Sunset Peak.
"Why are you so absent-minded?"
Cang Jinglan looked at Yan Ying, who was sitting opposite him in a daze, with an unhappy expression.
She has been absent-minded since early this morning.
Yan Ying didn't react at all. She kept her eyes downcast and didn't move, as if she didn't hear Cang Jinglan's words.
“Pah.”
Cang Jinglan tapped the table lightly.
Yan Ying raised her head, realizing she had been lost in thought. "Master."
"What are you thinking about?" Cang Jinglan asked coldly.
"Nothing." Yan Ying shook her head. Today was the written test. She didn't know if Cen Ji and Wu Bai could pass it successfully.
She asked for leave from her master yesterday, so she could only come to practice today.
"It's hard to concentrate on your practice when you have things hidden in your mind." Cang Jinglan looked at Yan Ying helplessly in a deep voice.
During this month, he had almost fully understood Yan Ying's foundation. Her practice and learning speed were several times faster than others, but she loved to play and sometimes found it difficult to concentrate on her practice.
"Okay, if you need anything, go ahead."
When Yan Ying heard Cang Jinglan's words, she suddenly raised her head and looked at Cang Jinglan in front of her with surprise.
"Go quickly." Cang Jinglan stood up and left his seat. "You don't have to come tomorrow. Come back after the new disciple selection is over."
He had prepared some new spells to teach her today, but seeing that she had no intention of learning magic, he decided to do it another day.
Her mind was preoccupied with other things, and leaving her here, her mind not here, was useless, a waste of time.
"Thank you, Master!" Yan Ying bowed and ran out happily.
Cang Jinglan looked at Yan Ying's back and sighed softly. She was just a child after all, and she loved to play. He didn't know if she could live up to the sect's expectations of her.
Hopefully, he wasn't mistaken.
At the corner outside the door, the white dress quickly disappeared behind the wooden pillar.
Mu Siyue looked at Yan Ying's departing back, her eyes filled with resentment.
Yesterday, Cen Ji returned to the sect to participate in the disciple selection, but she only found out about it this morning.
Elder Gong went to supervise the exam, so she didn't have to study early today and returned to Sunset Peak early. However, she saw Cang Jinglan looking straight at Yan Ying, with a look of concern that she had never seen before.
Yan Ying has only been at Sunset Peak for a month, and she is Cang Jinglan's apprentice. Why does her master have such different attitudes towards her and Yan Ying?
Mu Siyue has never forced anything in her life. She just hopes that her master can look at her more.
But she has never been in Cang Jinglan's eyes or heart.
She used to think that her master was devoted to cultivation, but now looking at his attitude towards Yan Ying, she thought that he just didn't want to waste time on her.
......
"It's almost time, what's going on inside?" Wu Lin asked the disciple guarding the door while shaking his fan and frowning.
Today is the written test. There are shields in the square, and Elder Gong Wenxiu is supervising the exam in the square.
They were supposed to help supervise the disciples' answers in the square, but Elder Gong drove them all out, saying that he was afraid that they would affect the disciples' answers.
Wu Lin looked up and squinted at the sun, calculating the time, it should be about time.
"Second Brother!"
Wu Lin was startled. Yan Ying suddenly appeared beside him and called him. He was so scared that he was about to dodge, but he saw that it was his junior sister.
"Why are you here? Shouldn't you be practicing at Sunset Peak?" Wu Lin remembered that Yan Ying told him this morning that she couldn't come to watch the selection of new disciples, and said that she was going to Sunset Peak to learn magic.
"Master asked me to come." Yan Ying smiled happily.
She was completely surprised that Master made an exception and gave her a day off! Master is such a kind person.
"Ah? Master asked you to come?" Wu Lin tapped his fan on his palm. Is Master so easy to talk to?
"Hey! You can't come in."
Yan Ying was about to enter the examination room when she was pulled back by Wu Lin.
"Why? Isn't it... the supervisor?" Yan Ying stood on tiptoe and looked into the examination room.
The square was filled with tables and chairs, and the disciples sat in front of the tables in an orderly manner, answering their questions.
"Elder Gong is inside. He told us all to come out because we were causing trouble. We are all standing here and cannot get in." Wu Lin pointed at the people standing opposite him with his fan and said helplessly.
Only then did Yan Ying see that several chief disciples and elders were standing not far away.
Ye Chenge saw Yan Ying and walked towards them.
"Little dirty boy, Cen Ji and Wu Bai are both in there, there shouldn't be any problem. I just asked Wu Bai, and he said he had already memorized it in advance." Ye Chenge said lightly to Yan Ying.
Wu Lin's gaze turned to Ye Chenge.
This woman is quite interesting. Why did she stay away from him when Yan Ying was not here, but come over as soon as Yan Ying came?
Ye Chenge seemed to have some opinion about him. Every time he saw him, he had an indifferent and somewhat disgusted look on his face, as if he didn't want to have any contact with him.
"Senior Sister Ye, I heard that you went down the mountain a few days ago and captured a monster." Wu Lin took the initiative to start a conversation.
"Yes, it's just a small animal." Ye Chenge said softly.
"That's why we say Senior Sister Ye is incomparable to ordinary people. She can subdue the monster without any effort. I really admire her." Wu Lin said respectfully, while looking at Ye Chenge's expression.
Ye Chenge didn't reply, just smiled faintly at Wu Lin and ignored him.
Yan Ying looked up at the two faces that were not on the same level as her. Both of them were much taller than her, sandwiching her in the middle. She couldn't stop them from talking at all.
"Second brother, are you interested in my sister?" Yan Ying asked for no reason.
Both of their faces froze and they turned their heads away.
"Junior sister, don't talk nonsense. I have nothing but admiration for Senior Sister Ye." Wu Lin slapped Yan Ying on the back. How could she talk nonsense? Wasn't she afraid that Ye Chenge would get mad after saying this?
"Then why don't you go to Senior Sister Shangguan to express your admiration?" Yan Ying insisted.
She discovered yesterday that Second Brother's eyes were always on her sister.
Moreover, he had come to her specifically to inquire about Ye Chenge. Apart from the fact that he had a crush on her sister, she really couldn't think of any other explanation.
Wu Lin pursed his lips. This was unfortunate. He couldn't afford to offend either of these two senior sisters. The junior sister would really cause him trouble.
"Second Brother, as a real man, you must dare to think and dare to take responsibility."
Yan Ying winked at Wu Lin.
If Second Senior Brother really wants to do this, she can help him.
The second brother and his sister are both grown up and look quite a match.
The elder sister is heroic, with beautiful features, tall figure, and is a righteous person. The second brother is considered a man.
"Stop talking nonsense, you little bastard. The second test is almost over." Ye Chenge said in a deep voice.
She glanced at Wu Lin sideways. Every part of this man revealed evil intentions. She heard that he had an extraordinary background. She had checked his background and found out that he was from the imperial city, and there were no good people in the imperial city.
Seeing her sister wasn't interested, Yan Ying gave up and patted Wu Lin on the shoulder. "Second Brother, just kidding, you're my Second Brother! My blessing is your blessing, and my sister is your sister. Next time, don't be so distant with our sister. Your pick-up line is too old-fashioned."
The corners of Wu Lin's mouth twitched, and he looked at Yan Ying reluctantly. He really didn't want this blessing.
