Tantai Quan agreed on the other end, and the two did not hang up the phone.
The Range Rover didn't stop in front of Xu Mu's villa. After driving forward another five or six meters, Xu Mu asked the driver to stop.
Through his perception, he checked that person's phone; the car perfectly blocked the camera's view.
The opponent's camera wasn't placed directly opposite Xu Mu's house, but in a garden to the side.
The purpose was to monitor whoever went in and out of Xu Mu's house. Xu Mu didn't want the other party to know he was still alive just yet.
For every day Wang Hun remained in the dark, Xu Mu had an extra day to prepare.
Upon opening the door, Tantai Quan was standing right there.
As usual, she wore a gorgeous Hanfu. The neckline was still very low, revealing a deep cleavage.
The smile on her face was simply soul-captivating.
After Tantai Quan walked in, Xu Mu immediately closed the villa's main door.
Xu Mu needed to concentrate on refining pills later and didn't want Wang Hun's people to see, so he handed Tantai Quan a teleportation token.
"After I disappear, use this to teleport over."
As soon as he finished speaking, a black shadow flew out of Xu Mu's body.
The shadow instantly landed in Feng Yue's backyard and drilled underground through a hidden hole.
This hole had been blocked by Xu Mu, mainly for disguise, but air could still circulate.
Swish!
In the blink of an eye, Xu Mu appeared in the underground illusion array.
Just as he was about to land, he suddenly executed the Cloud Step, leaping outside the binding array.
"Xu Mu."
Tong Guoguo, who was sitting in a tent playing with her phone, suddenly saw someone enter and greeted him.
[Favorability +5]
The next moment, another person appeared beside Xu Mu. It was Tantai Quan.
"No way, I didn't expect there to be an illusion array nearby. Xu Mu, I really can't see through you anymore."
Tantai Quan said while looking around.
Xu Mu took the teleportation token from her hand and said, "Take out the heavenly materials and earthly treasures."
"I'm curious, how did you know the treasures were on me and not in the car?"
Tantai Quan asked with a smile.
"Eighth and ninth-grade treasures—if you casually left them in the car, I don't think you'd have that many."
Xu Mu mainly knew because his perception had shown him there were no treasures in her car at all.
"Hehe, you're really smart."
Tantai Quan touched her ring, and exactly eight heavenly materials and earthly treasures appeared on the ground.
Tong Guoguo walked over in disbelief from a distance. "Eighth-grade Origin Condensation Fruit, eighth-grade Crimson Blood Antler, ninth-grade Myriad Force Essence Flower."
Among them, there were six eighth-grade treasures and two ninth-grade Myriad Force Essence Flowers.
"This little sister is quite knowledgeable. May I ask who you are..."
Tantai Quan was speaking when she noticed Tong Guoguo's eyes. Frowning her delicate eyebrows, she glanced at Xu Mu. "She's from the Immortality Research Institute?"
"She used to be, but now she's my person. You don't need to worry."
Xu Mu took out his pill furnace, along with some other grades of heavenly materials and earthly treasures to act as supplementary ingredients.
"You'd better be careful. The people from the Immortality Research Institute are not simple. Don't get played for a fool."
Tantai Quan reminded him.
"I have completely seen through Wang Hun. He is my enemy."
Tong Guoguo said to Tantai Quan, "But what you said makes a lot of sense. Xu Mu really needs to be careful not to get played."
"Hehe, that's for the best."
Tantai Quan said with a smile.
"Alright, these types of heavenly materials and earthly treasures directly replenish strength. With my supplementary ingredients, I will refine them into ten pills. You get six, and I get four."
Xu Mu told the two women, "Next, I will enter a state of deep focus. Do not disturb me."
After speaking, Xu Mu began to refine pills.
"To refine pills from eighth and ninth-grade treasures requires at least a high-level alchemist. Xu Mu's fees are truly cheap."
Tong Guoguo glanced at Tantai Quan. "I wonder, what is your relationship with him?"
