn't this reaction a little too bland?
Luo Li keenly noticed the two people's strange reactions, but she didn't say much, only asking, "Is it related to the black energy that is ravaging the spirit world?"
Luo Li's words made Lingche and Lingji look at each other, with a complicated look in their eyes.
This obviously involved secrets of the spirit world. Ling Che pinched Ling Ji's arm and said to Luo Li with a smile, "We are only here on orders, so we can't talk nonsense."
"I see," Luo Li understood, then smiled and said, "I'm new to Twilight City too. I've heard the High Priest is incredibly powerful, and I admire him very much. I wonder if he'll be attending the Priest Trial?"
Ling Ji naturally understood that since she had been in Yunmeng Town for many years and didn't know what was happening outside, she said enthusiastically, "This is a priest trial. As the first priest in the spiritual world, of course the high priest will show up."
"However..." She nodded her golden hair, "The priest trial lasts for three days. The high priest has been very busy lately. He will probably only appear at the end when the selected priests are announced."
Ling Che took a sip of his spiritual tea and said slowly, "But the High Priest has been very busy lately. He might not have the time to come."
Luo Li's eyes dimmed, "Is that so..."
Seeing that she seemed a little disappointed, Ling Ji suddenly said, "How about this? I'll take you to the trial field tomorrow to try your luck. Maybe you can meet the high priest."
Lingche felt a headache seeing his sister being so enthusiastic, but he didn't stop her.
He always felt that there was something strange about the aura of this girl. If she really had any purpose, perhaps this trip could help him find out.
Luo Li's eyes flickered, and she chuckled and said, "Then I will respectfully obey your orders. Thank you very much, both of you."
