The smile on the Huayang Sect Master's face convinced many that the disciple who received the inheritance must be Ruan Xinrou.
In addition, Ruan Xinrou deliberately released her pseudo-core realm aura before participating in the trial, which made many people aware of her strength.
The sect leaders of the other sects sighed slightly:
"It seems that it really could be Ruan Xinrou from the Huayang Sect."
"That young girl has already reached the Pseudo-Core Realm at such a young age, it's not surprising that she was chosen by the Brahma Immortal Venerable! It seems that another terrifying figure is about to emerge in the Central Continent!"
"I'm so envious! How lucky is the Huayang Sect to have produced such a disciple. If they could obtain the inheritance of the Brahma Immortal Venerable, the entire sect would benefit!"
Everyone went to congratulate Sect Master Huayang. Hearing their congratulations, Sect Master Huayang said modestly, "They may not necessarily be disciples of our sect; they could be from other sects."
But while he said that, he was secretly overjoyed. After all, besides Ruan Xinrou, he couldn't think of anyone else who could catch the eye of the Brahma Immortal Venerable!
Previously, their sect was always overshadowed by the Lingxiao Sect, and they could only watch helplessly as the Lingxiao Sect produced a prodigy like Murong Jin.
Even Murong Jin couldn't unlock the inherited treasure! Yet Ruan Xinrou obtained it!
The Huayang Sect Master was excited just thinking about it. He couldn't wait to announce it to the world!
He said to the elders beside him, "After you return, immediately have people prepare. I want to hold a celebration for Ruan Xinrou. I want every disciple in our sect to know that Ruan Xinrou has obtained the inheritance treasure! I will personally reward her then!"
The elder was also extremely excited. "Alright, I promise to make the celebration a grand and lively affair!" With that, he hurried off to the sect.
The Huayang Sect Master looked around at the people with a smug expression, feeling extremely pleased. Choosing Ruan Xinrou back then was indeed the right decision.
His eyes were fixed on the exit of the Shadow Valley Trial.
The Shadow Valley Trial ended early, and all the disciples will emerge from here. Except for the disciples whose life tablets have been used to eliminate the dead disciples, the remaining disciple will surely be the successor left behind by the Brahma Immortal Venerable.
Although the Huayang Sect Master was convinced that the successor must be Ruan Xinrou, he couldn't help but feel nervous.
He watched as his disciples walked out one after another and onto the plaza at the exit, his heart pounding in his chest.
However, to the Huayang Sect Master's surprise, the disciples who came out of the exit of their Huayang Sect were either dead or wounded, suffering heavy losses. His brows furrowed immediately.
Xiao Yu and Gu Qingzhou were seriously injured and had to be carried out of there. Yang Yu was disfigured, and half of his body was torn away. The scene was utterly gruesome.
It turned out that after Bai Ying went to the Spirit Herb Garden, the Spirit Ape immediately sought revenge on these people.
This time, without Bai Ying's help to kill them, they suffered heavy casualties.
Only Yuan Shijie remained unharmed because he was standing in the formation Bai Ying had given him; everyone else was severely injured.
The cultivator who had previously criticized Bai Ying for not taking action was killed by the spirit ape's claws.
It was horrific; it was a massacre.
They were filled with regret at that time. They should have apologized to Bai Ying. Bai Ying had the means to protect Yuan Shijie, so she could naturally protect them as well.
But after Bai Ying saved them, they even scolded her, and no one apologized to her.
Their deaths were entirely self-inflicted.
When the sect leader of Huayang saw how serious the losses were, his face immediately darkened.
Fortunately, an elder next to him said, "Don't be afraid. As long as Ruan Xinrou inherits the treasure, there will be as many pills as she wants. Give them the pills and they will recover. Even if they don't recover, it's okay. We can use those pills to train more disciples."
After hearing this, the Huayang Sect Master felt much better.
Before long, most of the disciples had come out.
Only two people were slow to come out.
One is Ruan Xinrou, and the other is Bai Ying.
The Huayang Sect Master's eyes lit up even more. He even clenched his fingers into a fist with excitement.
The people from the Lingxiao Sect also whispered to their sect leader, Master Yuxiao:
"Could the successor be Bai Ying?"
Master Yuxiao frowned, then nodded seriously, "That's possible."
After all, others might not know, but everyone in the Lingxiao Sect knew that Bai Ying possessed the strength of the late Golden Core stage, and she also had remarkable alchemy skills.
The possibility that Bai Ying was chosen by Master Fantian is indeed very high.
However, Master Yuxiao knew that anything was possible. Although he was also full of anticipation, he did not boast about it like Sect Master Huayang. He simply answered his disciples in a low-key manner.
The Huayang Sect Master couldn't help but laugh when he heard the conversation between the Lingxiao Sect members.
Even Qin Hua Zhenren couldn't help but roll his eyes.
"Let's not even talk about Bai Ying's cultivation level. She doesn't even know what alchemy is. How could she possibly be favored by an alchemist like Brahma Immortal Venerable? It's just wishful thinking."
Master Yuxiao glanced at Master Qinhua with some surprise. He hadn't expected that Master Qinhua, who had once been Bai Ying's master, knew so little about her.
He didn't explain anything, but the others took Qin Hua Zhenren's words to heart.
Since Bai Ying doesn't even know how to refine pills and her cultivation level is low, then Ruan Xinrou must be the one who inherits the legacy.
Some perceptive sect leaders immediately walked over to Sect Leader Huayang.
He quickly took out a treasured item he had kept for a long time and handed it to Sect Master Huayang: "This is a congratulatory gift for my junior sister Ruan. It's to celebrate her obtaining the inherited treasure!"
Seeing his reaction, someone quickly took out a gift and went over, saying, "This is a rare medicinal herb I collected a hundred years ago. It's perfect for Junior Sister Ruan to refine into a top-grade pill! I'm sure she'll be able to make it into a top-quality elixir!"
The Huayang Sect Master couldn't stop smiling when he saw so many congratulatory gifts. "I already said, it might not necessarily be Ruan Xinrou."
"Who else could it be but Ruan Xinrou?"
Everyone burst into laughter, and Sect Master Huayang, overwhelmed by their enthusiasm, reluctantly accepted the gifts.
Everyone is eagerly anticipating it.
They finally saw the last figure emerge from inside.
"It seems that Bai Ying has come out."
After all, everyone knows that Ruan Xinrou is unlikely to come out.
Everyone was chatting and laughing, but when they saw who came out, they were all stunned.
Because it was Ruan Xinrou who came out!
The sect leader of Huayang immediately stood up from his seat and shouted, "How is this possible?"
How could Ruan Xinrou have gotten out?
Shouldn't she be receiving the inheritance of the Brahma Immortal Venerable?
