After being reborn, the cannon fodder junior sister quickly left the sect.

Chapter 114 Thunderclap Sword Technique

Chu Wenqing was an excellent storyteller, and the three listened with great interest, while also maintaining their pace. They continued their journey while listening to the story, and soon reached the center of the valley.

Everywhere here are ancient trees that are thousands or tens of thousands of years old. The roots of these ancient trees are intertwined, and their canopies are layered like a sea of ​​clouds, blocking out the sun. As a result, almost no sunlight can penetrate the valley, making it appear dark and secluded.

This kind of place is most suitable for various poisonous creatures to live in, so poisonous insects, spiders or snakes often crawl across the ground or trees.

The group carried protective talismans, so the poisonous creatures usually wouldn't even glance at them. Occasionally, a few with bad tempers would try to provoke them, but they were always dealt with by Su Luo and the other two working together. Then, Chu Wenqing was allowed to continue speaking.

Just kidding, the story is getting really exciting right now, how can it be disturbed?

During this time, Su Luo also took out a bag of homemade crispy broad beans from her storage bag and gave Feng Xiyue and Song Qiao a large portion of each. They munched on the broad beans while listening to the story, thoroughly enjoying themselves.

This was the first time Feng Xiyue and Song Qiao had ever eaten broad beans. One bite and they were so crunchy and fragrant that they couldn't stop eating them.

She licked her lips. "These crispy broad beans are perfect with alcohol. Master will probably love them."

Song Qiao nodded repeatedly, "Indeed."

When he was young, Sect Leader Wen loved to enjoy wine, but unfortunately, the sect became too poor, so he could only occasionally have a drink with the Grand Elder. This time, Chu Wenqing and Feng Xiyue bought Sect Leader Wen several jars of fine wine, which made him extremely happy.

Thinking of this, Feng Xiyue decided that she must ask Su Luo how to make the crispy broad beans when she had the chance, and then make some for her master to try.

She wouldn't leave any of these for her master; she wouldn't even have enough for herself. Mmm, delicious, so fragrant!

Seeing how much Feng Xiyue and Chu Wenqing enjoyed their meal, Chu Wenqing immediately stopped and declared righteously, "I want some too!"

"I know, I know, you won't be left out."

Su Luo grabbed a handful for herself and handed the remaining half bag to Chu Wenqing. He quickly threw the broad beans into his mouth, chewed them, and squinted his eyes happily.

"So delicious, this is exactly the taste! I can't believe how long it's been since I've had a snack like this!"

"Spiritual stone?"

Feng Xiyue looked at the broad beans in her hand, unable to connect them with spirit stones. "Can you eat spirit stones?"

Chu Wenqing immediately realized her misunderstanding and quickly explained, "Senior sister, it's not the kind that uses spirit stones, but 'zero' for snacks, like the 'food' in 'zero-cost food.' It means snack food, a kind of dessert. Um, that's what people in my hometown say, I'm just used to saying it that way. Haha..."

After saying that, he laughed, looking slightly guilty.

Su Luo's lips twitched as she watched, prompting him to speak without restraint.

"I see."

Feng Xiyue had only asked casually, and nodded upon hearing this, not caring at all. She was only concerned with the story, "Go on, what happened next?"

Chu Wenqing popped a broad bean into his mouth. "Later, those people didn't get very far before they were discovered, which angered the Hidden Yin Serpent, which chased after them. You have no idea how bizarre the Hidden Yin Serpent looks!"

He paused for a moment to recall the events, then continued, "That Hidden Shadow Serpent had a human head with a charming face, but its body below the head was covered in crimson scales. It also had four strong limbs that allowed it to crawl on the ground! My goodness, you wouldn't believe it, the moment I saw it emerge, I got goosebumps all over!"

Chu Wenqing shuddered. "This is too bizarre, absolutely too bizarre!"

Xun Ge'er wasn't lying; there really are beautiful snake-like women who look like that! Seeing it with my own eyes was truly shocking!

Upon hearing Chu Wenqing's description, Su Luo and the other two couldn't help but imagine it for a moment, and then they all shuddered.

That's really too weird...

Su Luo then asked, "And then?"

