Faced with Flame Lingwei's arrogant statement, Zhong Cang wanted to continue to be tough, but the five-colored lotus seeds in front of him were too fragrant.

If he got these five lotus seeds, Zhong Cang would not only shorten his cultivation time by one year, but also at least double the probability of him being recruited into the inner gate and worshipping a good master.

At this critical juncture in life, giving such a gift can be called a charcoal in the snow.

This also made Zhong Cang understand that he owed her a big favor.

Although Zhong Cang, who knows how to be grateful, does not have the idea of taking it in vain, he has decided to repay this favor and resources three times or even ten times after the fact.

But sending charcoal in the snow itself is also a great blessing.

"I accept your investment, and in the future, I will repay it tenfold...... Wait, you're not going to let me help you deal with the Flame Spirit Butterfly, are you? ”

Zhong Cang, who was about to accept it, thought of something, and couldn't help but ask Flame Lingwei.

To this, she snorted coldly.

"Am I such a despicable person in your eyes?"

After hesitating for a moment, Zhong Cang nodded without violating his heart.

Such a response instantly made Flame Lingwei's chest ache.

"You bastard, won't you say nice things!"

“……”

“……”

As soon as the words came out because of anger and panic, Zhong Cang and Flame Lingwei immediately stared at each other, not knowing what to say.

In the end, it was still Flame Lingwei's maid Xiaochan, who reacted after a while, breaking the embarrassing atmosphere between the two.

"Miss, you just admitted that you were a villain......

"Smack!"

"Just talk a lot."

After bullying Xiaochan and regaining her calmness, Flame Lingwei, fiddled with her hair, and said to Zhong Cang as if nothing had happened: "Don't worry, my stupid sister is not Miss Ben's opponent at all, I can suppress her backhand without you." ”

“…… It's good if you're happy. ”

……

After agreeing with Flame Lingwei and not competing with the Flame family, Zhong Cang accepted her investment.

And when Zhong Cang put away the five-colored lotus seeds, Flame Lingwei opened another wooden box.

Inside was a flying sword, the word 'thunder' engraved on the blade.

In Zhong Cang's perception, this flying sword was not weaker than Feng Hua at all.

Flame Lingwei's introduction made Zhong Cang even more sure of this.

"This is a medium-grade thunder flying sword (magic weapon), the whole body of the flying sword is cast by thunder meteor iron, the sword body is engraved with a thunder array, the wind and thunder are one, this flying sword is very compatible with your Fenghua, take it."

She handed the flying sword to Zhong Cang, but Zhong Cang was not an insatiable person, so after putting away the five-colored lotus seeds, he politely rejected Flame Lingwei's kindness.

"No need, I just need five-colored lotus seeds, you can take this flying sword back...... ......."

"Hmmm?!!"

Zhong Cang, who refused, couldn't help but pause halfway through his words.

——When he accepted the five-colored lotus seed and refused to fly the sword and thunder, he was surprised to find that Flame Spirit Butterfly's face became gloomy.

That kind of terrifying look gave Zhong Cang a feeling that she was about to knife herself.

This scene made Zhong Cang confused.

'Not really, right? I've accepted your kindness, but I just don't want to take it all in a greedy way? Is this obviously for your good? ’

Zhong Cang didn't understand why she was so unhappy when she refused to fly the sword, which was obviously beneficial to Flame Lingwei.

Just when he was puzzled, Flame Lingwei's voice sounded faintly.

"Hehe, is the thunder bad, I'm really sorry, I prepared a gift you don't like......"

Seeing that the air pressure around Flame Lingwei's body was getting lower and lower, and her voice was extremely quiet, there was a tendency to turn into a female ghost, Zhong Cang hurriedly waved his hand.

"Ahem, you misunderstood, I like this flying sword very much."

"Hehe, don't force yourself."

"Not reluctantly, not reluctantly at all."

Although he didn't know why Flame Lingwei behaved so weirdly, Zhong Cang had a hunch that if he only took the five-colored lotus seed and gave up the flying sword thunder, he would definitely not think about it for the next period of time.

didn't want to end up in this situation, Zhong Cang could only 'tearfully' take the flying sword Thunder in his hand.

"Crackling!"

The Flying Sword Thunder is a pure new long sword, and it has not been stained with anyone's mark.

Zhong Cang has a human sword in one, which makes Zhong Cang feel connected to his hands and feet as soon as he holds the thunder.

