Murong Li and the other two soon arrived at the gate of the Tianjian Sect's ceremony. The maid bowed her head and greeted them respectfully:

"Elder Murong is well."

"Is the sect master here?"

"We have been waiting for you for a long time, please come in." The maid opened the door and invited several people in.

Raising her head slightly, Lin Qingqing was immediately attracted by what was in front of her. She saw a plaque with the three characters "Lingxiao Palace" hanging above it. It was shining brightly. If you look closely, you will find that there seems to be something hidden on the plaque that makes people unable to look directly at it for a long time.

Feeling a sharp pain, Lin Qingqing had to look away and followed Murong Li over the slightly higher threshold. Then she was attracted by the environment inside the hall. Like a curious baby, she looked around at the decorations in the hall. They were all rare treasures she had never seen before. She was a little shocked in her heart. This was just the tip of the iceberg of the vast world of cultivation.

"Does it look good?" A gentle and lazy voice sounded in Lin Qingqing's ears.

"It looks good!" Lin Qingqing was only concerned with admiring the rare treasures and replied subconsciously.

"Ahem." Murong Li was about to remind Lin Qingqing to lower her head and look ahead, but was stopped by the man.

The man smiled softly and asked, "Have you finished reading it?"

Lin Qingqing stared at the shell-shaped gems on the wall and said, "I can't see enough of them!"

"Hahahaha..." The man was immediately amused by Lin Qingqing's words and let out a hearty laugh.

Lin Qingqing realized at this moment that she was being laughed at. She looked up and saw that the person who was talking to her was the Tianjian Sect's Sect Master who was sitting upright in the Lingxiao Hall. She felt extremely embarrassed and could only say, "I'm sorry to have made a fool of myself, Sect Master."

"No problem. This is the first time I've seen such a straightforward person. Quite interesting. Do you have anything you like? Just consider it a gift for the little girl."

"Haha, that's not very good." Lin Qingqing replied with a forced smile.

"No need to be polite to me."

"Your Excellency, I won't be polite to you, Master. I want that sapphire blue gem. It will be perfect when set on my sword."

The sect leader teased Murong Li: "Where did you find such an interesting disciple, Ali?"

Murong Li had a calm and composed look on his face. He just looked at the sect leader quietly without saying a word. He was just so willful!

It would be a lie for Lin Qingqing to say that she was not moved. She just happened to see the sapphire inlaid in the shell shape on the wall. Then she drew her sword from the scabbard at her waist and showed everyone the spot on the hilt where a gem was missing, as if to hint to the leader: It is such a coincidence, it would be unreasonable for you not to give it to her.

However, when the sect leader saw the sword, his pupils trembled, and a dark look flashed in his eyes, and then he returned to his usual mysterious expression.

The leader asked, "My friend, your sword is quite good. I wonder where you got it from."

Lin Qingqing didn't think her sword was anything special, but she still answered the sect leader's question respectfully, saying, "I got it by chance from the human world."

"The human world?"

At this time, Murong Li interrupted and said, "I haven't introduced him to the sect master yet. This young man is from the human world. He was about to go to the seven major sects for a sect test, but he fainted on the roadside for unknown reasons. He was found by my disciples who were patrolling the outer perimeter of the barrier. After finding out that his identity was fine, I reported it to the sect without any results, so I brought him back to the sect privately. Although his behavior was inappropriate, it is in line with our sect's consistent practice of maintaining friendly relations with other sects. He can be rewarded. As for the steward, although he did nothing wrong, he did not take action, so he can be punished with a minor punishment."

The leader listened to Murong Li's story and nodded in agreement. Then he turned to look at Luluo and said:

"You are the disciple on patrol, right?"

"Yes, Master."

"What's your name?"

"Master, my name is Luluo."

"Luluo, I'll give you one month's salary as a reward this time," the clan leader casually threw a sign to her, "Take it and go to the treasure pavilion to choose a magic weapon you like."

Green Radish was overjoyed and said quickly, "Thank you, Master."

