Now that you have betrayed the sect, who will still pamper you?.

Chapter 1293 What do you want to borrow?

But his words were so blunt that they were like a thunderclap to the ears of those around him, startling them and prompting cries of surprise:

"What? Jiang Han?!"

"Senior Brother Wang, you lost to Jiang Han, not to Meng Qinghong, so you were beaten like this?"

It is said that Jiang Han is only at the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm. Although he is powerful, he is ultimately a junior who has only cultivated for four years, and his foundation is far inferior to that of Senior Brother Wang.

Back when Senior Brother Wang set off, they had discussed the strength of both sides. As long as the other party could fight Senior Brother Wang to a draw or withstand dozens of moves without being defeated, they would acknowledge the other party's strength.

If we meet again in the future, I will definitely treat him as a senior in the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

But the truth was too astonishing. They thought they had overestimated their opponent, but they never expected that they had still underestimated the sword cultivator.

Forget about a draw. Look at Senior Brother Wang's miserable state, and considering how he fled back in such a sorry state earlier, he was probably almost beaten to death.

The gap in strength between them is so large that it is difficult to overcome.

Sure enough, any reputation that can be spread is not earned for nothing. This young swordsman is probably much stronger than they imagined.

"Meng Qinghong, my foot! Jiang Han alone almost got me killed. If I run into Meng Qinghong again, you might not be seeing me today."

Wang Yanshi muttered something, then scratched his head somewhat awkwardly and said to Gu Chenyin:

"Senior Brother Gu, actually, I came here this time to borrow some treasures from you."

"Hmm? Borrow the treasure?"

Gu Chenyin felt that these words sounded very familiar, just like the kind of words that assassins in storybooks often said.

In the next sentence, is the junior brother going to say that he borrowed someone else's head for a short time?

He chuckled and asked, "So, what do you want to borrow?"

Now that he had already started, Wang Yanshi decided to speak freely:

"Senior brother should have heard of Jiang Han's rules for fighting. After losing this battle, Jiang Han took all my puppets and magic weapons."

Fortunately, he had promised me beforehand that I could bring my treasure to exchange for it with him, so I thought I'd borrow some spirit crystals and precious materials from Senior Brother Gu to redeem the puppet..."

This was the first time in his life that he had ever asked someone to borrow so many treasures. The number of treasures that could be exchanged for his puppet magic weapon was terrifying, enough to empty the coffers of a small or medium-sized sect.

Gu Chenyin chuckled softly: "Thank goodness, it wasn't about borrowing someone's head."

"Huh? What head?"

Wang Yanshi wondered if his ears had been damaged. Who would dare to ask Senior Brother Gu for a head? That would be courting death!

"nothing."

Gu Chenyin shook her head, realizing she had really gone crazy from reading so much. She composed herself and said:

"Jiang Han hasn't received support from the Sword Sect yet, so he's indeed short of resources. Hmm... has he said what he specifically wants?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Yanshi's expression immediately turned strange: "There really is."

He looked around nervously and excitedly, took a half-step forward, raised his eyebrows, and lowered his voice:

"Fellow Daoist Jiang said he wants the true spirit essence of the Purple Thunder Scale."

Upon hearing this, the hall fell into a deathly silence. Even the faint tinkling of the bells at Gu Chenyin's waist vanished instantly. After a long while, a collective gasp of astonishment rippled through the room.

"Holy crap... the true spirit essence of the Purple Thunder Scale?! This Fellow Daoist Jiang is truly arrogant, even more arrogant than Jun Linyuan!"

"The Purple Thunder Kirin is a contracted spirit pet that shares a life-and-death bond with Jun Linyuan. Does his statement mean he wants Jun Linyuan dead?"

"This kid has ambition. He only picks the biggest trouble he can find. He really has the potential to be a great man."

Everyone was amazed, but they didn't think it was possible for the plan to succeed. There was no need to even think about it; it was definitely not going to work.

Regardless of Jun Linyuan's own cultivation level, if he were to use the Beast Taming Possession technique, he could break through his cultivation level in a short time and reach the peak of the Nascent Soul stage.

