Xu Mu continued refining pills for a few more hours. Now that he was a Rank Seven Alchemist, the efficacy of the pills he refined had reached a whole new level.
He lay on the living room sofa to rest for a moment, then called Meng Wanyue to ask where they were.
Upon learning that they were still cultivating at the usual place, Xu Mu drove over.
When he arrived, he found that besides Meng Wanyue and Dai Xingluo, Feng Yue was also there.
"Brother."
Seeing Xu Mu, Dai Xingluo smiled and came up to greet him, holding onto his arm.
[Affection +10]
Feng Yue also noticed Xu Mu, and an affection notification appeared above her head as well.
[Affection +10]
Even with Feng Yue present, Xu Mu didn't hide anything and directly took out a spatial ring.
"Xingluo, this is for you."
Xu Mu handed the ring to Dai Xingluo.
"Brother, are you planning to propose to me?"
Dai Xingluo looked at the ring and lowered her head a bit shyly.
Seeing this, Meng Wanyue and Feng Yue both had slightly serious expressions.
"This is a spatial ring, a treasure I went through a lot of trouble to get."
Xu Mu felt a bit helpless.
"What? The legendary spatial ring?"
Hearing this, Dai Xingluo's expression suddenly changed. She immediately picked up a longsword nearby and activated the formation on the ring.
Subsequently, the longsword in her hand vanished before their eyes.
[Affection +30]
Dai Xingluo danced with joy. In her former sect, only the sect master possessed a treasure of this level.
She never expected Xu Mu to actually give such a thing to her.
"Brother, you are the best brother in the world!"
Dai Xingluo threw herself at Xu Mu, wrapping her arms around his neck and hanging onto him like a koala.
"Alright, come down."
Xu Mu patted Dai Xingluo's back.
Even when giving treasures, there was an order to it. Giving it to Dai Xingluo first would make her feel prioritized.
Naturally, the affection she generated would be much higher.
It wouldn't be too late to give one to Meng Wanyue afterwards. After all, Meng Wanyue's affection was already maxed out, so she couldn't provide any justice points.
"Oh my! The weather is so hot today. Let me take off my ring and cool down for a bit."
Dai Xingluo had already gotten down from Xu Mu. She walked over to Meng Wanyue, twisting the ring on her ring finger and taking it off.
Seeing this, Meng Wanyue gritted her teeth in anger.
"Wanyue, this is yours."
Xu Mu took out another ring and handed it to Meng Wanyue.
Even though Meng Wanyue couldn't provide affection points, she still deserved a share of such a treasure.
"Tch! I thought brother's love was only for me. What a playboy."
Dai Xingluo puffed out her cheeks and muttered.
"If you don't want it, give the ring back to me."
Xu Mu reached out his hand and said.
"No way! Brother gave this to me, and even brother can't take it back."
Dai Xingluo immediately grabbed her own hand and said with a giggle.
Xu Mu chuckled lightly, then walked over to Feng Yue and placed a hand on her shoulder. "You're not upset that I didn't give you one, right?"
"Boss, you're underestimating me a bit. I'm a woman who knows how to be content."
Feng Yue wasn't upset, just slightly envious.
But she also understood that this kind of treasure was mainly for fighting outside, used to store weapons and supplies.
She wasn't going out to fight right now, so naturally, she didn't need it.
"That's good. I only managed to get two. Ye Tong and Ye Yu don't have one either, but don't worry, it will be your turn next time."
Xu Mu said with a smile.
[Affection +10]
Feng Yue took a deep look at Xu Mu. If even Ye Tong didn't have one, then she cared even less.
She didn't expect Xu Mu to specifically explain it to her, afraid she would be angry.
This boss was really treating her like an outsider.
...
After distributing the spatial rings, Xu Mu called Jiang Huihui. She also had a share of the divine pill in his hand.
Upon learning that Jiang Huihui was currently at the Jiang City airport, Xu Mu immediately drove over to deliver the pill to her.
In just twenty minutes, he arrived by the street outside the airport, where Jiang Huihui was waiting on an electric scooter.
"Huihui."
Xu Mu smiled and walked over.
Today, Jiang Huihui wasn't wearing her cleaner uniform; instead, she wore jeans and a casual jacket.
Coupled with her heroic-looking face and casually flowing long hair.
It gave her a look that was both beautiful and handsome.
