Chapter 2



A day later, a junior fellow apprentice came to tell Luo Jianqing that the mistake on Lei Ting Road was purely an accident.

As the foremost sect in the world of cultivation, Taihua Mountain recruits disciples from across the world every ten years. Ten years is but a period of seclusion for a cultivator, so such a recruitment drive naturally cannot be directly handled by the sect's elders, but is instead handed over entirely to the younger generation of disciples.

Luo Jianqing is the first disciple of Taihua Mountain and the only disciple of Yuxiao Peak, the seventh peak of Taihua Mountain. He had taken charge of it once ten years ago, but this time he happened to be traveling, so the task fell on Wei Qiongyin, the third senior sister of Taihua Mountain.

However, something went wrong at Thunder Road.

The disciple who was responsible for using spirit stones to activate the Thunder Road accidentally put a medium-grade spirit stone in instead of a low-grade one, causing the difficulty of the Thunder Road to increase sharply and almost causing a disaster.

Wei Qiongyin knew that her command was wrong, so she accepted a month's punishment and went to the Cliff of Repentance to face the wall. Therefore, the next competition among the peaks was handed over to Luo Jianqing.

Listening to Wei Qiongyin's voice transmission over thousands of miles, Luo Jianqing was really at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

"Brother Luo, of the seven peaks of Mount Taihua, your Yuxiao Peak is the quietest. This incident is my fault, and I must accept the punishment. According to the headmaster's request, I would like to ask you to help me preside over the competition among the various peaks. I would be very grateful. Wei Qiongyin."

When asking someone for help, do you always say "You have the most free time" first?

It seems that Wei Qiongyin is still the same as in her previous life, only knowing how to practice but not how to behave as a human being.

Luo Jianqing didn't refuse such an offer. In fact, he had been the one who organized the inter-peak competition in his previous life. He watched helplessly as that boy, with ordinary talent, seemed to have divine help. In just ten days, his strength improved greatly. In the end, he won the second place in the inter-peak competition and directly entered Yuxiao Peak, becoming the second disciple of Yuxiao Peak.

Three days ago, Luo Jianqing woke up among the corpses of beasts.

His bones felt like they were about to be crushed, his head weighed a thousand pounds, his white robe was stained with thick blood, and he was surrounded by the corpses of hundreds of demonic beasts. Luo Jianqing thought he had arrived in hell, but when he found that his spiritual energy was flowing on its own, he was overjoyed and suddenly remembered this place -

Wanshou Ridge.

Many years ago, he often liked to come to Wanshou Ridge to kill monsters, sometimes for two or three years at a time.

Killing demons in Wanshou Ridge is unregulated, and demon cultivators can also come here to hunt and kill human cultivators. This is a no-man's land, and human cultivators and demon cultivators often come here to settle their personal grudges. Killing here is unregulated by anyone.

After waking up, Luo Jianqing didn't get up immediately. Instead, he sat among the beast corpses, thinking about his past life. He already knew that he had returned to eighteen years ago, when Li Xiuchen had not yet entered Taihua Mountain and had not yet become his junior apprentice.

And now is the critical time when Li Xiuchen is about to enter the mountain gate!

After figuring this out, Luo Jianqing quickly set off to return to Taihua Mountain to prevent Li Xiuchen from entering the sect. Unexpectedly, he had just taken a step and hadn't yet taken flight when he suddenly felt something swiftly fall from the sky, aiming for him.

Luo Jianqing raised his hand and grasped the hidden weapon. He lowered his eyes and asked, "Seeking Immortality?"

After opening this book, Luo Jianqing's entire life was completely turned upside down.

His world is a book! And it's a book with no moral values, no bottom line, and no logic!

Li Xiuchen, looking up, encountered magical treasures, looking down, spirit beasts. From the moment he entered Mount Taihua, he thrived, practically seizing all the luck in the world. Every girl in this book might not have had a favorable impression of him upon meeting him, but Li Xiuchen always found a way to save her, changing her mind and even winning her heart.

After reading this book, Luo Jianqing felt completely unwell. His handsome and elegant face was filled with anger, and his phoenix eyes were narrowed tightly. With a single swing of his sword, he killed a demon cultivator who was about to launch a sneak attack, and then quickly flew back to the sect on his sword.

The book "Seeking Immortality" is not very complete, only describing how Li Xiuchen replaced him, Luo Jianqing, and became the beloved junior apprentice of Taihua Mountain. Luo Jianqing knew that after this, he was repeatedly framed by Li Xiuchen, and finally killed one of Li Xiuchen's spirit beasts in a fit of rage, causing Li Xiuchen to be seriously injured in the secret realm, and thus he was expelled from Taihua Mountain.

——They were clearly treasure hunting in the secret realm, and this happened because Li Xiuchen and he had a fight, and in the end it turned out that he was the one who attacked Li Xiuchen by surprise!

On the way back to Taihua Mountain from Wanshou Ridge, Luo Jianqing read the book "Seeking Immortality" a full twelve times.

The feeling of being pierced through the heart in his previous life still lingered in his memory, and he would never allow such a thing to happen again in this life.

Before arriving at the Thunder Road, Luo Jianqing had even considered killing Li Xiuchen right there with a single strike. But this was just a thought. Many of his fellow apprentices were watching from outside the Thunder Road, and he absolutely couldn't do such an unnatural thing. So, Luo Jianqing blocked the lightning for the innocent girl, changing the course of the story.

However……

"Brother Luo, this is the list of new disciples this year. Please take a look."

Luo Jianqing lowered his eyes to look at the dozens of names. When he saw the three words "Li Xiuchen", the corners of his mouth twitched slightly. He smiled and looked up at his junior brother, and asked in a gentle tone: "I remember this Li Xiuchen's physique was average. Has he also entered the mountain gate?"

Looking at the fair and elegant face and the smile as calm as the wind, the junior brother couldn't help swallowing his saliva and said in a trembling voice: "Although Li Xiuchen has a poor foundation, he has passed the Thunder Road. Senior Brother Luo, after you took action to stop the thunder, the Thunder Road was quickly closed, so a total of 24 junior brothers and sisters were accepted this time." Almost all the trial participants who remained until the end were accepted.
