Chapter 306
Bai Yu memorized that voice.
Even after she completely lost consciousness, she still didn't let go of the skirt she was holding.
Even though the bone-chilling cold emanating from the hem of his skirt caused frost to form on his hands, he still clenched them tightly.
This was his only salvation.
Ling Wu remained unmoved upon seeing this, the icy blue mark on her forehead still cold and piercing. She drew her sword and cut the hem of her skirt that he was tightly gripping.
However, her eyes remained light-colored, lacking the playfulness she displayed when she was in black robes, leading people to believe that she was doing this to make it easier to save him.
Before my eyes, the boy's brocade robe was already soaked in blood from dozens of sword wounds.
The wounds that covered his body had long since healed because of that pill, but scars still remained.
Her once lovely face now bears several grotesque marks running across her cheeks, making it difficult to feel any affection for her.
Ling Wu's spatial ring naturally contained pills that could restore skin to its original state, but Bai Yu was not worthy of it.
Although Bai Yu was not conscious at this moment, the demonic soul from the upper realm still existed in his mind.
Now that the demonic soul has just found a body, although it is hiding deep within Bai Yu's sea of consciousness, it will never let down its guard and must be secretly watching her.
Thinking of the help he would give Bai Yu in the future, Ling Wu released her spiritual power and, as expected, detected a very hidden demonic aura that was currently concealed in Bai Yu's sea of consciousness.
Ling Wu took out a blanket and covered Bai Yu with it. Then, with a cold expression, she bent down and hugged Bai Yu into her arms.
The demonic cultivator in Bai Yu's sea of consciousness was influenced by Bai Yu's emotions and was now paying close attention to Ling Wu's words and actions.
Seeing that she was not displeased, he was relieved. If she wanted to kill Bai Yu, he would probably be affected as well.
In his haste, he caught a glimpse of Ling Wu's face and was momentarily moved.
After cultivators temper their bodies with spiritual energy, they will shed their mortal physical forms.
After being nourished by spiritual energy, each of them had a superior appearance. Moreover, he came from the upper realm and had seen countless true immortals, but he could not find anyone who could compare with her appearance.
She explained that from now on, she would be an outer disciple of the Tianyi Sect.
Tianyi Sect...
There are many Venerable Ones who ascended from this place in the Upper Realm, and they all came from the Tianyi Sect.
The demon soul was thinking and was about to quietly withdraw the wisp of demonic energy that was spying on Ling Wu, but Ling Wu raised her hand and grabbed it!
Her light blue sleeves slipped down slightly, revealing her slender wrists, but it was these slender wrists that completely immobilized the demon soul!
"A demonic cultivator?" The woman's voice was extremely cold and devoid of any emotion. As she finished speaking, her icy spiritual power tightly imprisoned the wisp of demonic energy.
The demonic soul was horrified.
Although he was a remnant soul at this moment, he still came from the upper realm.
But at this moment, even as he carefully used his secret technique, he was still caught by this woman from the lower realm with her bare hands!
Lingwu slowly closed her five fingers, but then finally released her hand.
Just as the demonic cultivator breathed a sigh of relief, Ling Wu decisively crushed it.
The demon soul couldn't catch its breath, and only remembered those cold, clear eyes before falling into a deep sleep.
Lingwu used her spiritual power to wipe away the demonic energy from her fingertips.
This demonic cultivator had once given Bai a lot of help, so these days he has been staying obediently in his sea of consciousness to nourish his soul.
So that when Bai Yu was being tormented by the outer disciples during this period, the demonic soul, unwilling to be humiliated, might instruct Bai Yu to harm the sect disciples.
Thinking of how arrogant this demonic soul was, and how it would surely come looking for her if it awoke again, Ling Wu slightly moved the icy blue spiritual power at her fingertips and sent it into Bai Yu's sea of consciousness.
After probing for a few moments, the traces of the demon soul were easily found. The icy blue spiritual power transformed into a mark and was injected into the demon soul's forehead.
The suffering Ji Lingwu endured was also orchestrated by the demonic spirit, and she would never let him die so easily.
Having done everything and freed herself from the demonic soul's gaze, Lingwu tossed Baiyu, whom she was holding in her arms, onto her sword and flew away on it.
