Everyone ascended, but I didn't get on board

Chapter 74: Repair is not safe

"Found it!" The man suddenly exclaimed, squatting down and picking up some soil. "Look, there's a cave here. The soil next to it is still red. There must be a lot of red sand in it."

The woman's face lit up with joy. "Great, I finally found it."

"Let's go in quickly and dig more." After the man said this, he bent down and walked into the cave impatiently.

Chu Qiuci, who was about to leave quietly, paused again. No, these two rookies actually dared to go in!
She frowned, made a gesture, and separated two strands of spiritual thoughts to attach to the other person to avoid accidents.

Sure enough, she hadn't been waiting outside for half a moment when a scream came out of the cave, followed by a crackling sound and hurried footsteps.

The next moment, two disheveled figures rushed out of the cave, rolling and crawling. Their hair was disheveled, and their green clothes were stained with reddish-brown dirt. The man's sleeve was missing a section, and there was a conspicuous scar on his hand, as if he had been scratched by something.

Roar……

Shortly after the two crawled out, a giant lizard-like monster appeared from the cave entrance. Sparks emanated from its mouth, making it a fire-type monster. Although it was crawling, it was extremely fast and quickly caught up to the two, then opened its mouth and spewed out a stream of flames.

The two men quickly retreated and frantically took out a talisman. A white light lit up, and a circle of barrier was erected around them, narrowly blocking the gushing flames.

"It's... it's the fifth-level demon beast, the Red Flame Lizard!" The woman's face turned pale. A fifth-level demon beast is equivalent to the Nascent Soul stage, and the two of them who had just formed a Dan stage could not deal with it.

"Why is there a fifth-level monster here?" The man also looked panicked.

The woman remembered something and murmured, "The Red Nether Grass is strong in nature and likes the sun. It often grows in the sandy soil layer of Danyan, near the nest of the Red Flame Lizard." These contents were all written in the books, but neither of them remembered them. They went straight into the cave and startled the monster. They immediately began to doubt, is what Master Chu said really useless?
The two men retreated several steps, thinking of ways to get rid of each other, but found that the Red Flame Lizard had already blocked the front. They had nowhere to retreat, and with the speed of the opponent, even if they escaped, they would be caught up sooner or later.

With a click, a crack appeared on the defensive barrier. The talisman in the man's hand was burning into ashes bit by bit. The Red Flame Lizard seemed to have noticed this as well. The flame in its mouth became stronger, and finally with a bang, the barrier shattered.

The Red Flame Lizard opened its mouth and pounced on them without any hesitation. The two men's faces turned pale, their legs went weak, and they had no strength to resist. They were about to be swallowed.

suddenly!

A humming sound of sword was heard.

A sharp sword energy descended from the sky and slashed straight down. Before the fifth-level monster that had just jumped up could fall, it was pierced directly by the sword energy and nailed to the ground. It didn't even have time to scream before it was silent. Only a bloody mouth half the width of a person remained, still staring straight at the two men.

Boom!
The fear of death swept over the two men. They could not stand still and collapsed to the ground in fear.

"You shouldn't come to such a dangerous place." Qiu Ci finally descended from the sky and looked at the two people on the ground with disapproval. It wasn't always possible for her to meet them by chance.

The two were stunned, as if they just realized that they were still alive. They looked up at her blankly. After a while, the woman reacted first and murmured, "Chu...Master Chu?" Was she dazzled?
"Yeah." Qiu Ci nodded, and without saying anything more, he turned around and said, "Follow me, I'll take you out."

The two of them took a few deep breaths, and their frightened souls finally returned to their bodies. They realized that they were rescued, and immediately got up and chased in her direction, following her obediently, their eyes full of relief for surviving the disaster, and they didn't even dare to look back at the corpse of the monster behind them.

Qiu Ci only took the two of them for a short distance. When he estimated that they had calmed down, he summoned the spirit sword and said, "Your spirit power has recovered, right? Then we have to fly back on the sword." Then he flew up.

The two were very obedient this time. They flew up on their swords and followed behind honestly. Along the way, they encountered many other monsters, all of which were level five or six. But when Qiu Ci released his divine power, those monsters retreated into their nests.

"Thank...thank you very much, Master Chu, for saving me." The man reacted at this time and hurriedly clasped his fists to express his gratitude.

"Thank you, Master Chu." The woman also bowed.

If it weren't for Master Chu, they would have really been eaten by the monster. "No need, it's my duty." Qiu Ci waved his hand casually. After all, they were his students, and he couldn't just watch them get eaten.

"..." The expressions of the two became more complicated. They never dreamed that the person who saved them would be Master Chu. After all, they were still speaking ill of her just a moment ago, belittling her as worthless. Even the purpose of coming out this time was to switch to another way of practicing and get rid of this teacher, but they turned around and were saved by her.

They exchanged glances silently. Could it be that Master Chu heard what he just said?

That shouldn’t be the case. If he really heard it, how could he not be angry at all and even save them?

After thinking about it carefully, they suddenly felt a little regretful. After all, the other party was their teacher, and no matter how dissatisfied they were, they should not talk about him behind his back.

Fortunately, she didn't hear it.

"We're here." Qiu Ci's sword-flying speed was not slow to begin with, and the other two, still feeling fearful, tried their best to keep up with her speed, so in less than half an hour, the three of them had arrived outside Wan'an City.

Qiu Ci landed on the ground and pointed at the city gate, saying, "You guys can go back to the academy on your own. I have other things to do."

The two nodded, and the man bowed to her seriously again, saying, "I'll take my leave now. Thank you, Master Chu, for saving my life and escorting me. Yang Yong will never forget it."

"Thank you, Master Chu." The woman also bowed and thanked him again.

Qiu Ci nodded and watched them leave. Suddenly, he thought of something and said, "Wait a minute!"

The two men paused and turned around to see the other throwing something. The man subconsciously reached out to take it and found that it was a heavy red stone, which was the Danyan sand they were looking for.

"Aren't you looking for this? Here's a piece for you." She picked it up from the side when she killed the monster just now. Yes, there was a piece of Danyan sand not far from the cave entrance. She didn't know why the two of them had to go into the cave to look for it.

"This..." The two were stunned, their hearts sinking. How did Master Chu know that they were looking for this? Could it be... she heard it?!

"Take it and use it, and don't run off into the forest anymore." Qiu Ci instructed as he walked, then turned back when he thought of something. "Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you, if you want to switch to practicing talismans, it might not be safe! Because starting next year, I'll be teaching at the Talisman Pavilion for a year."

"..."

"The year after next it will be the Formation Pavilion, the year after that it will be the Weapon Pavilion, and then the Sword Pavilion and the Spell Pavilion."

"..."

"So unless you are promoted to the third rank or above within a year, I will teach you no matter which pavilion you transfer to."

"..."

"besides!"

"..."

"Don't forget to hand in your homework tomorrow. It needs to be checked."

The two people who were completely petrified: "..."

Are you some kind of devil?
