"Woo...... Grandpa, why did those stinky guys eat us?"

On the mountain, a girl with two pigtails and looked like she was only three or four years old asked aggrievedly, sobbing as she spoke.

At the foot of the mountain, the flames were splashing everywhere, and there was a mess, as if they had just experienced a big battle, and many cultivators were covered with spiritual light, going back and forth.

Around, many demon beast corpses lay horizontally, occasionally mixed with the corpses of one or two cultivators, which looked quite miserable, but these people around seemed to be used to it, and cleaned the battlefield in an orderly manner.

"Li'er, you are still young, there are some things that you can't understand now, your father died in the beast tide four years ago, and your mother also died three years ago when you were born, you just need to remember that if you want not to be eaten as food by those demon beasts, you can only work hard to improve your strength. Only strength is the foundation of everything!"

In front of the girl, an old man who looked to be sixty or seventy years old sighed, looked into the distance, seemed to be recalling something, and there was a smell of loneliness all over his body.

Hearing what the old man said, the girl stopped crying intermittently, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her sleeve and continued, "Well, I listen to my grandfather, I want to work hard to cultivate, and in the future, I will protect those people under the mountain like my father and mother, and I will kill many, many demon beasts!"

The girl's crisp voice echoed in the mountains, hearing the girl say this, the old man in front of him smiled, seemed to have recovered from the emotions just now, and looked at the girl's eyes full of love, "Hehe, our little Li'er has grown up and is sensible!"

"By the way, grandpa, tell me about the past, why did those demon creatures come to us 30,000 years ago?

Li'er seemed to think of something, raised her little face, and said completely ignoring the tears on her face.

"It didn't save us. Alas, these are all things that happened tens of thousands of years ago, and there are not many people who know about them now, and there are only some records of a few words in the ancient books of the sect. It is said that when the creatures of the Demon Domain broke through the spatial barrier and descended on the Xiling Demon Continent, although our Terrans said that they suffered heavy casualties, but those Demon Clans died more, if it weren't for that Demon Tribulation, our Terrans would have been slaughtered by the Demon Clan, and it was this Demon Tribulation that our Terrans could take a breath. But now that thirty thousand years have passed since the Demon Tribulation, these demon clans have also recovered their vitality!"

Hearing this, Li'er's delicate baby face was wrinkled into buns, her small fists were clenched, and she said with a very incomprehensible hatred, "Why did those Demon Realm creatures kill our Terran cultivators?"

"Alas, it was tens of thousands of years ago, who still knows the specific cause and effect, but I heard the previous generation of sect masters seem to have said that these demon realm creatures seem to be looking for something, and I don't know if it's true or not, forget it, it's all over, and it's useless to talk about it. It's windy on the mountain, come back with me, and you have to cultivate hard in the future and kill all these demon beasts that come to attack!"

The sound fades away and eventually drifts away with the wind!

The strength of the Cloud Sect is not strong, and the sect leader Yunyang is said to have reached the late stage of Jindan two years ago, and for such a "small island" with a population of barely one million, such strength is enough.

Perhaps it is the influence of the special geographical environment, the people here are highly respected for the cultivators of the Xianmen, in March and April every year, the mountain gate of the Cloud Sect is opened, at this time, many people will send their children to check their qualifications, if they can be lucky enough to have the spiritual root, they will be included in the door of the Cloud Sect, teach the cultivation method, and then embark on the road of immortality.

For the people here, guarding the "island" is undoubtedly an extremely honorable thing. Therefore, even if the beast tide breaks out every few years, many cultivators will die, it still can't stop the enthusiasm of the people here to send their children to test their qualifications.

Survival and reproduction are the true portrayal of here.

Of course, the persecution of the external environment may also be an important reason.

Compared with the children of ordinary people, Jiang Li'er is undoubtedly much luckier, she was born in the Cloud Sect, she has a grandfather who is one of the six elders, and Li'er, who has been loved by thousands of people since she was a child, is a veritable little princess of the Cloud Sect.

