ah?
What?
Everyone staring at this scene felt their minds go blank, completely stunned.
They could hardly believe what they were hearing!
The angry words Chang Ling'er had prepared were all stuck in her throat, and she couldn't say them no matter what.
Like everyone else, she watched this scene with a sense of bewilderment, but then a flash of insight made her suddenly understand.
Speaking of which...
Why would the Sword Fairy, contrary to her usual practice, choose to join a faction?
She has always hated these kinds of things the most.
Even when the top alliances of the Supreme Institute tried to invite Duan Nianwei to join, she rejected them without hesitation.
But now, she has actually chosen the Moon Eve Alliance, which is on the verge of disbanding...
A bold guess suddenly popped into Chang Ling'er's mind.
Could it be that Duan Nianwei chose to join their Moon Eve Alliance because of her junior brother?
Before Chang Ling'er could figure it out, Lin Xuan had already nodded slightly to Duan Nianwei.
"Yes, please come with me."
Duan Nianwei let out a soft breath and hurriedly followed.
The others watching them leave were all at a loss for words, unable to process what they were seeing for a long time.
Within the alliance's headquarters, each alliance member has their own Seclusion Chamber.
Lin Xuan walked in, with Duan Nianwei closely following behind him.
Upon entering the room, Duan Nianwei unhesitatingly took the sword in her hands and bowed to Lin Xuan.
Duan Nianwei greets Master!
Lin Xuan nodded slightly.
He looked at Duan Nianwei, a hint of satisfaction appearing in his eyes.
He was indeed quite satisfied with this disciple.
The system also displayed the other party's panel.
[Name: Duan Nianwei ]
[Age: 17]
[Realm: Emperor Realm Sixth Layer ]
[Destiny: Glazed Sword Physique (Gold Rank 4)]
[Identity: Duan Household in Sword Ruins ]
[Recent Event: Overwhelmed by the host's Sword Intent, developed a strong urge to become his disciple]
Gold Rank Four Destiny, Glazed Sword Physique?
This person is truly gifted.
Lin Xuan nodded slightly, looked at Duan Nianwei in front of him, pondered for a moment, then waved his hand, and a white deer immediately appeared on the ground.
"This is..."
Duan Nianwei was immediately startled.
"This is the Holy Spirit; consider it your initiation ceremony as a sign of your mastery."
Lin Xuan spoke calmly.
He originally intended to bestow this Holy Spirit upon his clansman Lin Fang, but after much deliberation, Lin Xuan erased the thought from his mind.
Although the Holy Spirit is young, his strength and realm are already quite remarkable.
Although Lin Fang is quite talented, his current strength is insufficient, and he may not be able to suppress the white deer for the time being.
and...
The Holy Spirit, no matter what, is not a toy to be left unused. Since there is a covenant, it will inevitably be used and seen by others.
The Lin Household should absolutely not be attracting attention right now.
If he were to bestow this white deer upon Lin Fang, it would not only be unkind to him, but could also bring him a deadly disaster!
Now, Duan Nianwei, standing before him, is indeed a very good candidate.
Holy Spirit...
Duan Nianwei was so shocked by what Lin Xuan said that she was speechless.
Her eyes widened in disbelief.
As Duan Household, she was by no means ignorant of the world, and she knew some things about the Holy Spirit.
but...
The Holy Spirit have basically all been extinct. The Holy Spirit that remain are either extremely powerful or extremely precious, and are simply beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Even in her Duan Household Lineage, there wasn't a single Holy Spirit in the clan; she had only heard of them!
I thought my master was merely a master of unparalleled Sword Intent, but now it seems...
The master she was to become a disciple of was far more mysterious and powerful than she had imagined.
That's the Holy Spirit, you can't just give it away like that?
"Master..." Coming to her senses, Duan Nianwei quickly shook her head.
"I can't accept this, it's too precious!"
precious?
Lin Xuan smiled faintly.
He said, "It's nothing to me, please accept it."
"Now that you have become my disciple, you have joined the force I control. Besides you, I have seven other disciples under the Sword Pavilion, and you are the eighth."
"Now that you have joined my sect, you may accept this Immortal Grade Sword Manual and study it diligently."
Lin Xuan bestowed upon Duan Nianwei the sect's jade token from the Sword Pavilion, along with a portion of his improved Immortal Grade sword manual.
Although this Immortal Grade scripture is powerful, it is difficult for Duan Nianwei to cultivate with her current level of skill and Sword Intent. Once her foundation is damaged, her future may be hopeless.
Therefore, Lin Xuan revised and improved the first half of the Sword Manual and bestowed it upon Duan Nianwei. If she could complete the first half, it would not be too late to bestow the second half upon her.
