Hearing the name Wu Tian, Xu Mu's expression instantly grew solemn. This Brother Evil God's Destiny Level was about the same as Ye Chen's, so he definitely wouldn't be easy to deal with.
"I'm at home right now. You can come over immediately."
Xu Mu spoke into his phone.
After speaking, he put his phone away.
"Something came up again?"
Feng Yue placed the cultivation technique manual on the sofa and stood up to ask.
"Yeah."
Xu Mu nodded. "Take a break for now, and study this cultivation technique later."
"I'll do my best. But boss, I still want to learn how to fight. If you make me fight someone right now, all I know how to do is pull hair."
Feng Yue smiled at Xu Mu.
"Sure, I'll find time to get you a teacher."
Xu Mu felt it was necessary to bring Xu Ningbing out to spar with Feng Yue.
However, having recently acquired so many cultivation techniques without giving any to Xu Ningbing made him feel a bit guilty.
After a moment of thought, Xu Mu figured that gathering everyone together and having them learn cultivation techniques from each other wouldn't be a bad idea.
With everyone gathered together, Xu Mu could also harvest a larger amount of Justice Points all at once.
Recently, since Ye Tong and Meng Wanyue's affection levels had maxed out, he had lost two of his main sources.
He definitely needed to obtain them from other people.
After leaving the place, Xu Mu returned to his own villa. He casually found a plastic bag and packed the Hongyuan Pills and Qihai Pills that Tantai Quan needed this time.
After waiting there for about twenty minutes, his perception caught sight of Tantai Quan.
There were three people coming over this time: a driver, a middle-aged man wearing sunglasses, and finally Tantai Quan herself.
The Range Rover stopped in front of Xu Mu's villa. Tantai Quan stepped out of the car alone and rang the doorbell.
Xu Mu leisurely walked into the courtyard and opened the front gate.
Today, Tantai Quan was still wearing a gorgeous off-the-shoulder Hanfu, revealing a straight and deep cleavage.
She held a jade smoking pipe in her left hand, and her beautiful face wore a smile that could captivate all living beings.
Seeing Tantai Quan, Xu Mu even felt that Feng Yue seemed like a pure and innocent beauty in comparison.
It wasn't that Tantai Quan was prettier than Feng Yue; it was just that Feng Yue truly couldn't match this charm that seeped right into the bones.
"Little brother, is it convenient for me to come in?"
Tantai Quan asked with a smile.
"Why are you acting so formal? Come in."
Xu Mu stepped aside to make way.
The two of them walked into the villa's living room together, and Xu Mu motioned for Tantai Quan to sit on the sofa.
He handed the plastic bag from the coffee table to Tantai Quan. "Count them. There are ninety pills in total. Forty are given to you for free, and the rest is a four-to-six split."
Tantai Quan took a rough glance at the pills and asked with a smile, "Were these all refined using the pill furnace I gave you?"
"That's right."
Xu Mu nodded.
Tantai Quan casually took out a Qihai Pill and popped it into her mouth. Before she could even swallow, the power of the Qihai Pill was instantly absorbed by her body.
Her eyes widened perfectly round. It was indeed incredible, much stronger than the Qihai Pills she had commissioned others to refine before.
If she had met Xu Mu earlier, she felt that the overall strength of her people could have been raised by at least another level.
"Thank you. I'll gladly accept these."
Tantai Quan tied the plastic bag into a bow and placed it aside. "Next, let's talk about Wu Tian."
"What about him?"
Xu Mu asked curiously.
"He recently robbed a batch of our goods. Although there weren't any precious natural treasures, it still caused us heavy losses."
Tantai Quan looked at Xu Mu indifferently, "I'm very curious as to why he would call me cheap."
"Huh?"
Hearing this, Xu Mu scratched his head in some embarrassment. "I don't know."
"Are you sure you don't know?"
Tantai Quan smiled, observing Xu Mu's expression. "He also asked me if it felt good to be serviced by a younger man."
