"Master Lin, fellow disciples, good morning." Lin Pingzhen was followed by a long queue, so Ningxia still called people by seniority in a polite manner.
"morning."
"Did I get up late? Sorry, maybe I'm lazy on weekdays, so I bother you all to wait here."
Looking at the past, there was a huge crowd of people. Although they didn't know each other, they were all wearing Wuhua School uniforms. They should all be brothers and sisters from the same sect.
Ning Xia felt a little guilty when she suddenly barged in. Dozens of pairs of eyes were staring at her, either probing or questioning, making her very suspicious that she was late and that everyone could wait here.
"Just gather at the time I told you yesterday. We just arrived." Lin Pingzhen shook her head, indicating that she was not late. He also happened to meet Junior Nephew Jiang and the others on the way and came here together.
In fact, they were not much earlier than Ningxia. They came over to Ningxia as soon as they got a firm foothold, so they didn't wait.
Ning Xia hardly knows the disciples here, and there are one or two familiar faces who don't seem to know her. Probably because she rarely moved around the sect and didn't show up much.
Lin Pingzhen briefly introduced her to everyone present. The two parties greeted each other, and they were considered acquainted.
Everyone is actually quite curious about Ningxia and accepted it very quickly. The identity of the inner disciple of Baiji Peak is the least conspicuous, but the cultivation level in front of him is very modest. It is really rare to reach the middle stage of foundation building at the age of twelve or thirteen.
Many of them may not have such cultivation despite being under the care of their master. This shows that Junior Sister Ning is very talented.
Well, in fact, Ningxia's qualifications are not outstanding. The high-purity Three Spiritual Roots can at best be compared with the lower-purity Double Spiritual Roots, and they are probably incomparable.
But it’s not as good as Ningxia’s good luck. I defeated monsters and pushed bosses along the way, and dropped upgrades. She actually got promoted by accident. In fact, he only had an embroidered pillow, and his cultivation level was barely adequate, but no one knew that this person actually only knew a few techniques from the Qi training period, and the only whip technique he was familiar with was not very good.
However, strength is paramount in the world of cultivation. Even if there is no connection behind it, Ningxia's cultivation is enough for them to take a high look. Many people were willing to communicate with her, and Ningxia also took this opportunity to get to know some new faces.
They are all disciples of high-ranking sects. Any one of them is the direct descendant of Zhenjun XX, or he is a slightly outstanding inner sect disciple. Because Ning Xia has been traveling abroad for a long time, to be honest, the interpersonal relationships in the sect are really weak. She feels that she needs to move around a bit when she goes back this time.
After all, we are from the same sect, otherwise it would be embarrassing if we met in some secret place in the future and didn't recognize him.
The group of people waited at the gathering place for a while, and other small groups who were alone also arrived one after another.
"Is everyone here? Since we all arrived early by chance, Uncle Lin, why don't we go to the venue early to have a look. I heard that there are many up-and-coming talents coming from various factions this year." A man who looked very lively Xiu suggested, eager to give it a try, obviously wanting to go and meet the elites of each sect right away.
"It seems like there are still a few people left?" someone in the team hesitated.
"But I've counted, everyone from all the peaks should be here."
"Junior Sister Wang from Huyang Peak hasn't come yet." A female cultivator said meaningfully, emphasizing the word "Junior Sister".
"Why is it her again? Although there is a time limit for gathering, we can't always come here. She is always the one we are waiting for. Elders are here, why are you so rude?" Both words imply that Wang Jingxuan does not understand etiquette.
Here it is again, the familiar recipe. It seems that every time Wang Jingxuan is involved, some people will start to become wise. Especially some female cultivators, as if they were given a shot of chicken blood, they would target an "insignificant" handyman disciple for no apparent reason.
But Ningxia may not understand this time. She underestimated Wang Jingxuan's awkward position in this sect operation, probably because of her heroine filter. Ningxia might not be too surprised by some unexpected things about the heroine.
But others don't have this filter. They will only think that Wang Jingxuan is an outlier who doesn't act according to common sense.
For example, this mirror-asking ceremony. A handyman disciple like Wang Jingxuan is not qualified to attend at all. She can't even build a foundation. How can so many elite disciples present get used to seeing a useless person parachuted in to be equal to them.
You must know that they all obtained this spot through open and covert fighting. Why does Wang Jingxuan?
Those who had heard about True Lord Qinghe before were even more wary of Wang Jingxuan, subconsciously thinking that she was a charming villain, which actually made True Lord Qinghe put aside his direct bloodline to help her.
Along the way, no one saw anything particularly different about the other party, but Wang Qingmei, who had been locked up, was more eye-catching.
Now that Wang Qingmei was locked up, everyone's eyes naturally fell on Wang Jingxuan, the "alien" in front of them.
Lin Pingzhen did not accept this provocation. He frowned, and a trace of worry flashed across his eyebrows: "Master Nephew Wang is always on time. He always comes a moment early for the meeting and has never been late. I don't know if he is encountering difficulties. "
The female cultivator's instigation and desire to incriminate someone can be said to be a slap on the horse's lap.
Yuan Guifang had made trouble with Wang Jingxuan several times, causing Wang Jingxuan a lot of trouble. Lin Ping really felt guilty for having met this girl from the same village. After going back and forth, the two of them became acquaintances.
After getting to know each other, Lin Pingzhen had a good impression of this girl from the same village. He felt that although her qualifications were not good, she was more resilient and able to endure hardships. She was a talented person and he was very willing to take care of her.
Therefore, he has a good relationship with Wang Jingxuan in private. Although it is not as good as Yuan Guifang and Ning Xia, who have grown up together, they can still be considered caring.
How could Lin Pingzhen not know about Wang Jingxuan's daily habits? This little nephew of his has never stepped on the spot, and always comes a minute early every time.
He also knew what a self-disciplined person the other party was. So it's obviously a little unusual that the other party hasn't come over yet.
Lin Pingzhen had some doubts. After thinking about it, he still felt uneasy. He was about to ask someone to go back to the hospital to take a look.
"Here we are. Finally here, let us wait..."
"What are you doing? Who do you think you are? A procrastinating person like this..."
There were whispers at the back of the team, and some people's voices were amplified, as if they were deliberately listening to someone.
Ning Xia followed everyone's gaze and found that the heroine's face was pale and haggard, as if she was seriously ill, and she was slowly walking towards the team.
What's going on? It was obviously normal to meet yesterday. Could it be that someone went to sneak attack and plot against Wang Jingxuan last night?
Thinking that someone in the team just now seemed to be deliberately setting the pace, he suddenly brought the topic to Wang Jingxuan, leading everyone to attack her. Ningxia feels... it's not impossible.
"Nephew Wang, are you feeling unwell?" Lin Pingzhen frowned and looked at Wang Jingxuan, who looked very weak.
