"Shopkeeper, I'd like to check out."
The shopkeeper looked up and saw Shen Chuyun looking as if he had been possessed. Immediately, his eyes darted around nervously.
He knew at a glance that Shen Chuyun's state must be because he had eaten those spiritual fruits. If Shen Chuyun found out...
The shopkeeper thought fearfully, quickly checked them out, and smoothly saw them off.
Because of the itching all over his body, Shen Chuyun didn't think much about the shopkeeper's odd behavior.
Shen Qing noticed the shopkeeper's embarrassment but didn't expose it. After giving him a look, she left.
In the dense forest, Shen Chuyun got the sap of the big chrysanthemum leaves on him, so his whole body itched.
He used his spiritual power to block this feeling. But after eating the spiritual fruits, due to the Five - Grain Reincarnation Pill in his body, he would first feel a stomachache and then have the urge to defecate.
However, when Shen Chuyun blocked the itching, he also blocked these abnormal sensations.
So, Shen Chuyun would accidentally find that his lower body was full of excrement. At this time, he would lift the block, and the itching and the pain in his stomach would come at the same time, torturing him so much that he wished he were dead.
Last night, Shen Qing also sprinkled chili powder in the storage bag where Shen Chuyun kept his clothes. This powder was colorless and odorless and didn't harm ordinary cultivators at all.
But when it touched the skin on Shen Chuyun that had come into contact with the big chrysanthemum leaves, there would be a burning sensation.
But Shen Chuyun didn't dare to block this feeling again, for fear that he would defecate while walking and make a fool of himself.
All the clothes Shen Chuyun had brought were unwearable, and the clothes he was wearing now were ordinary ones the shopkeeper had bought overnight.
The material and workmanship of these clothes were rather rough. Besides the fact that Shen Chuyun didn't have enough spirit stones, it was also because of Shen Qing's special instructions.
Wearing this suit of clothes, Shen Chuyun completely lost his former cold and aloof aura. Following Shen Qing, they looked like an ordinary brother and sister.
Shen Chuyun didn't suspect that there was something wrong with the spiritual fruits. Shen Qing had deliberately put two more conflicting spiritual fruits in them. If Shen Chuyun had examined them carefully, he would have recognized them. So he always thought it was his own carelessness that led to diarrhea.
Shen Qing deliberately walked around in front of the shops where Shen Chuyun had returned the goods yesterday.
"I've always said that that suit of clothes was bad luck for you. It's just this kind of coarse cloth clothes that suit you. You're originally from a village. Don't try to act so high - and - mighty."
Shen Chuyun thought Shen Qing was mocking him, so he endured the discomfort and retorted loudly, "You, a useless village girl, have the nerve to talk to me. Don't think you can have a bright future by using your face to deceive and seduce disciples from other sects. Watch out, or you'll end up dead and buried in oblivion!"
Shen Qing sneered, "It's none of your business. You always use the name of True Lord Heng Ling to intimidate others. In fact, you're just afraid that others will find out that you're a useless person."
These words deeply hurt Shen Chuyun's heart. "Shen Qing, you're a useless person who hasn't formed a golden core for so long. How dare you talk to me!"
Out of the corner of her eye, Shen Qing saw that the shopkeepers of those shops had heard their conversation word for word. Then she quickened her pace and left.
"A useless person is just a useless person. You can't even control your flying sword properly. I'll leave Yaotai City today. Let's see if you can catch up with me."
Shen Qing ran towards the city gate. Shen Chuyun looked painful, but because of True Lord Heng Ling's instructions, he could only follow closely.
Shen Chuyun didn't notice that the shopkeepers of those shops behind him were looking at them leaving with gloomy faces.
After leaving the city gate, there was an endless desert.
Shen Qing spread out her spiritual sense and found a group of people following them. She couldn't help but smile.
Shen Chuyun, you sowed the cause. Now it's time for you to taste the fruit.
Shen Qing deliberately slowed down when flying on her sword so that Shen Chuyun could catch up.
After a day and a night of leaving Yaotai City, the people who had been following them finally couldn't hold back and attacked. As soon as they came up, someone directly attacked Shen Chuyun with sword energy.
Shen Chuyun was already in a bad state and didn't notice the approaching danger at all.
After being hit by the sword energy, Shen Chuyun fell from the sky. Before falling, Shen Chuyun subconsciously shouted, "Sister, save me!"
Shen Qing pretended not to hear and accelerated away from the spot.
The ground here was all soft sand, but even so, Shen Chuyun still felt pain all over his body when he hit the ground heavily.
"Ah... Who is it!"
A group of people who were well - covered walked out. Shen Chuyun struggled to get up and tried to identify them, but he couldn't even sense their aura.
They had magical artifacts to hide their aura!
Shen Chuyun subconsciously regarded them as bandit cultivators who were out to rob and tried to intimidate them with the aura of a sect disciple.
"I'm a direct disciple of True Lord Heng Ling of the Qingyun Sword Sect. If you don't want to get into trouble, leave quickly. I might spare your lives!"
But Shen Chuyun's words didn't make them back down at all. Instead, they burst into laughter.
"Look at you now. You don't look like a sect disciple at all. Cut the crap. We're just here to get back what belongs to us!"
After saying that, these people summoned their natal magical artifacts and launched an attack on Shen Chuyun.
Among these people, many were at the late stage of the golden - core realm or above. Shen Chuyun, who was only at the middle stage of the golden - core realm, couldn't fight them at all, especially since he was still in poor physical condition.
So, Shen Chuyun could only keep taking out magical artifacts from his storage bag to dodge their attacks.
Wearing a ring that hid her figure and aura, Shen Qing watched from a distance as Shen Chuyun rolled around in a sorry state.
She calculated the time. When Shen Chuyun couldn't hold on anymore, she would throw a few explosion talismans over. After all, Shen Chuyun's oath hadn't been fulfilled yet, and Shen Qing didn't want him to die so soon.
"You're so useless, yet you still dare to claim to be True Lord Heng Ling's disciple. Does that mean I, at the late stage of the golden - core realm, can beat True Lord Heng Ling?!"
"What sect disciple? I think you're just a useless liar!"
"Let you deceive others and bully others with your power!"
These people kept scolding, demeaning Shen Chuyun to the dust.
Shen Chuyun threw out two explosion talismans, but due to his lack of spiritual power, he almost blew himself up.
Since he had entered the sect, he had never been so embarrassed. Now, just because he took off the Qingyun Sword Sect's disciple uniform, he was being bullied by these hateful bandit cultivators.
Shen Chuyun never thought that the people who were now venting their anger on him were the thugs hired by the shopkeepers he had returned the goods to.
If he hadn't insisted on returning the goods, this wouldn't have happened.
Normally, once the magical artifacts were sold, they couldn't be returned unless there was a quality problem. Shen Chuyun broke the rules just to save face in front of Shen Qing. He deserved it.
Watching Shen Chuyun in such a sorry state, Shen Qing felt extremely happy.
She didn't feel any pity or the bond of blood.
After being reborn, she, Shen Qing, was here for revenge. All those who had wronged her in her previous life should go to hell!
