After transmigrating to the world of immortal cultivation, Lin Xiu entered the Green Cloud Dao Sect, the leader of the five great immortal sects. He thought that he would open the path of immortal cultivation, but he fell into deep thought as he looked at the entrance examination. " The first question: If you cause trouble outside, it might affect the sect's reputation. How would you sever your relationship with the sect and shift the blame to the other four immortal sects?" " Second question: If the disciples of the other four immortal sects killed the demonic path and obtained extremely high prestige, how could they make others mistake them as disciples of the Green Cloud Dao Sect and attribute all the prestige to the sect?" " Third question: If you were a spy sent by a sect to the other four immortal sects, and you went to secretly learn peerless martial arts but were discovered, how would you safely bring the martial arts back?" "The above are all ifs. Please answer boldly." One day, in the world of the Nine Prefectures, resentful cultivators gathered at the Green Cloud Daoist Sect's mountain gate and asked them to hand over the spy who had secretly learned.
