Demon Sword Immortal

Before leaving, Wang Limu reluctantly took out her phone, looking as if she wanted to leave a trace on Bai Xiang's phone but didn't dare to.

If at first glance she thought... this girl was just aloof and efficient, now Wang Limu felt she had seen through part of Bai Xiang's reserved nature.

She was truly vindictive, and she would strike where it hurt most from the start. She had a feeling that befriending such a person meant she would never lack high-profile exclusive stories, but she couldn't quite figure out what her attitude towards the media industry was.

Judging from her willingness to wear 'tech suits', she is not the kind of conservative.

Right, why would the old guard borrow my car? They even refuse to use any form of transportation; they insist on walking everywhere…

So she decided to test the waters, otherwise she wouldn't be satisfied.

Bai Xiang stepped out of the news van, turned around, first glanced at the "Xianglong News" on the van, then stared intently at the female reporter, meeting her gaze directly.

“I’m not the kind of scoundrel without any bottom line.” Wang Limu didn’t avoid her gaze at all and said, “I have always been committed to exposing all kinds of hidden social problems. You can search my name online, ‘Wang Limu’, or just ‘Limu’. You should be able to see that I have exposed several food safety issues, and there was even one case involving a pharmaceutical company bribing a hospital to abuse drugs.”

Bai Xiang frowned slightly.

She wasn't interested in this person at all, simply treating her as a tool. It could be said that Wang Limu herself and the news van she rode in held a similar status in Bai Xiang's eyes.

But now she's changed her mind, because she suddenly realized that while this kind of reporter wouldn't stand out in the open society of her previous life, this Great Yu is fundamentally not open at all...

"Aren't you afraid of dying?" she asked the first question that came to mind.

Not an exaggeration.

In feudal dynasties, besides royalty and nobility, who else could run food processing and pharmaceutical companies?

Although the Great Yu Dynasty has entered modern society, and its people are now more enlightened, with media and the internet, the efficiency of information dissemination has increased dramatically compared to ancient times. However, for those nobles, there are still countless ways to circumvent the law and destroy a small media outlet or a junior reporter.

"As long as sages exist, great thieves will never cease."

Unexpectedly, the female reporter grinned and uttered a sacred statement.

"Oh..." Bai Xiang squinted, but felt even more puzzled.

She wasn't surprised that this saying existed in the world, because she had long noticed that many famous ancient sayings from her past life would coincidentally be created in this world with similar backgrounds.

What struck her was how easily a journalist with a foreign name could speak about such things. Not only did he answer her question, but he did so with such eloquence and precision.

"This means that many people claim to be kind and righteous, and criticize evil from the standpoint of justice. But when this kind of power is born, it is destined that innocent people will be labeled as 'great thieves,' which is evil."

Wang Limu reached out and smoothed her loose hair, continuing, "It was originally something my mother used to satirize me... She said that media people do evil by portraying themselves as 'saints,' and she didn't approve of me going down this path."

“But I don’t entirely agree with her view.” She nodded. “This sacred saying follows ‘non-action,’ that is, ‘naturalness.’”

"According to this theory, 'saints' are also a kind of nature, which even includes 'the evil of saints,' so I think we can look at this issue more openly."

"It is true that we also have times when we act like 'saints' and do 'evil deeds of saints'."

"But we're also keeping an eye on other 'saints'~"

"If those 'saints' who seem greater and more superior than us are left without media channels to monitor them, who can guarantee that 'holy evil' won't become even more rampant?"

Is this a reconstruction that incorporates new ideas?

Bai Xiang had no interest in this philosophy, but she did take note of the unique journalist 'Wang Limu'.

She saved the other person's phone number and turned to go up the steps. She noticed that the number of onlookers had decreased significantly compared to before.

Especially the media personnel, not only were they all gone, but even the equipment wreckage she had destroyed in the grove was obediently cleaned up, leaving no trace.

The answer to this question came when they knocked on the door, to Bai Leying's eyes lighting up as she rushed over: "Wow! It's my sister!"

