“You must be tired from the journey. Rest. In a few days, I’ll take you to see a purgatory on earth.” After
Na Luo finished speaking, he walked away. During the process, he returned to his female form.
After she left, Sheng Yang searched herself and found that Na Luo had taken her phone, interspatial
ring, and everything that she could contact the outside world with.
However, as long as the soul lamp she left in Yufu City didn’t extinguish, her father and brother would
know that she was safe.
Thinking of this, Sheng Yang calmed down.
She got up and walked around the underground palace. There was a deep-sea night pearl placed at
intervals on the walls of the underground palace. The underground was dim, but it wasn’t impossible to
see anything.
Sheng Yang walked in the underground city for more than an hour. During this time, she encountered
many people wearing peacock masks, but she couldn’t find a way to the outside world. Knowing that
she couldn’t walk out of the underground city alone, Sheng Yang gave up on the idea of escaping.
Sheng Yang couldn’t remember the way back to her room. She sat down cross-legged and meditated.
When Na Luo realized that she was missing, she would naturally come to look for her.
…
When Sheng Lingfeng returned to Yufu City, he saw that Sheng Yang’s soul lamp was still on and she
didn’t show any signs of weakness. Sheng Lingfeng was relieved to know that Sheng Yang was fine.
He even called Sheng Xiao and told him to focus on helping Yu Huang settle the Yin family’s matters.
He didn’t have to worry about Sheng Yang.
Sheng Xiao was relieved to know that Sheng Yang was safe.
From the next day onwards, the various large families gathered their disciples together and began to
investigate their identities. In order to investigate if there were any members of the Blood Peacock
Organization among the Yin Clan’s disciples, Yu Huang also gathered all the Yin Clan’s survivors for
inspection.
All the members of the Blood Peacock Organization had Su Xuanye’s soul mark in their Spiritual Abode
worlds. As Purifying Spirit Masters had the cleanest and most gentle souls, they were the most suitable
candidates to help search souls.
Yu Huang learned the Soul Searching Technique from Lin Jiansheng. Lin Jiansheng was in charge of
searching the souls of the Beast Tamers with higher cultivation levels in the Yin Clan, while Yu Huang
was in charge of checking Yin Rong and the other Beast Tamers with Master and Scholar cultivation
levels.
When faced with the inspection, the Yin Clan disciples were very cooperative. They trusted Yu Huang
and Lin Jiansheng very much and took the initiative to open their Spiritual Abode world to accept their
inspection. After three days of inspection, Yu Huang confirmed that the Yin Clan was clean and that
there were no members of the Blood Peacock Organization.
The situation was special. In order to completely investigate the situation of their disciples, the other
cultivation families and some sects also gathered all their disciples and requested to inspect their
Spiritual Abode worlds. Even a large family like the Sheng family participated in this event.
However, in the face of this arrangement, many people expressed objections.

“Patriarch! The Spiritual Abode World is the most vulnerable place for Beast Tamers. How can we let
others search our souls? What if there’s something wrong with the person who searched our souls? If
something happens to us, who will bear the responsibility?” The first to stand up and argue with Sheng
Lingfeng was an elder of the Sheng family.
With that, the Sheng family elder carefully stole a glance at Lin Jiansheng, who was standing behind
Sheng Lingfeng. He hurriedly said in a low voice, “Of course, I’m not doubting Saint Ling Xiao. It’s just
that this Soul Searching Technique is too dangerous and private. Everyone finds it hard to accept.”
Lin Jiansheng waved his hand and didn’t argue with him.
This was the Sheng family’s business. He was only a Purifying Spirit Master invited by Sheng Lingfeng
to the Sheng family to perform the Soul Searching Technique for them. He ignored everything else.
This elder was called Sheng Tangsheng, and he was once Sheng Lingfeng’s father’s trusted aide.
Later, he was injured in battle and had one of his legs crippled. From then on, he stayed in Yufu City
and took on the position of elder.
Sheng Tangsheng’s concerns were also the concerns of many members of the Sheng family.
Sheng Tangsheng cupped his fists at Sheng Lingfeng and said, “Besides, the Sheng family is
aboveboard and honest. We never do anything treasonous! Patriarch, you can rest assured that no one
in the Sheng family will submit to Su Xuanye! I think we should forget about the soul search.”
