Confucian and Taoist scholar

Chapter 70: Destroying the Demon Nest
The four students were originally sitting there paralyzed, unable to resist, waiting to be slaughtered by the insects.

Unexpectedly, Lu Zheng directly used a battle poem to expel the toxins from their bodies, and their literary spirit was restored.

With the blessing of the battle poems and literary treasures, the four of them became courageous and had an indomitable momentum.

"kill!"

A student suddenly stood up, his eyes shining, and faced the rolling tide of insects.

The remaining three people were infected and stood up to resist.

Seeing that these four people were able to fight, Lu Zheng quickly drew the long sword from his waist, stepped lightly, and ran towards the direction of the spider spirits.

When a spider demon saw Lu Zheng rushing towards him, its swollen abdomen began to wriggle.

A ball of spider silk sprayed out, then turned into a large net in the air, covering Lu Zheng.

Lu Zheng shook his wrist, and the long sword in his hand spewed out a mighty sword energy.

He leaped high and rushed towards the big net, swung his sword and the originally extremely tough spider web was easily cut apart by the mighty sword energy.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Zheng took a step forward, approached the spider spirit, and with a flash of sword light, stabbed out.

The spider demon was unable to dodge and in the blink of an eye, the sword energy cut off its two slender spider legs.

The spider spirit screamed in pain and shouted angrily, "Kill this scholar!"

Seeing this, the other spider spirits realized that Lu Zheng had some abilities, and they all spit out spider silk, trying to bind Lu Zheng.

Lu Zheng showed no fear. He flicked his hand and threw out a treasure.

Wenbao shone brightly in the air, and a sense of righteousness swept across the four directions.

The spider silk instantly lost its momentum and fluttered and scattered in the air.

The surrounding spiders were exposed to the righteous energy and retreated one after another.

Lu Zheng seized the opportunity and swung his sword.

The sharp long sword was wrapped in a fierce sword energy, the sword light flashed, and there was a sound of breaking through the air.

But in the blink of an eye, a spider demon was nailed to the wall by the sword.

The long sword pierced the center of the spider demon's head accurately, killing the monster instantly.

But the huge body was not dead yet and was still twitching and struggling.

After killing a spider spirit with one sword, Lu Zheng flashed and ran towards the nearest other spider spirit.

He grabbed with his big hand and pulled the spider demon hard, ignoring the dense poisonous thorns on its long legs.

Then Lu Zheng took advantage of the momentum to jump up and punched the spider demon hard on the head.

Suddenly, fishy juice splashed.

Lu Zheng's move was clean and efficient, and he killed the two spider spirits in a short time.

He continued to face the remaining spider spirits with his momentum and cold eyes.

An Jing raised his eyebrows and wanted to help, but Lu Zheng handled these big spiders with ease and didn't need any help at all. He seemed to be very experienced.

She quickly averted her gaze and helped the four students clear the oncoming wave of spiders.

The three fairies were surprised to see that Lu Zheng had such fierce fighting power with his bare hands, and he didn't look like a scholar at all.

Moreover, his elegant aura could restrain the spider silk and toxins released by them, making him want to retreat.

Hesitation would cost one's life. The three goblins had a tacit understanding and retreated quickly and directly into the depths of the cave.

Seeing this, Lu Zheng knew that this spider's nest must have other exits, and these spider spirits wanted to escape.

There are so many mountains, and if these monsters escape, it will not be easy to find them later.

Lu Zheng didn't think twice and hurriedly chased after him.

As the three goblins retreated, they summoned nearby spiders to weave webs to block the passage and used their bodies to block Lu Zheng's steps.

Lu Zheng looked at the dense swarm of spiders coming towards him, without slowing down, and continued to charge forward.

Wherever it passed, it crushed countless insects to death. Deep in the cave, on the ceiling, a faint light appeared.

When Lu Zheng looked up, he saw a crack in the stone wall above him, and sunlight from outside was shining in.

The three goblins quickly climbed up the spider web, trying to leave.

Lu Zheng glanced behind him and saw that there was no one behind him.

He raised his hand slightly, and a small sun condensed in his palm.

Then, Lu Zheng threw it with force.

The next moment, dazzling white light appeared, and white flames filled the space, trying to burn away all the filthy and evil things.

The spider webs instantly vaporized and turned into wisps of green smoke.

The three goblins were hit hard, with flames all over their bodies, and fell from the sky.

Countless spiders around caught fire and burned to ashes in the blink of an eye.

Lu Zheng stood in this space, standing in the fireworks without being stained at all, as if he was a god controlling fire.

His eyes were cold as he watched the spider spirit's body gradually shrink and turn into charcoal, without any emotion in his heart.

[You destroyed a spider spirit's lair, eliminating a local threat. Li Qi +60!]

When the last trace of white fireworks dissipated, An Jing's figure appeared behind.

"Ok?"

An Jing looked at the dust on the ground and was slightly surprised.

She could see that Lu was using fire to deal with the spiders, burning the place cleanly.

But she keenly discovered that there was no trace of fire burning in this space. She didn't even smell a trace of burning. Only the ashes proved that there had been a fire here just now.

"How did you do it?" An Jing couldn't help but ask curiously.

"What?" Lu Zheng turned around.

An Jing asked, "What kind of treasure are you using? Why does it feel like it burns even cleaner than my fire talisman..."

Lu Zheng smiled when he heard this. "It's just a little trick. Are they okay?"

"It's okay, everything is fine." An Jing said.

Lu Zheng walked back and saw four students resting against the wall, looking miserable and weak.

Without Wenbao's power, they were reduced to their original form.

A student saw Lu Zheng returning and asked, "Brother Lu, those goblins..."

"They're all dead." Lu Zheng said with a smile, "I just saw a place inside where some things were placed. How about you go look for them, change your clothes, and have something to eat?"

The four of them blushed when they heard this, and saw a woman from Anjing here.

They all quickly stood up, covered their shameful parts and ran to find clothes.

Lu Zheng came to the edge of the stone wall, raised his hand to pull out the sword, and then put the sword back into the sheath.

An Jing stood aside and said with a smile, "I didn't expect that Master Lu is so skilled. Has he learned martial arts before?"

Lu Zheng shook his head and said, "Not really. I've killed so many monsters that I've learned some tricks."

An Jing suddenly realized that relying on fighting could indeed quickly improve one's own martial arts skills.

She added, "Mr. Lu's war poems and literary treasures are quite good. You are full of literary talent, so I'm afraid it's more than one foot, right?"

She didn't think that Lu Zheng could write that piece of writing treasure just because he had a little more than a foot of writing power.

"It's just an incomplete collection of war poems." Lu Zheng said with a smile.

An Jing was suspicious. She felt that Lu Zhengyan was not being truthful and must be hiding some secret, which was why Qingxuan praised him so much.
