"Who is Chu Jianqiu?"

Just as the two were about to clash, and everyone around was waiting for the show to begin, a clear and delicate voice echoed through the grand hall.

Everyone turned their heads at the sound of the voice.

Chu Jianqiu was also somewhat curious. In the Xuanjian Sect, apart from Luo Xiuyong, who else could know him?

Han Anyi, at this moment, paid no attention to Chu Jianqiu and stared straight at the source of the voice.

At the entrance of the grand hall, a girl of about fifteen or sixteen appeared. She had a beautiful and graceful appearance, with an indescribable elegance. She wore a dress with floral patterns, her figure was slender, and her long black hair cascaded down her back like a waterfall. Her clear, water-like eyes curiously surveyed the surroundings.

When the crowd saw this girl, the new disciples were merely shocked by her stunning beauty, but among the senior disciples, a wave of excitement swept through.

"Heavens, who am I seeing? Is it Zuoqiu Lianzhu? I must be dreaming!"

"My goddess, I finally see my goddess again!" Some disciples looked at the girl with passionate and reverent eyes, but they dared not approach, for fear of desecrating their goddess.

"Why is she here? It's been a long time since she came to the outer sect."

"Probably to find someone. Didn't you hear her asking who is Chu Jianqiu?"

"Who is Chu Jianqiu? Who is Chu Jianqiu? I don't think anyone in the outer sect is named Chu Jianqiu."

"Is Chu Jianqiu a new disciple?"

"Why isn't she looking for me? Why am I not called Chu Jianqiu?"

...

"Who is Chu Jianqiu?" The girl's cherry lips parted, and her clear, crisp voice rang out again, as melodious as a string of pearls.

Just hearing this beautiful voice, everyone felt a tingling sensation all over, and they felt that the person being called was so fortunate, which made them extremely jealous of the one named Chu Jianqiu.

The crowd, with their eyes red with jealousy, scanned the crowd, trying to find out who the lucky person was.

In the crowd, Si Fengkai stared at the girl, his heart burning with jealousy. Why wasn't she looking for him? He, Si Fengkai, was the pride of heaven, the one who should receive the favor of the beauty. Who in this grand hall could compare to him?

Han Anyi was already in a daze, muttering to himself, "Why isn't she looking for me? Why isn't she looking for me? I, Han Anyi, am handsome and talented. Who in the outer sect can compare to me?"

"I am Chu Jianqiu." Chu Jianqiu, seeing the red, jealous eyes around him, felt a bit uneasy, but he had to step forward after the girl called out twice.

Han Anyi's pupils suddenly contracted, and he turned to stare at Chu Jianqiu with disbelief. Chu Jianqiu was actually that Body Refinement Realm waste, and she was looking for just a Body Refinement Realm waste!

Han Anyi's jealousy flared up, and his eyes turned red with extreme jealousy.

Si Fengkai also looked as if he had seen a ghost, his eyes wide open. The celestial maiden was actually looking for that Body Refinement Realm waste from Tianshui County. Si Fengkai instantly felt unbalanced, his heart burning with jealousy, wishing he could tear apart that Body Refinement Realm waste.

Only he, Si Fengkai, should receive the favor of such a beauty. Why should that Body Refinement Realm waste from Tianshui County receive such an honor?

"Miss, are you looking for the wrong person? He is just a Body Refinement Realm waste. I am Si Fengkai, with a High-Grade Xuan Bloodline, and I am a Third Rank True Qi Realm martial artist." Si Fengkai couldn't help but step forward, smiling at the beautiful girl.

When he mentioned his bloodline and cultivation, Si Fengkai's demeanor showed a hint of pride and satisfaction. With his outstanding talent, he was sure to attract her. With his talent, his future was boundless, and which beauty wouldn't want to throw herself at him?

The senior disciples, seeing Si Fengkai's behavior, looked at him as if he were a fool.

What fool is this? Does he even know who this girl is!

High-Grade Xuan Bloodline, Third Rank True Qi Realm, is that something to boast about? Perhaps it is outstanding among the outer sect disciples, but in the eyes of this girl, it is nothing but trash.

The girl lightly wrinkled her cute nose, not even glancing at Si Fengkai. She was too lazy to deal with this fool who had appeared out of nowhere.

The girl walked up to Chu Jianqiu and smiled sweetly, "You are Chu Jianqiu!"

She looked the young man up and down. He was quite handsome and looked pleasant. Indeed, he was the one her master had chosen.

Chu Jianqiu nodded, "Yes, I am Chu Jianqiu."

"Where is the token your master gave you?" the girl asked with a smile.

Chu Jianqiu was slightly taken aback, then remembered the token the black-robed beauty had given him in Tianshui City. He took out the token and asked, "Is this it?"

The girl took the token and nodded, "Yes, that's it. From now on, you are the junior brother of the Fourth Peak of the Xuanjian Sect. My name is Zuoqiu Lianzhu. You can call me Senior Sister Zuoqiu."

The girl seemed to be afraid that Chu Jianqiu might not understand the hierarchy, so she emphasized that she was his senior sister.

Chu Jianqiu looked at the girl's proud expression and felt a slight sweat on his forehead. The girl was a year or two younger than him, yet she was so fond of being called senior sister.

However, in the sect, the hierarchy was not based on age but on the order of entry. Since he entered after the girl, calling her senior sister was appropriate.

"Yes, Senior Sister Zuoqiu," Chu Jianqiu replied.

The girl was delighted by the title and pulled Chu Jianqiu's hand, leading him out of the grand hall, "Come, let's go to the Fourth Peak. I'll arrange your accommodation."

Chu Jianqiu felt the heat of the gazes around him and wiped his sweat. If the jealousy of these people could be materialized, he would probably be burned to ashes.

"Senior Sister Zuoqiu, wait a moment," Chu Jianqiu stopped.

The girl was slightly taken aback, "What's wrong?" but she did not let go of Chu Jianqiu's soft hand.

"I have some matters to attend to," Chu Jianqiu said with a slight smile, feeling the pressure of being publicly held by the girl.

"What matters? Tell Senior Sister, and see if I can help," the girl said warmly.

"It's not a big deal," Chu Jianqiu said, walking up to Han Anyi and said calmly, "Fulingxue, the junior sister, does not wish to join the Xuan Yun Society. Please do not force her, Senior Brother."

The girl, hearing Chu Jianqiu's words, looked at Fulingxue beside him, and her face darkened. She shouted, "Han Anyi, what's going on?"

She had heard about Han Anyi's deeds before, but she usually didn't care about the affairs of the outer sect. Now that he was bullying her junior brother, she couldn't ignore it.
