Almost everyone in front of him was a big shot in their sect, and each of them had a higher cultivation level than him, so he had no right to speak.
Besides, Tang Baozhu didn't want to say anything. She wasn't familiar with them, so what was there to say?
He simply stood to the side, quietly listening to Xu Rui exchange pleasantries with them.
Suddenly, I felt a gaze, the malice in it was very obvious. I glanced in the direction from which the gaze came without making a sound.
He didn't even let her notice; it was as if his gaze swept across her face, and she couldn't tell that he was looking at her on purpose.
Tang Baozhu thought about the appearance of that person from earlier; she was particularly alluring and seductive, the kind of woman that would make any man drool.
Baozhu had a suspicion: she had never met this person before, nor had she ever had any dealings with her, but there was no doubt that she harbored ill intentions towards her, and those intentions were particularly obvious.
She glanced at Xu Rui in front of her. It seemed that the woman was so hostile towards her because of her husband. She wondered if Xu Rui knew what the woman was thinking.
But judging from the fact that he didn't even glance in that direction, you could tell he definitely didn't take it to heart.
After observing for a while, Tang Baozhu had a general idea of what was going on.
After exchanging pleasantries with Xu Rui for a while, the sect leader and the senior elders asked to see the children.
Tang Baozhu was initially hesitant to let them see it, after all, there was a woman there who harbored ill intentions towards her, and she worried that she might subtly harm the children.
But since the sect leader and the elders all wanted to see it, he couldn't refuse, and even Xu Rui didn't feel comfortable refusing.
After all, he didn't know that anyone would harm his child, and he was in the mindset of a foolish father, wanting to show off to the whole world that he had a child.
So they didn't refuse at all; on the contrary, they were very enthusiastic.
When Tang Baozhu saw him like this, she knew she couldn't count on him, but she also knew she couldn't blame him, since he had no idea that someone would harm his child.
He could only secretly communicate with the puppets in his mind. The puppets were all under his control, and they knew what he meant as soon as he had a thought.
Tang Baozhu told them to watch over the children, and that the sect leader and the Supreme Elder could also watch over them, but they should be careful that the women next to them might not do anything shady.
Although the other women weren't as hostile towards her, she would never let her guard down.
She originally wanted to communicate with Xu Rui directly through telepathy, but then she realized that everyone here had a higher cultivation level than her. If she communicated through telepathy, it would be like telling them through a megaphone, and everyone would be able to hear it.
We had to abandon that idea for the time being, but having these puppets meant we had some means of self-preservation.
"Baozhu, have these puppets bring the child over so that the sect leader and elders can see him."
Tang Baozhu smiled slightly, "Okay."
Smiling on the surface, cursing under their breath
Seeing the five puppets holding children for them to see, he was incredibly nervous inside, but he remained outwardly calm.
The first one they looked at was an elder in the Mahayana stage, who immediately took out a crystal ball from his ring.
"Xu Rui, shall I test their aptitude and see what level they have reached?"
"Then I'll have to trouble Elder Le."
What could Xu Rui say? They even brought out the crystal ball; how could he refuse?
Even if Tang Baozhu was unwilling, she dared not say it out loud. Testing qualifications in public was risky, and if word got out, it might bring them danger.
After all, the sect is not entirely peaceful; there are always spies planted by other sects. It's simply impossible to keep it a secret from so many people here.
Elder Le took the crystal ball and began to test their qualifications one by one.
Starting with the eldest, I grabbed his hand and placed it on the crystal ball. Less than five seconds later, a beam of red light shot into the sky.
If his hand hadn't been removed, it might have continued indefinitely.
Tang Baozhu couldn't see anything else, but she knew that her child had a single fire elemental root. Judging from the red light just now, his aptitude was definitely not bad.
Although Tang Baozhu couldn't tell, the big shots could. Everyone around was very excited, but they were all desperately suppressing their excitement and not making a sound.
Judging from their expressions, Tang Baozhu knew that her child's aptitude was definitely not bad.
Next was the second brother. As soon as the second brother placed his hand on it, a beam of blue light shot straight into the sky.
It's no different from the boss, except the color of the light is different.
Next came the third, fourth, and fifth children. Each of them was tested, and the results were all similar.
However, their spiritual roots are all different. Each of them possesses one of the five elements (metal, wood, water, fire, earth), making them all single-element spiritual roots.
Although she didn't have a mutated spiritual root, she was still very satisfied, at least it was much better than her own aptitude as a mother.
She just doesn't know if she has any better aptitude than Xu Rui, since she doesn't know what Xu Rui's spiritual root is, but she thinks she probably can't compare.
After all, few people in the cultivation world are born struck by lightning; most are born with a divine spirit body. However, there are no magical artifacts in the cultivation world that can test this.
The sect leader was extremely excited, so much so that his mouth trembled and he couldn't speak. The others around him were also very happy.
A child with such good aptitude indicates that the sect will become increasingly powerful in the future.
Just when everyone was having a good time, the woman with the seductive appearance suddenly lost control of her malice for a moment, which everyone could feel.
Everyone present had lived for hundreds or even thousands of years, and a change in their aura in an instant was enough for them to lock onto her.
Tang Baozhu also sensed the malice. Because her senses were particularly sharp, she quickly had the five puppets bring the child back.
All the elders had their eyes on the alluring woman, but they couldn't do anything about it in front of Baozhu, so they prepared to leave one by one, taking the alluring woman with them as they went.
Before leaving, Elder Le transmitted his voice to Xu Rui, "Don't worry about the children's safety. This person won't be coming out again. When you get back, please select five elders with the cultivation level of Loose Immortal to be the protectors of these children."
Upon hearing this, Xu Rui's mouth moved, but it was unclear what he was saying. If Tang Baozhu hadn't been paying close attention to her husband, she probably wouldn't have noticed that he was communicating telepathically with someone else.
After everyone left, Xu Rui could no longer hide the excited smile on his face.
Tang Baozhu asked curiously, "What are you so happy about? Did one of the elders say something to you?"
