Of course, with Tu Muyao's personality, she would definitely be the first to enter. Not long after, she heard sounds of fighting inside. Soon, a strong disciple was beaten out of the room. A clear and loud voice was heard from inside," I've said it before. I'm taking in disciples on behalf of the Sect Master. I can be considered your master. Don't test my patience or my ability. Otherwise, you'll be the ones to regret it…"
The disciple who was beaten spat out a mouthful of blood. His eyes were filled with fear and surprise. There were a few people around him who wanted to help him up, but he fiercely pushed everyone away and limped away. Someone sighed,"Why provoke Senior Sister? You're really tired of living!"
"Sigh, that's right, that's right…You really overestimate yourself!”
Not long after, Tu Muyao and the other two disciples came out with a smile. Tu Muyao quickly ran to Xue Tian's side and said,"Xue Tian, Xue Tian, let me tell you. Sister Huo was really gentle just now. She patiently explained to us the cultivation method in the future and even demonstrated it herself. When we demonstrated it, she even watched us patiently and praised me.”
"Is that so? That's great! (Xue Tian said sincerely) But the person who was beaten out was…"
"Hai, he was just not convinced that a woman was teaching him things, so he glared at Sister Huo at the beginning. Then, he deliberately made a move at Sister Huo. How could that little trick escape Sister Huo's eyes? That was why that person ended up like that! In my opinion, Sister Huo is still soft-hearted. If it were me…hmph hmph, I'll beat him until he can't get out of bed for a month and only knows how to call for his mother! Hehe!" Tu Muyao fell into her own fantasy, and Xue Tian felt helpless. It seemed like a book had once written that it was not good to speak ill of others behind their backs. Xue Tian wanted to stop her, but he thought that Tu Muyao would definitely refute him. Why did he have to argue with her?
Xue Tian was not in a hurry. After all, he still had to cook for Miss Tu after the test. Why was he in such a hurry? "Tumu, I still have to make some food for you later. Can you go and buy some ingredients?" You see, our levels are far apart. It's not a good thing for you to always wait for me here, right?”
"Hmm? Do you dare to use the ingredients I bought?" Tu Muyao blinked her big eyes at Xue Tian. Xue Tian couldn't help but sigh in her heart. She was right about that. When she took this young lady to the market to buy ingredients, the end result was that she bought whatever she wanted to eat, regardless of whether it was good or bad. In the end, she bought a bunch of useless things and gave them all to the swill bucket the next day.
"Well... I guess you don't want to go, do you?”
"Hehe, why don't we go out and eat something good tonight? It could also be considered a celebration for today's success!？Besides, I haven't dressed as a man in a long time. We can go to the night market tonight. Maybe there will be something interesting! Hehe!" Tu Muyao's eyes were like stars.
"Um…alright!" Anyway, she, Miss Tu, was not short of money. Xue Tian often helped the Elders of the Book Collection Pavilion and the Elders of the Poison Technique Pavilion. He often received all kinds of strange but valuable rewards. Therefore, Xue Tian was considered to be a little rich. He was still looking forward to occasionally going out to enjoy himself.
"Alright, it's a happy decision! Then I'll go back and prepare first. We'll set off after lunch, okay?”
Seeing Xue Tian nod with a smile, Tu Muyao disappeared into the crowd with a radiant face.
Xue Tian was afraid that Miss Tu would be anxious, so he discussed with the other disciples and let him go in first. However, before he could go in, Xin 'er stopped him at the door and said softly,"Young Master Xue, the Sect Master said that you should come in last…"
Xue Tian went back and forth to look…In the end, he would probably have to wait until after noon. Moreover, the number of people left was odd. If he was the last to enter, then he would definitely be the only one left. Xue Tian frowned. He didn't know what Huo Yunxiao was up to, but he didn't dare to disobey his senior sister. He could only sit back down resentfully, silently hoping that Tu Muyao wouldn't be angry.
When Xue Tian was the only one left, he strolled in. When he saw Huo Yunxiao's tired face, Xue Tian could not help but feel a little sympathetic. It must have been hard on her to let Senior Sister manage so many things alone! When Huo Yunxiao heard Xue Tian's arrival, he raised his head. His eyes shined brightly as he smiled,"Xue Tian, I've actually seen your abilities…The reason why I let you be the last one is because I'm afraid that the other disciples will say that I'm being unfair…But, for the sake of fairness, you still have to go through the process. First, you have to heat up your body, then light this candle…After that, you have to burn it in an instant!”Huo Yunxiao held a white cotton cloth in his hand." And you can't burn me!”