Sheng Lingfeng placed his hands behind his back. His usually kind gaze suddenly became sharp and
scrutinizing at this moment. Being stared at by Sheng Lingfeng with such a sharp gaze, Sheng
Tangsheng’s gaze flickered slightly, and he didn’t dare to look Sheng Lingfeng in the eye.
“Sect Master Jiang Yuyan of the Jiang family of Yang Mountain, was he aboveboard enough?! Was he
prestigious enough?! Even someone like him had submitted to Su Xuanye, so how do we know if
everyone in the Sheng family is upright?!”
Sheng Tangsheng lowered his head and didn’t dare to argue with Sheng Lingfeng anymore.
Sheng Lingfeng slapped the little lion beside him, causing a few cracks to appear on its body.
Seeing this, many disciples trembled in fear. Sheng Lingfeng lost his patience and roared loudly,
“Those who are innocent, those who dare to accept Saint Ling Xiao’s soul search, step forward!”
Sheng Lingfeng’s personal disciple, Sheng Zhou, was the first to stand out.
“Mentor, I have a clear conscience and has done everything openly! I’m willing to take the initiative to
ask Saint Ling Xiao to search my soul!” With that said, Sheng Zhou walked to Lin Jiansheng and
bowed to him before sitting down cross-legged in front of him.
Seeing that the Eldest Senior Brother was the first to stand out, the other disciples looked around
anxiously, curious as to whether this Soul Searching Technique was dangerous or not.
It was said that once the Soul Searching Technique failed, the Beast Tamer would become a delirious
fool. Logically speaking, Saint Ling Xiao’s cultivation level was so high that there should be no side
effects if he used the Soul Searching Technique.
After Sheng Zhou sat down, he closed his eyes under Lin Jiansheng’s guidance. He tried his best to
relax his body and opened the Spiritual Abode world to Lin Jiansheng. Lin Jiansheng extended his
psychic power into Sheng Zhou’s Spiritual Abode world. His psychic power was like tentacles that
searched and investigated Sheng Zhou’s Spiritual Abode world.
During this process, Sheng Zhou’s expression was slightly pained and distorted. After all, the Spiritual
Abode world was their most vulnerable place. No matter how gentle Lin Jiansheng’s psychic power
was, there was still a stranger invading his absolute domain!
After about two minutes, the Soul Searching Technique ended.
Lin Jiansheng’s psychic power retreated from Sheng Zhou’s glabella. He nodded at Sheng Lingfeng
and said, “This child is clean.”
Sheng Lingfeng nodded. He picked up a fountain pen and drew a line on the roster. Then, he shouted,
“Who’s next?!” Sheng Lingfeng abandoned everything and sat in the square to record it personally. It
was obvious how important this matter was to him.
Realizing that if they didn’t accept the inspection, they wouldn’t be able to eliminate the suspicion and
gain trust, Sheng Wuyang, Sheng Wuque, and the other disciples quickly stood up and accepted the
inspection. There were many disciples of the Sheng family. Apart from Lin Jiansheng, there were also a
few high-level Purifying Spirit Masters that Lin Jiansheng trusted.
This vigorous inspection lasted for four days.
On the afternoon of the fourth day, 99% of the Sheng family’s people passed the inspection. However,
there were still 18 Sheng family disciples who had not been examined standing in the square. Among
these people, the lowest cultivation level was that of a Supreme Master, and the highest was Sheng
Tangsheng’s.
Sheng Tangsheng had broken through to the Grand Master level 30 years ago and was now at the mid-
stage Grand Master level.
Everyone had been examined, but only these 18 people refused to be examined. This was very
suspicious. All the disciples looked at the 18 people with unfathomable expressions. Their gazes
gradually turned from calm to angry.
Sheng Zhou took the lead in questioning Sheng Tangsheng. “Elder Tang, why don’t you dare to accept
the examination?! With more than a thousand of us disciples as examples, it’s enough to prove that
Saint Ling Xiao and the others’ Soul Searching Technique is quite safe and won’t cause any harm to
our bodies. Without any worries, why don’t you dare to accept the examination?! Could it be that you
have a guilty conscience and are afraid of being discovered?”
The other elders who had been examined also looked at Sheng Tangsheng in disappointment.
“Tangsheng, if you want to gain our trust and clear your name, please come forward and take the
initiative to accept Saint Ling Xiao’s soul search. Lingxun, Lingyang, you guys are the same.”
Sheng Lingxun, Sheng Lingyang, and the other Supreme Masters grew up with Sheng Lingfeng. When
they heard the elders’ words, their legs seemed to be nailed to the ground and they couldn’t move.
