The top-level junior sister also wants to act weak today

Chapter 19: Each Peak Starts Fighting for People

Yan Chuan helplessly held his forehead, his tone a bit troubled: "Master, I think you may have misunderstood."

"Misunderstand?"

Upon hearing this, Wan Jinan scoffed and shook his head, saying in disbelief, "Impossible! There were many eyes watching you that day. They saw you and Jiang Yingxue chatting intimately for a long time under the golden ginkgo tree. How could this be? If she wasn't interested in you, could it be that you already knew each other?"

Yan Chuan, feeling guilty, froze for a moment. He had indeed chatted with Jiang Yingxue for quite a long time that day, and he had no intention of causing misunderstandings, but he had not expected the news to spread so quickly.

So he quickly changed the subject and asked, "But what does this have to do with Chu Ying? Chu Ying applied for the Fourth Peak, and she chose physical training."

Seeing that he was still stuck in a rut, Wan Jinan looked helpless and sighed softly, "You are such a stubborn person."

After saying that, he raised his hand and pointed at Chu Ying and Jiang Yingxue not far away. The two were standing side by side, talking happily, and seemed to have a very close relationship.

"Look at those two, they're always together in everything they do. If you could just lock Jiang Yingxue up, brainwash her a little, and have her persuade Chu Ying to come to our First Peak, wouldn't that solve the problem? Look at your good looks; pulling off the beauty trap shouldn't be difficult for you, right?"

"I don't want it." Yan Chuan refused decisively.

When Wan Jinan heard this, the smile on his face froze for a moment, but it quickly returned to normal. He knew his disciple's temper well; if hard tactics didn't work, he'd try soft tactics. With a roll of his eyes, he began to lower his stance, his tone pleading, "My dear disciple, you see, our First Peak is weak right now. You don't want us to stay like this, do you? Please, help me persuade Chu Ying to come to our sect."

"Master, don't force what is destined for you. Since the competition is over, I will take my leave."

After saying that, Yan Chuan put away the tea set beside him, turned around and left, fearing that his master would start nagging again in a moment.

As the night deepens, the moonlight becomes brighter.

Yan Chuan had just returned to his room, lit the lamp on the table, and was about to take a good rest. But at this moment, a white parrot suddenly flew onto his windowsill, its round figure standing out in the moonlight.

"Good disciple, good disciple, please help your master."

The parrot flapped its wings, making a crisp sound.

"Good disciple, good disciple, please help your master."

Yan Chuan frowned slightly, revealing a hint of helplessness. He looked at the parrot, his irritation gradually rising. He sighed and said, "Master really does everything he can."

The parrot kept chattering: "Good disciple, good disciple..."

Yan Chuan couldn't bear it any longer, and suddenly pulled out the long sword from his waist. With a flash of cold light, the tip of the sword pointed directly at the parrot.

He said coldly: "Go back and tell Master that I will convey his intention to Chu Ying. As for whether she is willing to come to the First Peak, it is entirely up to her. Tell him not to send you to bother me again."

The parrot was frightened by the sword light and flapped its wings violently, with its white feathers flying everywhere. It quickly shouted, "Got it! Got it!" There was a hint of panic in its voice.

It flapped its wings hurriedly, flew around the windowsill twice, and immediately disappeared into the night, leaving only a rapidly receding white shadow in the moonlight.

Yan Chuan heard that Jiang Yingxue and Chu Ying got up early every day to practice, so the next morning, Yan Chuan went to the door of the Death Pavilion early to wait for them.

However, today, he waited until noon before he saw the two of them walking out of the Death Pavilion slowly, arm in arm.

Seeing this, Yan Chuan quickly strode forward and stood in front of the two of them: "Miss Chu, can you please spare me a moment to talk?"

Chu Ying was stunned when she saw that it was Yan Chuan. "Brother Yan? Are you here to see me?"

After saying that, Chu Ying turned her head and glanced at Jiang Yingxue: "Are you sure you're not looking for Yingxue?"

"I came to see you." Yan Chuan emphasized again: "Can you please excuse me for a moment and talk?"

Chu Ying blinked, then said: "It's okay, if you have anything to say, just stay here. Yingxue is not a stranger, and I'm in a hurry to have dinner with Yingxue, so please make it short."

Yan Chuan stood before her, a look of embarrassment on his face, but he finally spoke: "Okay, the First Peak Master Wan Jinan wants to take you in as his disciple, so he asked me to ask your wishes. After the exam, are you willing to transfer your application to the First Peak?"

Chu Ying was stunned when she heard this, and was obviously a little surprised. "Ah? So you came here to persuade me to go to the First Peak. But why did you come only now? People from the Second, Third, Fourth, and Fifth Peaks all came to me yesterday. I thought the First Peak had no interest in me."

When Yan Chuan heard this, his heart skipped a beat, and his expression stiffened slightly. He frowned and asked quickly, "Have they contacted you? Have you decided which peak to go to?"

"Not yet. The conditions they offer are too tempting. I haven't decided which peak to go to. So if I go to the first peak, what are you going to give me?" Chu Ying looked at Yan Chuan with anticipation.

But in reality, the First Peak has nothing but some pie in the sky...

After a long while, Yan Chuan managed to squeeze out a few words: "Having an experienced master's caring guidance... does it count?"

Chu Ying raised her eyebrows. "But other peaks also have masters who provide caring guidance... Is there anything that your family has that others don't?"

Upon hearing this, Yan Chuan had no choice but to use his trump card. Pointing at Jiang Yingxue, he said, "We have her on the First Peak. Miss Jiang's first choice was our First Peak. If you join another peak, you will have to follow others on their sect missions and will hardly see Miss Jiang anymore. As the saying goes, money is easy to find, but a soulmate is hard to find. Are you willing to abandon Miss Jiang and go to another peak?"

These words obviously touched Chu Ying's heart.

She clapped her hands suddenly. "That seems to make sense! Even if other peaks offer tempting conditions, they are just treasures and elixirs, nothing compared to my friend! If I can't see Yingxue if I go to other peaks, then I'd better go to the First Peak."

"So Miss Chu is willing to come to the First Peak?"

Chu Ying had actually already decided to transfer to the First Peak and join Jiang Yingxue. It was just that Jiang Yingxue had been telling her to keep it quiet, lest they come knocking on her door. Sure enough, yesterday, the other peaks all came forward with cordial invitations, leaving only the First Peak.

Chu Ying and Jiang Yingxue looked at each other, then said, "What I mean is, if Yingxue is at the First Peak, I will go to the First Peak."

After hearing this, Yan Chuan finally breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Yingxue beside him coughed twice and slowly said, "But Master Yan really thinks too highly of me. I only got 25 points, ranking around 90th among all the candidates. But each peak only accepts three to five people. It's even a question whether I can enter the Xianyun Sect. Look at my weak appearance, how can I guarantee that I will be ranked first?"
