Chapter 154 - Infant Soul

It was clearly a gathering about supernatural events, but it was actually similar to the containers in the hospital's corpse storage room. What the hell was going on?

"What are you looking at?" Just as I was staring at the child in the container, my teacher walked over and asked me curiously.

When I came over, I saw that I had been staring at the contents of the container the whole time. Master was also extremely curious, just what was I looking at?

"Master, isn't this Spiritual Assembly? Why did you soak a child in a container? " Seeing that my master had arrived, I pointed to the container and asked.

In his heart, he always felt that this child was very pitiful. Even after death, he would still be soaked in the container's liquid.

Just looking at it from the outside was something I couldn't bear to do.

"This is the Nascent Soul that other people raise." After hearing my question, the teacher looked in the direction where my finger was pointing and explained to me.

However, I didn't understand anything about Master's words.

Infant spirit, what was a Nascent Soul?

I don't think I've ever heard my master mention it. This is the first time I've ever seen it.

Infant spirits, as the name implies, are the soul of an infant. Some people use improper methods to forcefully throw an infant out of their mother's womb, and this kind of infant, usually only has their own soul in six to seven months, but in the end, before they can even take a look at the world, their life is already taken away with a single glance. Their hearts are filled with intense resentment, and these people have some methods to use the infant's soul for their own purposes, which is similar to nurturing a corpse. Looking at the infant in the container, the master slowly spoke to me word for word.

I couldn't help but glance at the infant in the container when I heard what Master said. I couldn't even tell how it felt in my heart.

The existence of a Nascent Soul is really cruel. I really don't understand why someone would be so heartless as to forcefully take a seven to eight month old child out of her mother's stomach.

It had only indirectly harmed two lives, so how could he bear it?

"Master, isn't everyone in Spiritual Assembly supposed to be good people?" After a long period of silence, I sorrowfully asked my master.

Although I didn't say it out loud, but I believe that Master could understand the meaning behind my words.

I'm asking my master, aren't the people in Spiritual Assembly supposed to have a kind heart?

However … Why did he cruelly make a baby into a baby spirit?

"The existence of a Nascent Soul isn't just man-made, it could also be an accident. The one in the main hall right now is an accident." I understood what I meant, and the master patted me on the shoulder and began to explain.

After hearing my master's words, I turned my head to look at the Infant Soul and stopped talking.

No matter if it was a human or an accident, I couldn't bear to see such a young child turn out to be like this.

"Alright, you don't have to dwell on this issue anymore. All living beings in this world have differences in quality, and this difference in quality isn't limited to just a single domain. You can go and differentiate between them." While I was still lowering my head in silence, Master said this to me with sincerity.

After listening to my master's words, I raised my head to look at my master. I understood the meaning behind those words, but my heart was extremely heavy.

"I know." After a long while, I nodded to Master.

After all, I don't want Master to worry about me all the time.

No matter how unwilling I was in my heart, a child was already like that. There was nothing I could do.

"Alright, I have something to take care of. You can stay in the hall for a while, I'll be back soon." After seeing that I no longer bothered about the matter of the Nascent Soul, Master told me the reason why he was looking for me.

After hearing that Master had some matters to settle, I looked at him and nodded my head, indicating that I understood.

Since there are so many talented people here, I don't have to worry about my life. If Master wants to take care of his own matters, he can just go.

Since I had nothing better to do, I started to wander around the hall.

However … I can't help but sigh. The people who made this hall must be very rich.

I've been hanging around here for a long time, and it turns out — I haven't finished the hall yet.

At this moment, I finally understood that the people who were working here weren't short of money at all.

But thinking of others. When I think about my master, I feel that why does my master seem so poor when compared to his peers?

It wasn't that I was looking down on my master, but that I was especially puzzled.

We are all of the same generation, how can the gap between us be so huge?

"Sigh …" As I thought of this, I couldn't help but sigh.

If something were to really happen at home and he wanted to invite this industry to go and settle it, then … The reward was definitely not small either.

Therefore, this business must be very profitable.

However, my master is different. He was born with a warm heart. Even if someone else's family were to be in trouble, my master would only accept a small portion of the reward.

If I were to meet a slightly more pitiful family, not only would my master not accept a single bit of payment, he would even pour some into them.

If we count it this way, I can understand why there is such a huge gap between the two of us.

Just when I was sighing in my heart, a black shadow flashed past me once again.

I jerked my head up, but there was nothing there.

But this time, I didn't think I was seeing things, or hallucinating.

The same thing happened once, so it could be said that he was hallucinating, but the second time, he couldn't use hallucinations to explain himself, right?

What's more … The black shadow just now flashed past my eyes.

This time, I felt it very clearly. There must be a shadow flashing by.

He couldn't help but frown deeply.

I clearly felt it, but why did I raise my head? Yet he could not see anything?

Furthermore … There were so many capable people here. Which one of them would choose to come here at this time, even if their life depended on it?

Thinking about it this way, I was especially puzzled.
