The little boy's body was too bright and clean, without the slightest speck of dust. It was beyond common sense!
"Tell big brother, have you ever eaten anything strange?" Jiang Xiaofan received Bing Xin's message.
The little boy shook his head. The village was not rich, and their lives were very ordinary. Their food and drink were also very ordinary. If they had eaten anything strange, there were many wild fruits in the back mountain, but almost everyone here had eaten them before.
Jiang Xiaofan shook his head at Bing Xin, but the latter revealed a cold smile. This made Jiang Xiaofan depressed. Damn it, I just accidentally looked at you. Is there a need to be like this? At worst, this handsome brother will let you look back.
"Let's go to his house!" Bing Xin said expressionlessly.
Jiang Xiaofan sighed. Sigh, people under the eaves had no choice but to lower their heads. Who asked this girl to be more powerful than him? He waved at Ye Yuanxue and said, "Little Xue 'er, let's go to Ziya's house. Your sister Bing Xin is hungry and wants to eat."
"I'll go cook!" The little boy ran away.
Jiang Xiaofan's mouth twitched. He was just mocking Bing Xin, but he didn't expect the little boy to actually take it seriously.
Ye Yuanxue comforted the villagers, saying that they would not leave until these people were cured. Only then did the anxious villagers disperse.
She walked over with a smile and looked at Jiang Xiaofan naughtily. She reached out and pulled his ear, but her action was quite gentle.
On the other side, Bing Xin coldly glared at Jiang Xiaofan, as if she wanted to eat him.
This made Jiang Xiaofan feel uncomfortable all over. Was this the legendary combination of ice and fire?
Elder Zhang's house was very shabby. He didn't rest. With the divine power left in his body by Ye Yuanxue, he temporarily recovered a lot. There was a small table in the middle of the house, and a few dishes were quickly placed on top of it. The old man repeatedly thanked them.
Jiang Xiaofan and Ye Yuanxue were very kind, but Bing Xin kept staring at him coldly, making Elder Zhang feel somewhat unnatural.
Jiang Xiaofan noticed this, but he didn't think much of it. In his imagination, Bing Xin should always be like this. Her body was cold, as if someone owed her tens of millions of yuan and didn't pay her back.
"When did you get infected with Devil Qi?" Bing Xin suddenly asked Old Man Zhang.
"Well, I'm not sure. It was about ten days ago." The old man was a little submissive.
Bing Xin smiled, but her expression turned even colder. "Are you sure you've been infected by the Demon Qi?"
Jiang Xiaofan was a little unhappy with Bing Xin's attitude. He said with dissatisfaction, "Didn't she say that she was infected by Demon Qi? Can you at least show some basic respect to an ordinary old person? At least don't keep a cold face, okay?"
The little boy sat quietly on the side. He was a polite child. When the adults were talking, he remained silent.
Ye Yuanxue's expression changed, but she didn't say anything. She just looked at Old Man Zhang strangely. Old Man Zhang opened his mouth again and said carefully, "I'm sure that he has been infected by the Devil Qi."
"See, she's already sure." Jiang Xiaofan said.
"Hmph, Devil Qi infection?" Bing Xin sneered and glanced at Jiang Xiaofan with disdain. "How would an ordinary old man know what Devil Qi is? What Devil Qi infection? Do you think I'm an idiot? "
Old Man Zhang's body trembled. His eyes suddenly became a little flustered, and he dodged her gaze.
"This …"
Jiang Xiaofan was cute. He finally thought of this problem. Why didn't an ordinary old man have the slightest expression of confusion when Bing Xin mentioned Devil Qi infection? Instead, he directly said that he had been infected by Devil Qi. This didn't make sense.
"I … I …" Old Man Zhang was a little uneasy.
Bing Xin stood up and looked at Old Man Zhang coldly. She said in a shocking tone, "Let me tell you. You are not contaminated with the so-called Devil Qi. You are a Devil Dao cultivator!"
