Chapter 307

Heng Xian's heart skipped a beat. This old monk had been looking at him with a strange expression just now; he wouldn't have seen through his lie, would he?

Nangong Liluo turned back and asked: "Does the Master have anything else?"

Master Shancun put his palms together, his face full of benevolence: "Little Benefactor Heng has cleared himself of the suspicion of being a demon traitor, which is a cause for celebration, but this old monk still has one thing I don't understand!"

Nangong Liluo waved her sleeves: "Master, feel free to speak!"

Master Shancun said: "Where did Little Benefactor Heng get that blood-colored clothing that ignores the ancient restrictions of the Jianhai? And how did you know this blood-colored clothing could break the Jianhai restrictions?"

Everyone also looked at Heng Xian with burning gazes.

Heng Xian breathed a sigh of relief. So it was this. He said half-truthfully: "A few years ago, I bought a stone from a market that was said to have been unearthed from this Jianhai ancient ruin. It recorded the detailed production process of the blood-colored clothing to break the restrictions, so I ran all the way here to try my luck. It's useless now, so I'll give it to the Master!"

As he spoke, he took out the blood-colored clothing and threw it over.

Master Shancun reached out and caught it gently, signaling for Jiang Yuansong and Zhou Daoling to watch it together.

Jin Shanghua suddenly said: "I'm afraid that's not right, is it?"

Nangong Liluo frowned slightly: "Hmm? What's not right?"

Jin Shanghua said: "Even if there was blood-colored clothing to break the restrictions, why did Heng Xian know everything inside like the back of his hand after he went in?"

Yu Qiuyi and the group also looked at Heng Xian. This was exactly what they were curious about. Back then, they had guessed that the "Cat-faced Man" was a disciple of some ancestor who participated in exploring the ancient ruins. Now that it was Heng Xian, this "wandering abandoned disciple", it was completely different.

Nangong Liluo glanced at Heng Xian.

Heng Xian chuckled and pointed to his forehead: "If I said it was the soul of the War God Palace Sect Master who entrusted it to me in a dream, would you believe it? Of course, I relied on my brain. Everything in the ancient ruins has traces to follow and rules to check. As long as you are careful, you can naturally find the rules!"

As soon as this sentence came out, a comparison was inexplicably created, making the disciples of each sect seem a bit stupid.

Si Tu Nan Fei, Zhou Zhan Yi, and the group had ugly expressions. They wanted to refute, but they didn't know where to start.

Jin Shanghua opened his mouth, really having nothing to ask, so he had to say: "So that's how it is!"

At this time, Master Shancun put away the blood-colored clothing and said with a burning gaze: "Thank you, Little Benefactor Heng, for your generosity. This blood-colored clothing is of great importance, so this old monk will keep it. However... it is said that Little Benefactor Heng can fight a hundred alone; I don't know if it's true or false?"

He had reached the main point!

Si Tu Nan Fei and the group stared at Heng Xian. Everyone still had lingering fears about Heng Xian's terror.

Heng Xian just cupped his hands and smiled faintly: "It was just the senior brothers and sisters showing mercy!"

This lukewarm answer made people very dissatisfied.

Master Shancun said to Nangong Liluo: "This old monk has an uninvited request!"

Nangong Liluo's face was cold: "This is the last thing. Don't be long-winded again, otherwise don't blame me for not being polite."

Master Shancun laughed: "Little Benefactor Heng fighting a hundred alone is rare in the world and has already exceeded this old monk's cognition. May I be allowed to check Little Benefactor Heng's body? Do not misunderstand; this old monk is just worried that the little benefactor has mistakenly learned demonic arts or demon techniques, eventually harming others and himself!"

"That's right!"

Jin Shanghua, Shen Santian, and Li Chundao and the group echoed one after another. Fighting a hundred alone—they really couldn't understand it either.

Nangong Liluo hesitated. Cultivators most taboo others probing their bodies, not only exposing everything to outsiders with no secrets, but also if someone did something to them, they were afraid their lifetime of cultivation would be destroyed. She asked Heng Xian: "Disciple, if you don't want to, Master will take you away!"

Everyone looked at Heng Xian, waiting for his answer.

However, Heng Xian was very generous and walked toward Master Shancun himself: "Master is compassionate; I naturally trust the Master. I am upright and honest, so feel free to check!"

Master Shancun nodded slightly, extended two fingers, and a hazy Buddha light flashed out, turning into two phantom fingers that pressed on Heng Xian's heart gate.

