Afternoon.
After Nie Qian complained a lot, she saw Nie Tian fell asleep after eating and drinking, so she could only stop unwillingly.
The animal bone that Nie Tian brought back from the lottery meeting was always in his hand, but Nie Qian did not find any sign of spiritual resonance between Nie Tian and the animal bone.
"What an idiot. He stole so many high-level spiritual weapons and didn't know which one to choose..." Nie Qian muttered softly.
"It's useless. Even if he takes the highest quality bead, it will be of no use to him. None of the seven spiritual weapons are suitable for him. Let him participate in the lottery meeting. I knew there would be nothing to gain. ." At this moment, Nie Donghai's voice sounded from outside the door.
"Dad, Mr. Liu." When Nie Qian looked back, she found Nie Donghai and Liu Yan from the Lingyun Sect coming hand in hand.
Nie Donghai took a loving look at Nie Tian, who was lying on the bed with his legs in the air, sleeping soundly in the afternoon. He sighed softly and said with a sad face: "A few days ago, I quietly tried to determine the aura attributes in this child, but …”
After a pause, he continued: "Maybe it's because of my lack of realm. I didn't feel any proper spiritual energy fluctuations in him. I knew then that even if he participated in the lottery meeting, I'm afraid he wouldn't gain much. .”
"It's because I understood this that I didn't push for him to participate in the lottery meeting."
Nie Qian was startled and said in a daze: "But after I begged you, dad, don't you still..."
Nie Donghai smiled bitterly, "I am still a little unwilling, and I still hope that some miracle may happen. Looking at it now, I think too much."
"It's all my fault." Nie Qian blamed herself.
At this moment, she realized that Nie Donghai loved Nie Tian as much as she did, and she finally understood that Nie Donghai would rather have another conflict with everyone in the Nie family in order to give Nie Tian a chance.
Even though he knows that his efforts may be in vain.
"Let me take a closer look." While Liu Yan was speaking, he walked to the window edge and stretched out his hand towards the sleeping Nie Tian.
A white halo emanated from the palm of Liu Yan's left hand, and its warm luster made his hand look like white jade.
Liu Yan's hand gently pressed on Nie Tian's lower abdomen. He squinted his eyes and looked focused. The spiritual power in his palm was like hair, starting from Nie Tian's lower abdomen and slowly penetrating to Nie Tian's limbs.
Nie Tian seemed to be quite comfortable in his deep sleep. A smile of enjoyment appeared on his chubby little face, and he even snored, as if he was having a sweet dream.
The warm jade-like white light gradually emerged from Nie Tian's skin and flesh, making Nie Tian look like a porcelain doll under the light.
However, Nie Donghai and Nie Qian looked at Nie Tian with frowns on their faces.
They knew very well that the jade-like luster came from Liu Yan's spiritual power.
Those spiritual powers wandered around in Nie Tian's body. Since they did not cause other changes, it meant that there was no other kind of spiritual power in Nie Tian's body.
After a while, Liu Yan gently retracted his hand, turned around and shook his head towards Nie Donghai.
Nie Donghai and Nie Qian both looked miserable.
"Ordinarily this shouldn't be the case. I know the qualifications of my junior sister. Not only in Black Cloud City, but also in our Lingyun Sect, her talent is outstanding. Even if she is combined with a mortal with no talent, her talent will be outstanding." The child will also inherit part of her talent, which shouldn’t be the case.”
Liu Yan also looked confused, "But I checked carefully and found that I really didn't feel any special spiritual energy fluctuations in Nie Tian's body."
"Hey..." Nie Donghai sighed, looking disappointed.
"However." Liu Yan changed the topic and frowned: "Nie Tian's energy and blood are very strong. I saw it during the lottery meeting. He is stronger and more powerful than all the children of the same age. His flesh and blood are very strong. His muscles and bones are very tough, if you remove the factor of spiritual power and simply compete in strength and brute force, he is probably unmatched by anyone in the Nie family's generation."
