Beast Taming: I gained the talent of a spirit pet
#44 - Jealousy! (Please read and vote)
Although we won this ambush, Jade Tripod Pavilion suffered a pyrrhic victory, with heavy losses, and no one could be happy.
"Brother Luo, you handle the rest. I won't participate," Old Mo shook his head, showing no intention of interfering, and turned back to the carriage.
Steward Luo Sheng glanced at the extremely weak Yang Han, then looked at Gu Yuan: "Gu Yuan, right? You're very good. You've not only made a great contribution to our Jade Tripod Pavilion this time, but also saved Miss Three. When we return, I will definitely report to Pavilion Master, and he will surely reward you handsomely!"
As expected, I guessed right. Gu Yuan remained calm inside, but on the surface, he showed a look of surprise and joy, and quickly thanked him: "Thank you, Steward!"
"Yes, of course, that's for when we get back."
Luo Sheng nodded and said, "As for now, Gu Yuan, and Miss Three, you two are basically unharmed, so come with me. Although most of the Blackwind Stronghold bandits have been wiped out, the remaining ones are still a hidden danger and must be eradicated to the root!"
He said with a solemn expression, "Moreover, Jade Tripod Pavilion has suffered heavy losses this time, and we need to take the Blackwind Stronghold's accumulated wealth to make up for it."
I'm afraid the latter is your main purpose. Gu Yuan muttered to himself.
However, if he could go to the Blackwind Stronghold, he might be able to get some benefits, and he also had something to deal with.
Therefore, Gu Yuan naturally had no objections.
Not far away, Yang Jianfei, who was silently treating his broken arm, widened his eyes when he heard Luo Sheng's words. He looked at Gu Yuan with a hint of jealousy, and even a hint of gritted teeth on his face.
Obviously, this country bumpkin, whom he had never taken seriously, was about to turn his life around!
If that was all, it would be fine, but the key was that this kid had also saved Miss Three, Xia Xiuxue, and now he had gained the favor of Steward Luo Sheng. When they returned, he would surely catch the eye of Pavilion Master Xia Mingyang. What a great honor!
Yang Jianfei himself had good aptitude and talent and could be considered a rare martial arts genius. He was deeply valued by the elders of his family, and he himself had high expectations, determined to become an Innate Martial Master, and even cultivate to the Celestial Realm!
Since joining Jade Tripod Pavilion, he had been highly valued. In addition, he had an uncle who was a deacon as his backer, so his future could be described as bright.
But now, a mere country bumpkin had actually surpassed him, which he couldn't accept for a while.
Why?!
His identity, background, and martial arts were all stronger than this kid's, but now he was being climbed over!
Yang Jianfei was unwilling, but when he saw his second uncle, Yang Han, unable to stand steadily and sitting paralyzed on the ground, with a pale face, meditating to heal his injuries, he fell silent.
Luo Sheng was the steward of Jade Tripod Pavilion in North Liang County and an Innate Martial Master. Even his second uncle, Yang Han, wouldn't dare to say anything, let alone himself?
Moreover, his second uncle's injuries were not light this time. If he couldn't recover as soon as possible, his position would be unstable, which would be detrimental to himself!
With this thought in mind, he had the idea of making more contributions. He glanced at Gu Yuan, gritted his teeth, and saluted Luo Sheng with one arm: "Please also allow me to go to Blackwind Stronghold, so that I can also do my best!"
Luo Sheng looked at his broken arm and didn't say much, nodding: "Alright, then you can come along."
Gu Yuan didn't know Yang Jianfei's psychological activities, but he noticed that Yang Jianfei's gaze was strange, and couldn't help but think to himself:
"Why is this guy looking at me so strangely? Could it be that he has ulterior motives and is jealous of me?"
But he didn't take it to heart. Immediately, he looked at the long sword in his hand, which was pitted and corroded by the corpse fly venom, sighed, and threw it away.
"What a pity for this good sword, it's ruined."
He found a rather sharp long sword on the ground. Just then, Luo Sheng called out, and the group followed Luo Sheng to Blackwind Stronghold.
As for Old Mo and the other severely injured people, they stayed where they were.
On the way, Xia Xiuxue occasionally glanced at Gu Yuan, hesitant, as if wanting to say something.
This scene fell into Yang Jianfei's eyes, making him, who had always regarded Xia Xiuxue as his possession, feel great hatred in his heart, and faintly had a feeling of being cuckolded, and his gaze towards Gu Yuan became somewhat unkind.
Did I dig up your ancestral grave or steal your wife? Why are you looking at me like that? Gu Yuan couldn't help but feel a little depressed, suspecting that this guy had something wrong with his brain.
Xia Xiuxue, who had been holding back for a long time, finally couldn't help but ask the question in her heart.
"Gu Yuan, you've only been practicing martial arts for a month, why... why is your swordsmanship so pure and exquisite?"
Before today, she had not really taken Gu Yuan, the medicine gatherer, to heart.
But Gu Yuan's performance today was truly amazing!
To show such amazing talent after only learning martial arts for less than a month made her inevitably feel doubts. It was just that this question was somewhat abrupt, after all, it involved Gu Yuan's privacy. As soon as she asked, she felt a little regretful.
Just as she was about to tell Gu Yuan that he didn't need to explain, she saw Gu Yuan scratch his head, also looking puzzled:
"Perhaps it should be related to my comprehension. At first, I always couldn't grasp the essence of the 'Spirit Snake Swordplay', but later I caught a snake and observed it day and night, and I improved rapidly, and my understanding of this swordsmanship became deeper and deeper."
Catching a snake to observe it?
Hearing this, Xia Xiuxue couldn't help but be stunned, and her bright, beautiful eyes turned around Gu Yuan, obviously not believing it.
Even Luo Sheng and Yang Jianfei had a strange look on their faces.
Many martial arts were created by predecessors observing the heaven and earth, nature, and various beasts and spirit beasts. Gu Yuan's method did have some truth, and many people did the same, which was not a secret.
As for the effect...
If the effect was really good, wouldn't there be experts everywhere in the martial world?
However, it must be said that there were indeed some people with extraordinary comprehension who had gained quite a bit, so Gu Yuan's words did have some truth.
But if what Gu Yuan said was true, wouldn't that mean that his comprehension was also extraordinary?!
Thinking this way, Yang Jianfei felt as uncomfortable as if he had eaten fly feces.
On the other hand, Luo Sheng took a deep look at Gu Yuan.
Blackwind Stronghold was not far away. The group walked along the mountain road for a while and came to the mountainside.
On this relatively flat ground, a寨 was built with wood and stone, looking quite rough and simple.
At this time, there was no one guarding the arrow tower at the entrance of the寨, and even two corpses were lying on the ground at the entrance, all separated from their heads. It was unknown what had happened.
"It was done by Tie Hu, but this guy should have left. He probably came back specifically to take the wealth. In order to prevent anyone from revealing his whereabouts, he chose to kill people and silence them."
Luo Sheng's eyesight was naturally quite good. With just a glance, he deduced most of what had happened through various clues.
This is the first time a newbie has written a book. Everyone's follow-up reading is very important, and it is related to the recommendation later. Please be sure to read the last chapter every day! Thank you!
