The Immortal Sect Competition is held every five years, and is usually organized by the five major sects in turn. This year it should be the venue for Tianxuan Sect. Elders and disciples will be taken to participate by the elders and disciples. Even if they don’t go to the stage to compete, it is better to watch from the side.

As one of the five major sects, Lingyun Sect naturally had to take his disciples to show off. This time, led by the Shui Jing Zhenren from Piaomiao Peak, he led more than a dozen new disciples, plus Chen Yin and Ruan Ruan, a group of nineteen people.

Mo Liuguang and Jian Zhibai had already been there during the last Immortal Sect Competition. They thought it was meaningless, so they found an excuse to leave early this time. Chen Yin didn't want to go there either, but Ruan Ruan had never been there. He was eager to join in the fun, so he had to accompany him.

The group set out from Lingyun Mountain on the flying swords and arrived at Tianxuan Sect in about half a day. The disciples in Taoist robes at the entrance of the mountain specially welcomed each other, and brought the guests to the prepared guest room to rest.

Because the Immortal Sect Competition usually takes half a month to complete, there are three processes. The first is to discuss the Tao, that is, to exchange experiences. You can talk about your understanding and pursuit of the Tao, or you can listen to other people's opinions. A small number of disciples with high understanding can make an enlightenment through a few words from others, and then advance on the spot.

Many disciples who do not participate in the competition are aimed at the discussion. Even if the opportunity for enlightenment is hard to come by, they are still willing to give it a try.

The second process is to go on stage to compete. This is the home court of the five major sects and a competition among the disciples of the disciples. Although they are both the five major sects, they are actually not convinced by each other. Guiyi Sect has always advocated the outstanding talent of Ning Jiao, a great disciple of the applause sect. Unexpectedly, the Lingyun Sect has been able to be better in all aspects.

These two sects seem to be competing with each other, and have become increasingly tit-for-tat in recent years. However, I heard that before leaving the Beihai Realm, these two sects seemed to be relaxed. Fairy Ning from Guiyi Sect also traveled with Zhenyan Daojun from Lingyun Sect, as if she was inclined to unite with powerful forces.

Later, as soon as the incident occurred in the Beihai Realm, Lu Chuan, a disciple of Guiyi Sect, was deposed, and the relationship between the two major sects fell to freezing point, even more rigid than before. And now they are all sending a message to Yan Daojun to have a connection and want to become a Taoist partner with his junior sister.

What should Fairy Ning do? There is a little news that Fairy Ning and Taoist Master Zhenyan met Weimo and even sacrificed their lives to save his life. Taoist Master Zhenyan was also grateful, and the two gradually fell in love.

Which of the two rumors is true? Except for the two major sects, we know

The disciples who are related to the situation are simply unaware of. This unsolvable and chaotic triangle relationship is also one of the concerns that many disciples of the sect who came to participate in the competition. For nothing else, they just want to eat melons.

I don’t know if Fairy Ning and Daojun Zhenyan will compete. If the two meet, there will be a good show. I secretly poke the cards and look forward to it.

Unconsciously, Ruan Ruan didn't feel anything. She was born with a lively life and had never seen the Fairy Sect Competition, so she felt novel in everything she saw.

After the Lingmen Cloud, many sects arrived one after another, and their disciples were all full of energy. Ruan Ruan knew few people and saw Meng Ji who had been with him at a glance. He stood quietly at the end of the team and disappeared among a group of people wearing white Taoist robes.

It has been several months since the last time I left, and Ruan Ruan was still very happy to see each other. She wanted to come forward and say a few words, but when she met Ning Jiao's cold eyes, she hesitated for a moment and still didn't go.

Lingyun Sect had a rift with Guiyi Sect, and she personally deprived Lu Chuan of spiritual roots. I believe that even if Guiyi Sect doesn't regard her as an enemy, she will be very resistant. If she rashly goes to find Meng Ji, let alone whether Meng Ji has any complaints about her, Guiyi Sect will have any objections to him.

She didn't want to cause trouble for Meng Ji. After looking at it for a while, she turned around and returned to the residence arranged by Tianxuan Sect for their Lingyun Sect disciples. It was a very large yard with eight empty rooms that could accommodate eight people. Ruan Ruan picked up a room near the corner of the wall, thinking about being more purified. Chen Yin lived next to her, and the other six rooms were also disciples of Lingyun Sect.

