Jiang Xiaofan was shocked. Although he had guessed that this person's origin was extraordinary, he did not expect it to be so shocking. He could actually make the Master of the Ice Palace fall in love with him and even have his child.
One had to know that the Ice Palace had its own rules. The master of this branch had to be a virgin and could not have any personal relationships. This person could actually move the Master of the Ice Palace at that time. He was simply too strong. He was definitely a man!
Bing Xin was silent for a moment before saying, "Sky Demon Sect Master!"
The Sky Demon Sect Master was definitely a famous figure. He had left behind endless glory on the Emperor Star. Almost everyone knew about him. Many years ago, he had single-handedly created the Sky Demon Sect. Even someone as strong as Ziweijiao could not contend against him.
"How could it be him!"
In the shabby thatched hut, Jiang Xiaofan's eyes widened. His face was filled with disbelief.
Zhang Heng's grandfather had once been an elder of the Sky Demon Sect. He had once told him that the Sky Demon Sect Master had mysteriously disappeared several decades ago, leading to the destruction of the Sky Demon Sect due to an internal struggle for power. He really did not expect that the man these cultivators were talking about was actually the Sky Demon Sect Master.
Bing Xin nodded. She was not very clear about the Sky Demon Sect Master. After all, several decades had passed, and many truths had been sealed in the dust of history. The reason why she appeared here and knew about the Sky Demon Sect Master and the previous Master of the Ice Palace was all because of her master, the Grand Elder of the Ice Palace.
"The previous Master of the Ice Palace, she … could be considered my Senior Sister …"
Bing Xin's expression was very calm.
Not long ago, someone had found traces of the Heavenly Demonic Sect Lord's whereabouts after he went missing. It caused quite a stir in the Zi Wei. Many people participated in the search, wanting to get their hands on something that he carried with him all those years ago. It was rumored that the item was the Heavenly Demonic Sect Lord's most precious treasure.
"It does not belong to the Sky Demon Sect Master. It originally belonged to the previous Master of the Ice Palace. It was passed down by my master!"
Bing Xin did not say anything about the Sky Demon Sect Master, nor did she say anything about the previous Master of the Ice Palace. Her purpose in coming here was very simple. She wanted to find that thing and bring it back to her master. She wanted that old woman to be happy.
These days, the Great Elder of the Ice Palace would often be in a daze for long periods of time.
Zi Wei was an item that some cultivators wanted to obtain. She had passed it down to the previous Ice Palace Master, and due to certain reasons, that item had ended up in the hands of the Sky Demon Sect Master. The previous Master of the Ice Palace had passed away a long time ago. Now that she suddenly heard news about that thing, she couldn't help but feel a little sad.
Under Bing Xin's repeated questioning, the old man finally revealed the truth, telling Bing Xin some of the past events. On the second day, Bing Xin silently left the Ice Palace and came here. Since she already knew that the thing was related to her master, she hoped to bring it back.
"So it's like that …"
Jiang Xiaofan nodded. He hadn't expected that there would be so many secrets behind this.
Little Rain Village was a bit noisy. Many practitioners had already surrounded this place, and they were all inquiring about the Demonic Sect Master. After an unknown amount of time, the oldest elder opened his mouth and said that there was a family at the foot of the mountain in the distance. The owner seemed to be surnamed Leng.
"Come, let's go!"
There were many people surrounding this place. When they heard this, their eyes immediately lit up. They didn't stay in this small village any longer, and all of them rushed towards the foot of the mountain in the distance. They had the same surname Leng as the Demonic Sect Master, and lived alone in the distance. There was definitely something fishy about this, and it matched the traces they knew very well.
These villagers usually didn't have much contact with the family at the foot of the mountain, but at this moment, they were all a little surprised. Human nature was always curious. Very quickly, some people followed them and walked forward with these practitioners. They wanted to see what was going on.
"Let's go, we'll go as well."
Bing Xin spoke in a shabby thatched hut. Although they weren't in the small village, their divine senses were powerful enough. Every movement outside couldn't escape their senses. They left this place and also headed towards the foot of the mountain not far away.
Little Rain Village was very peaceful. At the foot of the mountain not far away, there was indeed a family living here. The house was very shabby, and it looked as if it would collapse at any moment. At this moment, a man was standing in front of the house. Although he was middle-aged, there were many wrinkles on his face. It was obvious that his life wasn't going well.
"I know why you all came here. However, there isn't what you want here. There is only a handwritten record …"
The middle-aged man was very calm. Behind him stood a five or six year old little girl. Her face was bright red. She was dressed very plainly. When she saw so many unfamiliar faces, she was slightly scared. She hid behind the middle-aged man, and only revealed her little head.
It was very obvious that the middle-aged man already knew what happened in the small village, and knew why these people came here. He took out an item from the house. It was a withered book that was already yellow. He handed it over to everyone. There were many things recorded on it.
"That's right, it's that person from back then. This handwriting is very similar!"
A practitioner spoke. He was fortunate enough to see some of the Demonic Sect Master's words. He recognized the handwriting on it. It was very similar to the handwriting he saw back then. It was almost exactly the same. It was most likely written by the same person.
