Xu Mu looked into the distance. The woman was none other than Hathaway of the Holy Light Clan.
She was chatting with a blond young man who looked just like her, and the two were walking straight toward Xu Mu and the others.
Through his perception, Xu Mu discovered that the young man was also a member of the Holy Light Clan. His blue eyes contained golden cross-shaped pupils.
Meng Wanyue led the way while Xu Mu focused his perception on the conversation between Hathaway and the young man.
It turned out that the young man was Hathaway’s younger brother.
However, from their conversation, Xu Mu learned that they shared the same father but had different mothers. Hathaway’s status was clearly higher than his.
Hathaway’s younger brother had come here to gain experience and earn spirit stones.
Just then, the two groups met on a narrow path.
The blond young man suddenly greeted Meng Wanyue. “Hello.”
Meng Wanyue gave a slight nod but did not reply.
Xu Mu lowered the brim of his black robe and walked past Hathaway.
Hathaway stopped and looked at their retreating figures. Then she asked softly, “You know them?”
“I only know Meng Wanyue. She’s a competitor who appeared recently and has already won eight matches in a row. Our villas are fairly close to each other.”
Hesius glanced back at them. “She isn’t the important one. The important one is the other woman with her. Her name is Xu Guo.”
“What about her?”
Hathaway asked.
“She’s very young, yet she’s already at the Transcendent Perfection Realm. Yesterday, she nearly defeated Feng Que, who was also at the Transcendent Perfection Realm, in an instant.”
Hesius explained.
“Feng Que of the Heavenly Clan? She’s a fairly famous genius. I didn’t expect that woman to defeat her instantly.”
Hathaway’s face was filled with astonishment. She then said, “Hesius, you know the mission you were assigned here, right?”
“Of course. Besides gaining experience, I also have to earn spirit stones. After all, the Holy Battle Arena is partly owned by our Holy Light Clan. If we don’t take advantage of the opportunity, the other top clans will take everything.”
Hesius continued, “On top of that, we have to find a way to invite those geniuses to join our Holy Light Clan.”
“Good. Keep an eye on this Xu Guo for a few more days. If her strength really is terrifying, find a way to bring her over to our side.”
Hathaway spoke calmly.
“Understood.”
Hesius nodded.
…
Meanwhile, Xu Mu had already arrived at the villa with Meng Wanyue.
The buildings here completely replicated the layout and décor of houses in the outside world.
Aside from the lack of electrical appliances, the room had everything one could need.
Dai Xingluo was lying on the sofa. When she heard someone enter, she immediately sat up.
“Meng Wanyue… Big Brother!”
The moment she saw Xu Mu, she rushed over with a delighted smile.
[Affection +10]
Tong Guoguo, who had been eating an apple and reading on the other side of the room, also closed her book.
[Affection +10]
“Big Brother, Big Brother! How did you know your little sister had advanced again? Did you come all this way just to congratulate me?”
Dai Xingluo was still wearing traditional Han clothing. She wrapped both arms around Xu Mu’s and swayed them back and forth.
Xu Mu glanced at Dai Xingluo. Sure enough, she had also reached the late Grandmaster Realm.
“Looks like you’ve been cultivating diligently lately.”
“Not diligently. I just fought a few matches.”
Dai Xingluo giggled.
“What’s the big deal about reaching the late Grandmaster Realm? I reached it ages ago.”
Meng Wanyue spoke indifferently from the side.
“Shut up!”
Dai Xingluo glared coldly at Meng Wanyue before resuming her playful tugging on Xu Mu’s arm.
“All right, everyone, sit down.”
Xu Mu waved to the others.
Fu Jinyu and Nalan Shisan also removed the hoods of their black robes and sat down on the sofas.
“Guoguo, what are you planning to do next?”
Xu Mu looked at Tong Guoguo. “Do you want to fight a few more matches at the Transcendent level, or do you want to advance directly into the World-Breaking Realm?”
