Tu Longjian pondered that he couldn't tell her about the terrible thing of plundering luck, so he decided to fabricate a story about a scumbag, which would also lead to the same result.
Since Gan Xiuming had already betrayed the original owner's infatuation, it couldn't be considered deceiving Shi Zixue.
So she angrily said to Shi Zixue, "Actually, I did it to get revenge on that heartless man!"
“Gan Xiuming made a solemn vow to me, but he changed his mind and started flirting with other women.”
"I pretended to be obsequious, but in reality, I was waiting for an opportunity to take revenge. I didn't want to see him thrive, so I absolutely couldn't let him be number one."
Shi Zixue nodded as if she understood, "I don't understand, but I do understand."
She knew nothing about love, but she had been bullied and betrayed by her own people, so she knew the desire for revenge.
"That's it. Are you willing? I'll do everything I can to help you get Gan Xiuming off the leaderboard."
Tu Longjian looked at Shi Zixue's expression, his heart filled with anticipation.
If Shi Zixue was unwilling, she would have to find other methods, such as finding another new student to cooperate with, or secretly sabotaging Gan Xiuming's efforts to obtain points.
"Okay!" Shi Zixue didn't think too much and decisively boarded her pirate ship.
Tu Longjian took out a locked box containing a cell phone set to automatically connect. Because it had been brought to this alternate dimension, it was transparent.
She had prepared a communicator on her way there so she could contact her collaborators.
"Ahem, there's a treasure inside. Through it, I can contact you."
"Their plan is to hunt down the Bloodhand Purple Iron Lizard. I'll stay in the group and try to disrupt their actions."
"Wait until they are both exhausted before you strike the final blow and take the lion's share of the points."
"Also, there's a magical treasure under the Bloodhand Purple Iron Lizard's belly. Secretly steal it too, and make sure Gan Xiuming doesn't get it."
After giving him some careful instructions, Tu Longjian returned to the maple forest.
Gan Xiuming and his group were getting ready to set off, tidying up their belongings and ritual implements.
"Under the command of Fellow Daoist Gan and Fellow Daoist Peng, we will surely succeed in hunting down the Bloodhand Purple Iron Lizard."
"Yes, Fellow Daoist Gan is a genius with a mutated Heavenly Spiritual Root."
"Although Fellow Daoist Peng is not an extremely rare variant of spiritual root, he is still a wind spiritual root, known for his speed."
"Not to mention that she is the daughter of an elder, and she has countless rare and precious treasures and magical artifacts in her possession."
"With two big shots leading the way, this journey should be safe."
"Yeah, yeah, I'm not strong enough, but luckily I ran into them. Participating in this operation can also earn me some points."
"I think the same way. Even though we can't make it into the top ten of the freshman points ranking, we can still get some benefits by sticking with the big shots."
The dozen or so monks following Gan Xiuming and Peng Nana discussed the central figure, rubbing their hands together in anticipation, clearly very confident about this operation.
Barring any unforeseen circumstances, after Gan Xiuming rescued them, these people would become Gan Xiuming's underlings and be extremely grateful to him.
The group chatted and laughed, while Tu Longjian obediently followed behind at the back of the line.
The bleak autumn wind rustled through the fallen leaves.
If you listen carefully, you can hear subtle, rhythmic sounds within them.
"Shh, I heard you," a male cultivator familiar with the biological characteristics of the creature whispered in the group.
The cultivators were filled with excitement. They moved slowly and quietly, careful not to disturb their prey, and prepared to pounce.
The Bloodhand Purple Iron Lizard was covered in purplish-black scales, but its limbs and tail tips were a deep red like pigeon blood. It was cautiously crawling forward.
As a qualified mole, of course I have to sabotage the hunting operation. I just took some spirit rice from Shi Zixue. As long as I make the birds flutter, I can alert the lizard and make Long Aotian fail at the last minute.
