n170 Hand It Over, The Spiritual Sword Chooses Its Owner (2)

nSong Shi smiled. Since this woman was shameless enough to pluck his tea leaves, he would shamelessly use her as free labor.

n“What do you mean by picking tea leaves for you? This is mine!”

nLu Youyou hurriedly waved her hand, wanting to put away the tea leaves.

n“What’s yours? Give it to me!”

nSong Shi grabbed Lu Youyou’s hand and threw it out without caring that she was a girl and weaker than him. Then, he put the jade basins filled with tea leaves on the ground into his storage ring.

nLu Youyou landed one hundred feet away in a sorry state. When she saw that Song Shi actually took the fruits of her labor, she was so angry that she trembled. “You… you’re too shameless. The tea leaves are mine!”

nShe had deliberately placed the tea leaves she had picked here just to anger Song Shi. Who would have thought that she would be beaten up and taken advantage of?

n“When is it yours? Don’t you know that this tea tree is a reward from your father to me?”

nSong Shi’s expression was calm as he put away the ancient tea tree.

nLu Youyou pointed at Song Shi and flew into a rage. “You said you gave it to me. How can you go back on your word, what kind of man are you?!”

n“I said I gave it to you? I only asked you to pluck all the leaves you want. You misunderstood me words yourself. How is that my fault?”

nSong Shi smiled with his hands behind his back. “Thank you for picking the tea leaves for me. I’ll stir-fry the tea now and make a cup of tea. You can stand here to admire the fragrance of the tea.”

nPure Yang True Fire appeared in his palm. Then, he took out a portion of tea leaves and began to stir-fry them.

nImmediately, the Will-O-Wisp of the tea leaves bloomed. Song Shi hurriedly shot out runes to seal the essence inside to prevent it from being lost.

nA wave of fragrance spread out, refreshing one’s heart.

nThe more Lu Youyou looked at it, the angrier she became. She rushed over and wanted to snatch the tea leaves.

nWith a bang, Song Shi sent her flying with a punch. This gave Lu Youyou a black eye which made her look like a panda.

n“You… How dare you embarrass me!”

nLu Youyou’s face was covered in dirt as she glared at Song Shi in shame and anger. It was one thing for this person to hit her previously, as only Grandpa Nightmare had seen it. Now that the entire sect and even other sects had seen her getting beat up, how could she face others in the future?

n“What does it have to do with me? If you want to snatch my things, that’s what I’ll do. It doesn’t matter who you are!”

nSong Shi said coldly. He took out some of the stir-fried tea leaves and threw them into a cup. Then, he boiled water and began to make tea.

nSuch was the benefit of cultivation. All kinds of miscellaneous things could be placed in storage bags or storage rings. It was also very convenient to start a fire anywhere he wanted.

nWhen the people around them saw Song Shi’s relaxed expression and Lu Youyou’s panda eyes, their hearts skipped a beat.

nLu Jiu, who was studying the Array Formation in front of him, turned around and frowned slightly, “Youyou, come here.”

n“Dad, look!”

nLu Youyou pointed at her bruised eyes. “You’ve never even hit me like this!”

nThe corner of Lu Jiu’s mouth twitched. He was indeed a little angry, “Why do you have to be so mean to a woman? Elder Blood Robes?”

n“If she didn’t mess with me. Nothing would have happened.”

nSong Shi replied indifferently and poured the hot water into the cup. Immediately, the fragrance of tea filled the air. A faint white light spilled out from it. There were actually runes jumping around, vaguely wanting to combine together as if an article was being written.

n“This is really something.”

nHis gaze was attracted by the phenomenon in front of him and he stopped paying attention to Lu Youyou.

n“Father, look at his attitude. Does he even take you, the sect master, seriously?”

nLu Youyou continued to fan the flames.

n“Alright, do you know where this place is? Killing arrays are everywhere and there might be danger at any time. Can’t you be quiet for a while?”

nLu Jiu berated. There were so many people here. How could he side with his daughter when she was obviously in the wrong?

n“Why are you scolding me again? What did I do wrong?”

nLu Youyou was so angry that she cried. “Alright, since I’m just a burden, I won’t disturb you here, okay?”

nWith that, she turned around and ran out, crying.

nSong Shi’s expression did not change.

n“Little girl, I’m not even afraid of death. You think I can’t deal with a pampered young lady like you?”

nSong Shi lowered his head and took a sip of tea. He felt his mind clear up and become active.

n“Even with my high Comprehension, this tea is still effective. Not bad.”

nSong Shi sipped his tea with a satisfied expression.

n“This is how life should be. Tasting tea and drinking wine. Free and unrestrained.”

nSong Shi thought to himself, This is what cultivation should be.

n“Brother Blood Robes, can I have a drink?”

nOld Man Nightmare appeared at the side.

