Mengli and Gao Lan said in unison, " Murong Xi, Murong Yao!"
Zhuang Yuerong nodded and said, "Indeed, they are the most likely candidates."
Noticing Ling Yi's probing gaze, Zhuang Yuerong explained, "Our Ten Thousand Swords Sect has seven peaks in total, named after the BeiDou Seven Stars."
"They are Tianshu Peak, Tianxuan Peak, Tianji Peak, Tianquan Peak, Yuheng Peak, Kaiyang Peak, and Alkaid Peak."
Ling Yi nodded; he knew that.
When they joined the sect, the servants and deacons told these things to the newcomers.
"Some Bored people made a list specifically for the female cultivators of the Seven Peaks, and we are all on the list except for Mengli."
Ling Yi looked at Mengli.
Mengli snorted, "What, am I an accident?"
Zhuang Yuerong smiled and said, "This ranking list isn't just based on looks, but also on cultivation level."
" Tianshu Peak is the sect leader's peak, the most beautiful, and the one with the highest cultivation level is naturally the sect leader."
That is, Mengli's biological mother, Meng Jiaoyue Ten Thousand Swords Sect.
"Is it really okay to make such a fuss about the sect leader?" Ling Yi asked, puzzled.
As a Nascent Soul Realm expert and the head of a sect, how could he possibly be lining up with his disciples for a beauty pageant? Isn't Meng Jiaoyue angry?
"Therefore, the people from Tianshu Peak are not on the list; it's just that everyone privately ranks the sect leader first."
Ling Yi looked at Mengli again.
To be honest, Mengli is very pretty and cute, except for being a little short.
"What are you looking at me for? Am I not pretty? I was just low in cultivation before, but I'll definitely be on the list when we get back this time," Mengli, hands on her hips, clearly dissatisfied.
"Are Murong Xi and Murong Yao very powerful?" Ling Yi didn't want to argue with Mengli about this, so he steered the conversation back on track.
"Judging from the name, could they be twins?"
Shen Qingyue nodded. "They are indeed twins, and both are very beautiful. I was amazed when I first saw them."
Gao Lan added, "Those are two monsters."
What do you mean by that?
Wasn't she supposed to be beautiful and stunning? How did she become a monster?
"They're monstrous," Gao Lan added.
"Most cultivators have the Five Elements Spiritual Root: Shui Huo, fire, and earth. But besides the Five Elements Spiritual Root, there are also some cultivators with Mutated Spiritual Root," Zhuang Yuerong said.
"Take Shen Qingyue, for example. Her Ice Spiritual Root is a Mutated Spiritual Root. Mutated Spiritual Root are generally very powerful, and their Combat is stronger than other Spiritual Root of the same level."
" Murong Xi and Murong Yao both possess Mutated Spiritual Root."
"What kind of Spiritual Root?" Ling Yi asked curiously.
"I don't know!" Zhuang Yuerong shook her head.
"Have no idea?"
"Yes, the sect's testing stone can only test the grade of their Spiritual Root. They are all top-grade Heavenly Spiritual Root, but it cannot test what kind of Spiritual Root they are."
"After the two women joined the sect, they rarely Combat anyone. In the few times Combat, they instantly Instant Kill their opponents. Gao Lan is the most qualified to speak on this matter."
Gao Lan shrugged and said, "I have no right to speak on this. I did fight Murong Xi, but I have no idea how I lost."
"Before I could even make a move, I fainted. When I woke up, I had already been taken back to my cave. I was unconscious for a whole day."
Zhuang Yuerong continued, "These twins are Instant Kill. Murong Xi can knock someone unconscious instantly, and Murong Yao is even more ruthless; anyone who has laid a hand on her is dead."
"So domineering?" Ling Yi frowned.
"It's not that she herself is domineering, but rather that her Spiritual Root is domineering and difficult for her to control. Once she makes a move, her enemies are instantly shattered."
"Actually, she has a very gentle personality."
"What kind of Spiritual Root is so terrifying?" Ling Yi became even more curious.
Yunshu, who had been silent until now, spoke up, " Murong Xi has a superior-grade Heaven Pin Soul Spiritual Root, Murong Yao has a superior-grade Heaven Pin Space Spiritual Root."
Everyone looked at Yunshu.
"How did you know?" Gao Lan asked.
"Even my mother couldn't determine their Spiritual Root," Mengli added.
"I saw it in an ancient book!" Yunshu said softly.
In fact, Yunshu's understanding of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect was even deeper than that of the sect leader Meng Jiaoyue.
As for Murong Xi and Murong Yao's Spiritual Root, it was actually Nangong Wuji told her about them.
Nangong Wuji had indeed seen a similar Spiritual Root in an ancient book.
"However, I'm not sure if that's the case," Yunshu added.
"It doesn't matter what kind of Spiritual Root they have, as long as they're powerful. If these twins join us, we won't be afraid even if we face the Demon King," Gao Lan said.
Yunshu shook her head. "They'll have a hard time leaving the sect."
"It's hard to leave the sect? Why?" Mengli asked, puzzled.
Ling Yi explained, "They are the sect's most precious treasures now, so of course they need to be hidden as deep as possible. We can't let them come out casually."
"If other sects find out, they'll either steal it or kill us."
The women nodded in agreement.
The three sects, two palaces, and twenty-eight gates appear harmonious now, but undercurrents are surging beneath the surface.
They've secretly sabotaged each other quite a bit.
It's just that they maintain a facade of harmony.
Yunshu then approached Ling Yi, first examining the Ling Yi demon mount beneath him before asking curiously, "Is this your Beast Taming?"
"Are you from the Beast Taming Palace?" Ling Yi asked in return.
For some reason, the first name that popped into Ling Yi's mind when he saw Yunshu Lin Daiyu.
A cultivator, a cultivator at the Foundation Establishment Fifth Layer, actually possesses a delicate and frail demeanor, which creates a strong sense of incongruity.
"I've been able to control these insect-like Xiaoyao since I was a child," Yunshu said. "Junior Brother Ling Yi, I need your help."
Ling Yi did not sense any malice or hostility from Yunshu.
Instead, I saw a burning, expectant look in the other person's eyes.
Ling Yi extended his hand. "Then let's complete the procedures first."
Yunshu was stunned for a moment, then grasped Ling Yi's hand at the system's prompt.