Heng Xian only felt a hot, gentle power without any hostility walk through his body, and then it disappeared.

Master Shancun withdrew his hand and recited a Buddhist chant: "Amitabha! There is not a trace of demon energy in the little benefactor's body. The spiritual power is pure, the Golden Dan is upright and bright, and the meridians are like ancient dragons of the Great Way. It is admirable!"

Nangong Liluo breathed a sigh of relief, bowed to Master Shancun, Zhou Daoling, and Jiang Yuansong, and said: "Disciple, let's go!"

She turned and left first.

Zhou Daoling, seeing this, hurriedly followed behind: "Miss Nangong, Zhou will see you off!"

Heng Xian nodded to Ji Yaoyue, Lin Shuyu, and the others below and followed behind Nangong Liluo and the other two.

Until the three had walked far away, Jin Shanghua asked the old monk Shancun hesitantly: "Master, this child... really didn't practice demonic techniques?"

Shen Santian also said: "Yes, if he didn't practice, how could he fight a hundred alone? And how would he know the Demon Escape Technique?"

Si Tu Nan Fei and the group of juniors also had suspicious expressions.

Master Shancun stroked his beard and said: "Why this child knows the Demon Escape Technique, this old monk does not know, but this child's Dantian Dan chamber is as vast as the sea, far exceeding ordinary Yuan Dan cultivators. The Golden Dan in the Dan chamber seems to have been tempered a thousand times, as pure as fairy light brushing away dust.

His Yuan Dan power is dozens of times stronger than ordinary Yuan Dan cultivators, and coupled with the fact that he seems to have practiced some kind of body-refining technique, his combat power is truly extraordinary!

And it doesn't stop there. Ordinary people will take some detours in their practice, leading to some flaws in their bodies, but he doesn't. His practice is flawless. It seems there is a very powerful teacher guiding him in secret, but it is definitely not Nangong Liluo!

In addition, his Holy Body..."

Speaking to this point, he paused.

The sect elders looked at each other.

Jiang Yuansong asked: "And what about his physique?"

Master Shancun said in a deep voice: "Eight-opening pulse, a work of nature, containing the Great Way. Within the Eight Underworlds, the Niwan Palace and the Purple Mansion each naturally nurture a sword Qi. It is an extremely rare sword body, even earlier than the ancient times!"

"If the identity of the Sword Saint reincarnation has not been confirmed, then this child... has a high probability!"

"This..." Everyone present gasped.

Heng Xian is possibly... the Sword Saint reincarnation???

Jiang Yuansong stroked his beard and sighed: "No wonder Liluo is so concerned. She has picked up a treasure!"

Nangong Liluo picked up Ma Xiaohua halfway, and by the way, found the monkey "Goudan". The three master and disciples left first.

Of course, Zhou Daoling, the super expert of the Dayan Sect, was also following!

At this moment, this big shot with super combat power in the Eastern Region was as shy and reserved as a little boy, walking through the air while pointing at the sea of clouds all around: "Miss Nangong, look at these clouds; don't they look like that cotton candy when we explored the Black Heart Cave barrier together?"

Nangong Liluo said casually: "I forgot long ago!"

"Doesn't matter!" Zhou Daoling laughed and pointed at a wild goose flying by, "Look at this little cutie; doesn't it look like that little sparrow that pooped on my head when you and I met seventy-six years ago?"

Nangong Liluo: "I forgot that too!"

Zhou Daoling looked doting: "Ah, doesn't matter..."

"Tsk tsk tsk..."

Ma Xiaohua, who was following far behind, shook his head and said: "It's really hard for Senior Zhou!"

Heng Xian was looking toward the direction of the vast sea, wondering that if he didn't go back, how would Baoyu, Tao Sanniang, and the others make a living?

Hearing this, he looked at the two people in front in surprise and said: "The picture is very harmonious. I haven't been in the sect for these years; has Master fallen in love?"

"How could that be!" Ma Xiaohua shrugged, "You disappeared for four years, and Master was in closed-door cultivation for four years. This time she broke through to the Nascent Soul stage, and this Senior Zhou Daoling, it is rumored, is Master's pursuer from back then..."

Heng Xian hesitated: "Are you planning to marry Master off to him? How much dowry can he give?"

Ma Xiaohua's face turned red: "Little Junior Brother, how can you... say such reasonable words? I've long wanted to marry Master off!"

"Great minds think alike!"

The two junior brothers bumped fists.

"Goudan", squatting on Heng Xian's shoulder, laughed "ga ga".
