Chapter 3 Save My Mother

"Don't be afraid. My junior brother and I are not bad people. You are seriously injured. If you don't get treatment in time, it will affect your future practice. So, you come out first. I have some soul-replenishing pills and rejuvenation pills..."

"Brother, don't!"

Unfortunately, it was too late. As soon as Xue Changsheng finished speaking, Mu Canghe, who was about to step forward, was forced to draw his sword to block the attack of the sword shield.

Fortunately, the sword energy did not kill him, and Mu Canghe only suffered a minor injury to his wrist.

"Don't go any further. Swords are ruthless and they don't recognize people. Why don't you stay here and I'll go get the master."

"Go quickly!" Mu Canghe pinched his injured wrist, still feeling frightened.

If he had drawn his sword a little later, half of his head would have been chopped off by now!
Xue Changsheng naturally did not dare to stay any longer. He stepped on the flying magic weapon and headed straight for the main hall of the Shengguo Sect.

This battle with the Infant-Devouring Sect is nearing its end.

The evil sects are only involved in interests, and there is no morality to speak of. Moreover, this time it was the Infant-Devouring Sect that took the initiative to declare war and provoke, while the other evil sects have no intention of going to war with the righteous cultivators right now.

So no one came to their aid, but the Shengguo Sect had two nearby sects that could provide support. The victory or defeat had already been decided. At this time, the teachers and leaders of the three sects were gathering in the hall to discuss whether to fight back.

"What!!! Where is the person? Is he still alive?"

The teachers who were halfway through the discussion were all shocked when they heard the news. The first one who could not sit still was Elder Lan Fei of Fengqi Sect. She was the most powerful female cultivator present and was known for her straightforward temper. If the young disciple beside her had not grabbed her sleeve in time, she would have slammed the table and stood up to grab Xue Changsheng by the collar and ask him a question.

"To reply to Elder Lan Fei, they are all still alive, but their situation is not good. They are very vigilant, and the sword energy shield is also very protective. If you get close, there will be sword energy attacks. I am afraid that using external force to break the shield is not advisable. Please think of another way, teachers."

"Of course not!"

Lan Fei was almost amused by this stupid boy. He knew that sword energy could hurt people, which meant they were getting close! Everything about the Hengyue Sword Art was something that every sect disciple had to learn when they entered the sect. This stupid boy didn't even know the taboos!

She had no time to pay attention to him. She stood up, waved her sleeves, and disappeared into the hall in a flash of her red skirt.

……

At this time, the small hilltop covered with broken trees and branches was almost full of onlookers. Most of them were like Mu Canghe, who had sensed the aura of the Hengyue Sword and came to see what was going on.

One of the mother and daughter protected by the sword energy must be the inheritor of the sword technique. After all, only the person chosen by the sword technique can activate the inherited sword talisman that the Hengyue Sword Master had cast so widely.

But... there are two people being protected inside, which one is the successor?
Has the inheritor joined the sect?

If not, the people present now each represent the sect behind them. If possible, they would naturally want to bring the inheritor of the Hengyue Sword Technique to their own sect to strengthen themselves.

The Shengguo Sect was definitely in trouble. Although the support from the two other sects was timely, they had just experienced a great battle with the Infant-Devouring Sect and suffered heavy casualties within the sect. It was not appropriate for them to accept new disciples right away.

The only ones present who could accept them were Wandao Sect and Fengqi Sect.

"Everyone move away." Lan Fei was the first to arrive. Seeing so many people watching, he almost laughed out of anger. They were so eager to watch the fun that they didn't even care about their lives. Didn't they know how powerful the sword energy was to protect its master?

Elder Lan Fei's vicious reputation was almost known throughout the world of immortal cultivation. The disciples of the three sects were all a little afraid of her. Hearing a hint of anger in her tone, they dared not stay for a moment and retreated quickly.

The scene was quickly cleared, revealing the mother and daughter trapped in the sword energy shield.

The little child was covered in blood and was held tightly in the woman's arms. The woman also looked like she was at the end of her strength, with blood gushing from her wounds, but she managed not to fall down and looked at everyone warily.

Lan Fei sighed lightly, quickly took out a blank talisman paper from the storage bracelet, and used his spiritual power to slowly carry it to the sword energy shield.

Hengyue has spirit, once the sword talisman is used, it will protect the master fiercely, alerting all living beings close to the master. This sword shield can only be unlocked by the master, and the only thing that can calm it is this blank talisman paper stained with the same aura as Hengyue.

This was one of the backup plans Fairy Hengyue left behind back then. Unexpectedly, she would use it today.

