Survive, the rules of rebirth for the villain witch

“So many people came to ask for the sword!”

Looking at the long dragon at the foot of Shengjian Peak, Geng Xiaofeng couldn't help but marvel.

"The sect competition only takes place once every three years. Many disciples who have been on missions outside, outer disciples who have to return to the sect for no reason, and children of the city's aristocratic families will take this opportunity to ask Senior Jianfeng for a sword."

Qi Lin enthusiastically explained to the two of them, and suddenly lowered his voice and said, "However, less than 10% of people can achieve their goals. But Senior Brother has confidence in Junior Brother Chu. But why does Junior Brother Chu wear a mask? Does he have no confidence in himself?"

"I am also very confident in myself. As for wearing a mask..." Chu Yi said shyly, "It was Senior Brother Xu's idea. He said it was to protect me."

“Pfft…” Wang Qingci couldn’t help but burst out laughing, shook his head and sighed, “He’s afraid that the female disciples will be too enthusiastic and scare you away. It seems that the shadow left behind by those years has not yet dissipated, so he specifically reminded you to wear a mask.”

Chu Yi was stunned for a moment and said, "A cultivator should not be pure and free from desires, why are you still obsessed with love between men and women?"

Uh……

This question stumped everyone present.

Qi Lin said somewhat awkwardly: "Although there are many immortal cultivators in the world, how many of them can possibly ascend to become immortals? Becoming an immortal is too far away for ordinary people. Only people with the talent of Miss Youhuang can dare to think of overcoming the tribulation and becoming an immortal. Ordinary cultivators can only hope to live forever."

"I'm sorry to say that I don't agree with Senior Brother Qi's idea." Chu Yi denied Qi Lin's idea and expressed his own opinion generously: "Rather than accepting my fate too early, I'd rather try my best."

"Junior brother, if you have any ideas, please share them with me." Qi Lin did not ridicule, but instead felt that Chu Yi's words made sense.

“It’s hard to become an immortal, but there are still people who can ascend to become immortals, which shows that it’s just hard, not impossible.” Thinking back to his past, Chu Yi said confidently, “When Huang’er was young, she was kidnapped by a villain and abandoned in the market. She became a beggar and wandered around for ten years. If she had accepted her fate early on, how could she be the Chu Youhuang of today?”

"Huang'er has gone through much more suffering than this..."

Chu Yi didn't know why You Huang killed her mother, but he believed that she would not hurt anyone unless it was a matter of life and death. He came to her to get the truth.

"When I first met her, she was wearing gorgeous clothes. I thought she had been living a life of luxury since she was a child. I didn't expect..." Wang Qingci did not see Youhuang's life as a beggar with his own eyes, but he could imagine how difficult it was for a child to make a living. As for the old Taoist nun, her intentions were unclear and her purpose remained to be considered.

"The team is moving. Let's not talk about this for now. Let's go."

The team in front finally moved forward, and Chu Yi immediately changed the subject. After all, it was family matters and it was not appropriate to talk too much.

They had not walked far when they saw some people walking back. Geng Xiaofeng was surprised and asked, "Why are they walking back? Are they so fast in asking for the sword?"

"They didn't make it past the first level, so they have to leave." Wang Qingci said with some regret, "The first level of the sword-seeking process is to test the sword. That is, use the sword prepared by Senior Jianfeng in advance to chop the sword-testing stone. Only those who can leave a sword mark can go up the mountain to seek the sword."

"It's quite interesting."

Chu Yi looks gentle and elegant. After all, he comes from a family of generals and has the adventurous spirit of generals in his bones.

The line looked long, but the sword-testing process was very fast. Soon, four people arrived in front of the sword-testing platform, where a monk raised a bamboo stick and angrily chopped at a dark stone.

The results can be imagined:

The bamboo branch broke without leaving any sword marks, a failure.

"The bamboo sticks chop...stones."

Geng Xiao was so shocked that he stuttered. No wonder so many people failed.

