"This is my spirit pet, Fei Cui. She will lead you to your rooms," Xuanli elder said to Xuan Xiaowei.
Fei Cui, a spirit cat carved as if from jade, briefly transformed into human form.
Unlike White Tiger Boy, she has a pair of emerald green cat ears on her head, and her eyes also sparkle with a bright green light, like the brightest stars in the night sky. Her tail naturally sways with her movements, making it clear at a glance that she is not human.
With Xuan Xiaowei, Jade passed through a series of ancient yet modern corridors. Lanterns on both sides emitted a soft glow, illuminating their path.
Passing through the main hall and the Side hall, Fei Fei led them to a palace standing in the valley.
A three-story building, its surface inlaid with jade emitting a faint green light. The interior of the building was luxurious yet simple, with magnificent paintings and exquisite sculptures showcasing the extraordinary nature of the place.
The large plaque above reads "Cuiying Tower". This building is the residence of the hunters who have successfully killed demons of the Charm and Wraith levels, bestowed by the Pure Moon Sect. It is also the residence of the most respected Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Rank Hall Masters.
The building presents itself in an extremely exquisite design, with marble columns adorned with intricate reliefs. Every detail seems to have been carefully carved.
"You will be staying here later," Jade said elegantly, her eyes shimmering with a light blue glow, as if containing all the secrets of the ocean.
"Wow, this is really beautiful!" Xuan Xiaowei couldn't help but exclaim.
As they approached, Xuan Xiaowei felt a compelling force emanating from the building, as if the building itself was a powerful warrior.
They passed through the door and entered a spacious foyer. The walls of the foyer were adorned with huge paintings depicting various breathtaking battle scenes and magnificent natural landscapes.
One of the paintings is particularly eye-catching. It depicts a young woman, holding a sword, battling a flaming wolf demon.
The long corridor was bustling with numerous servants coming and going. As they passed by, the servants secretly pointed and whispered, their words filled with curiosity and doubt. Fei Cui's cat-like ears caught snippets of their conversation.
They were discussing the newcomer, Xuan Xiaowei, a girl of about fifteen years old, who had just arrived. They found it incredible that she could live in such a high-ranking mansion.
Whispers fell naturally into Xuan Xiaowei's ears.
"Is this the girl who was just brought back? I've never seen her before, she's a bit older," a servant whispered.
"It's incredible to reach the Cuiying stage so quickly. Just arrived and already skipped three levels, going straight to the 'Cuiying Tower'."
Another servant muttered, "You know, the lord who can live there must have at least slain and beheaded mid-level demons like Meis and Wangs to live there."
Xuan Xiaowei smiled helplessly when she heard this, and asked, "Fei Cui, is it suitable for me to live here?"
Fei Cui replied confidently, "Don't worry about what they say. Here, the descendants of goddess XuanYuan clan have always started living from this Cuiying Tower. Other girls need to start training from the 'Chuzhan Tower'."
She deliberately raised her voice so that everyone could hear.
" YueYing lord said you are qualified, so you are qualified."
Upon hearing the name " YueYing lord ", the servants around immediately fell silent. Beneath the goddess is the YueYing Palace Master.
The only YueYing Palace Master to have escaped from the clutches of the great demon wolf demon in those years, although still paying an extremely painful price, just the reputation of his title alone is enough to silence anyone.
A servant muttered quietly, "The highest-ranking YueYing lord of the Pure Moon Sect said so, so don't spread rumors."
Another servant couldn't help but sigh, "That XuanYuan XuanLi was also the only one among the three YueYing lords who managed to escape from the hands of the great demon wolf demon back then, but I heard that he also ended up seriously injured in the end."
"Unfortunately, the other two adults were wasted. I thought the three YueYing lord could capture the wolf demon, but it turns out only a goddess level can handle it. It's a pity that the Qingyue Sect lost two strong individuals for nothing."
Every sound made Xuan Xiaowei feel increasingly pressured. She silently observed everything around her, sensing a palpable tension in the air.
"The influence of the Pure Moon Sect is not as strong as before, and many Taoist sects are also watching us closely," a servant said discontentedly.
"So what? The foundation of the Pure Moon Sect over the past century, is it just for show?" A smile played at the corner of Fei Cui's mouth. "Even though we lost two members, the leaders of the 'First Blossom' and 'Cuiying' pavilions, we still have over a thousand disciples. Such power cannot be easily shaken."
"It's a pity... as a descendant of the goddess, no one has advanced to the level of goddess in the past two hundred years." Fei Cui added a final sentence, as if reminding Xuan Xiaowei that her appearance might bring a glimmer of hope.
Xuan Xiaowei smiled slightly, but she felt more pressure and worry. After all, she was a third-year junior high school girl who had traveled from modern times. How could she bear such a heavy responsibility and pressure?
A feeling that cannot be described made Xuan Xiaowei feel uneasy, as if something was about to happen. However, at that moment, she suddenly felt a subtle touch of warmth, and an inexplicable courage surged in her heart.
