Xiaoling suddenly felt like a large boulder had been lifted from her chest. She stood up joyfully.
"It's decided, then!" She exclaimed in joy, "Ru will bless Hai, and you all will reincarnate!" She clapped her hands out of excitement.
Although she was happy, the disciples were all a bit troubled. Her happiness subsided quickly as she noticed their perplexed expressions.
"What's wrong?" Xiaoling asked.
Qiang instantly spoke up, "Why do we have to reincarnate anyway? This is not the first time we're seeing the Shihong Ceremony, so why?"
It was a valid question. Both Ru and Qiang had gone through years of the Shihong Ceremony. It occurred every five years anyway. They were most familiar with it and knew how to look after themselves. Sure, Hai could reincarnate right away since it was dangerous for him. But Qiang couldn't see why she and Ru had to reincarnate.
