South Vietnam Kingdom.

July, hot.

The huge sun hung like a fireball over Lin'an County, emitting a rolling heat wave that twisted the air.

However, under such scorching sun, the people of Lin'an County all gathered near a high platform.

On the high platform, several figures dressed in uniform stood tall, resembling immortals in the eyes of mortals.

The immortal is taking disciples here today.

Once selected by immortals, one can become immortal.

Parents who have children of appropriate age at home do not want to miss this great opportunity to become immortals and send their children over for testing by immortals.

Bone age ten years old, fire, earth, gold, three spirit roots, qualified

With the immortal's loud announcement, a round and chubby little man walked up the platform with excitement on his face.

Oh, isn't that Wang Yuanwai's youngest son? He's so lucky to be chosen by the immortal

The crowd watching eagerly also began to discuss, exchanging words and revealing the origin of the chubby boy.

Silence

Just as the crowd's discussions grew louder, a young man carrying a sword on the high platform sternly scolded the audience.

Suddenly, all the discussions in the audience disappeared and became silent.

The young man carrying the sword waved his hand and stopped going to the crowd under the stands.

The testing has resumed.

In the crowd, a little girl dressed in a coarse linen skirt, with a pale face as paper and emaciated as if she could be blown down by a gust of wind. Her eyes were filled with determination, and she said to the man who was supporting her, "Dad, I'm going to test too

Yuxiu, your body

The man had a worried expression on his face, wanting to say something, but seeing the resolute look in his daughter's eyes, he couldn't help but choke up when the words reached his lips.

There is no other way to cure her daughter's illness. The most prestigious doctors in the county say that she has no medicine left and will not live for many years. Perhaps only the immortal can save her daughter.

If I miss this opportunity, my daughter may have to wait until she dies.

Okay, you have to be careful yourself

The worried man gave a few more instructions before letting go and letting the little girl go alone.

Under the scorching sun in the sky, the little girl struggled to take steps and moved towards the high platform.

She struggled to walk even just a dozen steps away.

Sweat had already seeped out from her forehead, and every step almost exhausted all her strength. Even so, she did not give up.

She still had a firm gaze, with no hint of wavering in her eyes.

Her name is Xu Yuxiu, and she comes from an ordinary background. Her parents both farm for Xu Yuanwai's family.

Due to the good cultivation of the land, I was fortunate enough to receive a reward from Mr. Xu and was given the surname Xu.

And she also followed suit and was given a spiritual name at birth, Yuxiu.

I thought our family's life would improve, but Xu Yuxiu has been suffering from a strange illness since birth and her health has been deteriorating.

Even the most prestigious doctor in Lin'an County couldn't tell what illness she had, and even said she didn't have many years to live.

Since she was sensible, Xu Yuxiu has never seen her parents laugh. Her father is busy in the fields every day, earning money to buy medicine for her, and her mother almost always has a worried face, sometimes secretly wiping away tears.

She saw all of these in her eyes.

She knew it was all her own illness, she hated her illness, she wanted to live, she didn't want her parents to be sad for her anymore, but she had no choice but to let her illness control her.

I was fortunate enough to meet a disciple of an immortal this time. I heard that immortals are omnipotent.

She thought to herself that even if she was not chosen by the immortal this time, she would still demand that the immortal cure her illness, so that her parents would no longer be sad for her and could be happy.

With this idea in mind, even the scorching sun above seems to be less scorching.

Next one

With the announcement of the immortal, Xu Yuxiu finally struggled to move in front of the immortal responsible for testing.

She also saw clearly the appearance of the fairy responsible for testing, who was like a fairy who had walked out of a painting and looked extremely beautiful.

The female cultivator responsible for checking bone age flashed a strange color in her eyes when she saw Xu Yuxiu standing in front of her.