"Then of course I took action. I couldn't just stand by and watch it harm people, could I? Originally, the Hidden Yin Serpent planned to capture those people and then settle accounts with me, but I used the talisman you gave me to ambush it. Taking advantage of its injury, I drew my sword and attacked, managing to hold it off for quite a while. In the end, those people managed to escape. The Hidden Yin Serpent was badly injured and couldn't catch me for a while, so it went berserk, constantly threatening to eat me. In desperation, I put several itching talismans on myself!"

Chu Wenqing smiled smugly, "It gets so itchy all over as soon as it touches me, it rolls around on the ground itchy, and in the end it was too scared to touch me anymore and ran away in a panic. Hehe, am I smart?"

“No wonder…” Song Qiao muttered to himself.

Feng Xiyue didn't hear her clearly at first, "No wonder what?"

Song Qiao rarely spoke in long sentences, and stammered for a moment, "It's...it's that giant lizard beast that my senior brother just hit, it...it was lying on the ground, rolling around, right? It must have touched the tickling talisman, so...that's why it was like that..."

After Song Qiao's reminder, Feng Xiyue suddenly realized, "Yes, that's right, it was just a lucky accident."

I never expected the itching talisman Su Luo gave me to be so powerful! Once stuck on a person, any demon beast that touches it will be so itchy that it will roll around on the ground, and it won't dare to touch anyone at all!

Su Luo thought the same thing, raised an eyebrow and smiled, praising, "Well done. If you can't beat them, run; if you can't run, make them afraid to touch you. That way, you can escape unscathed even from the hands of powerful people or demonic beasts. Chu Wenqing, you've got it!"

Why didn't she think of this method before? Is her thinking too rigid? She should open her mind like Chu Wenqing!

"That's right. My head is full of all sorts of ingenious ideas. If I want to, what can't I come up with?" Chu Wenqing pointed to his head, so proud that he almost lost his bearings, and even started to brag.

Seeing that he was getting carried away, Su Luo jokingly poured cold water on him, "Really? Then how did you suddenly fall from the sky?"

Chu Wenqing: ...

"Ok?"

Chu Wenqing deflated, his lips moved slightly, but his voice was so soft it was almost inaudible, "On the way back, I accidentally offended a bird-like demon beast, and it threw me down..."

Three people: ...

Goodness, they considered other reasons, but never thought that he was dropped by a bird!

Before Su Luo and the others could say anything, Chu Wenqing rallied his spirits, "Let's not talk about that! Oh, right! When that monster was running away, it accidentally dropped something. I picked it up and looked at it, and wow! Guess what it was?"

At this point, Chu Wenqing suddenly revealed a mysterious expression.

Feng Xiyue blinked: "Could it be some kind of precious spiritual plant?"

"wrong."

Song Qiao: "Perhaps it's some kind of treasure..."

"Not at all."

Su Luo clearly saw the excitement in Chu Wenqing's eyes, raised an eyebrow, and jokingly guessed, "Could it be some kind of precious sword or sword manual?"

"That's right! It's a sword manual!"

Chu Wenqing snapped his fingers and quickly produced a sword manual. The group immediately surrounded him, and their eyes widened when they saw the manual.

The sword manual looked very ancient, but the words "Thunderclap Sword Technique" were prominently displayed on it.

"It's...it's the Thunderclap Sword Technique!"

Song Qiao was so shocked that he barely stammered, “That…that is a sword technique created by the Zhenren Sword Master more than a thousand years ago! His sword technique is extremely fast and terrifyingly powerful, almost comparable to a lightning flash!”

"You're lucky, kid!"

Feng Xiyue excitedly slapped Chu Wenqing hard, "I heard that the Sword Lord perished after failing to transcend the tribulation of the Nascent Soul stage, and his sword techniques disappeared without a trace. I never expected that they would end up in the hands of a demon beast in the Cloud Realm! And now, you've even found them!"

Chu Wenqing stood tall and proud, extremely pleased with himself. "I knew it! Doing good deeds will definitely bring good fortune! Hehehe~"

Chu Wenqing was a sword cultivator, and besides food and spirit stones, his favorite things were his swords. Sword cultivators not only loved swords but also loved buying all sorts of sword manuals, but he had been too poor before, and apart from the manuals given to him by his sect, he had never bought any other sword manuals. Unexpectedly, he had now found a sword manual that would make any sword cultivator in the world envious!

He made a fortune on this trip to the Cloud Realm!
