Changfeng was also surprised, after all, he had never heard of such a thing before, let alone seen it. Perhaps he hadn't cultivated into a spirit for long enough and was later sealed away, so he was a bit ignorant.
However, Shang Lin, who can become the sect leader of Yuntai Sect, is indeed extraordinary! How did I initially go against him? Thinking about it now, I was really just a newborn calf unafraid of tigers! A bit brainless.
After Changfeng finished his silent sigh, Shang Lin's voice came again, "Although the human realm is currently in the Dharma-ending Age, the Dharma-ending Age also means a scarcity of cultivation resources. Therefore, all sorts of methods to seize resources will emerge endlessly, so it's not surprising that all kinds of means are used. In my opinion, those who use these means are collectively called 'evil cultivators.' But if it really is the work of evil cultivators, you and Changfeng probably can't handle it. You should ask Director Mo for a solution."
"I understand. Thank you, Sect Master Shang. Goodbye."
"Okay, goodbye."
Lan Xuan listened to advice very well. When Shang Lin told him to find Mo Rong, he immediately called Mo Rong without wasting any time. On the other hand, Shang Lin was a little distracted as he looked at the phone that had been hung up.
Because he hadn't eaten any food with spiritual energy at noon, Shang Lin felt a bit hungry while doing his homework, so he asked She Jinxing to make him a midnight snack. Now that the snack was on the table, he wasn't in the mood to eat it.
So, She Jinxing, who had been busy in the kitchen, hadn't been listening carefully to Shang Lin and Lan Xuan's conversation. Seeing that he didn't seem to want to eat again, she hurriedly asked, "What's wrong? Did I make a bad midnight snack that made the sect leader lose his appetite?"
No way? Their sect leader is never picky about food, especially food with spiritual energy. "Or is it that the sect leader is too hungry to eat anymore?"
Shang Lin immediately picked up his chopsticks, snapping out of his reverie, and said, "How could that be? I was just thinking about something."
She Jinxing paused, "What happened?"
"It's about the neighboring city that Mo Rong mentioned at noon."
After finishing speaking, Shang Lin immediately turned on his phone's recorder so that She Jinxing could hear the complete version. His phone had an automatic recording function, which would save him the trouble of repeating it, allowing him to focus on eating.
She Jinxing was also taken aback, but having lived in the human world for so long, he was obviously more knowledgeable than Changfeng. So after listening to the recording, he immediately said, "I have indeed seen living dead, but that was a thousand years ago. Which sect or human could have such methods now? Anyway, I don't believe it. I'm more inclined to believe they were eaten."
Shang Lin nodded in agreement, "Actually, that's what I thought too, but there's no factual basis for it. It's just that in the very beginning, I saw with my own eyes that Ji Xiaoyao was about to eat Xing Tian's soul! So I could only ask Lan Xuan to find Mo Rong to come up with a solution."
Regarding the initial incident where Ji Xiaoyao wanted to consume Xing Tian's soul, She Jinxing, who arrived later, eventually learned about it through her interactions with everyone. However, she asked, "Sect Master, do you think these two things are the same?"
"You mean, there are still ghost cultivators eating souls, especially 'freshly made' ones?" Shang Lin shook his head slightly. "I don't think so. The chances of ghost cultivators existing are much smaller than those of demon cultivators. I feel like I've encountered a once-in-a-lifetime event like meeting Ji Xiaoyao."
Upon hearing this, She Jinxing hesitated. "Is it possible that it was done by an evil cultivator?"
Shang Lin clenched his fist silently. Evil cultivator?! He already had a former classmate who was on the path of evil cultivation, so how did another "evil cultivator" suddenly appear?
