Chapter 240 Too Good a Character? ? ?
So, Princess Huo Huo forced a smile and followed Hu Daji toward Shen Cangxuan's courtyard.
Finally, Princess Huo Huo met her master, whom she had been longing to see day and night.
At this moment, she rarely showed her childlike nature.
She stepped forward lightly and grabbed Shen Cangxuan's sleeve tightly with both hands.
Her eyes reddened, her voice trembled with sobs, and she began to wail.
"Master, I almost didn't see you again! The journey was so miserable!"
Shen Cangxuan looked at the disciple's clone, who was still at the Nascent Soul stage, and felt a surge of emotion.
This acting is getting more and more exaggerated; it's not sincere at all.
Although she was wailing so loudly, upon closer inspection, not a single tear had fallen.
However, considering that this rebellious disciple had gone through countless hardships to return to the sect, they decided to take action.
He suppressed his helplessness and held back for a long time before finally managing to push her hand away.
"Alright! It's not too late to cry when your master is really gone. Let's talk about serious matters first."
Shen Cangxuan spoke with a hint of reproach in his voice.
“Master, I’ve finally come back, and my heart is full of longing for you. How can you say that?”
Princess Huo Huo muttered with a wronged expression.
Shen Cangxuan rolled his eyes inwardly, thinking to himself that this clone was exactly the same as the original, without any difference.
Fortunately, only one of them came back; if all three clones had returned together...
I'm afraid I'll be so angry that I'll die before I've even had my fill of being a master.
Shen Cangxuan teased, "Why don't we hug each other and have a good cry? That way you can properly show your filial piety?"
Upon hearing this, Princess Huo Huo reacted as if she had been burned, and quickly let go of her master's sleeve.
She thought to herself, "Forget it. Just thinking about that scene is terrifying; I can't even imagine it."
Princess Huo Huo quickly changed her mind and directly asked a question she had always wanted to ask but hadn't yet dared to.
"Master, tell me the truth, are you a Tribulation Transcending cultivator?"
Shen Cangxuan was somewhat baffled, and really couldn't understand his little apprentice's peculiar thought process.
But he still patiently replied, "Why are you asking this?"
Do you think that I, as a master with Golden Core cultivation, can no longer control a Nascent Soul disciple like you?
Princess Huo Huo quickly and honestly shook her head; she had never had such a thought.
Although her master didn't discipline her much on a daily basis, she could genuinely feel Shen Cangxuan's sincere care for his disciples.
The master adopted a laissez-faire approach to their education.
As long as nothing catastrophic happens, the master generally won't interfere too much.
However, aside from herself, none of the other senior brothers and sisters were the type to cause trouble.
So every time her master saw her, he had a terrible headache, thinking she was a complete and utterly rebellious disciple.
“Master, I feel that you are knowledgeable and have a high level of cultivation, so you can help me answer a question that has been puzzling me.”
Princess Huo Huo said with a face full of anticipation.
"Don't flatter me, my head can't take it. Just tell me what it is."
Shen Cangxuan waved his hand and said directly.
Upon hearing this, Princess Huo Huo quickly took out the Evil-Slaying Sword and then recounted the origin of the weapon in detail.
Afterwards, she specially brought Shen Cangxuan to the outside of the Shadow Moon Sect and personally demonstrated the previous situation to him.
"Master, what's going on with this weapon of mine?" Princess Huo Huo asked, her face full of doubt.
"Is it possible that your character is so bad that even this exorcism tool doesn't want you to use it?"
Shen Cangxuan teased him half-jokingly.
Princess Huo Huo was about to retort, but before she could even open her mouth...
Shen Cangxuan then used his magic, manipulating the evil spirit with his spiritual power, and swung it towards the evil spirit.
Suddenly, a large number of the evil spirits within the barrier disappeared. However, Po Xie suddenly flew back and rushed straight towards Shen Cangxuan.
Shen Cangxuan reacted quickly and cast a spell to freeze it, but Po Xie continued to struggle desperately.
The spiked club trembled violently, as if it were vying with Shen Cangxuan.
Seeing this, Princess Huo Huo had no choice but to step forward and take Po Xie away.
Surprisingly, as soon as Po Xie returned to Princess Huo Huo's hands, it immediately quieted down.
"Master? What's going on? Is it because you're too kind?"
Princess Huo Huo asked, looking completely bewildered.
The moment she uttered those provocative words to her master, she received a light tap on the head.
"You're so disrespectful all day long, don't you know how to respect your elders?" Shen Cangxuan said, feigning anger.
“Master, you are famous for your double standards. You allow officials to set fires but forbid ordinary people to light lamps.”
Princess Huo Huo muttered a protest.
But as soon as she finished speaking, Princess Huo Huo found herself muted and unable to make a sound.
She thought helplessly to herself, "Fine, what can I do? They have such high cultivation levels, I really can't afford to offend them! They actually cast a spell on me directly."
Seeing this, Shen Cangxuan was filled with doubt and decided to try again.
He turned to look at Hu Daji, who was also at the Nascent Soul stage, and said:
"Elder Hu, why don't you try this exorcism technique and see what happens?"
Hu Daji nodded slightly, stepped forward, channeled his spiritual power, and carefully grasped the Evil-Slaying Sword.
He brandished the Evil-Slaying Sword and slammed it down fiercely at the evil spirits within the barrier.
In an instant, those evil spirits were severely injured and a large number of them vanished.
But before everyone could even rejoice, Po Xie suddenly lost control, changed direction, and frantically attacked Hu Daji.
Hu Daji's expression changed drastically, and he quickly used magic to defend himself.
Ke Po Xie's attacks were extremely fierce, and he struggled to defend himself.
Upon seeing this, Princess Huohuo rushed forward and snatched Poxie away.
Strangely enough, once the evil spirit was in her hands, it returned to calm.
Looking at the Evil-Slaying Sword in her hand, Princess Huo Huo pondered to herself.
It seems that the only way to fully understand the situation regarding the exorcism is to look for answers among the demons.
However, with the evil spirits now rampaging across the human lands and countless lives being ravaged, she simply could no longer wait like this.
Princess Huo Huo frowned, approached Shen Cangxuan, and said solemnly:
“Master, I think the secret to exorcising evil can perhaps only be unlocked by the demon race.”
But the situation with the evil spirits is urgent. I want to take the exorcist out and deal with these evil spirits first.
Shen Cangxuan pondered for a moment, nodded slightly, and said:
"Alright, but you must be careful and cautious in your actions, and never act rashly."
"Master, don't you trust me to handle things?"
Shen Cangxuan thought to himself: It's precisely because you're in charge that I don't trust you to do things.
He was worried that going out would only lead to trouble or disaster, and he was afraid that he would corrupt the white crane as well.
When Baihe learned that he could go out with his junior uncle, his eyes lit up instantly, and he jumped up excitedly.
He said excitedly, "Junior Uncle, really? I can go on a training trip with you? That's wonderful!"
Although I am only at the Foundation Establishment stage now, I will definitely behave well and not cause you any trouble!
Princess Huo Huo smiled slightly as she looked at the white crane's excited expression and said:
"Don't worry, even if there's trouble, I'm sure you'll win."
