Luo Jinxiao took a breath of cold air and quickly closed her eyes, feeling the sudden tension in her heart.
The noise around them died down instantly, except for the two of them whose hearts were pounding, not sure if it was because of shock or because they were too close.
After a long time, so long that Luo Jinxiao's legs felt a little numb, Qu Weiyin finally took a step back. She looked at Luo Jinxiao with a confused look in her eyes.
"Master Junior, is it really impossible to measure? This has never happened before. I suspect she is a little weird, otherwise..."
"Foundation building, first stage." Qu Weiyin said lightly.
"What? But..." Chang Siyu wanted to say something but was interrupted by Qu Weiyin.
"You don't believe it?" Qu Weiyin said slowly, her phoenix eyes moved slightly and looked at Chang Siyu. Chang Siyu dared not say anything more and quickly lowered his head.
"If we put our foreheads together, the measurement will definitely be more accurate." Qu Weiyin said again. She turned her gaze back to Luo Jinxiao meaningfully, as if looking her up and down.
Luo Jinxiao was completely confused at this moment. Looking at the expression of the female devil, it seemed that she was also not clear.
Then why did she help her lie
"You continue, I'll watch." Qu Weiyin said to Chang Siyu, but without giving him any look, then turned around and strode onto the stage.
She stood high in the center, looking down upon everyone like a god.
Luo Jinxiao looked at it and sighed for no reason.
"You, you've passed the line, why don't you leave quickly?" Chang Siyu had a ferocious look on his face and pushed Luo Jinxiao roughly.
Luo Jinxiao staggered after being pushed by him and rolled her eyes. As people stood on the steps, the number of people waiting gradually increased. Some people failed to pass the trial and had to leave with regret.
The second test was quite simple for Luo Jinxiao. It was just to use a soul-condensing mirror to look at each person one by one to see their strength of will. Some of those who were not so determined fainted and cried on the spot, looking extremely ugly for a while.
Luo Jinxiao saw the girl who was looking for trouble just now. She was indeed quite strong. Although she looked very painful facing the Soul Condensing Mirror, at least she did not make any big movements, so she passed it.
"Hey, what kind of magic weapon is this? Why are they in such a mess?" Someone pushed Luo Jinxiao's shoulder from behind and asked in a low voice.
Luo Jinxiao looked back and saw that the person asking the question was also a girl, who looked a little older than her. She was wearing a bright yellow dress with pearl water patterns and a string of agate arms on her hands, which jingled non-stop when she moved.
"The Soul-Condensing Mirror. Anyone illuminated by it can see the most horrifying scene in their life." Luo Jinxiao had nothing to do, so he answered casually.
"Oh, what should I do!" The girl got nervous and suddenly clenched Luo Jinxiao's hand. Luo Jinxiao was not used to being close to others, so he subconsciously pulled his hand away.
"You've probably seen those terrifying scenes before. Try to recall them and be on guard." Luo Jinxiao took a step back calmly and distanced himself from her.
"It was very scary when my father taught me a lesson. And the bug I saw yesterday was also very scary." The girl bit her lip and said with a sad face.
After hearing what she feared, Luo Jinxiao didn't know what to say for a moment. Finally, he shook his head and thought, it seems that she is a child who was spoiled by her family.
A little envious.
Soon it was her turn. Luo Jinxiao closed her eyes slightly, but her hands were secretly clenched.
It is simple, but it does not mean that she is not afraid. What is replayed in the mirror is the fear she faced when she was a child. She is afraid every time, but the strict training of the Luo family makes her not afraid.
She had experienced this Soul-Condensing Mirror many times when she was young.
"Passed." The disciple holding the mirror said loudly, and then walked to the next person.
In the distance, the wind was blowing. Qu Weiyin stood motionless, but her eyes were always on the figure below the stage. The girl's figure was taller than the people around her, with her black hair standing up high, clean, and silent.
"Luo Jinxiao." She frowned and muttered silently.
Her talent was much stronger and more mysterious than she had imagined, but such a person was regarded as a waste by the world and was strangled in the cradle by her in her previous life.
When they first met, the girl was just like those who hated her, panicked, frightened, hostile, and indistinguishable from ordinary people.
