As a lord, I was forced to farm

Chapter 857 Two Intimate Demonic Spirits

"Sister, I'll go down and fly for a while by myself." While Jiang Ran and Jiang Nancheng were talking, Jiang Xiaowen was already restless about riding on someone else's flying sword.

She propped herself up on her calves and leaped down from Jiang Ran's black longsword. Suddenly, a crimson spirit sword, one or two times larger than the ordinary Cloud-Swallowing Flying Sword, appeared at her feet.

This is a cloud-swallowing flying sword that Jiang Xiaowen had Zhenyue Weapon Forging Workshop custom-make for her, with more complete functions:
Firstly, several pure-colored gemstones are inlaid on the hilt. This not only maintains the flying sword's splendor but, more importantly, these gemstones can create a wind-breaking shield, allowing the person riding the flying sword to better stabilize their body on the sword.

Secondly, advanced flying swords can be shrunk, making them easier for cultivators to store. They can even be made into exquisite hairpins and other shapes, and inserted into the hair.

Imagine this: under the watchful eyes of everyone, a beautiful female cultivator slightly tilts her head, her slender, fair hand stroking her hair, removing a hairpin from her smooth locks. In the blink of an eye, the exquisite hairpin transforms into a spirit sword, hovering three feet above the ground. You, as the spirit sword's owner, gently step onto it, and the flying sword immediately carries you gracefully through the air. Naturally, those on the ground will cast astonished and envious glances...

However, the upgraded version of the Cloud-Swallowing Flying Sword is not yet available on the market. Jiang Ran does not need to rely on the Cloud-Swallowing Flying Sword to fly. Jiang Xiaowen currently has the first upgraded Cloud-Swallowing Flying Sword.

It was made according to Jiang Xiaowen's preferences, and its appearance is larger and its color is more bright and bizarre.

Jiang Xiaowen's sword-flying style was also exceptionally unrestrained. Under the azure sky, a blazing trail of flame seemed to tear the sky apart. She flew at an extremely fast speed, drawing a half circle in the air, carrying the Crimson Cloud Flying Sword, and hanging upside down in the sky.

"Whoosh! Sister, look how fast I fly!" Jiang Xiaowen's energetic voice came from a great distance.

But before she could be smug for long, a sharp-eyed green eagle rushed over, knocking Jiang Xiaowen away along with her Crimson Cloud Flying Sword.

"You stinky bird!" Jiang Xiaowen steadied herself, watching the tail of the flying Scaled Green Eagle disappear into the distance. She wrinkled her nose; she was very vengeful. Immediately, she piloted her Crimson Cloud Flying Sword and chased after the Scaled Green Eagle, slashing at it. "Sister, brother, today I'll treat you to roasted eagle!!"

However, Jiang Xiaowen's pursuit plan failed. She had already spent a lot of spiritual energy on the Crimson Cloud Flying Sword, and the scaled green eagle was extremely fast. In less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the huge scaled green eagle had thrown her hundreds of meters away.

Jiang Xiaowen flew dejectedly to Jiang Ran and said guiltily, "I can't treat you to roasted bird meat today, sister. I'll remember that green-feathered eagle, and I promise I won't let it get away next time!"

Jiang Xiaowen felt ashamed that she couldn't even catch a bird. With so many capable people in Da Su now, how could she possibly become a great general trusted by her sister and protect the millions of people in Da Su with her current abilities?

Thinking about it, Jiang Xiaowen lost interest in continuing to explore Juguan Island and couldn't wait to go back to cultivate. Her immediate goal was to defeat Elder Chen honorably and capture that hateful Scaled Green Eagle from earlier.

Thinking it over, she hurriedly said to Jiang Ran, "Sister, I suddenly remembered that I have something to do, so I'll go back first."

Jiang Ran nodded.

Watching Jiang Xiaowen's departing figure, he tilted his head slightly and asked Jiang Nancheng beside him, "Was she disappointed because she failed to catch Lin Lüying?"

As she spoke, a green eagle as tall as an adult suddenly appeared in Jiang Ran's hand; it was the very eagle that Jiang Xiaowen had just been chasing.

Jiang Nancheng's eyes widened in surprise.

"Sister, when did you catch it?"

He remembered that the Scaled Green Eagle had flown several hundred meters away just now, and his sister hadn't even moved an inch. How had she managed to capture the Scaled Green Eagle? His sister's strength seemed even more unfathomable.

Jiang Ran suggested giving the Scaled Green Eagle to Jiang Xiaowen, which made Jiang Nancheng both laugh and cry. "I think the main problem isn't that. Besides, if we give the Scaled Green Eagle to Xiaowen, I think she'll be even more frustrated."

Jiang Nancheng could understand some of Jiang Xiaowen's thoughts. She felt that she hadn't made any progress and that she was too weak to help her sister. Yet she had enjoyed the countless resources given to her by Da Su and her sister, which made her feel guilty and angry and self-blaming for her incompetence.

Actually, he's pretty much the same.

Jiang Ran nodded, loosened her grip, and the scaled green eagle flapped its wings, feathers flying everywhere, and fled in panic without daring to look back.

The siblings strolled around Juguan Island and increasingly felt that it was a good place for planting and raising livestock.

First, Juguan Island is very large. Second, Juguan Island has many spiritual fields suitable for planting spiritual plants. With a little cultivation, various immortal herbs can be planted on these fields.

As Jiang Ran and Jiang Nancheng discussed which medicinal herbs to plant and which livestock to raise on the island, they unknowingly arrived at the northernmost part of the giant island.

Ahead lay a dense thicket of thorns, their branches twisted like snakes, intertwined in a dense mass. The vines were dark purple, covered with barbs, and if you cut them open, a purple liquid would flow out.

These purple liquids are poisonous and can corrode flesh.

Deeper still, at the edge of Giant View Island, hang several dark red fruits shaped like hearts.

Sensing the approaching familiar presence, two creatures with butterfly wings flew out from the bushes.

They turned out to be two demonic spirits.

These two spirits were unusually close and got along very well.

After all, there is often competition between different plants. Naturally, the spirits born from plants will also be more or less hostile to other spirits. Some, like the Holy Pattern Cotton Spirit, will think about how to devour other spirits to strengthen themselves.

However, the purple and red spirits in front of them had a very good relationship. They seemed to be the best of friends or the most affectionate partners, fluttering and cuddling, sometimes flying high and sometimes circling low, heading straight for Jiang Ran and Jiang Nancheng.

"Yomi~" came a voice, one high and one low, which was the voice of two demon spirits begging for food.

“The red one is the Blood Marrow Grass spirit, and the purple one is the Purple Thorn spirit.” Jiang Nancheng stretched out his hand, and the two spirits stopped on his arm.

Blood Marrow Grass is quite special. Its fruit, Blood Marrow Fruit, is a favorite of magical beasts. If a magical beast eats it, there is a chance that its bloodline will be transformed, and it will inherit the excellent bloodline of its ancient ancestors.

Although there's a chance that eating it will drive the host mad and cause death, many magical beasts still crave it immensely. However, most magical beasts have little reason and often pick the Blood Marrow Fruit before it's ripe. In the process, the magical beasts might ruthlessly trample the delicate stems and leaves...
