People forge swords in Lizhu, childhood sweetheart Ruan Xiu falls in love with Ning Yao

Chapter 123: Teaching Malanhua a Lesson, Three Junior Brothers
After sending He Xiaoliang away to return the peach charms, Chu Ci continued his journey at the beginning of the day and headed to the sword pavilion where his master Ruan Qiong was.

Passing by the stone bridge, the old sword under the bridge was no longer there, and Chu Ci didn't know where the Fairy Sister had gone. But as long as Chu Ci wanted to see her, the Fairy Sister would appear in front of him instantly within the scope of Longquan County.

The stream that the stone bridge crosses was elevated from a stream to a river after the Lizhu Cave Heaven landed, and was named Longxu River.

When Chu Ci passed by, he also sensed a hidden aura hidden in the water, staring at him with resentment.

"It looks like you didn't get slapped enough before."

As Chu Ci was speaking, a column of water a hundred feet high suddenly exploded from somewhere in the Longxu River. A figure was washed out by the water column and fell awkwardly on the shore.

"Malanhua, do you think that I can't find you because you became the river god thanks to Old Yang? Do you think you don't need to hide your hatred for me?"

Malanhua was one of the two shrews in Niping Lane back then. She felt uncomfortable if she didn't curse at people. It was not until she cursed Chu Ci, Li Er's family, Chen Ping'an and other people close to Chu Ci that she behaved herself after being slapped hard by Chu Ci.

Naturally, Malanhua began to hate Chu Ci because of this.

"Sir, calm down. I was just confused for a moment. I will never do it again. Never again!"

Malanhua looked like a woman, so pitiful that she kowtowed to Chu Ci repeatedly.

After becoming the river god, Malanhua realized how terrifying the foreign blacksmith named Ruan was. As his disciple, Chu Ci was naturally not someone she could afford to offend. But for someone like Malanhua, the resentment in her heart could not be dispelled.

But she didn't expect that Chu Ci, despite his young age, was already so powerful.

Even though she had the geographical advantage of being in control of a river, Chu Ci would be able to detect it if she showed even the slightest hatred.

"Stay away from me when I pass by in the future, otherwise even Old Yang won't be able to protect you. And your grandson Ma Kuxuan, do you really think I don't know what he's thinking?"

Ma Kuxuan was the most filial to his grandmother Malanhua. Chu Ci, who had beaten Malanhua several times, knew very well that as long as Ma Kuxuan had the strength, he would definitely seek revenge on him.

The reason why Chu Ci was not resolved was because the grudge between Ma Kuxuan's family and Chen Ping'an was more appropriately left to Chen Ping'an to resolve, just like Queen Dali.

"Please, sir, please don't hurt my grandson. I will persuade him to let go of his dissatisfaction with you and teach him to correct his behavior."

Ma Kuxuan is Malanhua's biggest weakness.

"roll!"

Chu Ci looked towards the direction of Jianlu, and saw two men and one woman coming towards him quickly, obviously attracted by the previous water column that shot up into the sky.

"Yes Yes!"

Malanhua, as if pardoned, dived back into the river and hid far away.

"Whoosh!"

The young man in black who arrived first exuded a demonic aura and looked quite powerful.

"who are you?"

The young man in black didn't look very happy. It would have been fine if he had caused trouble in the town, but he even came to Jianlu to cause trouble. The master was in seclusion in Jianlu to make a breakthrough.

"who?"

Chu Ci stepped forward and rushed towards the young man in black, preparing to attack.

"you!"

Seeing this, the young man in black had no choice but to fight back. With demonic energy surging in his body, he also took a step forward, causing the earth to shake for a moment, which was very brutal.

Chu Ci stopped halfway at this moment, and stretched out his palm, and the palm power turned into an indestructible wall.

The black-clothed young man's attack was enough to severely injure anyone below the middle fifth realm, but it didn't even cause a ripple. Instead, it knocked him back repeatedly. For a moment, he saw stars and felt dizzy.

"Shh!"

A cold blade attacked Chu Ci from a tricky angle. Its owner was a young woman, holding the sword with her left hand, which was rare. "Ding!"

The tip of the sword stopped three feet away from Chu Ci. Even though the sword had been bent like a full moon under the girl's full strength, it still could not penetrate even half an inch.

"Buzz!"

There was a wave that shook off from Chu Ci's body, and the long sword suddenly straightened. The powerful recoil force directly bounced the girl back dozens of feet, and the long sword in her hand even flew out of her hand.

At this time, Chu Ci put his palm together and put his two fingers towards his heart in his chest, just in time to catch a small flying sword.

"you?"

The owner of the flying sword was finally a young man about the same age as Chu Ci, with a pair of extremely eye-catching long eyebrows.

After taking a closer look at Chu Ci, he suddenly became embarrassed and said stiffly:
"Are you the eldest senior brother? You hit the wrong person. The three of us are the new disciples accepted by the master. Senior Brother Dong and Senior Sister Xu don't know you, so they hit the wrong person."

The young man with extremely long eyebrows was named Xie Ling. He was a native of the original Lizhu Cave Heaven. Although he was not familiar with Chu Ci, he had met Chu Ci several times. After all, it was just a small town with only a few thousand people.

"Eldest brother?"

The young man and girl in black, who had recovered their breath, looked at Chu Ci. Was this the senior brother whom they had never seen since they joined the sect?

This fight is indeed powerful. No wonder the second brother admires the eldest brother so much.

"Big Brother, my name is Dong Gu/Xu Xiaoqiao"

The boy and girl in black quickly introduced themselves.

"Haha, your senior sister has already mentioned you to me. It was because my senior brother wanted to see the abilities of the three junior brothers that he took action."

Chu Ci loosened his fingers, and Xie Ling was able to take back his natal sword.

"We are not strong enough, I am sorry to make you laugh at me, Senior Brother!"

The three of them said embarrassedly that three against one couldn't shake Chu Ci at all.

Especially the black-clothed young man from Donggu was even more inferior, fearing that he would be despised by a favored child like the eldest senior brother.

Because Dong Gu was a wild mountain monster that became a spirit, he had the worst background among the three and was often looked down upon. But in fact, Dong Gu had extraordinary talent. In the original plot, he was the first of the three to achieve golden elixir.

The one with the best talent is Xie Ling, who has already mastered his own natal sword and is expected to achieve the fifth level of sword cultivation.

Xu Xiaoqiao also has the hope of achieving the Golden Elixir and Nascent Soul stage, which is what ordinary immortal mountain sects call a terrestrial immortal.

"Don't underestimate yourselves. You should trust Master's judgment in accepting disciples."

Chu Ci comforted the three people with a word, flipped his hand, and three beams of light flew out and hovered in front of the three people.

Dong Gu's was an earth spirit bead, Xu Xiaoqiao's was a wood spirit bead, and Xie Ling's was a gold spirit bead.

"These are the gifts that Senior Brother sent to you. Junior Brother Dong's can be transformed into your life-defining item to increase the thickness of your demonic energy. Junior Brother Xie's can be used to nourish your life-defining sword. As for Junior Sister Xu, you can choose how to use it after taking it."

Chu Ci glanced at Xu Xiaoqiao's right hand, the one with the missing thumb, without leaving a trace, and walked towards the sword pavilion.

The Wood Spirit Pearl can even repair a damaged natal sword, let alone flesh and bones.

Xu Xiaoqiao cut off her thumb herself to show her determination to Ruan Qiong, so her choice will determine Chu Ci's attitude towards her in the future.

"Thank you, Senior Brother!"

The three of them each accepted the gifts in front of them and followed Chu Ci back to the sword pavilion.
