At this time, the steward of the Luo Mansion also noticed Luo Rufeng and his group. A hint of joy appeared on his originally sad face. He led everyone straight to the main room in the inner courtyard and briefly recounted what had happened in the mansion.

Luo Qi and others then realized that the head of the Luo family and Luo Qi's father Luo Chengfeng were seriously injured and in a coma. They were in such a hurry just now because they were anxious to invite Elder Chen from the City Lord's Mansion to come to the mansion for treatment. Elder Chen was a guest elder of the City Lord's Mansion and also a fifth-grade alchemist.

"Grandmother! Mother!" As Luo Qi entered the room, he saw Huang Lanshi and Du Yuan with worried faces. Not only them, but all the masters of the Luo family, including Luo Rufeng's second brother, Luo Lingfeng and his wife, had gathered in the hall.

"Qi'er!" Du Yuan didn't expect that her son would come back.

"Rufeng! You're back!"

"Third brother!"

Huang Lanshi and Luo Lingfeng were surprised to see Luo Rufeng appear in front of them safe and sound, and they stepped forward to hold Luo Rufeng's arm.

Luo Rufeng felt a little uncomfortable, broke free from the two people's pulling, and asked in a deep voice: "What happened at home?"

Huang Lanshi was feeling anxious and depressed at the moment, and she was exhausted. She did not notice Luo Rufeng's abnormality. After hearing his question, she almost cried. She choked and said:

"Something happened at our mine! As you know, our family has a spiritual stone mine near Shilan Mountain. A few days ago, your father and your eldest brother went to the mine for inspection. Somehow, they were suddenly carried back by the mine manager and miners. Now they are seriously injured and unconscious..."

"Did someone attack them?" Pei Yun came to Luo Rufeng and asked with a frown.

"No!" Luo Lingfeng said solemnly, "Not only my father and elder brother, but also some miners in the mine were suddenly seriously injured and fell into a coma. They all have one thing in common, that is, their whole body seems to be corroded by some poisonous gas, and their skin and flesh are festering..."

"Then grandfather and my father..." Luo Qi exclaimed.

Luo Lingfeng nodded with a heavy face, his brows full of anxiety: "Father and eldest brother's cultivation is not low, so it is not too serious for the time being, just the skin and flesh show signs of festering, but those miners who were rescued, the ones with low cultivation were corroded in one or two days... turned into a pool of blood..."

"Father! Grandfather!" Luo Qi no longer cared about anything else and wanted to run into the inner room to check on the two of them, but was stopped by Du Yuan.

"Elder Chen is checking the physical condition of your father and grandfather, don't disturb him yet!"

After listening to the description of the Luo family, Pei Yun pondered for a moment and asked, "Did Uncle Luo and the miners who were poisoned encounter some poisonous grass, poisonous flowers, or poisonous stones? Why were they the only ones poisoned? The stewards and miners who carried them back were safe and sound?"

"According to the manager's account, my father, my elder brother, and the unconscious miners were poisoned after entering a mine that was being dug. After they escaped, they fell unconscious to the ground. The manager saw that things were not going well and did not dare to enter the mine again. He directly carried the people back..."

At this moment, the sword spirit who had been standing silently in the corner suddenly straightened his back, his eyes instantly sharpened, and stared directly into the inner room: "It's demonic energy! I sensed a demonic energy, it's in there!"

Hearing this, everyone was shocked and turned to look at him.

"Senior Jian Ling, you said that Uncle Luo and the others' bodies were corroded by evil spirits?" Pei Yun asked in amazement.

Logically speaking, they were so close to the injured person, if it was really demonic energy, they should be able to sense it. Moreover, they had fought against demons before, even the Night Demon Lord, but they had never experienced demonic energy corroding their bodies.

Before the sword spirit could speak, Elder Chen came out from the inner room. Seeing everyone's expectant eyes, he sighed and shook his head:

“I am powerless. The poison in Patriarch Luo is indeed very similar to the evil spirit, but the poison in his body has invaded his soul and taken root there. No matter how much elixir he takes or how much spiritual energy he uses, he cannot uproot it…”

Upon hearing the sad news, Huang Lanshi could not even stand steadily. She felt as if all her energy had been drained away. She collapsed on Luo Rufeng, looking like she had lost her soul. Luo Qi also hurriedly supported his crying mother.

Luo Lingfeng calmed himself down, forced a smile and asked the steward to see Elder Chen off, then everyone went to the inner room together.

Pei Yun then saw the situation of the head of the Luo family and Luo Chengfeng. Both of them were covered in black air, and the exposed skin was already festering bit by bit. The situation looked very bad.

The sword spirit walked up to the two of them, raised one hand, and injected two streams of spiritual power into their bodies...

After a moment, he took his hand back, frowned and said seriously: "It is demonic energy, and it is... very 'pure' demonic energy!"

"'Pure' demonic energy?" Zhenhua didn't understand what he meant.

