“Xiao Gui, I didn’t expect you to have such a good relationship with the Owl Clan, too.”
Tushan Ju’s tone was flat, but anyone could hear the sarcasm in it.
“I never thought you were this kind of person! What did Xu Mu ever do to you? Just because he cured my grandmother, you held a grudge and tried to kill him?”
Tushan Rui joined in, her voice full of accusation. “You’ve really disappointed me!”
[Destiny Power -10]
Xiao Gui’s expression turned cold. This time, it wasn’t jealousy that had driven him, but amazement at Xu Mu’s potential.
He had always preferred to nip anything that might threaten him in the bud.
The talent Xu Mu had just displayed had even surpassed his own.
Ever since he had taken his first step onto the path of cultivation, he had always been the one who killed enemies above his level.
But after seeing Xu Mu, he began to doubt himself. If the two of them were at the same level, could he really defeat him?
After thinking it over for a long while, Xiao Gui felt that his odds were less than fifty percent.
Faced with such a threat, he had decided to help the Owl Clan kill Xu Mu.
He just hadn’t expected the Owl Clan’s fourth-tier expert to be so useless.
“Things have come to this, so there’s nothing left for me to explain. In any case, I harbor no ill will toward the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan.”
Knowing that nothing he said now would help, Xiao Gui instantly transformed into a streak of light and vanished into the sky.
“Thank you, Senior. If it weren’t for you, I might have died.”
Xu Mu ignored Yuejian Liqin beside him and cupped his fists toward Tushan Ju.
“Why thank me? I only did what I should have.”
Tushan Ju smiled. “You’ve truly exceeded my expectations. Your medical skills are impressive enough, but your combat strength is just as astonishing. If you entered the World-Breaking realm, I feel like you’d be invincible.”
“Don’t praise me like that. I’ll get conceited.”
Xu Mu laughed.
Tushan Rui also came over to Xu Mu, her face full of concern. “Be careful from now on. Xiao Gui’s strength is unfathomable. If you ever find yourself in danger, remember to come to us.”
“Don’t worry. I will.”
Xu Mu nodded.
After the two members of the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan left, Ying Weiyang came running over from the distance, smiling as she held up the rings.
“Xu Mu, Xu Mu, this guy had two rings. The spirit stones in just one of them would be enough to buy several of me.”
“You really know how to live well.”
Xu Mu took the two rings and gave them a rough inspection. There were indeed quite a few treasures inside. As expected, a World-Breaking expert’s wealth was far beyond that of ordinary people.
Besides spirit stones, there were also various heavenly treasures and cultivation techniques.
“Xu Mu, I did help you this time, so shouldn’t you return my ring? And remove the Gu worm from my body, too.”
Yuejian Liqin removed the hood of her black robe. There was no sign of her face beneath it.
A thin veil still covered her face completely.
“Are you giving yourself too much credit? Did you really help me just now? Without you, that Owl Clan member wouldn’t have dared attack me in the first place. And in the end, it was an expert from the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan who came to my rescue.”
Xu Mu glanced indifferently at Yuejian Liqin. “Do you agree to the conditions I mentioned earlier?”
“I agree! It’s only a few battles. As long as you don’t make me kill my own people, it’s fine.”
Yuejian Liqin spoke calmly.
“Good. I’ll take your word for it.”
Xu Mu opened his storage space, found Yuejian Liqin’s ring, and handed it to her.
The moment Yuejian Liqin caught it, she immediately checked whether anything inside was missing.
Then she stretched out her hand toward Xu Mu. “What about my heavenly treasures? Give them back!”
“I ate them.”
“You… Compensate me! Otherwise, use spirit stones to pay me!”
Yuejian Liqin’s voice turned cold.
“You’re awfully greedy. I returned all the cultivation techniques to you exactly as they were. That’s already me showing you plenty of consideration.”
Xu Mu shrugged.
“You’re ruthless.”
Yuejian Liqin continued, “And remove the Gu worm from my body, too.”
“That Gu worm hasn’t affected you at all. Why do you want it removed?”
