Lin Jingge, who was crouching on a tree branch, carried the energy gun on her shoulder and silently aimed it at the withered vine snake.
According to Xiao Shi's calculations, the energy gun was already filled with spirit stones, and the limited energy in the space was also extracted and poured into the energy gun.
Fortunately, the withered vine snake was some distance from its companion flower, so the energy gun wouldn't damage the flower, and Lin Jingge dared to aim.
All the energy in the energy gun was released, and a flash of white light appeared before our eyes.
"boom--"
Before the withered vine snake could react, it had already been cut in two, and even the cliff had been punched with a small hole.
The snake's two bodies rolled down the cliff, and the large red accompanying flower also fell down with them.
Upon seeing this, Lin Jingge's heart tightened, and she quickly stepped forward.
Fortunately, the cliff wasn't high, and she slid down by pulling herself up on the vines along the edge.
Upon seeing the two pieces of withered vine snake carcass, she did not immediately approach them, but instead picked up a piece of withered twig from the ground and threw it over.
The moment the branch touched the snake's head, it was immediately gripped tightly by the snake's jaws, and the withered branch instantly broke in two. After the withered vine snake's final strike, its two venomous fangs also fell to the ground.
Seeing this, Xiao Shi was startled and exclaimed: "That was close!"
With a sullen face, Lin Jingge took out a wooden box from the bundle on her back, put the symbiotic flower of the withered vine snake inside, then placed it in the bundle and hung it on her chest.
Seeing the intact companion flower, Lin Jingge breathed a sigh of relief, a long-lost smile appearing on her face, and a great weight was lifted from her heart.
She then tied up the two sections of the withered vine snake's body, and also kept the two venomous fangs.
These are all good things that can be sold for money.
After all, it's a second-tier demon beast, so it's worth quite a bit of money.
If it weren't for having the energy gun, Lin Jingge would definitely not have dared to provoke this second-tier demon beast.
Now that her space has been completely shut down because the energy has been drained, she can't put the energy gun back. She can only dig a hole and temporarily bury the energy gun underground.
Dragging the two pieces of corpse, each about a meter long, Lin Jingge headed towards Lingyun City.
There weren't many people in the desolate wilderness, but after entering the city, many people stared at Lin Jingge. When they saw that she was dragging a second-tier demon beast, their gazes became much more intense.
Lin Jingge stopped in front of the Treasure Pavilion, looked up at the sign, and after confirming that this was the place, immediately dragged the snake's body into the shop.
Lin Jingge: "Excuse me, do you accept second-tier demonic beasts here?"
"We've got it! We've got it!" Upon hearing that it was a second-tier demonic beast, the manager of the Treasure Pavilion's eyes immediately lit up.
Second-tier demonic beasts are valuable; their meat is pure and full of spiritual energy, and their skin and bones are excellent materials for refining weapons.
Despite the large population of Lingyun City, there are not many cultivators, and even fewer who can defeat second-tier demonic beasts.
The shopkeeper sized up Lin Jingge. Although he could tell that she was a Qi Refining cultivator, he did not dare to underestimate her.
After all, the other party was holding a second-tier demonic beast, so they must have a powerful elder behind them. They didn't dare to take advantage of the other party and gave a fair price.
Lin Jingge didn't actually know how much the item in her hand was worth; she was satisfied with the price offered, but she didn't show it.
"I wonder if it's possible to exchange the silver for spirit stones?"
"OK."
After the other party gave her spirit stones, Lin Jingge took out the two venomous fangs: "Would you like these?"
The shopkeeper naturally accepted it, and after the transaction was completed, he didn't forget to remind Lin Jinge that if she ever had any more second-tier demonic beasts in the future, she must sell them to their Treasure Pavilion.
Lin Jingge had a good impression of the store, so naturally she didn't refuse.
Finally, she left the Treasure Pavilion carrying a box of spirit stones.
After taking only a few steps, I noticed people spying on me from all directions.
She pursed her lips and quickened her pace, arriving at the entrance of the Qian residence.
"Please inform them that I'm looking for Miss Qian," she said to the guard at the door.
Not long after Lin Jingge left, the guards naturally remembered her. Seeing her return, they felt strange but didn't think much of it and informed Miss Qian on her behalf.
The guards rushed to the door and led Lin Jingge to Miss Qian's room.
"Why are you back?" Qian Suisui, who was lying on the table with a worried look on her face, looked up at Lin Jingge in confusion.
"Here's your spirit stone back." Lin Jingge placed the wooden box in her arms on the round table.
Upon seeing the familiar wooden box, Qian Suisui's eyes widened: "You don't need it anymore?"
"I've already used it. Thank you so much this time. I will do my best to repay you if you need anything in the future." Lin Jingge opened the wooden box, and thirty spirit stones lay quietly inside.
She hadn't expected to pay off the spirit stones in one go. Not only that, she even earned five more, which shows how valuable this second-tier demon beast was—it was practically a treasure from head to toe.
However, the most valuable items are the beast cores and venomous fangs, which make up the majority of these spirit stones.
Qian Suisui accepted the spirit stones and took out an IOU. The mark on the IOU disappeared after Lin Jingge repaid the spirit stones.
Lin Jingge, now free of debt, noticed Qian Suisui's worried expression.
"Is something bothering you?" Lin Jingge asked. She hadn't spent much time going back and forth, so why was Qian Suisui, who was originally happy, in such a state when she returned?
"Sigh, it's all because of my older brother." Qian Suisui sighed, "The spiritual energy in his body suddenly surged. If we can't find a way to suppress the surging spiritual energy, I'm afraid my older brother's cultivation level will drop."
A decline is a good thing; the most terrifying thing is that if it goes on for too long, you might not even be able to save your life.
