By the time Yun Sheng returned home, the pheasants in the mountains had already crowed two or three times. She carried the remaining hemostatic agent in her hand as she thought about Ye Beiming and Great Magus Yang's words.
Magic soul … vision …
Actually, when Ye Beiming's high fever hadn't subsided, she had also secretly checked Ye Beiming's eyes while giving him a cold compress.
Yun Sheng used a dilated pupil examination that didn't require too much medical equipment.
She used a small amount of saline water and dripped it into Ye Beiming's eyes. She found that his cornea had been completely necrotic. Looking at the situation, it should have been necrotic for many years.
His eyesight was also completely damaged.
In this kind of situation, unless he could perform a modern cornea transplant and find a transplantable pair of corneas, it was impossible for his eyes to recover.
Although she didn't know what a magic soul was, there was one thing that Yun Sheng was certain of. Great Magus Yang had deceived Ye Beiming.
Magic, could it be that it was so miraculous that it could regenerate the dead flesh and restore the necrotic nerves?!
Impossible! At least, it was impossible with Great Magus Yang's cultivation.
Yun Sheng was thinking about this and only returned to her senses when she reached the door of her house.
Earlier, when she found out that Ye Beiming was injured, she sent Xiao Hei home first and hid in her bed, pretending that she had already returned home.
The rooster crowed three times before the sky turned white. According to common sense, at this time, her father, Yun Canghai, should still be hungover and unconscious.
Therefore, Yun Sheng didn't climb through the window, but directly slipped in through the front door.
Just as she stepped into her room, she suddenly heard a pop and the kerosene lamp in the room lit up.
Yun Canghai waited by the window, his gaze cold.
Yun Sheng had never seen Yun Canghai like this in her life.
On the bed, Xiao Hei curled up on the floor and barked at Yun Sheng pitifully.
Yun Canghai shot them a look, and Yun Sheng and Xiao Hei both shuddered.
"Father." Yun Sheng cleared her throat and quickly came up with a believable excuse in her mind. "Sheng 'er knows that she was wrong. I shouldn't have stayed out all night in the temple to make hemostatic medicine."
After saying that, she handed over the hemostatic agent in her hand.
"Why are there bloodstains on your body?" Yun Canghai ignored Yun Sheng's medicine. His sharp eyes saw a small bloodstain on Yun Sheng's lapel.
It was left behind by Yun Sheng when she was cleaning Ye Beiming's wounds.
She was so distracted that she didn't notice the bloodstains on her body.
"That's …" A daughter knew her father best. Yun Sheng's mind was filled with countless excuses, but they were all overturned by her in an instant.
She knew that Yun Canghai was not someone who could be easily fooled.
"Someone in the temple was injured, and I helped him treat his wounds." Yun Sheng gave a rough account of what happened, including the conversation between Ye Beiming and the Great Magician Yang.
She thought that Yun Canghai would be dismissive of her words. After all, who would easily believe that the highly respected Great Magician of the Temple was a bad sorcerer who studied forbidden magic?
On the Boundless Continent, even children knew that magic consisted of the four major elements — wind, water, earth, and fire. There were also some secondary magic from the side branches. However, there was one type of magic that, although it was also a secondary magic, had always been the most unorthodox existence in all of magic.
Regardless of whether it was the Temple or ordinary sorcerers, they all kept it a secret. That was forbidden magic.
Forbidden magic was also known as dark magic. It was a type of magic that opposed light magic. Sorcerers who studied dark magic were known as dark sorcerers.
The most notorious forbidden magic in the history of the continent was known as the Wrath of a Hundred Ghosts. Legend had it that it was invented by a dark sorcerer called Lin more than a thousand years ago.
It caused the most powerful empire on the continent, the Jura Empire, to be reduced to a pile of bones in a single night.
Because of that magic, Lin himself was hunted down by the various countries on the continent, including the Temple, the Zao state, and the Hunter's Guild.
In the end, a few great sorcerers from the Temple worked together and used fire magic to burn him alive with the Holy Flames of All Sounds.
After Lin's death, the Temple issued an edict that anyone who studied forbidden magic was to be killed without mercy.
Forbidden magic became a taboo for sorcerers on the continent.
However, there were still many sorcerers who secretly studied dark magic in order to pursue powerful magic. Among them, there was no lack of sorcerers working in the Temple.
A large part of the reason why Great Sorcerer Yang was willing to guard the Jiaoye Temple was because he wanted to make use of this remote mountain village's Temple to carry out a shameful soul transplant.
After Yun Sheng finished speaking, she looked at her father nervously, afraid that he would reprimand her.
Yun Canghai was silent for a long time. "From today onwards, you don't have to go to the Temple anymore."
"Father?! You believe me! "Even Yun Sheng couldn't understand what Great Sorcerer Yang was trying to do. Yun Canghai actually understood?
"You are my daughter. I have no reason to not believe your words." The sky gradually brightened. In the first rays of dawn, seeing his daughter's careful and tired little face, Yun Canghai firmly said these words.
His words were short but powerful.
This was a typical reply from the Yun family.
Yun Sheng realized that her father was a little different today.
He had changed into clean clothes, and the stubble on his face had been shaved off. He looked clean and fresh, as if he had suddenly become a few years younger.
She could vaguely see Yun Canghai's youthful appearance.
"Sheng 'er, do you really want to learn magic?" Yun Canghai suddenly changed the topic. His eyes were burning as he looked at his astonished daughter.
"Yes … I don't." Yun Sheng nodded and shook her head. She didn't forget the promise she made to her father, but she didn't want to lie to him. "I want to, but I can't gather magical elements."
"That's because you lack a Dharma Soul compared to others." These days, Yun Canghai had seen all of Yun Sheng's little tricks.
She had gone to the mountains to pick moonlight grass and make moonlight herbs in order to become a sorcerer's apprentice.
"Dharma Soul?" This was the second time Yun Sheng had heard this completely unfamiliar term today.
Great Sorcerer Yang had mentioned Dharma Souls. He wanted to exchange Dharma Souls with Ye Beiming. Her father, Yun Canghai, had also mentioned Dharma Souls. However, the village chief and the sorcerers in the Temple had never mentioned this unfamiliar term to the children in the village.
"That's right, Dharma Soul, also known as the Soul of Magic." Yun Canghai spread out his hands.
It was a pair of typical sorcerer's hands, slender and nimble.
It was also a father's hand, strong and steady.
Yun Canghai had a magic testing crystal in his hand.
