It whimpered and covered its face with its paws.
Luo Jinxiao shook her head and stopped trying to understand the mind of a ferocious beast. She held the purse in front of her eyes. Although the fabric was luxurious, the embroidery on it was not as fine and perfect as before. It must have been hand-embroidered without a doubt.
I didn’t expect Qu Weiyin to have such skills, Luo Jinxiao thought with a smile.
For some time afterwards, she stayed alone in Elder Liu's courtyard, and did not go out except to attend classes. In just over ten days, she had practiced the skills given by Elder Liu to the second level.
However, she tried several times to ask Elder Liu what this technique was, but was evaded every time. He only told her to practice it well, as it would be of great use in the future.
The magic sword seemed to have originally belonged to her. It was very handy and powerful. However, Luo Jinxiao did not dare to use it too frequently because every time she gathered spiritual energy into it, she always felt an undercurrent surging, as if the magic sword itself had a life.
There is also a hint of evil in it, which makes people suspicious.
During the class that day, she was still hiding in the corner and reading boredly as usual, when she was suddenly hit on the head by a teacup, and there was laughter all around.
Luo Jinxiao felt pain and subconsciously covered his forehead with his hand. He straightened up and happened to meet the eyes of Elder Mei, who was looking angry. He quickly closed the book in his hand.
"Luo Jinxiao, tell me what I said just now." Elder Mei said angrily.
Luo Jinxiao quickly stood up, opened his mouth to speak but stopped himself, and secretly lifted Lu Fanzhi's leg, indicating that she should give him a hint.
Lu Fanzhi covered her mouth and whispered, "Ten Directions Grand Gathering."
Luo Jinxiao then repeated it exactly as he had imagined, although he had no idea what this Ten Directions Grand Meeting was.
"What are you looking at?" Elder Mei raised his chin, and the book on Luo Jinxiao's desk flew into the air. She tried to catch it several times but failed, and finally it fell into Elder Mei's hands.
"The White Brocade Immortal Scroll. Are they all superior techniques?" Elder Mei was surprised, and then sneered, "Just you, Luo Jinxiao, you are the one with the worst talent in the entire Wuhui Sect. Why don't you work hard on weekdays and just daydream like this?"
There was another burst of low laughter from all around. Luo Jinxiao rolled his eyes in his heart, took the book thrown back by Elder Mei, and sat down awkwardly.
"As I just said, the Ten Directions Festival is the grandest day in the entire world of immortal cultivation. All sects, big and small, will gather in one place to show off their abilities. To put it bluntly, it is to judge the pros and cons in the world and bring honor to their respective sects. However, not everyone can go to this festival, as there are many masters. Several elders have discussed it before, and you can send a few people to join in the fun." Elder Mei turned his gaze away from Luo Jinxiao and continued.
Yan Ying suddenly said, "Master, if there is a competition, can we participate?"
"You can't just participate in the competition if you want to. You have to be a predestined person to participate."
Luo Jinxiao hid his head under the table and whispered to Lu Fanzhi, "They definitely won't ask me to go, and I definitely don't want to go to this grand gathering. I have important things to do."
"What are you busy with?" Lu Fanzhi also put her head into the table, her eyes shining, "But I really want to go. It's boring to stay in Wuhui Sect all day. It's not as interesting as going out to practice. Besides, all the sects have to participate. It would be even better if there are some handsome brothers and sisters. I can treat it as a feast for the eyes."
"Handsome senior brothers and sisters?" Luo Jinxiao put down the book in his hand and nodded, "That's not bad."
"Right, and this event will be held at Mount Xumi Villa. Mount Xumi Villa is in the east and is said to be very close to the Exiled Sea. I have never been to such a far place." Lu Fanzhi became more and more excited as he spoke, and his voice gradually became louder.
Before Luo Jinxiao had time to cover her mouth, she heard a gust of wind coming from above her head. Luo Jinxiao subconsciously dodged backwards, and the book in Elder Mei's hand hit Lu Fanzhi's face with a bang, hitting her right between her eyebrows.
She immediately covered her forehead and cried out in pain.
"Luo Jinxiao, Lu Fanzhi, the two of you, get out of here!" Elder Mei shouted angrily.
So Luo Jinxiao had no choice but to stand at the door with Lu Fanzhi, listening to Elder Mei's chattering for an hour under the scorching sun of midsummer. Only then did they feel relieved and left here, supporting each other.
"Old witch." Lu Fanzhi touched her sunburned face and cursed viciously.
"Sure enough, villains only act arrogantly behind people's backs." A provocative voice sounded, Luo Jinxiao turned around, and it was indeed Yan Ying.
"You are the villain, your whole family are villains!" Lu Fanzhi cursed and rolled up his sleeves and walked forward, but was stopped by Luo Jinxiao.
"Okay, don't bother with her." Luo Jinxiao didn't want to cause trouble, so she patted Lu Fanzhi's shoulder and pulled her back, but was stopped by Yan Ying again.
"Don't look at me like that. I don't want to waste time with you. Elder Mei asked me to inform you that you also have to go to the Ten Directions Gathering." Yan Ying said with her arms folded.
Lu Fanzhi was delighted when she heard this, and said with a happy expression: "Really? Why?"
"How would I know? Anyway, we are the only new disciples. The others will stay in Wuhui Sect." Yanying still crossed her arms and paused before continuing, "Hey, your idiot sister, are you going?"
"How should I know?" Luo Jinxiao spread his hands.
