Now, he had no choice but to be honest with himself.
Dong, dong, dong!
Just like the entrance to the mortal world, when he turned around, his eyes were filled with confusion.
Wai Yunuo also noticed that something was not right. With a pout of her mouth, she quickly returned to her normal appearance.
"It's good that you're fine. Hurry back to cook!"
Patting Yang Xuan on the shoulder, Wai Yunuo shakily left with her hands behind her back.
He was as carefree and uninhibited as ever.
Yang Xuan looked at her back in silence. He opened his mouth and shook his head to drive away the complicated feelings in his heart.
"I was thinking too much."
When the two of them returned to Dao Sect's territory, Wai Yunuo acted as if nothing had happened.
Yang Xuan saw that she was already in such a state, so he naturally didn't say anything more.
There was only one question in Yang Xuan's mind, which was what Wai Yunuo had experienced in the past few years. Although she looked cheerful on the surface, Yang Xuan felt her soul-like pain at that moment.
Forget it, it's only been a year anyway, so it's best not to get too involved.
Thinking about this, Yang Xuan calmed down.
The next day, the results were out.
Xie Mingcheng naturally became the number one new disciple and Guan Ziyao also successfully entered into the top 20. For those who were still at the 1st level of Refinement a month ago, this result was already unexpected.
Xie Mingcheng was currently a member of Stick Sect, and had to show off in front of Zimo.
The practice started again. Yang Xuan's goal was to compete in the final disciple competition next year, but he didn't care about anything else.
Right now, he was becoming more and more adept at cultivating array formations. Speaking of which, he had to thank the generations of secret manuals he had obtained in the ancient tomb for getting his hands on array formations so quickly.
There were many similarities between the cultivation techniques and the formation array. If it were any other new person, they wouldn't even be able to reach Yang Xuan's current level in a year.
Half a month later, Wai Yunuo went to the main assembly and came back with a lot of Medicine Pill for Yang Xuan. After putting them on the table, Wai Yunuo sat down.
"There's something I need to tell you."
Yang Xuan put down the atlas in his hand and looked at Wai Yunuo inquiringly.
"It's like this, your new disciples have come for a month. Now, all the new disciples will receive missions, and each faction will select a few outstanding new disciples to complete …"
As Wai Yunuo spoke up to here, she helplessly spread her hands, "You are the only new disciple in our Dao Sect, and you did well in the last stage, so you have to go … …"
Yang Xuan was already prepared for this. Now that she mentioned it, he wasn't surprised at all.
"What mission?"
"The elder didn't say anything. You can ask him yourself tomorrow."
As she spoke, Wai Yunuo took out a beautiful jade token from her sleeve. There was a phoenix soaring in the sky with its wings spread wide open.
The next day, Yang Xuan took his salute and went to the Xuanyuan Sect s Defensive Hall, a place specially used to take over sect missions.
In addition to the characters that were assigned by the sect, he could also take the initiative to come here and accept missions, and the rewards would be Spirit Stone and other kinds of Medicine Pill.
Different levels correspond to different rewards.
Yang Xuan walked into the Hall of Defense and found a few familiar figures: Zhao Wudao, Guan Ziyao, and Xie Mingcheng!
Every branch sect would need to send out a person, and the one leading the group this time was actually the Chief of the Literary Sect, Yan Churou.
Seeing Yang Xuan walk in, Yan Churou pointed to a seat and told him to sit down first.
Yan Churou continued, "This time, my mission is to go to the border of the sect and capture the thief Taoist …"
After Yan Churou's explanation, Yang Xuan and the rest knew that this time, the sect was going to reward them with two thousand Spirit Stone and a few Qi Refining Pills.
Yang Xuan was indifferent about Spirit Stone. Before he came, he had brought more than half of the ancient tomb's Spirit Stone into his storage ring. These two thousand Spirit Stone were indeed not worth mentioning.
"Even though he is only at the 9th level of Refinement Qi, he is cunning and extremely good at hiding and escaping. Even if a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator were to go, he might not be able to catch him."
"The four of you are all first-rate talents of the sub-schools, so you don't have to go all out. If the Thief Daoist used his killing technique, you can just run."
"I'll do my best to protect you guys, but if an accident occurs during an emergency where you don't listen to my orders, don't blame the sect for being merciless."
Yang Xuan and Zhao Wudao looked at each other before hurriedly moving away.
The two of them did not have much to worry about the situation of the Thief Daoist. Not to mention Yang Xuan, even Zhao Wudao, who was at the ninth level of Qi Refining, could not beat him.
"Alright, if you have any questions, just kick them out." Yan Churou's eyes swept across the four of them and said softly.
"No!" The four of them replied in unison.
The corners of Yan Churou's mouth curled up slightly. She was quite satisfied with their performance.
"Alright, let's go!"
Guan Ziyao raised his sword, while Xie Mingcheng carried a stick on his back. Zhao Wudao also took out a special iron fan. This was the weapon given to them by the sect.
On the other hand, Yang Xuan seemed to be alone with empty hands.
Seeing the three of them looking at him, Yang Xuan smiled mysteriously. What kind of weapon would he need to draw a formation?
The sect's protective magical formation opened, and Yang Xuan and a few people came down the mountain at the same time.
Halfway there, Yang Xuan turned his head slightly and looked in the direction of the protective magical formation. In a trance, he seemed to see a woman in a purple gown.
… ….
At night, the stars filled the sky.
The group arrived at a sect's territory.
This place was called Carefree Island. It was different from the other sects' places where the spiritual energy was abundant. The air here was turbid, and there was a foul stench that was difficult to disperse.
The water world around Carefree Island was also pitch black. Most of the people on this island had Qi deviation, or perhaps it could be said that they were the Qi Refiner s that had no hope of advancing.
On this island, there was no rule and no cure.
The strong became the kings, and the losers became the bandits. Strength was the most important aspect of survival, and many cultivators who had fallen into the demonic path loved to come here.
Yang Xuan and the others got off the ferry and silently walked on a path filled with weeds.
In the distance, he could vaguely see some dilapidated houses of varying heights.
The further they walked, the more obvious the stench became.
"According to the sect's intelligence network, the Thief Daoist is currently hiding in an inn here. Before we enter, we should first investigate so as not to alert the enemy."
"Sure, then let's split up?" Yang Xuan was the first to ask.
"What's your opinion?" Yan Churou didn't answer right away, but cast a glance at the other three.
"No problem." Zhao Wudao smiled confidently and flattered her, "Anyway, with Senior Sister here, this mission will definitely go smoothly."
"I don't have a problem with that either." Finally, he had the chance to act alone. In the last competition among the new disciples, he had regretfully taken the ninth place. This time, he must seize this opportunity to let himself have a good fight by himself!
Only Xie Mingcheng did not say anything.