"Xu Mu, what do you need me for?"
Jiang Huihui asked with a smile.
[Affection +10]
"Eat this pill first. It's the same divine pill from last time."
Xu Mu took out a golden pill and handed it to Jiang Huihui.
Jiang Huihui took it and swallowed it in one gulp without a second thought. She trusted Xu Mu a hundred percent.
A terrifying power instantly spread through her body and rushed to her brain, causing her cheeks to flush red.
"Holy crap! What a strong effect. I feel like I'm about to break through."
Jiang Huihui looked at Xu Mu in disbelief.
"About to break through?"
Xu Mu of course knew that Jiang Huihui was currently in the middle stage of the Divine Power realm, so he took out another five Qi Sea Pills and three Hongyuan Pills. "Here!"
"This... is too precious."
Jiang Huihui was a bit stunned; it made her feel guilty to accept.
He was treating her so well; would it even be fair to him if she didn't pledge herself to him?
[Affection +15]
"Just take it. No matter what, you are considered my fiancee."
Xu Mu said with a smile.
"Then I... won't hold back."
Jiang Huihui first put away the pills, then immediately took out some chewing gum. "For you."
Xu Mu took it without hesitation. "What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be in Yang City?"
"There's a sensitive figure taking a flight with Jiang City as her destination. The higher-ups asked me to monitor her."
Jiang Huihui took out her phone and pulled up a photo. "That's her."
When Xu Mu saw the phone, his eyes immediately went wide. "Holy crap! It's her?"
The photo was exactly of Tong Guoguo. She had red shoulder-length short hair, a tall and slender figure, and a perfectly proportioned oval face.
However, her eyes in the picture weren't red, and the whites of her eyes weren't transparent. She had clearly disguised herself.
"You know her?"
Jiang Huihui asked curiously.
"If I'm not mistaken, she's here to deal with me... Holy crap! She's here!"
Xu Mu swept the area with his perception and immediately noticed the red-haired woman walking out of the airport.
She stopped by a trash can and used her fingers to pinch her eyes, taking out two large colored contact lenses.
These contacts, aside from the black irises, extended outward to cover the whites of the eyes.
Tossing the contacts into the trash can, she put on sunglasses and started walking in their direction.
Xu Mu's mind raced, and he immediately said, "Huihui, let's pretend. You're my girlfriend, but I'm having an affair."
"Okay."
Jiang Huihui nodded heavily and immediately got into character. She took out her phone and demanded, "Who is this woman?"
"We're already broken up, mind your own business!"
Xu Mu said loudly, then turned and walked away.
In the distance, Tong Guoguo heard the familiar voice and looked over, discovering it was none other than Xu Mu.
She found it somewhat unbelievable. This was too much of a coincidence.
No, it was a cursed fate.
Tong Guoguo clenched her fists, ready to make a move right then and there. However, she noticed a woman pulling and tugging at Xu Mu, so she put on a face mask and quietly sneaked closer to listen.
"I'm asking you, who is this woman?"
"Fine! Then I'll tell you. Her name is Yan Baizhi, and she is the person I love the most. The only reason I got together with you back then was because I had broken up with her. You were just a replacement."
Xu Mu said with a flat expression, "Now that she's come to me to get back together, you are naturally of no use anymore."
"He really is a scumbag!"
Tong Guoguo muttered to herself, recalling that last time at the ruins, Xu Mu seemed to have mentioned that he had gone through a breakup.
So the person he liked was named Yan Baizhi. If she could capture this woman, perhaps she could use her to threaten him.
That way, she could finish him off without alerting the cleaners.
transmigrates into the world as the sect master of the Heavenly Yan Sect, which is on the verge of being wiped out. He binds a system that grants him cultivation power based on the number of disciples he has: for each disciple, he automatically gains a year's worth of cultivation every single day!

m back to his original world. In the end, he realized he had overthought things. [Hey, why is Shen Manni, the female lead, acting strange? Shouldn't she be fawning over the male lead at this point?] [Zhou Qiaoqiao, are you sick? Weren't you supposed to break off your engagement today?] [Damn it! An Youyi, please do your job as an undercover agent and sell my information to the protagonist, you idiot!] ... At this moment, Xu Mo himself didn't know that these female leads had already heard his inner thoughts. Then they decided not to play by the rules.
