Chapter 541: Splitting It Evenly
Ning Shu didnt know what Liu Qinyang said to the others, but they stopped bothering her and mostly just ignored her.
The main issue was that they couldnt accept this reality. The person that they had always viewed as weak was now more impressive than them and they even had to rely on this person. They were the most respected disciples of Heavenly Law Sect, but now they had to stay together with trash. It was natural that their att.i.tudes remained lofty and for them to feel that Wei Liangyue should wors.h.i.+p them.
Even though the current Wei Liangyue was obviously strong, the idea that he was useless trash was already deeply rooted in their minds, so they found it humiliating to have to stay with him.
Ning Shu observed these disciples, then came to the conclusion that Liu Qinyang was probably the most schemeful. He had a round and amiable face and his att.i.tude was especially decent when he wanted help from someone. The other three disciples were always unyieldingly proud and rarely spoke to her, but Liu Qinyang was completely different and sounded very sincere when he spoke.
If it werent for the fact that she didnt have a map to the palace, she wouldnt have chosen to travel with these people either.
The only map she had was the one Old Man Wei had given her. It didnt mark any trace of the palace at all. Old Man Wei clearly understood his own sons ability very well and the idea of having his son fight to s.n.a.t.c.h the celestial residence probably hadnt occurred to him even in his dreams.
As they headed towards the palace, they collected all the spirit herbs and fruits that they encountered on the way. Whenever they encountered something good, they would exclude Ning Shu. However, most natural treasures were guarded by spirit beasts.
When these people couldnt beat the spirit beasts, theyd immediately dig out some spirit fruits and give them to Ning Shu, saying that they were splitting it evenly.
Ning Shu rolled her eyes. These people were seriously unreasonable. They wanted help, but at the same time they kept their guard up against the very person they wanted help from. If they were able to beat the spirit beast, they wouldnt split the loot with her. If they found that they couldnt win, theyd immediately split some with Ning Shu so that she would help them beat the spirit beast.
They clearly didnt treat her an equal.
Ning Shu took the spirit fruit Liu Qinyang offered and placed it in her storage pouch before curling her hand into a fist and punching the snake-like spirit beast. This spirit beast had very high defensive power. The others had already fought it for a long time, but they still hadnt been able to kill it.
Ning Shu felt like she had just punched a tire. The snake wasnt injured at all, so she pulled out her sword and gathered her strength to stab the sword into the enormous snakes head. She revolved her energy to continue slas.h.i.+ng forward and cut the enormous snake apart from head to tail. As its snow-white flesh came into view, blood splurt everywhere, filling the air with a terrible stench.
The snake was sliced cleanly into two halves. At this time, the lightning wind eagle swooped down and grabbed the snake with its claws. It was clearly claiming this snake as food.
Bleurgh The two female disciples couldnt stand this scene nor this stench and started vomiting.
The two male disciple looked towards Ning Shu in alarm. Was this really the useless trash that they had known? How was he so strong? They hadnt been able to get through this snakes defense even when they had been working together, but Wei Liangyue had been able to cut the snake apart like he was slicing through a sheet of paper.
They didnt see him use primordial energy either. Could it be that it was really all physical strength?
Ning Shu wiped the blood off her sword before placing it back into her storage pouch.