The leader turned his head and looked at Lin Qingqing, and asked, "What are your plans, young friend?"

Lin Qingqing thought for a moment and said, "I just heard from Senior Murong that the Sect Master has a way to send me back to the seven major sects to participate in the sect test. I wonder if the Sect Master is willing."

“That’s true, but it’s not that I don’t want to…” The leader of the Tianjian Sect hesitated to speak.

Lin Qingqing was puzzled and asked, "What are you worried about, Sect Master?"

"To be honest, although the Tianjian Sect has a good relationship with the seven major sects, the geographical location is far away, and we haven't had a close relationship with them for hundreds of years. I'm afraid you don't know that the Wanluo World is not big, but even for Elder Murong in the Nascent Soul stage, it would take more than half a year to fly from the Tianjian Sect to the seven major sects."

"That's true." Murong Li agreed.

Lin Qingqing on the other side was overjoyed after hearing this, but she didn't show it on the surface. She asked, "Then what should I do?"

Each of the three had his own thoughts, but their ideas were surprisingly consistent.

Sect Leader: Restrain her!

Murong Li: Catch her!

Lin Qingqing: Stay!

"Originally, there were teleportation arrays connecting the Tianjian Sect, Zhongzhou, and the seven major sects. However, a few days ago, the teleportation array from the Tianjian Sect to Zhongzhou seemed to have problems and could not be used for teleportation. Yesterday, we received news from Zhongzhou that someone had tampered with the teleportation array and it would take a long time to repair it. It seems that it was really a coincidence that you arrived at this critical moment."

"So that's how it is. In that case, I'll just wait. Time is just a blink of an eye for cultivators, but I'm afraid I'll have to bother your sect for a while longer." Lin Qingqing's words were completely opposite to what she was thinking, because if she showed that she really wanted to stay in the Tianjian Sect, others might become suspicious of her. Therefore, she couldn't let others know her true thoughts.

The sect leader smiled and said, "It's okay. Although the Tianjian Sect is located at the westernmost end of the Wanluo World and is isolated from the outside world, it does not reject strangers. You can stay here, my friend."

Seeing that the sect leader was about to end the conversation, Luoluo spoke up in time to stop him.

"Master, I have something else to report."

"Oh? What's the matter?"

"It's about Senior Sister Bai Bing'er."

"Tell me, what good thing has the Bai family's precious granddaughter done again?"

Luoluo glanced at Murong Li nervously. Seeing that he didn't seem to be ready to speak for her, she gathered her emotions and said with courage, "Senior Sister Bai seems to have misunderstood something and regards Fellow Daoist Lin as a love rival."

"Bai Bing'er is a little girl who is indeed overly spoiled by the Bai family. I will talk to her later."

"Can……"

Luoluo wanted to say something but was secretly interrupted by Lin Qingqing who used her elbow and spoke out loud to interrupt her.

"Master, I won't bother you any more. I'll take my leave now."

"Row."

Murong Li was completely dumbfounded now. This was totally different from what he had expected. He immediately became anxious and frantically signaled to the sect leader, but the other party just pretended to be stupid. Murong Li had no choice but to take action himself.

Murong Li adjusted his expression, showing what he thought was a kind smile, and said, "Little friend Lin, wait a minute."

This old fox!

From Lin Qingqing's perspective, what she saw was not a slightly older and kind cultivator, but a weird uncle who was obviously up to something else! She felt very uncomfortable at the moment, but she still asked the other party politely:

"Senior Murong?"

"To be honest, I was overjoyed the first time I saw you. This is an experience I haven't had in over five hundred years."

Lin Qingqing:?

Urgent! Waiting online! What does this mean? No way? Senior, you don’t want to be the old cow eating the young grass!

Lin Qingqing was immediately shocked by her own thoughts and asked timidly, "Senior, what do you mean?"

Even the clan leader who was sitting in the upper seat frowned and said:

"Hey! Murong, you don't want to..."