Bai dodged the lunge, grabbed her collar to prevent her from falling, and asked, "So the whole thing has already been broadcast?"

"Huh?" Bai Leying looked up at her and blinked. "We can watch videos?"

Talking to Bai Leying is always more difficult.

After a long discussion, Bai Xiang finally understood how many ripples his stone had created.

"The video cannot be found through any channels now."

Inside the dojo, Bai Xiang walked in front, while Bai Leying followed behind, gesturing.

"But there's a live text update! It says my sister shut down seven dojos in one go!"

"At first, no one wanted to believe it! But even the Red Dragon News reported it! Now they have no choice but to believe it!"

"My sister is so fierce!" she exclaimed excitedly, throwing a punch at the end.

"Those bastards! They should all be killed! Then their bodies should be trampled underfoot and thoroughly humiliated!"

As they shouted this slogan, the two stepped into the Shenming Hall at the back of the venue.

Bai Shengju sat upright in a grand chair, his hand resting on a teacup. His seemingly cloudy eyes swept directly at Bai Leying. Below him sat Bai Guanshan, Bai Lianzhou, and the rest of the Bai family, arranged in two rows.

Bai Leying immediately chickened out and quickly ran to Bai Zhuqing's side.

Just as he was about to say something and stick out his tongue, his mother, Zhu Ying, reached out and grabbed his ear, giving him a good scolding.

Even Xu Shu is here?

Bai Xiang first glanced at Bai Zhuqing, who was sitting obediently at the far left, pretending to be a lady, and then saw Xu Shu standing on the right. She thought to herself, "The whole family is here."

Xu Shu had already changed into the white training clothes that represented the inner sect disciples. Upon seeing Bai Xiang, he immediately stepped forward and bowed to her.

"Disciple Xu Shu."

"Welcome, Chief."

"Get up, everyone!" Bai Shengju suddenly slammed his hand on the table, startling everyone into standing up immediately.

Even he himself stood up tremblingly, and together with Xu Shu, he raised his hands and clasped his fists, trying to perform the same salute to Bai Xiang.

This is unacceptable.

Before he could bend over, Bai Xiang quickly went over to help him up and gently shook her head: "Grandpa, that's enough."

"Shenming has given me a second life, yet he's treating me like an outsider."

The other members of the Bai family had already performed their greetings to her as instructed by the old man.

Normally, it would be somewhat awkward for an elder to bow to a junior, regardless of the reason. But upon hearing her words, even Bai Guanshan, who was extremely concerned about his image, dispelled those strange feelings in his heart.

"You've done such a good deed! Aren't you going to bow down to me?"

Bai Shengju was so angry that he blew his beard and glared.

"You think you can't pray just because I'm blocking your way? You wait, I'll always find a chance to pray secretly!"

"dad--"

Bai Guanshan couldn't stand listening to this anymore.

What is this all about?

The younger generation, including Le Ying, are still around. You can't say things like that here!

To save face for his father, he gave his wife Zhu Ying and his sister-in-law Shen Xuelan a meaningful look, urging them to quickly take the two sisters and Bai Maoxu away.

Then he and Bai Lianzhou exchanged a glance, and together with Xu Shu, they also slipped away in the second batch.

Bai Guanshan isn't stupid.

He saw the word 'cicada chirping' written in the text broadcast.

Since being summoned to the main hall by the old man, just to wait for Bai Xiang's return, none of them had said much.

But everyone knew in their hearts what the words "cicada chirping" might mean.

This is a major event concerning the 'path' and 'inheritance'. It can be said that in the current Bai family, nothing else has a higher priority than this.

Nothing is acceptable, including the imminent Kendo tournament.

So let's leave some space for these two.

Let them have a proper talk.

As for Bai Xiang... she was still troubled by Bai Shengju's stubbornness.

But Bai Shengju also had his own reasons.

"Did you really bring the things back?"

He only stared at Bai and wanted to ask this question.

His voice trembled, and he didn't dare blink even once.

"Yes, but..."

