As he spoke, he shook his head slightly. Lu Yu and Shi Tou naturally understood what this meant. The two looked at each other without saying anything. Shi Tou knew that cracks had appeared in his martial soul barrier. He didn't know why Lu Yu acted like that, as if his martial soul was in a hopeless state.

But an intuition made him choose to trust Lu Yu. If he didn't understand, he shouldn't talk, so as not to affect Brother Lu Yu's plan... Lu Yu said to Su Yuntao with gratitude: "Brother Yuntao, you have worked hard. There is still one child left. I will call him in later. After testing him, you can take a rest."

"I'll take you around our village in a bit. There are a lot of fun places and games in the village. If you're interested, you can try them out."

Su Yuntao nodded, satisfied with Lu Yu's understanding. If he wanted to maintain his war wolf form, it would consume a lot of soul power, so it would be best to end the battle quickly. He had indeed wasted a lot of time on this boy just now. If Lu Yu wanted to thank him, there was nothing he couldn't accept.

After Lu Yu signaled to him, he took Shitou's hand and said, "Shitou, I'll take you home. Don't be sad. Not having a martial spirit... is no big deal. Let's go!"

After walking out of the Spirit Hall, the village chief was hurried back. When he saw Shitou, he was about to ask, but Lu Yu shook his head slightly. The village chief was tactful and said nothing more. Lu Yu said, "The spirit awakening ceremony of village chief Shitou has ended. Now you can take Afeng in. I will send the child home first."

After hearing what Lu Yu said, the village chief nodded quickly and walked in with Afeng. Because Shitou had been attacking the barriers in his body, his soul power was greatly consumed. Now he looked pale and his overall condition was not very good. Afeng thought that Shitou was sad because he had no martial soul.

He looked at his childhood friend with a little worry, thinking that after he finished the martial spirit test, he would go to comfort Shitou... On the other side, Lu Yu was walking hand in hand with the silent Shitou, but the route they took was not the route to Shitou's house, but the route back to the village chief's house.

Shi Tou was surprised for a moment, then returned to normal and just followed Lu Yu without asking any questions. Lu Yu looked at Shi Tou's performance and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Is this the child of a noble family? Even if he didn't grow up in such an environment.

But his own temperament should not be underestimated - why didn't he notice it before? Lu Yu thought about it, oh, right... When Shitou was still young, he had been out practicing for so many years, and he hadn't come into contact with this child, so of course he didn't know what he was like.

What they heard were just some rumors... When they arrived at the village chief's house, Luo Shen and the village chief's grandmother heard the sound and hurried out of the house. They saw that not only Lu Yu came back, but Shi Tou was also with him. They both greeted little Shi Tou with a smile, especially the village chief's grandmother. She was an old man with a very good temper and she loved the younger generation very much whenever she saw them.

In this continent where martial spirits are respected, Shi Tou and his parents are all ordinary people without martial spirits, and their lives are extremely difficult.

One can imagine the cold stares and indifference she will face, even in the Holy Soul Village. However, she does not discriminate against Shi Tou and his parents like some villagers do. On the contrary, she will greet them every time she meets them, and even say a few words to them... This time, the reason why they can work together to develop the tourism industry and all listen to Lu Yu is because it is profitable, otherwise they would not be so united at all.

But this is human nature. Lu Yu did not comment on it, nor did she make any further comments. She smiled and said, "Xiao Shitou is here. You have come to the right place today. You are in for a treat."

"I made delicious rice cakes with red bean paste and sugar filling inside. Come and try some."

"Take a look at grandma's cooking. Is it as good as your mother's? If you like it, I'll bring some home for you when we leave later."

The village head grandmother knew the situation of Shitou's family, so she was considerate and didn't ask such questions as "How is your martial soul awakening? What is your martial soul?"

On the contrary, she didn't even mention it, but just talked about what delicious food she had made today, using delicious food to comfort the poor child in front of her... Shi Tou felt the kindness of the village head's grandmother, and he nodded slightly, but Luo Shen noticed something wrong between Lu Yu and Shi Tou's expressions.

Luo Shen didn't say anything, but just walked quietly to Lu Yu. If Lu Yu needed help, she would be able to help. Lu Yu looked at Luo Shen's obedient appearance and felt very comforted. He gently squeezed Luo Shen's hand.

Seeing that the village head's grandmother had naturally taken the stone from his hand, Lu Yu stopped in the yard and did not move inside. When the two figures, one old and one young, disappeared in the yard, Lu Yu whispered to Luo Shen, "This child's situation is a little special."

“In a few words, I can’t explain it to you, but Su Yuntao will be back soon, and this child is not suitable to be here for the time being.”

"Take the child away in a while, accompany him to relax and have some fun. After I send Su Juntao away, I will come to find you as soon as possible."

Luo Shen nodded and did not ask Lu Yu what was going on, because she had absolute trust in Lu Yu. Luo Shen knew that there must be a very important reason why Lu Yu said that. As long as she cooperated with Lu Yu, he would tell her if there were any specific problems afterwards.

After a while, the village head lady came out smiling, holding Shitou's hand. There was still some red bean paste on the corner of Shitou's mouth, and he was holding some rice cake in his other hand. He looked very happy.

Lu Yu said softly to Shitou, "Good boy Shitou, let Sister Luoshen accompany you for a walk. Your parents are busy making money now, so it's not appropriate to disturb them for now."

Shi Tou knew his family's circumstances well. His parents were able to get this job with the help of the village chief. It was not easy for them to get it. His parents cherished this job very much. So what brother Lu Yu said was right. It was useless to rush about everything now. It would be better to wait until they finished their work. So he nodded obediently.

Lu Yu rubbed his head: "Brother, just happened to be here, sending the guests away..."