This manifestation is in the outside world, that is, as soon as Zhong Cang holds the thunder, there are small pieces of thunder, which light up on Zhong Cang and the flying sword.

In addition to the unity of human and sword, Zhong Cang also has a natural spell, and he has five thunders in his palm.

"Zizi ......"

As Zhong Cang induced his own natural spells, the connection between the two became even deeper.

After a few breaths, when Zhong Cang let go of the flying sword, the thunder did not fall to the ground, but flexibly circled around Zhong Cang's body.

is like an arm, so that the flying sword thunder is very compatible with Zhong Cang, and this also makes the corner of Flame Lingwei's mouth show a smile.

She was laughing, and the corners of Zhong Cang's mouth also showed a wry smile.

"This favor is owed a lot."

Of course, in addition to the wry smile, Zhong Cang's face was more joyful and confident.

With the five-colored lotus seed and the flying sword thunder, this time the outer courtyard was compared, and Zhong Cang's confidence in entering the inner door changed from 50% to 100%.

He was sure that this time the inner door would have its own place.

And Zhong Cang is even more confident that after entering the inner door, he has the ability to repay Flame Lingwei's kindness.

"Your investment won't fail."

"Hee-hee, Miss Ben is looking forward to it."

At this time, the two of them were happy.

It's just that such a harmonious atmosphere can only be so for a while.

When Flame Lingwei left the training ground, her face was blue and her chest was rising and falling.

Obviously, she was not lightly angered.

It's not that Zhong Cang has any contradiction with Flame Lingwei.

But after obtaining the flying sword thunder, Zhong Cang was eager to try, and Flame Lingwei also wanted to see what kind of power the medium-grade flying sword could exert in Zhong Cang's hands.

Therefore, after Zhong Cang adapted to the flying sword thunder and let it command like an arm, the two went to the ring with synesthesia and practiced again.

Then, Flame Lingwei was abused.

And this time, she was defeated extremely miserably.

For sword cultivation, in the middle and late stages of Qi training, although the imperial sword is more flexible than holding it, but because of the lack of divine sense, the mana has not yet changed qualitatively, and this attack method has a huge flaw - insufficient power.

During the Qi refining period, Edgeworth's attack is far inferior to a slash that gathers the strength of the whole body.

Therefore, when using the Fenghua Imperial Sword, Zhong Cang could not cut off the Brilliant Flame Heavenly Spirit on Flame Lingwei's body with one blow, even if he followed the weak point of the rhythm.

It's just that when Zhong Cang's imperial envoy's flying sword changed from Fenghua to thunder, everything was different.

Thunderbolt is tougher and sharper than Maple.

But these are nothing, what makes Zhong Cang's attack qualitatively change is the thunder array engraved on the thunder sword.

Activate this formation, and the flying sword thunder will be stimulated by the thunder, and in a short period of time, the speed will skyrocket.

And as we all know, speed is power.

There is also a saying: The world's martial arts are invincible, and only fast is not broken.

The combination of the two is a bolt of thunder, and the battle is over.

Of course, normally speaking, even if there was thunder, Flame Lingwei should not have been defeated so quickly.

The mana was so weak that Zhong Cang could only activate a thunderbolt for a few minutes.

Therefore, if you want the thunder to exert the maximum effect, Zhong Cang needs to test it first, and then break out a thunderous blow.

In this way, we can defeat the enemy, and not let this earth-shattering blow go to waste.

However, Zhong Cang was too familiar with Flame Lingwei.

This familiarity allows Zhong Cang to skip the foreplay and go straight to the center.

At the same time, this battle also made Zhong Cang aware of the horror of sword cultivation.

"Extreme speed, coupled with extreme attacks, makes it impossible for any monk to show a flaw in front of me, as long as it is slightly exposed, I can rely on the extreme speed of Edgeworth to kill."

"This is still now, if I comprehend the thunder sound of the sword, ordinary enemies may not even react, or react, but they don't have time to release the spell, they will be beheaded by me!"

"It's so terrifying, no wonder everyone in the world says that real sword cultivation can't be provoked."

After sighing at the strength of the sword cultivation, Zhong Cang obediently cultivated.

No matter how strong the sword cultivation is, it can only cross the small realm against the enemy, and it is difficult to cross the big realm, so for the monk, cultivation is the foundation.

And the five-colored lotus seed can allow Zhong Cang to reduce penance for a full year, and at this time, he really wants to see the scenery of the fifth layer of qi training.