"What the hell? What exactly happened?"
Xu Mu asked with a frown.
"Simply put, he robbed our goods. Once would have been fine, but he actually robbed us a second time. Later, he was caught by the experts from our Lumang Mountain, and we took the second batch of goods back. That's when he started cursing at me."
Tantai Quan took a pinch of tobacco from the cloth pouch hanging beneath her jade pipe and continued, "He said I had been with a few old men, and mentioned me being serviced by a younger man. Judging by his expression at the time, it didn't seem like he was lying."
Hearing this, Xu Mu was full of surprise. "You guys caught him?"
"That's right. But later, he unleashed a powerful technique. His cultivation base skyrocketed in an instant, and he escaped."
Tantai Quan took out a match and lit her pipe.
Xu Mu broke into a smile. It wasn't a technique. Barring any surprises, he was possessed by that old grandpa spirit.
"I understand now. The reason he cursed at you is because of me."
"What did you say to him?"
Tantai Quan smiled; she knew Xu Mu was the one pulling the strings.
"After I left that day, he chased after me. He wanted to snatch the medicinal herbs you gave me, and he also told me something."
Xu Mu sat down on the single sofa opposite Tantai Quan.
"What did he say?"
"He said he had his eyes on you. Seeing that you and I had a good relationship, he told me to stay away from you."
Xu Mu smiled and shrugged.
"And then you told him that I had serviced a few old men?"
Tantai Quan wasn't angry; she just found it somewhat hilarious.
"Exactly. I said that in order to survive in the past, you married a few old men. Now that you are capable, you found a boy toy like me, and I told him we've been married for a few years."
Xu Mu said to Tantai Quan, "If you think I went overboard, I apologize."
"It was indeed quite overboard. So, how are you going to compensate your big sister?"
Tantai Quan revealed a charming smile.
Although what he said was disgusting, Xu Mu's trick was indeed effective. From the look in Wu Tian's eyes, she could clearly see his disgust.
It was no longer the lecherous gaze he had given her back in the ruins.
This was a good thing for Tantai Quan. Being entangled with a person like him would only bring her trouble.
Xu Mu's lie had indeed helped her out.
"I can compensate you, but you have to compensate me too."
Xu Mu pointed at the pills next to Tantai Quan. "Last time, I was heavily injured trying to protect the medicinal herbs you gave me. How should we settle that?"
"No need for compensation, your big sister yields."
Tantai Quan raised her hands in surrender, causing the two thunderous peaks on her chest to seemingly collide and squeeze together.
Seeing such a spectacular sight, Xu Mu felt it could instantly one-shot a squishy character.
Tantai Quan stood up from the sofa, carrying a plastic bag. "If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving."
Xu Mu nodded and stood up as well. "Still, be careful of Wu Tian. If you really can't deal with him, you can ask me for help."
Hearing this, Tantai Quan smiled and looked Xu Mu up and down. "You don't actually want to be my boy toy, do you?"
[Affection +6]
"Even if I were to be a boy toy, my standards are very high."
Xu Mu waved his hand dismissively.
He could tell that Wu Tian was not someone to be trifled with and had to be dealt with personally.
Especially since Fu Jinyu was also destined to be part of Wu Tian's harem in the storyline.
It hadn't been easy for him to find a fighter like Fu Jinyu. If she got poached by Wu Tian, Xu Mu wouldn't be able to bear it.
Especially since he had already established a motorboating contract with her.
lities. One day, Qi Yuan was buying groceries when he unfortunately came face-to-face with a monster. Just when he thought he was going to die on the spot, he suddenly heard the monster's thoughts... "This aura, he's definitely not an ordinary master!" "So terrifying, so terrifying." "A fight with my back against the wall, I can't take it anymore." Qi Yuan: Ah, no one told me that my awakened ability isn't telepathy, but rather the stronger my enemies imagine me to be, the stronger I truly become.

e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
