In the Saintess's Palace, dozens of people followed behind Yan Fanxin, the head of the Enchantress Sect. Everyone was talking and laughing along the way. Before they came out, they had all turned in the Golden Sun Grass that they had picked, but most of them had only handed in two portions. If there were any extra spirit plants, the Beauty Sect would not hesitate to buy them at 30% above the market price.
Moreover, the exchange wasn't only done with spirit stones, but also with special pills or spirit weapons. When a cultivator mentioned that he wanted a Foundation Establishment Stage female cultivator from the Beauty Sect to be his Dao Companion, Sect Master Yan Fanxin merely crossed off his name from the list of candidates for the Marriage Selection Banquet. Then, she instructed the female attendants around her to bring people to choose.
Everything that didn't make sense in the outside world became reasonable because of the Golden Sun Grass. This made Yi Tian even more certain that the Yuanying cultivators of the Enchantress Sect were in desperate need of the Golden Sun Grass. But why didn't they enter the Sumeru Space to find the spirit plants themselves?
This time, not all of the cultivators who went in came out unscathed. At the very least, some of the rogue cultivators from the aristocratic families looked tired. As for Dugu Ao, after he came out and turned in the Golden Sun Grass, he said that he would withdraw from the Selection Banquet.
After Yan Fanxin asked about the actual situation, she found the Xing brothers. Both sides had no choice but to accept the truth. This time, Dugu Ao pretended to be distressed on the surface, but in private, he gave Yi Tian a look that indicated that he had succeeded.
Xing Lin, on the other hand, was only able to pass because of his brother's help and become the first disciple of the three sects to be selected.
Then, when the rogue cultivators saw that their only competitor, Dugu Ao, had withdrawn, they stopped pretending and came forward to say that they wanted to enter the next round.
Originally, Yi Tian also wanted to withdraw, but when he saw Yan Zhaoxue riding the White Tiger in front of him, he hesitated. However, he did not open his mouth to say that he wanted to withdraw.
At this time, Hong Luanxin, who was the head of the female attendants, quietly walked to the side and said, "Wait a moment, the young master wants to see you. Please come with me."
Yi Tian had no choice but to inform Yin Jie and the others to leave first. He lied that he still had something to do. The latter was only stunned for a moment, but when she saw Yi Tian pointing at the waitress next to him, she didn't ask any more questions. She just replied, "Be careful." Then she followed the group into the back of the hall.
After a while, Yi Tian followed Hong Luanxin into a side hall. The entire hall seemed to be surrounded by a barrier. After Hong Luanxin sent him off, she said, "Wait here. Young Master will be here soon."
Yi Tian turned around and replied, "Mm." Then, he found a seat and sat down to wait. Actually, he was a little puzzled as to why Yan Zhaoxue would ask for a meeting at this time. Although it would be easy for people to talk about him if he left halfway, it would be troublesome if people found out that the two of them were secretly communicating.
However, Yi Tian couldn't do anything about this young lady's temper. He could only smile bitterly and helplessly.
Not long after, he saw Yan Zhaoxue, who was dressed as a woman, quietly open the door and then quickly sneak in. After seeing Yi Tian, she didn't hold back and directly said, "How was it? Did you get a lot of benefits in the Sumeru Space? I heard you took out three stalks of Golden Sun Grass."
Yi Tian shook his head and said, "The time I spent here was too short. If I had more time, I could have done a lot more things." Halfway through his words, he suddenly felt that the ball of Xuanyang Primordial Fire in his body seemed to be attracted by the Sunflower Primordial Fire on Yan Zhaoxue's body. It circled around his Dantian and then calmed down under the suppression of the seal.
He looked up at Yan Zhaoxue and saw her mischievous smile. He knew that it was her doing, but he didn't know how the True Fire in his body was stirred up by this little girl.
It wasn't good to ask in front of her, so he directly said, "I'll help you get rid of Dugu Ao. There won't be any powerful cultivators in the next banquet."
Yan Zhaoxue smiled and asked, "What about Gu Shidu? I heard he's a master of the central continent. Why didn't he come out? Did you do it? "
"This person is too strong, he probably came out early after gathering enough 'Golden Sun Grass'." Yi Tian's heart couldn't help but tremble. The matter of killing Gu Shi Dou had to be buried in his stomach, especially this person in front of him, he couldn't even mention it.
Who knew that Yan Zhaoxue understood and said, "Gu Shidu is the strongest person this time. He will definitely make full use of the geographical advantage. As for why he didn't come out, I believe only the people who went in know the best."
Seeing that she was intentionally leading the topic to this, Yi Tian hurriedly interrupted, "I've basically done what I've helped you with. Next, you just need to set up a few difficult problems and wait until those cultivators can't solve them. Then, wouldn't your goal of this marriage banquet be achieved?"
Yan Zhaoxue nodded and said, "I hope you have to participate in the third obstacle."
"Why?" Yi Tian didn't understand and asked.
"Isn't it because you're cultivating my Cha Nu Sect's secret technique, the 'Cha Nu True Fire'? Now the entire West Wasteland knows about this. If you don't participate, I believe that as long as the Sect Leader says something, it will be very difficult for you to return to the Immortal Sword Sect alive."
Yi Tian, who originally wanted to argue, felt discouraged. He still had this weakness that was being used. Although it wasn't said, but if he didn't handle it properly, he believed that the Yuanying cultivators of the Immortal Sword Sect would not stick out for him.
Then he heard Yan Zhaoxue say, "The third obstacle is very simple. I just need all the Jin Dan cultivators to find me among the 20 palace maids. When the time comes, we will wear a veil to isolate our divine sense. Also, the selected people will have a similar figure to me. Even if they are not selected, they can still propose marriage to the Sect Leader."
This third obstacle was a bit like choosing a wife. Regardless of whether they were selected or not, they would still have a chance to win the beauty. But for Yi Tian, this was undoubtedly a disaster. Even if he didn't choose Yan Zhaoxue, he still had to think of a way to evade the Sect Leader. There was actually such a good thing in this world. He was used to being alone. If he had to bring another person along, it would be troublesome.
After thinking about it, he opened his mouth and said, "I don't want to participate in this third obstacle. In any case, I've already helped you with what I promised you. You don't have to force me."
"As long as you choose me, then I will help you with the matter of you secretly learning my Cha Nu Sect's secret technique. On the contrary, if you don't choose me, then not only will I not help you, I will also ask the Sect Leader to settle accounts with you."
Under such coercion, Yi Tian was at his wit's end. If he agreed, he would die. If he didn't, then he would die without a doubt. He turned his head and asked, "If I choose you, how will you help me get out of this matter?"
"You can rest assured. Right now, other than me, do you have any other way?" Yan Zhaoxue proudly replied.
"Then how will I be able to find you among the 20 people? You must know that with so many people, I am not sure. "
"Rest assured, I will give you the secret signal. You will not choose the wrong one."