Wang Qingci whispered, "Practicing sword skills also requires comprehension. Only those with high comprehension can use a bamboo stick to leave sword marks on the sword-testing stone."

"I see."

Chu Yi immediately understood the significance of the sword test and whispered a few words into Geng Xiaofeng's ear.

Qi Lin smiled as soon as he saw it and said, "It seems that Junior Brother Chu has figured out the trick. Senior Brother and Senior Sister will wait for your good news."

"Junior Brother Chu, you will form a group with the people in front and go up to the sword test first." Wang Qingci gently reminded Chu Yi. Chu Yi bowed to the two of them and said, "Thank you, Senior Sister Wang and Senior Brother Qi, for accompanying me all the way."

Chu Yi walked to the sword testing platform.

There was a table for one person in front, and the disciple in charge behind the table said, "Brother, come quickly to register and receive your name badge."

"Fill in your name and which elder you are the disciple sitting down for." The disciple in charge smiled and handed over a pen dipped in ink.

"Thank you, senior brother, for reminding me."

Chu Yi thanked the other party before taking the pen and writing his information on the name tag.

The disciple in charge cast a spell on the name tag, then handed it to him with both hands and said, "I wish you a successful sword test and hope you can win a good sword in one fell swoop."

"Thank you, senior brother!"

Chu Yi took the name tag with both hands, thanked the other party and then walked onto the sword-testing stage.

There were already six people waiting for the sword test on the sword test platform. Suddenly, they saw a masked man coming up. One of them couldn't help but mock him, "You're wearing a mask. Are you afraid of failing the sword test and being embarrassed, so you deliberately covered your face early?"

"I won't fail." Chu Yi answered seriously, and a burst of ridicule immediately broke out on the sword-testing stage.

"Don't be so confident. There was a precedent of a total annihilation just now."

The man continued to provoke Chu Yi. The other five people could see that he was targeting Chu Yi intentionally, but they were just watching the show and had no intention of joining in.

Chu Yi is not a person who likes to argue, but that doesn't mean he will allow others to bully him and keep silent. He chuckled and said, "So you have already determined that you will fail."

“I didn’t say that, but I won’t be as brazen as you. Be careful or you might get slapped in the face.” The man had seen Chu Yi being escorted all the way to the sword testing stage by two inner sect disciples, so he deliberately provoked her out of jealousy. However, he shut up in dismay when he didn’t get any advantage.

The first person in their group, following the instruction of another disciple in charge, had carefully selected a bamboo stick from the basket in front of the sword-testing stone.

There was also a disciple in charge standing next to the sword-testing stone. It seemed that he was specifically there to observe whether the test-taker left any sword marks. But for some reason, I felt that these disciples in charge were a little strange from the moment I received the name tags.

Chu Yi didn't think much about it and his eyes fell on the person who was about to test the sword.

The man held the bamboo stick, lifted up the hem of his robe, stood on horseback, and raised the bamboo stick high up, chopping at the sword-testing stone with all his might.

Snapped!

The bamboo branch was not broken, but no sword marks were left.

failure!

Chu Yi glanced at the bamboo stick in the man's hand.

Although it was not broken, it was almost completely cracked, and some similar scenes flashed through his eyes.

The next five people failed in succession. When the people below saw that there was only one person left, someone couldn't help but say, "Are we going to be wiped out again?"

The person who had just provoked Chu Yi seemed to find it difficult to accept the result. He threw away the broken bamboo branch and glared at Chu Yi before leaving, saying, "I just can't speak too confidently, or I'll get slapped in the face."

"Don't worry about it."

Chu Yi walked forward and picked up a bamboo branch from the basket at random.

When he walked to the sword-testing stone and saw the purple bamboo powder on the ground, he subconsciously said, "As expected."

Thinking of this, Chu Yichun infused his spiritual power into the bamboo branch, forcing out a sword light that instantly crossed the sword-testing stone.

There was a flash of lightning on the sword-testing stone, and the bamboo stick in Chu Yi's hand turned into powder, and a burst of laughter came from the side.
