Chapter 369 No matter what!
Jiang Liqian returned to her own courtyard, closed the gate, and activated the formation outside the courtyard. No one outside could enter without her permission.
She didn't know whether Cui Rou had left or not, and she didn't care.
The next morning, she went to the square with her fellow disciples. This time, the sect would announce those who were qualified to go to the Mountain and Sea Secret Scroll.
First up are the top three Yuanying realm masters in the sect's competition, who are also the top three in this competition. They are Jiang Junze, the disciple of the great elder, Fu Wennian, the second disciple of Zhenfeng, and Xinlan, the inner sect disciple of Feixiafeng.
Then came the Golden Core Realm, where Le Feng personally taught his eldest disciple Xin Sui, Zhen Feng personally taught his sixth disciple Xu Youan, and Zhen Feng personally taught his fifth disciple Jiang Liqian.
Next is the Foundation Establishment Stage, where Jianfeng personally teaches his second disciple Xuan Ling, his third disciple Jiang Huaizhou, and his inner disciple Chen Huasheng.
The last one is the Qi Refining Realm, which includes Zhong Nanchu, the disciple of Miscellaneous Service Peak, Meng Jiuan, the sixth disciple of Taotie Peak, and Gu Anan, the third disciple of Weapon Peak.
Originally, the list of names entering the Secret Scroll of Mountains and Seas ended here, but this time was different from the past. The Sect Master personally gave the order and specially gave two places. One was Shen Qingqing, an inner sect disciple of Jianfeng, and the other was Song Nian'er, a ghost cultivator who had never left Zhuanling Peak.
There are fifteen people in total.
Because it was the leader's order, no one dared to object. In addition, Shen Qingqing performed well in the competition, and it was the first time for a ghost cultivator to enter the Secret Scroll of Mountains and Seas. Few people were dissatisfied.
After listening to the third elder read out the list of people entering the Secret Scroll of Mountains and Seas, the first person to be confused was Shen Qingqing herself.
These days she has been racking her brains to think of how to get the qualification to enter the Secret Scroll of Mountains and Seas.
She had used up all her points in the competition with Jiang Liqian to save her life. She had no way of trading with the system to gain access to the Mountain and Sea Secret Scroll. She needed to earn more points as soon as possible. Furthermore, her bones had been broken by Jiang Liqian, and she had been recuperating at Danfeng for the past few days. The pain from the bone setting made her wish she was dead.
Now that she had finally recovered 80% and heard such good news, she couldn't help but feel suspicious. Under the persuasion of the system, she mustered up the courage to go and pay a visit to Master Qingzhi.
But Master Qingzhi did not meet her. Instead, he sent a errand disciple out and said to her, "Jianfeng has never been absent from the personal teaching of the Mountain and Sea Secret Scroll."
What does it mean?
Shen Qingqing didn't quite understand.
Could it be that Master Qingzhi intends to accept her as his personal disciple?
Is there such a good thing that falls from the sky?
[After analysis by this system, it seems that the host performed exceptionally well in the sect's competition, which led to the Qingzhi Sect Master's intention to accept the host as his personal disciple.]
The system says so.
Shen Qingqing thought about it and it made sense. She was the heroine of this book. Even if the supporting female character Jiang Liqian persecuted her, her brilliance could not be concealed.
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the qualification to enter the Mountain and Sea Secret Scroll. The points value has increased by 10,000, and the host's total points value is 10,000. Please keep up the good work.]
[Trigger mission: Obtain the Mountain and Sea Secret Scroll, Nine Sacred Stones, and a reward of 10,000 points.]
Nine Sacred Stones? What the hell is that?
The system retrieved the virtual image and presented it in front of her.
Shen Qingqing wrote it down.
She is the heroine, and the Nine Sacred Stones are definitely in her pocket.
Shui Lian'er was particularly critical of these two special quotas. It wasn't that she questioned the Sect Leader's decision, but rather that she felt that for a ghost cultivator who didn't even know how to survive independently in the sun for long, entering the Mountain and Sea Secret Scroll would be tantamount to committing suicide a second time. As for Shen Qingqing, she simply didn't like her, a dislike she couldn't quite articulate. Every time the two of them stumbled into close proximity, she felt an indescribable discomfort.
Compared to Shen Qingqing's inexplicable spot, she felt it would be better to give it to Ye Anan. At least in her opinion, if Jiang Liqian was not too strong and eliminated Ye Anan in advance, Ye Anan would definitely be able to defeat Shen Qingqing.
"The master must have his reasons for making this decision, so don't be angry." Qin Beiyao couldn't bear to see her angry look, so he stuffed a piece of spiritual fruit into her mouth.
Shui Lian'er chewed and chewed, and her complexion really looked better. She soon put the matter behind her and instead gossiped with Jiang Liqian and the others: "Hey, do you think what happened to Cao Xian after he was defeated by our Liqian?"
Jiang Liqian and Qin Beiyao remained silent. Instead, Xu Youan was the first to ask, "What happened to him?"
He paused, and in order to prevent his senior sister from seeing that he was eager to see someone laugh at him for being disrespectful to her, he deliberately lowered his voice and slowed down his tone, adding casually, "It's just a loss in a competition, it shouldn't be a disastrous outcome, right?"
Shui Lian'er blinked and shook her head, "Not that it was that tragic. I just heard from the senior sister who was on night patrol that as soon as he returned to the outer sect, his father whipped him several times using family rules. He also said that the family sent him the spirit wolf just to defeat Li Qian, but it turned out to be a joke. He wasted his family's resources. The senior sister said that Elder Cao was so angry that he almost kicked him out of the sect.
"Tsk tsk, Elder Cao seems so righteous and serious, but he's a little too strict with his own son, isn't he? He's been causing trouble for Li Qian time and time again, even trying to take advantage of her and force her to be his Taoist partner. This punishment is a vent for his anger."
Jiang Li smiled and rubbed her hands. "I don't care about anything else. Anyway, if he dares to appear within ten meters of me again, I will beat him so hard that he will go back to his father and cry."
Shui Lian'er's eyes lit up immediately, and she clapped her hands in praise: "That's great! He's willing to accept the loss. If he cheats, we'll beat him up! We're not bullying him. He was the one who wanted to make this bet."
"That's right!"
She shouldn't be like before, overthinking everything, worrying about this and that, which only made the other person rampant! From now on, she will do things according to her own wishes and not worry about anything else!
The Secret Scroll of Mountains and Seas is the secret realm of the Tiangan Sect. Its entrance is a seemingly ordinary landscape painting. After the third elder opened the Secret Scroll of Mountains and Seas with the help of the Sect Master's Seal, he did not let the disciples in immediately. Instead, he informed them of the dangers inside and pointed them out.
"Anyone who enters the secret realm will follow their heart's chance, and life and death are determined by fate. The sect will not be responsible for your lives. Three days later, the Mountain and Sea Secret Scroll will be closed, and you will be automatically teleported out. However, if you die before then, the secret scroll will be buried forever.
"Now, those who are willing to enter the Secret Scroll of Mountains and Seas to fight for destiny and seize opportunities may enter. However, if you think carefully and feel that your current cultivation level is not enough to break through the Secret Scroll, there is no need to feel ashamed. The sect can provide you with the key to the library, so you can go inside to find a different opportunity."
After the Third Elder finished speaking, he waved his long sleeves, and rows of ink characters slowly emerged on the unfolded Secret Scroll of Mountains and Seas, as if floating on the water, with even mottled light and shadows in the water.