Jiang Xiaofan nearly fell off his stool. He was well aware of what demonic path cultivators represented. On the North Star, a demonic path cultivator was the same as having a halo of death hanging over their head. They would attract the attention of all righteous path cultivators.
"Grandpa is not a devil!"
The little boy stood up fiercely and stood in front of Old Man Zhang. He stared at Bing Xin.
Although he was young and didn't know what a devil cultivator was, he knew that the word 'devil' didn't belong to the good kind. Even if Old Man Zhang was really a devil, he would still stand in front of him.
Bing Xin didn't say anything. Ye Yuanxue stood beside her and didn't say anything either. They just looked at Old Man Zhang. Jiang Xiaofan comforted the little boy in a low voice and said, "Sister Bing is just suspecting. She is not sure. It will be fine."
This child was very filial, which made him very happy. However, although he said this, he faintly felt that Bing Xin's words should be true. This woman wouldn't joke, let alone make such a joke.
The atmosphere in the small room suddenly became somewhat oppressive. After some time, the old man finally sighed. He seemed to have aged a lot in an instant. His expression was full of loneliness.
He gently stroked the little boy's head and then looked at Bing Xin. Although he was a little uneasy, his eyes were full of admiration. He said, "Miss, you have good eyesight. My devil cultivation has been destroyed, and my cultivation has been lost. I didn't think that even this could not be hidden from you. You are indeed the successor of the Ice Palace …"
"You flatter me!" Bing Xin's expression was still cold.
She knew from the first time she saw the old man. She was the future successor of the Ice Palace. Naturally, she cultivated the Ice Palace's supreme Xuan Methods. She was about to enter the Renhuang Plane, so naturally, she could understand many things.
"What do you want to do to Grandpa?"
The little boy stood in front of the old man, guarding him. He looked at the three of them warily.
The old man smiled lovingly and stroked the little boy's head. He gently said, "Ziya, be good. Grandpa will be fine. Go to the small room inside. I have some things to discuss with your brother and sister. Don't come out for the time being, okay?"
"But …" The little boy was obviously unwilling.
"Are you not going to listen to Grandpa?" The old man's voice became stern.
In the end, the little boy left and walked into the innermost room. In the end, he even turned back to look.
"Sit. I will tell you everything …" The old man sat down first.
When Jiang Xiaofan and the others also sat down, the old man began to tell them everything. Just as Bing Xin had said, he was indeed a devil cultivator. He belonged to the famous Heavenly Demon Sect of the Ziwei Star in the past. He was a trusted aide of the Heavenly Demon Sect.
Jiang Xiaofan was a little surprised. He didn't expect this old man to have such a great background. He had heard from Ye Yuanxue that the Heavenly Demon Sect of the past was a superpower that could contend with the four great sects.
The old man obviously didn't notice his surprised expression. He seemed a little lonely and continued to tell them. He told them that about thirty years ago, the Heavenly Demon Sect's Sect Master mysteriously disappeared. Because of this, there was internal strife in the Heavenly Demon Sect. After losing the Sect Master, some people began to fight for power.
For the Heavenly Demon Sect, this was a true dark upheaval. In order to obtain the position of Sect Master, the experts of the Heavenly Demon Sect participated in this, and almost all of them died in battle. The huge Heavenly Demon Sect was destroyed in a short month, and even the Primordial Demon Site was turned into ruins.
"The Heavenly Demon Sect actually disappeared like this!"
Bing Xin was a little surprised. She was young, but she knew a lot. After all, a large sect like the Ice Palace would have many ancient books. She naturally knew about the so-called Heavenly Demon Sect. It was the last devil sect on the Ziwei Star. It was also the only devil sect in the history of the Ziwei Star to be destroyed naturally.
In the past, no one knew how this super devil sect was destroyed. The truth was buried in the clouds of history. Who would have thought that after thirty years, they would actually know the truth of the past?
