Although it was impossible to tell from the two people's states that Tu Nian was the frightened one, the evil aura still emitting a gloomy atmosphere on the ground did indicate that Elder Jie Wenchang's unique skill - the evil formation - was indeed used here.
The fact that Tu Nian was able to walk out of this evil formation safely and even take care of Sheng Gaoyang was beyond Fang Yuan's expectations, but also within reason.
After seeing Tu Nian's strength and ingenuity in the competition, he could imagine what the result would be if Tu Nian faced such a severely damaged late Jindan cultivator.
Fang Yuan was very worried.
Tu Niangui is Jixue's direct disciple and also a guest. Sheng Gaoyang is always causing trouble and has violated the sect rules by launching a killing formation without permission. All these factors combined make it seem like it's the fault of his useless junior brother.
However, Sheng Gaoyang's life or death was uncertain at this time. Even if Fang Yuan wanted to punish someone else, he had to save Sheng Gaoyang's life first. Otherwise, Sheng Gaoyang's punishment would be one thing, but the crime of him as the eldest brother for failing to provide treatment and Tu Nian for killing Bi Hai's disciples would be a serious matter.
Therefore, Fang Yuan hesitated for only a moment before decisively saying to Tu Nian, "Little Sister Tu, Junior Brother Sheng may be wrong in many ways, but he is still Uncle Jie's disciple. He is so seriously injured that he cannot delay any longer."
Tu Nian simply said, "Treat, treat yours."
She wanted revenge, but she didn't think it was as simple as taking someone's life. If Fang Yuan wanted to save someone, she would let him do it. After all, how much could a young man's life be worth?
The reason she spared Sheng Gaoyang's life was to exchange it for something more valuable. Although none of this was her original intention, the thought of extorting money from the wealthy Bi Hai family was truly satisfying.
Fang Yuan was not good at healing. After setting up a basic healing formation, Sheng Gaoyang still lay there like a dead fish without moving, which made him worried.
"Little Sister Tu, what happened to Junior Brother Sheng?"
"Um?"
Tu Nian was just thinking about what to ask Xue Shiqian for to recoup his investment. When he heard Fang Yuan calling out, he turned around and glanced. Then he understood, "Ah, it's the element interference talisman. It will inhibit the movement of elements."
As she spoke, she waved her hand to collect the talisman and raised her chin towards Fang Yuan, "Now try again."
Fang Yuan nodded and set up another formation, but after a moment, there was still no response.
His heart was gripped again, and Fang Yuan looked at Tu Nian with concern, "Little sister Tu, is my junior brother..."
Unexpectedly, before he could finish his words, Tu Nian turned around and kicked Sheng Gaoyang in the head.
"Hey, is he dead?"
"Tu Xiaomei!"
“Hmm…”
The moment Tu Nian kicked him, Fang Yuan felt like his heart was about to jump out. However, before he could finish being shocked, Sheng Gaoyang, who was kicked, suddenly reacted and moved twice on the ground while groaning.
It's confusing but not brain-damaging, and the force is just right.
Tu Nian raised an eyebrow and pointed at the man, "Look, he's living a good life. Don't think about nonsense all the time, it's unlucky."
"Little Sister Tu is right."
Fang Yuan agreed with a dark look on his face. Spiritual energy floated in his hands. He didn't even need any formations. Instead, he controlled the spiritual energy to make Sheng Gaoyang's body float up. He immediately hugged Tu Nian and said, "I have to take my junior brother to the hospital first. Please bear with me, little sister Tu."
"Go ahead."
Waving his hand nonchalantly, Tu Nian said, "Whether he lives or dies is none of my business. I just need Sect Master Xue to give me an explanation."
Suddenly she remembered something and said, "Brother Fang, please hurry up. I'm still waiting to go to the library."
Fang Yuan agreed and left with the seriously injured Sheng Gaoyang. Tu Nian, holding the Golden Crow Beast, walked back to the ivory tower and squatted there, in case she ran into any more idiots looking for trouble and had to use a few more talismans on her.
Poor Sheng Gaoyang, he had to go back again not long after getting off the hospital bed. What was even more pitiful was that Tu Nian did not hold back this time. The talismans and spells he used on him were not harmful at all but could cause him extreme pain.
For example, the caterpillar talisman.
This talisman was, of course, made by Tu Nian himself, the only one of its kind in the world. It had no offensive or defensive effects, its sole function being to amplify the properties of the chela flower sap on the talisman paper.
Sheng Gaoyang was fortunate enough to be the first person to try out this talisman. When he woke up, he would be greeted by alternating itching, numbness, and tingling, as well as a series of other different talisman effects.
Tu Nian was confident that after this incident, this kid would never dare to provoke her again.
Seeing that there was nothing to do around, Tu Nian simply started to stroke the Golden Crow Beast. However, before she had stroked it a few times, she caught a glimpse of a few dark shadows lurking around the flower bed. When she looked up, the dark shadows disappeared completely.
Tu Nian sighed softly and said slowly, "Since you've already followed me, hurry up if you want to talk or find fault. Otherwise, do you still have to wait for me to treat you?"
Not long after she finished speaking, the dark figures behind the flower bed came scrambling out. There were three of them, all with awkward smiles on their faces. They said reluctantly, "Daoyou really have good eyesight."
Tu Nian took a look and saw that they were the strong men that Sheng Gaoyang had just captured. She crossed her legs and looked at them from a distance and said, "So it's you. What? You want to avenge your eldest brother?"
“I dare not!”
The one with the highest cultivation among the three waved his hands repeatedly, saying with a mournful face, "Everyone knows that you are Sect Master Nie's direct disciple. But since Senior Brother Sheng has spoken, there's no way for us outer disciples to refuse."
"I have no choice, I understand."
Tu's thoughts wandered, "So what are you doing here?"
"that!"
The short male cultivator pointed tentatively at the Golden Crow beside Tu Nian and asked, "Excuse me, fellow Daoist, is this the legendary beast of the blazing sun, the Golden Crow?"
Wow. Tu Nian was stunned by the lengthy prefix and looked down at Jin Wu, "You have this name?"
"Woo?"
The Golden Crow nudged her suspiciously. It was just a bird, how could it know all this?
"Too."
Tu Nian smiled and said to those people, "Jiaojiao is indeed a golden crow."
“It’s true!”
The three of them looked at each other in surprise. The smaller male cultivator seemed to have made up his mind. He gritted his teeth, bowed to Tu Nian, and said, "I have a request. I wonder if you could sell me one of these Golden Crow's Reverse Feathers."
“Woo!”
The Golden Crow Beast immediately became furious, flapped its wings, and buried itself in Tu Nian's arms. "Mom, we can't do this!"
This guy has some knowledge and is really brave enough to ask.
Rubbing Jinwu's head soothingly, Tu Nian lowered his eyelashes and said calmly, "You followed Sheng Gaoyang to threaten me, and now you want to pluck the fur of my spirit pet. Fellow Daoist, you are really too bold."
"Fellow Daoist, you misunderstood!"
The short male cultivator said sincerely, "I'm not trying to stir up trouble, but this Golden Crow Feather is extremely precious to me. If you're willing, just name a price, and I won't argue."
