"You want to trade my merits with me?" Fang Yuan laughed.
This guy actually had his eye on her?
I'm really worried she won't be able to bring herself to eliminate it!
Is it fair to say that he met his end in a righteous way?
The python spirit, unaware of Fang Yuan's thoughts, was filled with excitement upon hearing his answer:
“That’s right. If you’re willing to trade merit with me, I can break the contract between that kid and me.”
It thought that if it could truly obtain the merits from Fang Yuan, it might be able to offset its karmic debts and avoid being struck by lightning, thus successfully transforming into human form.
Who knows, it might actually cultivate into a snake immortal!
"Oh, I see... Then wait a moment while I get rid of the people involved!"
Fang Yuan responded with another sentence, and the python spirit repeatedly praised it.
Fang Yuan forced a smile and turned to look at Fu Zhuoyun:
"Mr. Fu, could you please take everyone else and move back a bit? I have something to discuss with that person, so it's not convenient for you to be here."
She's going to go all out; these people are likely to get accidentally injured here.
"Huh? Master, are you going to trade with it too?" Fu Zhuoyun looked at Fang Yuan in confusion.
He had no idea what Fang Yuan was planning to do.
But he didn't want to drag the master down with him while he was still dealing with his own problems...
"It's alright, it wants to talk to me alone. It's inconvenient with so many of you. Please move to the back!" Fang Yuan said gently again.
She was doing it all for the good of these people, afraid that if she fought with this guy later, innocent people would get hurt.
Besides, having too many people around would affect her performance, so how could she deal with that guy?
This guy is so arrogant that if he wants her merits, she'll dare to take his life.
"Alright, we'll step aside for now. Master, please call us anytime you need anything!" Fu Zhuoyun nodded, noticing Fang Yuan's impatient look.
He had already sensed the murderous intent beneath Fang Yuan's smile.
Although he didn't know what Fang Yuan wanted to talk to that guy about, he was very satisfied with her murderous aura.
He'd only feel at ease if he killed this sentient being; he was afraid it would renege on the deal if he just made a transaction.
After seeing these people retreat, Fang Yuan took a few steps forward to the box of gold, laid it flat, and sat down on it as if he wanted to have a conversation.
"Alright, there are no outsiders here now. Come out. Even if we're going to make a deal, we have to do it face to face, right?"
The creature inside didn't reply, but it quickly emerged from behind the statue.
A snake with a body as thick as a water bucket coiled around the stone statue, and a snake head larger than a basketball peered down from the top of the statue, looking down at her.
In comparison, Fang Yuan's seemingly weak appearance sitting on the box gave the python spirit a slight sense of swell-up.
It flicked its long forked tongue at Fang Yuan, followed by a chilling voice that entered Fang Yuan's mind:
"You're willing to make a deal with me?"
Although the voice was still cold and strange, Fang Yuan could hear the joy in its tone.
"A trade isn't out of the question, but..."
As Fang Yuan spoke, he put away the thunder talisman he had just dripped blood to bind to his master, and then slowly stood up.
"But what?" the snake spirit asked urgently.
"However... you'll have to get struck by lightning a few times first!"
Before he could finish speaking, Fang Yuan sprang up quickly, a magical alloy sword suddenly appearing in his hand, and aimed straight at the snake's vital spot.
"Sizzle~"
The magic sword swiftly and accurately pierced through the snake's body, going straight through it.
"Hiss~"
"Ah~ You're despicable~!"
The python was severely injured and immediately tried to run back into its burrow.
"Trying to run away? Did you even ask me?"
Using the momentum, Fang Yuan jumped directly to the entrance of its hole, blocking its path.
He produced another lightning-struck wooden sword and swung it at the snake's eyes.
Ah~~
A scream echoed around them, startling Fang Yuan.
This thing can actually talk?
Then they definitely shouldn't be kept.
Then, he took over and jumped high again, stepping on her snake's head and pulling the snake off the statue.
While using immense force to suppress its body, they quickly dragged it outside like a dead dog.
"Let me go, please let me go..."
It felt the immense force from the surrounding area, as well as the energy that was constantly eroding its body.
The python demon immediately begged for mercy.
This time, the voice was transmitted through mental energy.
This guy's true form hasn't transformed into a human; at most, his true form can only scream, and his thoughts can only be conveyed through mental power.
It hadn't expected Fang Yuan's sword to be so powerful; it didn't want to die!
"I told you, if you survive a few lightning strikes, I'll trade places with you. I wasn't lying!"
After Fang Yuan finished speaking, he used his strength again to throw the giant python, which weighed nearly several hundred kilograms, onto a tree trunk.
With a loud bang, the python's body slammed into the tree trunk, followed by another scream.
The guy shook his head, trying to shake off the longsword and escape.
Fang Yuan quickly flipped his hand, and the Thunder Talisman reappeared in his hand.
She raised the Nine Heavens Thunder God Talisman towards the sky and pointed it.
Suddenly, dark clouds gathered in the previously gloomy sky, and then a bolt of lightning struck down from the sky in the direction Fang Yuan was pointing.
"Sizzle~"
Thunder Dragon relentlessly chased and darted back and forth at the giant python, relentlessly pursuing it.
The giant python, which had originally tried to escape, was instantly chopped into charred remains, beyond any hope of survival.
"snort!"
You want my good deeds? Too bad you're not destined to enjoy them.
Fu Zhuoyun and the others, who were hiding nearby, were dumbfounded at what they saw.
"Did the master just summon lightning?"
"It seems so, it's a Thunder Dragon..."
"This... Master, you've been far too modest before regarding your abilities..."
This isn't just an ordinary person who can see things; this is practically a god!
They just dragged that huge python out and threw it out.
The Thunder Dragon was so magical that anyone who hadn't seen it with their own eyes would have thought it was a special effect.
Fu Zhuoyun and his bodyguards were also shocked.
There really are such extraordinary people around them? This is astonishing!
...
Fang Yuan had no idea what these people were thinking; she simply unleashed a bolt of lightning and charred the thing to ashes.
After confirming that the giant python was completely dead, she stepped forward, pulled the magic sword from its body, and then carefully examined it.
Unfortunately, the enormous snake's body was almost completely charred, and its gallbladder and skin were unusable.
She then cut open its head and body, but still couldn't find the inner core.
"You've cultivated for hundreds of years and this is all you've got? You're utterly useless!"
Despite her dissatisfaction at having gained nothing, she could only sheathe her magic sword.
He continued to hold the peach wood sword in his hand and walked back to the cave.
She circled the cave entrance once more, using her mental power to store all the treasures inside the cave into the spatial pavilion.
This python, which has become a spirit, knows how to find hidden treasures. It spends all day lying on a pile of gold bricks, rubbing its skin.
Besides the gold bricks it had laid out on the ground, there were also more than ten boxes of good stuff in its nest.
Since it doesn't have anything particularly good, let's just accept these things. At least it won't be a wasted trip, right?
These things didn't seem like much in the cave, but when put into the space, they almost filled up the small pavilion she had.
After destroying the guy's lair, she turned back to the statue and stood the box of gold upright again, ready to drag it back.