Many people gathered around to take a look. A lot of things were written on this handwritten record, but almost all of them were memories, and the memories of a woman. He didn't specify the origin of the woman, and he didn't even mention her name. However, people could feel that those words were filled with deep affection.
However, these were obviously not what everyone was interested in. What they really cared about was the last sentence. On the Divine Cliff, I met an expert. Under the cool breeze at the bottom of the lake, I suppressed the demonic nature for ten thousand years. I hoped to return to normal and meet again.
"This … the dignified Demonic Sect Master almost turned into a demon back then?"
"There was a problem with the demonic arts. In the end, it was not the demonic arts that controlled humans, but the demonic arts that controlled humans!"
Many practitioners were astonished. They more or less understood the meaning recorded on the withered book.
When the Demonic Sect Master was in his later years, the demonic arts reversed. He would often lose his nature, lose himself, and turn into a ruthless demon. The seven emotions and six desires of the mortal world were obliterated. Only killing intent was left in his heart. In the end, he couldn't suppress it anymore.
But fortunately, when he was about to completely turn into a demon, an expert appeared and helped him suppress the demonic nature. In the end, he was taken away. He willingly got suppressed in a certain place, hoping that he could eliminate the demonic nature in his body one day and reappear in the world. He wanted to reunite with his loved ones and reunite with his family.
And this withered book also clearly recorded that the thing he treasured had the effect of suppressing the demonic nature, so it was taken away together with the demonic nature. At the same time, it seemed like he didn't want his descendants to practice his secret arts, so he didn't leave anything behind. After settling everything down, he left alone with that expert to suppress his own body.
"How many years has it been? Even if he was that powerful, he should be dead by now!"
"That's right, he should have already passed away. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to not appear for so many years."
Many practitioners spoke one after another. Someone immediately left and headed towards the place recorded in the withered book.
"Huh? Mysterious Ice Jade!"
Suddenly, a practitioner cried out in surprise. He stared at the little girl behind the middle-aged man. There was an extremely transparent jade hanging around her neck. It occasionally emitted an extremely pure white luster. It looked incomparably pure under the sunlight.
"It really is the Mysterious Ice Jade! This, this kind of thing actually exists!"
Many people cried out in surprise again. Even Murong Ling was astonished. It was obvious that the green jade hanging around the little girl's neck was not an ordinary item. This kind of thing, when worn by mortals, would help prolong their life. And for practitioners, it had even more miraculous effects. It could allow practitioners to maintain their ethereal state to the greatest extent, and help them comprehend the Dao.
"Swish … …"
Very quickly, someone reached out his hand. This was a powerful existence at the Ninth Celestial Layer of Enlightenment. With a flash of divine splendor, he directly snatched the green jade hanging around the little girl's neck. The middle-aged man came over to demand it, but he was pushed away by a slap. Even though he was the descendant of the Demonic Sect's master, he didn't train and was only an ordinary person.
"Father, are you alright?" The five or six year old little girl was very anxious. Tears immediately rolled down one after another. She looked at the man who snatched the green jade and said with a sobbing tone, "That was left for me by my mother. Uncle, don't snatch it. Give it back to me, okay?"
"Isn't it just a piece of jade? Take these gold coins, it's enough for you guys to live a wealthy life for the rest of your life!"
This person threw out a bag.
The middle-aged man's expression was somewhat unsightly. He naturally knew what kind of existence these people were, but he didn't back down and said, "We don't need this money. This is the only thing left behind by the child's mother. You guys are all practitioners, you can't be so excessive. Please return it."
"Less nonsense, you're just a mortal. If you don't want to die, then shut up!"
This man's expression was very cold.
A lot of people came from Rain Village. Seeing this scene, they all shook their heads. These people were all powerful practitioners, and were high and mighty existences. And this middle-aged man was only an ordinary mortal. What could he do?
Suddenly, a cold air pervaded the air. Bing Xin walked out from the side and stared at the man holding the jade pendant. She didn't care what happened to the Demonic Sect's master, but this father and daughter could be considered as the descendants of the previous Ice Palace's master. Naturally, she couldn't let them be bullied like this.
Her body carried a cold air, and her expression was very cold. She wanted to make a move.
"Let me do it." Jiang Xiaofan stopped her. In any case, he was also a man. Since he had already come here with her, how could he let Bing Xin make a move? He took a step forward, looked at the man holding the green jade, and said calmly, "Leave the thing, and scram."
Almost all the villagers of Rain Village came here. Many of them still recognized Jiang Xiaofan. At this moment, seeing him walk out and hearing him say these words with their own ears, each and every one of them opened their mouths wide in shock.
"Heavens, what's wrong with this little sloppy guy?"
"He dares to stand out and talk to an immortal like that. He's really tired of living!"
"He's dead, this little beggar is dead for sure!"
Many people in the village shook their heads, and their expressions were full of ridicule. In their opinion, Jiang Xiaofan dared to talk to an immortal like that. He was definitely going to die. No one could save him. He was dead for sure!
