Chapter 173 - Not as Good as the Kindness of My Fellow Disciple

  "Thank you, Junior Brother Lu."

  Huang Yuan couldn't help but feel relieved when he saw Lu Xuan agreed.

  Outer disciples from other waters found him and asked him to help contact Lu Xuan and draw blood to check the giant dragon pythons they raised.

  If Lu Xuan refused, he would be embarrassed.

  Huang Yuan flicked his right hand, and a spiritual light flashed. A leaf flying boat magic weapon appeared on the ground.

  The two boarded the flying boat, and the magic weapon turned into a stream of light and rushed away.

  Qianlong Lake is vast, stretching for hundreds of miles. Naturally, there are more than one place where first- and second-grade giant dragon pythons are raised.

  After a while, the two came to several stone houses.

  As soon as they landed, several people hurried out, and their eyes lit up when they saw Lu Xuan and the others.

  "Brother Huang, you are finally here. I

  have been waiting for so long." "This is Junior Brother Lu Xuan who was able to find the traces of the parasitic Hidden Scale Fish, right? I have heard of your name for a long time."

  A cultivator with a steady face greeted the two enthusiastically, holding Lu Xuan's hand and not letting go for a long time.

  Lu Xuan broke free and saluted with a fist:

  "Hello, Senior Brother."

  "Brother Zhang, I finally called Junior Brother Lu here. Don't scare this big treasure away."

  Huang Yuan on the side teased.

  Zhang Hao couldn't help rubbing his hands and smiled awkwardly.

  Huang Yuan introduced each other, and several people walked into the stone house together.

  "Brother Zhang, Junior Brother Lu came here this time to solve the problem of the Hidden Scale Fish parasitic in the body of the Jiaolong Python. You should plan and arrange it well, and try to check all the Jiaolong monsters in this area at once."

  After entering the stone house, Lu Xuan sat aside and smiled silently. Huang Yuan went straight to the point and said to Zhang Hao and others.

  "As for the reward, Junior Brother Lu said he was only willing to take a little hard work fee, and the inspection price is the same as before."

  "Each time you inspect a dragon python, you need to pay two spirit stones. If you find a hidden scale fish or other abnormalities, you need 20 spirit stones for each one."

  "What do you think, Senior Brother Zhang?"

  "That's great. Junior Brother Lu is so generous to take care of his fellow disciples!"

  Zhang Hao said with a smile. He had prepared for the inspection price to rise, but Lu Xuan gave him an unexpected surprise.

  Those who raise dragon python monsters are ordinary outer disciples. Whether in terms of origin or talent, they are not the best in the sect, so they have devoted countless efforts to the task of raising dragons.

  Although each cultivator needs to pay about 100 spirit stones in total, it is nothing in front of many rare and expensive dragon pythons.

  After a few words, someone took Lu Xuan to draw blood to check the dragons.

  Under the control of the replica dragon binding ring, the dragons appeared in front of Lu Xuan one by one.

  He first raised a little bit of monster meat, learned detailed information about the dragon and its physical condition, and then began to extract the dragon's blood.

  This cycle repeated itself, and dragons were sent to him like an assembly line. He mechanically and numbly repeated the action over and over again.

  As the number of dragons whose blood was extracted increased, the white jade vials in the storage bag used to hold the blood gradually became insufficient.

  Lu Xuan took advantage of the interval between collecting and taking out to mix the blood of dragons and pythons of the same species together to get new white jade empty bottles, so as to avoid the embarrassing situation of insufficient blood containers.

  During this period, it was occasionally found that the dragon had a parasitic scale fish in its body. Lu Xuan found it easily and let the monks deal with it.

  After being busy for almost a whole day, all the dragons and pythons in the waters where Zhang Hao was located were finally checked.

  Lu Xuan drew blood more than 200 times in total, and the white jade vials in the storage bag were almost piled up into a small mountain.   

  In addition, he also got more than 500 spiritual stones, and his net worth exceeded 2,500 spiritual stones.

  "Brother Zhang, all the dragons and pythons in the waters have been checked, and traces of several hidden scale fish have been found. If there are more cases, we need to test the blood essence."

  Lu Xuan said to the steady monk with a tired look, but he was actually very satisfied.

  "Thanks to you, Brother Lu, this time. If it weren't for your help, with our understanding of dragons, we don't know when we can find the traces of hidden scale fish."

  "This is what you should do, brother. If you want the dragons and pythons to grow healthily and quickly in the future, I will come here regularly to draw blood for them to check, so as to avoid being invaded by other demon insects and evil spirits."

  Zhang Hao and others heard the words and nodded in agreement.

  As the sky gradually darkened, Lu Xuan and Huang Yuan decided to go back. The flying boat quickly grew larger, and the two jumped.

  The strong gale whistled in his ears. Lu Xuan looked back and saw Zhang Hao and others still standing there, watching him leave.

  "This scene makes me feel like writing poetry."

  Lu Xuan's mouth curled up, thinking to himself.

  "Lu Xuan was about to set off on his boat

  when he heard singing on the shore.

  The water of Qianlong Lake is a thousand feet deep,

  but it is not as deep as the love my fellow disciples send me..."

  "What a good poem~"

  "Brother Lu, we have arrived at the cave, but it is getting late. I will not go in to ask for a cup of hot tea."

  Huang Yuan drove the flying boat and sent Lu Xuan back to the vicinity of his cave.

  "Okay, Brother Huang, thank you for your hard work. I will have a good drink next time."

  Lu Xuan did not pretend to invite him and said directly.

  After Huang Yuan left, he came to the gate of the courtyard and activated the formation. The thick white fog dissipated, and the gate of the courtyard appeared clearly in front of him.

  When he pushed open the gate, he saw two green eyes at a glance, like ghost fire in the dark.

  "A night owl."

  Lu Xuan sent out a spiritual power, and the light flashed, revealing the surrounding situation clearly in front of him.

  The green eyes were naturally the Cloud-stepping Lynx. Seeing Lu Xuan enter the room, it stretched its limbs lazily, and the two tufts of hair on the tips of its ears trembled slightly with joy.

  "Ah~"

  A low roar with a hint of meaning sounded, and the lynx stepped on its white feet like clouds and left gracefully.

  Lu Xuan returned to the room and saw the young wind falcon lying on the wooden bed without grace, with its round belly facing up, rising and falling with its breathing, its two light blue bird feet spread apart, and from time to time it stretched out its light blue wings, fiddling with something on its body.

  Lu Xuan cleaned up the many white jade bottles in the storage bag and gathered the essence and blood of the same kind of dragon pythons together.

  Although there are many different species among the dragon pythons, most of them are common species, so the overlap is still quite high, and a lot of white jade bottles can be saved.

  After the inventory was completed, Lu Xuan felt a little tired after relaxing after a day of tense mind facing many dragon pythons .

  After washing up, he laid his head on the wooden bed, resting it on the round belly of the young falcon.

  "Comfortable~"

  he couldn't help but sigh, and soon fell asleep.

  The Cloud-stepping Lynx beside him gently landed on the edge of the bed, and his green eyes stared at Lu Xuan in his dream.
