She didn’t know whether it was on purpose on not, but her name was really the last one to be called?
When she walked up, none of the peak masters spoke.
Even if she passed the Nine Zigzag Mountain Array, she was still a three-spirit root owner.
The atmosphere was a bit awkward.
“No one wants me?” Ming Shu tilted her head and looked up at the platform. The smile on her face didn’t fade.
Everyone: “...” You still dare to say it aloud. You are amazing.
“Then...”
“Who says no one wants you, I do.”
A blue shadow appeared, followed by a soft and lazy voice. Everyone quieted down.
Yan Yin appeared to have not seen Jun Qing and didn’t pay his respects to him. He looked straight at Ming Shu. “The last apprentice of Lihun Peak, are you coming?”
Everyone’s eyes opened wide.
She could actually gain the approval of Lihun Peak’s master?
Ming Shu smiled. “No.”
A quick rejection.
Everyone: “...” WTH! Did she just reject him!
What is she trying to do?
Yan Yin was much calmer than the rest of the crowd. “Besides my Lihun Peak, who else wants you?”
Ming Shu gave an eye smile and said with a hint of arrogance, “Six out of the Seven Peaks have appeared. Why not gather all the Seven Peaks?
Yanyue Peak, Wuying Peak, Lihun Peak, Jinlan Peak, Xingxiang Peak, Chihuo Peak, Lihun Peak were all here.
The one that was left was...
Lingjian Peak.
The inner sect disciples felt that this person was more amazing than Yun Yao.
Lingjian Peak was also known as the Peak of Swords. The swords on Lingjian Peak had been there since the start of the Yin Sect and also had some swords that were created later. Basically, there were a lot of swords on Lingjian Peak.
However, Lingjian Peak had not had a peak master for almost a hundred years.
Since there was no peak master, there were also no disciples on the peak. No one could enter Lingjian Peak unless a new peak master appeared.
The swords in the Yin Sect now were all made elsewhere.
“Xuan Ji, do you know what you are saying?” The sect leader broke the silence. “There is no one in Lingjian Peak now.”
Ming Shu smiled. “The person who gets the Taiyan Sword will take over Lingjian.”
Her eyes turned. “Am I right?”
The sect leader frowned. “Yes, but the Taiyan Sword hasn’t recognized anyone for the past hundred years.
This was the reason why there was no peak master on Lingjian Peak.
Yan Yin had a bad feeling.
Ming Shu’s smile got deeper as she raised her hand into the air. A humming sound came from within Lingjian Peak.
The sound was clear and loud.
It rang through the sky.
Other people might not know this sound, but Jun Qing and the sect leader, as well as the people close to them, knew that this was the sound of the Taiyan Sword.
Ming Shu raised her hand and a flash of sword-light broke out from Lingjian Peak and flew toward her. The silver Taiyan Sword stood in front of Ming Shu. The sword’s noise had died down.
Ming Shu grabbed the Taiyan Sword and looked at the people on the platform. “Do I have the right to be part of Lingjian Peak now?”
“You...”
“How is it possible...”
That was the Taiyan Sword!
They recognized it!
Why did the sword which didn’t recognize any owner for a hundred years recognize a three-spirit root owner?
What was happening?
Yan Yin remembered that he found her near the Lingjian Peak last time. She must have gone to find the sword that time...
Maybe it wasn’t her that chose the Taiyan Sword. It was the Taiyan Sword which chose her. That was why she could enter the Seven Peaks without any deterrence.
It must be like this!
Why the hell is it like this!
I purposely came to help her but she suddenly became the same rank as me. What kind of help does she need now?
How am I supposed to complete my mission!
“Congratulations to Lingjian Peak for having a new peak master.”
Jun Qing’s sentence caused Ming Shu’s identity to become a reality.
The sect leader’s expression changed continuously. He seemed to be in shock. In the end, he said, “Congratulations, my junior sister.”
The one who has the Taiyan Sword will take over Lingjian.
This is the rule.