"Good friends."
Tantai Quan smiled. "He charges less for pills, but I can compensate him in other aspects."
"What aspects?"
As Tong Guoguo spoke, she suddenly narrowed her eyes.
Because Tantai Quan deliberately squeezed her chest, making the already deep cleavage even more profound.
"Hmph! Shameless!"
Tong Guoguo looked at Xu Mu refining pills in the distance and cursed inwardly.
"I heard that Wang Hun uses poisoned wine to control his subordinates. Are you the same?"
Tantai Quan continued to ask.
"I didn't drink the poisoned wine because Wang Hun needs me. He doesn't dare to go too far with me."
Tong Guoguo briefly explained her relationship with Wang Hun.
Tantai Quan nodded to herself. So this woman was actually Wang Hun's secretary.
However, she wasn't interested in the Immortality Research Institute. Her primary goal right now was her own race.
...
After a full three or four hours, Xu Mu finally finished.
Both Tantai Quan and Tong Guoguo were full of surprise. They didn't expect Xu Mu could actually go hours without saying a word, staring at the pills the entire time.
Ten pale red pills fell into Xu Mu's palm.
He walked over to Tantai Quan and asked with a smile, "I didn't steal any medicinal materials, right?"
[Favorability +10]
"No, no."
Tantai Quan felt a little embarrassed and hurriedly waved her hands.
"Pick six out of these ten pills, so you don't suspect me of deliberately increasing the dosage in certain pills."
Xu Mu said to Tantai Quan.
"Xu Mu, why do I feel like I've become the bad guy?"
Tantai Quan shook her head gently, but still took the initiative to pick six and put them into her ring. "Thanks."
"Guoguo, here's one for you."
Xu Mu took out a dark red pill and handed it to Tong Guoguo.
Tong Guoguo froze on the spot. "Xu Mu... how can I? This was refined from eighth and ninth-grade treasures, I can't accept it!"
Without another word, Xu Mu pried open Tong Guoguo's mouth with one hand and stuffed the pill in with the other.
The pill melted in her mouth, and an almost berserk medicinal efficacy instantly flooded her entire body, causing Tong Guoguo's red hair to flutter wildly.
"So strong... my strength has increased by a lot."
Tong Guoguo looked at Xu Mu excitedly. "And my power is still rising right now."
[Favorability +30]
She couldn't even believe it. A layer of mist formed in her eyes. Why would Xu Mu give her such a precious pill? Their relationship clearly wasn't even that good yet.
What's more, Xu Mu didn't have many left. He only had four in total, and there were more than four women around him just yesterday.
Tantai Quan's face was also filled with disbelief. Such a pill, yet Xu Mu didn't keep it for himself, unexpectedly giving it to someone else.
"Xu Mu, you really are generous. If I become your woman, would you treat me like this too?"
Tantai Quan asked with a smile.
"Probably."
Xu Mu said, looking at Tantai Quan.
[Favorability +10]
"I really have to consider it."
As Tantai Quan said this, she suddenly took out a Yellow-rank cultivation method and handed it to Tong Guoguo. "I'll give you this disguise technique, so you can go out too."
Tong Guoguo originally intended to refuse, but Xu Mu directly reached out and grabbed it. "Thanks. Once Guoguo learns it, we'll return it to you next time."
Currently, Xu Mu still had three pills left. He planned to give them to Meng Wanyue, Dai Xingluo, and Fu Jinyu.
The cultivation levels of Xu Ningbing and her group could still be raised using Qi Sea Pills for now.
He would definitely prioritize those with higher cultivation bases. By the time Xu Ningbing and the others reached that stage, Xu Mu might have obtained more pills anyway.
However, when it came to Fu Jinyu, he couldn't just give it to her for free this time. He had to make her pay a price.
Right at that moment, Xu Mu's phone rang.
He pulled it out, glanced at the screen, and let out a heavy breath. It was time to get busy again.
