?

  She heard the woman call him Daoist friend, Mo Dashi repeatedly called himself a junior and didn't dare to, secretly thinking that it was indeed because of the affair by the banks of Yingxia River that they had come together. She wanted to see the younger generation of Mo family's cultivators, what was the matter? If there were ulterior motives, wouldn't the Mo family be destroyed in an instant?

  "What's wrong? Is there a lot of inconvenience?" The woman's voice came over, but it made Mo Dashan's body tremble.

  Mo Daxuan thought to himself that he was really muddled, the Mo family and this Foundation Establishment cultivator had no grudges or grievances, they just happened to meet at Yingxia River, logically speaking she wouldn't casually attack people, after all, indiscriminate slaughter would likely lead to being trapped by heart demons when advancing in the future, most cultivators unless related to their interests generally wouldn't kill people for no reason.

  Moreover, this woman wants to see the younger generation of the Mo family. As a mid-term foundation-building cultivator, even if he really wanted to block her, he couldn't. Thinking of this, Mo Dashi respectfully said: "Please wait for a moment, I'll call the younger generation of my clan to come and pay their respects."

  The melodious bell rang again in Mo Fu, and the faces of the monks from various temples changed slightly as they got up and hurried to the conference hall.

  "Grandfather?" Mo Qingchen was holding his chopsticks and eating when he heard the bell ring.

  Mo Danyan's eyebrows furrowed slightly as she asked, "What happened again?"

  Whenever the bell rings, it proves that something big has happened in the Mo family and all the monks of the clan need to go to discuss.

  Mo Qingchen followed Grandfather out of Yang Yi Garden, and on the way, they encountered many people who exchanged glances with each other, chatting reluctantly as they hurried to the council hall together.

  As soon as she stepped into the carved wooden door, Mo Qingchen saw a woman with a light gauze covering her face standing in the hall, what moved her was that the patriarchal grandfather actually stood beside the woman, his posture and expression extremely respectful.

  "You'd better hurry up and pay your respects to your seniors." Mo Daxian saw that the cultivators in his clan were looking at the unfamiliar woman with bewildered expressions, so he hastily shouted.

  Mo Danyan's expression changed slightly, and he was called "senior" by Third Brother. And this woman...

  He hastily grasped Mo Qingchen's hand and, along with the crowd, performed a grand bow, saying "Greetings, seniors." Afterwards, everyone stood in their original positions, but his heart was stirred up like a stormy sea.

  "No need for formalities, fellow Taoists. Your clan is indeed filled with talented individuals." The woman's vermilion lips lightly parted, her voice soft and gentle, yet every word fell into the hearts of the crowd.

  "Seniors have passed away, and talented people within the clan are dwindling, making it difficult to enter the grand hall." Mo Dashan said respectfully.

  The woman smiled lightly and said, "Fellow Daoist is too modest." As she spoke, her clear and transparent eyes scanned the crowd one by one. Everyone who was swept by her gaze felt like they were stripped bare, with all their secrets laid out in plain sight.

  Finally, the woman's gaze stayed on Mo Feiyan, Mo Ran, Mo Qingchen and Hu Tou.

  "May I ask if the four of you young friends would be willing to come forward and meet me?" The woman's words were polite, but her tone was not to be trifled with.

  Although no one was named, all four of them knew they were being referred to and didn't even think about resisting, obediently walking forward.

  The woman looked at the four people who walked up, two were eleven or twelve-year-old girls, and two were seven or eight-year-old children. However, one of the girls was a Qi Refining Eighth Layer, and the other was a Qi Refining Fifth Layer. The girl and boy were both Qi Refining Third Layer. With their age, they had such attainments. If it wasn't for having an opportunity, then it must be due to exceptional innate talent.

  This was also when she was fighting in the clouds, and suddenly felt that there were cultivators' auras below. She quickly released her divine sense to scan, and found that most of them were half-grown children. Their cultivation levels varied, but several of them caught her attention. If there were talented children with exceptional qualifications, taking them in as disciples would be extremely beneficial.