Bai Shengju knew about the fact that the Demon Kingdom was involved in the Bai family's ancestral land, which Bai Xiang had spoken to on the phone before. She knew very well what her grandfather was asking about.

But that is not the reason she is worshipped.

Bai Shengju was stubborn, and she was just as stubborn.

Bai Shengju ignored her and shouted, "Then I'm worshipping that thing! Not you!" He then tried to continue worshipping her.

Helpless, Bai Xiang could only condense his Qi into a physical form, manifesting a phantom of a 'Startling Cicada' beside him in an attempt to divert his grandfather's 'hatred'.

This……

Bai Shengju was stunned when he saw this.

Then, he straightened his appearance, trembling as he prostrated himself on the ground, and performed a bowing ceremony to the illusory figure.

Chapter Six Night Visitor

As darkness fell, the city lights up in every household.

Bai Xiang had already moved to Bai Shengju's small courtyard and had just finished recounting the events of his trip.

Of course, it was a 'modified version'. It was roughly the same as what she told Huang Qian and the others. This was also to prevent the Bai family members from letting something slip later and thus bringing about their own deaths.

As for the 'Cicada Molting Method' hidden within the proper training method of "The Cicada of Startling Gods", there's no rush to teach that.

She had just tested it. Although her Qi still couldn't penetrate into other people's bodies without harming them, she could transmit vibrations into other people's bodies through the Vibration Sword Technique in the 'Divine Cry Sword'.

If you can do this, the subsequent operations will be much easier.

She immediately pulled Bai Shengju to sit down outside, pinching his pulse and constantly transmitting gentle vibrations through her fingers, while simultaneously summoning a phantom of his soul in front of her, reconstructing the 'echo' she felt through her fingers within the soul model.

Thus, Bai Shengju's flow roadmap was derived.

She can also refer to this image to target the stubborn old ailment between her heart and lungs and drive the 'vibration'. The principle is similar to using a fascia gun to remove fat and bruises.

If this treatment is repeated several times, Bai Shengju's physical condition will definitely improve significantly, which can be considered as achieving her original goal.

"So that's what Chai Jingyuan was planning."

"Is this the real 'Divine Cry Sword'?"

While savoring the story Bai Xiang had just told him and enjoying this unique treatment, Bai Shengju said with deep emotion, "These people plotted and schemed, but in the end, they benefited you. It can be said that evil deeds have brought about one's own downfall, and Heaven has opened its eyes!"

Finally, he added, "Master Mu Ying is even more talented, to have come up with such a technique by observing the cicada demon's vocalizations!"

Bai Xiang had told him all the essential sword techniques, such as the Sword Shaking Technique, Wrist Shaking Technique, and Leg Shaking Technique. Now that he thought about it, many of them were clearly stated in the old sword techniques, and they were almost self-evident.

I didn't even notice that; I'm truly dull and stupid, and I can hardly compare to the patriarch.

"A thousand books may contain false teachings, but a single sentence can convey the true essence."

Bai noticed his low spirits and tried to comfort him.

"Some things are straightforward, like a windowpane that can be easily pierced, but if you don't know them, you just don't know them; if you don't understand them, you just don't understand them. I only came to understand these principles after receiving the teachings of my ancestors."

"you're right!"

Bai Shengju enjoyed listening to her reasoning, and upon hearing this, his face lit up with a smile.

When other children try to reason with him, he just dislikes it, thinking it's pretentious or unrealistic. But when it comes to Bai Xiang, he has a completely different attitude, taking double standards to the extreme.

Not convinced?

If you don't like it, go adopt one yourself!

But what level is she at now?

Thinking of this, Bai Shengju glared at Bai Xiang.

The sword was definitely forged, since, as mentioned earlier, it was forged using the blank of the Zhenyuan Sword.

The visualization state... is inherited from the ancestral master, who directly imprinted the scroll into the mind, thus skipping the visualization state altogether.

The Divine Harmony Realm emphasizes the 'union of Qi and spirit,' requiring one to control and manage demonic power through mental flow until the six harmonies are perfected, truly mastering the demonic pool within the sword and condensing an external form possessing supernatural abilities.
