Immortality and Cultivation: I Have Too Many Talents

Chapter 291 Young Masters of Noble Families (Seeking Subscriptions)

"Fellow Daoist, it's a misunderstanding! This vicious dog is untamed and bites people indiscriminately. Please don't take it to heart."

Lu Wenshang said in a deep voice.

"My name is Zhuang Ninglu from Hundred Flowers Valley. May I ask which sect you belong to, fellow Daoist?"

His wife spoke out.

Hundred Flowers Valley is known as the eighth major sect in the Song Kingdom, meaning it is the strongest sect outside of the seven major sects.

The sect is full of female cultivators, who have formed marriage alliances with the seven major sects.

"Beast King Pavilion, Hundred Flowers Valley."

Shen Xuan nodded.

"Shen Fei, the rogue cultivator. How do you two intend to settle this matter?"

The two were from prominent families in the Song state, and it seemed they came from a noble lineage, making them of a higher social standing.

Shen Xuan took a step back.

I heard that he was just a rogue cultivator.

Lu Wenshang and Zhuang Ninglu exchanged a glance, both filled with suspicion.

This person appears to be only at the early stage of Foundation Establishment.

He was, however, a genuine ice magic cultivator.

With just this one technique of condensing water into ice fish, he was able to defeat the couple.

Lu Wenshang swallowed his anger and said, "It was our fault that the patrol dog bit someone. Fortunately, you were unharmed, so we'll compensate you with one thousand spirit stones to settle this matter, how about that?"

Shen Xuan smiled.

"Since the patrol dog is untamed, what's the point of keeping it? Just give it to me as compensation, I'll deep-fry it and eat it, it should taste pretty good."

As soon as these words came out.

Lu Wenshang and his wife looked extremely grim.

The patrol dog is a second-tier low-grade spirit beast, and its bloodline is extraordinary.

Equivalent to a cultivator in the early stage of Foundation Establishment.

It's a great helper.

Its attack on cultivators near the battlefield was also ordered by Lu Wenshang.

To avoid disturbing the couple's hunt for the bear demon.

I would never allow Shen Xuan to cook and eat him just because of this.

Zhuang Ninglu couldn't help but say, "Fellow Daoist Shen, don't go too far! The bear demons we hunted all escaped because of you!"

Lu Wenshang remained silent, staring intently at Shen Xuan.

Clearly, his thoughts were exactly the same as his wife's.

It was just an attack by a patrol dog, and it didn't cause you any damage.

The couple did indeed lose a second-tier bear demon.

Saying a few polite words is a way of giving you face.

Otherwise, as a couple from a prestigious sect, would they really be afraid of a mere rogue cultivator like you?
Even if they had some tricks up their sleeves, how could they possibly be a match for the combined forces of this couple!

Shen Xuan shook his head.

He knew that these sects and families were arrogant, unrealistic, and not easy to talk to.

The patrol dog attacked him without provocation.

What's wrong with him cooking and eating the patrol dog?
He hadn't eaten delicious dog meat in a long time.

As for Lu Wenshang and his wife.

As a scion of a noble family in the Beast King Pavilion, raising another one would be sufficient.

Shen Xuan would never say that he had his eye on the patrolling spirit dog's sharp teeth and wanted to try and plunder its bloodline talent.

Legend has it that the patrolling dogs have the bloodline of the divine beast, the Celestial Hound.

The Celestial Dog has truly sharp teeth and claws.

It bites people it sees, and it bites immortals it sees.

Even with a body of copper and iron, and an indestructible body, it can still bite off a piece of flesh.

"So, it turns out it was my fault. Not only do you two not intend to compensate me, but you also want me to make up for your losses from the failed hunt?"

Shen Xuan said calmly.

Zhuang Ninglu had been getting impatient for a while.

"Take it or leave it, one thousand spirit stones! If you don't want it, get lost!"

Shen Xuan sighed softly.

He really didn't want to get into any disputes with people.

However, they were inexplicably attacked by a spirit beast.

And the other party had such a terrible attitude.

To remain silent and suffer in silence, with a clouded mind and a depressed heart, is not conducive to spiritual practice and can easily breed inner demons.

"In that case, there's nothing more to say between us!"

Shen Xuan had just finished speaking.

Lu Wenshang's flying sword, gleaming coldly, swept past a phantom and shot over like lightning.

He was decisive, striking first without even giving a heads-up.

They wanted him dead.

the other side.

Zhuang Ninglu also used her white silk ribbon, which transformed into a long spear and flew through the air to stab at him.