The old man nodded. Back then, he wasn't able to avoid the chaos of the devil sect. His foundation of the devil path was destroyed, and his cultivation was lost. However, he didn't die. He escaped with the Heavenly Demon Sword, the sacred relic of the Heavenly Demon Sect, and wandered into the barren mountains behind this small village.
When the Heavenly Demon Sect Master disappeared, the Heavenly Demon Sword sealed itself and became an ordinary iron sword.
At that time, Old Zhang no longer had any cultivation and couldn't use the Heavenly Demon Sword. Although he was a devil path cultivator, he had never killed a good person. After experiencing life and death, the old man had already seen through everything.
He didn't have any desire for fame or fortune. After the Heavenly Demon Sect disappeared, he only wanted to live the rest of his life. Thus, he buried the Heavenly Demon Sword in the back mountain and lived in seclusion in this small village.
But after thirty years, the Heavenly Demon Sword seemed to have undergone a strange change. Not long ago, a very faint devil qi filled the back mountain. This naturally couldn't be hidden from Old Zhang, who was once a devil path cultivator. He dug up the Heavenly Demon Sword again and discovered that the seal on the Heavenly Demon Sword was actually beginning to break!
Although this process was very slow and the devil qi emitted was very weak, to mortals, this weak devil qi was still very dangerous.
The people in the village often went up the mountain to gather firewood. During this process, they naturally couldn't avoid inhaling some of the devil qi that filled the air. Thus, their bodies began to weaken and their life force began to decline.
Old Zhang had lost his cultivation, but he had been in close contact with the Heavenly Demon Sword several times, so his injuries were the most serious. If he hadn't cultivated a devil path cultivation method in the past, he wouldn't have been able to get close to the Heavenly Demon Sword and would have died long ago.
"So that's how it is!"
Several people nodded. The roots of the devil path were in the back mountain.
Jiang Xiaofan was a little unhappy because Bing Xin and Ye Yuanxue had already given this answer long ago. He was the only one who hadn't guessed it. F * ck, was he really an idiot? F * ck your uncle!
"This old man knows that with my status, I don't deserve to speak, but I still hope that you can help me reseal the Heavenly Demon Sword and save the people of this village. This matter has nothing to do with them, it's all this old man's fault. All this sin will be borne by this old man alone!"
As the old man spoke, he was about to kneel. However, before he could kneel, Jiang Xiaofan quickly stopped him and said, "Old man, don't be like this, you can't …"
"You … why?"
The old man was a bit surprised. He was well aware of his own status. He was a devil path cultivator, and his status on Emperor Star was very low. He was a synonym for darkness and filth. He was like a rat crossing the street, the target of everyone's hatred.
He estimated that he was the last devil path cultivator on this ancient planet, and a crippled one at that. For such a devil's root, no righteous path cultivator didn't want to destroy it. But even after Jiang Xiaofan learned of his status, he still didn't look down on him.
Jiang Xiaofan calmly said, "You haven't done anything that offends the heavens. What you bear is just a different status from us. What is righteous? What is evil? There is no righteous path or demonic path, only good and evil people. "
The old man trembled. His old eyes became a bit turbid as they flashed with a bright light.
Bing Xin looked at Jiang Xiaofan, and her expression changed slightly. She knew all too well about the so-called good and evil in the North Star. If it were any other disciple of a righteous sect, after knowing the old man's true identity, they would definitely fight him with their swords and kill him as a meritorious service.
However, Jiang Xiaofan was different from the righteous path disciples she knew. He didn't have the hypocritical distinction between good and evil. There was no righteous path or demonic path, only good and evil people. Bing Xin thought to herself. This man had once again surprised her.
Ye Yuanxue's eyes curved into crescent moons. She grinned as she grabbed Bing Xin's arm and said, "Isn't that right, Big Sister Bing Xin? I already said that although this pervert is a bit perverted, he is a good person. He is very special and very kind."
