After the middle-aged man put his palm on Huangfului's head, the little girl's condition suddenly changed. She actually stayed there as if she had lost her soul. Her appearance was exactly the same as when she walked here in a daze!
On the other hand, looking at this middle-aged man, his original amiable appearance was gone, his expression was cold, and his face was indifferent!
A faint red light emanated from this man, flowing to his right hand like a stream, and then enveloped Huangfului's whole body, undulating slowly and very regularly. There was a warmth around him, not cold, but This picture looks really weird.
This scene did not last long. After a while, the middle-aged man frowned slightly, as if he had discovered something that surprised him. He loosened his right hand and let go of Huangfului.
The weak light converged, leaving only the vague moonlight reflecting two figures, one large and one small. However, after his palm left, Huangfului still did not regain her consciousness and still stood there sluggishly.
"It's slower than I thought..." The middle-aged man murmured to himself, "It seems that it was extremely suppressed in its initial state, and was even almost sealed. In terms of growth, at least it is faster than I expected. It’s three years too late…”
He muttered to himself for a while, then suddenly shook his head and chuckled: "Haha, Master... I didn't expect that you, the old man, could do it to this extent. You must have paid a lot for this, right? In your current state, if you do this again, I'm afraid Maybe I will never be able to return to the imperial realm again in this life..."
He raised his gaze slightly and landed on Huangfului's face. The middle-aged man suddenly showed infinite tenderness in his eyes. He raised his hand and gently caressed the little girl's cheek. He murmured with a hint of recollection: "It's so similar... just like the original Jade." They are exactly the same..."
As if recalling some happy things, the man's mouth raised a smile, but then his eyes gradually turned cold, and the movements of his hands stopped, and he said in a cold tone: "It's a pity that you are his." daughter… "
"Huangfu Nan... I don't blame you when you reported me for stealing the magic weapon. Anyway, the master already knew it. He just didn't want to give up the relationship between master and disciple and naively wanted to wait for me to 'repent'. However, You used this to make Yu'er leave me, but it is absolutely unforgivable..."
"Although killing you now is as easy as squeezing an ant to death, I won't do that... Just wait, one day, I will let you know that being 'betrayed' by the person you are closest to is what it means. What a feeling..."
Muttering words that perhaps only he could understand, the middle-aged man slowly retracted his right hand. On the clenched right fist that seemed to be trembling, there were drops of bright red sperm dripping from between the fingers. …
…
Hiding his right hand under his sleeve, the middle-aged man turned his head and glanced at the right side, and said calmly: "Ghost Guard, come out."
The surroundings were quiet at this moment, and there were only two shadows of him and Huangfului in the night. His words were a bit abrupt, and they echoed in the empty valley, which was a bit inexplicable.
However, following his words, where he was looking, the shadow of one of the trees suddenly seemed to distort, and then... a figure walked out!
It can be said that before this person walked out on his own, there was no sign at all that there was a person here!
This man was wearing a pitch-black robe, and a broad hat covered his head. Not to mention the darkness of the night, you couldn't see his appearance clearly even during the day. The whole person seemed to be integrated with the night, even if he walked out at this moment. , and it's hard to feel his 'presence'.
The man known as the 'Ghost Guard' walked ten meters in front of the middle-aged man and stopped. He bowed slightly and said politely, and then said respectfully: "The Ghost Guard has seen the Deputy Sect Master... Deputy Sect Master, how could you... come here?"
Judging from his voice, he should be a middle-aged man. Of course, for a soul master, judging from his appearance or voice, thirty and sixty years old are actually about the same, and his true age cannot be judged from this.
The middle-aged man nodded casually, but did not answer the ghost guard's question. Instead, he asked: "Why are you here?"
His current appearance was completely different from when he faced Huangfului before. He didn't even look at the ghost guard. His expression was cold and his tone was extremely unruly. An invisible majesty emanated from him, which made the ghost guard Wei did not dare to be dissatisfied at all with his arrogance, and even shuddered in fear because he felt that he had asked unnecessary questions.
"Back to the deputy sect master, at the request of the young sect master, I brought the ghost slave and the blood seal beast here to practice. These people and the beast are about to reach the emperor state, so they need a more suitable environment and sufficient 'energy'."
The ghost guard lowered his head slightly and reported respectfully. Although with his status, he could exist side by side with some elders even in the sect, but he did not dare to be arrogant in front of the deputy sect leader.
"Ghost slave?" The middle-aged man raised his eyebrows slightly, "Is he the one who was brought back to the sect a few years ago and successfully practiced the "Blood Soul Dark Technique" without dying?"
Ghost Guard said: "Yes, it is that person."
The middle-aged man said with great interest: "I heard Mo Ni mention it casually last time, but I didn't expect that he actually succeeded? How far has the 'Ghost Slave' practiced the "Blood Soul Dark Technique"?"
Ghost Guard replied: "We have already reached the late stage of the 'Blood Realm'. I believe that if he can break through to the Soul Emperor Realm this time, his "Blood Soul Dark Technique" can also reach the early stage of the 'Soul Realm'."
"Oh?" The middle-aged man seemed a little surprised. He raised the corners of his mouth and said to himself, "There has not been a person in the sect who can cultivate to this level for hundreds of years. If so, then this person will be the best in the future. It may become a great strength for our sect.”
"But..." He paused and said, "The "Blood Soul Dark Technique" is a forbidden technique of our sect. Although it is powerful, it also has many variables and is extremely difficult to control. If it is not handled correctly, it will get out of control and become a big trouble. This One o'clock, is Mo Shuke ready?"
"Don't worry, deputy sect master, this ghost slave had a catastrophic disaster before he practiced the secret technique. The young sect master had already planted a restriction in his soul at that time. No matter how much this ghost slave forgets his humanity and becomes a demon, he will never be able to escape. Under the control of the Young Sect Leader."
"That's good, just let Mo Ni take care of himself. The sect master has let him practice in the outside world these years. He also hopes that he can take on important responsibilities in future plans. I hope he will not disappoint the sect master."
"Yes, I will definitely convey the deputy sect master's instructions to the young master."
The middle-aged man nodded, raised his hand and said: "Well, then you can go do your own thing... By the way, the blood energy here is too strong. It must be that the blood beast has been nesting here for a while. ? You'd better leave here as soon as possible. Although you seem to have sealed off this city, it will inevitably attract the attention of powerful people over time. If you make too much noise, it will not end well."
Ghost Guard said: "Don't worry, deputy sect master, I will act carefully. Now we have reached the final moment of the advancement of the ghost slave and the blood-spelled beast. I believe they will succeed soon. Then..."
"boom!!!"
At this moment, a deafening roar that echoed through the sky suddenly came from behind the ghost guard, interrupting his words.
The ghost guard's pupils shrank, and he suddenly turned around in shock. His eyes were like a torch and he looked at the location where the roar came from - that's right behind Lishui City!

PS: Let me explain here that the time when things happened here has been slightly modified. It was mentioned before that it was after Bai Yunfei's battle ended, and it was corrected to happen at the same time when Bai Yunfei fought with the enemy.
