After practicing the ruthless way, the little sister is too strong

How does it feel to discuss someone behind their back and get caught in the act?

Just look at Xia Ling’s current state.

Although it wasn't anything bad that slandered him, the feeling of embarrassment was the same.

Looking at the fourth senior brother Jiang Ci who was walking towards him with a cold expression.

Xia Ling forced a smile and used his eloquent tongue to defend himself: "What do you mean by cruel? This is absolutely an insult to Fourth Brother! This kind of words has nothing to do with Fourth Brother, who is both talented and beautiful, elegant, smart, gentle, considerate and gentle!

Actually, what I meant was that the elder and my senior brother have the same extraordinary temperament, so I used the word "relative" to contrast the impression that my senior brother has in my heart. He is just as knowledgeable and consistent as the fifth elder."

Seeing his junior sister flattering him without taking a breath, Lin Xingfan was filled with admiration and gave her a thumbs up with his hands behind his back.

He whispered, "Little Junior Sister, you are still the best."

Xia Ling was modest: "Be low-key."

Jiang Ci took in all the little movements of the two, stopped, leaned against the ginkgo tree and watched them quietly, "It seems that I misunderstood? I didn't know that I was so perfect in the eyes of Junior Sister."

"Of course!" Xia Ling coughed dryly and said seriously, "By the way, Fourth Senior Brother, do you want to talk to us about something?"

He usually doesn't show up unless it's necessary.

Jiang Ci said simply, "You will go to Guyun City with me in one month."

"Why are you going there?" Lin Xingfan asked casually.

Jiang Ci showed no emotion: "Buy ore."

Lin Xingfan understood: "Oh, this, I almost forgot about it."

The leisurely yet important job of purchasing ore has always been taken turns by the elders' and the sect master's disciples. He almost forgot that it would be his and Jiang Ci's turn next month.

"But why does Junior Sister want to go too? Doesn't she still need to learn the art of talismans from the Fifth Elder?"

Jiang Ci glanced at him and said, "Why don't you go ask what Master means?"

Lin Xingfan: “Oh.”

Xia Ling thought for a moment and said, "Thank you, Fourth Senior Brother, for telling me. I will go. I will discuss it with the Fifth Elder tomorrow."

"Hmm." Although she said she didn't know, from the attitude of the master when he spoke, it was obvious that he wanted her to go outside and relax.

To put it simply: go play.

But the word has already been passed on, and it has nothing to do with him anymore, so why bother to make it so clear.

After Jiang Ci finished speaking, he turned and left, obviously not intending to stay any longer.

Looking at his receding back, Xia Ling asked, "Fifth Senior Brother, how long does it usually take to go there?"

"About seven days."

"That's not bad, it won't take long."

"Alas, tomorrow is another difficult day." Lin Xingfan was no longer looking forward to tomorrow, and said weakly: "Junior Sister, let's go back first."

"Okay." Xia Ling was also very tired.

For the next month, Xia Ling, Lin Xing, Fan Simu Feng and others spent their time under Luo Wenzhou's arrangement.

In addition to basic physical training and various exercises to strengthen the body, Xia Ling spent most of this month practicing various talismans and learning basic spells such as using talismans to form seals and set up formations.

He could barely be considered a talisman practitioner with some achievements.

During this period, Lin Xingfan also tried to learn how to draw talismans out of curiosity, but his results were either the talismans exploded or they backfired, so he gave up and practiced swordsmanship instead.

After all, you can’t force it if you don’t have talent, right?

As for Si Mufeng, all we can say is that his talent and efficiency are truly terrifying.

In just over a month, he had learned all 356 low-level talismans, and had also mastered most of the mid-level talismans and various talisman techniques.

Even Luo Wenzhou, who seldom praised others, was very satisfied with it.

In short, the three of them learned a lot during these days.

Time quickly came to the day that Jiang Ci mentioned. Xia Ling had asked for leave from Luo Wenzhou early on, so his daily routine was no longer about practicing drawing talismans, but leaving the sect and heading for Guyun City!

All three of them were sword cultivators, and they arrived at Guyun City in half a day by flying their swords.

Overall, although Guyun City is not as good as Qingning City, it is not bad either.

With its wealth based on the abundance of various minerals, its ranking is now approaching Qingning City.

The main purpose of Xia Ling and the other two coming out this time was to purchase some special minerals that could be used to make magical weapons.

In order not to attract attention, they kept a low profile this time.

Lin Xingfan and Xia Ling took the disguise pill.

But the Disguise Pill couldn’t change eye color, so Jiang Ci simply covered his eyes with white gauze.

Although there were still pedestrians looking at me along the way, there were not many.

At this moment, the three of them were in the largest black market in the city.

There are many stalls inside, with a wide variety of goods on display. In the center is a gambling stone field and auction house.

Xia Ling glanced around and saw various minerals of different sizes and colors displayed in the shops, but most of them were raw stones that had not yet been cut.

"Fourth Brother, does the light covering the raw stones represent their properties?" Xia Ling discovered that these raw stones were more or less surrounded by a layer of light-colored halo.

But some parts are bleak.

Jiang Ci paused, "You can see it too?"

Xia Ling nodded, "Yeah, what's wrong?"

"...It's okay." Jiang Ci concealed his surprise and lowered his voice: "Go with Lin Xingfan to buy the raw stones with the brightest light. Remember, don't tell anyone that you can see that circle of light."

"Okay." Seeing his abnormal attitude, Xia Ling vaguely realized that something was wrong, but tactfully said nothing more. "Fourth Senior Brother, are you going somewhere else?"

He probably meant that he would not be with them.

"Yeah." Jiang Ci replied calmly, "I'm going to the gambling stone field. We'll meet here in half an hour."

"Got it." Xia Ling watched him leave.

Lin Xingfan, who was walking in the front, saw that the two people were slow to catch up, so he turned back.

Seeing Xia Ling staying there alone, he scratched his head and said, "Junior sister, where is the fourth senior brother?"

Xia Ling told him everything: "He went to the gambling stone field and asked us to pick out some uncut stones from these stalls and buy them back. He said we should meet here in half an hour."

"Oh, then let's go for a walk." Lin Xingfan didn't care much. After all, he and Jiang Ci came here separately before and only met up at the end.

Xia Ling: "Okay."

The two walked forward a short distance before they saw a group of people gathered in front of a stall.

There seemed to be faint sounds of quarreling coming from inside.

To be precise, it was a one-sided quarrel.

"Jiang Sumu, don't think you can do whatever you want just because you are the eldest daughter of the Jiang family! I want this rough stone today!"

"Okay, I'll give it to you." The cold and pleasant female voice did not carry any emotion, and it was obvious that she didn't care.

"Junior sister, why don't we go and take a look?" Lin Xingfan was very curious.

Xia Ling had just that in mind, "Let's go!"
