Jiang Baimo was asking about the person who was fighting against him, Changkong Hao.

Changkong Hao also has a companion beast, but it is not a divine beast with orthodox bloodline, but a black dragon.

Leng Zhuxin had naturally never seen this before. After shaking her head, she looked at Jiang Baimo and said, "Since this young Taoist friend has woken up, I will leave first."

She didn't want Changkong Hao to see her and Jiang Baimo together, as this would attract Changkong Hao's attention too early.

She just wanted to leave alone, but Jiang Baimo used his uninjured right hand to support himself and stood up, limping two steps.

"I've been separated from my elders, and my cultivation is gone. Only Jueying is left to accompany me. I wonder if I can be with my benefactor?"

Jiang Baimo tried hard to pretend to be a child, looking at Leng Zhuxin with his pair of black eyes. With his pale face and injuries on his body, he really looked pitiful.

Leng Zhuxin frowned, glanced at the ferocious beast following Jiang Baimo, thought for a moment and said to Jiang Baimo, "I will stay in Xuanling Forest for two more days, so you can stay in the cave temporarily.

But I need Jueying to help me with my moves. In two days, regardless of whether your cultivation has recovered or not, I will leave."

Jiang Baimo knew that he and Leng Zhuxin had just met by chance. Leng Zhuxin had been very kind to save him with the spiritual water from the cold pond and to help him suppress the strange poison. If he said now that he wanted to follow Leng Zhuxin back to the sect, it would be a bit abrupt.

I thought I would spend these two days getting to know Leng Zhuxin better before speaking to her.

He patted the ferocious beast lightly and nodded in agreement.

But after thinking about it, he decided to ask Leng Zhuxin's name first, thinking that no matter whether he could return to the sect with Leng Zhuxin in two days, he would know who to repay when his cultivation recovered.

Leng Zhu thought about it and decided to tell Jiang Baimo his real name, but like Jiang Baimo, he hid his last name.

Jiang Baimo felt that it was a bit strange for him to call her by her name with such a child's body, so he called out awkwardly, "Sister Zhuxin."

After calling out "sister", his face turned completely red, but he finally broke through his mental barrier, and the next few times of calling her "sister" became easier to say.

……

Two days passed in a flash. Although Leng Zhuxin did not practice during these two days, his strength had increased significantly.

Now she can even fight back and forth with a fourth-stage mid-stage ferocious beast.

After making the last move, Leng Zhuxin retracted the Feishuang Sword, casually wiped the sweat off his face, took out a few spiritual fruits from the storage ring, placed them in front of Jiang Baimo, and said goodbye.

Jiang Baimo had recovered significantly from his injuries over the past two days, and had been trying to regain his strength. After countless attempts, he concluded that he needed to cultivate again, accumulating spiritual energy within his body to activate his eight extraordinary meridians, and using the longevity techniques he had learned to eliminate toxins from within, before he could regain his strength and shape.

So when Leng Zhuxin put down the spiritual fruit and prepared to leave, he did not take it, but asked Leng Zhuxin: "Sister Zhuxin, I wonder if I can be your junior brother? I want to join the same sect with you."

Leng Zhuxin was stunned by his question, and then looked at him and said, "You shouldn't be a person without a sect or school, and since you have enemies hiding in the dark, it might not be a good idea for you to become a disciple of the Qingxuan Sect."

Leng Zhuxin frowned slightly, as if she was thinking about Jiang Baimo.

After two days, Jiang Baimo had become quite skilled at acting cute. He shook his head and said, "There's nothing wrong with it. I can change my appearance, and it's easier to hide in a big sect.

I will leave once I find trace of my elders.

Sister, don’t worry about me bringing you trouble.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Leng Zhuxin saw Jiang Baimo turn the jade pendant on his waist, and his whole appearance changed completely, becoming an ordinary-looking little boy.

Immediately afterwards, the ferocious beast Jueying also disappeared from the ground and returned to the spirit beast space.

Seeing this, Leng Zhuxin only thought about it for a moment before agreeing, "I can take you back, but whether you can stay in Qingxuan Sect depends on you."

"Thank you, sister! I will definitely stay in Qingxuan Sect and won't let you down!"

Jiang Baimo showed a happy expression on his face at the right time, and then he picked up the spiritual fruit on the ground and handed it to Leng Zhuxin.

"Since you promised to take me with you, you should keep these spiritual fruits."

……

One person came and two people left, because the sect competition was about to begin in two hours.

Leng Zhuxin then flew on his sword and took Jiang Baimo up the mountain.

When she went down the mountain, she went through the side door which was only for exit but not for entry. When she came back, she went through the main door.

The disciple guarding the gate saw that she was carrying a child and checked her before letting her in.

Seeing that the time was approaching, Leng Zhuxin did not go back to the Sect Master Peak, but went to find Gu Wangchen with Feishuang Sword in one hand and Jiang Baimo in the other.

Outside of the Qingxuan Sect's annual disciple recruitment period, exceptions can be made to accept disciples if there are disciples or elders of the Qingxuan Sect who are at the Nascent Soul stage or above, or if there are people with outstanding natural qualifications.

To determine whether someone is gifted, one needs to test their spiritual roots in public and pass the test of climbing the ladder to heaven. Leng Zhuxin was afraid that the noise would be too loud and attract attention, so she chose the second option.

Gu Wangchen is in the Nascent Soul stage and can be used as an introducer.

Gu Wangchen was a little surprised when he saw his junior sister bringing a child back. Then he asked, "Junior sister, didn't you go out to gain experience? Why did you bring a child back?"

"I found it in the Xuanling Forest. I got separated from my elders and didn't remember much about it. I was injured, so I brought it back.

I want my senior brother to recommend me. If he has spiritual roots, I can let him stay in the sect to cultivate. If not, I can arrange for him to work as a handyman in the shop in the market. It is better than being eaten by monsters in the Xuanling Continent."

Leng Zhuxin said this deliberately.

Gu Wangchen took a look at the clothes Jiang Baimo was wearing, which was a precious garment made of heavenly silk, and knew that Jiang Baimo's background was not bad.

Then I looked at him again and saw that he did have injuries on his body. Although his face was clean, he looked pale. It was obvious that he was really injured.

"It's really hard for such a child to survive in the Xuanling Forest. I'm lucky to have met you, Junior Sister. Otherwise, I'm afraid he would have been eaten by the beast. Don't worry about settling him down. I'll take him to have his spiritual roots tested later.

If there is one, let him settle down in the sect first. If not, send him to the market as you said, Junior Sister.

I will also help look for his family.

You must be tired from training these past few days. Take a break before the competition starts. I'll be back soon."

After saying that, Gu Wangchen hurriedly took Jiang Baimo to the disciple hall.

He wanted to go and come back quickly, and luckily he got back before Leng Zhuxin went on stage.
