Maybe I shouldn't die.

Chapter 10 Selected

She is the eldest daughter in the family. Her mother became pregnant eight years after her marriage, and everyone in the family was full of expectations.

As a result, a girl was born.

Since then, my father could not stand the pressure and took my grandmother's niece as a concubine.

Now, the woman already has a son and a daughter, and has the support of her aunt. With both a son and a daughter, the woman is quite arrogant at home. Her mother, who has no son, lacks the confidence to compete with her, and her life becomes more and more difficult.

If the Ascension Order could be snatched, it would probably not be her turn to use it. But if she was chosen this time and the news spread back home, her mother's life would surely be better.

The one who brought her here this time was her cousin from her maternal grandparents' side, but unfortunately her cousin was over 15 and could no longer run for election.

Fang Yue then realized that it was not only the children who had the Ascension Order who could participate in the Ascension Conference. The Ascension Conference held every ten years was no secret among the powerful families. They would send their children to participate in the election every time. Only ordinary people like them did not know about it.

Fang Yue's heart moved when she thought of this. She looked around but didn't see any familiar figures. She wondered, my eldest brother must have known the news, did he not come to participate in the election or was he not elected?

I waited for a long time, until no more young men came with children. It was almost dusk, and the afterglow of the setting sun painted the entire sky orange.

It looks like a giant pumpkin pie, and it must be fragrant and sweet when you bite it. Fang Yue thought so and waited for a day until she was extremely hungry.

At this moment, a crane cry was heard from the sky. A crane with a red crown and white feathers, ten feet long, and wings spread out like a blue cloud, flew from a distance and landed on the cloud platform.

Zhou Xiao had the mentality of a little girl, and when she saw the bird, she couldn't help but let out a soft cry.

"What a beautiful crane."

"This is a crane, it can travel a thousand miles a day."

A young man next to him, wearing a gold and jade longevity locket around his neck, a mutton-fat jade ring around his waist, and covered in jewels, explained.

The boy's name was Xie Chongming. One of his ancestors was selected to ascend to the Immortal Society, and left some basic books on cultivating immortals at home. Therefore, the boy knew more than Fang Yue and his group.

The one who came down from the crane was the middle-aged Taoist holding the jade whisk.

"My name is Xie Shiguang, and I am in charge of the Ascension Meeting here. You can call me Deacon Xie."

"You have passed the preliminary selection and are destined to be immortals. You can be my disciples."

"I will give you one day to say goodbye to your families. Tomorrow at noon, a senior from the sect will come here to take you there. I hope you will arrive on time!"

After saying this, the middle-aged Taoist waved his sleeves, and in a flash, he was already sitting on the back of the crane. With a clear cry, the crane soared into the sky and went straight into the clouds.

That night, Fang Yue and her family were sitting in the courtyard.

"Brother, do you know that anyone under 15 years old can go to the Immortal Ascension Association to take the test?" Fang Yue asked Fang Li

"Yes," Fang Li nodded.

"Why didn't you go, brother?"

"Yuer, elder brother has found his own way."

Fang Yue stared at Fang Li intently. She could vaguely guess what Fang Li was going to do. Her tone was so difficult.

"That's difficult, and the world won't understand you. I don't want you to suffer that hardship." Yes, in this world, no one has successfully walked this path.

Fang Li touched his sister's head and looked up at the night sky. The stars were twinkling. His tone was full of determination.

"Although there are thousands of people, I will go."

Fang Yue looked at Fang Li at this moment. In the dark night, his whole body seemed to emit a kind of light. Although the light was weak, it could last for a long time.

The next morning, everyone came to the platform early to wait. Fang Yue saw Zhou Xiao and walked over to her and sat down.

Zhou Xiao was also very happy to see Fang Yue. After yesterday's conversation, they had become familiar with each other.

"I went to buy Yishui Order yesterday. Did your family buy it?" Zhou Xiao asked

"My family also bought one. With the Yishui Order, we can pass through the Ghost Forest. It is necessary to buy one." Fang Yue nodded.

"Life in Yishui City is too expensive, otherwise my cousin and his friends would like to settle here."

"It's a pity that I can't see my mother anymore. I miss her a little bit. The next time I have a chance to come back will be ten years later."

"My cousin said he would take good care of my mother."

"What do you think Yuxu Sect will be like? Will it be as majestic and magnificent as those sects in the storybooks?"

"How will the immortals take us away?"

Fang Yue knew that the chattering little girl in front of her was just too nervous. She was only an eight-year-old child. In her previous life, eight years old meant attending elementary school, but here she had to leave her hometown. Cultivating immortals was indeed something worth yearning for, but she could not erase the fear of leaving her hometown for a strange and unknown place.

Fang Yue held Zhou Xiao's hand tightly, wanting to give some comfort to the girl who was about to leave home.

Just after noon, Xie Shiguang landed on the high platform riding on a crane. He looked around and saw that everyone was there. He waved his sleeves and released a palm-sized boat. The boat grew as soon as the wind blew and soon it was several meters in size.

He went up first, and then the children lined up and went up one by one under the command of the monks from the Patrol Office.

When all the children were on the boat, Xie Shiguang waved his hand, and the boat slowly floated up, rising into the sky in the blink of an eye.

Not to mention others, even Fang Yue found it very magical. The wooden boat rose very quickly. She could see the clouds beside her quickly retreating downwards. However, sitting in the boat was as smooth as walking on flat ground, without feeling any dizziness at all.

Xie Shiguang explained to everyone, "This boat is a third-level magic weapon, with rune formations engraved on it."

Cultivating immortals is truly environmentally friendly, Fang Yue sighed in her heart, if it were in her previous life, this flying boat would definitely be rated as the "most environmentally friendly means of transportation".

When the flying boat reached the horizon, there was already strong winds all around. Fortunately, there was a circle of transparent protective shield outside the flying boat, so everyone was able to stand steadily on the flying boat.

The flying boat suddenly stopped. While everyone was puzzled, Deacon Xie took out a piece of talisman paper and turned it into a stream of light, flying towards their heads.
