I Just Won’t Play by the Book

At noon, all the disciples climbed to the top of Qiyun Peak. For Jiang Beiran, who seldom participated in group activities, this mountain climbing was really tiring in a sense.

‘Sure enough, no matter which world you are in, staying alone is the most comfortable choice. ’

With a sigh in his heart, Jiang Beiran quietly returned to Lanxintang's queue.

Amid the reprimands of the hall masters, the disciples of the twenty-four halls lined up in front of the Guixin Hall, where the head of the past dynasties was enshrined.

"clang!"

As the bell in the hall rang, a middle-aged man in a dark gray draped cloud pattern brocade robe came out.

"Meet Lord Qin Xiang!"

All hall masters, guardians and disciples shouted in unison.

Nodding towards the crowd, Qin Yuan threw off his long sleeves and shouted at Guixin Hall, "Bye!"

After hearing this, all the hall masters and disciples knelt down and bowed three times towards Guixin Hall.

"Enter the palace!"

The ceremony was completed, and the disciples of the twenty-fourth hall walked into the Guixin Hall in an orderly manner.

As a landmark building of Guixin Sect, Guixin Hall is extremely luxurious, with a length of 56 meters, a width of 34 meters, a height of 26 meters, and a total area of ​​more than 2,000 square meters.

There are 16 bronze tripods of various kinds in the hall, surrounded by the golden lacquer throne of nine beasts, and there are four statues on both sides of the throne, namely, the fish, the white ze, the feathered crane and the water unicorn.

The lionfish symbolizes the stability of the sect, the white ze is auspicious, the crane represents the upward heart, and the water unicorn represents the inheritance.

There are also nine giant pillars carved with nine kinds of ancient aliens around the four statues, each of which is lifelike, making people feel awe.

Jiang Beiran has been in Guixin Sect for five years, and he has come to pay homage to Shizu once when he first entered the school. At that time, he was shocked by the luxurious atmosphere of this hall and was speechless.

Now that he has revisited his hometown, he can still feel the shock of the past.

When the disciples of the twenty-fourth hall lined up in front of the golden lacquer throne of the nine beasts, the incense master Qin Yuan shouted loudly, "Welcome the sect master!"

All hall masters and disciples immediately bowed their heads and shouted in unison, "Welcome to the sect master!"

When he raised his head again, a middle-aged man wearing a blue unicorn-colored ice brocade python robe descended from the sky and landed right in front of the golden lacquer throne of the Nine Beasts. It was the Sect Master of the Guixin Sect, Lu Yinlong.

"Meet the Sect Master!"

Everyone in the hall shouted in unison.

"Hahahaha, good! Today, the most outstanding disciples of my Guixin Sect have gathered here. I am very happy." After speaking, Lu Yinlong sat on the golden lacquer throne of the Nine Beasts.

Glancing at all the disciples, Lu Yinlong said happily.

"This time, I have an outstanding disciple from the Guixin Sect. He was only nineteen years old, and his cultivation base has reached the profound master level. It can be said that my Guixin Sect has been the number one disciple in the past 30 years!"

As soon as Lu Yinlong finished speaking, everyone's eyes turned towards Wu Qingce.

The last time Wu Qingce won the first place in the Jiangbei District Competition, his reputation had already spread within the sect, and now he has broken through the Xuanshi at the age of nineteen, which shocked many disciples who were still stuck on the 5th floor of the Xuanzhe. to the mouth.

"Wu Qingce, get out."

Hearing the suzerain suddenly calling his name, Wu Qingce immediately stepped out and shouted, "The disciple is here!"

"This trip to the Covering Moon Sect, I have appointed you as the head of all the disciples, and you will follow the order of Qinggang. During the outing, all the disciples will be under your jurisdiction."

"Disciple takes orders!"

Wu Qingce already knew that he wanted to be the captain, but now it was just a passing scene, so he was not too surprised or excited.

After Wu Qingce finished the ceremony, Qin Yuan came over with a purple-gold token.

"Take the order."

"Yes!" Wu Qingce respectfully stretched out his hands and took Qing Gang Ling over.