The elders led by each sect all have their own independent small courtyard, so Shui Jing Zhenren does not live with them.

This makes it convenient for the disciples to act. After all, those who come in and out have to meet an elder with a very deep cultivation are quite oppressive. Especially Elder Shuijing is still strange. He is as quiet as a virgin and as moving as a rabbit. Compared with those serious elders, he is not an ordinary person.

The disciples on Piaomiao Peak are used to the untuned appearance of their master, but other disciples always feel a little twisted. Ruan Ruan likes Shui Jing Zhenren quite a bit. Unlike her master's Wuwang and aloof temperament, Shui Jing Zhenren is just a jumping old man.

When he was generous, he would not say anything blamed even if he exploded his pharmacy. If he became stingy and caught a free-range chicken on the back mountain, he would have to carry the whisk and step on the auspicious clouds to chase him closely.

Coincidentally

Ruan Ruan has done all these things. She still remembers that this little old man chased her entire Lingyun Mountain for a wilted spirit chicken.

When Ruan Ruan thought of the ridiculous things she had done, she felt that it had been a long time since she thought it had passed. She sighed that time was fleeting, and she lay on the bed and fell asleep quickly.

No dreams all night.

The sect discussion began the next day, Ruan Ruan was not interested in lying in a small room and didn't even come out. Master Shui Jing knew that she had always been lazy and didn't force her. Chen Yin was not so lucky. He was the senior brother of the sect and the highest cultivation among his peers. He could not get any other links. If he didn't go to the discussion, it would be a bit rude.

Besides, the disciples of other sects were very excited and were eager to communicate with Taoist Lord Zhenyan. So, when Elder Shuijing came to find someone in person, Chen Yin followed him reluctantly.

The large yard was empty, leaving Ruan Ruan alone with a little quiet. She rolled around on the bed for a few times, and saw that it had been almost half a day and no one had come back, so she planned to go out to find something to eat.

The roads in the Tianxuan Sect were tortuous and there were many mechanisms. Not long after walking to the Chentang, Ruan Ruan was a little confused. Fortunately, she saw someone standing not far away, wearing a unified Taoist robe, probably a disciple of the sect who had not participated in the discussion of Taoism, so she hurried forward and asked for directions: "Fellow Taoist, how can you get to the Chentang?"

The back, standing by the pool, froze. She didn't turn around for a long time, nor did she make a sound. Ruan Ruan was puzzled. After asking for the second time but still not getting an answer, she was not obsessed and turned around and left. She thought that the person might not want to be disturbed so much.

"Fairy Ruan, please stay." Just as he turned around and walked a few steps, a voice came from behind, and it sounded familiar. Ruan Ruan turned around and saw Meng Ji's slightly thin face.

"You..." Before she could be happy, her eyes fell on the empty sleeves of the boy opposite, and her eyes suddenly appeared in her shock, and her voice suddenly became hoarse: "What's your right hand..."

Why is it gone?

She couldn't bear to say the second half of the sentence. No matter how the sword cultivator practiced the unity of human and sword, if the right hand holding the sword disappeared, how could he use the sword technique to go further and further in the sword path? Although the friendship was not deep, Ruan Ruan still felt a little sad and regretted this young man who was only a few years older than him.

I noticed the girl's surprised and regretful gaze, Meng Ji smiled bitterly. He was bored, but he didn't want to bring this suppressed emotion to this bright girl. He simply said: "I was accidentally hurt during the experience.

Yes. The situation was dangerous and it was great to be able to save your life."

This sentence was indeed what he said in his heart. When he was bitten by a puppet in Yecheng, he really thought he was dead and he didn't expect to be able to return to Guiyi Sect alive. When he woke up and saw that his right arm was gone, he only wrapped a thick layer of cloth strips on the broken end, he could not accept it for a time, and even wanted to end his life extremely.

He is the young disciple of the head and has his own pursuit and arrogance in the path of immortal cultivation. He is a sword cultivator. If he loses his right arm, he will never be able to hold the sword again. What is the difference between this and death?

Unable tolerate other people's strange eyes and even the ridicule of turning their backs, Meng Ji collapsed several times. During that difficult period, the biggest blow to him, and the most heartbreaking thing was that his master did not understand.