  To know that cultivators with spiritual roots, the majority are four spiritual roots, five spiritual roots, and three spiritual roots children. If their temperament is not bad, even if they are from a famous sect or large school, they will be willing to accept them. When it comes to dual spiritual roots, it can be said that as long as there's no accident, any sect will rush to recruit them. If they encounter a variant spiritual root or even a heavenly spiritual root seedling, they will fight over them.

  Mo Dashi saw the woman pointing out Mo Qingchen and the other three, and his heart moved. Could it be that this senior was thinking of taking them as disciples? If so, that would also be their great fortune.

  The woman pulled out a jade hairpin from her hair and transformed it into a green light that came before the four people.

  Mo Dashi's face changed color, if he guessed correctly, then the jade hairpin should be able to detect the spiritual root attribute of a cultivator.

  The Tianyuan Continent uses a jade plate to test the spiritual root attributes of cultivators, which is the same one that Mo Daxing used to test Mo Qingchen. This jade plate is called the Spiritual Discernment Plate. Using this plate for testing is the most accurate method, clearly showing how many spiritual roots a cultivator has and the proportion of each root. As for other objects, they can only roughly determine a cultivator's spiritual root attributes.

  Generally, when testing a family or sect, a spirit-measuring plate is used, but there are exceptions. For example, when walking outside and encountering someone with an unusual appearance, it's hard to tell if they have spiritual roots just by looking at them. At this time, if you don't have a spirit-measuring plate on hand, you can temporarily use another object as a substitute.

  Logically speaking, it is extremely impolite to directly test the spiritual roots of a family member in front of their patriarch. But who let them have such high cultivation? Book fans also like to read:

  In the Cultivation Realm, the strong are revered, and even if they act unscrupulously, lower-level cultivators dare not speak out against them.

  The jade hairpin lightly touched the tiger's head, emitting a red and yellow glow. It then swept across Mo Qingchen's body, with cyan, red, blue, and yellow lights illuminating the jade hairpin in a dazzling display. Next, it swept past Mo Ran's clothes, flashing golden and red colors. Finally, when it reached Mo Feiyan, the entire jade hairpin shone with a brilliant white light.

  The woman's face remained calm and unruffled until the jade hairpin shone with a white light, at which point her beautiful eyes widened in surprise, revealing a hint of emotion.

  Never thought that in this small family, there would be a good seed of mutant Ice Spirit Root!

  This Mo family is just a mediocre immortal practitioner family, but unexpectedly, two of the four children have excellent dual spiritual roots. Another little girl is somewhat strange, with four spiritual roots yet such cultivation, but she has seen countless cultivators and is no longer surprised. After all, spiritual roots are still the most important thing.

  This girl with icy spirit, facing her yet calm in expression, shows a strong and unyielding temperament, handling matters without alarm, quite like herself back then.

  The woman smiled slightly, turned her head to Mo Daxuan and said: "Brother is indeed humble. Just looking at these four children, the future of the nobility is just around the corner. I want to take that child as an apprentice, what do you think?"

  He pointed at Mo Feiyan who was wearing a white dress.

  It's a rare opportunity for a master in the Condensing Dan period to take a child from a noble family as an apprentice, but this woman's background is unclear, and Mo Daxuan hesitated.

  The woman's eyes were clear and transparent, her wrist lifted slightly, and a white token with a pinkish tint appeared in her hand. The two characters "落霞" shone brightly on it, the entire token radiating a brilliant light, making one know at a glance that it was no ordinary object.

  "Lu Xia Men!" Mo Dashan and Mo Lao Liu exclaimed in unison.

  It is well known that among the distribution of Xian Tian mainland's forces, the most famous are the four major sects and eight major schools.

  The four major schools are: Tai Xu Men, Wu Yi Pai, Yao Guang Pai and Luo Xia Men.

