Time flew by, and three days passed in the blink of an eye.
Today is the day to report to the inner gate.
Lin Beichen got up early before dawn.
In his heart, he was extremely curious and longing for the mysterious inner door.
After all, there is a saying in the Xuanyuan Sect: Only one who has entered the inner sect can be considered a true disciple of the Xuanyuan Sect.
Although he had almost been admitted to the inner gate before when his Dantian was still intact, it was only a close call.
Moreover, he also has the entrustment of Jiujianxian, a senior he respects very much.
Not only is he top-notch in strength, but more importantly, he also has the same personality as Lin Beichen, that is, he is not stuck in small details and is unwilling to be trapped in the rules of the world. They both have the same yearning, which is freedom.
Moreover, he still has the token of the purple-robed old man from the Alchemist Guild.
No matter what, he had to go to the inner gate.
After suppressing his excitement, he carefully tidied up the house. After all, he had lived here for more than a month and had some feelings for it.
After cleaning up, the sun had fully risen, so he walked to Ye Lingxi's small courtyard next door.
It's really strange. This little girl is so lively on weekdays, why is there no movement today?
Logically speaking, this little girl should be more excited than him today...
"Xi'er, wake up!" Lin Beichen stood at the door and shouted helplessly.
No one answered.
"Xi'er!" Lin Beichen shouted again, this time the volume was much louder.
But still no one answered.
"Well...this little girl shouldn't have the habit of sleeping naked..." Lin Beichen had a strange look on his face.
He was really afraid that when he opened the door, he would find Ye Lingxi lying naked on the bed and sleeping in.
After training in several places, he got the title of 'pervert'. He was really scared...
Xuanyuan Sect is also the only place where he does not have the title of pervert, but he cannot destroy this pure land...
After hesitating for a moment, he had an idea, closed his eyes tightly and pushed open the door.
"Creak..."
The wooden door was gently pushed open.
A fragrance unique to a girl's boudoir was inhaled by Lin Beichen's nose.
"Xi'er?" Lin Beichen called tentatively.
Still no answer.
Lin Beichen suddenly opened his eyes. He couldn't control much anymore. If he didn't go, he would miss the elder's reception.
But he was dumbfounded the next second. The entire room was empty at the moment. The usual furniture, items, and even clothes showed no signs of being moved, but the bedding on the bed was a little messy.
Lin Beichen quickly reached out and touched it.
There is still residual heat...
There was still residual heat in the quilt, which meant that Ye Lingxi had not been away for long.
"Did this little girl go directly by herself without waiting for me?" Lin Beichen couldn't help but feel a little doubt in his heart.
But he didn't have time to think too much. He hurriedly closed the door and ran towards the inner door.
...........
At the entrance to the inner gate of Xuanyuan Sect.
There was an old man in yellow robe and eight young figures.
This old man is the elder who is responsible for guiding them, and the eight young figures are naturally the outer sect disciples who successfully won the inner sect selection competition a few days ago.
Oh no, he should be considered an inner disciple at this moment.
The old man in yellow robe said solemnly: "The reception time is coming soon, have any of you seen Lin Beichen and Ye Lingxi?"
As soon as these words came out, the eight young figures suddenly looked at each other, and then they all shook their heads slowly.
The old man in yellow robe looked at the sun in the sky, his brows suddenly furrowed, and he felt inexplicably irritable and said: "The time has come, and they won't wait for them. People who have no sense of time also need to pay the price for their actions. They missed this moment." After receiving the invitation, let them wait for the next session."
The eight young figures suddenly fell silent, feeling sorry for Lin Beichen and the two of them.
"Elder, why don't we wait for them." A swarthy strong man among the eight figures said cautiously.
After the yellow-robed old man glared at him, he no longer hesitated and pinched the magic formula in his hand. After a while, a spirit crane flew out from the inner door.
"Let's go, we won't wait for them." The elder in yellow robe said calmly, and then took the lead and jumped onto the spiritual crane in mid-air.