In the Guixin Sect, the iron seal is above the corolla, and above the corolla is Qinggang. It is the highest position among the disciples. Generally, it requires enough prestige and strong strength to be competent. Although Wu Qingce has a high talent, his current prestige and strength are both It's not top-notch, so it's just a temporary confession of fate this time.

But even if it is a temporary confession, it also represents the Sect Master's expectations for him.

When Wu Qingce took over the Qinggang Order, Jiang Beiran calmly scanned the expressions of the disciples with his mental power, and found that most of the female disciples had adoration on their faces, and a small number of male disciples admired and envied, but more ...still disobedient and jealous.

Although these expressions were only fleeting, Jiang Beiran still remembered the disciples who showed those expressions in his heart.

"salute!"

When Wu Qingce took the Qing Gang Ling and turned around to face the disciples, Qin Xiangzhu looked at the disciples and shouted.

"See you Qinggang!"

Seeing everyone saluting to him, Wu Qingce resisted the urge to turn his face away from his senior brother, and responded with anxiety: "Since taking over this position, Qing Ce will do everything in his power to protect all senior brothers and sisters during this trip! "

"What else?" Qin Yuan reminded with a smile.

Wu Qingce reacted instantly and vowed: "I will definitely live up to the Sect Master's expectations and win the leader in this Yingjie Youth Club!"

"Well said!" Lu Yinlong laughed twice, clapped his hands and stood up, "I hope that every disciple in the temple can remember your mission, this time we go, the birthday is the second, and we will win the championship in the competition. It's the main purpose, but we can't let the Moon Covering Sect look down on us, do you understand!"

"Disciple obeys!" All the disciples answered in unison.

"Very good! That's the momentum! Let's go!"

‘Alas, the sect master’s competitive spirit is still so strong. ’

Jiang Beiran always knew that Lu Yinlong didn't know why he was humble

Even if people shout slogans, they will say that friendship comes first and competition comes second.

But Lu Yinlong felt that it was too hypocritical. Since it is a competition, we must go all out. Friendship or something, it will not be too late to say when we win.

After exiting the Guixin Hall, the sect master and the guardians of the hall masters went down the mountain first, and the disciples finally had a chance to take a breath. After all, it was really a little depressing in the hall just now.

After relaxing for a while, all the disciples also began to walk down the mountain. Ye Xincai looked around, and soon found Jiang Beiran who was walking down the mountain. Just as she was about to follow, she suddenly felt a tremor all over her body, and goosebumps all over her body. up.

"Gudu..."

After swallowing, Ye Xincai trembled and looked in the direction, only to see Lin Yuyan staring at her with a terrifying expression, the smile on her face as if she was going to choose someone to devour.

Ye Xincai, who almost cried out, turned her head back quickly, and the big beads of sweat kept dripping down...

'Who is that! ? Lin... Senior Sister Lin? Impossible... Senior Sister Lin is usually very kind. I must have read it wrong... Yes, wrong. ’

Looking back again, Ye Xincai found that Lin Yuyan had been talking and laughing with several female disciples down the mountain, showing the same temperament as usual, a very gentle big sister.

"Junior Sister Ye?"

Just when Ye Xincai was thinking about whether what she saw just now was an illusion, a voice suddenly sounded beside her, and Ye Xincai, who was frightened, shouted and stepped back.

"Junior Sister Ye, what's wrong with you?" Senior Brother Lin asked nervously.

Ye Xincai, who had just come over, patted her chest, smiled again and replied, "It's okay, I saw a caterpillar just now...it scared me to death."

"Ah? There are bugs?" Senior Brother Lin hurriedly protected Ye Xincai: "It's okay, see me again to help you solve it."

"Thank you, Senior Brother Lin, fortunately you are here, otherwise Cai'er wouldn't know what to do."

"Hey, it's just a small matter, come on, I'll walk in front, just follow slowly."

"Okay~"

She followed Senior Brother Lin slowly down the mountain, but the extremely infiltrating scene just now kept reappearing in her mind.

'Illusions? It must be a hallucination...'
