Be careful when you go out lately.
Bai Musheng warned.
"Jin Yueyue's knee injury is very serious, and she might retaliate against you."
Xiao Qingyin nodded: "Yes, I will be careful."
“The Feast of the Holy Spirit is just a few days away, and people from all over Nandan will flock to the holy city to participate in the celebrations.”
Bai Musheng reminded him.
"The Holy City will be in chaos then, and she might take the opportunity to strike."
"Understood."
After Xiao Qingyin finished speaking, she remembered something: "Are you going to make an appearance at Holy Spirit Day?"
“Yes,” Bai Musheng said with a smile, “I will appear riding a sacred beast.”
"What sacred beast?"
"The elephant is one of the four sacred beasts and also the guardian deity of the Bai family."
"What are the other three sacred beasts?"
"Butterfly, python, crow."
After a moment's thought, Xiao Qingyin knew which family each of the four sacred beasts was the guardian deity of.
"The butterfly belongs to the Jin family, right?"
She asked Bai Musheng.
Bai Musheng nodded: "Yes."
What kind of butterfly?
"A golden butterfly with tiger stripes."
Xiao Qingyin's heart stirred.
"Draw it for me."
Bai Musheng assumed that she, like other girls, liked pretty butterflies, so he smiled and drew a butterfly for her.
Xiao Qingyin looked at the butterfly vividly depicted on the paper and revealed a meaningful smile.
After Bai Musheng left, she went to find Yan Yufei and Shen Yanru.
“I have obtained the insecticide. However, the active ingredient in this pesticide is more dangerous than the insects themselves, so I cannot give you the formula for the time being.”
She said to the two of them.
"Only I can prepare and distribute the medication."
Yan Yufei and his companion didn't care about this; they had no intention of getting Xiao Qingyin's prescription.
"As long as it can kill insects, that's fine."
"Then you should arrange for the patient to pick up the medicine, giving priority to the sick and weak."
Yan Yufei nodded: "Okay."
From that day on, Xiao Qingyin went to Ruyi Teahouse, where, besides giving lectures, she distributed insecticides to patients who came to collect their medicine.
To prevent the spread of the bat virus, she watched these people take the medication before letting them leave.
After several busy days, Holy Spirit Day arrived.
On the day of the festival, she went to Santa Square with the Bai family.
The square was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, creating a festive atmosphere.
A square platform was erected in front of the tower, decorated with colorful flowers all around, and a tall chair carved from white jade was placed in the center, clearly prepared for the Holy Lord.
After the four great families arrived, the Holy Army cleared a path through the street.
Music began to play.
The candidates for Holy Son and the Holy Beasts slowly entered the arena.
The first to appear was Bai Musheng, riding an elephant.
The elephant was draped in white silk, with a golden cushion on its back. Bai Musheng, dressed in white, sat astride the elephant's back, looking around and smiling at everyone.
His appearance was the most striking, and his demeanor the most outstanding. He won the favor of the believers as soon as he appeared.
They cheered enthusiastically and showered him with handfuls of flower petals from their baskets.
Bai Musheng's smile widened.
Closely following behind him was the candidate for the Holy Son of the Kim family.
The other person was sitting in an open carriage surrounded by a dense ring of branches, on which rested thousands of golden butterflies with tiger-stripe edges.
These butterflies are quite large, with wingspans as long as a palm, and they look beautiful and dreamlike.
Many women were captivated by these butterflies, gazing at them with mesmerized expressions.
Xiao Qingyin also joined their ranks.
Upon seeing this, Jin Yueyue revealed a bloodthirsty smile.
The third to appear were the candidate for the Holy Son of the Ba family and a ten-meter-long golden python.
The python lay coiled up, lazily on the flatbed truck.
The candidate from the Ba family sat in the center of the snake circle, looking relaxed.
The onlookers fell silent.
This snake was as thick as an adult's waist, and it could swallow a child whole. Even the strongest person couldn't withstand its strangulation.
They didn't dare breathe loudly, silently watching it leave.
Compared to the previous three families, the Wu family, who appeared last, seemed somewhat inferior.
Not only because their chosen candidates for the Holy Son were unattractive, but also because their sacred beast was a black raven.
A crow perched on the candidate's shoulder, tilting its head to observe the believers by the roadside, looking no different from any other ordinary bird.
It simply doesn't arouse the interest of believers.
The candidate from the Wu family had no expression on his face, as if he had already accepted his fate of being a runner-up.
After the candidates for Holy Son and the Holy Beasts entered, they stopped in front of the high platform.
The music then switched to a grand and solemn piece.
Two saints dressed in white robes and wearing white hoods held the handles of the main door on the first floor of the Holy Tower and slowly pulled it open.
A burly, black figure gradually appeared before everyone's eyes.
This was the first time Xiao Qingyin had seen the Holy Lord so closely.
He was completely covered in a black robe with gold trim, with a hood on his head and gloves on his hands, only his face was exposed.
His eyes were cloudy, his face was pale, and he exuded a gloomy aura that made people feel extremely uncomfortable.
Xiao Qingyin only knew that he came from the Ba family, was about sixty years old, and was the second Holy Master in the history of the Holy Sect, having sat in the position of Holy Master for thirty years.
After all the gates were opened, the Holy Lord slowly walked to the high platform and delivered a speech.
After announcing the start of the celebration, he sat down on the jade chair and did not move again.
A grand song and dance performance begins.
The believers cheered and threw flowers wildly.
When a large bucket of bright red rose petals was thrown at Xiao Qingyin, she dodged to the side.
