Chapter 111 This is truly a beautiful misunderstanding
Just now, Su Luo noticed that only she and Ning Wanshuang reacted to the name Chu Wenqing mentioned, and only modern people knew what that bizarre name represented. To test Ning Wanshuang, Su Luo deliberately transmitted her voice to Chu Wenqing, instructing him to guide Ning Wanshuang to say more while covering up her lie.
Chu Wenqing had no choice but to do it with a bitter face.
As expected, the fish took the bait. And just as Su Luo had guessed, this Ning Wanshuang was a transmigrator like them, not the original female lead.
They even replaced the female lead's core! Was that scoundrel Tiandao really just trying to save the world?
but……
Su Luo raised her eyes and looked at Ning Wanshuang, who was clinging to Gu Changhuai like a butterfly not far away. The corners of her mouth turned down slightly.
It's no wonder she overthinks things. Can a lovestruck, infatuated female lead really save the world?
Just then, Feng Xiyue pointed at Su Luo and reminded her, "It's getting late, let's leave here quickly."
Su Luo nodded.
It's time to leave; time in the secret realm is precious.
This Cloud Realm only has half a month of training time, but there are five major areas to explore. If you want to explore them all, it will take about three days to complete one area.
They found nothing on the first day, but had a fruitful second day. Now they'll continue on their journey, looking for anything else useful. Ideally, they'll find a teleportation array to reach the next area before the night of the third day!
Thinking of this, Su Luo transmitted her voice to Chu Wenqing.
"You go ahead and wait for us about a kilometer ahead. Don't wander off."
Chu Wenqing quickly agreed.
He had wanted to run away for a long time! Now he only wanted to leave this place as soon as possible, wash off the herbal juice, and return to being the elegant and handsome Chu Wenqing he used to be!
Thinking of this, Chu Wenqing couldn't wait any longer. He said to everyone, "Farewell, I feel something calling me from afar," and then, without waiting for Gu Changhuai and the others to stop him, he slipped away as fast as he could.
The speed, the urgency—if you didn't know better, you'd think there was a ghost chasing them...
Gu Changhuai watched his departing figure and sighed, "After this parting, I don't know when I will see Fellow Daoist Shen again."
Du Nianfu said, "Senior brother, there's no need to worry. We'll meet again if fate allows. I will never forget Shen Jing... Fellow Daoist Shen's kindness."
"Yes, this Fellow Daoist Shen saved my junior sister without asking for anything in return. He even left so decisively so that we wouldn't have to be grateful to him anymore. Such integrity is truly admirable." As he spoke, Bai Xun showed an expression of respect.
Gu Changhuai looked at the group behind him and instructed, "If you encounter Fellow Daoist Shen on the journey ahead, you must do your utmost to help him. If you don't, after you leave, you must truthfully report to your sect and spread his deeds far and wide!"
The disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect behind him nodded in agreement.
The three people who overheard this conversation immediately had indescribable expressions on their faces.
Hmm, what a wonderful misunderstanding...
Judging that Chu Wenqing had run far away, Su Luo got up. Feng Xiyue said goodbye to Song Qiao and the Wanjian Sect disciples and was about to leave.
Gu Changhuai suddenly spoke up, calling out to them, "Wait a minute."
Feng Xiyue turned around. "What is it?"
Gu Changhuai coughed, somewhat awkwardly, and said, "We are seriously injured, and our spiritual energy is almost depleted. We're afraid we won't be able to recover for a while. I wonder if Fellow Daoist Feng has any healing pills? We'd like to exchange some..."
By the end, Gu Changhuai felt his face burning.
As the pride of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, Gu Changhuai had never asked anyone for help in his entire life! But now, due to the special circumstances, he had no choice but to lower his head and beg for help.
It was only the second day, and almost all of them were injured. The journey ahead was fraught with danger. In order to help everyone recover as soon as possible, and for the safety of his junior brothers and sisters, he had no choice but to bow his head and ask Feng Xiyue, a pill cultivator, for help.
Ning Wanshuang, who was standing to the side, gently bit her lower lip and did not interrupt.
She did have some talismans and pills given to her by her senior brothers in her storage bag, but it was only enough for her and Senior Brother Gu; it definitely wouldn't be enough for the others. She couldn't help with this...
