Outer gate, Danfeng.

Inside the cave.

Jin Sumian was refining elixirs silently. She didn't even pass the selection in the Southern Territory. However, Pei Ling, who had taken away her elixirs, robbed her of opportunities, and even forced her to bathe with her, entered the outside world as the number one in the Southern Territory.

Door competition.

Even, in the past two days, all the outer disciples saw in the mirror on the General Service Peak that Pei Ling solved the competition that originally took ten days and ten nights to determine the top ten in just two days.

.

Lu Xuan, the leader of the Eastern Territory, built the foundation of the tunnel; Ruan Chuchu, the leader of the Western Territory, built the foundation of the humane path; Er Zhukong, the leader of the Northern Territory, built the foundation of the humane path... These three people are all famous in the outer sect.

Jin Sumian asked herself, let alone facing three at the same time, she didn't need to consider the issue of fighting, let alone three of them at the same time. She even had a slim chance of escaping.

Originally, in her mind, Pei Ling was just a shameless thief, but with her own eyes, she saw him take the position of leader of the outer sect with one sword and become a genius that the master of the supervisory hall praised repeatedly in public... Jin Sumian

I couldn't help but feel confused.

The Chongming Sect always respected the strong. Although Jin Sumian did not usually have the habit of bullying others, he was born and raised here, and many of his concepts had been infiltrated into his bones without even realizing it.

Pei Ling's performance in the outer sect competition was too strong and brutal!

Even the supervisory hall master and other high-level officials were repeatedly surprised by this, let alone Jin Sumian, who had been pampered since childhood and devoted himself to alchemy.

Previously, rumors were flying all over the outer sect, and the disciples started talking among themselves because it was Pei Ling who had taken advantage of her.

To put it bluntly, I think Pei Ling is a toad who wants to eat swan meat. A poor boy from Huaiyin Peak dares to dream of the talented female alchemist Xiuruo Xiufeng. It is simply wishful thinking!

But now, almost overnight, everyone's tone has changed.

They felt that, to put it nicely, it was because Jin Sumian had a unique insight; to put it unpleasantly, it was because he was deep in the city and saw Pei Ling's genius in advance. However, after seducing him in private, he failed to gain status. Only then did they rely on the Jin family

With powerful connections, he took the initiative to spread rumors about the romance between the two.

Want to use public opinion to force Pei Ling to submit!

This is complete nonsense!!

When Jin Sumian first heard this, she was so angry that she trembled.

She thought about Li Zhenchuan's warning at that time. She heard it inexplicably at that time, but now she understood what the real disciple meant.

Li Zhenchuan believed that she, Jin Sumian, was not worthy of Pei Ling!

That’s not true!

It's just too much bullying, too much bullying!

Pei Ling has always been the one who snatched her pills, stole her opportunities, and harassed her. When had she ever offended Pei Ling?!

Bang!

At this moment, the alchemy liquid in the alchemy furnace, which was changing gradually, suddenly changed color, and quickly emitted a sizzling sound. At the same time, a puff of black smoke was emitted. Before Jin Sumian could react, the Thousand-Faced Man Devil's Sound Alchemy Furnace

Exploded with a bang.

The furnace exploded!

A furnace full of materials turned into nothing in an instant.

Jin Sumian was startled, and then she realized that her heart was too confused. If she continued like this, no matter how many furnaces she refined, it would be impossible to refine a high-grade foundation-building pill!

Dong dong dong...

There was a knock on the alchemy room door.

She calmed down and walked over to open the door.

But on the main seat in the outside room, sitting upright, was a beautiful woman with colorful hair and beautiful appearance. She was dressed in gorgeous clothes and made up, surrounded by green beads. When she saw Jin Sumian coming out, she was slowly putting down the tea bowl in her hand.

Beside the beautiful woman, there stood a maid in simple clothes, wearing a neat bun with only a beaded flower on it. She had a mediocre appearance and a humble posture.

"Mother? Aunt Wan?" Jin Sumian was startled and then said, "Why are you here?"

His mother, Mrs. Cao, looked at Jin Sumian, smiled slightly, and said, "Sumian, I haven't seen you for a few days. You seem to be improving in your cultivation?"

"Not only do we, Miss Sumian, have higher cultivation, but we are also more beautiful in people's eyes." Before Jin Sumian could answer, the servant girl Wan Aunt said, "No wonder everyone says that Miss Sumian is the phoenix of our Jin family.

Where is the girl?"

Jin Sumian used to feel at ease with this kind of compliment, but now she feels slightly embarrassed.

People like Pei Ling are the geniuses who are truly recognized by the sect!

she……

While she was still thinking about it, she saw Mrs. Cao carefully taking out a brocade box and pushing it in front of her with a smile: "Mom has brought you something good, come take a look!"

Jin Sumian took it and opened it, and couldn't help but blurt out: "The recipe for the Pure Beauty Pill?"

"Yes, it's the Pure Beauty Pill recipe." Mrs. Cao took a sip of the spiritual tea and said with a smile, "You are now at the ninth level of qi training, and you have to start building the foundation. Mother has decided to give you a gift."

"So I asked someone to go to Wanbihai to search for this Pure Beauty Pill recipe for you."

"Although this elixir is not like the Troubleshooting Pill, which can preserve youthfulness forever, it has an effect that the Troubleshooting Pill does not have. It can make the person who takes it look more beautiful and pure."

She looked at her daughter with admiration and said, "You are young and in your prime. You don't need the beauty pill yet. With this pill, your appearance will definitely be improved!"

Jin Sumian looked at the elixir in her hand with interest. She didn't care if her appearance could be improved or something.

Her interest lies in the elixir itself. After hearing this, she said: "Thank you, mother. I will study hard and refine the Pure Beauty Pill as soon as possible. When the time comes, I can give it to my mother, Aunt Wan, my cousin... and everyone in the family!"

Mrs. Cao coaxed her with a smile and felt that the atmosphere was about the same, so she finally got down to business: "I heard from Su Tai that Pei Ling, who won the first prize in this outer sect competition, has an unusual relationship with you?"

Jin Sumian's face changed, her original smile disappeared instantly, and then she gritted her teeth and said, "I've never met him!"

Mrs. Cao frowned slightly, exchanged glances with Aunt Wan, and then said nonchalantly: "Mom, I'm just asking... By the way, you have reached the ninth level of Qi training, and you are about to prepare to enter the inner gate. And the inner gate

The assessment tasks are always decided by the Thirteen Meridians. Have you thought about which one you want to join?"

Jin Sumian was startled, why bother thinking about it?

Of course he joins my cousin’s Shi Jing lineage!

So he said: "Mom, I want to join the Shi Jing lineage, and Elder Shen has agreed to accept me as a disciple. After entering the inner sect, I can concentrate on practicing alchemy."

Mr. Cao shook his head and said seriously: "Working behind closed doors is just sitting in a well and watching the sky."

"It will indeed go much smoother if you choose Shi Jing's lineage and have your cousin's protection. But you are no longer a child. You rely on others and are protected by others. Doesn't it run counter to your original intention of pursuing the great road?"

"In this outer sect competition, you didn't even pass the Southern Territory Selection. And that Pei Ling, whose background and resources are not as good as yours, came from behind and with a humble body, counterattacked the Hundred Peaks disciples and finally won the competition.

, he has become the number one person in the outer sect now!"
