Chapter 345: Getting Rich

"This is a top-grade protective undershirt woven from the silk of the Ancient Moon-Gazing Silkworm!"

A protective undershirt?

Jiang Fan picked up the bellyband and crumpled it in his hand.

It felt cool and soft to the touch, indeed unlike ordinary material.

After a brief thought, he drew out his Mourning Frost Sword and forcefully slashed at it.

The bellyband remained intact, without even a single scratch.

"Huh?" Jiang Fan exclaimed in surprise. "It really is simple."

The Evil Spirit scoffed, "You underestimate the Ancient Moon-Gazing Silkworm. It's an ancient demonic beast of the Demon Emperor level."

"The silk it produces is the best material for defensive treasures."

"Let alone you, even a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator would struggle to break through it."

What?

This bellyband is that extraordinary?

Jiang Fan was greatly astonished.

But then, considering the identity of the Glass Demon Emperor's daughter, it seemed perfectly reasonable.

How could her father feel at ease sending her into human territory without making thorough preparations?

This was women's clothing.

As a grown man, he couldn't wear it.

But he could take it back and give it to Xu Youran or Chen Siling.

So, he unceremoniously tucked it into his embrace.

As he picked up the bellyband, he discovered a lotus-leaf-wrapped parcel underneath.

Opening it, he found a thumb-sized, vibrant red fruit.

At first glance, it looked like a small tomato.

Inside, a red glow swirled, as if containing blood.

"Blood Bodhi?"

The Evil Spirit let out another gasp. "This little demoness really has a lot of good stuff!"

"The Bodhi Pill refined from Blood Bodhi can greatly enhance physical strength. It's an essential item for cultivators in the ninth layer of Core Formation when attempting to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Fan's heart skipped a beat.

Breaking through to the Nascent Soul Realm requires this item to strengthen the body?

Its body-refining effect was undoubtedly incredibly powerful!

Thinking about how much effort he expended just to get a bottle of Poison Dragon Marrow, he knew how precious this Blood Bodhi was.

He had truly stumbled upon a great fortune this time.

He carefully placed it into a jade box, sealed it with several talismans, and then contentedly tucked it into his embrace.

With that, the contents of the cloth bag were completely emptied.

However, he didn't leave immediately.

Instead, he contemplated for a moment, then, with a flick of his hand, he overturned the empty cloth bag, revealing the ground beneath it.

"Huh? There's still something?" the Evil Spirit exclaimed.

Beneath the cloth bag, there was a gleaming longbow!

It was crystal clear throughout, like polished glass.

It emanated an extremely powerful spiritual pressure!

Beside it lay a crystal arrow.

The two intertwined, giving Jiang Fan an extremely dangerous sensation.

It was no less formidable than Xu Qingyang's top-grade magical sword.

The Evil Spirit gasped, "Good heavens! It's a natural top-grade magic treasure!"

"This is a rare and highly sought-after treasure even among Nascent Soul cultivators!"

"Because natural top-grade magic treasures, when handled by human artifact refining masters, can be refined into spirit artifacts!"

"This is a spirit artifact embryo!"

The Evil Spirit felt a hint of envy at Jiang Fan's haul.

If he weren't merely a wisp of a remnant soul and these items useless to him, he would have already moved to seize them.

Jiang Fan grabbed the bow and arrow.

He immediately felt an overwhelming sense of danger.

He couldn't help but show a hint of relief, "Thankfully, the demoness left this bow here."

"Otherwise, if I had fought her, I would have suffered a great loss."

Unless he disregarded exposing his spirit artifact and used the Purple Sword, Jiang Fan couldn't think of any way to deal with this extremely dangerous bow and arrow.

The Evil Spirit looked at the completely emptied treasure trove and clicked its tongue.

"You've plundered her so thoroughly that not even a single hair is left."

"Aren't you afraid she'll fight you to the death?"

He even felt a bit of sympathy for the little demoness.

She had been very clever to place her treasures in two bamboo baskets.

An ordinary person, having obtained the astonishing treasures in the cloth bag, would have been overjoyed beyond measure.

