16 016, [Target: Back Mountain]

Initially, when this lucky fellow activated a hidden quest and got accepted into the Demon Sect’s Small Study in the back mountain, the game forum of “Heavenly Dust” just blew up!

While we’re still struggling for trivial benefits, you’ve already secured the most influential backing?!

Of course, days later, the news about this brother’s sudden death caused an uproar in the game forum once again…

It turned out that maintaining a healthy body is indeed essential.

What Lu Xun desired was a “perfect start”, which was to enter the Small Study at the back mountain!

How long has he been here? Now they want to capture him to be a magic cauldron or a mount, this ID is freaking toxic!

He could feel the deep malice from the women of this world towards him!

Improving strength was a matter of utmost urgency.

As for his body… it was exceptionally healthy.

The early morning physiological response of a male body between 4 and 7 o’clock told him: your body is in good shape.

No wonder they want to use me as a magic cauldron, the heat is indeed abundant.

Originally, he planned to find a way to come to the Demon Sect’s territory first, then try to obtain the qualification to be the master’s disciple through some special means.

But unexpectedly he bumped into Mao Nanbei, which made everything much easier.

At this moment, Mao Nanbei wanted to take Lu Xun as a mount.

And at this moment this jerk, took her as a tool-man.

A few hours later, Mao Nanbei, who was controlling a paper crane in mid-air, and Murong Yan, who was on a flying sword, paused their flight.

In front of them were several peaks where the Demon Sect was located, surrounded by the Demon Sect’s Mountain Protection Array.

Anyone who recklessly enters without permission would be blasted to dust!

It was said that this array was designed by the master. To this date, no one had ever dared to intrude into the array and left unscathed, even the giants in the Cultivation World couldn’t, which added a layer of mystery to the master’s true power.

Both Murong Yan and Mao Nanbei had Sect tokens that allowed them to enter and exit freely, so the array would not stop them.

Besides, Mao Nanbei’s token was quite special. Even if she took Lu Xun and Ji Li, two strangers, it wasn’t a problem.

The paper crane flew forward, heading straight towards a mountain peak.

Ji Li was startled as it seemed they were about to crash into the mountain.

But with a flash of brilliance, the scene before their eyes changed instantly.

A continuous chain of peaks stretched across the horizon, creating a spectacular sight.

The peak they were flying towards was named Lead Peak.

On top of the mountain was a large platform, which seemed to have been sliced flat by a sword, looking somewhat abrupt yet strangely blending in with the surrounding scenery.

This mountain gave people a feeling of loneliness. It looked like… a sword sheath?

The person who sliced the mountain initially must have been a Sword Dao master. Of course, that is an obvious statement, a non-master wouldn’t have been able to slice the mountain.

“Do you think this mountain peak looks like a sword sheath?” Murong Yan asked while chuckling, directing the question at Lu Xun and Ji Li.

Both nodded in response.

Murong Yan added, “That is also what I felt when I first joined the Sect.”

The paper crane landed on the summit of Lead Peak, and Murong Yan quickly put her flying sword away.

The patrolling disciples on the Lead Peak immediately approached saying, “Welcome back, Young Elder.”

Then they said to Murong Yan, “Sister Murong.”

Mao Nanbei sat on the paper crane and nodded casually, then moved her tiny buttock a little to jump off the paper crane.

She made a gesture and the paper crane shrank again, landing in her hand to be put away into her storage ring.

She told the leading patrol disciple, “Go call Elder Qiu Shui for me, tell him that I brought back a promising seedling.”

“Yes.” This nameless supporting role of a disciple immediately left to carry out the order.

The remaining patrolling disciples started eyeing Lu Xun and Ji Li.

This Young Elder really brought back a beautiful girl… Wait! Why does this guy look even better?!

Seems like there were no men who could compete with him in the entire Demon Sect.

Lu Xun now seemed to be reporting for a new school term. On his first day, he had already outshone the previous class idols, grade idols, and school idols…

Back in his student days, such an existence would have definitely gotten the spontaneous attention of all the older female students.

The Outer Sect Elder, named Qiu Shui, quickly arrived.

She had a basic understanding of Mao Nanbei’s cheeky nature. If the cheeky loli said the seedling was good, then it must be an Immortal Seedling!

Just not sure if the good seedling she was talking about referred to this pretty girl or this… wow, he’s handsome too!

As the head elder of the Outer Sect, Qiu Shui oversaw all the affairs of the Outer Sect and all its personnel.

Though the number of disciples of the Demonic Evil Cultivators couldn’t compare to the Righteous Sects, there were still quite a few.

Among all these disciples, she had never seen a more handsome man!

“The good seedling I mentioned is her.” Mao Nanbei timely pointed at Ji Li, not mentioning Lu Xun.

According to regulations, new disciples needed to have their cultivation aptitude tested again. With many people around, if Ji Li tested good and Lu Xun, who was poorer, tested bad, it would be somewhat embarrassing. Hence, Mao Nanbei was saving face for her future mount.

In many fantasy novels, cultivators are often shown to ascertain others’ aptitude at a glance, which is actually a flawed concept.

If that were the case, couldn’t they just carpet search around the world and gather all geniuses under their sects?

Just a glance and it won’t take any effort.

In “Heavenly Dust”, specific techniques were required to ascertain someone’s aptitude. The method that Murong Yan used previously was one of them.

Qiu Shui Elder activated her technique and lightly tapped Ji Li’s forehead. Eight ripples formed and floated in the air, which were particularly beautiful.

“We found a treasure!” Elder Qiu Shui couldn’t help but laugh.

In no way did she think that the usually unreliable Young Elder would actually bring back a treasure this time!

Elder Qiu Shui’s gaze at Mao Nanbei was different now. But while looking at her, her eyes couldn’t help but fall on Lu Xun again.

“How about this one?” She asked.

Mao Nanbei flicked her hand, the golden bell on her wrist lightly ringing, and said, “He doesn’t need it.”

“Alright.” Although Qiu Shui Elder didn’t quite understand, she nodded anyway.

Mao Nanbei jumped up and sat on Murong Yan’s shoulder, swaying her little feet in the air, she asked Lu Xun, “Didn’t you say you wanted to take a look at the Demon Sect first? Now you’ve seen it, what do you think?”

Damned loli! She’s still young but only focuses on finding a mount!

Lu Xun asked, “If I want to become a disciple of the Demon Sect, just passing the Outer Sect’s test will suffice, right?”

“Yes.” Murong Yan answered hurriedly, followed by a dorky smile.

Mao Nanbei glared at her, so Murong Yan laughed even more dorkily.

If Lu Xun were to become a disciple of the Demon Sect, then Mao Nanbei would have to give up the idea of making him a mount.

A Young Elder taking her junior from the same sect as a mount?!

Wouldn’t that embarrass the elders if word got out?!

Although Lu Xun’s cultivation aptitude wasn’t great, it still met the minimal standards to cultivate. If he had other strengths, he may have a chance of being accepted into the sect.

Upon hearing that, Lu Xun nodded slightly. However, his next sentence left everyone present dumbfounded.

He said:

-“Then… what if I want to become the master’s disciple?”

…
