Chapter 139 Ordinary
Zhu Wuyao stood on the deck of the cloud boat, looking south.
That place is where the Southern Li Giant Gate Sect is located.
After joining the Star-Picking Tower and becoming its leader, one's existence will inevitably attract the attention of the Giant Sword Sect, and they will surely take action.
It's a pity that the true Cold Transformation couldn't be revealed in the arena—
To avoid killing someone afterward, since the swordsmanship would be recognized.
Moreover, before that, it is necessary to determine who saved the person and who committed the act.
Zhu Wuyao's gaze toward the Juque Sect was filled with murderous intent; she was well aware that there were some Golden Core and Nascent Soul stage cultivators among them.
But we'll kill as many as we can.
She came to the Immortal Cultivation Conference to be like Jingwei filling the sea and Yu Gong moving mountains. As long as she perseveres, even if she can only kill one person every ten years, she will eventually be able to achieve her goals.
His heart was churning with emotions when Elder Chi's shout brought him back to his senses—
"Zhu Wuyao, hurry, strike with your sword!"
what?
Zhu Wuyao was somewhat bewildered. Who should he cut?
"It's that fallen leaf, hurry, hurry, hurry!"
She looked up and saw the ethereal spirit boat, accompanied by melodious flute and zither music.
This... Everyone else came to participate in the Immortal Cultivation Conference, and your Taibai Sect actually secretly subscribed to VIP memberships?!
Why does this even have entrance effects?
Zhu Wuyao immediately understood Elder Chi's meaning. She glanced at the Juque Sect, drew her sword, and unleashed a powerful slash forward.
As the sword flashed, countless withered yellow leaves surged forth, while a few drifted away and vanished with the wind.
Most of them swept towards the direction of the Juque Sect, following the direction of the strike.
This autumnal feeling stretches across the north and south.
"Alas, the strike missed!" Elder Chi sighed in regret.
Shi Tao, standing next to him, became even more convinced that Zhu Wuyao was going to miss his target.
How could the direction be wrong?
It seems that in the Star-Picking Tower, the sword was only slightly off-target; she was already making great efforts to reduce the error.
Thinking this, Shi Tao felt even more depressed.
At the time, he thought Zhu Wuyao was holding back, but his composure wavered on stage, and he lost too quickly.
Although I later saw Zhu Wuyao's true strength and stopped having illusions, I still felt that if I could do it again, I could perform even better.
Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.
Wu Wei of the Juque Sect frowned, snorted, and his powerful spiritual energy instantly met the incoming sword energy.
Countless withered leaves instantly vanished into specks of light.
He was about to ask a question when Wu Guihong stopped him, saying:
“Master, this person probably didn’t do it on purpose. It seems that Zhaixing Tower wanted to compete with Taibai Sect for the limelight, but ended up cutting in the wrong direction.”
Wu Guihong knew this claim was unreliable, so he immediately produced a list that detailed the disciples sent by each sect and their individual characteristics.
Turning to the page about the Star-Picking Tower, I respectfully handed it to my master and said:
"You see, this person should be Zhu Wuyao. If the Zhaixing Tower and the Taibai Sect have a conflict, it will be a good thing for us."
Wu Wei took the order, and the first line was "Zhu Wuyao".
"Wishing you, Wuyao, complete the Great Perfection of Qi Refining."
"With mixed spiritual roots of the five elements, and having entered the sect for less than a year, he has extremely good luck and his cultivation has improved very quickly."
"He is quite arrogant and likes to look down on people. He has a good relationship with Shen Anzhi of Zhaixing Tower. He must have gotten into Zhaixing Tower through connections."
"He indulges in pleasure, lacks ambition, and frequently takes leave to go to Beixuan City for fun."
"Clad in black with a broadsword, the sword has no edge and extremely poor accuracy. It has never hit anyone, but it excels at breaking formations, breaking boundaries, and dismantling protective shields. Apart from releasing a chilling aura, it is otherwise unremarkable."
"Supplement: In the latest decisive battle, he defeated Xiao Qingyu and was promoted from Mule Slayer to Sword Partiality. Because he was accompanied by falling leaves when he drew his sword, he was also known as Falling Leaves Inviting Autumn."
Wu Wei handed the form back, no longer bothering with the junior whose aim was so poor.
Although the moles planted cannot be discovered, they cannot be moved too much, nor can they be investigated personally; they can only gather information.
However, the Star-Picking Tower is good at these superficial tricks.
This person, at first glance, seems to fit perfectly with the Star-Picking Tower; he has no real ability, just good luck.
The way they choose their disciples is truly consistent with the style of Zhaixinglou.
That's all there is to it; the others are hardly a threat.
Zhu Wuyao, who was standing on the deck, and Elder Chi, who was ready to respond to questions at any time, were quite puzzled to see that the Juque Sect had no reaction.
"That shouldn't be the case. When did the Juque Sect become so magnanimous?"
Zhu Wuyao was also puzzled.
Her sword strike was designed to incite resentment, so that when the time came, a steady stream of Juque Sect disciples would come to challenge her in the arena.
This would make it easier for her to cast a divination for each person.
In this situation, does the Juque Sect really take itself seriously?
In any case, Elder Chi finally felt relieved after adding a special effect to his sect's Cloud-Breaking Boat.
After disembarking from the spirit boat, he led his disciples forward to greet the Taibai Sect.
Zhu Wuyao watched for a while and realized that the two sects actually had a good relationship.
That's true. After Qingyun Sect was tricked last time, it dragged Zhaixing Tower and Taibai Sect down with it.
The two sects were ranked last and second to last respectively, which was a testament to their friendship forged through shared hardships.
Elder Chi and Elder Qi Jun of the Taibai Sect walked together toward the main seat, where two people were already seated. The four major sects were the hosts of this Immortal Cultivation Conference.
Elder Zuo Rao of the Treasure Pavilion, along with Zhu Wuyao and others, sat in the seats to the north.
Apart from the front row seats, all the other sects and families behind him had arrived, including the Xiaotian Sect whom they had encountered on the way.
Upon seeing this group of people, Zhu Wuyao frowned.
Why are the clothes worn by the Xiaotian Sect members so similar to those worn by the Zhaixinglou disciples?
Several disciples of the Xiaotian Sect were carrying jars, moving between various families and sects, seemingly sharing food.
Upon seeing Zhaixinglou arrive, the disciples of Xiaotian Sect immediately perked up. Some of them rushed forward, dumped the contents of their fruit platters onto the table, and replaced them with the food from their jars.
Zhu Wuyao was somewhat curious.
She watched as Xiaotianzong, with a smug look on his face, poured out a dish of...soaked dog food?!
"Fellow Daoists of Zhaixing Tower, this is a special spiritual food of our Xiaotian Sect called Paogao, which is extremely popular throughout the North."
Then, ignoring the expressions of the people in the Star-Picking Tower, he began to speak eloquently.
The traditional delicacies of Beixuan City are imitating Paogao (a type of steamed rice cake); how influential the Xiaotian Sect is on the Mosang Continent; how deep is the Xiaotian Sect's foundation with a 600 billion-year history; how difficult it is for various sects to obtain even a single sip of Paogao...
Zhu Wuyao glanced at Xiaotian Sect, then at Elder Zuo Rao who seemed to be dozing off, and finally, his gaze fell on Senior Sister Gu, who had a calm expression.
Gu Yiguan remained calm and even reached out to hold Song Kezi down.
While listening, he could even nod occasionally, clearly having anticipated the Xiaotian Sect's behavior.
After Xiaotian Sect finally finished speaking, Gu Yiguan said:
"Your crosstalk is pretty good, but you should feed it to the dogs."