Xue Tian instantly understood why the apprentice had been beaten out.
Xue Tian followed Huo Yunxiao's instructions and soaked himself first. Then, he activated his internal energy. In an instant, steam rose and the water quickly disappeared. Xue Tian's clothes were as dry as before. Huo Yunxiao smiled and nodded, indicating for him to proceed to the next one. Very smoothly, Xue Tian lit the candle ten feet away. After that, Xue Tian calmed down and activated the heat around his body. A fireball appeared in his hand. Hu, the ball of fire flew over and hit the cotton cloth. In an instant, the cotton cloth disappeared, and Huo Yunxiao's hand seemed to be fine. As his internal energy dissipated, Xue Tian felt a faint chill run down his spine. Maybe Jiner was absorbing heat again? Xue Tian didn't think too much about it. Seeing Huo Yunxiao's approving gaze, he was excited.
"Alright, from what I see, you have now successfully become a member of the Middle Gate. Congratulations…you have to work harder in your future cultivation. Try your best to experience your newly strengthened soul so that you can proceed to the next stage of cultivation!”
"Alright, thank you Senior Sister! Xue Tian, take your leave!"
Huo Yunxiao rubbed his glabella and took a light sip of tea to relax his body. Finally, he let out a long breath, as if he was very relaxed. A figure scuttled over and a warm palm force attacked him. Huo Yunxiao did not move at all. The air around him seemed to suddenly distort and the palm force disappeared without a trace. The person who rushed in looked at Huo Yunxiao with a smile."Miss is indeed powerful. Even when she's resting, her senses are still so sensitive to her surroundings!”
The person who came was none other than Huo Yunxiao's personal maid, Xin 'er.
"You!" Huo Yunxiao did not say much and gestured for her to sit down. She did not stand on ceremony. It turned out that the two of them were as close as sisters in private, almost inseparable from each other.
"Miss, there's something…I still want to ask!”
"You want to ask Xue Tian, right? You saw it clearly from outside just now. What do you think?”Huo Yunxiao asked instead of answering.
" I think most of them…their souls are just white. Even if some of them are already at the middle gate, their souls are only a thin white. I think there are still some people who didn't listen to you…But Xue Tian…I can't see clearly…"
"You? Can't see clearly?" Huo Yunxiao looked at Xin 'er in disbelief.
"What's wrong? [You don't believe me?] Miss, there are always a few abnormal people in this world! However, from what I can see…his soul is so blurry, and it's faintly glowing with a golden light…I'm not sure what his current condition is…but I think you should be able to sense that he's already on the high gate…but it also seems like…there's nothing…why did you…"
"Xin 'er, to tell you the truth…I don't feel anything…If I didn't see the move he used last night, I would have already decided to give up on this unpolished jade and let him fend for himself!”
"You can't even feel it? This person…Where did he come from?”Xin 'er couldn't help but reveal a worried gaze.
" Fortunately, you reminded me…" Huo Yunxiao smiled in relief.
When he came out, it was already past noon. Xue Tian smiled bitterly. It seemed that Miss Tu was already impatient from waiting. She was probably already pacing back and forth in her room. Perhaps…the things in the house had already been destroyed! Thinking of this, Xue Tian let out a sigh of relief and hurried back to his residence.
Looking out the window, there was nothing unusual in the room. Xue Tian quietly walked in and saw a person on her bed. Who else could it be but Tu Muyao? Xue Tian smiled wryly. Seeing the exquisite dishes on the table, her heart warmed. She covered Tu Muyao with a blanket before sitting down at the table and eating.
This meal must have been prepared for a long time. It was already cold, but it still tasted delicious. She did not know where she got it from. There would not be any delicious food in the apprentice's kitchen. Xue Tian became happier as she ate. She studied the dishes as she ate, wanting to learn how to make these exquisite dishes. This research took up most of the afternoon. When Tu Muyao woke up naturally, she looked at the sky, lifted the blanket, picked up a pillow, and threw it at Xue Tian. Xue Tian quickly caught it."Tumu, what are you doing?"
"Didn't we agree to go out and play? What are you doing? I waited for you for so long (She rubbed her eyes, still looking a little sleepy, but her mouth kept talking non-stop)…Why didn't you wake me up! I still want to go out!" She jumped off the bed and rushed towards Xue Tian angrily. Xue Tian scratched his head.
