Chapter 246: Heh, Female Cultivator
Chapter 246: Heh, Female Cultivator
“Did you …… you move something on the green jade branch?!”
Hearing the clear cracking sound coming from the jade branch, the gloomy youth’s face instantly turned white with horror.
This third-grade green jade branch was handed over to him by a Foundation Establishment cultivator, and if he couldn’t return the object to its original owner, then he would have a great responsibility.
“Senior nephew, this cannot be said casually.”
“It’s clearly the Hidden Wood Worm in the Green Jade Branch that is constantly seizing the vitality of the spirit plant, so how can you blame it on my head?”
A trace of indifference flashed from the depths of the corner of his eyes as Lu Xuan calmly said.
“But the cracks were barely visible just now, and after going through your hands, they became so much bigger all of a sudden.”
“It must be you, it must be you ……”
The gloomy youth muttered.
After losing a rare and uncommon Third Grade Spiritual Plant in such a way, he was afraid that the Foundation Establishment Cultivator behind the scene would be angry with him, and subconsciously tried to shift the blame to Lu Xuan.
“How dare you!”
Lu Xuan became furious, and a powerful spirit pressure spread out in all directions.
“Is this the attitude that you, an outer disciple, should have towards a Foundation Establishment senior?”
“I’ve already made it clear to you that the reason why this green jade branch ruptured is because of the Cryptic Woodworm parasitizing within it.”
“The Cryptic Wood Worm is constantly seizing the vitality of the spirit plant, and having just ruptured just a little bit, will it always remain that little bit?”
Lu Xuan coldly questioned the gloomy youth.
“But clearly …… clearly ……”
The gloomy youth was about to say something, when his eyes swept over and saw Lu Xuan, who was not angry and authoritative, as well as the dozens of people seated under the field, and the words that had reached his throat were swallowed back again.
He had wanted to say the fact that the Spirit Plant had been intact not long ago, but as the words reached his mouth, he immediately realized that something was wrong.
If he were to tell the truth, then he would be confessing without a fight, and instead he would be falsely accusing the inner disciples.
Damaging the green jade branch could be offset by simply compensating for the value of the spirit plant itself and a little more blood.
But false accusation of inner disciple nature is different, iron will be in charge of the discipline hall take, then, light is confined for many years, heavy is abolished cultivation, expelled from the clan.
Thinking of this, the gloomy youth instantly calmed down a lot.
He kept adjusting his breath, and after a few deep breaths, he finally calmed down.
“I’m sorry, Uncle Lu, the Green Jade Branch is really too precious to me, and the sudden intensification of the rupture made it difficult for me to accept it for a while, and my mind was unbalanced, so please forgive me, Uncle Lu.”
“As for the issue of the Hidden Wood Worm that Senior Uncle mentioned, I wonder if Senior Uncle can find out that worm.”
The gloomy youth still had a hint of luck in his heart, although Lu Xuan had already discovered that the Green Jade Branch lesion was parasitized by the Cryptic Wood Worm within, but discovering it was one thing, drawing it out was another.
In case Lu Xuan was unable to pull out the Cryptic Woodworm, then what he had just said would not stand, and the youth would barely have an explanation in front of the curtain when he returned.
“Yes.”
Lu Xuan saw that he would not shed a tear until he saw the coffin, and levied a first-rate crossbow artifact from the cultivators under the field.
The crossbow body and bowstring were all made of wood magic weapons, which were extremely attractive to Hidden Wood Insects.
He spiritually controlled the crossbow artifact and placed it in front of the green jade branch trunk, and a dense green light rose from the crossbow.
Not long after, in the crowd’s eager anticipation, a tiny green jade branch trunk detached itself and landed on the crossbow, constantly climbing.
The green jade branch trunk, on the other hand, left a small dark hole, the shape and size of the part that fell out of the extreme match.
“This is the Hidden Wood Insect, parasitized within the spirit plant can be integrated with it.”
“This Cryptic Woodworm right now is even more deeply connected to the spiritual plant, so drawing it out will cause further damage to the spiritual plant.”
“Thank you, Senior Uncle.”
With his last glimmer of hope dashed, the gloomy youth’s face was ashen as death as he took the damaged jade branch from Lu Xuan’s hand and picked up the shattered parts from the ground, leaving the main hall with a dull expression. The pace was deep and shallow, as if he was stepping in a cloud.
Lu Xuan didn’t have any compassion for what happened to him.
He had just come over to the Hall of Transmission to teach less than half a day ago, and the person behind the youth had purposely set up such a trap that he had to drill.
If he hadn’t been able to grasp the instant state of the Spiritual Plants and forcefully crack it, then the reputation of the Spiritual Plants Master that he had built up in the sect during this period of time would have been damaged quite a bit as a result.
Although the gloomy youth had been instructed, he had also eaten his own words.
Lu Xuan’s move caused the person behind it to lose a rare spirit plant, and it also allowed the gloomy youth to get the bad karma he deserved.
Well, for nothing, that Cryptic Woodworm had gotten a good meal for nothing.
“Alright, continue with the lesson.”
His eyes swept over the crowd under the field, and the many outer disciples who were still whispering instantly quieted down.
The appearance of the gloomy young cultivator was only considered a small episode, bringing the crowd some gossip after dinner.
After him, some more cultivators went up to the stage and asked Lu Xuan about the various problems they encountered during the process of cultivating spirit plants.
Lu Xuan patiently answered them all.
Only after the one-day course was over did the crowd below the stage reluctantly leave.
Under Lu Xuan’s teaching, they had a whole new understanding of spiritual plants.
“Uncle Lu, I have a great interest in cultivating spirit plants.”
“I wonder if I can help Senior Uncle and tend to the Spirit Plants that he grows?”
“Senior Uncle’s cultivation is hard, and he has to cultivate a large number of spirit plants, so if those low-grade spirit plants are left in my care, I should be able to save a lot of time.”
Before parting, a delicate female cultivator came before Lu Xuan, her head lowered, her head almost buried in her bulging breasts.
“Taking care of the spiritual plants for me?” Lu Xuan’s eyes swept over.
“Yes, I would like to share my worries for Master Uncle, I can get nothing for it, I only wish to learn how to cultivate Spirit Plants by Master Uncle’s side.
In addition, I can usually take care of taking care of Master Uncle’s daily living.”
The delicate female cultivator sensed Lu Xuan’s line of sight and secretly poked her bulging breasts, in a rich and generous manner.
“I appreciate the good intentions of my senior nephew.”
Lu Xuan’s eyes were clear as he blandly returned.
“However, each and every spirit plant in my spirit field was planted by my own hands, condensing my countless efforts.”
“Treating them as if they were my own children, there is naturally no reason to hand over my children to someone else to take care of.”
Lu Xuan flatly refused.
Joking aside, the white light clusters harvested after the spirit plants matured were the foundation of his establishment in the cultivation world, if he were to hand over the care of this delicate female cultivator, although it could be a lot easier, it would also mean that he could no longer receive the additional light cluster rewards.
After all, the degree of one’s own cultivation during the growth of the spirit plant was also one of the important factors affecting the light cluster rewards.
“Alright then… …… If Senior Uncle needs it at any time, he can always look for me.”
The delicate female cultivator saw Lu Xuan’s uninterested look and looked helpless, leaving behind a transmission talisman and turning around to leave.
“To actually try to dye the spirit plants I planted, so that I won’t get the light cluster reward!”
“Heh, a female cultivator, it will only affect the speed of my planting.”
Lu Xuan looked at the female cultivator’s distant figure and snorted coldly in his heart.
