Bai Lian was perched on the crooked tree growing out of the crevice in the craggy cliff.
The moonlight softly streamed upon her water blue dress.
The evening breeze blew gently.
The blue-gray earrings swayed in the wind, and a layer of hazy starlight was gathered here unbidden.
Seen from a distance.
It's as if the dazzling galaxy of stars had been captured by her, and then the stars danced around her like graceful dancers in long sleeves.
Listening to the tinkling of the bell.
Bai Lian gently pressed her fair, pale right hand against the mischievous earrings.
Then.
She raised her eyes full of emotion and gazed at the cold moon in the sky."Is it a draw?"
This is actually good.
If the Second Martial Sister and the Third Martial Sister really decide the winner in the final match.
The person who lost will inevitably lower her stance unconsciously afterward.
Although the conflict between the two won't erupt again in a short time, this is not the situation that Bai Lian wants to see.
She deep down hopes the second Martial Sister and the third Martial Sister can become good friends who have good things to share with each other.
It's very hard.
But.
No matter how difficult it is, how can one reach the other shore of happiness without doing it?
"Let's start with our best-informed competitors first!"
Bai Lian raised her hands and stretched leisurely.
Therefore.
Under the sheer veil, the mountains accompany these stretching movements with a gentle quiver.
With this quiver.
The water-blue skirt, like a lake surface, also rippled lightly.
Like a wave of refreshing pleasure.
The water rippled outwards in all directions, cascading down Bai Lian's arms, legs, and into the clear night sky.
After a few seconds.
Everything returned to normal.
Bai Lian lightly clenched her fists.
It seems her injury has improved a lot.
She just ran through the cultivation method slightly and it brought about the Water Wave Special Effect.
She stood up.
It's time to go back!
Although the big competition has ended, she still has plenty of things to do.
These activities were originally mostly delegated to the second Martial Sister, but now the second Martial Sister has become injured, so she has to take them up again.
She can't expect the master to do it, can she?
Forget it.
Bai Lian was completely uneasy.
In her opinion, the master's ability is even worse than the fifth Martial Sister.
"So it has to be me!"
Bai Lian has determined eyes and lots of enthusiasm.
Raising "children" is not a problem for her.
She can raise the master, plus four Martial Sisters and the jade rabbit together!
She is poor now, but the food she can use to feed the children is like water in a sponge, she can always find a way to squeeze it out.
Bai Lian went up the stone steps.
The bright moonlight stretched her shadow very long.
Her even-proportioned body was like an angel clothed in a mantle of moonlight that had been brushed off dust.
…
In the following days, both the Duxian sect and the small town below the mountain became even more lively than before.
There is no other reason.
The much anticipated Duxian sect's Immortality Promotion Meeting will officially open on March 20th!
The seekers of the immortal who came from all directions were all enthusiastically excited.
Of course, this also includes Lu Wantong, who has made a firm resolution to finish the task well.
She walked down the bustling street, some people were discussing the Immortal Promotion Meeting, and others were talking about the big competition from a few days ago.
(Translated by Gravity Tales ?)
"Follow White Emperor Bai Lian and there will be meat to eat!"
"Back then, Xiao Jinse was able to become one of the strongest newcomers of the Duxian sect from an uncultivated wastrel. It's not a problem for me, Chen Batian, to become a Tomb Excavator of the Demon Sect from a night-soil worker!"
"I heard that Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian likes disciples, no, Martial Sisters who have a miserable background!"
"That's great! My father passed away when I was three and my mother passed away when I was five. I had no grandparents to raise me, and I grew up by collecting scraps for food. Do they understand my plight?!"
"…"
Lu Wantong opened her mouth in shock.
She has figured it out.
Now, the Qiongming Peak has become the top of the "Most Desired Main Peak to Join the Duxian Sect" list.
Even if the Qiongming Peak really opened up for recruitment, it would be difficult for her to get in smoothly.
With this sorrow, Lu Wantong finally arrived at the Immortality Promotion Meeting.
On March 20th, the sun was radiant.
Lu Wantong put on a more spirited make-up, and before leaving, she bowed to the gods her family venerated.
At noon.
She came to the open ground outside the Duxian sect's mountain gate with other people.
This is where the dream begins!
For many more, this is a land of shattered dreams.
Most people eventually leave with desperate looks on their faces, and some even burst into tears.
"Three years and three more, it's been ten years already, Big Brother, give me a chance!"
"I want to take revenge for my family, if I can't cultivate, what can I do to fight those people!"
"Father, I'm too unfilial, and I failed to fulfill your last wishes."
This is life.
Lu Wantong thought.
The stage of the East Divine Land is large, but not everyone can showcase themselves on this stage.
She clenched her fist.
No matter what, she doesn't want to become this kind of "loser."
She wants to cure her father.
She also wants to become a strong Transcendency Stage cultivator.
She wants to let the world know her name, Lu Wantong!
"Lu Wantong!"
At that moment, her name resounded in the distance.
Lu Wantong lightly tapped the wooden sword and walked towards the aptitude testing table with a cold expression.
She was upset.
But not because of worrying that she won't pass the assessment.
She's just afraid of not being able to connect with Bai Lian…
"Ah ah!"
"It's Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian!"
"Where? Where?"
The noise made Lu Wantong pause.
She quickly turned her head and saw a peaceable young girl come out from the Duxian sect gate, like a mountain snow lotus.
Her breathing became labored.
She is right.
This face is exactly the same as what she saw that day!
Bai Lian has arrived.
She came with great enthusiasm.
[Life is a journey of self-cultivation.]
Is there any place more suitable than the Immortality Promotion Meeting to earn skill points at this time?
Probably not.
Bai Lian had only taken a few steps when she triggered the task option three times in a row.
The task of helping someone run errands and deliver mail.
The task of having vengeance for those who suffered from usurers.
The task of encouraging those who became despairing after failing the test.
Even with three heads and six arms, Bai Lian would be too busy to handle it.
But Bai Lian has her way to solve it.
Her injury has improved greatly, and she can already create four avatars.
As long as she allocates time reasonably, she can easily cope with the tasks even if they double.
"Take it easy, take your time."
That smile, that voice, reminded Lu Wantong of that rainy day and Bai Lian.
If it were her, she would never have interacted with a distracted stranger in the rain.
But Bai Lian did it.
She not only did it, but also came out today to comfort those who failed in entering the Duxian sect.
"Is this Natural Saint?"
Lu Wantong mumbled to herself.
Bai Lian is the bright moon of the sky, and she is the withered grass on the ground.
Is it really okay for her to do something detrimental to Bai Lian for her own selfish reasons?
At this moment, Lu Wantong's heart was stirred.
