When the father and daughter came out, their expressions had returned to calm, but Sheng Yunfan's expression seemed a little unnatural.
Sheng Yunfan personally returned the spirit plate to Li Yue. Li Yue took it and hesitated:
"Good brother..."
Sheng Yunfan sighed:
"It's still the same as before, but fortunately, my wood spirit root has not continued to weaken, and it can still be considered as hanging on to my life."
After Sheng Hongyi took the test, Sheng Yunfan also used a drop of blood to test his spiritual root.
He originally had the dual spiritual roots of wood and fire, but later he lost the fire spiritual roots, and the red light beam that appeared on the soul-finding board flashed for a moment, and then with a "bang" sound, he fell into darkness.
However, the strange thing is that his wood spiritual root declined greatly in the years after he was injured, but now it seems to have stabilized, and his spiritual root is still above average.
Sheng Yunfan even vaguely felt that he could feel some spiritual energy in a vague and non-existent way. He didn't know if it had something to do with his epiphany that day.
Sheng Yunfan knew that Li Yue was an honest man, and he felt a little guilty for deceiving him all the way to come here just for Hong Yi. He would definitely not deceive him for anything else.
Li Yue was overjoyed when he heard this:
"Hey, this is a great thing. Come on, come on, you have to drink two drinks with me to celebrate today."
After saying that, he didn't see anyone else, so he moved a chair and sat with Sheng Yunfan. He also held the pomegranate wine that Concubine Sheng Yu sent over for him to try:
"Tsk, this fruit wine is good, but it's boring. Like this, brother, you drink this wine, and I drink my shao knives."
After saying that, he patted the storage bag, took out a brown wine jar, opened it directly, and blew on the bottle.
Seeing that the two of them had drunk, Sheng Hongyi excused herself to go into the kitchen to help, and nodded towards Bai Wanzhen and Sheng Yufei who had been staring at her.
The two of them were stunned, happy and worried for a while, their faces turned red and white, showing that they were not at peace either.
Sheng Hongyi had already passed the most ups and downs of her mood at this time.
She helped to put the cooked dishes out of the pot step by step, and when she saw the chicken feet in red oil and spicy sauce, she didn't forget to eat them secretly.
Maybe she was used to it, so she accepted the facts very quickly.
The matter is already in front of us. After struggling with it, isn't it all the same in the end?
Instead, the constant struggle made her unable to eat or sleep well.
She is not such a person.
What she should be thinking about now is how to deal with the future based on this factual premise.
Fortunately, the family had a plan before, and now they just act according to the plan. The top priority is to build the foundation.
Li Yue had a lunch at Sheng's house and left shortly after noon. He came and went in a hurry, which showed that he was really busy with something. However, he was worried about his old friend, so he deliberately made time to make such a trip.
Sheng Yunfan personally sent Li Yue out of the Sheng family. When he came back, he looked a little worried and said:
"It's not peaceful outside now. Although Brother Li didn't say clearly what it was, he reminded that children from the Cangqiong Sect's dependent families have disappeared for no reason, especially you, Concubine Yu. Now you have a small child in your belly and you usually go out. You have to pay attention."
Sheng Yunfan frowned, and there were some words he didn't say.
Li Yue said that the missing children all had good spiritual roots.
Moreover, he searched for a long time, and although he found nothing, it was not without some other clues.
On one occasion, he found some traces of demonic cultivators, and he always felt that the child's incident seemed to be related to demonic cultivators.
In addition, there are exchanges between sects. Not only the Cangqiong sect, but other sects also have lost children, and they are all children with good spiritual abilities.
Li Yue recently came to Chenyuan Continent, where Xuanchen Sect is located, because someone discovered that there were traces of demonic cultivators coming and going in this area.
The reason why Li Yue told these things to Sheng Yunfan was because he saw the potbellied Concubine Sheng Yu.
Like Sheng Ping, as a Jindan monk, he can vaguely feel the situation of a fetus that has been formed in the mother's womb for six months.
Li Yue was actually more familiar with Concubine Sheng Yu than he was with Sheng Hongyi.
Sheng Hongyi was too young. When Sheng Yufei was just starting to practice Qi, Sheng Yunfan and Li Yue met, and they took Sheng Yufei on a trip together.
Li Yue also knew what Sheng Yunfan's spiritual qualifications were.
However, this time, he unexpectedly found that Concubine Sheng Yu was surrounded by spiritual energy, her aura was active and surging, and she was obviously on the verge of a breakthrough.
Concubine Sheng Yu also consulted Li Yue on some cultivation issues.
Concubine Sheng Yu herself admitted that her recent practice has been as fast as a divine aid.
This verified what Li Yue was thinking. Concubine Sheng Yu suddenly improved in cultivation when she had no other opportunities. It could only be Ziqiang who led Mu Sheng.
Therefore, he estimated that Concubine Sheng Yu's child was probably someone with good spiritual abilities.
The more Sheng Yunfan listened to Li Yue's words, the heavier his heart sank.
He suddenly remembered what he had done before. He remembered that Hong Yi came back from outside that day and asked him if he had met any demon cultivators in the secret realm of Pengshui Mountain.
So, it can be seen that the loss of his spiritual roots is also related to demonic cultivation?
I don’t know if it has anything to do with what’s going on today?
What made him most angry and unbelievable was that Sheng Yuntao was so stupid that he dared to get involved with the demon cultivator in order to suppress dissidents?
Sheng family, demon cultivator, seizing spiritual roots...
If the Xuanchen Sect knew about this...
He raised his eyes and looked at the sky. The sky was surging with wind and clouds. It looked like a blue sky and white clouds, a vast beauty. But who knew what would appear in the surging clouds next moment?
Sheng Yunfan had something on his mind, and Sheng Hongyi noticed it, but she didn't ask him directly. Mainly because Huihui was back at the moment, so it wasn't appropriate to say more.
When Li Yue came, Hui Hui stayed away. After all, a monster that spoke human words was really eye-catching.
In the evening, Sheng Hongyi went to find Sheng Yunfan, who was worried.
Seeing Sheng Hongyi, he immediately told his daughter about the matter, like pouring beans out of a bamboo tube, and finally asked:
"Hongyi, do you know that Sheng Yuntao and those people are related to demon cultivators?"
Otherwise, she wouldn't have asked that question that day.
Sheng Hongyi nodded:
"pretty close."
Hearing this, Sheng Yunfan's expression suddenly changed, as if he had suffered a huge blow.
Not only him, but also Bai Wanzhen beside him turned pale.
Sheng Hongyi said in surprise:
"What's wrong?"
Sheng Yunfan shook his head, his tone was angry and weak, as if he was trapped by something and couldn't break free:
"They are so courageous. If someone finds out that the Sheng family and the demon cultivators are working together to steal the spiritual roots, the Sheng family will definitely become the target of public criticism and even be exterminated!"
They are also members of the Sheng family. Even if they say they have severed ties with the Sheng family, outsiders would not think so.
The family is connected by blood, and the superiors will not care about the internal situation of your family. For such evil things, they would rather kill by mistake than let anyone go!
Sheng Hongyi: "..." There was a thump in her heart. It was over. She forgot one thing. This is not a modern, clan society, and people like to sit together most.
