Chapter 570 Offering Fish 6
The pink-shirted woman put aside her anger towards Lin Jiu for the moment. After all, she was more angry at Liao Tingyan for making her look bad in public.
She lightly walked around behind Liao Tingyan, a scornful smile on her lips, and said sarcastically, "Look at your lowly cultivation level. You're just a useless piece of trash. And you actually have the nerve to participate in this selection with us. It's a huge joke, don't you think?"
Her words were like a sharp knife, piercing Liao Tingyan's vital points. However, Liao Tingyan did not look embarrassed as everyone expected.
"That's right, what ability does she have? She just relies on her pretty face!" Someone in the crowd immediately echoed and joined the pink-shirted woman in humiliating Liao Tingyan even more fiercely.
If most people heard such words, they would probably blush and feel ashamed, but Liao Tingyan was not like that.
She is a modern person who is extremely indifferent at heart. She has no interest in the palace fighting dramas full of intrigues and deceptions, and finds them too tiring.
So, when she heard the ridicule from the pink-shirted woman and others, she didn't think about it at all, and naturally she wouldn't delve into the deeper meaning.
In her ears, these people did not seem to be humiliating her, but were praising her for her good looks!
Therefore, Liao Tingyan was not angry at all. Instead, he smiled a little embarrassedly and responded politely: "Thank you, you are so nice to hear! Hehe..."
She lowered her head and smiled, which immediately attracted people's attention.
"You...what are you talking about? Who said you are pretty?" The man looked incredulous, feeling overwhelmed by Liao Tingyan's appearance. He was clearly scolding her, but he didn't expect that the man would just listen to her saying that she was pretty. How stupid!
When the onlooker Lin Jiu saw this, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart that her fellow villager was really amazing, it was simply 666!
As expected, what can often overcome malice is innocence (or stupidity).
Looking at the two female cultivators who were so angry that they couldn't speak, their faces flushed red, Lin Jiu felt that he had made the right decision to come here, it was so cool!
Just as the atmosphere in the room was becoming tense due to Liao Tingyan's words, and the conflict was about to escalate...
Suddenly, things took a turn for the better.
It turned out that Shi Qianlu and the masters of the eight palaces appeared at this time.
"...Everyone, sit here quietly, open your mind, and wait for good news. The selection is about to begin." Shi Qianlu's voice was calm and gentle, as if it had a magical power that made people feel at ease.
Then everyone present fell silent, bowed in the direction of Shi Qianlu and the masters of the eight palaces, and then meditated and released their spiritual thoughts.
The crowd of people sat on the ground in unison, as if they were under a spell, with their eyes closed, meditating quietly.
The scene was like a quiet lake, without a ripple, except for the occasional breeze that made a few strands of hair flutter.
However, among this seemingly uniform crowd, there are one or two outliers that stand out.
Lin Jiu was one of them. She sat cross-legged on the ground. Unlike others, her eyes were not closed, but slightly open, looking ahead thoughtfully.
Lin Jiu's gaze fell on Liao Tingyan not far away.
Liao Tingyan was sitting upright, but his head was shaking left and right like a rattle, his big eyes rolling around, looking at the people around him curiously.
She looked at this person, then at that person, her face full of confusion and helplessness.
When Lin Jiu saw this, he immediately understood.
This fellow must have just come here, otherwise why would he be so unfamiliar with all this and not even know how to do basic meditation?
Just as Lin Jiu was thinking to himself, suddenly, a clear bird song broke the silence.
Everyone opened their eyes and looked in the direction of the sound, only to see a dazzling fire phoenix rushing towards them like a burning flame. It circled and danced in the air, its body agile, its feathers gleaming with colorful light in the sunlight.
As the fire phoenix circled, rich spiritual energy rained down on the scene. Seeing this, everyone's faces showed anticipation and joy.
