In the transparent soul bead, a little purple light first appeared and quickly spread throughout the bead. The momentum was extremely strong and the light was piercing.
Seeing that the purple light was about to overflow, Xiang Sheng didn't care to be surprised, and immediately further suppressed the many auras that were stirring in his body.
Among them, the newly born icy aura was the most eye-catching. Fortunately, it was weak, and although the energy of the Breath-Concealing Technique was not much, it was still able to suppress it.
The Soul Testing Pearl stopped just a little short of perfection and moved its hand away from Xiang Sheng. Everyone around stared at the Soul Testing Pearl in shock, and no one noticed that she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Purple light overflows..."
Someone exclaimed quietly, "This is a top-grade spiritual root among top-grade ones. It's just one step away from being a super-grade spiritual root. If we can break this spiritual bead, our junior sister's spiritual roots will have to be retested."
"Junior Sister's spiritual roots are even stronger than Junior Brother Jian Jue's!"
"That's incomparable. Junior Brother Jian Jue has not only top-grade spiritual roots, but also a great talent for swordsmanship. Junior Sister is still a little behind Junior Brother Jian Jue..."
These people directly called Xiang Sheng "Junior Sister", as if they had already treated Xiang Sheng as one of their own family members.
Luo Qingyun felt complicated when she heard everyone cheering enthusiastically. She had long seen that Xiang Sheng had good talent, but she didn't expect him to be so top-notch.
After being away from the world of cultivation for ten years, is she going back?
She rubbed her cheek and sighed. She hoped the Wanjian Sect didn't know much about the Qianxing Palace. Even better... no one would recognize her.
Lin Hai came back to his senses and a bright smile appeared on his face: "Little Junior Sister, congratulations. When we set off tomorrow, we will take you and mother with us to the sect."
Xiang Sheng's eyes curved into a bright smile, and he took Luo Qingyun's hand and called out, "Mom, did you hear me? I mean what I say."
Luo Qingyun laughed and couldn't help but praise: "Sheng'er is the best."
Lin Hai looked at Xiang Sheng's smiling face with his head tilted to the side, and was a little stunned. The person in his memory had never had such pure and brilliant brightness.
She was always cold and aloof, and even when she was wearing another face, she was always silent and taciturn. After all, God was too cruel to her...
"Big Brother..."
Someone called out softly, and Lin Hai suddenly came back to his senses, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.
The scene brought back a lot of memories for him today, which he didn't usually recall.
After calming down, Lin Hai turned around and said loudly, "Rest here for one night and keep an eye out for any remnants of the Diyin Demon. Junior Brother Yu, take the lead and help repair the house."
Junior Brother Yu's earth element essence flowed through his body. Upon hearing this, he immediately smiled and said, "Don't worry, Senior Brother. I promise to repair the house before dawn."
Lin Hai nodded: "Everyone else, follow me to appease the mortals."
After saying this, Lin Hai turned to look at Luo Qingyun. "Madam, the village is still in chaos. To prevent the remnants of the Di Yin Demon, it's best for you to rest with us. When I came here, I saw that the Goddess Temple was intact, and the place is quite large, which is convenient for accommodating other villagers. We can rest there tonight. What do you think, Madam?"
With the protection of the Wanjian Sect disciples, Luo Qingyun had no objection and nodded repeatedly.
Seeing this, Lin Hai immediately called the old man over and said, "You are familiar with Madam, so take them to the Earth Temple to settle them first. If there is any danger, inform me immediately."
"Don't worry, senior brother. I will definitely protect junior sister." The old man's face was flushed. It was he who discovered this little girl, which was a great achievement.
After the old man left with Xiang Sheng and his mother, Lin Hai's smile faded slightly, and he said in a deep voice, "Don't look anymore. There will be plenty of time to look after Junior Sister in the future. Now get back to work."
Everyone burst into laughter and dispersed. Only one person remained, hesitant, and said, "Big Brother, these corpses of the Earth Demons..."
Lin Hai's eyes flickered slightly. He squatted down and picked up a few ice chips. He held them in his palm and examined them for a moment before throwing them away. He stood up and said, "The sword energy of this person is extremely cold. The demon's body is completely gone, so we can't find anything. Qingsen, are there any other bodies?"
Junior Brother Qingsen nodded quickly: "Yes, Senior Brother, follow me."
Lin Hai followed closely behind with a serious expression.
They were the only ones who were on this trip to clear out the Di Yin Demons. These Di Yin Demons who turned into broken ice were certainly not killed by the so-called elders of his sect.
The matter had not yet been clarified, and it was unknown whether it was good or bad, so when Luo Qingyun asked about it just now, he lied to avoid unsettling people.
A moment later——
Lin Hai and Qing Sen arrived at the village entrance. Qing Sen pointed at the pieces of meat scattered all over the ground and said, "Big Brother, these are them. I examined them for a long time, but I couldn't tell what kind of weapon caused them."
Lin Hai squatted down, controlled his true energy to wrap around a piece of broken meat, and was about to invade it, but at this moment, a flash of light flashed on the surface of the broken meat, which actually broke his true energy directly and fell to the ground again.
Lin Hai's pupils suddenly narrowed, "Sword Intent!"
Qing Sen stared in shock, "Big Brother, what did you say? Is it really the sword intent?"
Although their Wanjian Sect claimed to specialize in sword cultivation, the threshold for sword cultivation was extremely high. The number of serious sword cultivators within the sect could be counted on one hand, and even fewer who had mastered the sword's essence were present.
However, Qingsen also knew that sword intent was a legendary thing that had only been seen in books. Even his master said that if Wanjianmen produced another sword cultivator who could comprehend sword intent, smoke would rise from their ancestral graves.
Now, the eldest senior brother actually said that the death of these Diyin demons in front of him was caused by the sword intent. How could he not be shocked?
Lin Hai didn't continue to check. He clenched his fists and stood up, saying in a deep voice: "Notify the others immediately and speed up. We will set off to return to the sect tonight!"
Aomori also knew the seriousness of the situation and hurried to inform others.
At the same time, Xiang Sheng and Luo Qingyun followed the old man to the earth temple, but were stopped outside the door by a strange young monk.
The young cultivator glanced at the old man, his face suddenly filled with contempt: "Thousand Star Hall is in charge of this matter, all outsiders, get out!"