Eight young figures followed suit and jumped onto the back of the crane.
But just when the elder Huangpao was using the seal to control the flying crane, there was a faint cry of anxiety.
"Wait for me, I haven't gone up yet!"
Everyone suddenly looked sideways and saw Lin Beichen running towards him from a distance.
"Hmph!" Huangpao elder snorted coldly, without stopping at all to seal the seal in his hand.
The next second, Linghe spread his wings and flew towards the inner door as if under control.
"Damn it, I haven't gotten in the car yet, wait for me." Lin Beichen cursed secretly. He naturally saw that the crane had no intention of stopping and waiting for him.
After hesitating for a moment, he gritted his teeth, and with a thought, crystal blue wings flashed out.
"Tch, I can fly before you pull me down. Don't even think about leaving me behind!" Lin Beichen smiled proudly, then the aura behind him kept fluctuating, his wings fluttered, and he chased after Linghe.
Immediately afterwards, a scene of a man cursing and chasing a crane appeared in the sky.
In this way, the flight lasted about an hour.
In the distant sky, a small black dot appeared. As time went by, the small black dot became larger and larger.
Until a huge palace appeared in front of several people.
"Hmph, there are restrictions on the entrance to the inner door later. I don't see how you can get in without the guidance of the spirit crane!" The old man in yellow robe snorted coldly.
The young figure behind them chased them for almost an hour. Although the crystal blue wings behind this guy were very attractive, it made him very unhappy!
How dare you steal his elder's limelight?
Can't tell the difference between big and small kings?
"Don't even think about getting rid of me!" Lin Beichen shouted. The Tianyan Dao Jing was operating at its peak at this moment, pouring continuously towards his back.
In an instant, his speed increased exponentially.
In the next second, he chased the crane and drove side by side with it. Then he flapped his wings, changed direction, jumped onto the back of the crane, and finally saw a few people.
Lin Beichen's arrival immediately attracted the attention of several people, who all looked at him.
"Huh...huh...huh..."
"Finally... caught up..."
Lin Beichen didn't bother to greet them. He bent his body, pressed his arms to his knees, and breathed heavily.
After a while, Lin Beichen finally regained his breath.
"Elder, I'm really sorry. I was delayed on something." Lin Beichen scratched his head and apologized sheepishly.
"Hmph!" Elder Huangpao said coldly, but didn't say anything.
Lin Beichen was late, which made him feel that his status as an elder was underestimated by these people, which made him very unhappy.
Although he could not let Lin Beichen go up to pick up Linghe within the rules, Lin Beichen had caught up with Linghe by his own ability at this moment. He could not say anything more and could only express his dissatisfaction with a cold snort.
Seeing this, Lin Beichen pinched his nose, turned around awkwardly, and greeted several young figures who were also winners like him.
"You guy, you are really speechless. If you didn't catch up, I wonder if you would regret it." Ji Ruxue, who had fought with Lin Beichen, glanced sideways at Lin Beichen and curled her lips.
"Haha, I'm coming up right now!" Lin Beichen smiled proudly and felt happy in his heart.
If it weren't for the Spirit Wing Art, I'm afraid he would really miss this reception.
"Huh? Why isn't Xi'er here?" Lin Beichen glanced around, thinking that Ye Lingxi had arrived early, but he didn't see her figure at this time.
"Are you looking for that Ye Lingxi?" Ji Ruxue said calmly, "She is late, just like you."
"Huh? How is that possible? I was almost late because I was looking for her. She was not in the yard. I thought she had been here long ago." Lin Beichen asked doubtfully. "Then I don't know. She never showed up anyway." Ji Ruxue shook her head.
Lin Beichen couldn't help but feel a little uneasy in his heart at this moment, and he suddenly thought of Ye Lingxi's strange behavior during this period, combined with today's lateness...
But without giving him any time to think, the Linghe landed smoothly in the magnificent palace amidst the exclamations of the other people.