So Tu Longjian condensed his spiritual energy into a thread, strung together grains of spiritual rice, and gently sent it to the open space behind everyone.
The moment the spirit rice touched the ground, the spiritual energy lines shattered and vanished without a trace.
The scattered rice on the ground attracted some birds, which fluttered their wings and flew over to peck at it.
Hearing the noise, the Bloodhand Purple Iron Lizard looked back and saw more than a dozen cultivators following behind it.
Startled, it scrambled forward, its black scales reflecting a purple sheen, and the afterimages of its blood-red limbs dancing like a streak of blood.
Enraged, the group didn't bother to investigate the reason and instead used their unique abilities to follow the Blood-Handed Purple Iron Lizard as it fled.
"Take this, Plum Blossom Palm!"
"Swift Serpent Sword, draw!"
It seems that the cultivators have also gained a lot from the illusion, with low-level cultivation techniques and magical artifacts appearing one after another.
Several attacks were aimed at the Bloodhand Purple Iron Lizard, which nimbly dodged left and right on the yellowish-brown ground.
Peng Nana, relying on her wind spirit root, was agile and ran in the lead.
However, her attack methods were a bit weak, and they didn't hurt the Bloodhand Purple Iron Lizard at all. She even saw the contempt in the beast's eyes.
Peng Nana gritted her teeth, took out the Rainbow Silk and wrapped it around Gan Xiuming's waist, then quickly pulled him forward.
"Fellow Daoist Gan, help me kill this monster!"
The treasure shone brightly, and the rainbow silk shimmered with an unusual brilliance. It was clearly not an ordinary object; it was at least a spiritual artifact.
It was actually a spiritual treasure that greatly enhanced speed. No wonder she was the daughter of an elder; she possessed a spiritual treasure that matched her own attributes even during the Qi Refining stage.
As expected, the harem-type protagonist not only has a childhood sweetheart by his side, but also receives the favor of the elder's beloved daughter.
Gan Xiuming looked at the Spirit Treasure Rainbow Silk, his eyes shining brightly, his captivating gaze fixed on Peng Nana, "Good!"
Gan Xiuming offered up a golden bead, which was inlaid on the Xuan Sword. It then unleashed golden spiritual energy and slashed fiercely at the Blood Hand Purple Iron Lizard.
This golden bead is radiant with golden light; it must be the Golden Soul Bead.
Tu Longjian trailed behind, hands folded, observing coldly.
The Golden Soul Pearl is a metal-type auxiliary spiritual artifact, which is very compatible with Gan Xiuming's spiritual root attribute.
The Heavenly Spiritual Root is a variant of the Heavenly Metal Spiritual Root, so metal-type weapons are quite useful to him.
Although it is not as high-level as the Wind and Rainbow Silk, it is still a magic weapon used by Foundation Establishment cultivators.
Gan Xiuming's attack landed heavily on the Bloodhand Purple Iron Lizard's back. As if struck by a heavy blow, the dark purple scales on its back curled up, revealing bright red flesh, and it convulsed in pain.
It looked at Gan Xiuming with resentment in its eyes, a hint of conspiracy flashing in its gaze.
It rapidly absorbed the elemental power of the fiery red ground, its body instantly expanding several times in size, before viciously attacking.
With a frantic tail whip, several weak cultivators were knocked to the ground.
The Bloodhand Purple Iron Lizard raised its swollen, blood-red forepaws, and its large, fan-like paws slammed Gan Xiuming and Peng Nana, who were at the front, to the ground, leaving them with torn flesh.
"Ah!" Poonana cried out in pain.
Because of his strong metal element, Gan Xiuming was able to protect his body with metal spiritual energy, which greatly reduced his injuries. He only let out a muffled groan.
The cultivators attacked from both sides, putting up a difficult resistance.
Gan Xiuming helped Peng Nana back to the edge of the battlefield to take temporary shelter, and then called Fang Milu to treat Peng Nana.
