Starting from helping someone rob a wedding, he was forced to hide in the Sunset Sect

"Before the sect competition begins, there will be a warm-up match." Xia Xiaomo said.

"What is the warm-up match?" Xu Yeyu asked.

"It's a small competition for active disciples before the sect competition. The content of the warm-up competition is different every year."

Xia Xiaomo picked up a piece of cake and put it in her mouth, and her mouth was immediately filled with the rich fragrance.

The corners of her mouth raised slightly, revealing a satisfied and happy smile.

Is it so delicious?

Xu Yeyu also took a piece of cake and put it in his mouth. It was quite delicious.

"I heard that there are some entertainment-oriented competitions in this sect competition. This is the information revealed by Elder Lin. Only the elders know the specific content."

"Whether it's the warm-up match, the entertainment match, or the sect competition, there will be corresponding rewards, and the top-ranked disciples will receive extra rewards."

Xia Xiaomo added: "I heard from a senior sister that the reward for the first place in the last sect competition was a local-level technique and a fourth-grade spiritual sword."

Xu Yeyu couldn't help but be shocked. Doesn't that mean he still has a chance to obtain the earth-level martial arts in a short period of time!

"This year happens to be the time when the secret realm opens once every five years. I heard that only cultivators below the foundation building stage can enter that secret realm."

"After the sect competition, the disciples who performed well should be allowed to enter the secret realm for some training."

......

......

Lin Xiaoying walked slowly along the familiar street, the sunlight shining through the gaps between the leaves onto her long, shiny black hair.

She stretched herself and wanted to have a bowl of sour plum soup today.

So she walked down the street toward the shop.

She looked at the wooden bucket filled with ice cubes placed next to the sour plum soup.

She couldn't help but feel curious. Where did so many ice cubes come from in this season?

She asked curiously, "Boss, it's autumn now, where did you get so much ice?"

There should be no ice in this store at this season. After all, she has lived in Youyuan Town for sixteen years and comes to this store to drink sour plum soup every once in a while.

"It's a trade secret." The boss said with a smile, "Xiaoying, are you here to drink sour plum soup today?"

The boss naturally knew this girl. She had often come to his shop to buy sour plum soup since she was a child.

Lin Xiaoying nodded.

"A bowl of sour plum soup, with ice cubes."

She handed the three cents to the boss. The sour plum soup was originally two cents, but adding ice cubes cost one cent.

She was still a little curious about where the ice came from.

If her guess was correct, it should be the monk who helped the boss make the ice, and considering that Youyuan Town was under the protection of the Sunset Sect.

There is only one answer, and that is the ice cubes made by the disciples of Sunset Sect!

Her eyes fell on the two monks sitting in the corner.

The appearance and temperament of monks are completely different from those of ordinary people, so they are naturally easy to identify.

Lin Xiaoying came to Xia Xiaomo's table with sour plum soup and asked with a smile, "Can I sit here?"

Xu Yeyu was a little surprised as there were other seats in the store.

Logically, he should sit at an empty table, so he looked at Xia Xiaomo with confusion.

Could it be that he knew her?

"Of course." Xia Xiaomo said with a smile.

Lin Xiaoying sat down, put down the sour plum soup and said, "Sister Xia, I haven't seen you for a long time. I didn't expect you to come and drink sour plum soup today."

Xu Yeyu couldn't help but ask: "How about you introduce who she is?"

He could see that the girl in front of him who called Xiaomo "sister" was an ordinary person, not a cultivator.

"She is a singer." Xia Xiaomo replied.

When Xu Yeyu heard this answer, his expression was a little strange. The more he thought about it, the more it sounded like an insult.

"I suspect you are cursing. How about telling me more?"

Lin Xiaoying was stunned for a moment. Was the introduction just now an insult?

She didn't understand that what Sister Xia said just now was not meant to be insulting. After all, she was indeed a singer.

"I'm a singer from Youyuan Town, my name is Lin Xiaoying." She introduced herself.

Lin Xiaoying turned her head and looked at Xia Xiaomo: "Sister Xia, is this person next to you your friend?"

Xia Xiaomo nodded, "His name is Xu Yeyu, and he is also a disciple of the Sunset Sect."

Xu Yeyu thought, is there such a profession as a singer in this world?

Lin Xiaoying drank some sour plum soup. The taste was different after adding ice cubes. It tastes better when it’s cold!

She asked, "I recently thought of a new song and will perform it at the Wanxia Pavilion Tea House in three days. Do you want to come and listen to it?"

"Okay, then I'll go listen to your new song in three days."

Xia Xiaomo turned her head and looked at Xu Yeyu and asked, "Do you remember the song I sang at the Hehuan Sect's event?"

"Remember, what's wrong with that song?" Xu Yeyu asked back.

"That song was written by Lin Xiaoying. I happened to hear her singing it when I passed by Wanxia Pavilion Tea House. Later, I helped her revise and supplement the lyrics."

"Sister Xia is amazing!"

Lin Xiaoying smiled and continued, "Actually, Sister Xia changed a lot of that song, so it can't be said to be my work. It's the work of Sister Xia and I!"

Xia Xiaomo placed a piece of cake in front of Lin Xiaoying and said, "We became friends that time. During that time, I would occasionally go to the teahouse to listen to her singing."

"I was quite busy after that, and I didn't go to listen to the music because of my training."

Xia Xiaomo looked at Lin Xiaoying and continued, "I have time to listen to music recently, but I heard from the teahouse owner that you are thinking about new songs, so you won't be singing for the time being."

......

......

A singer stood on the wooden stage. She was wearing a blue dress. Her singing voice was clear and moving, as clear as spring water.

After she performed the song, she bowed to the audience.

"Thank you all for coming."

Lin Xiaoying's gaze rested on Xia Xiaomo who was sitting in the corner. She didn't know this person.

Most of Lin Xiaoying's performances were attended by only friends and family, but she discovered that this person was present at every performance in the past two months.

Because she is not very popular, no one would come here specially to listen to her singing. Maybe some people who happen to be in the teahouse would come over and sit down at the seats here to listen to her singing.

But this person is always there. Does he like the songs she plays very much?

Lin Xiaoying walked off the stage, came to the wooden table where she was, and asked politely: "Lady, can I sit here and talk to you about the song?"

The reason why this person is called a female hero is because her temperament is completely different from that of ordinary people.

Youyuan Town is located at the foot of the Sunset Sect Mountain, so she has naturally met several cultivators.

In this small town, the monks are called young knights and female knights, and this has been passed down for hundreds of years.

"Okay, take a seat."

Lin Xiaoying sat down and asked excitedly, "You've been coming to the teahouse to listen to my songs recently. Are you interested in my songs?"

Xia Xiaomo smiled and nodded, saying, "You sing very well. You are an excellent singer."

Lin Xiaoying's eyes sparkled. This was the first time she heard a stranger praise her singing.

And he is a monk!

Xia Xiaomo really likes listening to music. There is no place dedicated to singing songs in Youyuan Town, and only Lin Xiaoying performs in this teahouse from time to time.

This teahouse will have a small wooden sign at the door with the time she comes to perform in the teahouse.

Xia Xiaomo would go down the mountain every few days to buy some food. When she saw this small wooden sign, she would know the time in advance and then come to this teahouse to listen to music.