"Aiya, I was busy studying these dishes. I think they're very delicious. You probably bought them because you like the food here, right? So I thought that if I learned it, I could make it for you…"
"Humph! Who cared! I got this from Sister Huo. I love it, but you don't have to cook it! If you want to eat it, I can go find Sister Huo!”
"..." Xue Tian didn't know what to say. He had spent so much effort, but the other party didn't appreciate it. He was a little disappointed. Xue Tian sighed and began to clean up.
"Hey, you…Aren't you going out to play?”Tu Muyao felt that she had gone a little overboard and softened her tone.
"Uh, aren't you afraid to go out so late at night?”Tu Muyao was famous for being afraid of the dark. Xue Tian could tell from the way the two of them met. Xue Tian had even taken the blame for her fear of the dark. How could he not remember it?
"No, there's a night market at night, and the sun hasn't set yet, right? The downtown area wouldn't be closed! Let's go! Didn't we agree to go out?!" Xue Tian smiled and put the things away. She took the silver and the two of them headed towards the downtown area.
Today was the Lantern Festival, so it was very lively everywhere. No wonder Tu Muyao wanted to go out and play so much. It was easy to miss home during the festival. Although she didn't say it, she really wanted to go back. However, due to many reasons, she couldn't go back. Therefore, she used this to relieve her inner feelings. Xue Tian was also very excited. She had never celebrated such a festival when she was living in the mountains. She had been very busy during the years of cultivation and had no time to pay attention to such events. If Tu Muyao hadn't insisted, she probably wouldn't have known about the existence of such a festival.
"Xuetian, Xuetian, do you think that red goldfish lamp looks good?”Tu Muyao pointed at a red lantern and smiled happily.
"Yes, I think the lotus flower next to it looks good too!”
"You don't understand, do you? That lotus flower is used to be placed in the river. It can be used to carry your wishes! It's different from goldfish!"
"What about the chubby doll?”
"An ordinary lantern! "That's not a chubby baby, that's a child…" Tu Muyao felt a little helpless. After reading so many books, did she not know all this? What a…nerd!
"Oh, I see!"
In the end, one of them carried the red goldfish and the other carried the boy. They talked and laughed as they walked towards the food stall. It was almost dark, so the two of them lit the lantern. Xue Tian looked at the lantern with some curiosity, as if she was afraid that she would accidentally break it.
"Aiyo, don't be afraid. If it breaks, I'll buy you a new one! Ah!" Tu Muyao's tone sounded like a big sister, causing the surrounding people to look at the two of them with amusement. Xue Tian wasn't angry, but would occasionally look at her lantern.
The place selling snacks was really full of delicacies. All kinds of snacks were placed there. Tu Muyao's saliva almost drowned the place. She dragged Xue Tian and ran inside. Not long after, their hands were filled with all kinds of food. Xue Tian looked at the delicious food in his hand and then at Tu Muyao.""Tumu, can you eat it? Buying so many…I won't be able to bring all the good ones later!”
"Hehe, don't underestimate me!”As she spoke, she picked up the two pieces of osmanthus cake in Xue Tian's arms and swallowed them. Xue Tian was afraid that she would choke, but she looked completely fine.
Soon, the sky was completely dark. All kinds of lights around them were lit up, looking very beautiful. They bought a river lantern each, wrote a wish and put it in the river. Tu Muyao clapped her hands happily as she watched the lantern float away with the water. At this time, two very enchanting women walked over. A fragrant smell reached their noses. They turned around curiously, and Xue Tian was a little confused. Tu Muyao, on the other hand, was excited. She raised her head and saw that the other side of the river was a place called the Red Charm Tower. Tu Muyao tugged at Xue Tian and said,"Sigh, do you dare to go?"
"What do you mean?" Xue Tian was even more confused.
"Do you dare to drink wine?"
"What…what is flower wine?"
"Hehe, you'll know when you get there!”Tu Muyao pushed Xue Tian into the room. As soon as she entered, an old lady came up to her and said with a smile,""Young masters, you look unfamiliar. Are you new today? We have a lot of good girls here…Ying 'er, Que' er, come quickly, come quickly, accompany the two young masters!”
Before the two of them could say anything, they were already dragged to the upper room by a group of girls. Before they left, the old lady said,"Serve the two young masters well!"
