Elder Liu did not answer. He just stared into Luo Jinxiao's eyes, wondering what he was thinking.
Luo Jinxiao felt uneasy when he looked at her. She quickly lowered her head and stopped looking at him. She always felt that his eyes, as deep as an ancient well, could see through her past and present life.
But this was of course just an illusion, because Elder Liu finally answered: "Yes, Golden Core Stage 2."
Golden Elixir Phase II!
It was her cultivation in her previous life. In this way, she was not naked with only a soul, nor did she lose her cultivation. It was just that no one knew where she was hiding for a while.
"But your immortal veins are very chaotic now, and the spiritual energy in your body doesn't seem to be born from the same root. This is the first time I have seen such a strange thing in my long life." Elder Liu said slowly, "Could it be that by some coincidence, you have received divine help?"
Luo Jinxiao was almost overwhelmed by ecstasy, but after hearing what Elder Liu said, he suddenly calmed down.
Elder Liu was right. It was not normal for a waste to not only have immortal veins in a short period of time but also possess the cultivation level of the second stage of Golden Core. No wonder he told her to hide it well.
Elder Liu saw Luo Jinxiao's expression and knew that she had something to hide. He suddenly turned around and said with his back to Luo Jinxiao: "Forget it, I don't care about all that. You just need to remember what I said. Although the mountain gate is small, it has all the five poisons and not all immortals are good people. Remember, be careful of them."
Luo Jinxiao heard his words and knew that he was giving instructions, so he quickly straightened his attitude and bowed, saying, "Thank you for your teachings, Master."
"You are quite obedient." Elder Liu seemed to be in a very happy mood. He suddenly raised his hand, and a green light covered Luo Jinxiao's body, and then dissipated into the air.
"This is a secret technique. Others can no longer see your level of cultivation." After Elder Liu finished speaking, he left with his hands behind his back, and the door quietly closed in front of Luo Jinxiao.
Luo Jinxiao looked at her hands again. She trembled slightly at first, then suddenly curled her lips and even laughed out loud.
She hadn't been so excited for a long time. The most joyful thing in life is to get back what you lost.
"Golden Elixir Stage Two." She muttered to herself. Silvery-white light gathered in her palm, almost solidifying into a solid, but still rolling in, as if inexhaustible.
The level of cultivation is divided into several levels, namely Qi Refining, Foundation Building, Void Dust, Golden Elixir, Nascent Soul, Spirit Transformation, and Tribulation Crossing. Each level is divided into three stages, and the higher you go, the more difficult it becomes.
The tribulation period is the most dangerous, and many people stop here or die here. It is rare to see people in the period after that. Some have almost reached the state of perfection, and Luo Jinxiao has not seen many of them.
Her second stage of Golden Core was already a level that no one at her age could reach.
The female devil seems to be in the first stage of transformation. Two more stages will lead to the tribulation. She is prone to demonic possession. When she reaches the tribulation, won’t she...
Luo Jinxiao shook her head violently. At this moment, she wondered what the female devil wanted to do.
She was so excited that in order to prevent herself from getting carried away, she often stayed in a corner alone during the next few days' classes, even though she attended with Lu Fanzhi and the others. What the teacher said was boring, as it was mostly things she knew by heart. So in the eyes of others, she was a waste who not only did not practice, but also did not even listen to the most basic lectures.
Then there was another round of rumors. Some people said that she had given up long ago, and some people said that Wuhuimen was about to kick her out. Later, even when she had breakfast, there were people pointing fingers behind her, either expressing regret or gloating.
Luo Jinxiao saw it all, but was too lazy to pay attention.
That day, she was having dinner face to face with Lu Fanzhi when she heard a group of people coming towards them in the distance, making a lot of noise.
The dining area is not big, like an ice room, surrounded by light blue jade. In the center are several large, shiny stones that seem to have grown from the ground, serving as tables.
It is said that this was built by the sect leader himself. There is also a legend here that the sect leader built it for his beloved. That person had low cultivation level, but loved to eat. The sect leader loved her deeply, so he went to the distant Changmi to dig jade full of spiritual energy. It was very cold there, with snow all year round. After several trips back and forth, he finally built this ice room made of jade.
From then on, the beloved one could practice while eating.
When hearing this story for the first time, Luo Jinxiao laughed so hard that she fell backwards, but Lu Fanzhi on the side held her chin and sighed repeatedly. Luo Jinxiao laughed and asked her why.
Lu Fanzhi told her the ending of the story. Later, in a great war, the woman died while saving the sect leader. The sect leader sat on the battlefield for three days, and then went up to Nandou Peak alone and never came down again.
Everyone knows that the leader of Wuhui Sect sacrificed his life for love, and from then on Nandou Peak became the forbidden area of Wuhui Sect, and no one was allowed to enter.
Luo Jinxiao stopped laughing after hearing this. He was stunned for a long time and muttered, "There are always passionate people in this world."
She was eating when the crowd gathered around her. Leading the crowd was Yan Ying. On her left shoulder sat a peacock, with its head held high, looking as ostentatious as she was.
Luo Jinxiao was afraid of conflicts with others these days, and he couldn't avoid her, so he put down his chopsticks and tried to run away, but he was stopped by someone.
"Hey, useless piece of shit, when are you going to get out of Wuhui Sect? Or do you want to just get knocked out and carried out on the day of the competition?" Yanying's sarcastic words sounded, causing a burst of laughter.
Seeing this, Lu Fanzhi dropped her bowl and chopsticks, stood up, raised her head and asked, "What do you want to do now? I warn you, private fighting is not allowed in Wuhui Sect. If you dare to do anything, you will be kicked out!"
