After this matter was resolved, Gu Ning felt relieved and could not help complaining to Zhou Wentian, "There is one more thing. Why can the inner disciples of your Shenshui Sect be like that?"

Without any guilt, Gu Ning began to question them, "They actually dared to draw their swords against us in the territory of my Mingyue Sect. Zhou Wentian, didn't Sect Master Li Guzi punish those bad disciples?"

Zhou Wentian fell silent. After a long while, he gently shook his head, sighed, and said nothing.

Gu Ning blinked, indicating that he didn't understand.

"The territory of Shenshui Sect is remote." After a long while, Zhou Wentian spoke slowly with a slightly bitter voice, "Many resources are tributes from the noble families affiliated with Shenshui Sect, so many disciples of Shenshui Sect are from noble families. The one who provoked you just now is a direct descendant of a large family."

At this point, Gu Ning also understood. Although they were affiliated with the Chenshui Sect, the Chenshui Sect also relied on the support of these families. If they stopped supporting it, the resources of the Chenshui Sect would be even less.

“And the Shenshui Sect has always been at the bottom of the seven major sects, which has caused dissatisfaction among the noble families.” Zhou Wentian sighed lightly, “It’s not that I covet this realm-breaking pill, but I have to break through to the golden elixir.”

The hope of the entire sect always requires taking on a lot of things. If those hard-earned resources are invested in oneself, then one must give back corresponding value to the sect.

Gu Ning sighed, "It's my fault this time. I didn't know that Shenshui Sect was in such a difficult situation."

She came from the mortal world and joined the largest sect, Mingyue Sect. How could she have imagined that there would be a sect that would be held hostage by the immortal cultivation family?

As expected... whoever controls the resources is the boss.

"But..." After thinking for a while, Gu Ning decided to give a brief reminder, "There is no order without rules. The quality and qualifications of the disciples are equally important."

Recalling the battle to exterminate the Shenshui Sect in the book, all those disciples and elders who knelt on the ground and begged for mercy burst into tears.

If they can't get things in order, will their Chenshui Sect repeat the same mistakes if the demons come to visit in the future?

"I know." Zhou Wentian's voice became firm, "So I have to become stronger. I have to become strong enough to fight against those immortal cultivation families."

How could he not know it? And how could Li Guzi not know it?

But... for now I can only turn a blind eye.

Talking about such a heavy topic, the teenagers were all silent.

Why should we bear these things at such a young age?

The direct descendants of other sects are all treasures held in the palm of their hands. The heads and elders all devote their all to cultivating the future of the immortal world, and the disciples in the sect all look up to and worship them.

But when he arrived at the Shenshui Sect, Zhou Wentian, who was born with the ultimate sword bone spiritual root, had to bear a heavy responsibility that he shouldn't have to bear at his age.

"Master picked me up from the Weak Water River, so I naturally cannot let you down." Seeing everyone's worried eyes, Zhou Wentian smiled brightly, "You don't have to be so worried. I am already very lucky in this life."

"Gu Ning." Suddenly, Zhou Wentian's clear eyes flickered slightly, and his eyes were filled with a sense of mutual admiration. He said, "Let's compete again in the sect competition tomorrow."

Gu Ning nodded seriously, "Of course I'll accompany you."

After that, the heavy atmosphere just now disappeared, and Gu Ning chuckled, "You better work hard, my speed of breaking through the realm is on the list."

She stretched out two fingers and waved them in front of everyone, "I can advance two levels in a row in battle."

"And me, and me." Gu Rou also jumped out and said with a smile, "I will definitely be very powerful by then, and I will definitely not be powerless to fight back against those who hurt me."

"Then I will join too. When I return to the sect, I will definitely practice like my life depends on it." Fan Sisi said unconvincedly, "Then you can just wait for me to kill everyone."

Xie Nian glanced at Fan Sisi provocatively and sneered softly, "Come on, don't do that. I don't even know what you're like. It's better to expect me than to expect you, Miss Fan!"

"Xie Nian, you want to die!"

"Wow, Miss Fan is angry and embarrassed!" As soon as the words fell, Fan Sisi pounced towards Xie Nian. Xie Nian's body shook and dodged suddenly. The two of them immediately chased each other in this small house.

Everyone chuckled and shook their heads.

Finally, Chen Tian raised his hand weakly, "Then I'll join one too. During the sect competition, I will definitely be better than all of you."

The room was filled with laughter. The young men did not know what fate had planned for them yet. On such a clear autumn day, they planned their next reunion.

On the second day, the freshman test match came to an end, and each sect boarded their own flying boat.

Gu Ning stood in the Xiuxian Square, her clothes fluttering in the wind as the flying boat soared into the sky.

She raised her head and saw Gu Rou waving at her vigorously.

"Sister, I'm leaving. From now on, I will be the one to protect you!" The little girl had tears in her eyes and pouted her mouth, but she had already made up her mind.

Gu Ning smiled and waved, "I know, our Arou is the best."

Zhou Wentian stood on the flying boat and saw Gu Ning laughing until tears came out of her eyes. He couldn't help but raise his hand silently and muttered softly: "Gu Ning, see you next time."

"Gu Ning, goodbye!"

"Gu Ning, goodbye!"

"Gu Ning, goodbye!"

At the same time, three voices sounded in unison. Gu Ning raised her head and looked at Fan Sisi, Xie Nian and Chen Tian, ​​who were waving at her with a smile on their faces. She also waved back in a hurry.

"Goodbye."

Turning her head again, she saw Zhou Wentian quietly retracting his hand. She chuckled and shouted, "My beautiful lady Zhou, see you next time!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Wentian's face suddenly darkened and the flying boat began to move.

Gu Ning burst into laughter instantly.

Amid such laughter, Zhou Wentian's fair ears turned red uncontrollably, and the corners of his lips moved slightly, "See you next time."

The flying boat slowly left the territory of Mingyue Sect. Gu Ning stood there, suddenly feeling a sad emotion of parting.

She raised her hand to wipe her tears, and Ye Xiaoshu quietly approached her from behind.

"Hey, don't be so sad, we are just disciples of the same sect."

Ye Xiaoshu awkwardly handed Gu Ning a handkerchief and said, "Wipe it off. You're crying so ugly."

“Wuwuwu… Third Senior Sister, wuwuwu…”

Gu Ning hugged Ye Xiaoshu's arm and sobbed. Ye Xiaoshu pouted, but gently touched Gu Ning's head.

"Well, the mountains are high and the rivers are long, there will always be a time when we meet again, just don't let yourself get beaten to tears when the time comes."

"No way." Gu Ning sniffed, "I'm so awesome."

“Tsk~~~~” Ye Xiaoshu tapped Gu Ning’s forehead, “Let’s go to our Mingyue Peak. Master has prepared a welcome gift package for you.”
