Quick Transmigration: The Mad Beauty Refuses to Be the Scapegoat!-Chapter 226 - 7: The Unhinged Little Junior Sister Refuses to Be Cannon Fodder (7)

Chapter 226: Chapter 7: The Unhinged Little Junior Sister Refuses to Be Cannon Fodder (7)

Facing the senior brothers who had never seen him before, Jiang Lai could say whatever he wanted.

But the person in front of him, Du Furong, was a close friend from childhood with the original host. If Jiang Lai acted too strangely, in a cultivation world setting, it would easily raise suspicions of being taken over.

Thus, Little Buding repeatedly emphasized the persona and reminded Jiang Lai.

"If we cause any suspicion, our mission fails. So be extra cautious, okay? Especially don’t slip up in front of Du Furong."

With no other choice, Jiang Lai could only maintain the persona and threw out a harsh line.

The three sisters gathered together and happened to encounter people from the Sun and Moon Sect coming down when they went up to test their spiritual power.

Mu Wu, dressed in white, her long hair braided and draped behind her, walked past Jiang Lai with indifferent eyes.

Beside her was another girl, also dressed in white, constantly whispering something into Mu Wu’s ear, seemingly a new friend.

Du Furong patted Jiang Lai.

"Look at her arrogance! If it weren’t for her, you wouldn’t have been assigned to the Tiangang Sect!"

At worst, he would have been in the Sword Qi Sect.

Jiang Lai nodded and then shot Mu Wu a classic villainous hateful stare.

Du Furong nodded in approval.

"That’s right, let her know that we aren’t easy to bully!"

The senior brothers behind saw this scene, and Fourth Senior Brother laughed with a hint of mockery.

"No wonder, you got into our Tiangang Sect."

First Senior Brother frowned; he wasn’t one to make trouble or enjoy such people, but Jiang Lai’s behavior just now seemed a bit immature to him.

However, recalling Jiang Lai’s strength and what she said to him the other day, First Senior Brother swallowed the words he intended to say.

Mu Wu, who had already walked past, didn’t pay any attention to Jiang Lai. Wei Ziling beside her cautiously reminded her.

"I think that girl in black has something against you, be careful later."

"No problem; if she dares provoke me, I’ll make her regret it for life."

Wei Ziling chuckled.

"That’s you, always ready to beat anyone who provokes you, no nonsense."

"The saying ’Don’t offend if not offended’ isn’t always right. When you know someone has harmful intentions toward you, do you wait until they act before retaliating?"

Wei Ziling heard this approach for the first time.

"So what should be done?"

"Make her avoid you, so she’ll never dare to appear in front of you."

Mu Wu, having stood at the peak in her previous life, had never received such looks and grievances as today. She was never patient and didn’t regard those without even Tenth Rank Cultivation, like small fry, seriously, nor did she bother reasoning with them.

If there’s a problem, just beat them.

Wei Ziling was full of admiration, holding Mu Wu’s sleeve with stars in her eyes.

"Mu Wu, you’re really amazing. I wish I could be as strong as you."

Even though she only had Third Stage Cultivation, she could defeat someone at the Sixth Stage, shocking the entire sect, and even reaching the Sect Leader’s ears, gaining his favor. Wei Ziling felt lucky to befriend such an impressive figure.

Mu Wu smiled.

"Stay with me, and you’ll become strong too."

"Yes, this trial, I definitely want to be on your team!"

The test began, and when they saw Jiang Lai was still at Third Rank, Third Senior Brother’s eyes almost popped out in surprise.

He had already ascended from Fourth Rank to Sixth Rank; how was Jiang Lai still at Third Rank?

The rest went up to test sequentially, and First Senior Brother broke through to Seventh Rank, eliciting awe from those around.

Second Senior Brother had just reached Fifth Rank recently, but when it was Third Senior Brother’s turn, seeing the red spiritual power climbing all the way to the peak of Sixth Rank, except for Jiang Lai, everyone else in the Tiangang Sect was stunned.

"When did you raise your cultivation?"

Fourth Senior Brother was incredulous; Third Senior Brother was previously the lowest in cultivation, even weaker than himself. How did he advance to the peak of Sixth Rank in just a few months?

The disciples nearby whispered among themselves.

"You couldn’t tell about the Tiangang Sect, all of them are experts."

"Looks like the sect trials this time will see the Tiangang Sect shine."

"Despite their meager Spirit Stones each year, they have four disciples above Fifth Rank; that’s exaggerated."

"But there’s also the little junior sister; she seems just over Third Rank, not very impressive."

Hearing this, Third Senior Brother silently glanced at Jiang Lai standing nearby.

"What’s with you? Why are you still at Third Rank?"

"What’s wrong with Third Rank? It’s enough to participate in the sect trial."

Third Senior Brother sighed.

"Don’t worry, once we’re down there, I’ll give you all the good stuff I find. Just stick with me, don’t wander off. Trial Area is rife with demons, danger lurks, I’ll protect you well... me and the other senior brothers will protect you."

Fourth Senior Brother chimed in.

"I never said such a thing; Third Senior Brother, if you fancy the little junior sister, just admit it. Don’t stick us with high hats."

Third Senior Brother blushed, his eyes darting, not daring to meet Jiang Lai’s eyes, and punched Fourth Senior Brother.

"Stop talking nonsense! Master instructed us to protect the little junior sister well!"

"Yes, First and Second Senior Brothers heard it, protect our little junior sister well, can’t let her be eaten by Magic Beasts!"

The relationship between the four senior brothers was good because their master didn’t have many demands. Thus, each year, the sect trial was just for show; with only four people, they couldn’t compete for tasks and resources like other sects.

So, when the Task Roll was announced, everyone else rushed forward to grab a Task Scroll, while the four Tiangang Sect disciples stood still, detached from the bustle.

Giving up.

Jiang Lai, seeing them, could only think of this one word.

In the end, Jiang Lai lined up and took a Task Scroll, which clearly listed this year’s sect trials’ tasks, totaling ten, with different rewards set according to difficulty.

Like the first task, a jar of Poison King Bee Honey, the reward was three thousand Spirit Stones, enough for ten disciples to use for a year.

The remaining nine tasks were similar, involving gathering heavenly materials and treasures, hunting vicious demons, rewards tempting but dangerous, requiring team cooperation, so the four Tiangang Sect people never hoped they could win Spirit Stones through these tasks.

Seeing Jiang Lai take a Task Scroll, First Senior Brother advised.

"Most tasks above require five people to complete; best not to take risks. It’s enough to protect your life during the ten-day trial."

"Yes, yes, collecting some Spirit Grass can be exchanged for Spirit Stones; no need to covet those rewards."
