The auction houses' mistake nearly put the disciples in danger, so when distributing the treasures, each auction house gave up 20%, resulting in a 30/70 split as compensation.
Because Linglong Pavilion has decided to rebuild next to Ninghua Sect, all the treasures found have been brought back to Ninghua Sect.
Even though everyone already knew the quantity and value of the treasures, they still couldn't help but drool with envy when they saw the Ninghua Sect members packing them up and taking them away.
The elders of each branch stood tall and proud, each one looking like a goose at the village entrance, and even deliberately cast provocative glances at the Flying Cloud Sect.
Ye Huai and his companions were astonished when they saw the treasures that Shen Sangruo had found.
"Junior Sister, you're amazing! We can't even match a fraction of your skill." Su Xiyu naturally took her hand.
Bai Ruoan's gaze fell on the delicate and adorable little girl beside her. "Junior Sister, where did you pick up this little girl?"
He wanted to ask as soon as he came out, but he just hadn't found the opportunity.
"Junior Sister, is this another treasure you found? As expected of Junior Sister!" Song Weiyan exclaimed in admiration. "Let me see, this hair looks extraordinary, it can be used in medicine, right?"
Before Shen Sangri could speak, he reached out to Xiao Shi, wanting to pick up a strand of hair to examine it closely.
Just as his hand was about to touch the hair, a red, unidentified object slapped his hand with a "smack," and then he felt the same sensation on his face.
She instantly pulled her hand back, covered her face, and her face was a little wet.
Holy crap!
He immediately looked at Xiao Shi with suspicion, but she gave him a harmless smile, looking innocent and naive.
He had already broken through to the late stage of the Golden Core realm, and indeed he hadn't sensed any movement from Xiao Shi just now.
Song Weiyan scratched his head. "Am I hallucinating?"
"It wasn't a hallucination; I saw a red afterimage," Ye Huai said.
The others also looked over.
"Alright, Xiao Shi, stop fooling around with my senior brother." Chen Sangruo ruffled Xiao Shi's hair. "She's a new demon beast I formed a bond with in the Starry Plains; she's a snake demon."
Before she could even marvel at the new contracted beast she had found, Song Weiyan looked somewhat dazed. "A snake demon? Then what was that that touched my hand and face just now...?"
"Hello, Brother Song." The little girl's voice was soft and sweet, her eyebrows were curved, and her smile was sweet.
Well, if you ignore the snake's tongue waving in her mouth as if greeting Song Weiyan.
Bai Ruoan and Su Xiyu burst out laughing.
Song Weiyan was completely flustered. Pointing at Xiao Shi with one hand and covering her face with the other, she said to Chen Sangruo, her face pale, "She licked me!"
"This is how our snake clan expresses friendship," Xiao Shi said earnestly, pouting.
"Really?" Wasn't what he did just now very hurtful? After all, the other person is just a young girl.
Ji Zicang had also joined in at some point, "This is how the snake clan expresses friendship? Isn't this wrong?"
“I remember Master saying that this is how the snake clan plays with their prey.” He stroked his chin and confirmed, “She wants to eat you.”
"What?!" Song Weiyan's face paled again. "Junior Sister, you have to keep an eye on her. She tried to eat us as soon as she saw us. What will happen in the future?"
"No, Xiao Shi isn't that kind of snake, sister." Xiao Shi weakly tugged at Chen Sangruo's dress, looking utterly pitiful.
The others were stunned, but Shen Sangruo, who had seen her true face, remained unmoved.
"Who are you calling 'sister'? That's my sister Sang Ruo!" Fang Yu caught the key words and rushed in front of the group, looking at Xiao Shi with considerable wariness.
No one can take his place, not even a little girl who looks only a few years old.
Seeing this, Shen Sangruo was both amused and exasperated, explaining, "She doesn't eat people, she eats snakes, so Second Senior Brother can rest assured."
"This is your third contracted beast, right?" Ji Zicang asked with envy, as he only had one contracted beast, Da Kuan.
Thinking of the little koi fish still recovering in her sea of consciousness, she wasn't quite sure. "I guess so. There's another one I don't know if it counts."
She recounted the story of the little koi fish, and received an affirmative reply from Yuan Jin, who was not far away. The little koi fish could also be considered her contracted beast.
"Ah, four now, how enviable!" Ji Zicang exclaimed.
Lin Qianyin looked at Xiao Shi, "Then what level of strength does she possess?"
Those who can catch Shen Sangri's eye and form a bond with her must be quite powerful.
Everyone predicted that he would be in the early or middle stages of the Nascent Soul stage.
"Xiao Shi is a demon at the late Nascent Soul stage, and she's about to break through to the Divine Transformation stage," Xiao Shi answered proactively.
Not only the people around, but even the elders over there all looked over, especially Yuan Jin.
He looked at Shen Sangruo as if seeking confirmation from her.
"She's right."
After she nodded in confirmation, she completely lost her composure.
The Taoist Wuwei grinned from ear to ear, while Immortal Lord Changli's face was filled with pride, as if they were the ones who had formed a pact with Xiaoshi.
"This little one is about to break through to the Nascent Soul stage?" Fang Yu, who wanted to have a go at Xiao Shi, immediately chickened out.
"Little one?" Shen Sanruo raised an eyebrow at Xiaoshi.
No wonder they didn't sense any demonic aura emanating from Xiao Shi, nor did they see her make a move.
"So if Xiaoshi wanted to eat Brother Song, she would have done it long ago. Xiaoshi is not lying to you."
Song Weiyan: ...
It doesn't cause much harm, but it's extremely insulting.
Damn it, if it weren't for that great upheaval, those four wouldn't be any worse than this snake!
It doesn't matter. No matter how powerful the monster is, it still became his junior sister's contracted beast.
Song Weiyan composed herself and gave Chen Sangruo a thumbs up, "As expected of Junior Sister!"
They must hurry up and cultivate. Even Shen Sangruo's contracted beasts are not all below the Nascent Soul stage, which makes them, her senior brothers and sisters, feel ashamed.
"Sister, I need to find a place to prepare for my tribulation. I'll come back to find you after I break through to the Nascent Soul stage." Xiao Shi could sense her location through the contract.
If Shen Sang understood, he would pull out the Kui Niu, which was fast asleep in his sea of consciousness.
"Take it with you. It's lightning-attribute and can help you share the burden of heavenly lightning, making it easier for you to break through. The more you shock it, the more it will improve."
The two beasts were connected through her. Although they couldn't help the snake woman withstand an entire bolt of lightning like they could with her, they could at least help withstand the scattered lightning strikes.
A bewildered Kui Niu: Moo?
Human language?
"Xiao Shi understands, thank you, sister." Xiao Shi transformed into a snake, a black snake, and before the Kui Niu could resist, she coiled up around it and disappeared in a blur.
After Xiaoshi and Kuiniu left, they started on the next topic.
"Junior Sister, how did you shrink those spirit vein ores?" Su Xiyu asked.
“These little guys helped me.” She opened the bag, and the giant insects poked their bodies out and greeted the people present.
Both the giant insect and the fast snail can pass through the barrier.
