When my vicious stepmother mistakenly married me to the Immortal Lord

Jiang Song quickly struck the black wolf demon with a few more swords to ensure that it had completely lost the ability to counterattack, and then began to check the demon wolf's body.

Jiang Zhi stood guard on the side to prevent other monsters from taking advantage of the situation and entering.

He took out a specially made small bag from his bosom and handed it to Jiang Song. "Miss Luo, this is a storage bag specially used to store monster beasts. It can keep the monster beast's body from decaying and its spiritual energy from dissipating."

This was Jiang Song’s first time hunting monsters, and he just learned that the storage bag had such a wonderful use, which made subsequent processing and selling more convenient.

She took the storage bag and put the black demon wolf's body into it.

Unfortunately, although this demon wolf looks terrifying in size, it has actually only been practicing for twenty or thirty years, and even its demon pill has not yet condensed, so its value is greatly reduced.

However, its fur, meat, bones, organs, and claws can all be used as medicine or to refine tools, so it is still a small fortune.

Jiang Song put away his storage bag and turned to look at Jiang Zhi. "This fur is very tough. Do you want to keep it for yourself to refine armor? Or do you plan to sell it and split the profits?"

Jiang Zhi smiled slightly and shook his head. "Miss Luo, if you need it, just take it. Look, I already have armor, and it's better than this material."

Jiang Zhi said this, pointing to the soft armor he was wearing that was shimmering. It was obviously a piece of protective gear of good quality.

Jiang Song already had the green water scale armor, so naturally he no longer needed the fur of this demon wolf.

The two of them tidied up briefly, and seeing that the sun was about to set, they decided to find a safe place to recover their spiritual power and prepare to withdraw from the Black Wind Mountains.

They found a relatively open and hidden cave, the entrance of which was covered by dense vegetation and was not easy to be discovered.

Outside the cave, Jiang Zhi set up a simple warning formation.

The two entered the cave, and Jiang Song lit a lighting talisman, and the cave suddenly became bright.

They each found a comfortable place to sit down, closed their eyes and began to rest, recovering the spiritual power consumed in the previous battle.

About half an hour later, both of them had recovered most of their spiritual power.

"Miss Luo, your swordsmanship is really unique. I wonder who your master is?" Jiang Zhi asked curiously.

Jiang Song pondered for a moment, "I am just a casual cultivator. My sword skills are just a patchwork of ideas, which I figured out on my own. I don't have any specific master."

Jiang Zhi heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then turned into admiration, "I see, Miss Luo is self-taught, it's really admirable."

"Mr. Jiang, your thunder talisman seems to be quite powerful. I wonder where you learned it from?" Jiang Song changed the subject.

Jiang Zhi laughed heartily, not hiding anything. "It's a family tradition, my ancestors have all been talisman makers, so naturally I've been influenced by them since I was a child and I'm quite interested in the art of talismans."

"I see that you are also practicing lightning magic. If you are interested in talismans, I have a copy of 'Secret Records of Thunder Talismans' here. It is a treasured collection of my family and I can lend it to you for reference."

As Jiang Zhi spoke, he took out a yellowed booklet from his pocket. The title of the book was written in an ancient font on the cover, which seemed quite old.

Jiang Song was stunned and declined, "How can I do this? Young Master Jiang's family heirloom, how can I borrow it?"

Jiang Zhi smiled carefreely and handed the booklet to Jiang Song. "You have to pay half of the cost of the spells consumed today. This book is just a thank you gift."

Jiang Song couldn't refuse, so he had to take it and read it.

Opening the booklet, I saw that it recorded the methods of drawing and using various thunder talismans. It was rich in pictures and texts, and detailed explanations. It was obviously the result of the hard work of a lineage of talisman makers.

In just half an hour, she had memorized the contents of the "Secret Record of Thunder Talisman" by heart. The method of drawing the talisman, the path of the flow of spiritual power, and the spell to activate the talisman were all clearly engraved in her mind.

"Mr. Jiang, this is your family heirloom after all. It is a great honor for me to be able to see it for a while. I dare not keep it for long. I should return it to you."

Jiang Song closed the booklet and solemnly handed the "Secret Record of Thunder Talisman" back to Jiang Zhi.

After only borrowing it for a while, Jiang Zhi wanted to return it. He felt that Jiang Song was a very honest person.

Anyway, the book had already been lent to her, so he didn't take advantage of her. So he took the book with a smile and put it in his arms.

Seeing that their spiritual power had recovered, the two men stood up and left the cave, flying towards the outskirts of the Black Wind Mountains on their swords.

On the way, they occasionally encountered one or two low-level monsters, but they did not attack them, but just carefully avoided them. After all, it was already late at night, and they did not want to cause trouble.

As the night deepened and the moon reached its zenith, the two finally flew out of the Black Wind Mountains and returned to where the flying boat was docked.

When the two jumped onto the deck, they found Shadow standing alone at the bow, his figure under the cloak looking particularly lonely in the moonlight.

Seeing them return, Youying just nodded slightly as a greeting.

Xie Gaozhao was sitting in the cabin, fiddling with the spiritual beads in his hand. Hearing the noise, he looked up and asked with a smile, "Hey, you two are back? How did you get?"

Jiang Songyang raised the storage bag in his hand and smiled faintly, "Not bad, I hunted a black demon wolf."

Xie Gaozhao's eyes lit up, "Oh? A black demon wolf? That's worth some spirit stones."

Jiang Song and Jiang Zhi smiled at each other without saying much.

Jiang Zhi asked, "Shopkeeper Gao Zhao, when are we going to return?"

Xie Gaozhao stood up and shook off his robes. "We can set off immediately. But, I wonder if Miss Youying has any gains?"

His eyes flickered slightly beneath the shadowy cloak, and his voice was cold, "Please don't worry about my affairs, Shopkeeper Gao Zhao."

Xie Gaozhao didn't care about Youying's indifference, "Let's go back to the city!"

"There is still one person missing. Brother Wang Qian has not returned yet." Jiang Zhi suddenly spoke, looking towards the direction of the Black Wind Mountains with a frown on his face.

"No need to wait, he's already dead." Xie Gaozhao glanced at Youying nonchalantly. Although he didn't say some things explicitly, everyone knew it.

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere on the flying boat instantly became solemn.

This is how the world of cultivation is, the strong prey on the weak, and life and death are determined by fate.

Wang Qian’s disappearance was just a very common occurrence in the Black Wind Mountains.

Whether he was killed by his companions, encountered a high-level monster, or got lost in some corner of the mountains, it no longer mattered.

Xie Gaozhao shrugged, turned and walked towards the control room of the flying boat, ready to start the flying boat.

Soon, the flying boat took off into the air, shining brightly, and sped towards the direction of the imperial capital.

When they arrived at Tianbao Tower, Jiang Song and Jiang Zhi sold the black wolf demon's corpse for 760 medium-grade spirit stones.

Since this mission does not have government subsidies like killing monsters, the cost of the flying boat for Tianbao Tower and some other miscellaneous expenses need to be deducted.

In the end, the two of them each received about 300 medium-grade spirit stones.

After this collaboration, Jiang Song and Jiang Zhi both had a good impression of each other, so they signed up together for the next monster hunting mission.
