Demons wreaked havoc on the world. Even though all the major immortal sects were on guard and sent people out at the first opportunity, they still couldn't avoid casualties in battles with the cunning demons.
Within a month after Ling Luo returned to the Tianji-governed area of Dongdao Island, she received news from all sides every day, such as where many people had died, where a demon had been encountered, where a powerful cultivator had entered the world, or where a certain independent cultivator had displayed extraordinary strength, etc.
There are many coastal villages in Tianji, Dongdao Island. The disciples are usually responsible for the sea monsters that attack the villages. Now that the patrol manpower has been increased, even the sea monsters have become much quieter.
As winter approaches, the weather turns colder and sunset comes earlier.
The sea water gently caressed the rocks, bringing the ships safely back from their long journeys, and the fishermen quickly packed up their tools.
Lingluo followed the other disciples down from the boat, but felt cold on her face. She looked up and saw the first snow of early winter had arrived.
Xu Shen beside him stretched out his hand and said, "Oh, it's snowing."
"Why is it snowing? It's so cold." Chang Fei rolled his eyes and rubbed his arms.
Several junior sisters around me, because of the snow, shook off the fatigue of the sea patrol and started to chatter excitedly, occasionally stealing glances at several senior brothers.
Yu Xiu had a jade flute on his waist and was talking to Ling Luo as they walked:
"The number of demon attacks has increased. Master has been in the mountains setting up formations for seven days and hasn't come out. It looks like he'll have to stay in there for a while."
Ling Luo played with the cherry in her hand and said happily, "Second Brother, go see Master. I'll contact Senior Brother to see what's going on."
Yu Xiu nodded and said as he left, "Be careful when on guard tonight. I sensed the presence of the sirens before, and they are also being influenced by the demons and are ready to make a move."
The new moon has risen above the sea, and it is half-mooned, quietly watching the sea of clouds and the world passing by.
Lingluo stood on the beach, squinting her eyes at the distant sky. Fine snow fell on her hair and quickly melted away quietly.
When receiving orders from the mountain sect, the disciples outside all wear the sect's uniforms.
Several fellow apprentices who came out of the village looked towards the seashore and saw a beautiful figure standing quietly in the snow under the moon. She was wearing a white dress embroidered with gold patterns, which was elegant and exquisite, making her look unattainable.
Lingluo was lowering her head and listening to the message from Yu Ting.
Yue Liangze: "I arrived at Dianhuazhou tonight and met people from Nanshan Xuehe on the way."
"Don't be unlucky enough to run into its eldest young master."
Yue Liangze: “…”
It seems that we have met.
Ling Luo: "You are so unlucky."
Yue Liangze told her: "His cultivation has improved, and his magic and sword skills have reached a new level."
Lingluo didn't take it seriously, but she remembered that Yue Liangze once went to Nanshan Snow River alone to challenge Feng Yunhong.
Feng Yunhong, who was so arrogant and was known as the world's strongest swordsman, lost when he used his magical sword skills to fight against Yue Liangze.
From that day on, the title of Sword Saint was taken away by Yue Liangze.
But why would this guy challenge Feng Yunhong for no reason? He even specifically asked to fight against the divine swordsmanship. Isn't he very indifferent to fame and fortune?
He doesn't seem to care much about swordsmanship.
When Ling Luo was distracted, she heard footsteps. Someone was approaching her. A clear and clean voice came to her ears: "Senior Sister, it's cold outside because of the snow. This is for you."
She looked back and saw Chang Fei, who was not far away, shouting over here: "Junior Brother Dinglan! Your direct disciple is here! Why don't you hand your brother the umbrella first!"
Xu Shen, Ding Lan's direct disciple, nodded.
The boy called Junior Brother Dinglan seemed to have used up all his courage when he spoke to Lingluo. When Chang Fei called him that, his fair face instantly turned red. Facing Lingluo's bright eyes, he stammered, "I, I'll get an umbrella for you, Senior Brother."
"No need." Ling Luo held the umbrella handle and walked towards Chang Fei and Xu Shen.
Xu Shen took the umbrella, covered the other two people, and then said to Ding Lan, "Thank you."
Ding Lan: “…”
Stunned.
Chang Fei smiled and held Xu Shen's shoulder, turned around, took out the jade earrings and said, "This kind of thing must be told to Senior Brother, so that he has a sense of crisis. Our Senior Sister Ling is very popular."
