"A new soul?"
Wang Ba froze, then looked at Ji Lan.
Ji Lan's eyes were likewise full of astonishment and uncertainty.
A thought stirred, and he hurried over.
Through the crystal ice coffin, he could clearly see the girl still lying quietly, as though asleep.
But he could also clearly sense that her breathing had ceased. Though vitality remained in her flesh, it was empty within, giving a sense of withering.
Wang Ba could not help looking at Li Yingfu.
"Protector Li, are you certain?"
Li Yingfu offered no explanation, saying gravely:
"Right Protector, would it be convenient to open this coffin?"
Wang Ba glanced at Ji Lan again, then said solemnly:
"Open it!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Li Yingfu immediately tapped the crystal coffin lightly.
The Crystal Coffin lid flew up at once.
Wang Ba could not help taking two steps forward. His Divine Sense swept over the girl in the coffin, but he detected none of the "new soul" Li Yingfu had mentioned.
Though puzzled, he did not doubt Li Yingfu's judgment.
As a Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivator, Li Yingfu possessed a keenness of perception that he could not possibly match.
Ji Lan swept his Divine Sense over her at the same time, and the puzzlement in his eyes only deepened.
Li Yingfu remained unhurried, raising his hand to form hand seals.
He murmured an incantation.
Then he suddenly took a water bowl from his Storage Law Artifact and lightly pointed at it.
A stream of water immediately flew out of the bowl, flowing straight into the purple-robed girl's mouth.
After several breaths of silence.
A watery light abruptly appeared at the Spiritual Platform between the purple-robed girl's brows.
Within that light, they could indeed see a hazy, unformed, fledgling phantom.
At this sight, Ji Lan shuddered!
