In a hundred years, unless someone cooperates inside and outside, the boundary gate she set up will never be broken.
And since she merged into the Yuan Embryon, it shouldn't be long before the black tide rises again and floods the gate.
Even if Tianqing Pavilion is really a traitor and wants to let the monks from the underworld come in, it is impossible to do so in the face of the overwhelming black tide. Otherwise, Liu Huang would not have to wait until then to show up to cause trouble.
Xiang Shen took a gentle breath and calmed down his thoughts.
Something new must have happened in Guijian.
I thought that after reincarnation, I could stay in the secular world to practice with peace of mind, and wait until a hundred years later for Luo Qingyun to come into contact with the chaos of the world of cultivation.
Now it seems that she was too naive.
If the monks from the underworld really attacked Dongzhou in a large scale, it was still unclear whether she could protect Luo Qingyun on her own.
Thinking of this, Xiang Shu looked up at Luo Qingyun, and suddenly thought of something else.
Putting aside the weirdness last time, Luo Qingyun's reaction to seeing the spirit-testing bead this time was enough to show that her understanding of the world of cultivation was far beyond the realm of mortals.
Moreover, when the old man from Wanjian Sect announced his family status, Luo Qingyun's reaction was also a little deliberate, as if she had already seen the old man's identity as a monk.
What if Luo Qingyun was a monk before and now a mortal...
Luo Qingyun felt quite uncomfortable being stared at by Xiang Shu's appraising eyes, "Chu'er, why are you looking at my mother all the time?"
Xiang Shen raised her lips and smiled: "It's nothing, my mother is so beautiful."
Luo Qingyun helplessly brushed the hair beside Xiang Shuan's ear. Sometimes she really felt that the little girl was thinking a little deeply, but when she took a closer look, she felt it was nothing.
Chuan'er is only ten years old. Even if he is really the reincarnation of a powerful person in the world of cultivation, he will not gradually regain his memory until at least the pill formation period. Maybe he is overthinking it.
In the next few days, Xiang Shu would run out early in the morning every day and only rush back for dinner at noon.
Luo Qingyun just thought she was playful, but she didn't know that Xiang Shuan went up the mountain every day to welcome the purple energy coming from the east to consolidate his practice.
After practicing the sword for a few days, the foundation of the ninth level of Qi Refining was gradually solidified. Xiang Shu estimated that he could try to build the foundation in one or two days.
There is no foundation-building pill in the blood ring, but with her current spiritual roots and full of true energy, foundation-building is just a matter of time, and there is no need for the foundation-building pill to assist.
In addition, the "Shadow Transformation Secret Technique" has also been practiced to the second level in the past two days. However, with her current young appearance, no one in the cultivation world recognizes her, so there is no need to use the secret technique to cover her up for the time being.
On this day, on the top of the mountain outside the village.
A girl wearing simple cloth held a branch in her hand, her figure dancing and flickering in the open space on the top of the mountain. The branch in her hand was like a swimming dragon crossing the void, and the tail end was drawn, leaving a pale white trace of sword energy.
The fallen leaves rustled down, and wherever the sword energy brushed against them, they were all cut quietly and turned into broken leaves floating down.
After dozens of breaths, the girl's sword force suddenly changed, and the branch in her hand suddenly shot into the ground like an arrow from the string, until it submerged into the ground.
This girl is none other than Xiang Shu.
When the practice came to an end, Xiang Shu stood up and looked up at the sunset on the horizon.
I realized something today. After a delay of some time, Luo Qingyun should be anxious.
Her spiritual consciousness scanned the surrounding mountains and forests, and seeing no one around, she simply bent her knees and jumped down from the top of the mountain.
Not long after the wind roared by his ears, Xiang Shu took a breath, landed lightly on his feet, and ran quickly towards the village.
But before she reached the entrance of the village, she smelled the smell of blood coming from the village.
She felt a slight chill in her heart, and her small body immediately turned into a bolt of lightning and swept into the village.
As soon as he entered the village, Xiang Shu saw a dark humanoid monster.
Smelling the scent of a living person behind them, the humanoid monster gnawed on the corpse. Then, with a sharp howl, it rushed over with bared teeth and claws.
Earthly Demon? This is completely different from the monks in the underworld she imagined!
Xiang Shen pursed his lips tightly and waved the sword in his sleeve into the wind. The Earthly Yin Demon was instantly cut into pieces and turned into a rain of black and red blood.
Killing all the demons, he quickly swept towards Luo Qingyun without stopping, but the wind behind him swept away, turning into strands of sword energy and rushing in all directions.
At this moment, the originally peaceful mortal village has become a hell on earth, with broken limbs and broken arms everywhere.
In front of the earth temple, a pale-looking man ran away in panic. He tripped on the threshold and stumbled into the temple. Seeing the Earthly Demon Man chasing after him, he immediately closed his eyes in horror and screamed: " Goddess Shenji bless you!"
A gust of wind came, and in the blink of an eye, the Earthly Demon was broken into pieces of flesh and fell to the ground, spraying warm water on the man's head.
The man opened his eyes and saw the corpse on the ground. He was surprised and happy, "Has the queen appeared?"
He looked up and saw an Earth Demon not far away being cut into pieces by a gust of wind. He was immediately overjoyed, wiped away the blood and ran quickly, shouting at the same time.
"Empress Shen Ji has appeared!"
"Hurry up and lure the earth-yin demons to the temple, the empress has appeared!"
…
Luo Qingyun forced herself to swallow the blood in her mouth, and without even looking at the corpse of the demon at her feet, she squeezed the ribbon magic weapon in her hand and hurried out of the village anxiously.
Shuan'er... nothing can happen to her Shuan'er!