The patrol dog roared and circled around Shen Xuan, revealing its sharp, white teeth, as if it might pounce and bite him at any moment.

Shen Xuan stared speechlessly at the two people in front of him.

Is this the upbringing of scions of powerful sects and aristocratic families?

They would kill someone at the slightest disagreement.

That being the case.

He finally made the decision with a clear conscience.

Those who kill will always be killed.

This couple has already found a way to kill themselves.

A cry from an eagle.

The Golden Claw Divine Eagle Corpse Beast leaped out of the beast pouch, extending its golden claws to grab at the patrolling spirit dog.

The Shadow Octopus Corpse Beast silently appeared, its eight tentacles tightly binding the spear formed from the white silk. With a slight exertion, it flung Zhuang Ninglu into the air.

At the same time, more than a dozen dark ice fish jumped out of Shen Xuan's body, turning into blue ice walls to block Lu Wenshang's flying sword.

The "ding-ding-ding" sound continued.

The flying sword only pierced through three layers of blue-green ice wall before losing its sharpness and turning back.

"You are a demonic cultivator from the Corpse Refining Sect!"

Lu Wenshang's face was gloomy.

Foundation Establishment stage demonic cultivators are inherently stronger than spiritual cultivators of the same level.

The Corpse Refining Sect is a renowned and powerful demonic sect in the Liang Kingdom.

No wonder he dared to turn against the couple with his early Foundation Establishment cultivation.

"You are the demonic cultivator of the Corpse Refining Sect!"

"Your whole family are demonic cultivators from the Corpse Refining Sect!"

Shen Xuan commanded two corpse beasts and retorted sarcastically.

He is clearly a spiritual practitioner who has achieved success in cultivating Taoism!
This couple not only have bad tempers, but they also have problems with their eyesight!

Lu Wenshang did not reply.

Gritting his teeth, he gripped his shield and sword with all his might, leaping forward to launch a full-force attack.

He saw clearly.

Zhuang Ninglu, the wife, and the patrolling spirit dog were clearly at a disadvantage in the battle against the two corpse beasts.

He's the only one who can turn the tide of the battle.

At times like this, saying anything is superfluous.

In battle, cultivators either don't make a move at all, or when they do, they go all out.

Nobody knows what cards the other side has up its sleeve.

Otherwise, even if they have the upper hand.

One moment of carelessness, and you are dead and gone.

Compared to Lu Wenshang's gritted teeth and all-out effort.

Shen Xuan remained calm and composed, holding back his strength. Dark ice fish continued to leap out of his body, sometimes transforming into blue ice walls, sometimes shooting out at lightning speed, keeping Lu Wenshang busy and unable to defend himself.

Although Lu Wenshang was a mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator from a major sect.

Whether it's spiritual power, divine consciousness, soul, or physical body, they are far inferior to Shen Xuan.

Shen Xuan used only a fraction of his strength to defeat him.

the other side.

The patrolling spirit dog was at a clear disadvantage against the Golden Claw Divine Eagle Corpse Beast, as it was fighting on the ground against the air.

Each time the Golden Clawed Divine Eagle Corpse Beast pounced through the air, it left a wound on the patrolling spirit dog.

No matter how fast the patrol dogs are, they can't outrun the aerial attack of the Golden Claw Divine Eagle Corpse Beast.

Those who are truly in crisis.

That was Zhuang Ninglu, who was fighting the Shadow Octopus Corpse Beast.

At this time, the Shadow Octopus Corpse Beast had already refined its golden body.

His strength is comparable to that of a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Zhuang Ninglu, who was only at the early stage of Foundation Establishment, was no match for the Shadow Octopus's attack.

"Husband, save me!"

Zhuang Ninglu refused to give up the White Silk Magic Weapon, but was grabbed by the Shadow Octopus and flung around wildly.

The Shadow Octopus Corpse Beast is known for its strength.

Zhuang Ninglu tried to outmuscle it; she must have lost her mind!
In fact, Zhuang Ninglu was unwilling to give up her White Silk Magic Weapon.

At this moment, under the pull of the eight tentacles of the Shadow Octopus Corpse Beast, the white silk magic weapon dimmed and revealed several cracks.

A "chi" sound.

The white silk magic weapon was forcibly torn apart.

Blood seeped from the corner of Zhuang Ninglu's mouth as she retreated rapidly.

Her natal magic weapon was destroyed, and her dantian was damaged.

"Miss!"

Lu Wenshang screamed in terror, his hair standing on end in fury.

Previously, he thought Shen Xuan was just a slightly more powerful rogue cultivator.