After hearing this, Yan Ying looked a little lonely, but it was soon replaced by her usual arrogance. She swung her black hair, which was tied up high, behind her like a long whip and walked away with big strides.
"Why is she so proud?" Lu Fanzhi stuck out her tongue at Yanying's back.
Luo Jinxiao was not very interested in this so-called Ten Directions Grand Gathering, because it seemed that it would not greatly improve her cultivation. However, she was not opposed to it, but she didn't know whether the female devil would go.
If they were competing on behalf of their sect, they would probably send out the strongest people besides the elders.
That female devil will definitely go there too, Luo Jinxiao thought.
Facts proved that what she thought was right. On the day of departure, she got up early again and left the yard at dawn. Before leaving, she was stopped by Elder Liu and chopped half of the yard's firewood for him.
It was too late now. Luo Jinxiao could only fly through the air with his sword while wiping the sweat off his face with his sleeves. He muttered to himself that he was originally a clean and tidy cultivator, but after living here for so many days, he had developed all the skills to make a living, and was proficient in everything from chopping wood to building walls and cooking.
As she was complaining in her heart, she saw the towering white jade gate. She jumped down from mid-air and landed right in the crowd, scaring someone next to her.
"You're finally here. I thought you were going to run away and not go." Lu Fanzhi touched her chest, still in shock. She pulled Luo Jinxiao to look at him again, a puzzled look on her face.
"We'll be gone for many days this time, don't you forget to bring anything?" Lu Fanzhi asked.
"How is that possible?" Luo Jinxiao smiled and winked at her, then patted the purse on his waist. The things given by the female devil were very useful. This small purse seemed to have infinite space, and there was still room even after putting all the things in it.
When she was showing off her purse, she felt someone staring at her, so she looked up and saw Qu Weiyin. Their eyes met suddenly. Luo Jinxiao smiled even more brightly, while Qu Weiyin looked calm.
Qu Weiyin's eyes stayed on the purse in her palm for a moment, and then left.
"Now that everyone is here, I will emphasize the rules. Since Mount Xumi Villa is long and the road is dangerous, we will go in groups to ensure safety." Chang Siyu shouted again.
No one present had any objection, and several high-level disciples were divided into a group. They flew away on their swords while chatting and laughing. In the end, only Luo Jinxiao and a few others were left there.
"Don't worry, you new disciples will still be taken care of by me and Uncle Qu." Chang Siyu was very happy, mostly because of Qu Weiyin. However, Qu Weiyin didn't even look at him, but just nodded lightly.
"Senior Brother Si Yu, I want to go with you too." Luo Ning was supposed to follow a few high-level disciples, but now she has slipped back from somewhere.
"A tail-chaser." Yan Ying whispered in a low voice, but her pronunciation was very clear. Luo Ning turned back angrily after hearing this, staring with round eyes and said, "I followed my sister, not you!"
"Enough." Qu Weiyin frowned and said. As soon as her voice came out, no one dared to speak again and the surroundings suddenly became very quiet.
"Your cultivation is low. If anyone feels tired on the road, just tell us. We will stop to rest." After Qu Weiyin finished speaking, he took the lead and flew away on a sword. The others looked at each other and followed behind dejectedly.
Luo Jinxiao followed behind Qu Weiyin, and his eyes involuntarily fell on Qu Weiyin. Her waist was already slender, and now wrapped with a silk ribbon, it seemed even more slender, like a willow in the wind, so beautiful.
Above their heads was a white sea of clouds, with several people flying in it on their swords. Looking at them, Luo Jinxiao always felt that Qu Weiyin should be a fairy in the wind, whose back alone was so beautiful that it was beyond description.
Luo Jinxiao was stunned as she watched and forgot to control the sword under her feet. Qu Weiyin happened to slow down and she was startled. Unfortunately, because the speed was too fast, by the time she reacted, Qu Weiyin's red lips were already within reach.
Luo Jinxiao suddenly felt a shock in her heart. She took a breath and quickly dodged so as not to bump into Qu Weiyin.
But she didn't stand firmly and fell backwards with her arms and legs bared. Fortunately, a hand grabbed her belt around the waist and pulled her back to her original position.
Breaking out in a cold sweat, she saw clearly that the person who was pulling her was Qu Weiyin.
"Junior, Junior Uncle." Luo Jinxiao stuttered, his face slightly red.
Qu Weiyin looked at her and shook her head: "The wind is so weak today, you can't control the sword well. What if we encounter bad weather in the future?"
Luo Jinxiao had a hard time saying it out loud. If he said that he almost bumped into her because he was so stunned by her, it would be too...
In the end, she had no choice but to nod obediently and let her talent take the blame for her multitasking.
"Forget it, come with me and don't fly the sword anymore." Qu Weiyin frowned and said impatiently.
"Uncle Junior Master, can I..."
Luo Jinxiao was halfway through his words when Qu Weiyin interrupted him coldly: "Stop talking nonsense. If you fall, no one will save you."
Luo Jinxiao had no choice but to do so and didn't want to refuse her, so he put away his sword and stood obediently behind Qu Weiyin.
She was still a little nervous. The woman's waist and slender white neck were right in front of her, like the finest mutton-fat jade, making her want to touch it. The wind blew Qu Weiyin's long hair, and occasionally a few strands of hair fell on Luo Jinxiao's face, making her feel numb and itchy.
With a fragrance that is unique to Qu Weiyin.
The author has something to say: The answer will be revealed later. Ah, I am dying of laughter at your comments, haha~
