Cultivating Immortality Begins with Selling Oneself

Chapter 97 Curiosity

The man in black robe for some unknown reason chose to stay and continue watching. Seeing Shen Fuyu's sword skills full of loopholes, the man in black robe felt it was extremely eye-catching.

"What a crappy sword technique! It's so ugly!"

The sudden sound startled Shen Fuyu, and the wooden sword in his hand fell to the ground, and the golden python's tail swung over.

Shen Fuyu was unable to react in time and was hit hard by the tail.

Although the golden giant python was very powerful, it had stayed in the mountains for many years after all, and its spiritual energy was not comparable to Shen Fuyu's.

"puff!"

Shen Fuyu spat out a mouthful of blood and felt a dull pain in his chest. A trace of anger flashed across Shen Fuyu's brows.

But, more of it is contempt.

Shen Fuyu was despising herself. She shouldn't be distracted during a fight. She would rather be more vigilant than be distracted and lose focus. This would only hand her weakness to the enemy and become a weapon for the enemy to hurt her.

"Who is it?" The girl's voice was alert.

Shen Fuyu looked in the direction where the sound came from, but saw only air and no one. Shen Fuyu was immediately confused and became extremely vigilant.

He suppressed the dull pain in his chest and felt Shen Fuyu holding the wooden sword in his hand. The giant golden python was standing next to Shen Fuyu, its pupils full of guilt and heartache. It was all his fault that he didn't hold back and actually hurt Shen Fuyu.

Noticing the change in the golden python's mood, Shen Fuyu gave it a soothing look. It was not Xiao Huang's fault.

"Tsk tsk tsk." A man in a black robe, with only a pair of eyes exposed, suddenly appeared from the air.

"You are quite an interesting little girl."

The black-robed man's exposed eyes were filled with interest. He had never seen such a strange little girl in all these years.

How did a rookie at such a young age attract the golden python?
Could it be that he has some magic weapon given by his family elders?

The man in black robe narrowed his eyes threateningly and looked Shen Fuyu up and down. No, there was no aura of magic weapon. Shen Fuyu was just a rookie, and a particularly poor rookie.

He didn't even have the lowest-level spiritual sword, so he could only use a wooden sword.

The disgust in the black-robed man's eyes was so strong that it almost overflowed.

Shen Fuyu: "..."

Even though Shen Fuyu knew that his own strength was not enough, he couldn't help but feel a little dissatisfied because of the look in the black-robed man's eyes.

Maybe it’s because my physical age is younger and my mental age is gradually matching my physical age.

I glanced at the light green favorability indicator above the black-robed man’s head.

Knowing that the man in black robe had no intention of hurting her for the time being, Shen Fuyu breathed a sigh of relief.

The strength of the person in front of him was unfathomable. If the man in black robe wanted to attack, Shen Fuyu was worried that even the golden python would not be his match.

Shen Fuyu pouted and said dissatisfiedly, "Everyone started as a rookie and worked their way up step by step. I believe that as long as I work hard enough, I can become like you sooner or later."

"Ha, you are quite arrogant. You think you can become like me with your lousy swordsmanship?" The man in black robe scratched his ears, as if he heard a joke, and laughed while holding his stomach.

Shen Fuyu: "..."

The fist is hard.

Shen Fuyu took a deep breath and resisted the urge to beat up the man in black robe.

Can't afford to offend, can't beat, calm down!

Shen Fuyu said with a forced smile, "You old man are quite arrogant."

"As the saying goes, all talk is empty talk. If you have the guts, show me what you can do. Stop talking big here."

Shen Fuyu used words to motivate him.

The man in black robe knew Shen Fuyu's little thoughts, but still couldn't withstand this move.

He raised his chin, his tone filled with pride, "It's okay for now, but you have to tell me why the golden python listens to you so much." The man in black robe had lived for so many years, and this was the first time he had seen such a novel scene. He really wanted to know the reason.

Shen Fuyu's eyes twinkled, "Maybe it's because I'm loved by everyone and flowers bloom wherever I see them."

"Old man, let me tell you the truth. Ever since I was little, I've always been particularly loved by animals. It might be innate, brought from the womb."

"If you want to have my kind of blessing, I can only say, wait for the next life."

"Hey, you little girl!"

The man in black robe laughed in anger, his face changed instantly, he flashed in front of Shen Fuyu and grabbed Shen Fuyu's neck fiercely.

"Grandpa, I was wrong." Shen Fuyu took a deep breath, put on a flattering smile, and shamelessly admitted his mistake.

No morals at all.

The man in black robe was happy again.

This little girl is quite interesting. She admits her mistake so quickly.

"Then tell me why?" The man in black robe felt uncomfortable.

I just want to know why.

Animals like this that live in the deep mountains have never been polluted and have a subtle sense of intelligence.

Has a deep dislike for humans.

When he met a little girl like Shen Fuyu, he should have tried every means to swallow Shen Fuyu into his stomach. How could he possibly rush to please her?
Even after seeing it with his own eyes, the man in black robe refused to believe it, firmly believing that Shen Fuyu must have used shady means.

"Show me your sword skills first. Show me how powerful you are. You said my sword skills are rubbish."

Shen Fuyu pouted, feeling a little unhappy. No one would be happy if they worked so hard to practice swordsmanship and were called trash by strangers.

In the little girl's stubborn gaze, curiosity overcame anger, and the black-robed man chose to compromise, "Just watch."

The man in black robe scolded and took Shen Fuyu's wooden sword.

The ordinary wooden sword looked like a divine weapon in the hands of the man in black robe. He was full of spiritual energy and his movements were smooth and beautiful.

They looked soft and harmless, but in fact, they were all stretched out to waist level in the direction pointed by the sword without exception.

The moment the man in black robe got the wooden sword, his whole temperament seemed to have changed, and he was as sharp as a sword just out of its sheath.

Shen Fuyu was stunned, her expression was extremely complicated. Compared with the man in black robe, her swordsmanship was indeed rubbish.

After performing a set of sword techniques, Shen Fuyu was unable to recover for a long time. He tried hard to remember the movements of the man in black robe, with a mysterious smile on his lips.

The black-robed man rolled his eyes and said, "Little girl, can you tell me now?"

However, Shen Fuyu was immersed in his own thoughts and ignored him.

The man in black robe snapped his fingers, and Shen Fuyu came back to his senses.

"Because I'm smart."

As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Fuyu took the wooden sword from the black-robed man and, based on the impression in his mind, learned the sword technique that the black-robed man had just demonstrated perfectly.

A burst of sword energy was outlined in the direction of the sword tip.

Leaving shallow traces in the cave.

It was a very inconspicuous white mark, but Shen Fuyu was at the second level of Qi Refining!

The most important thing is, Shen Fuyu can learn such a complicated sword technique after just watching it once?
The man in black robe had no doubt that Shen Fuyu had seen this sword technique before, because this sword technique was created by the man in black robe himself.

"Show it to me again." The man in black robe widened his eyes.

He didn't believe it. The little girl had only watched it once, how could she possibly learn it?
