Fairy sister, I am not your white moonlight

In the Fire Cloud Cave, the lowest level of cultivation for the monsters is the Nascent Soul stage. Legend has it that there are even monsters that have returned to the Void stage.

This is exactly where Long Lianxue wants to go.

"No need to look, he must be thinking so... Remember to wear that dress next time. If you are afraid of getting it dirty, I will give you a few more."

The girl in the red dress patted the girl on the shoulder, picked up the sword and walked towards the stage.

"That's it. I'm leaving first. Remember to be safe and follow him closely!"

As the most difficult and dangerous place in this trial, those who dare to go here are often the most talented disciples in the sect.

But even among this group of immortal seedlings, the red-haired girl is the most eye-catching one.

Long Lianxue held the sword to her chest, with her plump breasts holding the scabbard, and stood calmly at the front of the team.

Even though there were so many people admiring her in the audience, Senior Sister Long immediately caught Xiao Jinyun's gaze, turned around, smiled, stretched out her hand to greet him, and startled the little mute so much that he lowered his head awkwardly.

Senior Sister Long, you are indeed dazzling.

She could obviously go back and continue to be the eldest lady after the time agreed with Ye Xun was over.

But in the past two days, she was still willing to help Ye Xun, and taught Xiao Jinyun a lot of things that only girls know.

For example, no man would be nice to a girl for no reason, unless... he likes her.

The little mute stood beside Ye Xun a little nervously, not daring to think too much.

"Disciples heading to Nether Valley, gather here."

The elder holding the scroll continued to use his Qi to amplify his voice, pointing his finger at the open space on the other side.

The Nether Valley, where the monster beasts have the lowest level of Golden Core and the highest level of Nascent Soul, is the place where most disciples choose to train.

It is still dangerous for Xiao Jinyun now because she is only at the foundation building stage.

Soon, most of the disciples gathered around the elder like a tide, and soon only a few were left behind Ye Xun and Xiao Jinyun.

The little mute breathed a sigh of relief because she was not the only one left on the field.

The last remaining trial location was the monster forest near the sect. The highest monster there was only at the Golden Core stage, and most of them were just weak monsters at the Foundation Establishment stage.

It turns out that so many senior brothers and sisters would choose to train here... At least, it's not too embarrassing.

Xiao Jinyun had just breathed a sigh of relief when he suddenly saw the few remaining brothers and sisters around him go on stage after greeting the elders.

They are all disciples who are about to break through. They came here just to sign in and will go back to seclusion after the trial. They will not participate in this trial.

Therefore, the only ones who actually went to the Monster Forest for the trial were her... and Ye Xun.

Even though he had anticipated this, the contemptuous and mocking looks from the other disciples were still like sharp knives, piercing the hem of Xiao Jinyun's Taoist robe that he was holding tightly.

Xiao Jinyun wished that she was the only one being laughed at, but the current situation made her feel even more uncomfortable.

"Don't be nervous. In this monster hunting, in addition to the monster's strength, the number is also one of the criteria for the final ranking."

Ye Xun did not leave, his figure remained straight, just holding Xiao Jinyun's little hand.

"No matter what they say or how they see it, we just need to do our best as long as we have a clear conscience."

The little mute was stunned for a moment, looked at Ye Xun's calm profile, opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something.

Although she still couldn't make a sound, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, revealing a reassuring smile.

Ye Xun was right, all I had to do was work hard with him.

Compared to the pointing and criticizing of ordinary disciples, the whispered sarcasm of the immortal seedlings beside Long Lianxue was actually more harsh.

"It turns out there really is an inner sect disciple at the foundation-building stage. Is this the mute who got into the inner sect by being an assistant to an outer sect member?"

"What is she doing here? Is she here to embarrass herself? Instead of going to the forest next to the sect to hunt monsters, she might as well go to the river at Lingxu Peak to catch some shrimps for fun. I remember that Elder Lingxu often vomited there after drinking. If the river shrimps have eaten the elder's filth, they can also be considered monsters."

"Ye Xun's taste is really unique. Even a country bumpkin like him can do that."

