Shi Fumeng covered her mouth and laughed, her laughter trembling like a flower branch.
"What are you laughing at?"
Xu Mu asked, frowning.
"Big brother, you don't even know how to lie. It's not that I'm narcissistic, but I can be considered a beauty, right? Why are you not interested in me at all, and yet you say it's for girls?"
Shi Fumeng put her hand down, "Do you think I'd fall for such a poor lie?"
"You're a beauty in the eyes of some people, but not to me. There's no perfect beauty in the world. Everyone's aesthetics are different. For example, I like big ones. With that little meat of yours, is it enough to feed a child?"
Xu Mu looked at Shi Fumeng's chest and curled his lips.
"You..."
Shi Fumeng immediately covered her chest.
[Favorability -1]
She took a deep breath, and then said coldly: "Shameless! Perverted!"
"Dismiss the hundred schools of thought, revere only Confucianism. I am a Confucianist, I just like Confucianism, and you can't do it. We are not on the same path."
Xu Mu stood with his hands behind his back, his face proud.
"Damn! Xu Mu, you are really shameless enough. Do you think I don't understand?"
Shi Fumeng was furious. If she didn't want to get his Heaven-rank cultivation method, she would have gone up and slapped his mouth in the morning.
"Sigh! You're clearly vulgar."
Xu Mu shook his head slightly, "Do you have anything else? If not, please leave."
"You..."
Before Shi Fumeng could finish, Feng Yue walked out from the neighbor's villa.
Seeing Xu Mu standing at the door, she smiled and came over to greet him, "Morning."
[Favorability +10]
"What morning? It's almost time for lunch."
Xu Mu was a bit helpless. Feng Yue seemed to be having a better time than him right now.
The commercial struggle between Ye Chen and the Xu family did not affect her beauty pills.
Her company was developing well in its comfort zone, and Feng Yue herself was sleeping until she woke up naturally every day.
"Oh, who is this sister? Boss's luck with women is really impressive."
Feng Yue noticed Shi Fumeng next to him and couldn't help teasing.
"Stop spouting nonsense, we just casually know each other."
Xu Mu said indifferently, "Maybe she's after my money. I don't want this kind of realistic woman."
He had already hinted very obviously. Although Shi Fumeng's favorability towards him was still positive.
But her filial piety value had not changed at all. Coupled with what the person from the Guanxiong clan said before.
It was easy to guess that her goal was his cultivation method.
"Xu Mu, I came to communicate with you properly, but you treat me like this. You make me very angry. You will regret it!"
Shi Fumeng pointed viciously at Xu Mu, then turned around, tossed her long hair, and strode away.
Xu Mu didn't say anything more. It was best if she left.
Although he knew her purpose, keeping such a person around would mean having to be on guard sooner or later, afraid that she would do something against him.
This would make Xu Mu very tired. He was originally a person who hated trouble.
However, Xu Mu felt that since the other party came to him on her own initiative, she shouldn't leave so quickly.
"Boss, where did you get this romantic debt from?"
Feng Yue laughed mischievously.
"Is your butt itching?"
Xu Mu glared at Feng Yue, "I met this woman in the ruins. She should be eyeing my cultivation method."
"Boss, you don't need to explain to me. I don't care anyway."
Feng Yue waved her hand with a smile, "I'm going to the company first, and then I plan to continue looking for Wan Yue and Xingluo to train."
"Since you saw it, I'll give it to you first. This is made from a divine medicine. Only by following me can you get one."
Xu Mu took out a golden pill from his body and handed it to Feng Yue.
[Favorability +15]
Feng Yue swallowed the pill with a smile, "Thank you, Boss."
As soon as she finished speaking, she felt a wave of air in her stomach, instantly filling her whole body, making her blush.
Such a huge medicinal effect, even if she didn't know what a divine medicine was, she knew it was very precious.
Suddenly, Feng Yue felt as if she had broken through a boundary. She raised her hand and said, "Boss, I seem to have advanced. This should be the Gang Qi you guys talk about."
Xu Mu stepped forward, grabbed Feng Yue's wrist, felt it carefully, and then smiled: "It is indeed Gang Qi. You can burst the Qi in your body out. This realm is already considered stepping into the ranks of experts."
The current Feng Yue had finally caught up with the main group.
Among the people around Xu Mu, Meng Wanyue and Dai Xingluo were currently the strongest, both having reached the mid-stage of Divine Power.
After that was Xu Ningbing. Although she didn't have as many pills as Ye Tong and Ye Yu, she had luckily taken a divine medicine before.
She was already at the late stage of Gang Qi.
As for Ye Tong and Ye Yu, they were both at the mid-stage of Gang Qi. Compared to Ye Tong, Ye Yu's strength was slightly higher.
However, Feng Yue caught up with the main group after taking the divine medicine.
Currently, none of the others had taken the divine medicine.
Bai Yi had just started, and her current strength was still inferior to Feng Yue.
"Boss, thank you. If it wasn't for you, I might never have reached this realm in my life."
Feng Yue felt her own power, her face full of emotion.
[Favorability +20]
"Work hard. I like to be kept by women. I'll rely on you guys to protect me in the future."
Xu Mu said with a smile.
Feng Yue nodded.
After sending Feng Yue away, Xu Mu first returned to his own villa. He went to his bedroom and checked the surveillance.
Sure enough, someone sneaked in, but they didn't destroy anything. They just checked every room, found no one, and left.
Xu Mu returned to the sofa and took out the Nokia he got before.
He read the text messages one by one, spending a long time before finishing reading all hundreds of text messages.
He took a deep breath, "I didn't expect this second brother to be working for them."
Putting the phone away, Xu Mu didn't plan to go to Meng Wanyue and the others.
Ye Chen's people would definitely continue to track him. He had already taken them to see Chen Xuan today.
He didn't want these people to meet everyone around him.
Just then, Xu Mu's phone suddenly rang. He took it out and saw it was Zhong Qianqian calling.
When he took her to the county town yesterday, Xu Mu had already spent money to buy her a new phone and a laptop.
"Xu Mu, it's me, Zhong Qianqian."
"I know, did something happen?"
Xu Mu asked with a smile.
"I've already rented a house and used someone else's identity information. Ye Chen definitely won't find me."
Zhong Qianqian said over there, "Just now, I activated the laptop left on Ye Chen's side and heard a message."
"What message?"
Xu Mu asked, frowning.
"I'll just send you the audio."
As soon as Zhong Qianqian finished speaking, a several-minute recording popped up on Xu Mu's phone.
After Xu Mu hung up the phone, he clicked on the recording.
"Xiao Ran, there is a traitor among my subordinates, but those people can't enter our core circle. Even if there is a traitor, I don't care. What I care about are the people around me."
The opening of the recording was Ye Chen's voice.
"Is the Dragon King suspecting me?"
Xiao Ran's voice also came over.
"I don't want to doubt you, but the traitor this time is Meng Wanyue. You two were the closest, so I need you to prove your loyalty. Only then will I trust you with important matters in the future."
"What do you want me to do, Dragon King?"
"Wear a hidden camera. I want a live feed of the entire thing so I can watch you kill her."