She walked quickly all the way to the corner of the village intersection, and suddenly collided with a large group of earthly demons.
Hundreds of pairs of scarlet eyes looked at her at the same time. Luo Qingyun's breath was suffocated, and then her heart became fierce. She retreated instead of advancing and rushed towards the crowd of demons.
The ribbon turned into a tough yet strong whip in her hands, whipping away one demon after another, quickly clearing a passage, then suppressing the pain in her chest, she rushed into the passage without hesitation, but faster than It was much slower before.
The demons who had been whipped away quickly surrounded her. Luo Qingyun was helpless, and was suddenly surrounded by danger.
When Xiang Shen came over, he saw this situation, his eyes were full of murderous intent, and he waved his sleeves in anger.
The violent wind swept through the air, like a cold wave from the Nine Netherworld, bypassing Luo Qingyun in the center, freezing hundreds of Earth Yin Demons into hundreds of ice lumps.
The fine cold wind blew by, and the ice lump seemed to be cut open with knives and shattered on the ground.
Luo Qingyun loosened her clenched left hand and stared at the scene in front of her in astonishment. After the ice lump shattered and collapsed, she finally saw Xiang Yu on the other side of the intersection.
"Shuan'er..."
Luo Qingyun murmured to herself. She wanted to go over and hug her right away, but for some reason, her feet seemed to be nailed to the spot, unable to move.
That ice-killing sword energy just now was... Shu'er?
Before she could clear her thoughts, several figures suddenly descended from the sky, turned into black light and spread out, massacring the remaining Yin Demons in an orderly manner.
One of the young men landed in front of Luo Qingyun, frowned and looked around, then asked with concern: "Girl, are you okay?"
Luo Qingyun was stunned for a moment and asked subconsciously: "Were these earthly demons just killed by immortals?"
"no."
The young man first denied it, and then said: "It's an elder in my family. He doesn't like to show his face."
Luo Qingyun secretly breathed a sigh of relief and expressed gratitude: "Thank you for your concern, I'm fine."
What's wrong with her? Why did she think it was Chu'er who moved her hand just now? Chuan'er is so young...
"mother!"
Xiang Shu ran over and hugged Luo Qingyun, burying his head on his waist and not looking at the young man.
She was worried about how to explain to Luo Qingyun, but she didn't want Wan Jianmen to arrive and rescue her.
And it was an old friend who came.
Not long after, the scattered disciples of Wanjian Sect gathered towards the young man, their expressions were a little strange, but when they saw the mortals around, they consciously did not say anything more.
"How are the casualties?"
The young man asked questions calmly and with an extraordinary demeanor. He had long lost the youthful feeling he had experienced in Siji City.
As soon as these words came out, someone in the team immediately replied: "Brother, there are not many casualties. Eighty percent of the people survived, and some of them suffered minor injuries."
The young man's expression softened slightly, and he was about to speak when he suddenly heard an old man in the team pointing at Xiang Shu and saying, "Brother, she is the pretty little girl I told you about."
The young man was startled for a moment, then lowered his head to look at Xiang Shen, but only saw the back of his head.
A few days ago, his junior brother told him about a good seedling, but he didn't pay much attention. He didn't expect to see it today.
It seems really destined.
The young man smiled slightly, looked at Luo Qingyun, and said in a gentle tone: "Madam, Lin Hai, the eldest disciple of Wanjian Sect, dare I ask your concubine's name?"
"You're welcome, Immortal."
Luo Qingyun forced a smile, "She takes my surname Luo and calls her Luo Shen."
Lin Hai nodded lightly, not having any feelings about this name, because in the Empress Temple, eight out of ten girls born in the past few decades have the character "苼" in their names.
Seeing Luo Qingyun's reaction, Lin Hai chuckled: "Isn't Madam a local?"
Luo Qingyun was startled for a moment, then asked: "How did the Immortal know that I am not a local?"
"If you were a member of my Wanjian Sect in the past, you would never show such a helpless expression as Madam when meeting monks like us."
Lin Hai took out a spirit-measuring bead, glanced down at Xiang Shu's back, and said, "The first rule of our Wanjian Sect is that we are not allowed to take mortals by force to become our disciples. If Madam doesn't want to, you can just say Come out, I won’t force you.”
Luo Qingyun was silent for a moment and said: "Chun'er is still young. If she has the qualifications, please ask the Immortal to take care of her. Don't let her suffer any injustice after entering the school."
When Xiang Shu heard this, he immediately raised his head and looked at Luo Qingyun in surprise.
Is she really willing to give it up?
Luo Qingyun lowered her eyes and smiled softly, "Shuan'er, if you are successful in your practice in the future, you don't have to be afraid if the devil attacks again."
Xiang Shu looked at Luo Qingyun silently for a moment, then suddenly turned around and looked directly at Lin Hai, and asked, "I want to take my mother to Wanjianmen with me."
The tone of this sentence was extremely affirmative, and Luo Qingyun actually heard an aura that could not be refuted.
When Lin Hai saw Xiang Shu's face, he suddenly froze on the spot. Over and over again in his mind, a cold face that had been pressed deep in his memory for a long time flashed across his mind.
The face in front of me is still childish, but there are three similarities.
The corner of Lin Hai's eyes seemed to have been punched hard, and he was a little sour. After a moment, he calmed down and spoke in a gentler voice: "Xiao Yu'er, big brother really wants to agree to you, but due to the sect's rules, if you can have a high-grade spiritual root, , I can make the decision to take your mother back to the clan. Whether it succeeds or not depends on you..."
Before Lin Hai finished speaking, Xiang Shu snatched the spirit-testing bead from his hand.
The next moment, the spirit-measuring orb shone brightly.