"I'll come back to you when I'm done with this."

"When the time comes, I will explain everything to you clearly. You don't have to worry about anything else now. Just have fun and have fun."

Although Shitou did not grow up in a wealthy family, he grew up with parents who had no martial spirits. He had long been accustomed to the cold eyes of the world and suffered from the indifference of the world. Naturally, he heard the hidden meaning of Lu Yu's words at this time... His eyelids drooped, making it impossible to see the expression in his eyes.

It was hard to tell what he was thinking. After a while, he raised his eyes and looked at Lu Yu, nodded and said, "Good brother Lu Yu, I will listen to you. I will be good and will not cause trouble for sister Luoshen."

Lu Yu smiled and patted his shoulder, saying to him: "Shi Tou is a man, I believe you can do it."

"Okay, I think in this period of time, Afeng should have almost finished his spirit test. The village chief and the Spirit Hall's messenger should also be back."

"You two can go have fun. If you have anything, tell Sister Luoshen!"

Shitou politely said goodbye to the village head lady and Lu Yu, then naturally took Luo Shen's hand and led her in another direction... Before leaving, he looked at Lu Yu and the village head lady with a firm expression, and made a secret resolution in his heart - if he could really succeed in the future, he would definitely, definitely thank these people who were kind to him and protected him.

Lu Yu looked at Shitou's back as he left, his expression thoughtful. The village head grandmother, who was standing shoulder to shoulder with Lu Yu at this time, only asked lightly: "Is Shitou's matter...easy to solve?"

Lu Yu raised his eyebrows and turned to look at the village head's grandmother. He didn't expect that the old lady also saw that there was something wrong. Or was she also an insider? Lu Yu was not sure, so he just sighed and said, "I'm afraid there will be some trouble..."

"I don't know the details yet. If the trouble is too big, I will take the people away. I can't let the people in the village suffer from unnecessary disasters."

The village head's grandmother had not expected that Lu Yu would actually say this. Her heart suddenly skipped a beat. It seemed that the problem with this kid was not easy to solve. In fact, as early as when Shitou's parents brought the child back, the village head's grandmother realized that the child's life experience was unusual.

The couple had been working hard outside for many years, and although they had assets, they were not truly wealthy. On the day they brought the child back, the village chief's grandmother also went to see the excitement and noticed something was wrong at a glance.

You have to know that when she was young, she was a famous embroidery and weaving master in the surrounding villages. Although she later married an old man and worked on the farm with him, her hands gradually became rough and she could no longer do embroidery and weaving.

But her eyesight was still not bad - although the child's swaddling clothes looked very simple and were made of dark black cloth, they were shimmering under the sunlight. It was obviously not a cloth that ordinary people could afford. The village head's grandmother took the opportunity to look at the child and reached out to touch the cloth.

The fabric was extremely smooth and cool to the touch. It was obviously made of natural silk. Natural silk is extremely rare, and the fabric made from it is worth a fortune... The village head's grandmother was convinced at that time that the child was not their biological child.

So the village head's grandmother tried to inquire about the child's origins many times, but when she saw that the couple did not show any fear, she felt relieved.

I'm afraid that this child was obtained by chance by the couple. As long as it wasn't stolen or kidnapped, it would be fine! If the biological parents come looking for him in the future, just return him to them. Although I want to give the couple a few words of advice.

But the village head grandmother didn’t know whether she should say this or not. Later, seeing the couple being so happy every day because of the arrival of the baby, the village head grandmother finally swallowed the words that were on the tip of her tongue. This went on for six years…

In the past six years, the village head grandmother watched their family love each other and get better and better, and thought that nothing would happen. She had been overthinking before. Who would have thought that the bad would not work, and the good would work. Today, there would be problems with the awakening of the martial soul...

The village head's grandmother had made special observations of Shitou's father and mother and knew that the two of them truly loved the child. If the problem were easy to solve, it would be fine. But now it is not easy to solve, and she didn't know if the two of them could bear it.

Thinking of this, the village headwoman sighed heavily... But as an old woman, she didn't have any better solution to this matter, so she could only wait and see.

Lu Yu and the village chief's grandmother had not been standing at the door for a while when they heard the village chief and Su Yuntao talking. They looked in the direction of the voices and saw that there was no joy on Su Yuntao's face. It seemed that the martial spirit test of the last child was not ideal.

In fact, this is very normal. After all, the parents in this village do not have any particularly excellent martial souls. It is difficult and the probability is extremely low for them to have martial soul mutations or other more powerful martial souls.

Just as they were thinking about the two people gradually approaching, they nodded to each other, and Su Yuntao said: "Although I also hope that there will be a few excellent martial spirits in your village, it is a pity."

"It seems that you still don't have it this year. In this case, I won't stay in your village any longer. I will leave soon."

When Lu Yu heard him say this, he immediately tried to persuade him to stay: "Since Brother Yuntao has already said that he has time these few days, why don't you spend two days in our village?"

"At least stay here with us today and have dinner before leaving..."

Su Yuntao waved his hand. He really had this idea before. He thought he could stay here for a few more days. But after awakening the martial spirit of the last child, Su Yuntao thought a lot on the way back.

That child must have realized that he possessed a martial soul, but he just had no way to remove the seal, otherwise he would not have been trapped for so long... If that child insisted on removing the seal, and I, as a soul guide, still stayed in this village and did not leave.

Then no matter what happens to this child later, it has something to do with me... Although the food in this place is indeed delicious, I don't need to miss this meal. It is better to leave now to avoid getting into trouble.

As for Lu Yu, Su Yuntao looked at him with a somewhat conflicted expression - to be honest, this kid has some vision. Judging from his current state, he is doing well in the Soul Master School, and his soul power cultivation is improving so fast, which shows that he has great potential in the future.