"She is not worthy enough to do anything to her." Yan Ying touched the peacock on her shoulder with one hand and looked at Luo Jinxiao with contempt.
"Then what do you mean?" Luo Jinxiao turned around and said coldly.
Yan Ying was about to speak when suddenly a strong wind came and swirled around Luo Jinxiao. Then a light suddenly appeared and pushed all the people who were blocking Luo Jinxiao to the sides. Suddenly, everyone fell to the ground and the scene was in great chaos.
Luo Ning appeared behind them at some point. She walked forward angrily, stretched out her hand to pull Lu Fanzhi away, and stood in front of Yan Ying. She was wearing a goose yellow dress with her cuffs tied with white ribbons, which made her look fresh and elegant.
Her face was originally bright and gentle, and even now when she frowned, there was no hostility in her expression.
Yan Ying's eyes lit up slightly, but soon returned to contempt, glancing down at them condescendingly: "It's you, why, you want to protect your useless sister again?"
Luo Ning swung her hand, summoned a sword, pointed it directly at Yan Ying's throat, and said sternly: "If you really can't stand me, then come at me. What's the point of bullying my sister!"
Looking at the familiar yet hostile appearance of the two of them, Luo Jinxiao finally figured out what the grudge between herself and this woman named Yan Ying was.
Yan Ying opened her mouth as if she wanted to speak, but nothing came out. Just when things were getting tense, someone shouted to stop them.
The man's voice was calm and indifferent, but when it reached people's ears, it made their hearts tighten, as if a thousand-pound rock was pressing down on them, and they had to listen.
Luo Jinxiao turned around and happened to meet Qu Weiyin's eyes, but she only glanced at Luo Jinxiao for a moment and then passed by her.
A faint fragrance swept across her nose, and Luo Jinxiao couldn't help but hold her breath. When she came to her senses, Qu Weiyin was already standing between them, his eyes scanning them one by one.
"It's inappropriate to make a scene here."
Yan Ying suddenly didn't dare to speak, and the others also lowered their heads and acted obediently, only Luo Ning was still glaring at them angrily.
"To answer Junior-Master Qu, she was the one who bullied my sister." Luo Ning put away his sword and pointed at Yan Ying, looking very aggrieved.
"She's talking nonsense, I didn't do it!" Yan Ying hurriedly defended herself, but under Qu Weiyin's gaze, her defense soon died down. For some reason, she had always been fearless since she was a child, but when facing Qu Weiyin, she would feel guilty and scared from the bottom of her heart.
"You are causing trouble and picking quarrels. You will be confined for three days and asked to reflect on your mistakes. As for you, if you do it again next time, you will be eliminated from the competition in the next few days." Qu Weiyin said, and gave Yanying a warning look, "Why don't you disperse?"
Everyone immediately scattered like birds. Yan Ying looked aggrieved. She glared at Luo Ning angrily, then ran away.
"Sister, don't bother with her. Ever since we two had a grudge, she can't beat me, so she always takes it out on you. It's really hateful." Luo Ning stuck out her tongue at Yan Ying and turned back to comfort Luo Jinxiao.
Luo Jinxiao shook her head and smiled at Luo Ning. She naturally would not bother with these trivial matters.
Luo Jinxiao was just about to thank Qu Weiyin when he saw her staring at his waist. He quickly lowered his head and saw the purse that he used to hold the sword last time. Luo Jinxiao thought it was quite exquisite and it would be a pity to throw it away, so he hung it on his belt and used it as a purse.
"This is..." Qu Weiyin stared at it for a while, then said slowly.
"This is the purse that Junior Master Uncle gave me when he gave me the sword. Thank you, Junior Master Uncle." Luo Jinxiao patted the bulging purse and smiled slightly, with curved eyebrows and eyes as bright as a crescent moon.
Qu Weiyin didn't know whether she was thanking Xie Jian or Xie Nahebao. She nodded randomly with no expression on her face, but her heart was in a mess.
She hesitated for a moment, then suddenly said, "I bought that purse when I came down the mountain."
Luo Jinxiao didn't know why she suddenly said this. He was stunned for a moment and blinked.
"It's very beautiful." She said blankly, "I like it very much."
"Yeah." Qu Weiyin nodded. She was still staring at the bright red hibiscus flower on the purse, which matched the girl's light blue dress very well.
She wanted to say that it was a purse she bought casually, not embroidered by herself and not valuable, so there was no need to wear it, but the words were stuck on her lips.
Then she thought again, what if Luo Jinxiao was just wearing it for fun and didn't care at all whether it was embroidered by her
She felt her cheeks were a little red, and the girl's smile seemed to be covered by a layer of mist in her eyes. She couldn't help feeling a little angry, and she didn't even know why she was angry.
Then she laughed at herself. She had lived for thousands of years, but she was actually angry about something so ridiculous that it was ridiculous to even say it.
"It's okay. I'll go teach." After she said that, she turned and left, leaving Luo Jinxiao standing there scratching his head.
"Uncle Junior Master, please wait!" Luo Jinxiao suddenly called her, ran to Qu Weiyin and stopped her, "Uncle Junior Master, this is for you."
Luo Jinxiao took out another purse from her purse, with a crooked smiley face on it, and handed it to Qu Weiyin with both hands.
"This is what I embroidered two days ago. I received your sword, and I don't have much to thank you for. This is a small token of my appreciation." Luo Jinxiao was still a little worried, afraid that Qu Weiyin didn't want this token of appreciation at all.
Qu Weiyin was stunned for a moment, then picked up the purse and said in a disdainful tone: "It's so ugly."
Then he stuffed it into his arms and disappeared instantly.
