Chapter 944

Secular World Divine Maiden

Seven maidens from Secular World Sect left a yellow streak of afterimages behind them, embellishing their descent into the heart of the city vacated for them with flower petals as they hopped from one golden lotus to the next so lightly that they gave the impression of being weightless. A tall maiden adorned in green landed in the centre of the seven, drawing attention with her eloquence and Body Synthesis Realm Ninth Layer cultivation.

“It really is you,” Mu Yu subconsciously enunciated, then suppressed his urge to run over and embrace her.

“What’s the matter?” Chen Xi inquired, noticing Mu Yu’s emotional high.

“I’m all right. I just remembered something from the past,” replied Mu Yu, mulling, I wonder if she still remembers me after all these years? I’m now the public enemy of cultivators.

“Don’t worry about,” remarked Xiaoshuai, sharing another meat bun with Chen Xi.

Though the elegant woman attired in white next to Tian Ran’s cultivation appeared to be Body Synthesis Realm at a glance, Mu Yu could see through the concealment and recognise her Ascension Realm cultivation. Though the woman had the appearance of a woman barely in her thirties, there was no hiding the folds of skin by the corners of her eyes. As the appointed successor to Secular World Sect, Tian Ran’s safety was the sect’s priority at all times, hence the presence of an elder to guard her.

The woman dressed in white used her qi to force those trying to steal glimpses of them from the sky back to the ground, ensuring nobody was able to feast their eyes on them within a hundred square metres from above.

“Who’s the one in white?”

“Elder Yan Qingyun, an elder supposedly almost a hundred despite her appearance.”

“They really don’t age, huh?”

“Do you really need to put on such haughty airs?” griped Mu Yu, regrouping with Chen Xi’s parents.

Chen Xi’s mother inquired, “Immortal Master, do you think Chen Xi has a chance of being chosen?”

“She will be fine,” assured Mu Yu.

“I am glad to hear that.” Chen Xi’s father stroked her head.

Tian Ran and her Yan Qingyun sat down on chairs carved in the shape of phoenixes and spawned a phantasmal lotus with a ten metre radius to ward off the heat overhead. Families had gathered at the spot Secular world Sect’s group was gathered for their daughters to be tested. Consequently, it was close to impossible for Mu Yu to elope with Tian Ran without anyone noticing.

“You got this, Chen Xi!” cheered Xiaoshuai, cleaning the grease off her with spiritual qi.

“Thank you!”

“Pfft, a broke bum still holding onto Sword Shadow Dust Gale’s statue wants to join Secular World Sect? He’s a traitor. What are you, stupid or ignorant?” snubbed an adult.

“True God is not a traitor!” rebuked Chen Xi.

A nine-year-old girl with the adult added, “Everyone with ties to him is now interrogated as a criminal. You should smash that laughable toy apart if you want to join Secular World Sect.”

“True God is a hero. You can’t even purchase his statue anymore.” Chen Xi hugged her statue tightly.

“If he’s a hero, we’d all be living in fear now. He’s the one who released the elemental demons. Nobody wants you,” insulted the girl.

“That’s rich, coming from an ugly, conceited and annoying lass,” Xiaoshuai ribbed.

“Who did you call ugly?”

“Uh… you. Is it that difficult for you to figure out?”

“Listen kid, I will teach you a lesson if you disparage my daughter ag-”

Xiaoshuai spat a chicken bone directly into the man’s mouth, sending the latter in a choking and coughing frenzy.

The man wanted to break down the bone using his Golden Core Realm spiritual energy, yet he could not even put a crack in it. His daughter thumped his back, asking, “What’s the matter, Dad?”

Xiaoshuai pulled a zany face at Chen Xi without a care in the world, much to her joy.

Addressing over two thousand girls who passed the preliminary test, as well as their parents, the city lord, a Spirit Severing Realm cultivator, announced, “We will now be commencing the physical examination. Those who qualify will proceed to the successive test.”

Tian Ran walked toward the crowd, interjecting with an intermission upon locking eyes with Mu Yu as she sensed a familiar aura but unable to recognise his appearance. Though her rhythm broke for but a split second, her bodyguard did not let it slip here, therefore locking her qi onto Mu Yu.

Sharp, are you? Mu Yu inwardly remarked, feigning ignorance toward the aggressive qi.