The sword manual was a system reward, and this time no reward was triggered.
But it also shocked the Sword Fairy to the extreme.
What did she hear next?
Immortal Grade Sword Scripture...
Holding the sword manual in her hands, she trembled uncontrollably.
this...
Even in the Sword Ruins where she was, there had never been a sword manual of this rank!
Master...
And also the Sword Pavilion founded by my master...
Just how powerful is it?
At this moment, Duan Nianwei was extremely grateful that she had not made the wrong choice.
Seeing the excited Duan Nianwei, Lin Xuan simply smiled.
"Go back and study this sword manual carefully. If you don't understand anything, you can come and ask me."
"Go."
Without hesitation, Duan Nianwei bowed to Lin Xuan, then, filled with shock, took the things Lin Xuan had given her and left.
She came from the Duan Household, so she still had some valuable possessions.
There must be magical Law Artifact capable of containing living beings and sealing their aura; only in this way can the Holy Spirit be taken away.
Lin Xuan could understand why she left in such a state of agitation.
For sword cultivators, the allure of such sword manuals is fatal.
Duan Nianwei didn't sit down and start studying immediately; it was all thanks to her composure.
After she left, Lin Xuan began to check the rebates the system had given him.
[Ding! Congratulations, host, for investing in the Holy Spirit Frost Star White Deer! You will receive a rebate on the Immortal Beast, the Void Great Void Xuan Bing Deer!]
As soon as the system finished speaking, a little girl with antlers appeared before her.
It's tiny, barely reaching my waist.
Lin Xuan lowered his head, and the little girl with deer antlers also raised her head, her watery eyes meeting Lin Xuan's gaze, her cheeks still a little chubby.
He pointed to his mouth with his short, rounded hand.
"Hungry!"
Lin Xuan was speechless. Was he sure this thing was Immortal Beast?
She's clearly just a seven or eight-year-old girl!
Just then, the system panel appeared.
Various pieces of information about the other party came into view.
[Name: Great Void Xuan Bing Deer ]
[Host: Lin Xuan ]
[Status: Infancy]
[Realm: Thearch Realm ]
[ The Great Void Xuan Bing Deer the Void: A legendary Immortal Beast, born in an extremely cold land, nearing adulthood, and upon reaching adulthood, comparable to the Saint Realm.]
Looking at the little creature, Lin Xuan was both puzzled and shocked.
The Holy Spirit... He bestowed the Holy Spirit, and the system gave him Immortal Beast as a reward. He could understand that, but...
Is this little girl truly Immortal Beast capable of rivaling Saint Realm expert upon reaching adulthood?
And according to the system's description, this thing is about to reach adulthood?
But she still looks like a little girl with a sweet tooth.
Lin Xuan gave a helpless bitter smile, but since it was a Immortal Beast after all, he naturally wouldn't complain about the rebate the system gave him. He simply reached out and gently stroked the little head with deer antlers.
"From now on, your name will be Xuan Bing."
"Hungry!"
The little girl nodded, but this time she didn't point to her mouth; instead, she patted her flat little tummy.
Helpless, Lin Xuan took out a few pills from his storage ring.
However, in the days that followed, Lin Xuan realized that this little thing was simply a money-devouring beast!
Even in its infancy, its strength is comparable to that of the Thearch Realm expert.
Even Lin Xuan's Sword Qi can be frozen by this little guy.
Its strength is indeed terrifying, but the problem is that it eats way too much!
Let alone the resources Lin Xuan possessed, when he woke up in his Seclusion Chamber and looked at the empty room, he almost thought he had transmigrated again...
The little creature had chewed up all sorts of tables, chairs, and benches beyond recognition.
Moreover, it looked at him pitifully, and made a rumbling sound like thunder coming from its stomach.
"Master, Xuan Bing is hungry!"
Xuan Shuang wants to eat!
What else could Lin Xuan do?
He had no choice but to pick up the little guy and try to find something to eat to fill his stomach.
While feeling troubled, Lin Xuan also laughed in exasperation.
Even at his level of strength, he can't even feed his own spirit beast properly, that's truly...
Just then, the academy's communication system suddenly rang.
After the message was connected, Lin Xuan read it through, a hint of doubt appearing in his eyes.
Someone actually contacted him?
However, he had only been in the Eastern Continent for a short time and had only recently joined Holy Heaven. Logically speaking, not many people should know him.
Who could be coming to see him this time?
Filled with doubt, Lin Xuan got up and went to see the person who had specifically asked to see him.
When he entered the room and saw the woman sitting inside, he was slightly taken aback.
"It's you?"