The restless sword energy gradually calmed down, and it was in a stalemate with the blank sword symbol for a long time, then it seemed to reluctantly remove the protective shield and slowly drilled into the sword symbol. Lan Fei and everyone else breathed a sigh of relief, but seeing that the wind blade shield that could protect them was gone, the woman who was hugging Zhou Ling instantly felt her heart rise to her throat!
She waved the small tree branch in her hand almost reflexively, and with the help of the endless green plants around her and the faint spiritual energy in the air, countless vines rose from the ground and quickly weaved into a large vine net, covering the mother and daughter, making it impenetrable.

God knows, this was really her last breath. After completing this barrier, her head tilted and she completely lost consciousness.

Zhou Ling, who was nestling in her arms, actually wanted to wake up. She noticed that something was wrong with her mother, but some kind of energy raging in her dantian seemed to be running wildly through her limbs and bones, causing her so much pain that she would rather die than live!

These energies were most likely the aftereffect of the healing pill. She did not regret taking that pill. She only hated herself for being so weak. If she could hold on a little longer, she could kill those evil cultivators, hold on a little longer, and take her mother away from here first, so she would not be surrounded by so many people!

Zhou Ling's body was in so much pain that she almost died, but her mind was unusually clear. While she was clearly aware of the immense pain, she was also aware of her current situation.

The people surrounding them were all from the Taoist sect, but they saw my mother casting a spell just now...

Zhou Ling suddenly became very afraid that these people would see that the magic her mother performed was not traditional Taoist magic, and would think that her mother was an alien and would do harm to her.

She tried hard to suppress the restlessness in her dantian, trying to straighten out the disobedient energies. She wanted to fight to the death, use the few thunder talismans left in her pocket to blast a hole, and escape from here with her mother.

But... before he could do anything, a ray of light poured into the densely woven vine ball, dispersing the darkness. A hole was opened above his head, and the vine ball was torn open from the outside.

"Don't be afraid."

A gentle female voice sounded above his head. Zhou Ling struggled to open his eyelids, and what came into his sight was a bright and cold face. There was a hint of worry between his brows. He didn't look like a bad person.

She was unable to move now and could only watch as the vine ball summoned by her mother was completely torn apart. She and her mother were lifted up by the spiritual power of the stunningly beautiful woman in the red dress and moved to the flat ground.

Several older men also came forward and surrounded her and her mother.

"Did this little girl eat a pill that could increase her spiritual power?" one of the old men asked uncertainly.

"Not like."

The stunning woman frowned and shook her head slightly, raising her hand to cover Zhou Ling's lower abdomen.

Her original intention was to use her own spiritual power to probe in and help the child stabilize his meridians first. However, as soon as the spiritual power slightly probed into her dantian, it was violently bounced back by the restless spiritual power in the child's body!
If she had not reacted in time and immediately retracted her spiritual power when it was rebounded, she would have been hit by the rebounding force.

This child looks like he hasn't practiced cultivation yet, so why is the spiritual power in his body so abnormal?
"how?"

The elder of Fengqi Sect who was closest to her noticed the abnormal changes in the spiritual power in her palm and asked anxiously.

But before Lan Fei could answer, the girl who was lying on the ground in pain suddenly sat up!
"Please, save me...my mother..." The girl's small body couldn't stop shaking, her face was pale, cold sweat oozed from her forehead, her lips trembled, and she spoke with difficulty. However, she was not asking for help for herself, but for someone to save her mother.

"Your mother is fine, don't worry. Look, her wounds have healed." Lan Fei hurriedly stroked her back to comfort her.

As early as when the woman was rescued, Fairy Zi Yan of Wan Dao Sect fed her the rejuvenation pill. Although the pill was of low grade, it could play the best role on this woman who had just practiced cultivation. Within a few breaths, the power of the medicine drew the spiritual power in her body to repair all the external injuries.

It's just that she used too much spiritual power, and the meridians in her dantian were exhausted, so she needs some time to wake up.

Only after seeing with her own eyes that her mother's injuries had greatly improved did Zhou Ling let out a sigh of relief. She lay back softly, letting the excruciating pain in her body swallow her up.

She was so conscious that she was dizzy from the pain and even thought that she might die here today.

But there was a faint chaotic sound in my ears.

"Hurry! This little girl is about to burst! Old Xu! Can you hurry up!"

"Shut up! Don't rush me!"

Everyone present was very anxious. The heir of the Hengyue Sword Technique! Although it was still unknown who the mother and daughter were, this little girl must not get into trouble at this critical moment. What if it was her? The entire cultivation world could not afford the gamble!
The spiritual power in her body was running wildly and strangely. Everyone checked one by one, but no one could use their own spiritual power to probe into her meridians to help her. Seeing that the little girl's arms and legs were stretched by the spiritual power and her life was about to be in danger, a cultivator who was proficient in formations came up with an idea and said to set up a formation to extract spiritual power next to the little girl to try.