But now it seems that these are just appearances.
She actually felt a little curious about her.
"My name is Lu Fanzhi. Who are you? You're so amazing. You didn't even show any emotion just now!" The girl just now squeezed in from somewhere and naturally hugged Luo Jinxiao's arm.
Luo Jinxiao smiled and pulled his arm out naturally.
"Luo Jinxiao." She replied.
"Luo Jinxiao, what a nice name. You are from the Luo family..." Lu Fanzhi fell silent and coughed awkwardly.
"Yes." Luo Jinxiao smiled, but she didn't care at all.
Lu Fanzhi rubbed his head, then suddenly put his arm around Luo Jinxiao's shoulders and said proudly, "My mother always said that meeting is destiny, and now you and I are also destined to be together."
"I heard that the third test is to become a disciple. If you are not destined to be one, or if no one is willing to accept you, you will not be able to enter Wuhui Sect." She gradually lowered her voice mysteriously, "My dream is to become her disciple."
Luo Jinxiao followed her gaze and raised his head, finally stopping at the woman in red in the distance.
“Qu Weiyin is the person with the highest cultivation level in Wuhui Sect besides several elders. It is said that he has reached the first stage of Spiritualization and has the artifact Cangyue Xingchen Sword in his hand. His strength should not be underestimated.
Lu Fanzhi had a hopeful look on her face, but it turned into disappointment in an instant: "However, she has never accepted any apprentices so far, and I believe this time will be no exception."
It turns out that the female devil has already reached the level of a god. No wonder she is so powerful after becoming a devil that no one can stop her. Luo Jinxiao looked at Qu Weiyin from afar and thought to himself.
And judging from Lu Fanzhi's reaction, she should have no idea about what was going on between them. She didn't know who blocked the news, maybe Qu Chengzhou or maybe Qu Weiyin, so the fact that they almost got married was not spread.
This is a good thing for her. It would be even better if Qu Weiyin also forgot about it.
As he was thinking about it, he suddenly met Qu Weiyin's gaze. Luo Jinxiao's heart skipped a beat and he quickly looked away.
"Here I come, here I come." Lu Fanzhi grabbed Luo Jinxiao's shoulders in surprise and pushed her into the crowd. Luo Jinxiao had no choice but to follow her.
I saw that the second trial had ended and almost half of the people were gone. The remaining disciples stood in a row on the stone steps, each holding a milky white jade pendant in his hand.
The jade pendant is emitting a faint light, making it look even warmer and more precious.
The spiritual jade is used for apprenticeship. Everyone who is qualified to accept a disciple must leave a mark on it. The disciple only needs to pour spiritual power into it. If there is a destiny, they can become master and disciple.
Everyone has begun to release spiritual power. For a moment, the originally milky white jade pendant suddenly changed its appearance, becoming colorful and dazzling.
Luo Jinxiao was still a little nervous. After all, becoming a disciple cannot be taken lightly. If one gets a bad master, the effect of his training will be greatly reduced.
She took her spiritual jade and prayed softly before pouring her spiritual power into it. The spiritual jade gradually changed color and was shrouded in a faint golden light.
Luo Jinxiao’s eyes suddenly widened. No way! How could she be so unlucky!
Her movements also attracted everyone's attention. Someone nearby said, "Golden color, isn't that Junior Master Qu?"
"But she has never accepted any disciples, and no one has ever been predestined to be with her. Who is this person?"
"Who is he? Can't you see that he's a waste of the Luo family?" The voice was very sharp. Luo Jinxiao knew who said it without even looking up. However, she was now immersed in the shock of being involved with the female devil again, so she didn't bother to pay attention.
She almost began to doubt whether there were really two people in this world who were destined to be incompatible with each other.
"Qu, Junior-Master Qu." The disciples beside her suddenly bent down. Luo Jinxiao raised her eyes and saw that Qu Weiyin had appeared in front of her at some point, looking at the jade pendant in her hand, as if thinking about something.
"Master Qu, she..." The sharp-tongued girl was about to say something when she was interrupted by a look from Qu Weiyin and forced herself to swallow the rest of the words.
"Who are you?" Qu Weiyin frowned.