Seeing this, Sheng Lingfeng mocked, “What’s wrong, everyone? Did you sprinkle glue on the square
and stick your shoes on it?”
Sheng Tangsheng clenched his fists. His face was pale, but he didn’t say anything.
“If the mountain doesn’t come, I’ll come to it.” Sheng Lingfeng bowed to Lin Jiansheng and said, “Saint
Ling Xiao, please move to the square and help Elder Tang Changsheng search his soul.”
Lin Jiansheng smiled. “No problem.”
With that, he teleported in front of Sheng Tangsheng in the blink of an eye. Lin Jiansheng squeezed out
a gentle and amiable smile at Sheng Tangsheng and comforted him. “Elder, don’t be nervous. Close
your eyes and relax. Just open your Spiritual Abode world to me.”
Sheng Tangsheng cursed inwardly, ‘F*ck you, relax my *ss!’
Sheng Tangsheng suddenly clenched his fists and his body suddenly turned into a pitch-black python.
The python jumped hundreds of feet in one leap to escape! At the same time, the disciples standing
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm
beside him also summoned their beast forms and ran towards the exit of Yufu City’s independent
space.
Seeing this, Sheng Lingfeng snorted and jumped into the void. A majestic pixie appeared beside them!
After breaking through to the Prime Master Realm, Sheng Lingfeng’s pixie had already gained a
physical body. The two of them could fight independently. Sheng Lingfeng held his broadsword and
charged at the big black python while the pixie chased after the 17 Supreme Masters.
When the pixie chased the Supreme Masters to the entrance of Yufu City, they suddenly stopped.
Seeing that the pixie had stopped, the Supreme Masters were about to rejoice. However, when they
looked up, they saw Sheng Xiao and Yu Huang leading Sheng Lingfeng’s personal disciples to stand at
the exit of the city gate with swords in their hands. They blocked their escape route.
Staring at the 17 Supreme Master traitors, Sheng Xiao raised the Dragon Sword in his hand and
shouted, “Kill the traitors of the Sheng clan!”
“Kill!”
Yu Huang was at the front. Under Yu Huang’s control, Xuan Yu spat out the Purifying Evil Phoenix
Flame at the traitors immediately. The traitors immediately mobilized their spiritual power to resist the
overbearing true fire. At the same time, Sheng Xiao and the others rushed towards them.
In the chaos, Yu Huang immediately used the Tear of Samsara. Under the meticulous control of her
consciousness, the Tear of Samsara enveloped the 17 Supreme Master traitors, and their bodies
instantly froze.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Black Qing Sky Dragon roared into the sky. He opened his
bloody mouth and bit the head of a Supreme Master, splitting the head and corpse into two. Black Qing
Sky Dragon twisted his dragon body and swung his head towards the square, smashing the Supreme
Master’s head into the middle of the square.
Yu Huang summoned the nine-tailed fox and wrapped its nine tails around the nine Supreme Masters.
With a swing of its tail, it threw them to the center of the square.
At the same time, Sheng Zhou, Sheng Wuyang, and the others killed the remaining traitors.
The 17 Supreme Masters were killed by Sheng Xiao and the others in less than two minutes!
In the sky, Sheng Lingfeng suppressed Sheng Tangsheng and captured him in two moves. He cut off
Sheng Tangsheng’s head and carried him back to the square with his clothes stained with blood.
Sheng Lingfeng threw Sheng Tangsheng’s head on the corpses of the Supreme Masters. He stepped
on the pile of corpses and held a large knife in one hand. His angry voice spread throughout Yufu City.
“Anyone from the Sheng family who dares to collude with the Blood Peacock will die without a
complete corpse!”
The entire Yufu City was silent.
Whether it was the commoners or the Beast Tamer disciples, they all held their breaths when they saw
the pile of bleeding corpses on the ground. They didn’t even dare to breathe loudly.
On this day, the Sheng family was cleaning up their family, and so were the other families.
They wouldn’t have known if they didn’t investigate, but once they did, they were shocked. There was
actually a group of traitors hidden in every large family. The lowest cultivation level of these traitors was
at the early-stage Supreme Master Realm, and the highest was even at the late-stage Grand Master
Realm!
In this grand operation, the various families of the Holy Spirit Continent had caught more than two
thousand Beast Tamers. The Blood Peacock had lost a large number of followers.