Ling Luo receives a routine report from Muxujing.
Mu Xujing: "There are sixteen pots in total, and eight of them have sprouted."
Lingluo: "Where are the other eight pots?"
Mu Xujing: "It has rained heavily for the past two days. He must have drowned."
Ling Luo: “…”
Is this how you grow flowers?
Mu Xujing: "The sprouting flower sent you a transfer picture."
Ling Luo looked at this sentence with deep eyes. Before she could reply, she heard another reply from the other party: "I forgot that Tianji's Yu Ting couldn't receive the painting."
Ling Luo: “…”
ha.
Do you plan to live only today?
After sending the message, Mu Xujing felt happy. He was sweating from moving flower pots to avoid the rain, so he raised his hand to wipe it off and went into the house to eat dinner as the old man called him.
It turns out that distance dilutes fear.
Ling Luo heard Chang Fei sending a text message and muttered, "Why can't our Yu Ting send a picture message? Shouldn't the Wanxiang magic array be improved?"
Ling Luo snorted, "Tianji's trash."
The other two felt their scalps tingling after hearing this.
Lingluo was thinking about how to deal with Muxujing when Yue Liangze sent her a message: "Is it snowing?"
"It's not big, but it's beautiful." After saying that, she wanted to show Yue Liangze the snowy scenery on the sea. She pointed the jade ear at the sea, only to find that she couldn't send a picture. Ling Luo cursed again, "The elders are a bunch of rubbish!"
To prevent her from cursing for the third time, Xu Shen raised his hand and cast a silencing spell around him.
"The snow season is long. Do you need an umbrella?" Yue Liangze asked her. "I'll buy one when I come."
Ling Luo couldn't help but glance at Chang Fei, and Chang Fei gave her a thumbs up with a bright smile.
"I need you." Lingluo sent it without blushing or beating her heart.
Yue Liangze pursed his lips after seeing this.
He didn't know if this woman really missed him. Anyway, every time he saw a similar message, he wanted to fly on his sword to find Lingluo.
But what was finally sent out was: "I'm going to buy an umbrella."
Ling Luo went to find Yu Xiu, "Second Senior Brother, there are many demon brothers and sisters that we haven't seen yet. Let Master urge the elders to upgrade the Jade Listener and Transmission Painting as soon as possible. It would be best if we can do it tomorrow!"
Yu Xiu was a little embarrassed: "Master is busy guarding the formation, he shouldn't be distracted to take care of the Wanxiang Formation."
Ling Luo: "Then you should act like a spoiled child to Master!"
Yu Xiu: “…”
This trick will only work if you use it!
Lingluo looked at him with an expression of trust, as if to say, "Second Senior Brother, you can definitely do it."
Yu Xiu sighed.
The next day, Tianji Yuting was upgraded and could transmit sound and pictures, and all the disciples were ecstatic.
It snowed all night. After Lingluo learned about it from Chang Fei, she saved two pictures of snow scenes in her jade earphone and sent them to Yue Liangze.
Yue Liangze: "Can Yu Ting pass on paintings?"
Ling Luo narrowed her eyes and immediately sent dozens of messages to Mu Xujing.
"Yu Ting can't accept the painting?"
"You know what to do now that we can collect it today, right?"
"Since you wanted to send me the flower pots and pictures so much, I reluctantly watched every day how you took care of the fragile seedlings."
"If you miss a day or if you kill me, I will kill you at Mt. Amaterasu."
Mu Xujing, who just got up: "..."
I haven't woken up yet.
He fell back onto the bed.
Lingluo was standing in front of the house, sending a message to Yue Liangze, when she heard Junior Brother Dinglan calling her, "Senior Sister! Do you want to have breakfast?"
The young man with a clean and shy smile in the snow made Lingluo feel dazed for a moment.
She finally remembered this junior fellow apprentice.
This unlucky guy was killed after being seen by Yun Shouxi when he confessed his love to her.
Ding Lan held up the bowl and said, "These are all foods brought from the mountain gate vegetarian hall, and there is also cod soup sent by the villagers."
"Would you like to eat with me, Senior Sister?"
Lingluo: "You eat first, I'll go call my brothers to join us."
"Okay, I'll save some for you, senior sister." Ding Lan turned around with a smile.
Lingluo didn’t think there was anything wrong with being liked before. There were so many people who liked her, and it wasn’t her fault that these people didn’t respond.
