Chapter 5 Cai'er's Reincarnation Ceremony
Sheng Lingxin did not speak again.
He had been afraid of his grandfather since he was a child, and even when he was at his most rebellious, he dared not disobey or oppose him.
However, as he now holds a high position in the Assassin's Temple, he has come to understand that his grandfather was not heartless or even inhumane.
He just values the Temple and the Alliance more than anything else...
Sheng Lingxin knew that it would be useless even if he objected. As long as Cai'er really couldn't hold on and her life was in danger, his grandfather would never open the door of the cave and interrupt the reincarnation ceremony inside.
His reason kept convincing him that the overall situation should be the top priority.
Only by inheriting the legacy of the previous Son of Reincarnation and becoming a God-favored One with stronger talent and a higher starting point, can they lead the Assassin's Temple to rise again and even have the ability to take back the hinterland from the demons...
"Ah, Ayuan, I, I'm cold..."
Sheng Ling looked up in a trance, thinking it was his own illusion.
"This name..."
However, Shengyue, who was originally facing the grotto, turned around and looked at him, "Who is it?"
"Yes, it's the child of Yanyu's friend, Zixi." Sheng Lingxin replied somewhat awkwardly.
"Zi Xi?"
A look of understanding soon appeared on Shengyue's face. It was obvious that he still remembered the member of the demon hunting team who sacrificed himself for their exorcism, and he even remembered Xingyuan's name.
"Ayuan, Xingyuan, are these the same child?"
"Yes." Sheng Lingxin replied in a low voice.
"Go bring it over and see if it can help."
Shengyue could sense that Cai'er was on the verge of collapse, so as long as anything could be done to help Cai'er in the slightest, he would try his best.
"Yes."
……
In the Magic Branch Hall, Lan Yanyu allocated a study room for Tan Wan's teaching.
Carefully looking at the report card handed over by Xingyuan, the expression on Tan Wan's face gradually became more solemn.
Incredible, incredible.
It is very likely that the apprentice I recruited has a much more solid basic knowledge of magic than myself as a mentor.
You have to know that she didn't get such high scores in many of these subjects back then, and even failed a few of them.
Normally, it would take at least five years to graduate from a specially established preparatory magician class.
It took her three years, while Xingyuan only studied there for less than a year, which was faster than her teacher.
Especially after seeing that Xingyuan showed different degrees of sensitivity to the seven common elements today, Tan Wan's mood became even more complicated.
Although all living species on the Holy Demon Continent have varying degrees of affinity towards all elements in the world, there are people like Xingyuan who show affinity towards every element, which means that he has reached the standard of becoming a magician in every element.
She was sure that even if she searched their entire Magic Temple, she would not be able to find someone like Xingyuan.
She has an affinity for three elements: wind, water, and light.
However, since a person's energy is limited after all, it is impossible to cultivate every element at the same time.
Her teacher once said that a jack of all trades is a master of none, and he also showed her his affinity for the five elements. This made Tan Wan determined to concentrate on practicing the wind element magic with the highest affinity, the same as her teacher.
"Teacher Tanwan, what should we do now?"
Xingyuan blinked curiously and asked next to her. Looking at Xingyuan's cute face that seemed to be tempting people to commit a crime, Tan Wan also resisted the urge to rub it hard with his hands, and turned away with a slightly red face.
"The teacher will ask you a few questions first, and then decide whether to give you a lecture or teach you meditation first."
"it is good."
Seeing that Xingyuan, who was so much younger than him, was so serious and had no intention of joking around, Tan Wan breathed a sigh of relief for no reason.
Originally, she was still worried that she didn't have enough aura to control the situation.
And what should I do if Xingyuan can’t concentrate on studying and I can’t bear to scold him?
However, it turned out that these worries were completely unnecessary.
……
The grades on the transcript were indeed not fake. Xingyuan could give the most correct answer to every question asked by Tan Wan, and his answering speed was even faster than the speed she asked the questions.
Tan Wan: “…”
stressed.
For the first time, Tan Wan hoped that his students could be a little dumber, and it didn't matter if they knew nothing.
She would rather start from scratch with Xingyuan than be in a mess like this, not knowing what to teach him.
"that."
Tan Wan had an awkward smile on his face, and discussed with Xing Yuan who was looking forward to the follow-up courses: "Why don't we take a break first."
But the class has only been going on for less than fifteen minutes...
"it is good."
Xingyuan didn't have any objection. He just wanted to quickly enter the stage of testing his innate inner spiritual power and elemental affinity. It was understandable that Tan Wan examined his level of knowledge just in case.
"Teacher, can I use the tools here during my break?" Xingyuan asked, pointing to the alchemical tools beside him.
"Of course no problem." Tan Wan said with a touched look on his face.
What a thoughtful brother, he must have seen his sister's current embarrassment and pretended to fiddle with the alchemical equipment so that he could have time to prepare for the next course content. Tan Wan thought to himself.
After obtaining the other party's consent, Xingyuan stood up and checked the cabinet to see if there were the medicine-making materials he wanted, leaving Tan Wan alone there to continue thinking about it slowly.
Gray wolf bones, blood branches, golden sedge...
Very good, the materials for refining the most basic body-building pills are all here. After Xingyuan checked them, he started the furnace directly.
With the help of his ability of future vision, he can see the quality of the pills after they come out of the furnace under various conditions of heating. In other words, as long as he makes full use of his ability, he will never have a furnace explosion or even a situation where the quality of the pills is poor due to mistakes.
Otherwise, how could the alchemy instructor in the academy give him the key to the alchemy room and even write him a letter of recommendation, stating that if he wanted to pursue a career as a potion master in the future, he could go to the elders in the Potions Masters Association to become their disciple and study.
It’s a pity that Xingyuan has no interest in this area and even forgot where the recommendation letter went.
With the ability of future vision in hand, it can be said that as long as the materials and recipes are in place, there is no elixir in this world that he cannot refine.
However, before Xingyuan could pour the ground wolf bones into the furnace, the door of the study room was opened.
"Uncle Saint? Aunt Lan?"
Xingyuan looked up in confusion, then immediately realized, why could Sheng Lingxin find him at this time, except that it was related to Cai'er?
"Come with me." Sheng Lingxin said concisely.
"it is good."
Xingyuan didn't ask what it was about and just followed him, leaving only Tan Wan and Lan Yanyu with puzzled looks...
