Chapter 943

Secular World Sect’s Divine Maiden

“What’s the point of having patrols in the sky and at the door when they don’t have the city barrier anymore? As if they could stop the elemental demons without it,” commented Xiaoshuai, now in his human form.

“It makes no difference to us,” Mu Yu responded, descending into a remote village of Pure Peace City. He ambled over to Chen Xi, who was holding onto a hand-sized statue of True God. “Chen Xi, what’s on your mind?”

Chen Xi jumped to her feet. “You’re back.”

“Seems you have something on your mind,” opined Mu Yu, sitting down next to Chen Xi.

Chen Xi exhaled melancholically. “You are an immortal master, right? You like True God, right?”

“Why the question?”

“Secular World Sect’s divine maiden will be visiting the city tomorrow. They’re coming to recruit children with an aptitude to cultivate, and I want to try, but I was told I can’t try out since I support True God.”

Mu Yu caressed Chen Xi’s head. “What do you think?”

“I want to become an immortal master to drive off the elemental demons. I support True God, though.”

“Don’t worry. I’ll go cheer for you tomorrow. You never know if you might get in.”

Mu Yu didn’t think it would be dangerous for Chen Xi to join Secular World Sect even if they were Third Heaven Palace’s puppet, believing a beginner child would not have much to do with the schemes.

“Okay. Thank you!”

Mu Yu smiled back. “I’ll come pick you up tomorrow.”

“I’m going to tell my parents.” Chen Xi ran off to her house.

Mu Yu transferred a formation from his fingertips to Chen Xi’s mind. “Remember: this jade piece is only to be crushed when your life is in danger. Otherwise, protect it well. Also, don’t tell anyone about it.”

Chen Xi blankly nodded.

“Why do you have to control her using Divine Soul Formation?” Xiaoshuai inquired, leaving with Mu Yu.

“She’s a kid at the end of the day; I’m worried she can’t keep a secret. If some coward finds out about it and steals it, she’ll be in trouble.”

“Are we going to go for a stroll and grab a bite?”

“And we’ll see if we can find out something on Tian Ran. I don’t think it’s common for Secular World Sect to come here to recruit, especially since they only recruit disciples once every two years and this year isn’t one of those years.”

Apparently, Secular World Sect was recruiting young girls who were five years old or a tad older to join their sect since their divine maiden recently had some success – which was vaguely defined – and elemental demons were running amok. Pure Peace City was but one among the numerous cities they were passing by.

“Divine Maiden has succeeded in cultivation. Her holy light is a blessing. Why does it sound like some brainwashing passage?” Xiaoshuai had as much food as he could carry in no time.

“I don’t know. I assume Tian Ran is the divine maiden who is supposed to be visiting, nevertheless. If she does come here, it’ll save us a trip to Secular World Sect.”

“I can’t wait for some hugs.”

“Clean the grease off your hands first!”

Mu Yu and Xiaoshuai could hear the city’s citizens, plenty of whom were men, clamouring from inside the inn they lodged early the next morning. With the way the members of Secular World Sect treated themselves as holy beings whom commoners were not worthy of feasting their eyes on, it was an understandable reaction. Even cultivators climbed onto roofs for a glimpse.

Mu Yu, who wanted to clear the air with Tian Ran, picked up Chen Xi and flew up to a roof, while Xiaoshuai generously shared a meat bun with her. Chen Xi was on cloud nine while she was eating; however, the tension kicked in once she was done.

“What’s the matter Chen Xi? Did it not taste good? Want a drumstick?” Xiaoshuai took out a greasy drumstick.

“No, Brother Xiaoshuai. I just heard the immortal masters saying Secular World Sect recruit disciples based on their appearances. D-do I look pretty?”

The whole Brother Xiaoshuai trope started when Xiaoshuai told Chen Xi he was ten years old, making him three years older than her.

Mu Yu crouched down and assured with a smile, “You do look pretty, Chen Xi. Have confidence in yourself. You understand gratitude. Those who understand gratitude are the prettiest.”

“Should I hide this statue of True God? What if they destroy it when they see it? You can’t buy them anymore.”

“No. Be yourself; don’t hide yourself. You never know if they might like you more because you have his statue,” Mu Yu suggested, referring to Tian Ran recognising her father.

“Okay.”

“Tricking kids again,” grumbled Xiaoshuai.

“Have I ever lied to you?”

“I’m not a kid.” Xiaoshuai ripped off a piece of drumstick grouchily.

Mu Yu cast his gaze over to the city doors, inwardly asked, How have you been, Tian Ran?
