Be the Hardest Working Demon Cultivator!

Chapter 106: 93. Is it so popular these days to practice both swordsmanship and alchemy?_2

"Donkeys aren't dumb, they're just stubborn," Tan Shuchang shook his head.

"Uncle Master, Uncle Master, Senior Sister isn't dumb at all!" The two youths couldn't help but defend the girl in red.

"You are calling him Uncle Master?" The girl in red widened her eyes in disbelief, as her own Uncle Master spoke in favor of an outsider, which was simply preposterous! She definitely planned to complain when she got back.

"Which Uncle Master is this?" The girl in red hurriedly asked.

"Uncle Master's companion sword is the Silent Spirit Sword," the two boys quickly responded.

"So it's Uncle Master of Elder Kumu's sect, Disciple Hong Yan, I have seen Uncle Master!" Now the girl in red knew whom to complain to.

Meanwhile, the young Sword Cultivator's mouth twitched uncontrollably upon hearing this exchange, knowing full well who the person in front of him was. However, at the same time, he also felt puzzled about how the premium flying sword of the Disciple-Beheading Sword Mountain had ended up in Tan Shuchang's hands.

Being of the same Sword Cultivator's holy land, although his expertise was the Wolf Fang Club, he was well aware of the techniques to cultivate the spirit of flying swords at Disciple-Beheading Sword Mountain; unless the original owner willingly gifted them, no outsider could use them even if they obtained them, as they would merely serve as firewood sticks.

That was the reason why Tan Shuchang had not used any of the premium flying swords he had obtained previously.

"The little girl is quite polite," At that moment, Tan Shuchang smiled, neither confirming nor denying his title of Uncle Master.

Then, he said, "You all likely think you haven't done anything wrong, and your spirit of acting on behalf of justice is commendable. Too many people in this world dare to speak of moral righteousness but lack the courage to act. Just in this regard, you are better than many.

Now, if you feel unconvinced, why don't you investigate that old man's background, and also look into that young man's background, what do you say? If you do this well, I have a copy of the Sevenfold Demonic Body Scripture annotated thoroughly, which could be your reward."

"A cultivation technique?" Hong Yan was taken aback, she had thought it would be a guide to swordsmanship.

"Senior Sister, I have heard of the Sevenfold Demonic Body Scripture; it's the signature demonic technique of the Heartless Old Man, also practiced by that demonic fellow Tan Shuchang. There must be something beneficial within.

Uncle Master giving us this item as a reward probably means he wants us to learn to integrate strengths and familiarize ourselves with demonic methods," Without waiting for Tan Shuchang to make up an excuse, the two youths had already found a justification for him.

And this justification was perfectly suitable.

"Yes!"

This justification also persuaded the stubborn red-clothed girl Hong Yan, who immediately took her two junior brothers to investigate the backgrounds of the old man and the young man.

Once they had left, the young Sword Cultivator couldn't hold back his laughter anymore.

"Tan Uncle Master from Disciple-Beheading Sword Mountain, I have long heard of you!" the Sword Cultivator repeated exaggeratedly.

"So Disciple-Beheading Sword Mountain only recognizes swords and not people, this is also news to me," Tan Shuchang waved his hand, and the Silent Spirit Sword manifested from his palm.

And in the instant after Tan Shuchang's words fell, a bottle of elixirs manifested from the void and then steadily landed on the stone table where the three were seated.

The "Shadow Retaining Immortal Secret Tome" when fully mastered creates black shadows that can travel to any shadowed place, covering distances in an instant, mysterious beyond measure.

Though Tan Shuchang mastered the "Cross Calamity Immortal Scripture," his Calamity Witnessing Sword Qi did not possess this characteristic. However, as long as it was within the range of Tan Shuchang's perception, and if unobstructed, he could easily relocate any item, incredibly mysterious.

At this moment, the slight display of this skill by Tan Shuchang caused Nangong Yishuang's expression to change subtly, especially the name "Tan Shuchang," which made the beautiful cultivator's complexion turn somewhat pale.

In less than four years of cultivation, defeating elders of Disciple-Beheading Sword Mountain and creating the unprecedented "Cross Calamity Immortal Scripture," such characters were both admirable and terrifying.

Yi Qingqing, as the weakest cultivator among them, initially did not know what had happened, but hearing Tan Shuchang's voice, she immediately became happy.

Most people possess the psychology of admiring the strong, and little girls are no different; unlike her master, she did not fear Tan Shuchang, but rather admired him.

And liked that Tan Shuchang always appeared to be speaking gently.

"Master Nangong, please don't worry, he's just passing by."

Having said that, Dongdong got up and walked out.

"Thank you, Niece Dongdong!" Nangong Yishuang, seeing Dongdong taking a stance, finally felt relieved, and quickly expressed her thanks.

Dongdong left Nangong Yishuang's cultivation spot in a few steps, then saw her uncle, laughing and talking with Tan Shuchang.

And they were just happened to be discussing her.

"Friend Tan, you asked me why I always follow her whenever she goes out? Well, that's a long story. She ran away for three years, right? Then as soon as she came back, her parents confined her, insisting she mustn't leave the eyesight of Dong family members. But how could that hold her? Every time she leaves, she insists I accompany her."

"I see," Tan Shuchang nodded.

Dongdong: "..."

For some reason, even though the conversation was quite normal, she always felt that something was off.

So she stepped forward and stood in front of Tan Shuchang.

As the shadow of the young girl fell on her own face, Tan Shuchang smiled and greeted, "Sister Dongdong, time for a visit?"

"Yes," Dongdong said stoically, then asked, "Are you here to visit too?"

"I came to seek her help with alchemy," Tan Shuchang explained his purpose.

"Alchemy?" Dongdong looked at Tan Shuchang expressionlessly, then without hesitation, said, "I can do it too. I'll help you."
