"Senior, may I ask what the other thing you mentioned earlier is?”
Ning Caichen didn't answer him directly. Instead, he looked in the direction of Lanruo Temple and said,""You said that Lanruo Temple has become a ghost territory?”
"Yes, not only is there a thousand-year-old tree demon inside, but there are also dozens of small demons and ghosts under it. The former holy land of Buddhism has now completely turned into a ghost realm. Even if one is not careful, they will fall into the trap, let alone ordinary people.”Yan Chixia answered in detail.
Suddenly, Yan Chixia's expression changed.""Senior, could it be that the second thing you mentioned is related to Lanruo Temple?”
Ning Caichen still did not answer directly. Instead, he turned to Yan Chixia and said,""Since you know that this place has turned into a ghost domain and you are also a member of the Dao Sect, why don't you deal with it?”
Yan Chixia smiled bitterly." Senior, you might not know this, but I do have some cultivation. I'm already in the late stage of the Foundation Building realm and I know a few Taoist skills. However, just these skills are already inferior to that old demon. Not to mention, I still have many of his claws and teeth here.”
"That old monster? Is he very strong?" Ning Caichen said in a teasing tone.
"Very strong, you could even say that he is very strong. In fact, that old demon could have charged into the Greater Demon Realm long ago. Greater demons among demons are existences comparable to martial arts divine arts and Golden Core mighty figures.”
"However, something seems to be wrong with that old demon. Although it can already break through to the Great Demon Realm, it hasn't made a move yet. Instead, it has been capturing mortals and absorbing their essence. In fact, I have some guesses. That old demon might have been seriously injured a long time ago and injured its origin, so it has been absorbing human essence to nourish itself.”
"Although he didn't really break through, after cultivating for a thousand years, that old demon's strength has already surpassed the normal level. Even though he isn't a great demon, his demonic power isn't much weaker than a real great demon.”
"Although the Dao techniques I have learned are naturally able to restrain demons, they were also helpless against that old demon. Now that I think about it, I'm really ashamed.”
Ning Caichen knew that his strength was only a little bit weaker than the third rank.
"I see." Ning Caichen nodded. His expression did not change at all. He was extremely calm, as if he was an old demon close to the level of a big demon. To him, he was no different from an ordinary kitten or puppy on the roadside.
Seeing this scene from the corner of his eye, Yan Chixia was even more shocked. This senior's strength might be stronger than he had imagined.
"May I ask if the thousand-year-old demon in Lanruo Temple provoked you?”Yan Chixia asked expectantly.
He really had no way to deal with that old demon. Unless he really risked his life, he really had no way to hurt that old demon.
Now that he had encountered such a powerful senior, if he could get this senior to kill the old demon, Yan Chixia's biggest worry would be completely put down. The old demon was only here for a day, and the people who passed by within a hundred miles would be in more danger. He had wanted to get rid of the old demon for a long time.
Ning Caichen shook his head." He's just an old demon. He's not qualified to provoke me. It's another guy who provoked me."”
"I came here because of that fellow.”
As for what kind of person he was, Ning Caichen did not say, and Yan Chixia did not dare to ask.
"Yan Chixia, go around Lanruo Temple and help me investigate one thing. Check if there is a person called Xiao Qian among the old demon's claws.”
Yan Chixia nodded quickly." No problem. But, Senior, so what if there is? So what if there isn't?"”
"If you don't have it, then forget it. If you do, bring her here.”
Yan Chixia hesitated for a moment.”
Ning Caichen smiled and said,""I'm not someone who kills, but if someone wants to die, I don't mind helping them.”
Yan Chixia shuddered. It was a sentence full of killing intent, but this senior said it so casually. This extraordinary attitude was already extraordinary. It was hard to imagine what kind of shocking level this senior had reached.
"Senior, I understand."”
Yan Chixia turned around and glanced at Xia Hou, who was still sleeping. He gritted his teeth and said,""Senior, I will go and investigate for you. However, may I ask if Senior can allow my good friend to rest here for a while? I am really worried about the demons and ghosts outside.”
"Yes." Ning Caichen nodded.
With Ning Caichen's assurance, Yan Chixia's worries were completely put down.
Yan Chixia didn't say anything else. He turned around and got off the car. In a few seconds, he disappeared without a trace.
The workshop was quiet again. Ning Caichen was drinking wine while refining his strength.
Most of Ning Caichen's cultivation was brought by the spirit wine. This method of accumulating resources was not bad, but there was a small problem. Whether it was internal strength, magical power, or soul power, they were all a little superficial and impure. Ning Caichen needed to spend a lot of time to temper his own strength.
Ning Caichen rarely practiced, but once he started, he spent most of his time tempering his own strength.
After an unknown amount of time, Ning Caichen came back to his senses and looked at Xia Hou.
Xia Hou, who had been sleeping, suddenly frowned.
A moment later, a pair of eyes slowly opened. In an instant, an extremely powerful aura suddenly bloomed. This aura far surpassed the Houtian realm and also surpassed his former half-step Mr. Wang. This was the aura fluctuation of the Xiantian realm.
His eyes slowly came back to reality. When his consciousness was fully restored and he could see the surroundings clearly, Ning Caichen was the first to enter his eyes.
Xia Hou didn't even need to ask questions or verify anything. He knew that this excessively young person in front of him was the senior who had helped him break through.
Without another word, Xia Hou knelt on one knee and said,"" I am Xia Hou. I have been learning the sword for eighteen years. I have traveled through the Three Rivers and Five Mountains and seen the prosperity of the world. I thought that the sword in my hand was already at the peak of the sword path. It was not until I met you today that I understood what I wanted in my life and the extreme of the sword path.”
"Senior, I can't repay you for giving me the Dao. I'm only willing to use this body as your sword to help you wipe out the enemies. I hope senior can fulfill my wish!”
Looking at Xia Hou's serious face, Ning Caichen pondered for a while before saying,""I'm not a swordsman. I've only scratched the surface of the sword. Even so, don't you regret it?”
Xia Hou's expression didn't change." I won't change my words. I won't regret it in this life. I hope that Senior will grant my wish!"”
Ning Caichen fell silent. He did not quite understand Xia Hou's actions. Perhaps this was the pride of a true swordsman? Could it be some other reason?
However, he really couldn't find any reason to refuse.
"In that case, I still lack a coachman.”
"Thank you for your help, Senior!" As soon as Ning Caichen finished speaking, Xia Hou immediately replied without any hesitation. His face was full of seriousness, and there was even a hint of…joy on his face?
What else could Ning Caichen say? If he accepted it, then so be it. It was not a bad thing for a Xiantian level swordsman to drive a carriage for him.
He could replace the Wind Maiden. Although the Wind Maiden could also be a coachman, how could such a beautiful woman drive a carriage outside compare to the comfort of serving around him?
After all, wasn't it pleasing to the eyes?
