Cultivator Returns to the City

Chapter 238: Soul Pearl

Naturally, Yin Xiu doesn't care about public opinion on the Internet, he just does whatever he needs to do like a normal person. ︽,

In comparison, Zhou Ting was not so relaxed. Although she was not severely punished, she was criticized, which also caused her to hurriedly return to the Dragon Soul Brigade's base with her team members, without having time to check Yin Xiu's identity information in detail.

Zhou Ting had already thought about taking some time to investigate Yin Xiu during her stay in Yinhai, but now she could only wait until the next time she came to Yinhai.

Although the so-called 'Silver Sea Immortal' incident on the Internet has not completely stopped for a while, at least it is still mentioned and discussed from time to time in some small forums and various chat groups, but the impact has been with time. Gradually fade.

In reality, it didn't have much impact at all. People who should go to work should continue to go to work, and people who should go to school should continue to go to school.

The employees of Xianzi only took half a day off and then continued to work in the company.

Except for the large area of ruins caused by the soul beasts breaking through and suppressing it, the impact of what happened that day was basically not felt.

Those pagoda fragments, statue fragments and other things in the ruins have already been removed by the personnel of the relevant departments.

It can be said that except for the ruins that have begun to be cleaned and prepared for reconstruction, there are no traces left.

However, Ji Xueqing made a special call to Yin Xiu to inquire about the company's situation.

She also learned from the Internet that such a big incident had happened in Yinhai, and the incident occurred not far from Platinum Tower, so naturally she was a little worried about whether something happened to the company.

Ji Xueqing felt relieved after Yin Xiu told her that everything in the company was fine and had not been affected in any way.

As time goes by, this storm gradually calms down...

"Mr. Yin. This is an invitation personally sent by Secretary Li from the Municipal Party Committee Secretariat."

Zhang Yuan, the secretary that the company had just assigned to Yin Xiu two days ago, walked into Yin Xiu's office with a very delicate gold-gilded invitation in her hand.

Yin Xiu was slightly surprised when he heard this, raised his head and asked, "Oh? What kind of invitation is it?"

"Secretary Li said it was an invitation for a charity auction, and the city invited many celebrities and entrepreneurs to participate." Zhang Yuan replied.

"Well, you can leave it here first." Yin Xiu nodded.

Zhang Yuan responded quickly: "Okay."

After Zhang Yuan went out, Yin Xiu picked up the invitation and looked at it. The invitee written on it was in the name of Xianzi Company. Not Yin Xiu personally.

No wonder Mayor Wang asked his secretary to send the invitation directly without calling him in advance.

Since it was the company that was invited, the invitation would naturally be sent directly to the company. If Wang Sixian invited Yin Xiu personally, it would naturally be different.

The reason why Mayor Wang asked his secretary to go and deliver the invitations in person was probably because he knew that Yin Xiu was now the vice president of Xianzi. If it were other invited companies, they probably wouldn't have received this kind of treatment.

After all, Secretary Li is Mayor Wang's first secretary. Under normal circumstances, it is not his turn to do this kind of errand work in person, and ordinary people are not qualified to let him run errands in person.

"Xue Qing is still in Kyoto. It seems that I can only attend this charity auction in person."

Yin Xiu put down the invitation casually. Talking quietly to himself.

Since it was an invitation from the city, there were always people going to this charity auction. Now the only person suitable to go to the company is Yin Xiu himself.

This kind of charity auction is supposed to be a simple matter where you just buy one or two things and donate some money for charity or something.

Yin Xiu didn't take it too seriously and put the invitation in the drawer of his desk.

The charity auction is Saturday night, and there are still a few days left.

When he returned home after get off work in the afternoon, Yin Xiu used his spiritual sense to check the body of the soul beast that had been refined for so many days in the heaven-refining furnace. Now the soul beast's soul beads had actually been refined. Only the last bit of its body was left.

However, the self-consciousness of the soul beast is still in the soul bead, and it is estimated that it will take some time to truly refine and erase its consciousness.

Yin Xiu is not in a hurry to do this for a while. If he wanted to worship the second soul, he would have to find time to retreat for at least three to five days.

Sacrificing and refining the second spirit does not mean that it can be completed in a few hours, or in a day and a half.

"Master, I'm back!"

Yin Xiu sat in the living room for a while, and Ning Yuejing came back from school with her schoolbag on her back. Although she still has to go to school for two self-study classes in the evening, she still likes to run back after school every afternoon during this period.

Even most of the time, Yin Xiu took her out to eat.

Yin Xiu could tell that Xiao Jing wanted to spend more time with him every day, especially sitting and eating together. Enjoy that cozy feeling.

"Come, sit down and rest for a while." Yin Xiu said with a smile, "I heard you said two days ago that the school was going to have a mid-term exam. How are you? Are the results out today?"

Ning Yuejing took off her schoolbag and sat down next to Yin Xiu. The spirit that was alone in the corner flew over again obediently. He was holding a spiritual stone and sitting on her shoulders, still looking a little lazy with his thin legs dangling.

