Chapter 341 Protecting the Ling Family?
Ling Yanli looked at Ling Changge and laughed out loud: "As expected of a spiritual girl, she has already helped the world so quickly."
"grandfather!"
"Alright, alright, I won't tease you anymore." Ling Yanli walked forward and touched her hair, a trace of heartache flashing in his eyes. He knew how difficult it had been for Ling Changge to come this far. The pain of rebuilding her spiritual roots and dantian was unbearable for ordinary people. To become such a powerful person in such a short time, the effort she had put in was unimaginable. "Now that you have become a spiritual girl, this is an unchangeable fact. The road ahead is extremely dangerous. Grandfather cannot accompany you. You must be extremely careful on your own."
Seeing the worry in his eyes, Ling Changge felt warm in his heart.
This look was surprisingly similar to the one his grandfather gave him in his previous life.
"I know, don't worry." Ling Changge put her arm around him and said, "Your granddaughter is very smart! Only others will suffer."
"Oh, how can I be at ease?" He patted her hand: "Your parents are still missing. They haven't been heard from for so many years. I think they are no longer alive. If you have any more accidents..."
Ling Changge was stunned when she saw the tears flashing in his eyes.
"From the moment I knew you were a spirit girl, I was naturally happy, but even more worried and afraid. Ten thousand years ago, the spirit girl's soul was destroyed, and now you have become the spirit girl chosen by the heavens. I am afraid you will follow in her footsteps. I am an old man now, and life and death are no longer important. I have already lost your father, and I cannot lose you again."
When Ling Changge heard this, he felt as if a big hand was grabbing his heart, and even breathing felt a little painful.
How could she tell him that the person whose soul was shattered ten thousand years ago was herself?
If I tell him, this old man will probably never let me go to Jiuxiaotian.
As soon as he returned to the room, Ling Changge raised the corners of his lips slightly: "When did you come?"
Gu Junyao's figure slowly appeared, and he looked at Ling Changge with burning eyes.
Although she had a smile on her face, Gu Junyao was still keenly aware of her fluctuating emotions.
He didn't ask anything, but flipped his palm and a box of osmanthus cakes appeared in his palm.
As the sweet fragrance wafted in the air, Ling Changge's eyes lit up, and the scarlet color in his eyes eased a lot.
“Although it’s not fresh out of the pot, the taste should be the same.”
Ling Changge walked forward, took the osmanthus pastry from his hand, and took a bite.
It still tastes sweet and greasy.
Seeing how sweetly she was eating, Gu Junyao couldn't help but pick up a piece and put it in his mouth.
He frowned and regretted it again.
“Is this thing really delicious?”
Ling Changge was stunned when he heard this, then shook his head: "It can't be said to be delicious."
"Then why are you..."
"Life is too bitter. If I don't eat something sweet, won't I turn into a little coptis root?"
Hearing her say this, Gu Junyao felt that his question was a bit redundant.
He watched Ling Changge finish a whole piece of osmanthus pastry. Seeing that her mood seemed to have improved, a smile appeared in his eyes.
"When are you going to leave?"
"After settling the Ling family, I want to set off as soon as possible. The demons are rampant now, and they even dare to touch the Ling family. That so-called demon king or demon god of the demon clan, just wait for me. Sooner or later, I will catch him and skin him alive."
Hearing her say this, Gu Junyao felt a chill down his spine.
"The demons shouldn't come to the Ling family to cause trouble again." Gu Junyao said calmly, "If they dare to come again, they will be courting death."
Ling Changge looked at him and said with a smile, "How can you be so sure?"
Gu Junyao just smiled and said nothing.
At this time, in the gap between humans and demons, the boiling magma was steaming with mist, the air was constantly twisting, and a foul smell was coming. Countless low-level demons were walking back and forth, and many low-level demons gathered around the higher-level demons. A steady stream of demonic energy was being transported from the bodies of the low-level demons to the high-level demons.
At this moment, thunderclouds gathered in the sky, and all the demons raised their heads and looked at the black-robed man who appeared in the air.
"Meet the Great Protector!"
The man in black robe took a step forward, flipped his palm, and a wisp of demonic energy slowly appeared. In an instant, black demonic thunder in the thundercloud fell from the sky, the magma collapsed, and a huge mountain slowly rose from the bottom of the magma. The demons looked at this scene in shock.
"Pass on the order of Lord Shenzun!"
Feeling the tremor from the depths of their souls, all the demons knelt on the ground.
"From now on, demons are not allowed to absorb human spiritual energy during their cultivation, nor are they allowed to kill humans without authorization. Those who violate this order will be tortured by the demons and sent to the underworld."
Nether...the underworld!
Everyone's eyes were filled with fear.
The Netherworld is connected to the Demon World, but once a demon enters the Netherworld, they will never come back.
Tens of thousands of years ago, a guardian with extremely high cultivation accidentally fell into the underworld. In an instant, the jade token representing his life sign shattered.
From then on, everyone knew that the underworld was a place that could not be set foot on.
So, when they heard that they would be sent to the underworld if they broke the rules, their bodies couldn't help but tremble.
"I will follow the order of the Lord God."
Upon hearing this, Ye Wuji waved his hand and a black halo appeared above everyone's heads. Powerful demonic energy spread outward from the halo.
"This is a demon spirit. It can release demonic energy and help you practice."
"Thank you, God, thank you, Great Protector!"
The demons gathered here are those who survived the war ten thousand years ago by chance. There are not many of them, and the demonic energy produced by the demon spirits can support their cultivation.
With this evil spirit, they no longer need to rely on absorbing human spiritual power to improve their cultivation.
After Ye Wuji left, the demons greedily absorbed the demonic energy emitted by the demon spirit.
They almost cried with joy.
At night, a black figure appeared in the dense forest outside Jinling City. At the same time, Ling Changge, who had been asleep, suddenly opened his eyes.
Demonic energy!
Her figure disappeared in the room.
"God."
Gu Junyao's figure slowly appeared.
Ye Wuji said respectfully, "According to the Divine Lord's instructions, the demon spirit has been placed at the junction."
Gu Junyao nodded: "Have you found any trace of Xiao Shatian?"
"Replying to the God, we haven't found any trace of the Demon Lord. His soul has been damaged, so he must be hiding to repair his soul power. The body he found was also destroyed by you. I don't think he will appear again in the short term."
Gu Junyao nodded.
"God, what should we do next?" Ye Wuji thought for a moment. "The Spirit Girl's power has awakened. Since she is by your side, she will definitely not be on guard against you. I know you don't want to take advantage of others, so why not..."
"From today on, you are responsible for the safety of the Ling family."
"Yes, I will do my best to protect Ling..."
He stopped talking immediately, Ling family?
He protects the Ling family?
