Xu Ran nodded, he might really have been affected.
After all, he was just a six-year-old kid and had been staring intently at the mysterious talisman for a few minutes... The chance of being affected was almost one hundred percent, a bit of purification was very necessary.
"Call Aunt Lu over..."
"Alright, alright, I’ll call right now."
Uncle Ye immediately contacted her.
In a short while, Aunt Lu arrived at the hotel, and as soon as she entered, she grabbed Ye Ping and scolded: "How could you be a bodyguard like this? Don’t you know how peculiar the pollution from the Resentful God is? How dare you let little Xu get in direct contact?!"
Uncle Ye lowered his head in guilt, not daring to rebut with a single word.
He had been too believing in Xu Ran at the time, forgetting that Xu Ran was actually just a six-year-old child with almost zero resistance to pollution.
A slight lapse in vigilance led to a major mistake! Alas...
"Raise your head!"
"You’re still an Inspector! You don’t even have this basic level of vigilance?!"
Ye Ping trembled, weakly raising his head. Aunt Lu was from the same generation as the director and watched him grow up, almost like a parent. Having made a mistake again put him in a most distressing situation, neither sitting nor standing was comfortable.
"You’d better remember this lesson well!"
While reprimanding, Aunt Lu simultaneously performed a purification spell, the golden light merging into Xu Ran’s body.
"How do you feel? Is it any better? If it is, then the purification worked. I can purify most types of pollution, except for spiritual pollution..."
Xu Ran’s eyelids felt heavy: "...still exhausted, weary and powerless. It must be spiritual pollution... Uncle Ye, where’s your Jade Flute, take it out and use it."
Uncle Ye smiled bitterly: "My Jade Flute has very little restraint against the Resentful God’s pollution. However, it does work wonders against Ghost Energy."
Aunt Lu: "...Even my light magic can’t purify it? This is troublesome! I’ll try again."
She continuously released the purification several times.
Xu Ran still showed no signs of improvement.
Aunt Lu’s expression became grave: "Ye Ping, you’ve caused major trouble!"
Xu Ran waved his hand: "It’s okay, it’s not Uncle Ye’s fault, I’m the one who insisted on researching those mysterious talismans. It’s actually not a big deal, I just need a nap."
Xu Ran reassured Aunt Lu and Uncle Ye.
Aunt Lu: "Little Xu, you can’t sleep right now. The Resentful God’s pollution is no joke."
Uncle Ye: "Right, little Xu, hold on a bit longer. Let us think of a solution. I’ll go and get someone else to help you with the purification."
Xu Ran smiled faintly, a confident glow flashing in his eyes.
Don’t forget, he had a hidden ace up his sleeve— a Purified Spirit Body!
[Purified Spirit Body (Golden Achievement)]: Blessed Fortune +30 points; toxins, pollution, ghost substances, upon invading your body, would be slowly purified by your flesh.
Over six hundred days of hard work finally achieved this golden legend, the effect is remarkable, no explanation needed.
Pollution? It’s meant to counter pollution!
With a sweep of consciousness over the golden achievement, Xu Ran’s smile was full of determination: "It’s fine, trust me, once I wake up, let’s bring the Nightmare Vengeful Mother out to kill for some fun."
With those words, Xu Ran quickly fell into a deep sleep.
Once asleep, his body, having undergone three innate baptisms, entered a perfect state of rest, consuming very little spiritual power but achieving the highest energy replenishment efficiency.
And upon sensing the presence of the Resentful God’s pollution within, the Purified Spirit Body got furious and immediately operated at full speed!
The purified energy, madly hunting down the Resentful God’s pollution.
A faint glow blossomed on Xu Ran’s body, with tiny black specks of dust floating away from his forehead.
The frequency of floating was neither fast nor slow, roughly one particle per minute.
The tiny specks of dust were hard for most people to notice, but Aunt Lu and Uncle Ye could see them clearly.
The two of them fell into mutual shock.
"Is Xu Ran’s body automatically clearing the Resentful God’s pollution in his sleep?!"
"How is that possible, for a body to automatically clear the Resentful God’s pollution, it should require some unique Light Element Root Bone."
Aunt Lu was at a loss to understand.
In her memory, only a cultivator with a Light Element Root Bone could automatically clear invasive Resentful God pollution, right?
Flame Element, Thunder Element, Water Element, Spiritual Element... they all needed purification to clear pollution.
How could Xu Ran self-purify?
This doesn’t make sense; isn’t it said to be a Comprehension Root Bone?
What does Comprehension Root Bone have to do with the body automatically clearing Resentful God pollution?
Aunt Lu’s mind was a jumble, she couldn’t think of a reasonable explanation!
"Pingzi, do you know what’s going on with this self-purifying ability of Xu Ran?"
Ye Ping shrugged: "I don’t know."
"But if it happens to Xu Ran, I think it somehow seems perfectly reasonable..."
His body technique speed matches that of a cultivator with 60,000 Qi Blood Value; four cultivators with 50,000 Qi Blood Value were defeated by him in one move;
These accomplishments on any other six-year-old would be unimaginable, but for Xu Ran, they inexplicably fit reality, as if his Comprehension Root Bone was naturally meant to be this invincible.
Aunt Lu: "Reasonable? This blatantly defies logic."
Ye Ping, with a matter-of-fact expression: "In Xu Ran’s case, defying logic is reasonable, isn’t it?"
Aunt Lu raised an eyebrow: "True."
Two hours passed swiftly.
Aunt Lu, delighted: "His body is indeed slowly detoxifying, the black smoke specks emerging from his forehead are becoming fewer, his breathing increasingly relaxed... This indicates that the pollution is almost gone."
Aunt Lu sighed in relief.
"Fortunately, Xu Ran’s body is unique, if something really went wrong, just wait for the director to beat you to death!"
Ye Ping shrank into a ball: "I know I was wrong Aunt Lu, please don’t tell the director this time. I’ll be ten thousand times more careful in the future."
Aunt Lu cast a glare at Ye Ping, saying nothing, just sitting by the bed, quietly awaiting Xu Ran’s awakening.