"The demons are not native to the Haoyu Continent. The creatures on the Haoyu Continent cultivate by absorbing the spiritual energy between heaven and earth. Therefore, the most abundant thing in this world is spiritual energy. When the demons come to this world, they can only absorb and mobilize a small amount of demonic energy. Therefore, the magic power displayed by those demons, including the Night Demon Lord, cannot be considered "pure". But now the demonic energy that has been corroded in the body of the Luo family leader is very "pure", without any impurities such as spiritual energy or turbid air..."

"Then is there any way to remove the evil spirit from their bodies?" Luo Rufeng asked the key question directly.

"I am a sword spirit. I can only kill demons, but I cannot eliminate the demonic energy."

The sword spirit shook his head. Just when everyone thought that hope was dashed again, he turned to Pei Yun and said, "But... Pei Yun, maybe you can give it a try. You have practiced the Life-Resisting Technique, and your mind-controlling technique has also been practiced to the great perfection realm. There should be hope that you can remove the evil spirits in their bodies..."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked at Pei Yun with hope in their eyes. Huang Lanshi even held her hand with a pleading look on her face.

"Don't worry, Auntie. I will do my best to help Uncle Luo and the others..."

Pei Yun naturally would not refuse. Not to mention that this was Luo Rufeng's family, even if it was an ordinary stranger, she would try her best to save him.

Pei Yun walked forward, put his two fingers together and tapped on the forehead of the Luo family master, closed his eyes and performed the Breathing and Life Skill...

The spiritual sense explored all the way and found that the body of the head of the Luo family was being infiltrated by demonic energy bit by bit, and the speed was getting faster and faster. If it was not stopped, his internal organs would soon collapse. The source of these demonic energy was a black spot the size of a grain of rice in his soul. This black spot was rooted in his soul and did not move.

She knew that in order to remove the evil energy from the Luo family, she had to eliminate the source first.

While Pei Yun was using the Xisheng Jue to purify the evil energy in his body so that his condition would not deteriorate any further, he was also using the mind controlling technique, with his divine consciousness transforming into an invisible hand to control the soul of the head of the Luo family.

The master of the Luo family was in the middle stage of the Spiritualization Realm, but his soul strength was about the same as Pei Yun's. Moreover, his soul was now occupied by the evil spirit. Pei Yun controlled his mind without much effort and activated the purification technique in the Life-Breaking Technique to purify the black spot bit by bit...

There was complete silence all around, and no one dared to make a sound to disturb Pei Yun. After all, Pei Yun was their only hope now!

Three hours, six hours... After more than a day, Pei Yun finally opened her eyes, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and breathed a sigh of relief, "The evil energy in Uncle Luo's body has been basically cleared, he just needs to rest well..." As she spoke, she fed the head of the Luo family a Heart-Clearing Pill.

In fact, she didn't need to say anything. Everyone could see that the head of the Luo family was getting better little by little. The black air that originally enveloped his body was slowly dissipating, his skin and flesh stopped festering, and his frown gradually relaxed...

Huang Lanshi excitedly pulled her to thank her repeatedly. Luo Qi squeezed next to her and said anxiously: "Junior Sister Pei, look at my father, his condition is getting worse..."

Pei Yun nodded, took a bottle of spiritual liquid, and without caring about his mental fatigue, he immediately helped Luo Chengfeng to heal...

Luo Chengfeng was in the late stage of the Nascent Soul. The black spots had taken root on his Nascent Soul, and his body was more seriously eroded by the demonic energy. It took Pei Yun more than two days to remove the demonic energy from his body...

"Where are the others? I need to treat them as soon as possible..."

Pei Yun stood up. Her spiritual power and divine consciousness were already overdrawn, and she staggered.

Luo Rufeng, who was standing by, held her arm and looked at Pei Yun, whose face was a little pale. For some reason, a trace of inexplicable heartache swept through his heart.

"Yun'er, you should take a rest first." Huang Lanshi had regained her composure by now. Her husband and son were visibly getting better, and her anxiety had largely dissipated.

Everyone in the Luo family also advised her to take a rest. At this moment, their whole family's favor towards Pei Yun had reached its peak.

Who would have thought that the situation, which had originally fallen into despair, could now be turned around. This could be said to be the result of Pei Yun's single-handed efforts to turn the tide!

Pei Yun rejected their kindness, took the elixir and spirit fluid, and immediately went to treat the other miners who were corroded by the evil spirit. This was not because she wanted to show off, but because the longer she delayed, the more dangerous those people would be...

It took her more than half a month to treat more than twenty miners. Later, in order to speed up the process, she treated two or even three miners at a time. However, nearly half of them still died because they were not treated in time.

At the same time, her Breathing Life Skill was improving rapidly, and she was about to break through to the Great Perfection stage. The golden spiritual core in her mind was also growing stronger. The spiritual core represented the soul, which meant that her soul was changing silently...
