Chapter 1325: You Should Be Honored!
After Ning Shu received the storyline, she felt a little hungry. When she saw that everyone else around her was eating, she became even more hungry.
“For you to eat.” A fried meat pie was offered to Ning Shu. She turned around to find that a little boy was holding a small meat pie in his hand.
Ning Shu accepted the meat pie, thanked him, and started eating.
It tasted very good. The flavor of the meat overflowed in her mouth with every bite.
“Isn’t it delicious? My mom made it for me,” said the little boy as he walked over. “I’m Qiu Mu, what’s your name? Oh, and thank you for saving me just now.”
“No problem.” Ning Shu looked at Qiu Mu. “You’re so young. Your family’s not worried about you being here alone?”
“Of course they’re worried. But my dad said that I have a lot of potential, so the earlier I join Immortal Sect, the better.” Qiu Mu looked a little indignant. “If I had known that it’d be so dangerous, I wouldn’t have come no matter what.”
“How good is your potential?” asked Ning Shu.
“My dad tested it for me. I have the spiritual root with the strongest attacking power, the metal spiritual root. It’s also a single spiritual root.” Qiu Mu raised his chin slightly, looking very proud of himself.
The fewer spiritual roots one had, the higher their potential. In addition, those with less spiritual roots could cultivate faster than those with more spiritual roots. As long as they didn’t die early, they would become a force to be reckoned with in the future.
Talents like Qiu Mu would be highly sought-after in Immortal Sect.
Originally, Ning Shu wanted to practice the Unsurpassable Martial Arts, but since she was being watched, she decided against it.
Actually, Ning Shu didn’t want to join Immortal Sect, much less steal some Xuanyang Sword. It would be easy for people to find out that she possessed demonic energy when the seal acted up.
This seal was meant to suppress her demonic bloodline and the demonic energy in her body, but since demonic energy couldn’t be suppressed all the time, the seal would occasionally cause seizures.
This was simply too unjust. Xiao Susu had a little bit of demonic energy, but she didn’t have the innate abilities of a demon so she couldn’t drain a cultivator’s lifeforce like the rest of the demon race.
Ning Shu leaned against the tree trunk and Qiu Mu leaned against her. Ning Shu glanced at Qiu Mu and he immediately straightened his back, saying, “This young master leaned on you because he thinks highly of you.”
Ning Shu：-_-!
Scram, you brat.
Ning Shu ignored him. She closed her eyes and leaned against the tree trunk to rest. As her heart calmed down, the feeling that she was being watched intensified. Fortunately, she had been cautious earlier and didn’t take out the fasting pills to eat or practice the Unsurpassable Martial Arts.
As long as she was under Immortal Sect’s watch, she couldn’t reveal her identity, or else she would die.
Whenever humans encountered demons, they would kill them without mercy.
Although Ning Shu had her eyes closed, she was still paying attention to her surroundings.
However, the next morning came and no one encountered any danger. No dangerous animals or demonic beasts had approached them.
It was obvious that there were people protecting them. There were so many talented children here. If something actually happened to them, Immortal Sect would definitely feel distressed at the loss.
Every major cultivation sect wanted to snatch disciples with good potential.
Ning Shu opened her eyes and pushed away Qiu Mu, who had been leaning on her shoulder. Her shoulder was stained with his saliva.
Qiu Mu woke up when Ning Shu pushed him and he rubbed his eyes as he asked, “What happened?”
The others also woke up one after another and yawned. Lord Qing Hua and the youth with the big sword strapped to his back came over.
The youth following behind Lord Qing Hua was Gong Hao, a sword cultivator at the golden core stage. He was in charge of recruiting disciples this time.
Lord Qing Hua was a powerful soul formation stage cultivator. His status in Immortal Sect was very high, so there was no need for him to oversee this kind of event. However, he was bored and came over purely for entertainment.
Afterwards, Lord Qing Hua met Yu Linger and then started the interesting life of raising a disciple.
He held his folding fan and slowly swept his gaze over everyone. Each person that he looked at straightened their backs and looked at him with respect.
His gaze swept past Ning Shu and finally stopped on Yu Linger, then a mysterious smile appeared on his face.
