Ye Tong, Who Possessed You

Xu Mu smiled. He knew all along that this Tantai Quan was not that simple.

He continued to ask, "Why do you suspect Tantai Quan? And not other Jiao tribesmen?"

"You don't know this, but Tantai Quan is the daughter of the previous Jiao King, which makes her a princess. However, the Jiao tribe reveres strength. Before the previous Jiao King died, a new Jiao King seized power and killed the old Jiao King."

Heichi explained, "Tantai Quan's faction fought desperately to resist, but still suffered heavy casualties. In the end, the new Jiao King was merciful and only banished Tantai Quan from the Inner Realm, forbidding her from ever returning. If she does, she will be killed on sight."

Hearing this, Xu Mu finally understood the reason behind it.

No wonder they wanted to come over and investigate Tantai Quan.

"In other words, the current Jiao King already suspects Tantai Quan?"

Xu Mu asked with a smile.

"No! You think too simply of the Jiao King's strength, or rather, you think too weakly of our Jiao tribe. Just those rebels alone are far from being able to catch the Jiao King's eye."

At this point, Heichi's expression was full of pride. "This matter has only just reached the ears of the First Commander."

Hearing this, Xu Mu secretly nodded. The previous plot had also introduced that the truly powerful alien races all lived in the Inner Realm.

The Inner Realm could be considered a late-stage dungeon. If that was the case, Tantai Quan could also be considered a big shot.

However, it wouldn't be that simple for Tantai Quan to get her revenge.

Relying on Xu Mu's alchemy skills, it would be as difficult as ascending to heaven for her to build an army for revenge.

Even if she had Lu Mangshan as a middleman, top-tier natural treasures were not that easy to obtain.

After all, most of those who held top-tier natural treasures had their own circles and didn't need to look for a middleman like Lu Mangshan at all.

Only those nobodies who obtained them by chance would look for her, but how many people like that were there?

Xu Mu went to the other young man and asked the same questions.

The answers he received were roughly the same. It seemed they were not lying.

Thus, Xu Mu completely undos this level nine array. The surrounding scenery disappeared, and the crowd appeared in the courtyard of the villa.

"You can leave now. I don't like trouble, and I think you should know how to report back."

Xu Mu waved his hand at the two.

The two nodded repeatedly at Xu Mu and quickly left the place.

"Brother, there was actually no need to let them go."

Dai Xingluo came to Xu Mu's side and said.

"Killing them might cause subsequent trouble. Right now, our primary task is to keep a low profile and bide our time."

Xu Mu smiled. "I managed to get another divine herb this time. Once I refine it into a pill, your overall strength will advance further."

Hearing this, the favorability of the few people present surfaced.

Favorability +10

Favorability +10

Favorability +10

Everyone except Meng Wanyue, who was already at max level.

Tong Guoguo looked deeply at Xu Mu. She couldn't understand it at all.

If it were a normal person who obtained a divine herb, shouldn't they eat it all by themselves?

Especially since Xu Mu's strength wasn't very high, yet he was willing to share such a treasure.

Could there really be such a family-oriented man?

Favorability +10

"By the way, how is your Cloud Step training going?"

Xu Mu suddenly asked.

"We all roughly know the method. What comes next is to use it flexibly."

Meng Wanyue said with a smile.

"Good."

Xu Mu nodded.

The crowd returned to the underground ruins, where the girls practiced and exercised.

Xu Mu, holding the alchemy furnace, headed deeper inside to refine the Ten Thousand Spirits Coriander.

This time, he planned to make a few more pills. This kind of divine herb could only be eaten once in a lifetime.

After it improved the meridians, eating it again would have almost no effect.

Besides himself, he also planned to give one to Xu Shou.

Entering a state of focus, Xu Mu began to work.

In addition to the Ten Thousand Spirits Coriander, he also added other natural treasures to further stimulate its medicinal effects.

In the end, he refined a full sixteen pills.

Looking at the pills emitting a green glow in his palm, he smiled.

He ate one himself first, instantly feeling as if his body was burning up.

Qi rapidly crashed around inside his body, and he felt his meridians being stretched open.

It lasted for a long time before the power wandering inside his body slowly dissipated.

Xu Mu carefully felt his body. This divine herb couldn't directly increase cultivation, but the powerful spiritual energy it brought still allowed him to improve a lot.

In the distance, Feng Yue sat on the ground resting, but her eyes kept looking at Xu Mu.

Over the past few days, Ye Tong had been frantically brainwashing her.

Now she was certain of one thing: what Ye Tong said wasn't sarcastic, but that she genuinely wanted Xu Mu to marry other women.

Last night, when Xu Mu didn't come back, Ye Tong specially came to find her and almost knelt down to her.

She wanted her to help share the burden.

Although Feng Yue also knew that Xu Mu was formidable, and every time it ended, her soul seemed to leave her body.

But without their intimate moments recently, she actually missed it a bit.

This feeling was like staying up all night watching shows or playing games, resulting in waking up the next day feeling dizzy and terrible all over, swearing never to stay up late again.

But once her body recovered, she couldn't help but want to stay up all night again.

Moreover, Xu Mu had been going out constantly to help her find natural treasures. Besides this, she didn't seem to have any other way to repay him.

Thinking of this, she took out her phone. "Tong, Xu Mu is back. I've decided to help you today!"

At this moment, Ye Tong, who had just gotten off work and returned home, almost wept with joy upon seeing this message.

"Boss, are the pills refined?"

Feng Yue took the initiative to approach Xu Mu.

"What's wrong? You want to eat it now?"

Xu Mu put away the alchemy furnace and the pills.

"I don't want to eat this. I want to eat something else."

Feng Yue suddenly lowered her voice and blinked at Xu Mu. "Come with me. I have something to talk to you about."

Seeing Feng Yue's expression, Xu Mu nodded gently.

The two left the array together and headed to Feng Yue's villa.

At this moment, Ye Tong, standing on the second floor of her own house, secretly hid by the window to observe. Sure enough, she saw Feng Yue leading Xu Mu back to her house.

She smiled and threw a few punches in the air. "Finally succeeded. Hubby, the humiliation you put me through before, I'm going to return it all today!"

Xu Mu was led all the way to the bedroom on the second floor by Feng Yue.

"What do you want to do?"

Xu Mu watched Feng Yue close the curtains.

"I want to."

Feng Yue grabbed Xu Mu's hand, her eyes gradually blurring. "Boss, recently I found out that the lawn landscaping at your villa isn't as good as mine. Do you want some turf?"

Xu Mu's eyes narrowed instantly. "Feng Yue, you're getting more and more arrogant lately."

...

Feng Yue lay there paralyzed with lifeless eyes, like a shell that had lost its soul.

Xu Mu was truly too strong. All her combat skills were completely useless.

"Boss, I need to rest for a while. You go back."

Feng Yue lay on the bed at this moment, not wanting to move at all.

Xu Mu smiled and nodded, then left the place.

Looking at the closed door, Feng Yue sighed. "Ye Tong, this is all I can do for you."

Xu Mu returned to his own house and found Ye Tong sitting on the sofa watching TV.

Seeing Xu Mu return, she immediately went up to him. "Hubby, you're back."

"Yeah, I got some natural treasures again..."

"Hubby, you didn't come home last night. I... missed you."

Ye Tong clung to Xu Mu's arm, her face flushed with coy shyness.

"Holy shit! Are you possessed or something?"

Xu Mu was utterly dumbfounded. What was going on?

It seemed that Ye Tong had never taken the initiative with him like this before.
