After reading it, Pei Jing was thoughtful.
Chen Xu had suggested before that he should find a Taoist partner, but he jokingly refused.
Now that he had been in Yinghui Peak for several months without any progress, he began to ponder the feasibility of this matter - experiencing the tribulation of love might be a way to enter the world. But after pondering for a while, he shook his head and disagreed.
It is unfair to seek love for a purpose, but it is even more ridiculous to say it directly. What do you think? - "My master wants me to return to my original nature and experience the seven emotions and six desires in the world. I think that having a relationship with you may be rewarding. What do you think?"
Pei Jing thought about it and decided that even if he laughed out loud first, what would it matter? He was afraid that no one would be happy with it.
It depends on fate. Marriage can't be forced.
He slowly loosened the rice paper in his hand and let it roll back into the thousands of paper rolls. Pei Jing came to Tiange today for another reason. He used his spiritual sense to slowly write the three words "Thousand Faces Woman" on a piece of paper. Ji Wuduan also had a vague understanding of the affairs of Tianyan City. In a place like Tiange where all kinds of people come together, I wonder if there are hermits and masters who know something.
Even though his master repeatedly reminded him, Pei Jing felt that he would go to Tianyan City one day.
Following the paper upwards, the sight sees a sea of books in the Sky Pavilion, with golden light floating in the air.
Pei Jing's heart slowly calmed down.
After leaving Tibet and returning to Yinghui Peak, most of the disciples practiced hard on their rest days. After all, it would be a battle that would decide their fate soon. Even among the outer seventy-two peaks, there were upper, middle, and lower levels. If they performed well in this battle, they might be noticed by the outer peak Jindan elders and be accepted as disciples directly.
After class one day, Pei Jing asked Chu Junyu about his future plans and which outer peak he wanted to enter. He thought Chu Junyu would reply coldly, "Whatever" or simply not answer, but he lowered his eyes and remained silent for a few seconds before saying, "How about Tianqian Peak?"
Pei Jing was stunned and almost swallowed the candy in his mouth. He pinched his neck for a long time to recover. He was surprised and amused. He pretended to be unbelievable and said in a terrified tone: "Are you crazy? Tianqian Peak is where the master is - you want to become his disciple?"
Chu Junyu lowered his head and turned a page of the book with his fingers: "Hmm."
Pei Jing: "Master Yunxiao only accepts one disciple in his lifetime. If you do this, Pei Yuzhi will not agree."
Chu Junyu said: "It has nothing to do with him."
Pei Jing curled his lips: "Why doesn't it matter?" Even if the master makes an exception and accepts you, I will not acknowledge you as my junior brother.
Chu Junyu lowered his head, his light-colored eyes were pure and beautiful under the light, with a thin layer of ice under his eyes, and his tone was calm: "If possible, I don't want to see him in this life."
Pei Jing was startled: "Why?"
Chu Junyu lowered his eyes. The boy's face was transparently white, his eyelashes were long, and his tone was extremely cold: "Stupid."
Pei Jing: “…”
I really want to see Chu Junyu’s expression when he knows his identity.
He and Chu Junyu lived in the same room and shared a table. In the eyes of outsiders, they were very close. Chu Junyu was a special person in the entire Yinghui Peak, a flower on the mountain top, a strong man that everyone was in awe of and dared only watch from afar.
Pei Jing, who was close to him, also became special, but in another way. In addition to the label of using the backdoor, he was also labeled as a sycophant.
When Xu Jing quietly told him about these things, Pei Jing only had one reaction: "Are you guys that free?"
Xu Jing: "... I paid special attention to what was said about you and explained it to them, but they didn't listen."
Pei Jing patted his shoulder and said, "That's thoughtful. Go back and tell them to be careful in the secret trial before the competition."
Xu Jing asked blankly: "Why?"
Pei Jing smiled: "Because beating up fellow disciples in the secret realm is not punishable."
Xu Jing: “… ”
Yunxiao's rules are rigid and unchanging.
The sect's selection requires crossing a suspension bridge, new disciples must study at Yinghui Peak for a year, and there are even secret trials before the outer peak competition a year later. These are all set rules.
The secret realm is inside Yunxiao, called Changtian. It is said to be the cave left by the ancestor Yunxiao Taoist before he ascended to heaven. It is unpredictable and contains countless rare treasures. Most disciples may only have one chance to enter Changtian in their lifetime, and that is now - when they first enter Yunxiao and leave Yinghui Peak to officially enter the outer peak.
The role of Changtian Secret Realm varies from person to person. Some people get great opportunities here, while others just see the scenery. Pei Jing still remembers that when he first entered Changtian, he accidentally entered a valley and unexpectedly encountered the spirit of his ancestors. He met Taoist Yunxiao twice, once on the suspension bridge and once in the Changtian Secret Realm. In other words, he can be regarded as the inheritor appointed by the ancestors.
Before they left, the elder said to them, "The Changtian Secret Realm was left by our ancestors. There are no ferocious beasts and no unknown dangers. It is very safe for you. Entering the secret realm is just an opportunity for you. If you get it, you will be happy. If not, there is no need to be dejected. In your future cultivation, you will enter countless secret realms, and there will always be opportunities."
Changtian Secret Realm is located next to Wuji Peak.
The first peak in the sky.
Sitting on the cloud crane.
This was the first time for many disciples to enter the Inner Peak. Seeing the endless rays of light spreading across the mountain, they all cried out in surprise. One person pointed to the tallest and steepest peak in the center of the clouds in Chaoyangli and exclaimed, "That's Tianqian Peak!"
All the disciples on Yunhe looked up, the sunlight falling into their eyes, filled with excitement and shock.
From a distance, Tianqian Peak looks like a sword drawn from its sheath, and the light falling on the top of the mountain looks like a thin layer of snow.
Pei Jing still remembered what Chu Junyu said that day. Although this kid was rude, he was really kind to Zhang Yiming. He was grateful and affectionate. Looking at Tianqian Peak, Pei Jing tilted his head and said to him: "Look, Tianqian Peak."
Chu Junyu sat quietly, lowered his head, and wiped the sword with a handkerchief: "Oh."
Pei Jing raised his eyebrows: "Isn't that the place you want to go? Why are you so cold?"
However, when he got closer, his attention was immediately attracted by the sword in Chu Junyu's hand - the blade was clear and white as autumn frost, stained with a layer of red glow. Unlike his overall coldness, it looked more like a sword belonging to a woman, and that of a gentle and graceful woman, as fair as autumn water.
Pei Jing, who had always believed that the sword was like the man himself, was stunned.
He seldom saw Chu Junyu use a sword, so he had never looked at his sword carefully, but from the few times he saw it, Chu Junyu's sword was always extremely sharp and bloody, which was completely different from the appearance of this sword.
He came very close.
After Chu Junyu finished wiping, he raised his head and the tip of his nose just brushed his lips.
Slightly cool, like a piece of snow falling between the lips.