"What's the use?" Nie Qian's face was full of bitterness. "Those children are still young now. When they grow up and can understand adults' words, they will start to practice spiritual power. Spiritual power is the measure of a person's Qi refining. The foundation of a warrior's strength is also the true source of his strength. How far can he go with brute force alone?"
"This is what I'm worried about." Nie Donghai added, "Those children who have special spiritual attributes in their bodies can practice spiritual arts that are consistent with the attributes in their bodies. Each of them will make rapid progress and lay the foundation early. That's the only way Only by the age of fifteen can our children reach the ninth level of Qi Refining, and gain the favor of your Lingyun Sect."
"Like Nie Tian, who has not shown any obvious cultivation attributes, his cultivation speed will naturally be much slower. This means that when he is fifteen years old, it is almost impossible for him to enter the ninth level of Qi refining. The gate of Lingyun Sect , will be permanently closed to him, unable to go to your Lingyun Sect to practice, and his life will be limited to our Nie family."
Liu Yan came to Nie Donghai, patted his shoulder comfortingly, and said sincerely: "Not joining the Lingyun Sect is not necessarily a bad thing. Many of our Lingyun Sect's talents died in the middle of the journey. If you want to To reach the top, there are desperate situations every step of the way, and those who can overcome them time and time again are those who have great luck."
"It is not a blessing to live a peaceful life like Nie Tian."
Liu Yan's words reminded Nie Donghai of his deceased daughter Nie Jin. His heart ached and he was speechless.
"It's over here. I'm going back to Lingyun Sect. When the junior sister was on the mountain, she was guided by me. I value and love the junior sister very much. Brother, don't worry, I will hurt her. Personally, I will also take it to heart to look for it, and I will inform you as soon as I have any news."
After saying that, Liu Yan patted Nie Donghai's shoulder gently before walking away.
"Thank you, Mr. Liu, for your kindness." Nie Donghai thanked him.
"Thank you, Mr. Liu." Nie Qian also said hurriedly.
The two wanted to say goodbye, but when they arrived at the door, they realized that Liu Yan was walking faster and faster, and disappeared in an instant.
"Mr. Liu treats us well." Nie Donghai pondered for a while, frowned and said, "If Mr. Liu hadn't been here today, those tribesmen... I'm afraid they wouldn't have given up on Nie Tianshan."
"After Xiaotian and I left, were those guys?" Nie Qian said bitterly.
Nie Donghai nodded slowly, "Of course there was a fuss. Everyone was biting the excuse that Nie Tian was not a direct descendant of the Nie family, saying that he was messing around in the lottery meeting and insisted on me punishing him. Fortunately, Mr. Liu helped to speak. Let them not dare to continue to hold people accountable, otherwise even I won’t be able to hold them back.”
"It's a pity that Mr. Liu is gone and he won't come often in the future." Nie Qian sighed.
"As long as I am still the head of the Nie family, I will not allow them to be arrogant!" Nie Donghai snorted.
"I'm just afraid, daddy, you won't be able to sit in that position for too long." Nie Qian smiled bitterly.
"If I can sit one more day, I will sit one more day. I will always seek justice for you and Jin'er!" Nie Donghai looked resolute. After leaving these words, he also left from here.
Looking at the late figure of his hero, Nie Qian's face was sad, and she sat down in front of the door in a daze.
In the room, Nie Tian was still sleeping, and the few traces of spiritual power left on his body by Liu Yan's exploration remained illuminated for a long time.
Nie Tian's skin and flesh, moistened by those spiritual lights, trembled slightly like water waves.
Every time his skin and flesh trembled slightly, the spiritual light would become a little dimmer, as if it was greedily absorbed and refined by his flesh and blood.
Neither Liu Yan, nor Nie Donghai, nor Nie Qian knew anything about all this.
Normally, Nie Tian would only take a nap for half an hour.
But today, he abnormally slept for two full hours. It was not until there was no trace of spiritual luster or fluctuation in his body that he woke up feeling comfortable.