"Yan, Yan Ying." The girl couldn't help but take a step back when she was looked at by her, and her voice became much softer.
"As the name suggests, he is noisy." Qu Weiyin said.
The girl's face suddenly turned red, she felt embarrassed and angry. She wanted to refute something but didn't dare to speak. Seeing her frustrated look made Luo Jinxiao feel a little happier.
Qu Weiyin ignored her and looked Luo Jinxiao up and down without saying a word.
"Master Qu, do you want to accept her as your disciple?" Chang Siyu hurriedly moved to Qu Weiyin's side and asked cautiously.
"My immortal veins are unstable, my spiritual power is weak, and I have no talent. Even if Wuhui Sect is willing to accept such a person, I would not want to." Qu Weiyin spoke, her expression unchanged, but her words were full of sarcasm and contempt.
Even someone like Luo Jinxiao, who was always calm and composed, couldn't help but frown and clench his fists.
"Only the strong can survive here. I will sing and not accept the trash."
As Qu Weiyin spoke, she suddenly reached out and took the spiritual jade from Luo Jinxiao's hand, and gently squeezed it between her white fingers. The spiritual jade was immediately crushed into powder and flew away with the wind.
A surge of anger suddenly surged in Luo Jinxiao's heart.
Lingyu has always been extremely important to immortal cultivators. When they become disciples, the Lingyu becomes a contract between them and the immortal sect, which will not change regardless of life or death. Immortal cultivators must protect it well.
Therefore, crushing the spiritual jade of those who practice Taoism is like crushing their spine, which is a great insult.
The powder blinded Luo Jinxiao, but she refused to rub it. She just stared at Qu Weiyin with red eyes. She seldom hated someone so much. Even if it was her who killed her by chance, she never blamed her.
But it was different now. She was being blatantly insulted in public, and she still had some pride in her, so she would never swallow it in silence.
The people watching the excitement were stunned. There was complete silence for a moment and no one dared to say anything.
Luo Jinxiao gritted his teeth and suddenly raised his hand. Qu Weiyin's eyes moved slightly. She was caught off guard. The spiritual jade hanging around her waist suddenly shattered like Luo Jinxiao's. The difference was that it did not turn into powder, but split into two halves.
Everyone gasped nervously when they saw this. Junior-Master Qu had a notoriously bad temper in recent years. How could this Luo be so bold as to crush Junior-Master Qu's jade with his own hands
At this time, Luo Jinxiao calmed down and suddenly realized that she was not facing someone else, but the Demon Lord who had killed countless people in her previous life. She couldn't help herself and was really risking her life.
Qu Weiyin looked at the spiritual jade that fell on the ground and raised her head slightly. Luo Jinxiao looked at her. Suddenly, she felt as if a thousand-pound weight was pressing on her back and her knees trembled.
Under the pressure from Qu Weiyin, Luo Jinxiao suddenly felt dizzy and could only hold on by relying on his willpower.
She was unwilling to give in, so she gritted her teeth and remained silent.
However, the pressure suddenly disappeared. She raised her head and found that Qu Weiyin was only two inches away from her. He was holding her collar with one hand. The two of them were extremely close.
Qu Weiyin's eyebrows and eyes looked more delicate and colder upon closer inspection. The faint fragrance of flowers made her feel a little dizzy.
Qu Weiyin opened her mouth but said nothing. She suddenly flicked her right fingers lightly into the air, then let go and turned to leave. Everyone hurriedly made way for her.
Luo Jinxiao then began to breathe heavily. She stared at Qu Weiyin's back. She was wearing a red dress and was alone, which made her look a little desolate.
When she came to her senses, she found that a piece of spiritual jade had appeared in her hand without her noticing. It was emitting a grass-green light and had a few small words engraved on it in small seal script: Mr. Liuzhi.
"Mr. Liuzhi is the name of an elder who has not come out for a long time. This is the title left by Junior Master Qu. She wants you to worship Mr. Liuzhi as your master!" Lu Fanzhi appeared out of nowhere, grabbed Luo Jinxiao's arm, and was quite excited.
"Mr. Liuzhi?" Luo Jinxiao was stunned. She looked at the jade pendant in her hand and her heart was suddenly in turmoil.