Perhaps due to the early death of her parents, Li'er, who was only four years old, was already sensible, and she strictly followed her grandfather's instructions every day, meditating, warming her roots, and living a monotonous and fulfilling life.

Two years have passed in a flash.

Six-year-old Jiang Li'er is smart and pretty, not very old, but her body has a delicate atmosphere.

Of course, children at this age have just understood some simple truths, and are full of curiosity about the outside world, perhaps because of their identity, Jiang Li'er is also around them, and there are gradually more children of the same age, under the influence of these children, Li'er, who was originally quite quiet and indifferent, has gradually become lively and active, and after completing the basic homework every day, she will follow these children to run around the mountains, and gradually recover some children's nature.

"Sister Li'er, I heard that the sect has been recruiting disciples again recently, and if you are free today, why don't we go and have a look?"

The person who spoke was an eleven or twelve-year-old boy, named Cheng Yinglong, the oldest of these children, and his mind was also the most out-of-the-box.

Cheng Yinglong's father is a real power manager in the door, and his power is not small, perhaps because of his father's edification, this Cheng Yinglong is not very old, has a lot of thoughts, and is extremely keen on rights, after learning about Jiang Lier's identity, this Cheng Yinglong naturally had other thoughts, and every day he made a special trip to wait for Li'er to finish his cultivation, play together, and try his best to please.

Of course, the simple-minded Li'er only thinks that this Cheng Yinglong is a trustworthy big brother, hearing what Cheng Yinglong said, Li'er seems to be moved, but after thinking about it, she finally shook her head, "Grandpa said that the sect's recruitment of disciples is a big deal, let's not go, in case the rules in the door are broken, it will not be good!"

Hearing this, Cheng Yinglong's eyes rolled slightly, and he said with a smile, "What's the matter, we just take a look at it from a distance, and we haven't seen anything about recruiting disciples in the door, don't we want to see it?"

Cheng Yinglong said, looking at the children around him who were about the same age as six or seven years, these children were male and female, all of them were born and raised in the Cloud Sect, but the status of the parents was not as good as this Cheng Yinglong, seeing Cheng Yinglong's suggestive gaze, these children around him were clamoring at the same time.

"Yes, we grew up in the sect since we were children, and we have never seen the disciples recruited by the sect, so why don't we go and have a look?"

A chubby boy next to him, who looked like he was five or six years old, said, with a look of encouragement.

"Sister Li'er, Senior Brother Cheng has always been cautious in doing things, since Senior Brother Cheng said so, there must be no problem, let's go and see?"

On the left, a girl in a green skirt held Li'er's jade wrist and said, her voice was crisp and beautiful.

For a while, everyone continued to persuade them, and Li'er, who was still a little reluctant, suddenly moved, and turned her eyes to the right, "Ying'er, what do you say?"

Jiang Li'er turned her head and looked at the girl next to her, who looked six or seven years old, older than herself, but shorter than herself, and asked.

The girl is called Jiang Ying'er, originally not a native child of the Cloud Sect, two years ago the beast tide broke out, and the people of the whole village became the food of the demon beasts, and this Jiang Ying'er was the only one who survived, after being rescued by Jiang Li'er's grandfather, he found his spiritual root qualification, and brought it back to the sect, which was regarded as a companion with Jiang Li'er, and took the surname Jiang and Ying'er.

Although she is older than Li'er, perhaps because she is extremely shy, this Jiang Ying'er usually speaks little, hardly communicates with people, and is quiet and distressing, while Jiang Li'er acts more like a sister, she likes her little sister very much, and takes care of her a lot on weekdays.

Hearing Jiang Li'er ask herself, Jiang Ying'er's little face turned red, she looked at the gazes projected around her, her little head lowered fiercely, and she gently spit out a few words in her mouth, "I listen to Li'er!"

Hearing this, Jiang Li'er's delicate face showed a touch of helplessness, "Since this is the case, then we will take a look, but we can say in advance, we can only take a look from a distance, and we can't disturb the sect to recruit disciples." ”

As soon as Jiang Li'er's words fell, the seven or eight children around suddenly jumped up and cheered, and ran towards the place where the sect was tested together.
