Li Fan said solemnly, "Brother Mo, you need to be prepared!"
Inside the room.
Lin Mo gently placed the young girl in his arms onto the bed, pulled over the brocade quilt, and covered her with it.
The young girl's sleeping face was serene, her long eyelashes trembling slightly on her fair skin.
On that breathtakingly beautiful face, there was still a hint of the innocence of a young girl.
However, the mysterious pattern that flickered between her brows, interwoven with blood-red and sacred light, added an indescribable nobility and allure to her.
"Brother Mo, is my younger sister... really alright?"
Liu Qingyao was currently guarding the bedside, tightly grasping Liu Qingyu's hand, not daring to let go for a moment.
She looked up and asked with concern.
"Don't worry, Qingyao."
Lin Mo reached out and gently ruffled her head.
"Qingyu's condition has stabilized."
"I believe she will be fine."
Liu Qingyao nodded, but the worry in her heart did not dissipate.
She looked at her younger sister, whose appearance had changed so much—her graceful figure, her exquisite beauty—all made her feel incredibly unfamiliar.
She hesitated for a moment, but still couldn't help but ask:
"Then what exactly happened to my younger sister just now?"
"And... why did she suddenly grow up?"
This question also voiced the thoughts of everyone present.
Su Qinghan and Sikong Yang both cast inquisitive glances at Lin Mo.
"This... I'm not too sure either."
Seeing everyone looking at him, Lin Mo was momentarily speechless.
He also wanted to know why this was happening.
Could it be that Liu Qingyu truly had another powerful being within her, as Revered Master had said, attempting Possession?
But looking at her earlier, it didn't seem quite like that.
Although the power that devoured her vitality was terrifying, Liu Qingyu's consciousness did not seem to be completely extinguished; she even recognized him... If she were being possessed, she definitely wouldn't act like this, would she?
"Cough, cough... Brother Mo."
Just then, Li Fan leaned over and lowered his voice.
"Why don't we find another place to talk?"
"I might have some clues about what happened to Miss Qingyu..."
Lin Mo understood immediately, nodded, and followed Li Fan out of the room.
Gu Zhiyun, Su Qinghan, and Sikong Yang, seeing this, also followed them out; they all wanted to know the answer.
Only Liu Qingyao, whose heart was set on her younger sister's safety, decided to stay by her side until she woke up, never leaving her for a single step.
After leaving the room, everyone went into the quiet room where Lin Mo usually Cultivated.
Li Fan looked at the people present, then suddenly revealed an unprecedentedly serious expression and turned his gaze to Gu Zhiyun.
"Miss Gu, the following conversation is of utmost importance."
"Is there a Formation that can shield the Heavenly Dao as much as possible, ensuring our conversation won't be leaked?"
Gu Zhiyun was stunned, seeing Li Fan's solemn demeanor, which didn't seem like a joke.
"A Formation to shield the Heavenly Dao?"
"Oh, Little Brother Li, you think too highly of me."
"That kind of Formation can only be set up by a Formation Dao Grandmaster of at least the seventh rank."
"With my current skill, I'm still far from that!"
Gu Zhiyun spread her hands, speaking truthfully.
Shielding the Heavenly Dao meant temporarily severing the Karma connection with heaven and earth within that space, which was akin to deceiving the Heavenly Dao—not a simple task.
With her current abilities, even though she had just received the Legacy of a Formation Dao Emperor, she simply couldn't set up such a heaven-shaking Great Formation.
"You can't?"
Li Fan's seriousness made the atmosphere heavy.
"..."
"Then what about setting up a simple anti-peeping Formation?"
Hearing Gu Zhiyun say it was impossible, Li Fan hesitated for a moment, then could only settle for the next best thing.
"That's no problem."
"Little Brother Li, don't worry."
"I will do my best to conceal our upcoming conversation."
Since Li Fan was being so cautious, Gu Zhiyun naturally guessed that what he was about to say must be quite astonishing.
Therefore, she didn't dare to be careless, and after asking everyone to wait for a moment, she began to busy herself inside and outside the small quiet room.
She moved her jade hands, and streaks of Formation patterns appeared out of thin air, then disappeared into the Void Realm.
In a short while, she had set up a dazzling series of Formations inside and outside the quiet room.
Sikong Yang watched from the side and even discovered several layers of killing Formations that he couldn't understand at all, nested one inside another, profound beyond measure.
This left him somewhat bewildered.