“I don’t like being under someone else’s control. I can agree to help you, but you can’t control me.”
Yuejian Liqin tilted her head slightly.
“Fine.”
Xu Mu raised his hand.
A tiny dark-golden speck of light flew out of her nostril and landed in Xu Mu’s palm before disappearing.
Yuejian Liqin gently rubbed her nose, then said, “Anything else? If not, I’m leaving.”
Xu Mu stroked his chin as he considered whether to have her accompany him to the upcoming Gods’ Battlefield.
But after weighing the matter carefully, he decided against it.
Yuejian Liqin’s current filial piety value was only 1. If they came across some top-tier treasure, that level of filial piety wouldn’t be enough to make her truly stand on his side.
Xu Mu decided to rely on himself instead.
“That’s all. Go back for now. If I need you, I’ll have Miyako Fuka pass the message to you.”
“Fine.”
Yuejian Liqin pulled her black-robe hood back over her head and disappeared.
Xu Mu let out a breath before walking toward the corpse of the third-tier expert in the distance.
When he had used the Spirit-Devouring Sacred Gu, he had discovered that the Sacred Gu’s mother body was still inside its cocoon and had not reacted.
The small Sacred Gu then transformed into a dark-golden beam of light and spilled from his hand, devouring the corpse.
Its speed was much slower this time. It took a full twenty seconds to consume the entire body.
Afterward, the small Sacred Gu returned to Xu Mu’s finger.
“Xu Mu, where are we going next?”
Ying Weiyang asked from beside him.
“We’ll stay in the Royal City for the next few days.”
Xu Mu took Ying Weiyang’s hand and headed toward the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan’s town.
The main reason was that communication was impossible here, and he had also promised Chen Xuan that he would remain here for the next few days.
…
Xu Mu and Ying Weiyang entered a restaurant.
He ordered the local-style grape wine, along with beef and a vegetable salad.
“Xu Mu, I want roast chicken.”
Ying Weiyang pointed at the menu.
“All right. Then bring us five roast chickens as well.”
Xu Mu looked at the waiter.
“Coming right up!”
The waiter immediately left.
“Heehee, you’re so good to me.”
Ying Weiyang beamed at Xu Mu.
[Affection +10]
Xu Mu waved his hand dismissively. “I just picked up so many spirit stones. What else would I use them for if not to feed you?”
“Wow!”
Ying Weiyang gazed at Xu Mu with adoration. “If I weren’t afraid of pain, I’d really let you eat me.”
[Affection +20]
“Enough nonsense.”
Xu Mu helplessly waved her off.
“Have you heard? Redemption has appeared again recently and directly wiped out the experts of an entire race.”
An old man at the neighboring table suddenly spoke.
Xu Mu frowned slightly. He hadn’t expected Redemption to be in the Inner Realm as well.
“Wasn’t wiping them out only natural? Everyone in the Inner Realm is living in fear now. The races that surrounded and attacked Redemption back then are probably regretting it so badly their guts have turned green.”
Another middle-aged man chuckled.
“Do you have a death wish? Taking Redemption’s side is the same as taking the Great Wilderness’s side. You won’t even know how you died.”
The old man spoke in a scolding tone.
The middle-aged man gave an awkward laugh and stopped gossiping about Redemption.
Xu Mu and Ying Weiyang continued eating while listening to the various stories circulating around the Inner Realm.
Just then, a middle-aged man dressed in leather armor entered the restaurant and walked over to Xu Mu’s table.
“Sir, my employer requests your presence.”
The middle-aged man spoke respectfully.

ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.

In the end, when his body is discovered, he is still clutching half a moldy fried dough stick in his hand. Fully aware of the plot, Long Aotian is determined to change his fate, starting with the female lead! In the beginning, the female lead lacks confidence: "Big brother, I hope I didn't scare you?" In the middle, the female lead treads carefully: "Brother Long, please don't hit me, okay?" Later on, the female lead becomes coquettishly clingy: "Aotian, it's time to pay the 'public grain' tonight." Long Aotian's legs go weak, and he feels like crying: "I taught you to be thick-skinned, not shameless!"
