Chapter 53

"Little Junior Brother!" Qin Shuang, like Chu Xiong, called Bu Zheng 'Little Junior Brother.' When she called out to Bu Zheng, Chu Xiong also shouted, clearly they both wanted to ask Bu Zheng something.

"How many of your Heavenly Thunder Pills do you have left?"

"Not many. The materials are scarce, so I can only make about a dozen to play with. Now I have ten, oh, nine." As Bu Zheng answered, he threw another one. These three throws were either aimed at the ironhead snake's vital points or its blood crest, as these were the most obvious injuries.

Since he was going to bother this snake, he had to make its injuries worse.

The ironhead snake, of course, tried to dodge, but it was helpless. It couldn't move without aggravating its injuries, and Bu Zheng was far away, making it impossible to deliver a fatal blow.

But if this continued, its injuries would only get worse. It was a vicious cycle, a deadlock...

"Oh, you still dare to dodge, let's see you dodge this!" Bu Zheng threw two more, both hitting vital points. His throwing technique was very accurate, as if he had practiced it.

Indeed, he had practiced, using stones to hit wild rabbits. Once he mastered the movement patterns of the rabbits, he never missed.

Now, Bu Zheng might have been a bit off at first, but later he could hit wherever he wanted, no matter how the ironhead snake tried to dodge.

He had already mastered the movement patterns of the ironhead snake, and the last throw even entered the wound at the snake's vital point, dealing a critical hit.

"..."

Finally, under the stunned gaze of Qin Shuang and the others, the ironhead snake, with its heart destroyed, fell to the ground. It died with great reluctance, in a way that it found extremely frustrating.

What, what is this? He actually killed the ironhead snake. Do we still need to worry about escaping? There's no need at all.

"Oh, it seems to be dead. Is it faking it?" Bu Zheng threw another Heavenly Thunder Pill, completely destroying the vital point. This behavior was truly wasteful, but since the Heavenly Thunder Pills were made by himself, using one to verify the survival of a dangerous target was worth it; he couldn't risk his own life to check!

"Senior Brother Qi, it seems to be dead. Go check it out."

"..."

Qi Tian didn't react. Even now, he and the other two felt that the scene before them was unreal. The ironhead snake actually died like this, a result no one could have predicted.

While this achievement couldn't be solely attributed to Bu Zheng, as he only used the Heavenly Thunder Pills to kill an already helpless ironhead snake, it was also because of his Heavenly Thunder Pills that they were the only thing capable of killing the snake. This couldn't be denied, and he indeed played the most critical role.

This left people unsure how to evaluate Bu Zheng's actions...

However, in fact, Qin Shuang and the others already considered that Bu Zheng had saved their lives. Even if he had only given them some healing medicine or led them away, it would still count as saving their lives, let alone in this situation.

Bu Zheng's Heavenly Thunder Pills were indeed interesting, with enough power to breach the defenses of a level six beast. This was something ordinary Heavenly Thunder Pills couldn't accomplish.

Of course, this doesn't mean that Bu Zheng's Heavenly Thunder Pills could kill a martial artist at the Five Meridians realm. This was only possible in a specific environment. Under normal circumstances, a Five Meridians martial artist would never let the Heavenly Thunder Pills touch them. Even a martial artist at Chu Xiong's level wouldn't be easily hit under normal conditions.

Unless Bu Zheng had a large stockpile or was in a specific situation, the Heavenly Thunder Pills were mainly for self-defense and couldn't represent his true strength.

When Bu Zheng refined these Heavenly Thunder Pills, he was very cautious. Even with all the materials, he couldn't make many. Given his current schedule, he could only refine one batch per day, and each batch only produced one pill.

So, it was impossible to have a large stockpile. The specific situation was a different matter, but under normal circumstances, the Heavenly Thunder Pills were only effective against martial artists below the Three Meridians realm, and even then, it required some skill.

"It's completely dead..." Qi Tian confirmed. This time, the crisis was thoroughly resolved. Not only did they survive, but they also killed a beast, which was a significant gain.

This level six beast, its entire body is a treasure. Its flesh and blood must contain more spiritual energy, and most importantly, its beast core must be of high grade.

"So, what should we do with this snake? Roast it and eat it, or make snake soup? This big snake can last us a while." Bu Zheng came to the dead ironhead snake, gesturing as if it were already his meal.

"Right, how long can it last? This time we have a feast." Like Bu Zheng, Qi Tian also thought of food first.

"Ah, you two food lovers, do you know how important this large beast is to us? If we offer it to the sect, we will definitely receive commendation." Chu Xiong said.

"Is it just commendation? Then forget it, I'd rather keep it and eat it slowly." Bu Zheng immediately replied. Commendation meant nothing to him.

"It's not just commendation. There will be contribution points, which will make us more important disciples. You might even be promoted from a laborer disciple to an outer sect disciple, or even a regular disciple." Chu Xiong said irritably. The corpse of a level six beast was enough to change many things in the Qingyun Sword Sect.

Because the value of a level six beast's corpse could elevate the Qingyun Sword Sect's high-level combat strength, and for a sect, high-level combat strength is a crucial structure.

"Being an outer sect disciple isn't interesting. How many contribution points will there be?" Bu Zheng ignored the outer sect disciple part, his eyes fixed on Chu Xiong, only caring about the contribution points.

"If you don't want anything else, the contribution points will definitely be in the tens of thousands. However, I don't recommend you do this. Contribution points aren't very useful unless you lack cultivation techniques. But this time, you can directly ask for cultivation techniques, which would be much more cost-effective than contribution points." Chu Xiong replied, seeing Bu Zheng's money-obsessed look, he didn't know what to say.

"Cultivation techniques? I don't need them. I'll take the contribution points. Tens of thousands of contribution points, that's over a thousand taels of silver. I can go back and buy a dozen acres of land, build a house, and even take two concubines..." Bu Zheng started calculating how to spend the thousand taels of silver, as if he already had the money.

This left Qin Shuang speechless. Was she really saved by such a person?