“Advance into the World-Breaking Realm? I’m still a little short of reaching the peak of the World-Breaking Perfection Realm. I probably won’t be able to get there in the short term.”
After speaking, Tong Guoguo took two more bites of her apple before tossing the remaining core into the trash can.
“I have some pills that should be able to get you there.”
Xu Mu still had several Great Tonic Pills in his possession. Originally, he had planned to save them for Xu Ningbing, Ye Tong, and the others to use after they reached higher realms.
But that was no longer necessary.
He had obtained a divine pill furnace. By using eighth- and ninth-grade heavenly treasures, he could refine Great Tonic Pills comparable to divine medicines.
At present, his storage space still contained a large number of eighth- and ninth-grade heavenly treasures.
When Xu Ningbing, Ye Tong, and the others needed pills in the future, Xu Mu could simply refine them for them on the spot.
[Affection +20]
Upon hearing this, the golden gears in the whites of Tong Guoguo’s eyes began spinning rapidly.
She glanced at the others beside her and asked softly, “Is that really all right?”
“What? Are you afraid they’ll get jealous?”
Xu Mu sat down in front of Tong Guoguo and put an arm around her shoulders. “Don’t worry. I have a growth plan for every one of you. For example, once you enter the World-Breaking Realm, you’ll be able to participate in World-Breaking-level battles. You should earn more spirit stones that way, right?”
“That’s true. The World-Breaking-level matches have the largest audiences.”
Tong Guoguo nodded.
“Then earn more spirit stones and buy ninth-grade heavenly treasures for me.”
Xu Mu smiled.
Needless to say, forcibly raising Tong Guoguo to the first level of the World-Breaking Realm with Great Tonic Pills was somewhat excessive.
But this was still their own combat strength, and strength could not be judged by numbers alone.
If Tong Guoguo entered the World-Breaking Realm, Xu Mu’s side would gain another powerful fighter.
The overall strength of his group would rise to another level.
“Since you have pills, then raise me to the World-Breaking Realm.”
Tong Guoguo did not hesitate. “I think it’s much easier to earn spirit stones at the World-Breaking level than at the Transcendent level.”
“That’s true. Guoguo practically has no one left to challenge at her current level. The few people ranked above her aren’t accepting her challenges either. They’re clearly planning to wait for the guaranteed battle one month from now.”
Meng Wanyue explained from the side, “Guoguo is currently ranked fourth. It’ll still take her several months to reach first place.”
Xu Mu thought about it and agreed. “All right, then I’ll raise you to the first level of the World-Breaking Realm.”
As he spoke, he took two Great Tonic Pills from his person and handed them to Tong Guoguo.
“If nothing goes wrong, these two pills should be enough to help you enter the World-Breaking Realm.”
Xu Mu placed them in Tong Guoguo’s hand. “Take them now.”
“Okay!”
Tong Guoguo eagerly swallowed one. The moment the pill touched her tongue, it transformed into a terrifying surge of spiritual energy that rushed into every corner of her body.
Whoosh!
Her red hair began to whip about wildly as yellow qi burst from every pore.
Tong Guoguo’s face flushed bright red. The power within her continued to climb, and she quickly ran out of the living room and onto the lawn outside the villa.
She could clearly feel that her cultivation had reached the peak of the Perfection Realm, but the remaining medicinal power was no longer enough to push her any further.
“Take the second one as well.”
Xu Mu followed her outside.
Tong Guoguo nodded and swallowed the second Great Tonic Pill. The medicinal effect that had gradually begun to stagnate suddenly surged once more.
Whoosh!
The fluctuations of her qi transformed into a wave of air that pressed all the surrounding grass flat against the ground.
Tong Guoguo raised her hand, sensing the earth-shaking changes within her body. Her face lit up with delight as she looked at Xu Mu.
[Affection +30]
“Xu Mu! I really advanced!”
She hurried over to Xu Mu, grabbed his hand, and exclaimed excitedly.
