I feel like a complete novice, not knowing anything.
If this level of skill were in their sect, they would be punished by being hung up and whipped!
Feeling embarrassed by the girl's disdain, Qingyi touched his nose, looking somewhat awkward.
His master only told him about demons as stories; he had never actually seen them.
Moreover, there are very few records about demons in the books, and no demons have appeared in the last few hundred years. The Xuanmen naturally believed that the depletion of spiritual energy not only caused the Xuanmen to decline, but also made it difficult for demons to take shape.
I'm afraid those legendary demons have long since vanished into the river of time.
"The demon race has been extinct for hundreds of years, so..."
Qiqi understood instantly.
This means that with demons no longer appearing, the Xuanmen sect has enjoyed a good life and has gradually become complacent, consequently neglecting these potential threats!
However, she could understand that Heaven was inherently harsh on demons, and with the spiritual energy depleted in this era and the decline of Xuanmen's cultivation, it was understandable that demons would gradually become less concerned about them.
However, now that demonic seeds have appeared, a well filled with demonic energy has appeared in her dream.
There are some things that still need to be discussed with the current practitioners of Taoism.
To avoid being helpless when they face the challenge themselves.
Thinking of this, Qiqi's tone became serious, "Demons are very cunning creatures, ruthless to others and even more ruthless to themselves! Sometimes, in order to achieve a certain goal, they will differentiate their demonic seed in order to attach themselves to more humans and facilitate the achievement of their goal. However, this differentiation process is very painful, much like how our human Xuanmen cultivators tear their own souls into pieces. Demons that are not particularly powerful generally cannot complete the differentiation."
The little girl's voice was sweet and gentle, yet her tone was very serious and earnest, creating an unexpectedly endearing contrast.
But Qingyi couldn't get this appealing point at all, and even felt a chill run down her spine when she heard it.
"So, you mean this demonic seed originated from a powerful demon, and there are many such demonic seeds, and we don't know if any of these seeds have possessed humans?"
"Yes." Qiqi nodded.
Qingyi's face instantly darkened. "Are you... sure?"
Seeing that he doubted her, Qiqi pouted unhappily, "Fine, if you don't believe me, then so be it."
In any case, once the demonic seed is born, it will follow in quick succession.
I believe that he will soon encounter the second, the third, and the Nth one.
"It's not that I don't believe you," Qingyi quickly explained, afraid that the young girl would think he didn't believe her and wouldn't accept him as her disciple. "It's just that if what you said is true, then I must immediately notify the elders of the Xuanmen Association and prepare a response in advance."
Qiqi stopped in her tracks, turned to look at him, and blinked her big eyes. "The Xuanmen sect has an association and elders? Does it have a sect leader?"
"Yes." Qing nodded, paused, and hesitated before saying, "However, the sect leader suddenly disappeared three years ago. For the past three years, the Xuanmen has been searching everywhere for the sect leader's whereabouts, but there is still no news."
As Qingyi said this, she looked at Qiqi very seriously, her expression seeming to say: See, I've told you something so important; I'm truly sincere. Since I've been so honest with you, please accept me as your disciple!
Qiqi: ……
Her thoughts lingered on the "three years ago" that Qingyi had mentioned.
Three years ago, coinciding with the time of her rebirth in this era.
I just don't know if there's any necessary connection between the two.
Qiqi snapped out of her thoughts, "Then you should report this matter to the Xuanmen as soon as possible, and it would be best to conduct a city-wide investigation. Small demon seeds that branch off from the same piece of demon seed are generally not too far apart, otherwise it will affect the communication between demon seeds."
If we search from this angle, we can narrow down the search and should be able to find it.
Although this old Taoist priest is a bit useless, he must have some ability to reach the position of elder of the Xuanmen Association!
Never mind, she's just a child anyway, we can't let her do everything by herself.
Qiqi is shirking her responsibilities with complete righteousness!
"Alright, I'll go to the association now and report this to the elders."
After saying that, Qingyi hurriedly left.
Having gotten rid of the trouble, the little girl happily skipped out of the police station.
As she was hopping around, a person suddenly rushed over from around the corner, looking very anxious. He didn't even look where he was going and bumped into the little girl.
"Ouch!" Qiqi was caught off guard and fell to the ground with a thud on her bottom.
The man glanced down at her, his eyes full of wariness. When he saw that she was a young girl, his tense expression relaxed slightly, but he still looked very nervous.
Without saying a word, she clutched a black bag to her chest with both hands and ran inside.
Qiqi, clutching her sore bottom, looked up and saw a dense aura of death suddenly explode throughout the entire police station.
Looking at the source of the deathly aura, it turned out to be the black bag that person was holding in their arms.
"Comrade, this is not a place for you. What do you want?" A policeman came out of the office and stopped the man who was barging in.
The man seemed startled, his whole body trembling with fear, like a frightened rabbit.
The police immediately sensed something was wrong and reached out to grab him.
The man suddenly raised his black bag, pointed at the policeman, and shouted, "Don't come any closer!"
The police officer, alert, placed one hand on his service pistol at his waist and warned, "What do you think you're doing? This is a police station. I advise you to calm down!"
Several police officers who heard the commotion rushed out, all eyeing the bag in the man's hand warily.
They stood like cheetahs poised to pounce, adopting defensive postures.
Seeing that he was surrounded by police, the man became a little anxious, pulled open his bag, and took out a remote control.
"Don't move! I have the latest bomb in this bag. It can level this building in an instant! If you dare to come any closer, I'll detonate it right now!"
Upon hearing that the bag contained a bomb, the group of police officers immediately dared not approach and became hesitant and timid.
One of the more senior members tentatively approached him and said, "Don't be impulsive. We can discuss any demands you may have."
"I want to see my son! Let me see my son!"
"Your son is..."
"Su Yunfan!"
Qiqi's mouth dropped open in surprise.
She stared at the man with her big, dark eyes for a long time, but couldn't see any trace of kinship with him.
But... I saw something else!
I originally thought it would take some time to find the second differentiated demon seed, but I didn't expect the second demon seed to appear so quickly.
