Chapter 60 Visitors
Logically speaking, they should have already joined the sect and communicated with the members, which should have been enough. However, the problem is that the Immortal Sect has far too few members, even fewer than a small family.

That's why they were specifically asked to apply for the Alchemy Association, the Talisman Association, and the Weapon Association. This way, they could better understand their own and others' levels, and knowing the gap would help them improve.

Du Yue and Meng Ling were both temporarily unavailable, one busy refining a breakthrough pill and the other working on a new magic weapon, so only Hu Jiu went ahead today, just to scout things out.

The result went quite smoothly, and the guild immediately approved and accepted the offer.

“Not bad, not bad. You should go there every few days to exchange ideas with other talisman masters and make some like-minded friends,” Liu Feng said with a smile.

Hu Jiu hesitated for a moment, but still agreed.

"What's wrong? Is there a problem?" Xu Yihan noticed something was amiss.

"It's not a problem, it's just..."

Liu Feng understood. "Do they have some other opinions about you?"

Hu Jiu is a disciple of the Xianlai Sect, but this identity is not a plus, but a minus.

Moreover, he didn't have a proper master and was a beginner, so he stepped on almost every landmine.

Most of the talisman masters in the Talisman Association are from prestigious families, or at least have been in the business for many years, unlike Hu Jiu who has only studied for a few months.

So just imagine how cold looks and ridicule he would face when he first arrived.

"Hmm." Hu Jiu tacitly agreed, "But it's alright. I'm usually still in the sect, and I only go there occasionally. I don't have much interaction with them."

What are you afraid of? If they look down on you, just use your abilities to make them admire you!

Mo Jiuwei suddenly became excited.

[If there's not much interaction between us, what's the point of going to the Talisman Gathering? We'd be better off staying in our Immortal Sect!]

Since you're going, learn as much as you can, ask as many questions as you can, and exchange ideas with them. Let them know that you're no less capable than them, and then there will be no ridicule or contempt.

Others may feel superior to Hu Jiu, but that's just a matter of preconceived notions. Mo Jiuwei, having gone through eight reincarnations, understands people's hearts all too well.

When people first meet and interact, they subconsciously give each other an evaluation.

What is their family background, appearance, cultivation level, ability, temperament, and whether they are difficult to approach?

For most people, if the other party is clearly better than themselves, they will be more humble when facing them. However, if the other party seems inferior in every way, they will feel superior and inevitably look down on them.

But what you see at first glance is only the exterior, which is extremely superficial. The real impression will gradually change after you get to know the person.

In other words, within the Talisman Master Guild, as long as Hu Jiu has the strength, even those who previously looked down on him will change their opinion of him.

Mo Jiuwei felt that Hu Jiu had the ability.

Hu Jiu was taken aback upon hearing this, and then unconsciously straightened his chest.

"...I will perform well in the future and make sure they know that I am capable and no worse than them!" he added.

Mo Jiuwei was greatly pleased.

That's right, that's how it should be!

I've watched you all improve step by step to where you are now; do you think I don't know your skill level?

[Just go for it!]

Meng Ling and Du Yue seemed to be deep in thought after hearing this.

They were actually a little afraid of joining a guild, and over the years they had only been close to people from their own sect, rarely interacting with outsiders.

When the Immortal Sect went through some difficult times, many people in Purple Leaf City knew about it. If they heard that they were disciples of the Immortal Sect, their first reaction would be either sympathy or ridicule.

They don't like being looked at with strange eyes.

But now, hearing Mo Jiuwei say this, I feel that there is some truth to it.

Forget about sympathy and ridicule. As long as you live well and are capable, who knows who will sympathize with whom in the future! So the two of them said one after the other, "Then let's go tomorrow too."

Xu Yihan smiled and agreed, then thought of something:
"By the way, Xue Chu and Xue Qu have already replied via telepathy. They will be returning to the sect in the next few days. I will let you know when they arrive."

"Yes!"

Mo Jiuwei lived a life of eating and sleeping, and then suddenly found that her appetite had increased.

Starting in the last few days, she has been eating significantly more than before, otherwise she will be too hungry to sleep.

That day, she felt hungry again and was thinking to herself that she wanted to eat something when she saw Chen Lan come over and pick her up.

"We have guests at the clan. Come on, let me introduce you," Chen Lan said with a smile.

Mo Jiuwei was curious.

[Guests? What kind of guests?]

We haven't seen any guests in so long! Is this person male, female, old, or young?

Chen Lan found it amusing, but didn't explain it to her, because Mo Jiuwei soon saw the person who had arrived.

It was a young couple with a son who was about two years old, and they were looking around the main hall.

Ji Qingqing and Yi Xingyun were keeping them company, pouring them tea, and were talking at the moment.

Upon seeing Chen Lan and Mo Jiuwei approach, they stopped talking and looked over at each other.

"Ru Ning, Jiang Fang," Chen Lan called out their names with a smile. "Look, this is Jiu Wei."

"Come quick, let me see."

The female cultivator named Ru Ning had a slender face and a bright smile. She got up and walked to Chen Lan's side, looking curiously at Mo Jiuwei.

Upon closer inspection, he was met with Mo Jiuwei's exquisitely beautiful face.

"Wow, what a pretty girl!" she couldn't help but exclaim. "She looks so cute, is her name Jiuwei?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Lan felt as sweet as if she had eaten honey, "Yes, just as cute as your Xuan'er."

Ru Ning covered her mouth and laughed, then waved to her son, "Xuan'er, come here, look at the pretty girl."

Xuan'er was eating pastries over there, grabbing two in each hand and stuffing her mouth full of them, her face bulging out.

Hearing his mother's words, he continued eating, then put his hand in his mouth before getting up and walking over. He swallowed so quickly that he almost rolled his eyes back.

Chen Lan lowered Mo Jiuwei a little so that he could see her more easily.

"Oh, a chubby little girl!" He laughed as soon as he saw her.

He hadn't fully swallowed what was in his mouth while he was speaking, and when he laughed, some crumbs of pastry sprayed out, which unfortunately landed on Mo Jiuwei.

Ugh! It's so dirty!

[Also, who's the chubby girl? I'm not fat!]

Mo Jiuwei was so disgusted she almost cried.

Fortunately, Chen Lan reacted quickly and cast a cleansing spell, rescuing Mo Jiuwei in time.

But her subconscious action made Xuan'er's mother frown and her smile fade.

"Eat slowly, are you choking? I'll get you some tea," Ru Ning said with concern.

The boy's father, Jiang Fang, quickly handed him some tea, saying, "Drink some quickly, don't choke."

Neither of them cared about Mo Jiuwei, nor did they apologize for their son's rude behavior, as if nothing had happened.
