5 Xin Qinyue

Spirit Advent Sect, sect master's room.

There were 11 people in black robes sitting within the wide room and opposite to them sat a very handsome middle aged man. The 11 black robed people are the grand elders of the Spirit Advent Sect and the handsome middle aged man was the sect master of the sect.

" sect master, which disciples have you thought of sending for the Five Advent sects Alliancemartial gathering." A man in the black robes asked. This man looked like he was in his thirties and he had a serious expression on his face when he asked this question to the sect master.

" Ye Chen, we are not in any hurry to select the disciples. There is still nearly one and a half year before the martial gathering, we can conduct the selection the month before the martial gathering starts." Sect master of Spirit Advent Sect said in a leisurely tone.

" But--" the elder named Ye Chen wanted to say something, but was interrupted by the sect master.

" There is no buts . Besides some disciples with more power may rise at that time."

Elder Ye Chen could only stay silent after hearing this.

It was soon going to be night.

Ling Tian was walking back and he could see the shadow of a unique valley. Ling Tian was that the Spirit Advent Sect was located in that valley.

Ling Tian, as he approached the sect a gigantic grey gate was in his vision.

" Stop right there. Who are you, identify yourself."

Ling Tian look towards the source of this voice and saw two burly men in black clothes. Ling Tian realized that the two men were the ones responsible for guarding the entrance gate of the sect. They both have cultivations of half step Mortal Core Realm. Their names were Chu Xiong and Chu Xing .The past Ling Tian was on close terms with these two guards as he had once saved Chu Xing when he was heavily injured after confronting a group of Demonic sect cultivators when Chu Xing was out of the sect on a mission. This was also how the past Ling Tian got into the outer court of the Spirit Advent Sect. Without Chu Xing's help, the past Ling Tian will never be able to enter the Spirit Advent Sect with his ridiculously low cultivation talent.

" Oh, it's you little Tian. What were you doing outside side till night time. And what's with all the blood stains on your clothes. You better give us an explanation." As soon as Chu Xiong and Chu Xing recognized Ling Tian and saw the state he was , they bombarded him with a few questions at once.

" well you see, I went to the Black Wind Forest to search for some herbs but encountered a monster beast and right when it was about to strike me, an other monster attacked the monster beast that was going to attack me. I took the chance to escape. As for the blood stains, it's from the blood of the monster beasts." Ling Tian came up with an explanation which would avoid any kind of suspicions on him. And in what Ling Tian there was some truth in it. As the saying goes ' If you add 10 percent truth with 90 percent lies, then the lie becomes more believable.'

" well, it's good that you're safe. So did you find anything useful for you?" The Chu brothers were truly glad that nothing happened to Ling Tian. Ling Tian who understood this felt warm in his heart, but Ling Tian had no idea how to talk to them as he hasn't completely fused with the masterless soul of his past self.

" Sorry, but I am a bit too tired and need some rest. So I'll talk with you guys later." With that Ling Tian started to walk towards his stay . Ling Tian didn't want to continue talking with the Chu brothers as to avoid any suspicions towards his identity. Although there was only a slim chance of that happening, he still chose to be cautious.

" Okay then, see you later."

" Have a good rest."

The Chu Brothers didn't seem to think much about Ling Tian's behaviour as they watched him go towards the place he was staying.

...........

Ling Tian soon reached the place allotted to him by the sect and what awaited him was a tattered hut that seemed like it would fall apart any moment. Although knew of this from the memories he inherited from his past self, he was still crestfallen at the thought of living in a place like this.

When Ling Tian entered the hut. Inside the hut a few pieces of blankets and a few vessels that is used for cooking. Seeing this Ling Tian became more depressed , because now Ling Tian was no different from a beggar.

Ling Tian was mentally tired with all the things that happened to him, so he spread out a blanket a lied down on it and he fell asleep almost instantly.

.........

The Next morning.

After waking up, Ling Tian went outside towards the resource exchange hall. Resource exchange hall is a place where a disciple of the sect can buy and sell cultivation resources like spiritual herbs, spirit pills, etc,. Ling Tian was planning to sell some of the lower tier spiritual herbs he found in the cave of Black Night Cat, so that he can buy some spirit pills that can aid his cultivation and buy some daily necessities that he is extremely lacking.

While Ling Tian was moving towards the resource exchange hall , he noticed that hundreds of outer court disciples had gathered around the entrance of the sect.

"Hmm? Is there something going on there?" Ling Tian was curious know what was happening, so he moved towards the crowd.

" The core disciples that went on a special mission. Do you think they succeeded?"

" Of course they did! Just how powerful do you think it takes one to be a core disciple?"

"No kidding. Each of the ten core disciples have cultivation of early stage Foundation Establishment Realm! That's a level I can only hope of reaching with my talent."

" Not to mention all of them have an age less than 20 years ."

" I'll get to see the core disciples in a while."

" I only want to see senior sister Zuqin and junior sister Qinyue."

" They are as beautiful as heavenly fairies. "

............

Ling Tian was kind of surprised by the discussions among the crowd. And he was particularly interested in seeing just how beautiful the so called 'heavenly beauties' were. When Ling Tian was trying to see if there were any about the 'heavenly beauties', Ling Tian suddenly felt a pain in head and strangely he felt pain in his heart as well.

A name called Xin Qinyue and the figure of a 10 year old beautiful girl appeared in his mind as memories started flooding into his head.