She left the sect under the pretext of going home. The return of a great cultivator in the Tribulation Transcending stage who was less than two hundred years old caused a great commotion throughout the Ji family.
After meeting her parents, who were also cultivators, Lingwu also saw her newborn sister.
The little baby was very well-behaved, as if sensing the return of its blood relative, and reached out its little hand to grab Ling Wu.
While the rest of the Ji family worried about offending Ling Wu, Ling Wu took the initiative to extend her fingertips and let the small hand hold hers.
The baby giggled.
The tears that had been welling up in Ji's eyes when she saw Ling Wu were now wiped away, and her eyes were filled with a smile.
"Wu'er, give your little sister a name."
Ling Wu's face remained expressionless until the baby grasped her finger, at which point a faint smile appeared on her lips, a smile that softened her cold demeanor.
"May Ji Shihuan be blessed with good fortune and happiness in all things." Peace and joy were the only wishes her elder sister had for her.
Unfortunately, the entire family perished under Bai Yu's sword, leaving no trace of their remains.
Ironically, the sword Bai Yu used on the day he slaughtered the entire Ji family was a gift from Ji Lingwu.
Ling Wu stayed at the Ji family's residence for half a month before leaving amidst the reluctant gazes of Ji's parents.
Even Ji Shihuan, who only wanted Ling Wu's embrace whenever she was present, seemed to sense the sadness of parting, but still obediently held back her tears.
Now, Ji's parents were both saddened and amused, thinking, "This little girl will probably follow her sister everywhere from now on."
Tianyi Sect
With three months to go before the spiritual root test for recruiting disciples, Lingwu handed Bai Yu over to the outer sect elders upon returning to the sect.
Ji Lingwu is extremely cold-hearted, and there are almost no people in the entire Tianyi Sect who can talk to her. In addition, she is single-mindedly focused on cultivation. If she hadn't gone to find Bai Yu in advance, she would probably still be in seclusion and wouldn't have seen anyone.
The outer sect elder was suddenly handed a boy, and before he could even speak, he saw the elusive Half-Moon Peak Master explaining to him indifferently, "I found him."
The outer sect elder's breath caught in his throat. He was amazed by her beauty and even more shocked by the icy power emanating from her.
A two-hundred-year-old cultivator undergoing tribulation, what a genius!
"This...this...you're finally willing to take on a disciple!?" The elder could no longer maintain his dignified demeanor; his face was filled with excitement.
Ling Wu shook her head, then turned and left.
The elder was left holding Bai Yu, at a loss for what to do.
"The peak master took the initiative to bring a disciple back to the sect."
"So, does this 'Shaking Head' mean it doesn't accept apprentices at all, or is it just temporarily not accepting apprentices?"
He muttered to himself, unsure of what to do, and prepared to take Bai Yu to find the sect leader.
However, upon learning that the sect leader was in seclusion and would only emerge on the day he accepted disciples, he could only speculate.
He also wanted to find Ling Wu and ask her for clarification, but Ling Wu was powerful and aloof, making her unattainable.
Most importantly, he was afraid that if he asked one more question, she would not want to take him as a disciple, so he had no choice but to test Bai Yu's spiritual root first.
However, upon learning that Bai Yu possessed five spiritual roots, the elder's excitement and trepidation vanished.
Even the spirit servants in Tianyi Sect who do odd jobs must have at least four spiritual roots!
However, since it was Ling Wu's first time bringing disciples back to the sect, the elders still granted him the status of an outer disciple.
After that, aside from occasionally asking to confirm that he was still alive, I didn't pay any more attention to him.
After all, even the strongest peak master of Half Moon Peak in the entire cultivation world cannot defy the rules of heaven and earth and turn a piece of trash into a genius, right?
Moreover, who knows when Ling Wu will emerge from seclusion again, and she might not even remember him then.
However, because of this incident, he also began to look for a disciple with outstanding talent and a likable personality for Ling Wu. Especially when he thought about the disciple-acceptance ceremony in three months, his face was full of serious anticipation.
This time, we absolutely have to send her a disciple!
After confirming that Bai Yu's final destination was exactly as she had imagined, Ling Wu would only use her divine sense to monitor Bai Yu.
Seeing that he had not woken up, they ignored him.
Today, an uninvited guest has arrived at her cave dwelling.