If only her senior brothers hadn't gotten separated from her!
Feng Xiyue was unaware of Gu Changhuai's concerns and simply asked, "Oh? What do you want to exchange for it?"
"Spirit Stone."
"Sure, one bottle of Healing Pill costs fifty mid-grade spirit stones."
Gu Changhuai agreed without hesitation.
Fortunately, fifty mid-grade spirit stones for a bottle of pills wasn't too expensive, and it was within his budget.
After the two discussed it, Feng Xiyue readily took out four bottles of healing pills and exchanged them with Gu Changhuai before waving goodbye.
"Then let's go."
"Wait a moment."
This time, Bai Xun called out to Feng Xiyue. He glanced at Su Luo without making a sound, then looked at Feng Xiyue.
"Fellow Daoist Feng, I have some questions I'd like to ask."
Feng Xiyue noticed the eagerness in Bai Xun's eyes and frowned, asking, "What is it now?"
"Fellow Daoist Feng, the talismans you used on the giant lizard beast were quite effective. Could you tell us where those talismans came from? We would like to buy some."
Logically speaking, sword cultivators shouldn't know anything about talismans, but Bai Xun's situation is somewhat special. When he was young, his elders were talisman cultivators, so he was forced by them to learn talismans for a while. Later, because he had no interest or talent in talismans, he switched to becoming a sword cultivator.
Therefore, having some knowledge of talismans, he immediately recognized that Feng Xiyue and the others had just used Ice Talismans and Thunder Talismans. Those were mid-to-high-grade talismans, not only incredibly effective but also worth a fortune!
The Lingxiao Sect is so poor, they couldn't possibly afford such high-level talismans! So it's very likely that they know some talisman cultivator, and those two talismans were given to them by that person.
Although it's unlikely, they only have one unfamiliar female cultivator with them right now. Could this young woman be a very powerful talisman cultivator? And she even gave talismans to Feng Xiyue and the others?
In reality, Bai Xun learned the truth. However, he was destined to be disappointed.
Su Luo keenly sensed Bai Xun's gaze on her, silently lowered her eyelashes, and made no response.
Feng Xiyue immediately replied, "Our talismans were given to us by the Grand Elder."
Song Qiao nodded in agreement, "Yes, yes."
Back when Su Luo gave them the talismans, she had said that they must never let the Wan Jian Sect know that she had drawn them. They all understood the principle that "a common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime." The people of small sects couldn't do anything to Su Luo, but it would be a different story if disciples of large sects intervened.
So, they had no choice but to let their dear Grand Elder take the blame.
In the distant Lingxiao Sect, the Grand Elder, who was cultivating, suddenly felt a chill run through his body for some unknown reason.
Bai Xun then remembered that the Grand Elder of the Lingxiao Sect was a rare practitioner of both talisman and sword techniques. If it was he who gave it to him, then it would indeed be understandable!
He was immediately dejected. "You don't have a single one left?"
Feng Xiyue rolled her eyes. "Do you think high-level talismans are like paper, something you can have as many as you want? The Grand Elder only gave us one, and we just used up the only one we had."
Actually, Feng Xiyue felt a little guilty saying this.
Who could blame her when she actually had a whole sack of talismans in her storage bag? They were practically as good as paper.
Song Qiao was not good at lying, so he simply lowered his head, trying his best not to let others see his guilty look.
To the people of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, his appearance clearly showed that he was heartbroken because he was too distressed about the talisman!
Now, the people of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect felt a little uneasy.
They used to think the Lingxiao Sect members were stingy and strange, and disliked them greatly. But now, the Lingxiao Sect disciples were willing to use their most precious talismans to save them! They had misunderstood these kind people before!
After they return, they must tell the sect and their masters about Lingxiao Sect's righteous act and clear up everyone's misunderstanding of Lingxiao Sect!
Feng Xiyue had no idea that the people of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect were so good at making up stories. Afraid that she would be exposed if she stayed any longer, she simply grabbed one of them with each hand and turned to leave.
The members of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect remained behind, taking pills to heal their injuries while remarking that the people of the Lingxiao Sect were quite kind.
