Chapter 48 Awkwardness

The Silver Dome Lord struggled violently, its feathers transforming into sharp blades. With each struggle, countless blades sliced ​​through the Xuan Snake's body, producing a sound like a cat scratching glass with its claws, sending chills down one's spine.

Clearly, it hadn't pierced the Xuan Snake's body. The Silver Sky Lord, feeling his life force rapidly draining away, finally began to fight desperately.

The feathers were stained with traces of blood, until the whole body looked as if it had just crawled out of a pool of blood. If the previous white feathers were like a blunt knife that had not been sharpened, then the blood-colored feathers were like a divine weapon that was rarely seen in five thousand years.

As it struggled again, it was clear that the black snake had been cut open, but the black snake held on to its throat tightly and refused to let go.

Zhang Chen felt a little embarrassed. Could it be that it wasn't willing to agree because of the sacred tree opportunity I mentioned?

Zhang Chen felt Tang Yue's resentful gaze from the side and didn't dare to turn his head.

Finally, with a mournful cry from the Silver Dome Lord, it completely lost its breath. The Black Serpent roared with ferocity, its voice no longer resembling that of a serpent, but rather like that of a dragon.

Covered in blood, it dragged the Silver Sky Lord back, its jaws snapping shut. Seeing the approaching Xuan Snake, Zhang Chen quickly took out the Sacred Tree, afraid it might upset him and eat him.

Upon seeing the Sacred Tree, the Black Serpent immediately tossed the Silver Sky Lord aside and burrowed inside.

Zhang Chen didn't dare look at Tang Yue at all, and turned to Zhu Meng, saying, "This was given to me by the Black Serpent! So it's mine, right?"

Zhang Chen naturally wouldn't take the corpses of those demons outside the city. Although they were killed by the Xuan Snake, he would leave them to the frontline guards protecting the city. Besides, the harvest this time was already overwhelming; too much of a good thing would be bad.

Zhu Meng laughed and said, "Of course! We're not shameless people!"

"oh."

Zhang Chen didn't directly use the sacred tree to absorb the energy, as there were other people around. Instead, he looked around excitedly, like a villager seeing something new in the city for the first time, so as not to arouse suspicion.

After expressing his gratitude and apologies to Tang Yue again, Zhu Meng left immediately, as he still had a lot of mess to clean up!

"Zhang Chen!" Tang Yue's expression changed immediately after Zhu Meng left, and she raised her fist and started punching Zhang Chen hard.

Although this felt like a tickle to Zhang Chen, he still pretended to be in great pain and said, "Teacher Tang Yue, I promise I won't do it again! Stop! Stop! Ouch!"

"Hmph! If you dare to fool everyone again, I'll beat you to death!" Tang Yue clenched her fist and gestured in front of Zhang Chen, then snorted coldly and headed back to the courtroom.

After taking two steps, as if remembering something, he said, "Come to the trial tomorrow; I have something for you."

Oh? There's more good stuff.

Zhang Chen's thinking was very simple. After everyone had completely left, Zhang Chen immediately called Mo Fan over, as he had not yet bought the Soul Vessel.

After he arrived, he used the Sacred Tree to drain the flesh and blood of the Silver Dome Lord, and had Mo Fan store the essence in the little mudfish. Then he threw all the materials from the Silver Dome Lord's body into his personal space.

"What other good stuff do you have this time? Hurry up and share it. I didn't get a single thing with Lingling. Teacher Tang Yue said the snake skin is also in your hands." Mo Fan was already rubbing his hands, waiting for Zhang Chen's good stuff. "That's all. Just this Xuan Snake skin and the corpse of the Silver Sky Lord, but its feathers are enough for each of us to have a Winged Magic Tool! And the Xuan Snake's molted skin can make a set of Armor Magic Tool for each of us."

"Isn't that like having god-tier gear right from the start?!"