But this feeling of love should not be trampled upon and insulted.
Lingluo went to have breakfast with Chang Fei and Xu Shen. Dinglan, who couldn't fit in with the trio, was silent, but the senior brothers were very caring towards him, asking about his well-being while joking with him.
The next night, Yun Shouxi came back from the mountain. The demons were eliminated and the formation to protect the safety of mortals was set up. Due to the excessive energy consumption, he looked a little tired.
It was snowing at night, Lingluo was patrolling the seaside, the bright moon was high in the sky, reflected in the azure sea, making her feel strangely out of place in this place.
As she walked towards the shallow sea, she heard Yun Shouxi calling her from behind: "Lingluo."
Ling Luo turned around: "Master?"
Seeing Yun Shouxi coming over, she stood up obediently: "Master has consumed a lot of spiritual energy recently, why don't you take a rest?"
Yun Shouxi said gently: "Come and see you."
"Would you like to eat something?" Lingluo asked again.
Yun Shouxi shook his head, and Lingluo said, "I'll get you an umbrella."
She had only taken two steps when Yun Shouxi grabbed her wrist and took her towards the sea.
"Master?" Lingluo asked pretending to be confused.
"Accompany me to watch the moonlight tonight." Yun Shouxi said softly.
He released his spiritual power and transformed it into dancing fireflies surrounding the two of them. He walked steadily on the sea with Lingluo. The villagers who saw this scene behind him opened their eyes wide in shock.
Yun Shouxi walked leisurely, seemingly without any purpose, but he was walking further and further away.
He lowered his eyes to look at the deep sea below him and asked Ling Luo: "Is it beautiful?"
Lingluo: “Beautiful.”
Yun Shouxi said: "Spiritual power exists in the heaven and earth. Ordinary people cannot see or sense it. Only those with spiritual veins can get a glimpse of it. In this vast world, spiritual power can be seen everywhere and is endless. However, looking back at the cultivation world for thousands of years, no one has only seen a little bit of it."
Heaven and earth only use that tiny bit of spiritual power to support the entire cultivation world.
Lingluo's jade earphone rang, but because one of her hands was held by Yun Shouxi, and he was talking about topics related to cultivation, she did not take it.
Yun Shouxi raised his head and looked at the new moon behind the black cloud: "The spiritual power nurtured by heaven and earth, the only ones who can sense its existence are humans and monsters."
He looked sideways at Lingluo and asked, "Why do cultivators have to exorcise demons?"
Lingluo's earphones began to hum. She answered calmly, "Because I protect the order of the human world."
Yun Shouxi raised his eyebrows slightly: "Is that all?"
Lingluo knew the answer he wanted, but pretended not to know and looked back at him blankly.
Yun Shouxi: "Your second brother knows it all at once."
"That's because Second Senior Brother is so capable." Ling Luo said confidently.
Yun Shouxi smiled dotingly, "Because each of them is afraid that the other will take away their own spiritual power, especially when they are practicing in the same area. If one of them does not make any progress in his cultivation over a long period of time, he will suspect that someone else has taken away more spiritual power, making it impossible for him to obtain it."
"The cultivation methods of all the monsters are different, but the most basic and necessary spiritual power of heaven and earth is the same as ours."
Ling Luo wanted to retract her hand to pick up the ringing jade bell, but seeing that Yun Shouxi had no intention of letting go, she changed to her other hand to pick it up.
Yun Shouxi glanced at her casually.
"So when we kill monsters, our cultivation will be enhanced, and vice versa?" Ling Luo responded to Yun Shouxi's teaching while looking down at Yu Ting.
Good job.
Mu Xujing sent her dozens of transmissions, no wonder Yu Ting kept ringing.
Yun Shouxi smiled and said, "Except for demons, the spiritual veins required by humans and monsters are the same."
Ling Luo blinked when she heard this.
I didn't think there was anything wrong with it before, but now it sounds weird.
She raised her head and looked at Yun Shouxi, meeting his gentle eyes.
Is it because humans and demons share the need for the spiritual power of heaven and earth that it was so easy to exchange her spiritual vein with that of the demon?
Ling Luo curled her lips, and when she saw the message sent by Yue Liangze, she put away the jade listening device and asked Yun Shouxi with a smile: "Master, if the spiritual veins of a cultivator are exchanged with those of a demon, what will happen to this person?"