At that level, even the other disciples who were also his direct disciples didn't dare to fight him. How could Jiang Han dare to have such thoughts?

Most of them felt that Jiang Han was too arrogant, saying such things in public was an attempt to provoke Jun Linyuan into fighting him.

It's good to be young, you're not afraid of death.

Gu Chenyin was also slightly startled, but he quickly recovered, and a hint of appreciation appeared on his slightly pale face:

"As expected of him, his courage is truly astonishing..."

"However, Fellow Daoist Jiang may have just said it casually. You should just listen and not spread it around."

Everyone agreed, and he continued:

"Fellow Daoist Jiang wants the True Spirit Essence, presumably for refining a magic weapon. We don't have the Purple Extreme Thunder Scale, but we do have some materials for refining weapons."

After a moment's thought, he instructed, "Qinghe, go and organize the materials you have on hand, and bring back the four related materials: thunder, wood, wind, and sword."

These four types are all materials that Jiang Han needs, and they should satisfy him.

"You're really giving it to us? We worked so hard to get that."

Qinghe was a young cultivator standing at the door, with the cultivation level of the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm. He seemed to know what Gu Chenyin was talking about, and his tone was full of reluctance.

Those are treasures they risked their lives to search for and obtain these past few days, and they went to great lengths to acquire them. Even if their senior brother only mentioned magic materials, he can't just give them away like that.

Gu Chenyin didn't say much, but just glanced at him. Qinghe quickly shut up, bowed, and left.

Seeing this, Wang Yanshi thanked him with delight: "Thank you very much, Senior Brother Gu! I will definitely repay you with interest after I return to the Spirit Realm!"

Gu Chenyin nodded, about to speak, but suddenly looked up at the door, her eyes flickered a few times, and she couldn't help but laugh:

"Your timing is quite good. You can go ahead, but after the transaction is completed, please ask him to come and meet me."

As soon as the words were spoken, everyone was puzzled when they suddenly felt two sword intents rapidly approaching without any attempt to conceal their power. They were clearly not to be trifled with.

"As expected, Jiang Han has caught up with us!"

Wang Yanshi was still shaken. Judging from the way they were chasing him, they definitely weren't there to have tea and chat; they were more likely there to cause trouble.

If he hadn't sensed danger halfway there and decisively fled, he probably would have been caught and killed.

Tsk, what a ruthless brat. It was just a friendly spar, yet he wanted to take someone's life.

Wang Yanshi breathed a sigh of relief and bowed to Gu Chenyin: "Senior brother, please wait a moment, I will go and speak with him."

Gu Chenyin nodded, and the group bowed and withdrew, filing out of the pavilion one after another, lining up to look at the horizon.

There, two sword lights, one blue and one green, were rapidly approaching, stirring up terrifying shockwaves that cleaved the sky in two.

After only one glance, Wang Yanshi solemnly instructed:

"Gentlemen, I will be in charge of everything from now on, so please do not speak carelessly."

That kid is ruthless and merciless when he gets down to business. He'll resort to violence at the slightest provocation. If anyone says something wrong and angers him, I won't be able to stop him.

Everyone nodded in agreement: "Don't worry, Senior Brother Wang, we're just going to take a look. We wouldn't dare to provoke such a madman."

Are you kidding me? They're not stupid. Even Senior Brother Wang was beaten up like this, so how could they dare to provoke him?

They're not young people; they're not timid and want to live a few more days.

Wang Yanshi was relieved, but after taking two steps, he suddenly realized something, frowned, and asked:

"Where's Chen Zhou? I haven't seen him."

Someone replied, "Senior Brother Chen is still in seclusion and hasn't come out these past few days. He must be making great progress."

Wang Yanshi breathed a sigh of relief. Chen Zhou came from such a privileged background that he always thought he was the most important person in the world, with Senior Brother Gu being second only to him. He was incredibly arrogant.

He recently managed to obtain a trial inheritance by sheer luck, and now he's even more arrogant, wanting to be number two. If he comes out of seclusion, who knows what kind of trouble he'll cause.

It's best if this kid stays in seclusion, lest he become too arrogant and anger Jiang Han, and then Jiang Han will suffer as a result.
