“Uncle-Master Tian Yi?” The Sect Master paused and respectfully cupped his fists.

“My Dan Xia Mountain needs a disciple to tend to the spirit herbs, I shall just pick one here.” That Soul Formation cultivator said casually, his gaze swept across the new disciples in the hall and finally stopped on Zuo Shuming who was at level seven in Qi Refinement, his finger pointed at him. “He shall do!”

All the disciples were stunned and turned back to look at Zuo Shuming in envy. Though he was merely tending to spirit herbs and wasn’t a formal disciple, but that was the Soul Formation Supremacy who had the highest level of cultivation in Gui Yi Sect. If he could just get a pointer from him, it would last him for a lifetime.

Lonemoon could not help but took time to glance at Zuo Shuming, he was just about to sigh, though this fellow was naive and innocent, he was really quite lucky, he’d proven himself to be someone who could ascend.

In the next moment, a peculiar robotic voice suddenly sounded.

Ding! Mission: Wreck the male lead’s chance of getting into Dan Xia Mountain! Prevent him from ascending! Fulfill host’s aspiration of completing his revenge! All the best host! Multiple Transmigration System 001 has faith in you!

Rest assured 001, we transmigrated through so many worlds already, I know it! Such jerks like Zuo Shuming, even if there wasn’t a mission, I would still get revenge for host!

Shen Ying: “…”

Yi Qing: “…”

Lonemoon: “…”

(⊙_⊙)

What the hell was that sudden voice? Had they… forgotten to turn off public broadcast?

They instantly had some understanding of Shen Ying’s feelings when she met Feng Ying back then. This public broadcast… was really f*cking loud!

However, it seems like other than the three of them, no one else could hear it at all.

“Grandmaster Tian Yi… is there anything special about this disciple?” That invader suddenly spoke up, looking innocently up at the Soul Formation cultivator. “He actually made you speak personally to recruit him to Dan Xia Mountain.”

“Little Yi, do not be rude in front of Uncle-Master!” With those words, the Nascent Soul cultivator beside her immediately chided her.

“It’s alright.” That Soul Formation cultivator known as Tian Yi glanced at her, instead of being angry, he was good-natured as he said, “It isn’t that there’s anything special about this disciple, I just need a disciple to tend to the spirit herbs, there are no demands with regards to cultivation, it could be anyone. He has the highest cultivation amongst this group of disciples who practice Qi Refinement, so I chose him.”

“Grandmaster, that’s not right of you to say that.” The invader blinked, pouting her mouth to look even more innocent as she said, “You are the Soul Formation Supremacy of Gui Yi Sect. Which one of the Senior Brothers on Dan Xia Mountain aren’t outstanding. Even if he’s just being an attendant to spirit herbs, it’s still a huge opportunity to disciples of the sect. I think Grandmaster should pick one with good qualifications, this way, you will continue to uplift the prestige of Dan Xia Mountain.”

That Soul Formation cultivator’s smile became even gentler, his gaze towards the girl was filled with some indulgence for a junior. “Then what kind of person does Little Yi think I should pick?”

“I think he’s not bad!” She pointed to a disciple beside Zuo Shuming and said,

“I read the register earlier, he has two spirit roots of elemental earth and wood, he is most suitable for tending to spirit herbs.”

Tian Yi took a look at that disciple and was not too bothered. Nodding, he said, “Alright, I’ll change it to him.”

That disciple was wild with joy and quickly stepped forward and said with cupped fists, “Thank you Supremacy!”

“Mm.” Supremacy Tian Yi nodded in acknowledgment.

A hint of smugness instantly flashed through the invader’s eyes.

In moments, the gazes from the other disciples to Zuo Shuming was filled with sympathy. Instead, his own expression remained usual, with no dejection of losing a huge opportunity, his eyes continued swept through the crowds around him from time to time, like he was searching for something.

Seeing that the selections were more or less done, the Sect Master then instructed the disciples to lead everyone to the outer hall.

The remaining people then walked out wearing looks of disappointment, they all seemed very dejected as they followed listlessly behind the Senior Brother leading the way. Except for Zuo Shuming! He seemed to be worried now, not long after walking out, he started to grab people around him and question.

“Fellow Daoist, have you seen my companions? The three who boarded the boat with me?”

“No!”

“Senior Brother, have you seen my friends? There are three of them, one called Lonemoon, another called Yi Qing and another lady with the surname Shen.”

“Never heard of them.”

“Brother, three of my friends have gone missing, they boarded the boat with me earlier. They’re Foundation Establishment cultivators, have you seen them?”

“No.”

“This…”

Zuo Shuming became more anxious the more he went on, even the disciple leading the way at the front was alerted, he walked over from the front. “What’s with the din behind?”

Once he saw that it was Zuo Shuming, a trace of sympathy instantly passed through his eyes. “What happened?”

“Senior Brother…” Zuo Shuming hurriedly went forward, looking even more panicky. “My friends are missing, they passed the test with me.”

“That’s impossible? We did a headcount when we alighted the boat earlier!” He frowned and asked for the names of the three and flipped all the way through the register. A while later, he looked up at him, his gaze even more sympathetic. “The three people that you speak of aren’t on the register.”

“How is that possible!” Zuo Shuming was stunned, they’d even chatted on the boat just now.

“Alright alright! Let’s continue to move!” That disciple gave him another look of sympathy, could he have gone crazy from his sadness of not getting into Dan Xia Mountain? He sighed, then continued to lead the way. Sigh! He was a pitiful being too.

Zuo Shuming then followed with a dumbfounded look.

Shen Ying who had been following behind the whole time: “…”

Lonemoon who had wiped their names off the register: “…”

Yi Qing who maintained the array formation the whole way: “…”

Um… seems like they’ve accidentally done their friend in.

“Master…” Yi Qing could not help but suggest worriedly. “Do we need to wipe his memory?”

Shen Ying thought for a moment, before she replied, Lonemoon did so ahead of her. “Forget it! That invader’s target is him, if we act recklessly, she might become aware of us, let’s think of something else.”

Yi Qing nodded.

Lonemoon recalled the special voice they’d heard earlier and turned to Shen Ying. “Shen Ying, do you know what exactly that system earlier was?” From what they heard from the two voices, this doesn’t seem like the first world they’d invaded. “There was still some mission like fulfilling the host’s aspirations, could it be that the so-called host, was the original soul of the body?”

“This might be the reason why the primary soul fused with the invader.” The invader would help to fulfill her wishes so the primary soul automatically fused with her. Leading to them not seeing through her identity of an invader from the start.

“Her system isn’t the same as Feng Ying’s one, is it?”

“About the same.” Shen Ying cocked her head to a side. “So-called systems are technological products of higher-level planes that has its own consciousness. But… I’ve never seen a system that can transmigrate through planes.” Feng Ying’s parenting system happened to fall to this plane because of a plane storm and this one evidently hadn’t

“Then what do we do now?”

“I’ve got to ask my sister.” Shen Ying thought for a moment. “She should have the information on this aspect.”
