Chapter 117 Farewell
The excruciating pain, like being stabbed by a thousand needles, spread rapidly throughout his body. Bones broke one by one, and the "crack" sounded like a heavy hammer hitting his nerves. His throat felt like it was being strangled, and he could only whimper faintly.
He stared at Nan Xiao with a pale face, as if to say, "I'm going to give you a quick win, why are you going back on your word?"
Nan Xiao understood his expression and explained, "I forgot to tell you, you can't believe what I said."
"You broke a few of my brother's ribs, so I'll break all your bones. That's only fair."
Watching him struggling in pain on the ground, Nan Xiao felt it was meaningless.
She raised her sword and stabbed it into his heart with a decisive move, sending him to his death.
When Shen Chaochao saw this scene, his eyes rolled back and he fainted.
Nan Xiao pulled out the sword, walked to Shen Chaochao and kicked her, but the latter did not move and did not react at all.
"It seems he's not pretending."
"Forget it, I'll give you a bargain. I'll make your death less painful."
This demon was dead, and all the defensive magic weapons on Shen Chaochao's body were destroyed. She just didn't believe that he could not die.
Nan Xiao raised her sword and slashed towards Shen Chaochao's neck. Her sword had just swung halfway when three daggers flew out from the darkness and directly blocked her sword.
"Gu An?"
I actually forgot about this kid.
Gu An walked out of the darkness silently. After not seeing him for a few days, his temperament became much gloomier.
He said, "Junior Sister Nan, this is a disciple of my Tianjian Sect. No matter what she has done, I should bring her back to the sect and let her accept the sect's punishment."
Nan Xiao: “…”
She knew it wasn't that simple.
Gu An must have been kicked in the head by a donkey. Shen Chaochao wanted to kill him too, but he still wanted to save others?
Compared with him, Wang Baochuan would feel ashamed.
"If I don't let you, what are you going to do?"
Gu An was silent for a while before he spoke: "Junior Sister Nan, I can only offend you."
As soon as he finished speaking, dozens of daggers came out and pointed at Nan Xiao. As long as she dared to get close to Shen Chaozhao, these daggers would stop her immediately.
Nan Xiao lowered his head and chuckled. When he raised his head again, there was no smile on his face, only indifference.
She swung her sword and knocked down several daggers that tried to intercept her. She said coldly, "I hate it most when people threaten me."
Her sword pointed directly at Shen Chaochao's eyebrows, but she still didn't believe it.
It would be a pity to miss such a good opportunity.
Gu An didn't seem to want to hurt her, and those daggers were just preventing her from getting close to Shen Chaochao.
Several times, Nan Xiao's sword had clearly touched Shen Chaochao's skin, but that strong resistance appeared again.
In other words, even without Gu An, she still couldn't kill Shen Chaochao.
But wasn't she able to hurt Shen Chaochao before? Why couldn't she do that now?
What was going on? Or had she overlooked something again?
Nan Xiao put away his sword. Why waste his energy if he couldn't kill him?
"I'm tired of fighting anymore."
Gu An bowed and said, "Thank you, Junior Sister Nan, for your kindness."
Nan Xiao: “…”
Lift your big head ghost.
"I can let you take the person away, but you know I don't like to suffer losses. You have to pay something, right?"
If you can't kill it, then move it away. It's also good to get some benefits. It's better than leaving it here and being an eyesore.
Gu An said nothing. He walked to Shen Chaochao, took out the storage ring from her body, and then consciously erased her mark.
Shen Chaochao, who was in a coma, vomited blood and his cultivation level dropped from the middle stage of foundation building to the early stage of foundation building.
"Junior Sister Nan, here."
Gu An handed the storage ring to Nan Xiao.
This smooth combo of moves left Nan Xiao stunned.
She had thought of all kinds of things, but she never expected that Gu An would take Chen Chaochao's storage ring and give it to her.
Nan Xiao took it and gasped when she saw what was inside. Not to mention other treasures, just the mountain of spirit stones made her drool. There must be at least one million of them.
There were also rare spiritual plants and fruits piled up in the corner, and rare treasures on the side. It was too much to see, too much to see at all.
No wonder Shen Chaochao was not interested in the spiritual plants in the yard. It turned out that the good ones were all in her storage ring.
Nan Xiao restrained his expression and said, "It's barely okay. Take the person away."
She was going back to count the spirit stones.
Gu An nodded slightly: "Junior Sister Nan, don't worry, I will send her back to the sect and report the truth to Master without any bias."
Nan Xiao: “…”
So, she misunderstood Gu An just now?
He wasn't some love-brained, seasoned bootlicker. Was he really just trying to bring the person back to the sect for punishment?
Forget it, never mind him, it has nothing to do with her.
Nan Xiao took the things he had just received and left happily.
········
The next morning
Everyone gathered together, and Nan Xiao suggested that they dig up all the spiritual plants in the yard before leaving.
The main one cannot be wasted.
Jian Mo quickly agreed: "I think so too."
As an alchemy practitioner, how can I not be moved when looking at these spiritual plants?
Finally, Qiao Yue concluded: "Okay, let's all work together. Whoever digs it up gets it."
"OK···"
Except for Su Xun, who was a patient, everyone else joined the team to dig spiritual plants.
As for Gu An and Shen Chaochao, no one saw them early in the morning, so they probably left overnight.
Wang Yifan's body also turned back into his original form. Qiao Yue saw it and without asking any questions, she burned it directly, leaving no residue.
·····
It took the group exactly one morning to dig up the spiritual plants.
Everyone packed up their things, came to the exit of the secret realm, and got out of the secret realm at the last moment.
The wandering cultivators outside were scattered here and there, and it was unclear whether the others had left or had not come out yet.
Several sect disciples gathered together to say goodbye.
Jian Mo hugged Nan Xiao and said reluctantly, "Xiao Xiao, come and play in our sect in the future."
"Okay." Nan Xiao agreed immediately.
Zhuo Hua patted Su Xun's shoulder and said, "Get well soon. Let's have a fair fight in the sect competition."
Su Xun rolled his eyes at him and said, "Then you have to go back and work hard, so as not to lose so miserably and be embarrassed."
"I'll leave that sentence to you." Zhuo Hua raised his chin proudly, "There's no way I can lose."
"If you meet me, you lose..."
The two of them started their elementary school student verbal battle again.
Nan Xiao took out a pill and handed it to Mingcheng.
Said: "This is what I promised you before, you are free."
Calculating the time, today is the last day.
Sometimes she still keeps her word. Look, she released the person just like that.
At worst, I can just catch it next time. After all, it’s really easy to use.
Mingcheng narrowed his eyes slightly: "You didn't put anything in it."
"Don't pull it off."
The moment Nan Xiao withdrew his hand, Mingcheng snatched the pill and swallowed it in one gulp.
He said, "I believe you this time, but why is it so sweet."
Nan Xiao said confidently: "I'm afraid it will be bitter for you, so I specially added sugar for you. Don't be too touched."
Actually, it’s just the candy I bought before, which has been tainted with the fragrance of some elixirs.
"Then I really leave?" Mingcheng said tentatively.
"Well, if you want to go back to the sect with me, you can."
As soon as he said this, there was no trace of Mingcheng around, which showed that he was really afraid of entering the sect.
