Chapter 661: 661
After the bath, Jiang Chen took Lil Fan to see the two women, who were
having tea .
"Why did the bath take you so . . . "
Yi Chen started to complain right away, but she stopped as soon as she saw
Jiang Chen's face .
Jiang Chen had looked like a beggar . Although his fine features still could be
vaguely seen, Yi Chen hadn't been in the mood to appreciate them .
By then his ragged clothes had been off . After the bath, his appearance had
totally changed .
He's so handsome!
Even Wen Xin thought the same .
Jiang Qingyu and Gao Yue were both pretty people . It was natural for their
son to be good-looking, too . Besides, Jiang Chen's introvert character and
deep look didn't make him any similar to a countryman .
"Lil Fan, is he really from your village?" Yi Chen asked involuntarily .
"No . Big brother is from the sky . He came with thunders and lightning," Lil Fan
said right away .
He told the truth, but it was beyond the two women's imagination . As a result,
they didn't take it seriously .
"Great . So, he won't embarrass us . "
They started to walk again . Yi Chen was much nicer to Jiang Chen . She was
extremely enjoying the looks from passerbys .
"You don't have to be a servant when we return to the Clear Spirit Sect . I can
find you a job as a steward," Yi Chen said .
Jiang Chen shook his head, smiling bitterly . He sighed about the importance
given to appearance .
Then something occurred to him suddenly . He said, "Have we already
arrived?"
"Yes . The Ancient Sword Sect is on that mountain . "
Leaving the city through another city gate, they saw a wide road paved with
flagstones .
As they walked ahead, more and more practicers came into Jiang Chen's
sight .
Most of them were Reaching Heaven States, who had just landed on the
road .
Out of the respect for the Ancient Sword Sect, they didn't fly onto the
mountain directly .
Jiang Chen felt like he was a part of the river flowing into a sea when they had
been at the mountain gate, since people stretched as far as the eye could
see .
"Will they invite us to the Heavenly Mountain Platform?"
"I think so . "
"Then we'll see Apprentice Brother Song . "
The two women were talking in a low voice .
There were so many people coming for the birthday party . The Ancient Sword
Sect wouldn't look after all of them . Some of them wouldn't even get the
chance to meet the protagonist of the birthday party .
The Heavenly Mountain Platform was like VIP seats .
Whether one could get invited onto it depended on three things .
Identity, sincerity and talent .
The identity referred to whether the guest was a Venerable . Venerables didn't
have to land outside the sect . They could just fly into the Ancient Sword Sect .
The talent referred to whether the guest was a young genius . That was what
all forces valued .
As to the sincerity, it referred to the present . It was human nature to attach
importance to presents .
Wen Xin and Yi Chen were kind of talented, but they weren't the best . They
hadn't thought about getting invited to the Heavenly Mountain Platform at all
in the first place .
However, after an exchange of look, they walked towards the mountain gate
excitedly .
Only two kinds of people had to wait in the queue . The first kind was those
who wanted to prove their talent .
The other kind was who wanted to get their sincerity verified . They would give
their gifts to the Ancient Sword Sect . The sect would check the gifts one by
one .
Those who wanted to prove neither their talent nor their sincerity could go
inside directly .
Jiang Chen was disappointed at what he had seen . He had held high
expectations of the Ancient Sword Sect when he had first heard about it .
He wasn't aloof . The Over Cloud Palace would take gifts, too .
However, the Ancient Sword Sect's snobbishness was too obvious .
Staying in the queue, Jiang Chen found those who wanted to prove their
talents were all in the late stage of the Reaching Heaven State .
He was a little bit emotional since he felt he saw his old self in them .
Suddenly, three people swaggered over . Ignoring Wen Xin and Yi Chen's
angry look, they tried to jump the queue .
"Hey! You shouldn't jump the queue!" Yi Chen couldn't swallow it .