With the couple and their patrolling spirit dog, taking down a rogue cultivator in the early stage of Foundation Establishment would be a piece of cake!

Does right and wrong matter in a place like the Shadow Forest?

Not important at all.

Might makes right, and the weak are prey to the strong.

If you win, everything you do is right.

If you lose, you perish and your possessions belong to the winner.

This is the universal law of the cultivation world.

He was originally very confident.

To everyone's surprise, the opponent summoned two second-tier corpse beasts at the same time.

This is a secret technique of the Demon Sect and the Corpse Refining Sect.

Only then did Lu Wenshang understand.

The couple underestimated Shen Xuan's combat strength.

This person's cultivation level is definitely not at the early stage of Foundation Establishment!
However, it's too late to say anything now.

The two sides have gone to extremes, and there is absolutely no possibility of reconciliation.

Even if he wanted to reconcile, the other party wouldn't believe him.

There was a "whoosh" sound.

Lu Wenshang knocked away several dark ice fish, transformed into a streak of light, and flew over to rescue Zhuang Ninglu.

"go!"

He ordered the patrolling spirit dogs to cover their retreat, activated several attack talismans, and then tried to escape with Zhuang Ninglu.

However, how could his speed compare to Shen Xuan's lightning escape technique?

After a series of crackling sounds.

Shen Xuan used lightning to teleport in front of Lu Wenshang and his wife.

When Lu Wenshang saw Shen Xuan appear in front of him, he was terrified and turned to run away.

Shen Xuan opened his mouth.

[Awe-inspiring and powerful!]
The strange noise was like thunder, and its force was like a surging sea.

Both Lu Wenshang and his wife suffered from disordered spiritual energy, unstable souls, and limp bodies, falling from the sky!

"what……"

Lu Wenshang, carrying his wife, fell hard without any spiritual protection!
"Fellow Daoist, stop! I admit defeat!"

We are willing to compensate you for your losses!

At this point, Lu Wenshang and Zhuang Ninglu dared not act recklessly.

Shen Xuan smiled.

A light finger.

A dark ice fish leaped from the fingertip, shooting swiftly towards the vital spot on the patrolling spirit dog's head, piercing right through it.

The patrol dog let out a few mournful howls, collapsed to the ground, and soon fell silent.

In front of the two of them, Shen Xuan put the corpse of the patrol dog into his beast pouch.

"Fellow Daoist Shen, the vicious dog has been killed, and this matter is now closed. Is that alright?"

Lu Wenshang forced a smile and said.

Zhuang Ninglu was terrified, her face pale, and she had long lost her former aggressive demeanor.

Shen Xuan shook his head.

"If you hadn't attacked me, this matter could have been settled in this way."

"Now, the nature of the matter is different!"

"Fellow Daoists, you don't naively believe that I, Shen, am a soft-hearted person, do you?"

Lu Wenshang and Zhuang Ninglu looked at each other, both noticing the fear in each other's eyes.

We definitely can't win if we fight.

There's no escaping it.

How unlucky they were to run into such a monster!

Logically speaking, Lu Wenshang is a mid-Foundation Establishment cultivator and a disciple of a major sect.

Even a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator would find it difficult to kill him.

Given his status as a scion of a prominent family, people usually wouldn't want to break ties with him.

However, Shen Xuan's combat strength was truly astonishing.

Not only could he easily defeat the couple.

It also possesses the extremely rare Lightning Release technique.

Furthermore, he possesses a bizarre and unorthodox soul-attacking technique.

This caused Lu Wenshang and his wife to lose their spiritual power and become unable to escape.

"Fellow Daoist Shen, just name your terms! I'll take your hits!"

Lu Wenshang said firmly.

He has the capital.

The Lu family of the Beast Emperor Pavilion, whose ancestor was a fake Core Formation True Person.

He didn't believe that Shen Xuan would actually kill him.

It's just a matter of how many spirit stones to compensate!

Zhuang Ninglu quickly chimed in, "Fellow Daoist, my husband is a direct descendant of True Person Lu, a Core Formation seed of the Beast Emperor Pavilion. This time, my husband's vicious dog was untamed and has been killed. He is being compensated to you, fellow Daoist."

"If you like to eat the patrol dogs, I'll have my husband buy two more for you from the sect!"

"That's good, I can compensate you with two more patrol dogs!"

Lu Wenshang also realized that the patrol dog was useful to Shen Xuan.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have gone out of his way to kill it and put it in his beast pouch.

Could it be that he intends to refine the patrol dogs into corpse beasts?

"And two more patrol dogs as compensation?"

Shen Xuan seemed somewhat tempted.
