Chapter 302 Half-Demon Fox's Black Moonlight Monk 03
Two hours later, the scorching sun was hanging high in the sky. Both the disciples of the Tianjian Sect and the children waiting for the test were a little irritable.
Shen Xinran hid under the shade of a tree early and took out the small stool he brought with him.
The light from the side was suddenly blocked by someone. Shen Xinran turned around and saw that it was the elder of Tianjian Sect who came over with his chair.
Shen Xinran felt that the shade of the tree was limited, and adhering to the fine tradition of respecting the elderly and loving the young, she moved to the side to leave a place for the elder.
But She Shihua frowned at her and said, "You are so young and you are already so obsessed with pleasure. You will never achieve anything great in the future."
Shen Xinran's eyes widened. "I'm just sitting on a bench, and you're still sitting on a chair. What right do you have to criticize me?"
Shen Xinran's temper flared up, and she placed the small stool in the middle. This way, no matter where She Shihua sat, half of her body would be exposed to the sun.
She Shihua naturally couldn't afford to fight with a child. He simply pulled a box from his storage bag and threw it on the ground. Like magic, the box transformed into a pavilion. He also took out half a watermelon and ate it while looking at the test bench.
When Shen Xinran saw this, she was extremely envious. She clenched her fists and secretly made up her mind that when she had money in the future, she would do the same.
I only heard the Tianjian Sect disciples shouting: "Wu Jieying"
Wu Hongyuan immediately raised Wu Jieying's hand high and shouted with a smile: "Here, here!"
After he finished speaking, he looked at Wu Jieying and said with a smile, "Don't be afraid, Mom and Dad are here. Even if you don't have spiritual roots, it doesn't matter. Our family's wealth is enough for us to live a carefree life."
"What are you talking about!" Song Liheng glared at Wu Hongyuan. Then she patted Wu Jieying's hand and said with a smile, "Mother believes in you. My daughter is definitely a one-in-a-million genius."
Even Shen Xinran couldn't help but stretch her neck and look at Wu Jieying. She had never seen a top-grade ice spirit root before!
She Shihua glanced at Shen Xinran and asked, "Do you know him?"
Shen Xinran raised her chin and said proudly, "That's my sister!"
She Shihua smiled and shook his head, not caring.
Wu Jieying walked onto the testing table, and the mirror emitted a light blue light, like the purest ice crystals in winter, soft yet cool.
"Top-grade ice spiritual root!" After seeing it clearly, She Shihua paused for a moment, stood up, and flew to the test bench in three or two steps. There was a glimmer of light in his eyes as he looked at Wu Jieying.
The top-grade ice spirit root is a good seedling for a natural sword cultivator, which has not appeared in thousands of years. She Shihua now wants to take Wu Jieying back to the sect immediately and let those old guys see it!
"As an elder of the Tianjian Sect, I invite you to join our sect. As long as you agree, you can become a direct disciple of any elder of our Tianjian Sect."
Although Wu Hongyuan didn't know what a top-grade ice spirit root was, he knew from She Shihua's expression that it must be very powerful. He shouted directly: "We have a daughter, she must be a genius too."
She Shihua nodded, turned to look at Shen Xinran, and said in a deep voice: "Then you come and test it too."
Shen Xinran naturally knew that she was not a genius. She smiled stiffly and said, "Everyone is queuing up. It would be a bit embarrassing for me to cut in line!"
Wu Hongyuan ran directly to Shen Xinran's side, took Shen Xinran's hand and walked towards the test bench, saying as he walked: "The elder asked you to test it, no one dared to say anything."
When the others saw Shen Xinran, they all moved away.
Shen Xinran stepped onto the test bench under the gaze of the crowd, and the mirror emitted a golden light. She Shihua's heart was in his throat. Could it be that another genius was about to appear?
But not long after, the golden light turned into green, then blue, and then red and brown.
Finally, five colors of light appeared on the mirror.
She Shihua sighed, "This is the most useless of the five spiritual roots."
Practitioners with five spiritual roots need to balance the five attributes during the practice process, which greatly increases the difficulty of practice and is almost impossible to achieve.
Since it needs to pay attention to five attributes at the same time, its cultivation speed will be slower than that of cultivators with single or dual attribute spiritual roots, and the resources consumed will be five times or even ten times that of other cultivators.
If it were a hundred thousand years ago, the five spiritual roots could still fight against fate, but now there is a shortage of spiritual energy, and three and four spiritual roots cannot be cultivated. The five spiritual roots can be said to be completely useless.
Shen Xinran looked at Wu Hongyuan and whispered, "Dad and Mom, I've embarrassed you."
Wu Hongyuan was stunned for a moment, then scratched his head and laughed, "You are already very powerful. Your mother and I combined don't have as many spiritual roots as you."
When Shen Xinran heard this, she burst out laughing. She finally realized that her father was also a funny guy.
While She Shihua was distracted, Wu Hongyuan looked at Wu Jieying and waved to her. When she came over, he lowered his voice and said, "The elders of the Tianjian Sect value you very much. You can negotiate with him. If he wants you to join the sect, he must accept our family."
Wu Jieying nodded, "Okay."
Wu Hongyuan patted Wu Jieying on the shoulder and said seriously, "Our whole family's hope rests on you."
Although She Shihua felt sorry for Shen Xinran, he was already in the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm. The entire Xianyuan Square was under the coverage of his spiritual consciousness, so Wu Hongyuan and Wu Jieying's words naturally did not escape his ears.
So, when Wu Jieying came over, he spoke first, "You have to think carefully. The road to immortality is long. If you get too deeply entangled in worldly love, it will not benefit you in the future. Besides, even if your sister reluctantly enters cultivation, she will only be able to stop at the Qi Refining Stage."
Wu Jieying smiled faintly and said, "It doesn't matter. As long as we are together as a family, I am not afraid of any hardship or difficulty."
She Shihua looked at Wu Jieying with a hint of heartache. In his opinion, Wu Jieying was destined to be dragged down by this large family. "We'll leave the day after tomorrow. Please pay attention to the time."
Lingshuang City is the last testing site of the Tianjian Sect. She Shihua spent two days testing the spiritual roots of thousands of children. In the end, only six were selected, and this was the result after he let them off easy.
Including the children from other places, the number of children he brought back to the sect this time was no more than 100. This was far from enough for a large sect.
When She Shihua saw the family of four jogging over, he frowned, "The sect uses spirit stones, why are you carrying so many treasures?"
A family of four stood in a row in front of She Shihua. Their packages were so full that some items were sticking out.
Wu Hongyuan, who was carrying a huge bag, said with a smile, "Just in case."
Song Liheng, holding a small bag in each hand, said, "It looks good when worn."
She Shihua nodded, then looked at Shen Xinran who was holding the cage, and continued to frown: "What about you, the fox?"
Shen Xinran blinked, "Just for fun."
She Shihua then looked at Wu Jieying. As expected of a chosen swordsman, she was only carrying some underwear.
What he didn't know was that the bag he thought was his underwear was actually filled with food.
Just as She Shihua was about to leave, he set his sights on the cage again, "You fox—"
Shen Xinran's heart was in her throat, fearing that She Shihua would find out that the male protagonist was a half-demon.
But the hero in the plot has been hiding in the sect until the middle and late stages, so She Shihua should not be able to see it!
Sure enough, She Shihua paused for a long time, and then said, "It's so ugly!"
Wu Hongyuan nodded in agreement. Finally, someone spoke out what was in his heart.