Senior sister Ning Jiao pushed him out to resist the puppet in a critical moment, causing him to break his hand. How could Meng Ji forget this deep hatred? When he woke up, he asked to see his master and tell the whole story one by one, just to seek justice.

However, the justice he wanted could never be obtained. His master, who usually looked like justice, just stood in the hall and looked down at him, and casually exposed Ning Jiao's harm to his fellow disciples, warning him to get along well with his fellow disciples, and not to spread the joke that people would see Guiyi Sect.

What's more, Ning Jiao is the most talented disciple of Guiyi Sect. As the leader of the sect who knows the best of choices, it seems reasonable to abandon the useless disciple for the sake of the subsequent development of the sect.

After hearing this, Meng Ji had nothing to understand? Master asked him to ruin this matter and not mention it to anyone. After all, if the incident of the same sects being ill-fated, it would not only be Ning Jiao, but Gui Yisect would also lose face and would not be able to raise his head in the world of immortal cultivation.

The advantage he can get is to retain the identity of the head disciple, continue to stay in the same school, and treat all the benefits from the old.

Master thinks this is the best arrangement. Disciples who cannot practice are not qualified to occupy the identity and resources of their personal disciples. He is an exception. So he should be grateful and at the mercy of others.

When faced with this situation, someone might have gritted their teeth and accepted it. After all, except Guiyi Sect, no other sect would accept a useless person. But he is Meng Ji, so how could he be willing to accept it if he pressed his head to ask him to recognize it?

He also tried to reveal this matter to other peak masters in a vague way, but no one believed him. What's worse, he was disappointed with him and condemned him for ruining his heart.

Ning Jiao's image outside has always been noble and honest, and she also takes care of her junior brothers and sisters. This sudden emerged that she said she was abusing her fellow disciples, which was really hard to believe. Moreover, he was still a legitimate junior brother, but his cultivation was always suppressed by Ning Jiao, and he became jealous and slandered her. This statement is even more acceptable.

Slowly, Meng Ji's aura was smoothed out, and he realized that he could not fight Ning Jiao. However, he was unwilling to stay in such a hypocritical sect anymore, and he wanted to leave. As the Immortal Sect Competition was approaching, he wanted to see Ruan Ruan again, so he followed him.

This girl who had just met the hot sun, hadn't seen her for a few months, and her facial features were longer and her appearance became more beautiful and charming. However, he was no longer the arrogant junior brother of Guiyi Sect. When he saw his old friend again, he suddenly became timid.

Fortunately, there was nothing else in the girl's eyes when she looked at him, which made Meng Ji breathe a sigh of relief and was able to calm down and say a few words.

"In time, the left hand can be practiced as flexible as the right hand, and there is no need to be too obsessed with the past." Seeing that Meng Ji had no detailed plan, Ruan Ruan was not able to ask questions, so she had to try to comfort her.

Upon hearing this, Meng Ji smiled, and the two of them were speechless for a moment, and the surroundings became quiet.

"Fairy Ruan asked me about the location of the kitchen hall before. I was distracted at that time, so I couldn't answer in time." Meng Ji explained softly, stretched out his left hand and pointed to a winding path, and said with a smile: "Follow this road, you can see the plaque of the kitchen hall in about ten minutes. This time, I will definitely not lose my direction again. Fairy Ruan, please go there with confidence."

Thank you very much. Ruan Ruan just walked forward and suddenly thought of something, then turned back and asked, "Don't you go to the kitchen hall for dinner?"

"Fairy, let's go, I'll come again later." Meng Ji stood there and nodded at her, without moving an inch.

So Ruan Ruan left. She didn't look back, so she didn't see the lost boy looking at her back as he walked away, and the reluctance in her eyes showed her reluctance.

*

After lunch alone, he returned to the yard happily, lay on the bed and waited until night fell. The wooden door of the yard made a "creaking" sound, and Ruan Ruan climbed up from the bed and left the room excitedly.

"Senior Brother!" She shouted happily, and Sa Ya ran to the man, her eyes brightened.

Shen Yin curled his lips, lit the steamed chicken wrapped in lotus leaves in his hand, and put it on the stone table in the yard: "Uncle Shuijing took his disciples to the dining hall. I took advantage of my time to go to the foot of the mountain. I heard that the local lotus leaf chicken was very unique, so I bought it for you to try it.