The rest looked at each other and started speaking.
“Congratulations, Junior Sister.”
“Congratulations, Aunt Master.”
“Congratulations, Master...”
Ming Shu rose from a servant disciple to a peak master. Those people that were waiting to laugh at her couldn’t accept the news for a long time.
Yun Yao was so angry she could vomit blood.
She thought that she had gained the upper hand but in the end, Zi Luo still got to have Jun Qing as her master and Xuan Ji became the peak master of Lingjian Peak. What was the use of knowing the future?
Ming Shu looked at Yun Yao and her smile got bigger.
Wasn’t that annoying?
Wasn’t that annoying?
It’s good that you are angry.
My purpose is to make sure that you get angry.
...
The sect leader made arrangements for the newly selected disciples and then followed Ming Shu to Lingjian Peak with the rest of the peak masters.
Jun Qing took Zi Luo back to Yanyue Peak. He had no intention to participate in this event.
The sect leader and Ming Shu walked at the front. He sized up the person beside him. She was indeed a three-spirit root owner and her foundation was not there...
“Xuan Ji, Junior Sister, how did you get the Taiyan Sword?”
Since he couldn’t see anything, he decided to just ask.
Ming Shu waved the Taiyan Sword. ” I got it when I was catching the spirit deer.”
Spirit deer? Catching?
He couldn’t understand what she was saying.
“She caught a spirit deer to eat.” Yan Yin suddenly appeared beside the sect leader. “The spirit deer finally grew big, but before it could develop its intelligence, it was eaten by her. How can someone with such conduct become a peak master?”
“What?” The sect leader thought he heard wrong. “The spirit deer live within the Seven Peaks, she... Junior Sister was in the external division at that time. How could she enter and catch one”
This was the first time he heard of someone catching a spirit deer to eat.
Ming Shu smiled. “Uncle Master Yan Yin... Oh, sorry, Senior Brother let me in.”
Who let you in? Who let you in?
I didn’t do anything!
The sect leader’s gaze turned toward Yan Yin.
Yan Yin: “...”
It really wasn’t me.
Ming Shu continued to gain Hatred Points. “I just have a three-spirit root. If it weren’t for Senior Brother Yan Yin, how would I be able to enter the Seven Peaks? Sect Master, you must punish him. He was lucky that I am a kind person. What if the person he let in were a devil or demon?”
Kind person?
Is she talking about herself?
Aiyo, does she still want her face value?
Yan Yin wanted to go up and strangle her.
Yan Yin was the peak master of Lihun Peak. The sect leader didn’t dare to provoke him. The entirety of the sect’s elixirs was dependant on him.
Thus, he only coughed and said with a stern face, “This was an act of fate to allow you to meet the Taiyan Sword. Such coincidences.”
Ming Shu: “...” This person can bullshit better than me?
Yan Yin raised his eyebrows at Ming Shu, but didn’t dare to appear too pleased.
Ming Shu answered him with a smile. Continue to be happy for now. There will be time enough for you to cry later.
“However... Junior Sister can stop eating spirit deer.” The sect leader didn’t seem to notice the sparks flying between Ming Shu and Yan Yin and warned Ming Shu.
Although the spirit deer were not valuable, they were a specialty of the Seven Peaks. No one would think about eating them.
“The Yin Sect’s special dish tastes really good.” It was really good at replenishing stamina.
The sect leader’s mouth twitched. “Once you embark on the journey of cultivation, you should not have too many desires for food.”
What the hell is a special dish?
The Yin Sect is not a restaurant!
Yan Yin glanced at Ming Shu and grinned. The sect leader would kill her one day.
Ming Shu ignored Yan Yin’s gaze and tilted her head. Her smile was gentle. “I haven’t started learning the foundation yet.”
She said it blatantly.
Sect Master: “...”
What could he do when his newly elected Junior Sister was so weak?
There was already a super lazy Yan Yin giving him trouble. Now, there was another one...
He should just quit being the sect leader.