n“Of course.”

nSong Shi hated people like Lu Youyou who purposely looked for trouble, but he did not dislike having casual conversations. He took out a teacup and made a cup for Old Man Nightmare.

nHe looked at the people who continued to break the formation in the distance and asked curiously, “Elder Nightmare, aren’t you going to help?”

nOld Man Nightmare took a sip of tea and his eyes flickered. He sighed. “Good tea!”

nHe answered Song Shi’s question. “I’m mainly in charge of taking care of Miss. It’s fine if I don’t go.”

n“Tsk tsk, someone like her really needs to be taken care of. Otherwise, she would have long been killed outside.”

nSong Shi was disdainful.

nIn his opinion, so what if she was a goddess? With such a personality, she would not be able to live long in the cultivation world and could only rely on her elders to protect her. However, how long can such protection even last?

n“Sigh, I know that Brother Blood Robes is an emotional person as well. I too, hate it when Miss is unruly and willful.”

nOld Man Nightmare sighed, “Actually, Miss wasn’t like this when she was young. When Madam was still around, Miss was very obedient.”

n“Stop. You don’t have to give me a reason. If I don’t like her, I won’t change my mind. I’m not interested in humoring her.”

nSong Shi raised his hand to stop him.

nBut Old Man Nightmare did not stop. “Brother Blood Robes, you still need to know why this happened. Miss’s mother was killed in front of her by the Ye Family when she was seven years old. Furthermore, her tendons and bones were pulled out and she was slowly tortured to death. After that stimulation, Miss’s personality changed drastically and she became extremely temperamental. The Sect Master felt guilty and hence became more indulgent. That’s why Miss is so unruly today.”

n“Oh.”

nSong Shi replied with one word and nothing else.

n“Actually, Miss isn’t a bad person, but…”

n“Alright, there’s no need to speak up for her. There are many people in this world who are suffering and she’s not the only one. I’ll say it again. If she dares to provoke me again, I’ll not hesitate to teach her how to be a person.”

nThe Dharma treasures on Song Shi’s waist, the blood river, released a blood light that drowned him. He said impatiently, “I want to restore Nomological power. I will start cultivating now.”

nHe hid in the blood light and began to cultivate on the spot.

nOld Man Nightmare was left speechless. This Blood-Robed old ghost’s personality was also so domineering. If Miss didn’t restrain herself, she would definitely still suffer.

nHe turned to leave, resigned to his fate, in order not to deepen the conflict.

nOutside, the other sects also broke through the nodes one after another.

nEvery time a node was broken, the miasma that enveloped the basin would fade a little. This was because the overall defensive Array Formation was constantly weakening,hence the difficulty of breaking the array was also decreasing.

nThe light in the entire basin was getting better and better, and everyone’s vision became clearer.

nThe strange thing was that Heavenly Star Perfected Lord, who had found the node, did not attack at all. The people from the Heaven Secret Office too did not care about attacking the node.

nAfter most of the nodes were broken, he said, “The main body of the outer Array Formation has been destroyed. Let’s go.”

nWith a tap of his finger, the light of the node in front of him changed, and an entrance directly appeared. There was no need to forcefully break through the Array Formation.

n“Let’s go. This is the library pavilion area. We should be able to obtain more information about this ruin.”

nHe led the big group into the Array Formation. This Array Formation on the way was extremely ‘obedient’ as if he was the one who created it. There was no obstruction at all, making some people who had worked hard to break their array envious.

n“As expected of the number one Array Formation expert in Great Qian. He entered without much effort.”

n“He used his brains, but we used brute force.”

n“That’s right. Ordinary people are not qualified to study Array Formations.”

nUpon hearing the discussion, Song Shi opened his eyes. Through the much clearer basin space, he saw that the Heaven Secret Office had led them into a library.

n“He rushed here immediately. As expected of someone who specializes in obtaining information. If I can obtain information about the Array Formation from it, it won’t be a problem for me to control array formations in the future too.”

nAs Song Shi thought about it, he suddenly heard a sword cry. In the distance, a Will-O-Wisp soared into the sky.

n“Stop the Spiritual Sword!”

nThe cultivators of the trading company who were collecting the sword in the Sword Tomb were flustered. In the end, they still could not block it. The spiritual sword actually flew towards the Demon Slayers Division and finally stopped in front of a valiant looking woman.

nSong Shi was stunned. This woman was Chen Yiling. The latter was also in a daze.

nIn the next second, the spiritual sword swayed at Chen Yiling as if it was nodding. Then, it fused into her body in a flash, causing the cultivators who were about to chase after the sword to be dumbfounded.

n“Hehe, the Spiritual Sword chooses its master. Looks like everyone has no fate with it.”

nSword Emperor Gale of the Demon Slayers Division laughed. “Yiling, hurry up and thank the seniors.”