”

Just hearing people, Ruan Ruan's saliva couldn't help but flow down. She pinched the layer of lotus leaves outside and peeled it open. A strong chicken fragrance wafted out, mixed with the fragrance of lotus leaves, which smelled but was not greasy. The meat was also tender and juicy in her mouth, and it was not at all.

"It's delicious!" Ruan Ruan squinted her eyes, ate several pieces in a row, and handed one of the chicken legs to Shen Yin: "Senior Brother, too."

Shen Yin shook his head and refused. Ruan Ruan had to put the chicken legs back and ate it slowly. The chicken bones next to him piled up more and more, and the whole chicken that was not small was wiped out soon.

After licking her fingers, Ruan Ruan felt as if she was overeating. When she met the inquiring gaze of the man sitting opposite her, she felt embarrassed: "I'm hungry, so I ate a little more."

This should be more than a little bit? Chen Yin was silent for a moment, and cleaned up the chicken bones on the table. Then he brushed his sleeves and sat upright, staring at the girl with unprecedented seriousness: "When will we hold a ceremony to sacrifice the sky and officially become a Taoist couple?"

"Cough cough cough." Ruan Ruan was choked by the tea in her mouth. She hurriedly put down the teacup, looked at the man with a calm expression in disbelief, and asked in a trembling voice: "Did I hear it wrong?"

"You heard it right. I'm asking you when will you be a Taoist partner with me?" Chen Yin's face remained unchanged, his eyes were dark and he could not see any emotion.

Frightened by these words, Ruan Ruan trembled and poured herself a cup of tea. When her mood calmed down a little, her expression was a little entangled: "It seems a bit sudden?"

"Don't you?" The man frowned, his eyes deeper, and his eyes looked at the girl as if he wanted to remove her and eat her into his stomach.

"Not." Ruan Ruan is not a pretentious person. She feels that she likes Shen Yin and is willing to be with him. However, the matter of becoming a Taoist partner was brought up too suddenly, and her thoughts were a little unable to keep up for a while.

More importantly, Chen Yin never seemed to have liked her, nor did he say anything that was heart-wrenching. If she just agreed like this, wouldn’t she suffer a lot?

"What does that mean?" The man stretched his frown and relaxed his tense body, and his handsome face was a little confused.

Two red clouds flew on the girl's face, and her voice was very soft: "Do you like me?"

After saying that, before the man's answer was over, he was so shy that he covered his little face with his white claws, and his eyes were exposed to his fingers and observing the man's expression.

What disappointed her was that Chen Yin did not

No abnormality even made her face red. She just lowered her eyes and pondered for a while, then picked her up horizontally, with a magnetic voice with a smile that was not easy to detect: "I think what you do is more sincere than what you say."

Then he glanced at the girl's room and pointed: "What do you think the younger sister think?"

“…”

As the man said, he raised his foot and wanted to go to the room. It happened that other disciples of Lingyun Sect came back after eating. He opened the door with a bang, and six pairs of eyes suddenly stared. His ambiguous gaze swept back and forth between Shen Yin and Ruan Ruan, and all the disciples looked clear.

"Oh, I have to go back to my room and meditate quickly to accumulate strength for tomorrow." A piece of Taoist robe floated by, and the person was gone.

"Yes, yes, yes, I have to go back and practice."

The six people at the door instantly ran away. Before leaving, they closed the gate of the yard very considerately and built their own rooms into a barrier. In this way, even if the senior brother and the junior sister were tortured, they could not hear any movement.

"..." Ruan Ruan was embarrassed by being hit by someone. She struggled to get out of Chen Yin's arms and kicked the leg of a man who was as stable as an old dog. Then she ran back to her room and closed the door from inside.

Chen Yin's white robe, who was kicked, had a shallow footprint on the hem of his white robe. He stared at the footprint for a while, his eyes were as soft as if he was admiring a beautiful flower. He stood alone in the yard for a long time before he raised his hand and applied a cleansing technique to himself, and walked into the room.

Ruan Ruan did not participate in the discussion of Taoism in the previous few days, and she did not want to play in the subsequent competition, but wanted to watch the charm of other disciples from the stage.
To be continued...
