Chapter 79: Evil-Dispelling Spell
At this moment, Young Hero Chu Liang was astonished too.
He had previously witnessed the tremendous increase in power when the Hundred Swords Seal transformed into the Ten Thousand Swords Seal, so he had been somewhat prepared to see yet another immense amplification in power when he used the Crimson Executioner this time. However, using it with the Dual Talismanic Sword of Ice and Fire did not result in an increase in quantity but an explosive boost in quality, shocking those who saw it in a totally different way.
Shing.
He withdrew the Crimson Executioner, which had accomplished its task. Looking at its simple, unadorned blade, he felt even more in awe of it. It seemed that the degree to which this righteous sword detested evil far surpassed what he'd thought.
It's such a pity that the sword can't always maintain this level of power. Otherwise...
The possibilities he envisioned were absolutely breathtaking.
After a while, Chu Liang collected his thoughts and checked the massive corpse.
Unfortunately, the giant turtle's corpse was severely damaged, including its sturdy shell. The unstoppable Talismanic Sword Seal had cracked the shell all over. There was no value in salvaging it.
This was an aspect in which monsters were completely incomparable to cultivators; monsters didn't possess much of value that Chu Liang could take.
Fortunately for Chu Liang, he had the White Pagoda. He had just collected a golden phantom, so he believed that he could refine a pretty good reward later. Read latest chapters at novelhall.com Only
Purely in terms of cultivation level, this old turtle seemed to be inferior to the giant lizard and the Tiger King Chu Liang had encountered in the past. Nevertheless, that didn't mean he couldn't receive a better reward for killing the old turtle.
Because...
Chu Liang shifted his gaze to the large zongzi and grinned.
He walked over to it and performed a hand seal to release the zongzi filling, Liu Xiaoyu'er, from the zongzi. As the little girl stood up, she looked at the giant turtle with a rather confused expression.
"Miss Xiaoyu'er, that giant turtle was trying to devour you, but I saved you," Chu Liang said.
"Ah..." Liu Xiaoyu'er let out a startled gasp. "Thank you."
"He refused to give up on his evil intentions, so I killed him to completely eliminate any future danger he might have placed you in," Chu Liang added.
"Ah..." the little girl gasped again. Then she said, "You are really a good person."
"So, shouldn't you repay me a little?" Chu Liang continued to coax her.
Obviously, just playing the part of a good person wouldn't reap any benefits.
"Eh?" Liu Xiaoyu'er tilted her head. "What do you want from me?"
"I want you to..." Chu Liang said with a smile, "close your eyes and silently wish that my wishes will come true."
"Huh?"
Liu Xiaoyu'er had no idea what was going on. This was probably her first time ever hearing such a strange request.
Upon hearing Chu Liang's explanation, Lin Bei no longer suspected anything.
He had only learned two days ago that Chu Liang had just reached the later stage of the Spiritual Awareness Realm, yet the level of power Chu Liang had demonstrated was far beyond his current cultivation level. So, even if Chu Liang were to claim that power as his own, Lin Bei wouldn't believe him.
As for why Chu Liang had so many life-saving treasures, Lin Bei thought there was an easy answer for that.
After all, wasn't Chu Liang the only disciple of Silver Sword Peak? On the other hand, Lin Bei's peak, Jade Sword Peak, had many disciples, so each person received fairly limited resources. So, it wasn't baffling at all to Lin Bei that Chu Liang, the sole disciple of Silver Sword Peak, was incredibly wealthy.
Lin Bei couldn't help but feel a bit envious of Chu Liang.
It must be so nice being a disciple of Silver Sword Peak.
If Chu Liang knew what Lin Bei was thinking, he would probably want to weep.
After chatting with Chu Liang for a while, Lin Bei turned to look at Liu Xiaoyu'er and asked, "Little Sister Xiaoyu'er, are you all right?"
Liu Xiaoyu'er pouted and replied, "I'm hungry."
"Heheheh. Let's go eat something yummy," Lin Bei said while laughing and beckoning with his hand.
The three of them headed out to eat. As for the headache of how to clean up the courtyard, they naturally left it to the Li Family Estate's people to deal with.
Once the food was ready, the three of them sat in a large hall to have their meal. Lin Bei and Liu Xiaoyu'er were focused on eating, occasionally exchanging a few words of conversation.
Chu Liang was the only one who seemed preoccupied. His thoughts were entirely focused on his newly acquired Evil-Dispelling Spell.
What would this weird divine skill be like in action? Is it really that effective?
Unable to resist his intense curiosity, Chu Liang looked at Lin Bei, who was enjoying his meal, and called out to him, "Hey."
"Hmm?" Lin Bei uttered, raising his head.
Suddenly, Chu Liang reached out and overturned Lin Bei's bowl, chopsticks, and food with lightning speed, sending them clattering onto the floor in a mess of fragments.
"What are you doing?" Lin Bei questioned.
He was startled and very confused. There was also anger showing in his gaze.
Chu Liang's other hand stealthily made a move. He cast the Evil-Dispelling Spell!
Swish—
A green halo that was visible only to Chu Liang descended onto Lin Bei's head with a dazzling radiance. The moment the radiance of the green halo covered Lin Bei, the anger in his eyes immediately disappeared.
"Huh..." Lin Bei uttered with furrowed brows, seeming rather confused. He muttered to himself, "Chu Liang suddenly overturned my food for no reason. It made me really angry. But he's my good friend. There must be a special reason why he did that, right?
"Of course, I'll forgive him."
