Chapter 556 Selection
Ranran looked at Gu Fan's lost expression, thought about it and decided to comfort Fan’s evaluation of Shen Yanwen was correct.
Therefore, Shen Yanwen, who treats others with courtesy, would not stand idly by and watch the other person being sad. Ranran was just playing him.
Although she is now facing a group of people who don't know Shen Yanwen, no matter what kind of personality she plays Shen Yanwen, these people will not find it strange, and there will be no punishment mechanism for her if she doesn't perform well. Ranran still wants to try her best to restore Shen Yanwen's original appearance.
He deserves her like this.
This was Ranran’s first feeling after reading Shen Yanwen’s memory.
And she had no idea whether this world was different from the horror cave world she had experienced before. Wu Ning had hidden too many things from her.
What if after she leaves this world, Shen Yanwen's soul returns to his body... he will have to continue living.
She couldn't just leave a mess for others.
Who knew that it wouldn't matter if I didn't comfort her, but once I comforted her, the situation would get worse.
Bitterness appeared between Gu Fan's eyebrows, "Brother Yan Wen, you come to comfort me with such a face, which only makes me feel worse. Alas, I know that people who practice Taoism should not be too obsessed with appearance, but I just don't understand. We are all people who practice Taoism, how can there be so much difference..."
After saying that, he shook his head again, "No, no, I can't lose confidence now. Maybe the Saint Lady likes my plain looks. Yes, there is still a chance! Ah, I can already imagine that beautiful day!"
Gu Fan talked a lot, but Ranran didn't find it noisy. Instead, she felt happy that he stopped complaining about himself.
She sighed in her heart that Brother Gu Fan's admiration for the Saint Lady was beyond words.
In addition, some sentences in Gu Fan's words reminded her of the purpose of the Wushan selection. However, Gu Fan spoke quickly, and there was little connection between the sentences. Sometimes he said something here, and sometimes he said something there. Ran Ran didn't have time to think about it carefully, and the idea flashed through her mind.
"I'm really nervous. I never thought that someone like me would have the chance to meet the Saint Lady." Gu Fan looked at Wushan with a bright light in his eyes. He pressed his right hand tightly on his chest, as if his heart would jump out of there.
He kept talking non-stop, even more talkative than all the chatterboxes Ranran had ever seen combined, and he didn't give her any chance to interrupt.
His story started from how bad his family environment was, how he practiced hard to achieve his current level of cultivation, how fortunate he was to meet the selection standards of Wushan, and how much he admired the Saint.
It was a very incoherent statement, but Ranran still extracted some information.
For example, the Wushan selection is held once a year.
The first time couldn’t even be called a selection. It was just that the left envoy of the Demon Realm forcibly gathered some people and sent them to Wushan. The reason is currently unknown.
It is worth mentioning that the reputation of Demon World was very bad two years ago, and it has only started to improve in the past two years.
In the same year, Yun Daozi met the Saint Maiden. Yun Daozi recovered from his injuries and his cultivation level greatly increased. Many people believed that Yun Daozi was able to make such amazing progress because of the help of the Saint Maiden. For a time, countless aristocratic families and sects were ready to make a move.
The Demon Lord made an earth-shattering statement, saying: Yun Daozi's recovery was indeed related to the Saint Maiden. This was due to a practice method that the Saint Maiden had realized on her own, which required cooperation from others. This method was of great benefit to both parties, and the higher the degree of compatibility between the two, the better the effect.
When Ran Ran heard this, her gentle expression seemed to crack, and she could hardly maintain Shen Yanwen's usual expression. So, she actually got into the double cultivation selection team of this saint?! Ran Ran was actually very confused for a moment.
She asked herself that she had practiced in the mountains and experienced things down there, and even in her world she had faced the end of the world...
But she never expected that one day she would become a man in another world and participate in a female dual cultivation partner selection contest...
Ranran felt that this was the first time she felt so confused in all her years. She felt a little bit amused and helpless.
If this were the original owner of this body, Shen Yanwen, he would probably have the same reaction.
Shen Yanwen is such a traditional and conservative person that dual cultivation is something that needs to be kept under the table for him and cannot be discussed openly.
This is not only because he has been isolated from the world for a long time and cannot keep up with the rapid development and changes of the times, but also related to the concepts he has accepted since childhood.
His master was an old-fashioned person, so the child he taught was also an old-fashioned person.
The cultivators in Zhongzhou all advocate the practice concept of "the melting pot of heaven and earth". If the cultivators want to realize the great truth while in it, they must draw the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into their bodies and constantly cleanse themselves in order to obtain a pure body.
It is like forging iron in a furnace, which is tempered into steel over and over again. The process is not just physical suffering, but also the tempering of the mind.

Without a strong mind, one cannot achieve great things, as all practitioners know. Therefore, methods that can improve one's cultivation too easily are often considered to be unorthodox or even crooked.
This is not without reason. If one has great power but does not realize that power is hard-earned, it is easy to be careless when using power.
But the truth varies from person to person. We all know that among the famous Buddhists who are known for their austerity, there have also been bloodthirsty demons. And among the Hehuan sect, which specializes in the art of bewitching souls, there are also people as elegant as lotus.
In Shen Yanwen's mind, there is no distinction between high and low in various cultivation methods. As long as it is not a vicious method that kills innocent lives, there is no need to worry about whether it is easy or not. However, dual cultivation is really...
At least it shouldn't be so public...
Ran Ran looked around at the young men of all kinds present, and came to a similar conclusion as Shen Yanwen had experienced personally:
Nowadays, dual cultivation can actually form such a scale!
Ran Ran thought about the knowledge Shen Yanwen left in her mind...
I guess it's because Shen Yanwen hasn't come down the mountain for a long time, and his mainstream ideas have gradually changed. After all, in his memory, things like dual cultivation were not even talked about openly before.
Gu Fan looked at Ran Ran's expression and various behaviors, and couldn't help but ask: "Brother Yan Wen, do you know nothing about the Wushan selection?"
"It was my family who insisted that I come, and I..." Ranran showed an embarrassment on her face, feeling a little ashamed in her heart.
This guy named Gu Fan was pretty nice. At least he was warm and helpful. When he saw that she didn't understand something, he was willing to help her. But she lied to him again and again.
Ran Ran originally wanted to get away with it like this, but she didn't expect Gu Fan's reaction to be even bigger.
He just yelled, "You don't want to come?! Do you know how many people want to come but can't?!"
