Although there was no explicit prohibition, after the disciples of the Flowing Cloud Sect heard the elders' earnest advice about the disadvantages of swallowing elixirs to increase their cultivation base, they were exceptionally well-behaved and diligent in their cultivation. They wanted to increase their cultivation base and state of mind at the same time, so that their cultivation base and state of mind would not fall short due to an unstable state of mind during the Thunder Tribulation.
At that time, Yun Xiu had been praised like a flower by Qian Ze for reaching the Zhuji Stage in less than twenty years. Yun Xiu even said in front of everyone that the reason why he could reach the Zhuji Stage so quickly was entirely because he had endured hardships all day long. However, now that Jiujiu directly pointed out that Yun Xiu didn't cultivate honestly, but swallowed medicinal pills to increase his cultivation, the eyes of everyone looking at Yun Xiu instantly changed from the previous admiration to thick disdain.
If you said that Zhuji Stage or Yuanying Stage swallowed medicinal pills, everyone could understand, but you started to swallow medicinal pills as soon as you started to cultivate. Moreover, you clearly swallowed medicinal pills to reach the Zhuji Stage, but you kept pretending to be a b * stard and said that you cultivated bitterly to reach the Zhuji Stage.
It was fine if everyone didn't know about this matter, but after knowing, the way they looked at Yun Xiu instantly became strange. Even if they didn't say anything at that time, in their hearts, they labeled Yun Xiu as someone with an unstable temperament who liked to boast.
Yun Xiu originally felt that he had snatched away Chang Yuan's karmic luck and that he was the male lead. Moreover, because he had swallowed pills to increase his cultivation, it gave him confidence. Thus, he had a cold and indifferent attitude towards ordinary disciples.
However, the path of cultivation was long, and the person who accompanied you the longest was not your master who could ascend at any time, nor was it those sect elders, but the senior and junior brothers who entered the sect with you.
In the past, Yun Xiu was arrogant, and everyone just felt that geniuses should be like this. However, now that Jiujiu said that he wasn't a genius, but that he swallowed medicinal pills to increase his cultivation, he instantly lost the qualifications to be arrogant.
In the past, everyone faintly had the trend of Yun Xiu being the leader, but since Jiujiu said that his cultivation was from eating medicinal pills, everyone began to prepare to go back and draw a clear line with Yun Xiu.
As for the performance of those senior and junior brothers, Yun Xiu didn't care at all.
In Yun Xiu's eyes, he snatched Chang Yuan's spirit root and snatched Chang Yuan's luck, so he was the male lead. These people were said to be his senior and junior brothers, but to put it bluntly, they were a group of insignificant people. After he ascended, how would he remember what this group of people looked like?
Thus, even though he was despised by everyone, Yun Xiu still looked at Jiujiu and said, "Elder, it is difficult for two fists to fight against four hands. One more person means one more portion of strength."
Just now, when they found out that Yun Xiu had obtained his cultivation by eating medicinal pills, the senior and junior brothers already felt that there was something wrong with Yun Xiu's thinking. At this moment, after hearing Yun Xiu's words, they all had an expression of 'could he have lost his mind'.
Who was Jiu?
Jiujiu was a genius among geniuses who had reached the Divine Transformation Realm in a thousand years.
To say who was most likely to ascend next, other than Jiujiu, they didn't think of anyone else.
Although the Ghost King in the room might be difficult for them to deal with, to Jiujiu, the Ghost King was simply an existence that came to deliver food. Yun Xiu actually told Jiujiu that two fists are four hands.
The senior and junior brothers: Meow meow meow ~
Shui Yue didn't have any memories of this Ghost King. The reason why she called Chang Yuan to go with her was that although Chang Yuan was only at Qi Disciple Level 8, because he had five spirit roots and was a sword cultivator, his current strength was comparable to a Foundation Establishment Level 5 cultivator.
Moreover, Jiujiu felt that the Ghost King was a very good opponent. It couldn't be better to use it for Chang Yuan to practice.
However, Jiujiu knew that Yun Xiu didn't understand human language, but she didn't think that he didn't understand human language to this extent.
Previously, he said that he wanted to help her, but after she refused, he actually said that two fists are four hands.
Jiujiu looked at Yun Xiu as if she was looking at an idiot, and said in a disdainful tone, "Did the pill make you stupid? If I can't deal with it, what can you do? Add food to the Ghost King? "
It must be known that the Ghost King wasn't a cultivator who relied on bitter cultivation to increase their cultivation. Swallowing cultivators to increase their own cultivation was not uncommon.
Of course, those powerful Ghost Kings didn't dare to provoke them, but eating one or two small cultivators was fine.
When Jiujiu said this, the senior and junior brothers who had been standing at the side instantly burst out laughing, and their gazes towards Yun Xiu also carried a bit of ridicule.
They felt that Yun Xiu was really like what Jiujiu said, the pill made him stupid. Not to mention that Jiujiu was now a Soul Formation cultivator, Yun Xiu was just a person who relied on swallowing pills to reach Foundation Establishment. What could he do if he went?
Wasn't it just like what Jiujiu said, adding food to the Ghost King?
The laughter of the senior and junior brothers made Yun Xiu instantly recall the time when he was ridiculed in the past. Yun Xiu and Bai Jing's faces instantly flushed red, and their eyes rolled around in their eye sockets. After a moment, they turned their heads and left.
Looking at Yun Xiu's unwilling back view, Jiujiu pursed her lips, and indicated that Chang He, who had the highest cultivation among the group of disciples, should bring the other junior brothers back first.
Chang He knew that they wouldn't be of much help even if they went, so he obediently agreed and left with his senior and junior brothers.
And the mayor also left with Chang He and the others.
The mayor really wanted to follow Jiujiu to the ancestral hall to see if his grandchildren were doing well.
When he thought that his grandchildren hadn't eaten anything since last night, the mayor's heart turned cold.
The children were still young. What if they starved to death?
Jiujiu, who didn't understand the mayor's mood at all, took out the meat buns she made from her storage bracelet and gave one each to Chang Yuan. They ate as they pushed open the door of the ancestral hall.
The two held the buns in their hands and ate as they walked. Coupled with their leisurely and comfortable expressions, they didn't look like they were here to collect ghosts. Instead, they looked like they were here for an outing.
Jiujiu pushed open the door of the ancestral hall and walked in with Chang Yuan. With a bang, the door of the ancestral hall suddenly closed, and all the candles in the originally dark ancestral hall instantly lit up.
However, the light of ordinary candles was yellow on the outside and orange on the inside, giving people a warm and comfortable feeling. But at this moment, the flames on the candles were all flickering with a faint blue, making the ancestral hall brighter and at the same time giving people a gloomy and terrifying feeling.
From the fact that the candles burned for half a day without a single tear, it could be seen that the flames weren't the original flames of the candles, but ghost flames.
Just as Jiujiu was thinking about whether she should get a night pearl to light up the ancestral hall, and Chang Yuan was thinking about whether he should draw his sword, a person suddenly appeared in the center of the originally empty ancestral hall.
Oh, it should be Ghost King Cao Jue.
Cao Jue was wearing a festive red robe, and as she swung her sleeves, she began to sing.