"This Young Miss is actually a Formation Master of no small skill?"
"Disciple, where did you meet her?"
Formation Masters were even rarer than giant pandas in the barren and backward Canglin Domain.
And someone like Gu Zhiyun, who could effortlessly set up such complex Formations, would be hard to find even if one scoured the entire Canglin Domain.
"Revered Master, it's a long story."
"It's like this."
Seeing Sikong Yang ask, Lin Mo briefly recounted what had happened earlier in Hidden Dragon Valley.
"Crushed a Nascent Soul Dharma Aspect projection with one punch?"
"Slashed a trial Formation set up by a Formation Dao Emperor with one sword?"
"..."
After hearing all this, Sikong Yang was once again rendered speechless.
He could no longer find any words to describe Lin Mo.
Because every time he thought Lin Mo was already Prodigy enough,
After a few days, Lin Mo would always refresh his perception with an even more Prodigy and incredible demeanor.
Now, he truly believed that Lin Mo was fully capable of protecting Su Qinghan.
After all, Lin Mo was only in the Spirit Sea Realm now, yet his normal combat power was already comparable to a Peak Nascent Soul.
If he were to Breakthrough to the Golden Core Realm, wouldn't he be able to easily defeat even a Soul Transformation expert?
And he, back then, had exhausted all his efforts, given up everything, and only barely reached the Spirit Transformation Realm?
The current Lin Mo had completely surpassed and crushed him!
"Good... very good!"
"Disciple, you have now completely surpassed your Revered Master."
"Yes, surpassed in all aspects."
"This way, I can finally rest assured!"
He forced himself to raise his hand and heavily patted Lin Mo's shoulder.
On his originally bloodless face, a faint flush of excitement even appeared.
"All thanks to Revered Master's help."
"If Revered Master hadn't given his all to help me, my strength would definitely not have improved so quickly in such a short time."
Lin Mo spoke these words from the bottom of his heart!
If not for Sikong Yang teaching him the Geng Metal Sky-Splitting Art and the introductory volume of the Overlord Indestructible Body, his current strength would certainly not be so abnormal!
Without his current strength, he would not have been able to easily exact his revenge earlier.
Nor would he have met Gu Zhiyun, and thus unexpectedly obtained clues to the Myriad Origins Return to One Great Formation.
He probably wouldn't even have been able to handle Liu Qingyu's sudden abnormality today.
Therefore, Lin Mo was now sincerely grateful to Sikong Yang, his Revered Master,
And also grateful that he had previously been willing to risk his life to try and save Liu Qingyu.
If his previous respect for Sikong Yang had only been on the surface,
Then now, it was entirely out of genuine emotion.
Sikong Yang had completely gained his approval.
"Alas, compared to your talent, my small assistance is not worth mentioning."
Sikong Yang waved his hand.
"Ever since I established the Qingxuan Sect, I have always hoped for someone to appear and share my burdens."
"Unfortunately... after so many years, I never met anyone."
"Of course, this is normal."
"I was mentally prepared for it."
"But I never expected that just when I was about to give up hope, you appeared before me."
"Tsk, I have to say, this is also a kind of Heavenly Dao, isn't it?"
Sikong Yang's emotions of emotion were evident.
His extravagant hope back then was merely to find a suitable candidate who was qualified to take the sacred sun token to participate in the assessment, and then entrust Su Qinghan to them.
However, he also understood that this was almost impossible to achieve in the barren and small Canglin Domain!
But he didn't give up, so he founded the Qingxuan Sect with a try-it-out attitude.
Who would have thought that because of his persistence, a miracle happened twenty-some years later!
He not only found a suitable candidate, but the extent of their Prodigy was far beyond his imagination!
To be honest, Sikong Yang had felt like he was dreaming these past few days.
Every day when he woke up, he even had to pinch himself hard to remind himself that all of this was truly not a dream!
He, Sikong Yang, had truly taken in a Prodigy Disciple who could be called a top Prodigy even in the entire Shengyang Prefecture!
Just as Sikong Yang was filled with emotion, Gu Zhiyun, who had finished setting everything up, walked back.
"Alright, mission accomplished, done!"
Seeing this, Li Fan took a deep breath,
Then he looked at Lin Mo and finally spoke, word by word.
"Brother Mo, you must be mentally prepared for what I'm about to say."
"Because what happened to Miss Qingyu might completely overturn your imagination!"