Who gave her such power?
Xuan Xiaowei looked up and saw White Tiger Boy standing not far away, his deep gaze fixed on her as if he were also observing her.
"Do you think you can handle this responsibility?" White Tiger Boy suddenly asked, his tone casual.
Xuan Xiaowei took a deep breath and had an answer in his heart: "I don't know, but I will try. This Sect, this world, has given me a second chance at life, and it's also my grandparents' expectation. I don't want to give up easily."
White Tiger Boy Pouted and said, "Showing off."
Xuan Xiaowei Laughed, looking very happy, as if she had found some kind of certainty in life. "Xiao Bai, I don't even know your name yet."
Bai Cang seemed somewhat displeased upon hearing the words "Xiao Bai." He stopped and tucked a strand of green hair behind his ear, squinting at her. "I hate the name Xiao Bai the most. My name is Bai Cang."
Xuan Xiaowei couldn't help but laugh, as if this laughter had broken the previous tense atmosphere. "Alright, Bai Cang, nice to formally meet you."
Bai Cang A faint smile, the expression seemed to relax a lot. "Nice to meet you too, Xuan Xiaowei."
At this moment, a man suddenly appeared in their line of sight. He was dressed in a black warrior's robe, with a hat covering his face, and he held a silver-white long sword in his hand, with a crescent-shaped scabbard on his back.
His eyes revealed a cold and stern aura, but at the same time, they also carried a subtle and not easily detectable curiosity.
Jade immediately bowed when she saw him and said, "Lord ZhanYue, you're back. This is Miss XuanYuan Xiaowei, the newcomer just brought back by Elder YueYing."
ZhanYue glanced at XuanYuan Xiaowei and then said to Jade, "Hmm, you go and settle her in first."
Then, he suddenly stopped and turned to stare at XuanYuan Xiaowei, with a hint of inquiry in his tone: "Are you also a descendant of the XuanYuan clan?"
XuanYuan Xiaowei nodded, feeling a sense of unease towards this person called ZhanYue.
"The XuanYuan clan, who are in exile, is interesting, very interesting," ZhanYue said with a barely perceptible hint of amusement in his tone.
Xuan Xiaowei was puzzled, but her intuition told her that this man named ZhanYue would have a significant influence in the future.
"Alright, Fei Cui, you guys go ahead and get busy." ZhanYue said, then turned and left.
Xuan Xiaowei continued to walk and began to observe the Cuiying Tower, noticing its unique layout and carefully designed corners.
Different rooms represent different levels of hunters, each with their unique tasks and functions.
Cuiying Tower has a spacious hall with multiple round tables and benches for hunters to rest and discuss.
In the center of the hall at Cuiying Tower stands a group of young female hunters, each wielding their weapons and chatting effortlessly. One of the hunters, with a longbow slung across her back and eyes sparkling like agate, walks towards Xuan Xiaowei.
"The new girl is a descendant of a goddess, can she really make it here?" a mischievous female hunter with dual blades asked.
"Hah, being a goddess descendant isn't necessarily a big deal. There are over a hundred goddess descendants now, but it's been many years since a goddess appeared. I bet she'll only last a few days at most," another archer hunter scoffed.
At that moment, Shangguan Yao walked over, her agate-like eyes shining with a formidable look.
"Do not underestimate anyone, everyone has the potential to become a hero," Shangguan Yao said solemnly.
At this point, Fei Cui also joined their ranks and gently patted Shangguan Yao's shoulder.
"Shangguan Yao is right. In the Pure Moon Sect, only strength can prove everything. Xuan Xiaowei, she is still young!"
Shangguan Yao nodded and looked in the direction of Xuan Xiaowei and ZhanYue. In his heart, he understood that this girl was new, but no matter what, he would not underestimate anyone.
"Are you the new Xuan Xiaowei?" asked the huntress Shangguan Yao with a smile.
"Yes, I am Xuan Xiaowei. And you?" responded Xuan Xiaowei.
Shangguan Yao smiled and said, "I am Shangguan Yao, nice to meet you." There seemed to be a premonition in her voice, but it was quickly covered up.
Xuan Xiaowei noticed that besides Shangguan Yao, the gazes of the other female hunters also fell on her and White Tiger Boy, but their eyes carried a hint of wariness and curiosity.
Xuan Xiaowei nodded, knowing that if she wanted to survive in this place, she had to demonstrate more abilities. "Here, everyone has their own story and power. As long as you prove yourself, you will gain their recognition," interjected Fei Cui.
Xuan Xiaowei and Bai Cang followed Fei Cui into a huge room.
In the room hangs a huge portrait of a woman who bears some resemblance to her, that is goddess XuanYuan clan.
"This is where you will live in the future. This room is prepared for the descendants of goddess XuanYuan clan. I believe you will like it here," Fei Cui said.
Xuan Xiaowei stood in the room, feeling a sudden inexplicable pressure. Bai Cang stood by the side, his gaze shifting between Xuan Xiaowei and the painting, as if searching for some answer.
