Chapter 77: Chapter 77

Li Shuning took out a brush, dipped it in the liquid from that basin, and began to draw.

With a single stroke, she could draw a talisman in one go, a continuous line without interruption.

Chairman Liang and others couldn’t understand at all because those talismans were written with runes they hadn’t seen before, and there were many types whose functions were unknown.

Watching Li Shuning’s fast pace, drawing talismans one after another, they were somewhat shocked. Could these talismans really be used?

After finishing the drawing, Li Shuning breathed a sigh of relief. Despite the fast pace, there were so many, and controlling the infusion of True Yuan during the drawing made her feel a bit tired.

There were a total of 2,200 talismans. Li Shuning kept 200 and gave the rest to Chairman Liang.

"Chairman Liang, these talismans are life-saving tools in critical moments. You can distribute them to magicians as needed, the distribution method is up to you."

It took over an hour to draw the talismans, and then Li Shuning began to take out the alchemy furnace, threw in a bunch of True Fire for preheating, and started to select spirit plants.

Chairman Liang discussed with several others, and then those with relatively deep strength each took twenty talismans, after which Chairman Liang left. They had set a cultivation limit, reaching a certain cultivation level would grant them a talisman.

Those who were really weak were not planned to be given any. If this thing was really effective, it should be given to more useful people.

Resources were limited.

Li Shuning began alchemy. The furnace was average but could only be made do with. She produced a few Foundation Establishment Pills, many Qi Nourishing Pills (which restore True Yuan), and two Golden Core Pills.

Li Shuning did not expect there to be materials for Golden Core Pills here; she thought that in this world, achieving Foundation Establishment Great Perfection was already the pinnacle.

After all, during the Foundation Establishment, without using Foundation Establishment Pills, it was already quite challenging. If one forcefully attempted Core Formation without a Golden Core Pill, it could lead to serious problems.

Now with the Golden Core Pill, she could attempt a breakthrough.

However, she decided to first resolve the crisis in Lishui City before attempting the breakthrough. After all, during Core Formation, there would be a Heavenly Tribulation, causing considerable disturbances. If at that time demons or monsters invaded, failing the breakthrough would be one thing, but ruining her cultivation would be disastrous.

Li Shuning kept the Golden Core Pill and some Qi Nourishing Pills and gave the rest to Chairman Liang.

After completing these tasks, Li Shuning began to craft Flying Swords.

After five days of hard work, Li Shuning finally got everything done.

After finishing, she went back to rest. She had been busy these few days, and True Yuan was severely depleted. She needed to restore her state to its best, never knowing when those demons or monsters would invade again.

The magicians in Lishui City were somewhat excited, realizing Li Shuning worked hard for several days to craft many items, providing everyone more methods of survival when facing demons or monsters.

Except for Zhou Jinyun, all the magicians felt grateful to Li Shuning.

After recovering, Li Shuning was eating with her parents when she received a call from the security pavilion at Yongyi Garden saying someone named Wu Lei was looking for Li Fu.

Li Shuning sneered, thought for a moment, and said, "Tell him, not seeing him. All ties were severed cleanly back when we were at Jingtang Village."

Unsure of Wu Lei’s reaction, Li Shuning chose not to care.

At least she had given Wu Lei a chance back then; if he had any friendship with Li Fu, he wouldn’t have acted that way. He was self-centered and selfish, not to mention, the storyline allowed him to watch Li Shuning live alone and struggle, yet he embezzled fifty thousand yuan.

She did not expect Wu Lei to be quite angry, wondering why the Li family didn’t help when they clearly could.

He had already found out that Li Fu, for some reason, got involved with the Gao Group and moved to the highly secure Yongyi Garden.

But the house moved from Jingtang Village was always vacant. He asked, and that house belonged to Li Fu’s family. Even if vacant, it wouldn’t be assigned to others.

Currently without a place to live, only capable of residing on the square, the weather getting colder made it unbearable. After getting the information, he planned to appeal to Li Fu, believing Li Fu would help; then, the vacant house would be his.

Unexpectedly, he was directly blocked by Li Shuning.

Recalling Li Shuning’s name had become known among ordinary people recently, as a celebrity, would she be afraid of negative influence?

Wu Lei pondered and began spreading rumors, saying the Li family was ungrateful. They helped them when they were poor, but now when they wanted to borrow a house, they were refused, even unwilling to meet their poor neighbors.

Li Shuning’s reputation now wasn’t hollow. Such rumors quickly led to investigations, creating awareness of past events.

Li Fu never liked taking advantage of others, and Wu Lei’s past actions were despicable; what kind of friend acts like that? Now, he dared to spread rumors. Without Li Shuning, the entire Lishui City would be in danger; how could they let Li Shuning suffer injustice?

Wu Lei once felt complacent, imagining Li Shuning apologizing, intending to manipulate her to live in a mansion.

Unexpectedly, instead of Li Shuning, he encountered a Lishui City official.

Wu Lei’s family was driven away from the square, moved to the street near the ancient city wall, a more dangerous spot. If demons or monsters broke through the ancient city wall, they would be the first affected.

Conversely, the square, being far from the ancient city wall, was relatively safe.

Wu Lei refused to move, but was threatened with expulsion from Lishui City if he dared to cause more trouble; hence, Wu Lei became afraid.

Leaving Lishui City at this moment was seeking death; outside, it’s full of demons and monsters, and he was just an ordinary person.

Reluctantly, Wu Lei and his family moved. Thᴇ link to the origɪn of this information rᴇsts ɪn ɴovelfire.net

His wife blamed him, stating Wu Lei didn’t ingratiate himself with Li Shuning, instead offending her, worsening their condition.

Wu Lei retaliated by beating his wife, and the two quarreling made for a big farce.

Yet, Wu Lei dared not provoke Li Shuning again after that.

Li Shuning was unaware of all this, nor did she care.

Li Shuning kept some talismans for her parents and Gao Fei.

After teaching them how to use them, Li Shuning went to the ancient city wall to prepare for guarding. She always felt uneasy as if those demons and monsters were too patient.

The talismans drawn by Li Shuning were easy to use for magicians; with True Yuan, they could be detonated, but for ordinary people, it was a bit troublesome.

Yet, there was a way; Li Shuning infused her True Yuan into a special container, given to her family and Gao Fei. They only needed to contact the talisman with the container to detonate it.