There was only the sound of the scabbard rubbing against each other.

Long Lianxue raised her arms a little, and the half-broken sword in her arms was squeezed out of the sheath by her plump flesh, reflecting her equally cold face, and the sarcastic voices suddenly stopped.

She had long regarded Ye Xun as an important friend and Xiao Jinyun as a sister, so it was natural that she would not allow anyone to speak ill of them.

At this moment, a deacon ran to the elder holding the scroll and whispered something.

The elder looked at the visitor strangely, then nodded.

Ye Xun frowned instantly. He could feel that the situation had changed a little, which might affect his plan to resolve the little mute's knot.

"Because we need to protect the population of monsters near the sect, the final location of this trial has been changed to the Starfall Ground."

The elder holding the scroll sighed helplessly and motioned Ye Xun and Xiao Jinyun in the audience to come up.

The Starfall Site was originally just an ordinary jungle, but after a meteor fell not long ago, an underground ruin was discovered there.

There are not many local monsters, and their strength is not too weak. It would be difficult to win by relying on numbers.

Most importantly, the dangers there are unknown, and the opportunities are also unknown.

Chapter 49: She tried her best to assist

The carriage had been traveling for a whole day and night, and Ye Xun looked at the tiles that the elder had given him.

It is said that it was unearthed from the ruins of a star-falling site, and has a familiar pattern engraved on it.

He turned around and looked at Xiao Jinyun who was sleeping against him.

It is very similar to the line on the girl's forehead, but the one on Xiao Jinyun has been covered up by Ye Xun using Moon Marrow.

Although it is temporarily impossible to rely on hunting monsters, obtaining rankings, and rebuilding the little mute's confidence, but if he can get information about Xiao Jinyun's bloodline here, it may not be a way to untie the knot in his heart.

The mission given to them by the Liuying Sect on this trip was just to explore the ruins beneath the Falling Star Ground, and then try to bring back some first-hand information to pave the way for the next formal exploration by the Liuying Sect.

Obviously, they don't know much about the truth about the ruins, so they are being used as cheap spies.

After all, Xiao Jinyun is just a foundation-building disciple, and Ye Xun is just an outsider.

It would be great if we could bring back information. Even if something happened in the unknown Starfall Land, the Liuying Sect would not suffer any loss.

Even though Liuying Sect gave them the jade token and promised to rescue them at any time, if they really encountered a crisis that would cause them to get into trouble, Ye Xun and his companions would most likely be abandoned at any time.

Everything should have gone as planned by the Liuying Sect's upper echelons, but the eldest daughter of the Long family insisted on coming, and everything became a little different.

Ye Xun put away the tile, opened the curtain in front of the carriage, and said to Long Lianxue who was driving the carriage.

"I'll drive the car, you go and rest."

Her grandfather was the supreme elder, and she herself was the eldest daughter of the Long family. Long Lianxue was the treasure of the Liuying Sect.

With her joining, the abandoned team that originally consisted of only Ye Xun and Xiao Jinyun now had an entire convoy following behind them.

Most of them were immortal seedlings who had originally planned to go to the Fire Cloud Cave. They saw that Long Lianxue decided to run to the Falling Star Land halfway through, and thought that she had some exclusive information, so they didn't want to suffer any loss, so they hurriedly followed.

Perhaps the top leaders of Liuying Sect themselves had not anticipated this, so they had to give everyone a hand-drawn map of the ruins to prevent too many of their important inner disciples from suffering casualties.

In this way, Ye Xun also got a map.

"Huh? Don't worry about me. Just rest with her for a while... Don't bully her. That child can't talk. You can't stop her."

Long Lianxue was yawning. When she turned around and saw Ye Xun coming out, she quickly sat up straight and secretly glanced back.

She followed here just to prevent Ye Xun and the little mute from being treated as abandoned. After experiencing the incident with Chang Dong, the eldest daughter of the Long family actually became more cautious.

The sect may not be as harmonious as she thought.

In other words, they are quite friendly towards Long Lianxue because she has a grandfather who is a supreme elder. Although he is retired and no longer in charge of things, he still has some status.