Ning Yuejing said to Yin Xiu with a hint of joy: "The results have come out. Master, please wait a moment and I will show you the test paper!"

Xiao Jing's personality is gradually becoming cheerful and sunny. Although she is still so cold and indifferent most of the time, she often shows the attachment of an ordinary little girl to Yin Xiu, and sometimes You can clearly feel the joy and joy flowing from her body.

He is no longer as indifferent as before, and his whole person feels darker, making it difficult to get close to him.

"Okay! Master, let's see how many points Xiao Jing got in this test." Yin Xiu smiled gently, with a hint of praise for Xiao Jing in his words.

Show him the test paper, it must mean he did well on the exam. And then, obviously I hope to get some praise and encouragement from him.

Ning Yuejing quickly took out a few neat test papers from her schoolbag and handed them to Yin Xiu, "Master, here they are."

Yin Xiu took the test paper and looked at it. He did very well indeed. Naturally, Yin Xiu did not hesitate to praise Xiao Jing. He encouraged her well.

Although Ning Yuejing didn't express anything obviously, if you look closely at her eyes, as well as the subtle changes between her eyebrows and the corners of her lips, you can still see that she was in a very happy mood after hearing Yin Xiu's praise. .

The stretched and slender eyebrows are slightly raised, and the corners of the lips are slightly curved. Her delicate facial features are completely relaxed and at ease. Although there is no obvious change in expression, such as a smile, you can clearly feel the atmosphere of relaxation and joy exuding from her body.

Although Ning Yuejing's personality has gradually become more cheerful, she still doesn't express her inner joy very obviously. If you are not familiar with her, or if you don't carefully observe the subtle changes in her expression, it will be difficult to see her mood swings.

It always seems to be so plain, deserted, and untroubled.

"Master. I want to eat the food you cooked today, okay?" Ning Yuejing suddenly said. Clear and bright eyes looked at Yin Xiu with a hint of longing.

Yin Xiu only bought some ingredients to cook when he occasionally felt like it. Most of the time, he took Ning Yuejing to eat out.

"Do you like to eat Master's cooking?" Yin Xiu asked with a smile.

"Yes." Ning Yuejing nodded immediately without any hesitation, with a hopeful look on her face, "The food cooked by Master is different from the food eaten outside. Xiao Jing likes the food cooked by Master better."

After a slight pause, before Yin Xiu could speak, Ning Yuejing said again: "Master. From now on, let's go shopping and cook at home, okay? Xiao Jing also wants to cook for Master."

Yin Xiu probably understood what Ning Yuejing was thinking, and maybe this would make her feel more like 'home'.

"Okay. From now on, as long as Master is free, we will buy things and cook." Yin Xiu nodded and agreed without hesitation.

"Well! Thank you, Master!" Ning Yuejing was very happy. He actually showed a rare smile.

For so long, the total number of times Yin Xiu has seen Xiao Jing smile is only two or three times, which shows that Xiao Jing is indeed very happy at the moment.

It was rare for Yin Xiu to see Ning Yuejing smile again, and he felt relieved and smiled.

After another two days, the soul beast in the Heaven Refining Furnace was finally completely refined. Its consciousness was completely obliterated, leaving only the soul bead itself and the pure soul power left after refining its body.

Yin Xiu took some time to reintegrate all the soul power in the Heaven Refining Furnace into the soul bead.

When he took out the soul bead, even Yin Xiu couldn't help but marvel. Even based on its appearance, this soul bead was even more impressive than the best pearls and jade in the world.

The surface is shiny and round. There is a hint of mystery in the deep black light, like a whirlpool. Just looking at it can involve people's souls, making people unconsciously trapped in it and unable to extricate themselves!

In addition, in the depths of this soul bead, a not-so-clear 'rune' can be vaguely seen. Seeing this rune in the soul bead, Yin Xiu once again thought of the relevant records about soul beasts and soul beads in the world of cultivation.

Only soul beasts that have survived at least one level of heavenly tribulation can condense such 'runes' in the soul bead. This is the mark left by the interweaving of laws after experiencing the baptism of heavenly tribulation.

Once the soul beasts survive the three heavenly tribulations and finally ascend to the immortal world smoothly, the 'rune' imprint in their soul beads intertwined with the laws of heaven and earth will turn into a very powerful innate magical power.

After seeing the 'rune' in the soul bead, Yin Xiu was not only surprised, but also completely certain that the soul beast should have the strength to survive the tribulation period in its heyday.

To put it this way, he got a big advantage.

If the soul beast hadn't been suppressed by the seal for too long, causing its strength to be greatly reduced, and if he had to face the soul beast at its peak, Yin Xiu could only protect himself, and it would be almost impossible to refine that soul beast. things.

At this moment, Yin Xiu also had to sigh that the person who sealed and suppressed the soul beast back then was really powerful, and he also understood better why the person who suppressed the soul beast back then was also a pagoda, a twelve-capital soul-locking array, and even that one Cut off the mysterious 'wooden strip'... so many means to suppress the seal.

Yin Xiu didn't know that the complete seal actually included an altar and a stone slab engraved with formation patterns. (To be continued...) u
