Chapter 253 Li Tianhen: A Casual Pinch
"What do you want the demon seed for?" Li Tianhen frowned.
"Hmm, of course it's useful, hehe, Master, is it alright?" Si Nansheng chuckled, not directly answering Li Tianhen's question.
If Li Tianhen knew that she was going to absorb the demonic energy from the demon seed, I wonder if he would be frightened.
“Alright, I will speak with the Lord.” Li Tianhen sighed, and Si Nansheng’s eyes slowly returned to normal, the original blue light disappearing.
She put away the giant hammer in her hand, turned around and walked to Nan Qingge and the others. Nan Qingge reached out and tidied Si Nansheng's slightly messy hair.
"Junior Sister Si, are your eyes alright?" Tang Tingfeng looked at Si Nansheng's eyes with some concern.
"Is everything alright?" Si Nansheng raised her hand and rubbed her eyes. Actually, she also felt a little uncomfortable, but it shouldn't be a big problem.
"Your eyes are red. Do you want to go back and rest?" Nan Qingge asked softly, looking into Si Nansheng's eyes.
"It shouldn't be necessary, let's wait a while." Si Nansheng wanted to see how Li Tianhen and the others would deal with those cultivators with demonic seeds in their bodies.
"Can you tell me where the demonic seeds on your bodies came from?" Li Tianhen lowered his head, his eyes coldly fixed on the people on the ground.
"What nonsense are you talking about? We are all human cultivators, how could we have demonic seeds?" Some people were trying to muddy the waters, thinking that Li Tianhen and the others had no evidence.
But Li Tianhen reached out and an invisible force trapped the man. In an instant, he felt something being pulled out of his body.
"Ah~ let me go, let me go!" The man lay on the ground in agony, wailing, trying to get Li Tianhen to let him go.
Li Tianhen remained unmoved. Soon, a black mass was drawn from the man's dantian, and the man aged at a visible rate.
"Save me~" He reached out to Li Tianhen, wanting Li Tianhen to save him, but Li Tianhen seemed not to see him, his mind focused on the demon seed in his hand.
As Shang Ming looked at the demon seed, the desire to absorb it surged within him, but he quickly suppressed it.
Although it was only for a moment, Si Nansheng still sensed the faint aura emanating from Shang Ming.
She turned to look at Shang Ming, who was yawning nonchalantly. Si Nansheng blinked. Could it be that she was mistaken?
After Si Nansheng withdrew his gaze, Shang Ming realized that his back was already soaked with sweat. He had been too hasty and had exposed his demonic energy.
Now, Si Nansheng will definitely suspect him.
"What is that? I have a bad feeling about it." Su Hui frowned.
"The Demon Seed," Si Nansheng explained to them.
"A demonic seed?" Several people looked at Si Nansheng in shock, and Si Nansheng nodded.
“Back in the Pill Pavilion, I sensed the aura of a demonic seed on Zhuang Hong, which led to today’s events,” Si Nansheng said slowly.
Nan Qingge and the others all focused their gazes on Si Nansheng, their eyes conveying a clear and unspoken message.
The thief last night was definitely Si Nansheng, absolutely!
"Uh, my eyes hurt, I need to rest." Si Nansheng closed her eyes to avoid seeing anything.
This overreaction only made everyone more certain.
Ye Xiuran tossed a box to Li Tianhen, who put the demonic seed he had drawn into it. Then, at Ye Xiuran's prompting, he drew out all the demonic seeds except for the ones that had taken root and sprouted.
Those people also aged rapidly, looking at least ten or twenty years older.
"Did their life force get absorbed by the demonic seed?" Su Hui frowned as he looked at the cultivators lying on the ground.
"Yes, it must be that the demonic seed sensed that it was about to be extracted from the host's body, so it absorbed their life force before leaving," Tang Tingfeng said slowly.
"Even if I die, I'll drag you all down with me!" Zhuang Hong saw that his companions were already powerless to help, and knew that he couldn't just sit and wait to die.
Therefore, he planned to use self-destruction to drag Li Tianhen and the others down with him.
As he mobilized the spiritual energy within his body, his body began to swell like a ball.
Everyone watched Zhuang Hong nervously. Li Tianhen raised his hand and seemingly casually squeezed, and Zhuang Hong's body instantly deflated.
Si Nansheng's eyes gleamed as she watched Li Tianhen reveal this move.
Her master is indeed extraordinary!
Although he rarely makes a move, when he does, it always surprises Si Nansheng.
"You... how did you do that?" Zhuang Hong coughed up blood and looked at Li Tianhen in shock.
“…Just a casual pinch.” Li Tianhen paused for a moment before slowly speaking.
Si Nansheng's lips twitched. Sure enough, his master was a bit annoying.
Won't he get beaten up if he goes out like this?
"Who...who exactly are you?" Zhuang Hong looked at Li Tianhen in horror. With just a casual pinch, he managed to completely drain the chaotic spiritual energy in Li Tianhen's body.
"Just an ordinary cultivator, is there a problem?" Li Tianhen smiled indifferently, and everyone fell silent.
Si Nansheng's lips twitched: Master, don't be so smug. Are you trying to drive people crazy? You'll get beaten up!
"What should we do with the rest of these people?" Nan Haotian walked to Li Tianhen's side.
"The demonic seed inside them has already taken root and sprouted. If we try to remove it, they are very likely to die. Moreover..." Since it has already taken root, it is really difficult to remove!
"Lock them up first, and leave the rest to me." Ye Xiuran's voice came through, and Li Tianhen and Nan Haotian both fell silent.
With Ye Xiu Ran's help, they naturally wouldn't have any objections.
"As you can see, these people have all been implanted with demonic seeds. I had no choice but to use this method."
Whether they did it voluntarily or not, they were ultimately implanted with the demonic seed. Even with the best cultivation, once the demonic seed is removed, their dantian will be damaged, and their future cultivation path will be hindered.
Now, those among us who harbor the demonic seed have been identified. You all should be careful; if I discover any of you collaborating with the demons, don't blame me for being ruthless.
Nan Haotian's body flew up, and his voice resounded throughout the entire Holy Domain. A group of guards took away all the cultivators on the ground who had been corrupted by the demonic seed and locked them up. The rest were left to Ye Xiuran to deal with.
“Sheng Sheng, we…” Nan Qingge looked at Si Nansheng, only to find that Si Nansheng had already fallen asleep on Shang Ming’s back.
"She was probably too tired, so she fell asleep," Shang Ming said slowly.
"Then let her sleep." Nan Qingge sighed.
Li Tianhen turned his head and saw Si Nansheng sleeping. He helplessly raised his hand and used his spiritual power to lift Si Nansheng up and pull her to his side.
"I'll take her back first." Li Tianhen said to Nan Qingge and the others, then turned and left with Si Nansheng.
Nan Qingge and the others watched Li Tianhen's actions speechlessly. When they saw that Si Nansheng not only didn't notice anything, but also comfortably turned over, they couldn't help but give Li Tianhen a thumbs up.
"I'll take this." Li Tianhen held up the box in his hand to Ye Xiuran. Inside were the demon seeds he had drawn earlier.
My apprentice said he wanted it, so I have to get it.
