Chapter 256: Spiritual Power Leakage
Although he had been denying in his heart that this person was his junior uncle, Reg's eyes couldn't help but reveal a hint of doubt and worry.
"You must not take the risk of searching in the Land of Exile. I will do my best to help you find clues elsewhere. Don't worry, I hate such heartless and ungrateful people the most just like you do," Reg said seriously.
After he finished speaking, Reg casually reached out his hand, gently picked up a strand of Lin Xian'er's silky hair, and said softly, "I'm leaving first. Don't be sad anymore."
[Host, stop pretending. The person has already walked far away and can no longer be seen.]
[Damn it, she finally left. If she hadn't left, I wouldn't know how to act next. But... hehe, the fact that she can perform to such a high level is a real talent, right?] Thinking about this, Lin Xian'er couldn't help but feel proud.
[Host, you are truly worthy of an Oscar. Your acting skills are simply amazing. So awesome.]
Lin Xian'er smiled at the system's praise. But she quickly regained her pitiful demeanor and sighed coquettishly, "Phew, I'm so tired."
Then, she slowly raised her pretty face, which seemed to be covered with tear marks but actually had no tears at all, and shouted to Xie Qijun beside her: "Disciple, please help me grill some more chicken wings and chicken feet. Remember, I want more chicken feet."
Xie Qijun was already accustomed to Lin Xian'er's occasional outbursts. In fact, as early as when Lin Xian'er just started her performance, he had already guessed what his master was going to do next.
So, he kept his back to Reg and pretended to comfort Lin Xian'er. Fortunately, everything went smoothly, and he successfully cooperated with his master to complete this wonderful performance without revealing any flaws.
Seeing Lin Xian'er's request, Xie Qijun stood up without hesitation and walked towards the barbecue grill. He thought to himself, "Master must not have eaten enough just now. I need to prepare more different kinds of ingredients."
So, in addition to chicken wings and chicken feet, he also selected some other delicious foods and put them on the baking tray.
The dog, standing nearby and witnessing the entire incident, was completely stunned. It was the first time it had ever seen such a scene, and it was completely stunned, with one thought constantly echoing in its mind: "Oh my God, how could this owner do this? This feels so bad. Even though this time it wasn't me, why do I always feel a chill down my spine?"
After leaving the mountain, Reg took out Lin Xian'er's hair with a serious expression, muttered something, and quickly formed seals with his hands. Mysterious runes flashed with faint light and began to rotate around the hair.
Suddenly, a flame shot out from his fingertips and instantly ignited the hair.
The flames spread rapidly, completely devouring the entire strand of hair. In the blink of an eye, black smoke from the burning rose up, as if it had life, swirling in the air for a moment before drifting away in a certain direction on the breeze.
Reg didn't dare delay. He flashed and followed closely behind the smoke. Soon, he arrived at a desolate place—the edge of the Exiled Lands. Gazing at this barren and menacing land, Reg's expression grew increasingly gloomy.
Could it really be Junior Master? No, it wasn't necessarily Junior Master, after all, there were still many people inside. But no matter what, this meant that Lin Xian'er and the others would enter the Land of Exile.
Thinking of this, Reg's heart tightened. If she truly was Junior Master's only surviving bloodline, then things would be far more complicated and difficult than he'd imagined. And more importantly, if the ancestor discovered Lin Xian'er's existence...
Recalling the huge impact of that incident and the serious consequences it could have caused, Reg knew he couldn't let it happen again. But no matter what, he couldn't let Lin Xian'er suffer the slightest harm.
With a heavy heart, Reg slowly turned around and walked towards the mountain where he was. Along the way, he kept thinking about the response in his mind, and before he knew it, he had returned to his residence.
As he reached the peak, Reg immediately spotted Lin Xian'er, lying on a recliner, fully recovered and resting peacefully. Her face was serene, like a blooming flower, radiating a captivating charm.
Looking at the increasingly familiar face, Reg's tense nerves gradually relaxed, and a kind smile unconsciously appeared on his face. He secretly vowed to protect this girl and not let anyone hurt her in the slightest.
However, as his gaze shifted to Xie Qijun, Reg's brow furrowed slightly. While his disciple, Lin Xian'er, was diligent and hardworking, she was far too weak. In such a perilous environment, his current abilities alone were insufficient to protect Lin Xian'er.
So, Reg shouted at Xie Qijun, "You, come here and continue practicing with me. Look at how weak you are now. How can you protect others in the future?"
Hearing the Fourth Elder's voice, Xie Qijun's spirits suddenly lifted. He also hoped to receive more guidance and training from Reg, and now the opportunity had finally arrived.
Without saying a word, Xie Qijun immediately drew the sword from his waist and rushed towards Reg like an arrow, determined to improve his strength through hard training and no longer be a burden to his master.
In the next two days, Lin Xian'er and Xie Qijun practiced calmly and did not take any other actions.
However, during these seemingly peaceful days, a major event occurred within the Tianzong. He Fenglan suddenly began to lose his spiritual power for no apparent reason. It was as if his life force had been drained from him, and he instantly became incredibly old. In just two days, he was reduced to an ordinary mortal, devoid of spiritual power.
Faced with such a bizarre situation, the entire Tianzong clan was in an uproar. The Great Elder acted decisively and quickly assembled all of the Tianzong's renowned pharmacists and alchemists, hoping to uncover the root cause of He Fenglan's misfortune and devise a cure.
Each of these pharmacists and alchemists possessed unique skills. Some specialized in refining various rare elixirs, while others possessed in-depth research on the world's most bizarre poisons. However, even with their combined efforts and after a thorough diagnosis and investigation, they still failed to uncover any clues. In desperation, the Great Elder had no choice but to send someone to urgently notify the He family.
Upon receiving the news, He Yunfeng, the head of the He family, was extremely anxious. He led his trusted followers to the Tianzong as quickly as possible. When he finally saw his beloved daughter, whose life was hanging by a thread, he felt as if his heart was pierced by thousands of arrows and was in unbearable pain.
