Chapter 370 No. 32
Looking at the slowly unfolding scroll, the shadows of the fifteen people who were qualified to enter were slowly cast on the scroll, while the rest of the people who came to see them off seemed to have never appeared here.
"It's amazing!" Shui Lian'er exclaimed.
Jiang Liqian shook her head and chuckled. "What's the big deal? The biggest difference between the Mountain and Sea Secret Scroll and other secret realms, and the reason it's called the world's number one secret realm, is that it's not only vast and boundless, but it's also a divine artifact that connects the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and can protect the sect."
Shui Lian'er was shocked when she heard this: "Wow, is that really the case?"
The third elder who was not far away looked over sideways, surprised that there was a disciple who knew so much about the Secret Scroll of Mountains and Seas. When he saw that it was Jiang Liqian, he felt as if he understood something.
The Great Elder had mentioned to him more than once that this youngster who always loved to go to Lanxing was obviously at the age where she should be playing and making noises, but she could calm down and read those boring scriptures page by page.
It is indeed different.
Now looking at her cultivation level, she was just at the Golden Core stage before the competition, but after the competition she has reached the late Golden Core stage, becoming the most outstanding one among her peers. It really makes people have to praise her as a genius with a deep connection to the immortals.
The disciples who were selected were all the best in the competition. Faced with such a great opportunity as the Secret Scroll of Mountains and Seas, it was naturally impossible for any disciple to give it up in vain, even if there were many dangers involved.
Led by Jiang Junze, everyone followed one after another into the painting.
"Don't try to be stubborn in there. Opportunity is important, but your life is equally important, understand?" A gentle and patient voice came. Jiang Liqian, who was saying goodbye to Shui Lian'er and Qin Beiyao, was stunned. She looked in the direction of the voice and found that it was Zhao Zhang.
The young man, as gentle as jade, has clear eyebrows and eyes, and speaks in a low and soft voice, just like the breeze blowing through the stream and the willows swaying with the water.
The boy felt someone was looking at him and turned his head to look over.
"Jiang Liqian?" He paused and walked over with the little girl behind him.
"The competition was exciting and you were very good." Zhao Zhang said with a smile.
Jiang Liqian blushed at the compliment, which was so blatant and sincere. She coughed and said modestly, "No, I just...performed normally. Besides, I wasn't first, and you didn't participate in this competition..."
Zhao Zhang smiled, the wind blew past his ears, and his clothes fluttered in the wind.
"By the way, you and this..."
"This is my third junior sister, Gu An'an."
Jiang Liqian tilted his head and took a closer look at his junior sister - well, she was very cute, with big eyes and skin so white and tender that you could pinch water out of it, but she seemed a little gloomy and quiet.
Maybe... she was overthinking it.
"My junior sister is shy, but she's not a quiet person. Only when you get to know her well will she pester you. In the secret realm, if you and Junior Brother Xu encounter any trouble with her, I hope you can help. I thank you both in advance."
It was he who helped repair Jiang Liqian's bell, so there was no need for him to say this. If he could help, she would naturally not refuse.
Xu Youan unconditionally stood on the side of his senior sister, so naturally he did whatever his senior sister said.
Zhao Zhang touched Gu Anan's head and introduced Jiang Liqian, Xu Youan, Shui Lian'er and Qin Beiyao to her.
Shui Lian'er liked such a pretty little sister the most. She squatted down and stuffed a handful of candied fruit into her hands for her to eat as a snack.
Gu Anan blinked her eyes, looked down at the candied fruit in her hand, and nodded slowly.
She looked up at Shui Lian'er and said solemnly, "I will protect them, Senior Sister, don't worry."
When Shui Lian'er heard this, she was immediately amused by her serious look and couldn't help but hug her head and kiss her on the face.
Gu Anan's face suddenly turned red.
"Okay, we're going in. Lian'er, you guys can go back." Jiang Liqian took Gu An'an's hand and said goodbye to Shui Lian'er and the others.
Zhao Zhang stepped forward quickly, considered for a moment, and then somewhat awkwardly reminded Jiang Liqian, "My junior sister might be a little... special. I hope you can forgive me."
Jiang Liqian had several question marks on her head. She didn't understand what was so special about such a little girl. However, after she entered the secret realm, she understood what Zhao Zhang meant.
Gu Anan - she has extremely severe mysophobia.
"How many times has she performed the Dust Removal Technique?"
"The thirty-second one, right?" Jiang Liqian thought for a moment and said.
Xu Youan pursed his lips and added a few more branches to the pile of firewood.
They had just dealt with a five-eyed lizard that was waiting for an opportunity to eat them. A drop of the five-eyed lizard's blood accidentally splashed on the little girl. She had been performing the dust removal technique on herself since then. Fortunately, the cultivator only needed to use some magic. If it were a mortal in the mortal realm, he would probably be skinned alive.
"As a little girl, it's nothing to love cleanliness. Shen... Many senior and junior sisters in the sect love cleanliness very much. They burn incense and bathe every day, twist flowers and dye clothes, and there is fragrance wherever they go." Jiang Liqian thought it was okay.
Of course, she wouldn't admit that she looked at others, and generally thought they were okay.
Xu Youan did not agree with his senior sister on this point.
"What should she do if she's on a fiercely fought battlefield? Cast the Dust Removal Technique while hacking at the enemy? Besides..." Xu Youan glanced at his senior sister and trailed off, "What's so good about those people..."
Jiang Liqian didn't hear the latter sentence, but she heard the former one clearly. She felt that what her junior brother said made sense, but Gu Anan was still young. After they got out of here, she could let Zhao Zhang and the others teach her slowly. She thought she would be able to change a little. It wouldn't be so exaggerated.
"Boy, what bad things are you saying about me behind Senior Sister Jiang's back?!" Gu Anan rushed out of the woods angrily, glaring at Xu Youan.
Xu You didn't even bother to pretend, and rolled his eyes: "Why, you want my senior sister to tie your clothes belt for you again? Can't you tie it yourself?"
That’s right, Gu Anan has a quirk. She can’t tie her belt by herself and needs others to help her.
When she was at the top of the mountain, she had the help of her senior sisters and fellow disciples, but here only Jiang Liqian was helping her.
After dozens of dust removal techniques, the iron clothes would become loose, and Jiang Liqian would have to help her tie the belt.
Jiang Liqian thought it was nothing, but Xu Youan didn’t think so.
He hated everyone who approached his senior sister equally, especially those who kept pestering her and stealing all her attention.
What's more, Senior Sister had never tied his belt, and he hadn't either...
Anyway, hum!
Just hate it!
Jiang Liqian was convinced. Gu Anan was even younger than Xu Youan, yet they could actually quarrel, and even quarrel back and forth!
Just as he was about to tell them to stop and come over to eat the roasted sweet potatoes, there was a sudden movement under the sand where they were, as if something was trying to drill out and bury them all alive in the sand.
