Xi Zhen ultimately signed the 'unequal treaty' before him.
To vent his anger, he threw the calligraphy brush in his hand onto the ground after signing the document.
Seeing this, Sheng Ning bent down to pick it up and smiled at him, "This is a magic weapon that my fifth senior brother specially drew for me and refined for me."
"The materials used are not expensive, but my fifth senior brother's kindness to me is worth a fortune, and I have known Fellow Daoist Xi for so long."
"How about this, I'll give you a discount, consider it a friend's price, five hundred high-grade spirit stones, how about that?"
God's holy crap, it's a discount, a friend's price!
Xi Zhen was so angry he wanted to grind his back teeth to powder.
But he couldn't lay a hand on her right now.
Now is the time to escape the demon realm. If things go wrong now, it's uncertain whether they'll be able to get out next time.
Xi Zhen took several deep breaths, suppressing his anger, and said in a hoarse voice, "We'll talk about it after we get outside!"
Sheng Ning was not in a hurry to demand compensation at this time.
It took some time to tease the Taixu Sect members.
It would be a lie to say she wasn't nervous during this time.
She was afraid that Wuhulahu might suddenly decide to go to the cave to find her and her senior brother.
Before Wu Hu La Hu discovers anything amiss, she needs to get everyone out of there as soon as possible.
With a flick of her hand, a stack of talismans for concealing one's form and speed-up appeared in her palm.
"Follow my instructions. Those present will be assigned one-on-one, with one adult carrying one child."
"I will attach talismans to your bodies. Just follow me. Remember, don't fall behind and don't make a sound while running away."
"It's a bit of a distance from here to the exit. This is an acceleration talisman that will increase your speed. You might not be used to it at first, but that's okay. Keep your balance, and I'll take you out."
This was different from how he had teased Qin Chuan and the others earlier.
Sheng Ning stood at the entrance of the cave and made arrangements for the women and children inside.
Seeing that there were still several children in the cave, she waved to them, "Come here."
Several children were still sad because no one was there to guide them.
Seeing Sheng Ning waving at them, they immediately ran forward, asking, "Do you believe in your sister?"
Her voice was gentle, and her eyes held a warm smile.
Five or six children, barely reaching her waist, nodded emphatically. "We believe you, we believe in our sister!"
Sheng Ning smiled, her eyes crinkling. She reached out and ruffled their hair before speaking, "Next, I'll tie you up with vines. Don't be afraid, you won't fall."
She held up her chirp, and the chirp immediately chirped in response.
These are all children from ordinary families.
On ordinary days, seeing one or two cultivators on the street is enough to make them stop and look on with admiration.
Now that Sheng Ning has taken out Qiuqiu, they are not afraid at all; instead, their eyes are filled with curiosity.
"Sister, can I touch it after we get out?"
Living tree branches that can talk are very appealing to children.
Sheng Ning was taken aback for a moment upon hearing this, then laughed and said, "Of course, once we're outside, you can touch me however you like."
The sold chirp chirp!
One of the older children was sent to Lu Qing'an's side, and Sheng Ning distributed the talismans in her hand to everyone.
She only realized she had run out of talismans after sending out the last one.
Turning to look at Qin Chuan and the others, she chuckled and said, "The cost of the talismans is separate."
Qin Chuan and the others: ......
Their storage pouches were all taken by the demons. They had no talismans left on them, and the fact that the demon cultivators left them a set of sect robes was already a great favor.
Now that Sheng Ning had run out of talismans, Song Bei walked up to her and said, "Give me the talisman paper and wolf hair brush, I can draw some."
Speed-up talismans and concealment talismans are not difficult to make; they just require more spiritual energy.
As a Golden Core stage talisman cultivator, Song Bei could easily draw a few talismans.
"Xi Zhen just smashed the wolf-hair brush, but he has a lot of talisman paper. Here, take it."
Sheng Ning waved her hand, "Consider the talismans a gift from me, don't be shy."
Xi Zhen, who smashed the wolf-hair brush: ......
Song Bei, who can't draw talismans without wolves: ......
Oh shit!
Sheng Ning did it on purpose!
If Sheng Ning could hear their inner thoughts, she would definitely shrug and feign innocence.
The talismans in her hand were all prepared in advance by Yu Ye, so it's no wonder she ran out of them now.
Moreover, she only had one wolf hair brush on her body, which Guan Yunchuan had painstakingly crafted for her.
Without saying a word, Xi Zhen used his spiritual power to shatter the wolf hair brush. What did it have to do with her?
"You send them out first, and we can handle the rest ourselves."
Qin Chuan, who was standing to the side, suddenly spoke up.
Sheng Ning looked up and met his eyes, then slapped her forehead. "Oh right, your junior sister is still in the hands of the demonic cultivators."
"Here, this is Fellow Daoist Qin's mustard seed bag. Keep it safe. I hope to see Fellow Daoist Qin and his companions return in triumph soon."
"The journey of life is long, so let's meet again someday!"
There wasn't even a hint of hesitation on Sheng Ning's face.
After Qin Chuan finished speaking, she directly clasped her hands in farewell to him.
The sight caused Xi Zhen and the others' eyes to twitch uncontrollably.
Does this Sheng Ning even understand the rule that cultivators are all one family?
Sheng Ning didn't understand.
She only knew how to protect her master and fellow disciples, and in her spare time she would save those who needed saving.
After bidding farewell to Qin Chuan and the others, she had a thought, and the spiritual power she had left on the talisman took effect according to her thought.
In an instant, the cave, which had been filled with people, was now empty except for Qin Chuan and a few others.
With Bai Ze tucked under his arm, Sheng Ning led the group away from the cave.
A cloud of dust billowed up from the ground.
The women and children who had been imprisoned in the cave all left the cave.
"Shameless! Sheng Ning is utterly shameless! She actually abandoned us like that!"
Xi Zhen covered his mouth and nose with his sleeve, watching the smoke and dust gradually dissipate, and he was so angry that he jumped up and down.
Song Bei looked down at the talisman in his hand, then looked up in the direction where the smoke and dust had dissipated, and spoke after a long while.
"She doesn't have any invisibility or speed-up talismans, but she must have other talismans, right?"
"Furthermore, she saved everyone, but we rushed into the demon realm without hesitation to save people. Who gets credit for that good fortune?"
Qin Chuan's expression darkened. "Saving the common people is the duty of cultivators; there's no need to worry about rewards."
As for Sheng Ning...
Back when Sheng Ning was still in the Taixu Sect, she was a useless person with five-elemental spiritual roots and no spiritual power.
If he had known then that she would become like this, he would never have kept her in this world.
With his lips pressed tightly together, he took back the mustard seed bag and walked in the opposite direction from where Sheng Ning and the others had fled.
"Senior Brother, where are you going?" Xi Zhen and the others followed closely behind.
Qin Chuan's expression turned slightly cold, and he said in a deep voice, "Go find Junior Sister."
Shi Yueyao is also a member of the Taixu Sect, and as the senior disciple, he cannot abandon her.