Who would have known that Jiang Fan would meticulously inspect what was beneath the cloth bag, digging out the even more deeply hidden bow and arrow?

Jiang Fan's expression turned serious upon hearing this.

He slung the bow and arrow over his shoulder and decisively made his escape.

If he truly ran into Glass, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Just as Jiang Fan reached the foot of the mountain, two figures sped towards him.

One of them, Jiang Fan recognized, was Lu Shiyi.

Accompanying him was a black-robed cultivator whose face was concealed.

"Shadow Guard One?" Lu Shiyi's expression changed.

He glanced at Pen Holder Mountain, then at Jiang Fan, and said in a deep voice, "What are you doing here?"

Jiang Fan frowned, "I should be asking you. How are you everywhere?"

It was truly strange.

He came here to uncover the demoness's treasure.

Could it be that Lu Shiyi also knew the clue and specifically rushed over?

How could the demoness's hidden treasure become known to everyone?

Lu Shiyi felt a sense of urgency.

He said, "You are not allowed to leave. Stand here and wait for us."

He was indeed here to find treasure.

Although that top-grade magical sword had been taken by Leng Gu, the sword still bore the aura of the Righteous Thunder Sect.

After learning of Glass's identity as the Demon Emperor's daughter, he suspected that the sword might have fallen into Glass's hands.

Upon careful sensing, he indeed detected the thunderous aura of the top-grade magical sword.

He decisively followed the sensation to this location.

Who knew?

Jiang Fan had already beaten him to it.

Therefore, he couldn't let Jiang Fan leave before finding the top-grade magical sword!

Jiang Fan's eyes narrowed. "Can you stop me?"

The demoness and her Sky-Devouring Tiger could arrive at any moment.

Lingering for even a moment longer would bring infinite danger.

Why would he wait here?

Lu Shiyi chuckled angrily, "The Supreme Elder of the Myriad Swords Sect praised you a few times, and you truly think highly of yourself?"

"Isn't it just two moves with the Demon Emperor's daughter?"

"If I were to act, it would be even easier!"

As an observer, he couldn't truly comprehend the terrifying physical strength of Glass.

He only saw Jiang Fan subdue her with ease, and thus believed Glass was nothing special.

Jiang Fan was too lazy to explain further.

He flashed, preparing to bypass them and quickly leave this place of trouble.

"Still trying to leave?"

Lu Shiyi roared with laughter, "You truly don't respect me, Lu Shiyi!"

"Stealing my woman is one thing."

"I saved you from the Evil Spirit, and you show no gratitude, that's another thing."

"Now, when I ask you to cooperate, you dare to ignore me?"

"It seems, unless I teach you a lesson, you won't know pain!"

He had long wanted to teach Jiang Fan a lesson.

He just hadn't had the opportunity.

Now, with no one else around, no one would care what he did!

Jiang Fan was a little impatient. "You saved me from the Evil Spirit?"

"Your disciples from the Righteous Thunder Sect have already explained it, but it seems you haven't listened to a single word."

Lu Shiyi sneered, "Explain what explanation?"

"It's an ironclad fact that I saved you from the Evil Spirit."

"You, who show no gratitude, are ungrateful, worse than a pig or a dog!"

"Even if the King of Heaven came, I would still be in the right!"

Clang!

He drew his sword in a fit of rage, leaped forward, and thrust it towards Jiang Fan, snorting:

"Today, I'll teach you what gratitude means!"

Jiang Fan's eyes grew cold.

Too lazy to fight with such a person, he casually tossed the black mirror out.

"Before you teach others a lesson, you should gain a bit more self-awareness."

Didn't he keep claiming he saved Jiang Fan from the Evil Spirit?

Then he'd release the Evil Spirit and let him deal with it.

The Evil Spirit, thrown out, was momentarily stunned, then chuckled:

"I have to do your dirty work now?"

"You're quite good at ordering people around!"

"However, this half-baked kid certainly isn't very likable."

The black mirror let out a soft laugh.

It faced the aggressively charging Lu Shiyi, revealing a playful look:

"I'll play with you again then!"

"I hope you can handle it."
