"Thank you, Immortal Lin."
Luo Qingyun thanked him and watched Lin Hai leave before pushing the door open. Seeing the simple yet spotless furnishings in the courtyard, a look of relief filled her eyes.
In this way, she can accompany Sheng'er safely for decades. After decades, Sheng'er will have achieved success in cultivation and may be able to stand on her own. Then she will have nothing to worry about.
Xiang Sheng took in Luo Qingyun's reaction and frowned slightly, but did not point it out.
Her top priority was to recover her cultivation. With her current spiritual root aptitude, it wouldn't take much time. Once she recovered to her peak state, it wouldn't be too late to check on Luo Qingyun's situation.
Otherwise, in this world of cultivation, just knowing the problem but not having the strength to support it is all empty talk.
…
Just as Xiang Sheng and Luo Qingyun settled down, Lin Hai had already landed outside the main hall of the peak.
Hearing the faint sound of conversation coming from inside, Lin Hai pushed the door open and walked in.
The door opened, and the voices inside stopped for a moment before another familiar voice rang out, "Junior Brother, you've arrived just in time."
Ying Changfeng walked down from the Sect Master's throne quickly, a smile on his face. "I heard you found another promising talent for the sect?"
Seeing his senior brother and the other elders in the hall, Lin Hai finally showed a bit of relief on his face and said, "His name is Luo Sheng. He has a top-grade spiritual root, just a little short of overflowing. He is even stronger than Junior Brother Jian Jue."
As soon as these words were spoken, exclamations were heard in the hall.
"After receiving two high-grade spiritual roots in a row, our Wanjian Sect is finally going to become prosperous? Haha!" The third elder Xuanfeng laughed excitedly, his untidy beard shaking with laughter.
"Okay, okay."
The Second Elder, dressed like a scholar, was clearly having a headache. "We still haven't found a master for Jian Jue, and now here comes another one..."
"Jian Jue is too stubborn. I think the little girl Xiao Haixin brought back is a well-behaved one, so I'll teach her..."
The anxious Fifth Elder was halfway through his words when Third Elder Xuanfeng's eyebrows shot up, "How can that be possible? Jian Jue won't recognize me as his master. I have to teach this little Sheng'er!"
"Xuanfeng, you already have a disciple, but I don't have one yet..."
"Stop arguing, stop arguing." The second elder hurriedly stepped forward to separate them.
Seeing the fight unfolding inside the palace like a street brawl, Ying Changfeng, accustomed to it, pulled Lin Hai outside and asked, "Tell me more specifically, how did things go this time?"
Lin Hai's face darkened. "This is bad. There are more and more demons. I can't kill them all. I also encountered people from the incense hall stealing incense. They stole the pure incense from the statues."
Ying Changfeng pursed his lips, "I will inform Fengyue Sect about this matter. However, the losses at the Xianghuo Temple are too great, and the people are scattered. No matter how much we talk about this matter, I'm afraid it will be difficult to avoid it. I will also send people to guard the temple."
Lin Hai frowned upon hearing this, "The strange place...appeared again?"
Ying Changfeng hummed softly, his voice growing heavier. "They're not within the Thousand Star Palace's territory, but within the Tianyan Sect. Two of them suddenly appeared, and the incense hall over there was immediately filled with half its inhabitants, causing panic among the people."
Lin Hai's mouth was dry, "...the five major sects, haven't you thought of a solution?"
"What can we do? The rift in the Underworld has only appeared for thirty years. Things are moving too fast, and the reasons behind many things are still unclear."
Ying Changfeng sighed, "I also heard that Jiang Yi was ambushed by the Underworld while he was traveling outside, and he has been in a coma ever since. I don't know if it's true or not."
Lin Hai's expression changed slightly. "This must have been premeditated. Jiang Yi is the reincarnation of an ancient great being. If he were awake, he would be able to sort out the situation and contain it in a very short time."
"That's what I thought."
Ying Changfeng calmed himself down, a smile on his face. He patted Lin Hai on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry. The five major sects are more anxious than us. If it collapses, there are tall people to hold it up. Let's take care of Wanjianmen first. No matter how much we think about other things, it's useless."
Lin Hai nodded repeatedly and then smiled.
Although his master was dead, as long as his senior brother was around, he had nothing to fear.
"Oh, there's one more thing."
Ying Changfeng frowned slightly: "Jian Jue made a name for himself last time and attracted the attention of many sects. For the sake of caution, don't let him go down the mountain recently.
Jian Jue is a proud and arrogant child, always rude to others, but he is somewhat obedient to you and me. I have too many trivial matters here and have not been able to go over. You should go over and tell him in person."