  The eight major sects are the Mingfu Sect, Yindan Sect, Tianzhen Sect, Lianbao Sect, Hehuan Sect, Yuke Sect, Yinshi Sect, and Zhen Shou Sect.

  Luo Xiaomen is one of the four major sects, and for a cultivation family like the Mo family, it's no different from a behemoth. Being able to enter it is a dream come true.

  "It turned out to be a senior from Luoxia Gate, junior was disrespectful, forgive me." Mo Dashan suppressed the turmoil in his heart and spoke with even more respect.

  The woman smiled faintly and said, "To be frank with you, fellow Taoist, I am one of the elders of Luoxia Gate, my Taoist name is Jiao Yue. The other day, I happened to see those children while fighting a demon at Luoxia River, it's also quite a coincidence."

  A senior in the Condensation Period could share her name with Mo Feiyan, showing that she was sincere about taking Mo Feiyan as a disciple.

  Mo Dashi hastily cupped his hands and said: "Thank you, senior, for your kindness. Feiyan, why don't you quickly pay respects to the senior?"

  Mo Fei Yan bowed and said: "Greetings, senior." Her voice was clear and cold, pleasant to the ear, and refreshing to hear.

  The fairy nodded in satisfaction, her soft voice taking on a hint of warmth: "Still calling me senior?"

  Mo Fei slightly raised her head, and saw that the woman was standing tall, with wide sleeves and a long skirt, surrounded by an ethereal aura, with a hint of a smile at the corner of her eyes, yet seemingly oblivious to everything around her. The people in the hall were all respectful and reverent, not even daring to breathe loudly.

  Is this one's own master?

  Thinking of this, Mo Fei Yan's heart, which was usually calm and waveless, also stirred up waves. He bowed down again respectfully and said: "Disciple Fei Yan greets Master."

  The Moon Fairy chuckled and smiled lightly, instantly easing the tense atmosphere in the hall. The other book friends looked on normally.

  "Elder, it's an honor for our family to have someone as esteemed as you take notice of us. It's especially fortunate for Feiyan. The sky is getting dark, why don't we move to the dining hall? That way, I can fulfill my duties as host." Mo Dashan said with a joyful expression that he couldn't hide.

  The fairy of the bright moon faintly shook her head: "No need, I still have urgent matters to hurry back to Luoxia Gate, and now take the little apprentice away."

  "What?" A woman in the hall shouted loudly, that person was tall and slender, with a cold temperament, it was Mo Feiyan's mother.

  Mo Dashi glanced at her and said to Huoyue Xianzi: "Don't mind, that's Feiyan's mother."

  The fairy nodded and said: "This is human nature, Feiyan, you can go say goodbye to your mother now."

  The heavens are unfeeling, once the master-disciple relationship is established, even one's own birth mother is just a mere acquaintance, and Hua Yue Xian Zi and several others including Mo Da Shan do not think there is anything improper about it.

  Perhaps Smoke took a step closer to her mother, and when she got close, the familiar scent of her mother was clearly audible. She then knelt down straight away, knocked three loud heads on the ground, and said: "Mother, Fei Yan has left, but one day when I have achieved my cultivation, I will definitely come back to see you, you must wait for me."

  He paused here, and the following voice gradually became lower and inaudible: "That person... just pretend that person is not there, you... still have Feiyan."

  The woman's eyes sparkled with tears, but ultimately didn't fall, and she nodded lightly.

  Mo Fei Yan took a deep look at her mother and then stood up and walked over to Hua Yue Xian Zi's side.

  The fairy of the bright moon glanced at everyone, finally looking at Mo Qingchen and the other two, lightly opening her vermilion lips to say: "Today, meeting the three young friends is also a coincidence, so this Jade Germ Pill will be given to the three young friends."

  As he spoke, several green lights shot out and fell into the hands of Mo Qingchen and his two companions.