The next day at the trial, Zhang Chen looked at the smiling members of the trial committee and said, "Hey, why are you all so happy at the trial today?" Tang Yue said, "Don't you know? The plague in the city was solved by a magistrate from the Ministry of Defense. I think his name is Wang Xiaojun?" Tang Yue continued, "Alright, alright, go in. Someone will give you—" Tang Yue gave Zhang Chen a knowing look. Zhang Chen was completely confused. What? Why didn't she finish her sentence? Whatever, it should be something good.

Zhang Chen pushed the door open and entered, and Tang Yue thoughtfully closed the door from the outside.

Inside the room sat an old woman with gray hair and indelible wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, yet her eyes were unusually clear.

Seeing Zhang Chen's enthusiastic invitation to sit down, she pulled him aside and said, "Young man, this isn't right. How can you let a woman do this for you?"

"What are you talking about? I don't understand." Zhang Chen looked puzzled. "Hey, young man, stop pretending. Tang Yue has already told me everything. I'm an old woman, long past my prime. I've seen this kind of thing a lot. I won't laugh at you."

Zhang Chen actually saw a lewd expression on the old woman's face. "What are you talking about?" Zhang Chen felt something was wrong. "Hmph! Still playing dumb! Take your pants off! Don't make me do it!" Seeing that Zhang Chen was still pretending to be stupid, she snorted coldly and stopped smiling.

"What! Have you misunderstood something?" Zhang Chen said. "I think you're going to refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit! Tang Yue specifically told me that I could use force!" As she spoke, bursts of lightning crackled around her. She was actually a super-level mage?

"Then tell me what you need to do first! I really don't know."

Zhang Chen wanted to release the Xuan Snake now, but it seemed the old woman really didn't know. She said, "Aren't you impotent? My high-level magic can heal you."

"What do you mean, 'can't'? I can!" Zhang Chen sensed something was wrong. The old woman's gaze shifted downwards. "I'm perfectly fine. I won't bother you any longer. I'm leaving." Zhang Chen turned to run away. "Hmph!"

Several streaks of azure lightning climbed up Zhang Chen's body, and he immediately collapsed to the ground. "I still have to use force! Why is the young man so stubborn?" With that, the old woman walked up to Zhang Chen, squatted down, and pulled down his pants. After Zhang Chen came out, he glanced speechlessly at Tang Yue, who was secretly laughing at the door, and left.

The old woman walked out looking embarrassed, and before she could speak, Tang Yue asked, "Auntie, is he cured?"

"Um, Tang Yue, he's not sick," the old woman said. "Not sick!" Tang Yue was clearly very surprised. "Hmm! He's quite normal, or rather, much better than a normal person." The old woman said carefully. "Then, how is he—" Tang Yue couldn't believe it. The old woman smiled lewdly, patted Tang Yue's shoulder, and left.

On the other side, Zhang Chen and Mo Fan had already boarded a vehicle to return to Shanghai, eager to leave this shameful place as soon as possible.

"Why are you in such a hurry! Didn't Teacher Tang Yue send you to the trial?" Mo Fan asked suspiciously. "It's nothing! Just learning how to use the healing system," Zhang Chen replied without giving himself away. Mo Fan looked at Zhang Chen suspiciously: "Really?"

"real!"

After the Sacred Tree absorbed the Silver Dome Lord's energy, it generated a massive amount of feedback. Now, Zhang Chen feels there's no need to plant anything else.

Species.

The power amplification from his Holy Tree has doubled, and his cultivation speed has more than tripled. Moreover, if he enters the Three-Step Tower again after returning, he can push one of his systems to a higher level by relying on the feedback.

He can go hunt monsters in the wild and sell the materials he makes. With the money he earns, plus the money he made in the desolate city, he should be able to buy another Star River Vein.

Zhang Chen planned to check the market price for monarch-level demon materials first.

In Shanghai, the two of them didn't know anyone who crafted magical tools at Mingzhu Academy, so they went straight back to the academy to find Dean Xiao to collect their Three-Step Tower training time.

"You're finally back! Anyone who didn't know better would think you weren't students of Pearl Academy! You probably spend less than half your time outside the academy!"