But the same may not be true for others, such as the little mute who was bullied before meeting Ye Xun.

“Watch the road and don’t be distracted.”

Just as Long Lianxue was daydreaming, the carriage suddenly ran over a rock and the entire carriage began to shake.

Fortunately, Ye Xun grabbed the reins in time and did not fall over.

"You've been driving for too long. Go in and take a rest."

Ye Xun sat next to Long Lianxue and picked up the reins.

The red-haired girl stared at him blankly for a long time before she sighed, nodded, and returned to the carriage.

She originally wanted to give Ye Xun and Xiao Jinyun more space to be alone, but now she was too tired after driving for a whole day and night.

However, I think I have done my best.

Inside the carriage, the little mute who was awakened by the jolt grabbed Ye Xun's Taoist robe in a daze, sniffed and rubbed it habitually, which made Senior Sister Long smile.

…………

After several days of trekking, Ye Xun and his party finally arrived at the place where the stars fell.

A dense forest, a small open space in the middle, and a huge meteorite crater.

There wasn't even a single monster, which seemed a little suspicious.

"Where are the ruins you were promised? What did the sect intelligence say?"

The person who spoke was He Wenbin, who was in the late Nascent Soul stage and one of the immortal seedlings who originally planned to go to Huoyun Cave.

In addition to him, there are several other inner disciples whose strengths vary, and they are all around the Nascent Soul stage.

As such, Long Lianxue, who was in the Spirit Transformation Stage, naturally became the team leader this time.

"Ye Xun, what do you think?"

And she would naturally ask Ye Xun, whom she trusted.

Long Lianxue took a look at the surrounding environment and was obviously a little confused.

The ruins must exist because someone has risked his life to bring tiles out of them.

Unfortunately, the man soon died of his injuries, and Ye Xun could only rely on himself to find a way out.

Xiao Jinyun still didn't dare to look up in front of others, but just followed Ye Xun closely.

Her heart knot had not been completely untied, so it was natural that she couldn't speak.

If he could untie his knot in his heart, with the little mute's talent and bloodline, he would be destined to transform into a fairy who was not inferior to, or even better than, Long Lianxue.

And Ye Xun had a vague feeling that the opportunity for change might be in this place where stars fell, in those ruins.

Therefore, he had to seize this opportunity not for the mission of Liuying Sect, but for Xiao Jinyun and for himself.

Ye Xun pondered for a moment, stepped on the long sword and rose into the air, observing the terrain of this star-falling land from above.

With the pit as the center, the surrounding area within a few feet was covered with traces of burning fire, forming a small vacuum zone.

But at the junction of the vacuum zone and the jungle, Ye Xun used his spiritual sense to detect several unique trees.

It's a formation.

He frowned, and suddenly some enlightenment came to his mind.

Thanks to the generous teaching that night during the drinking party, Ye Xun gradually began to understand other formations besides the Immortal Trapping Formation.

Although he is not able to surpass Du Xiuming himself, he is still much stronger than many ordinary cultivators who specialize in formations.

On the ground, He Wenbin was approaching the pit where the meteorite fell. He believed that the legendary ruins were in the pit and he only needed to dig a little...

He had explored many ruins before and knew how important it was to gain the upper hand.

Just when He Wenbin was digging the soil with all his might, he heard the sound of arrows breaking through the air. Looking up, he saw Ye Xun drawing the bow and arrow, with burning stripes on his shoulders.

"Damn it, are you crazy? What if the surrounding woods are set on fire?"

He Wenbin stared at the "madman" in the sky in disbelief, but Ye Xun ignored him and continued to draw his bow and shoot arrows, setting the trees on fire and burning them in order.

"Stop it, me!"

Just as He Wenbin was about to fly into the sky with his sword to stop it, he suddenly heard a noise behind him.

A downward entrance slowly opened between the star craters.

He turned around, looked at the entrance, swallowed, and looked at the map in his hand.

He actually opened it?

"This is not an entrance, it's just an altar."

Ye Xun knew that the formation was not over yet, so he opened his mouth to remind him in mid-air, but He Wenbin didn't even listen and jumped straight into the cave.
