Exchange with a Heavenly-Class Skill

Luo Fengchan frowned, her delicate brows knitting together. "How dare you! You touched my head?"

"Wow, you’ve got quite the temper."

Xu Mu grinned and released his hand. This little girl was clearly stuck in some chuunibyou phase, throwing around words like "dare."

Still, he wasn’t about to bother with a brat like her.

Xu Mu pulled out a hundred-yuan note and handed it to Luo Fengchan. "Here, go buy yourself some spicy sticks."

"I’ll buy your ass! You’re Xu Mu, aren’t you?"

Luo Fengchan stood with her hands behind her back, tilting her head up to look at him.

She had watched the entire competition video from before and remembered his face—he was actually kind of handsome.

Hearing this, Xu Mu furrowed his brows slightly. "Who are you?"

"I’m from the Hanxian Sect."

Luo Fengchan’s tone was flat. "Your sister is currently cultivating in our sect."

"Someone from the Hanxian Sect?"

Xu Mu nodded slightly. "What did your sect send you here for?"

"Send me?"

Luo Fengchan stared at Xu Mu. There was no pretense in his expression—did this guy really not know who she was?

Xu Mu, being this level of cultivator, should have heard of the Hanxian Sect’s sect leader. She thought she had a decent reputation.

"What? Did you come on your own?"

Xu Mu tucked the hundred-yuan note back into his pocket.

"I was sent."

Luo Fengchan didn’t bother explaining further. She looked up at Xu Mu. "Contact your master. I want to see him."

"What for? You planning to switch sides and become my master’s disciple?"

Xu Mu grinned.

"What the hell is he? Me, becoming his disciple?"

Luo Fengchan crossed her arms and said coldly.

"Watch your mouth."

Xu Mu slapped her on the rear. "Don’t think I won’t hit you just because you’re a little girl. Insulting my master? You should be glad you’re a kid."

If she were an ordinary child, he might have let it slide.

But she was from the Hanxian Sect, so he had to teach her a lesson—to show how much he respected his fictional master.

Luo Fengchan was stunned. Her eyes brimmed with disbelief. "You... you actually hit me?"

"So what if I did? Wasn’t it justified after you insulted my master?"

Xu Mu’s voice turned cold. "Next time, I’ll pull your pants down and do it."

"You’re asking for death! Do you have any idea who I am?"

Luo Fengchan raised her small hand, pointing at Xu Mu’s face.

"I don’t give a damn who you are!"

Even as he said that, Xu Mu opened his Divine Eye to check her out.

Given this girl’s attitude, she was probably no ordinary person—likely the descendant of a sect leader or head elder.

Name: Luo Fengchan

Identity: Leader of the Hanxian Sect, Female Lead of The Dragon King’s Descent

Affection: -5

Heavenly Fate Level: 9 (max 10)

Seeing this info, Xu Mu was dumbfounded. He thought he’d misread it.

She wasn’t the sect leader’s daughter—she WAS the sect leader.

As for her being part of Ye Chen’s harem, that didn’t surprise Xu Mu.

In the sect, Xu Ningbing, Bai Qingyuan, and others were all Ye Chen’s women, so the sect leader being one too was perfectly logical.

What shocked Xu Mu was why the leader of the Hanxian Sect was a little kid.

But past the shock, he knew he had to keep up the act.

If he didn’t know her, slapping her rear still made some sense.

But if he admitted he knew her, it’d be a deliberate offense.

"Little girl, if you were just some ordinary girl, I’d let it slide. But since you’re a sect disciple, I’m not letting you off easy!"

Xu Mu pointed at Luo Fengchan and barked, "If you insult my master again, I'll beat you until you're swollen!"

"You…"

Luo Fengchan snorted coldly, standing with her hands behind her back. "I'll tell you—I am the Sect Master of the Cold Immortal Sect, Luo Fengchan!"

"You little brat, who the hell are you pretending to be? Have you even grown your hair out? Cold Immortal Sect Master?"

Xu Mu laughed mockingly. "Everyone knows the Cold Immortal Sect Master is elegant, noble, dignified, gentle as jade, and pure of heart. How could she be a little girl like you?"

[Affection +1]

Luo Fengchan was about to lose her temper, but upon hearing those words, her anger vanished. "Have you seen her?"

"Of course I have. It was love at first sight. I thought to myself, how could there be such a beautiful woman?"

Xu Mu played it safe for now, hoping to keep this woman from attacking him.

Luo Fengchan nodded inwardly. Perhaps the Xu Mu she encountered had seen her in her adult form.

She raised her hand lightly, and ice instantly formed beneath Xu Mu's feet, freezing them to the ground.

Xu Mu's face stiffened. He didn't use any techniques but tried to break free with his own strength, only to find he couldn't shatter the ice.

Clearly, this woman really was the sect master—strong enough to back it up.

"Are you really the sect master? How is that possible?"

Xu Mu looked utterly incredulous.

Luo Fengchan raised her hand again, and the ice at Xu Mu's feet melted away. "It's the effect of a divine-grade technique."

She kept her hands behind her back, looking like a little adult, and briefly explained the state of her cultivation technique.

Xu Mu listened, then said in shock, "A legal loli?"

"What nonsense is that?"

Luo Fengchan frowned.

"N-Nothing."

Xu Mu quickly waved his hand. He hadn't expected there to be such a miraculous technique.

If someone married Luo Fengchan, they could basically switch between every age of womanhood at will.

Though, if it were him, he wouldn't agree to start training at twelve—he'd at least wait until adulthood.

At twelve, you're still a bit weak, not as strong as the peak of early adulthood.

"Alright, now can you take me to see your master?"

Luo Fengchan said flatly.

"I still don't know—what do you want from my master?"

"The Submerged Abyss is a lost technique of our Cold Immortal Sect. Our sect has records of it, so I have no reason to lie."

Luo Fengchan looked up at Xu Mu. "I plan to negotiate with your master about handing over the technique. Of course, I won't take it for nothing—I can trade something for it."

Xu Mu had already guessed this might be the reason.

Although he didn't know which sect the Submerged Abyss originated from, he knew such a water-based technique would definitely interest the Cold Immortal Sect.

It turned out it was originally their sect's technique. Perhaps during the Martial Debate Tournament, the Cold Immortal Sect's Grand Elder had noticed Xu Ningbing using it.

"This is a heaven-grade technique. What are you offering in exchange? If it's another heaven-grade technique, I'll agree on my master's behalf right now."

Xu Mu had, thanks to his focus, learned some of the Submerged Abyss's moves. Overall, it was indeed powerful, but only a water-attributed body could use it to its fullest.

So Xu Mu was destined never to master it to perfection. But if he could trade it for another learnable heaven-grade technique, he'd gladly agree.

"How could I trade a heaven-grade technique for that?"

Luo Fengchan frowned.

"Not willing to trade for a Heaven-grade technique? Then you're thinking a bit too highly of yourself, sir. There's no need for you to seek out my master—he definitely won't agree."

Xu Mu waved his hand dismissively.

"This is our sect's technique!"

"So? What does that have to do with us? It's not like we stole it from you."

Xu Mu shrugged. "My master traded another Heaven-grade technique for this one, with an elder. No stealing, no robbing."

"You..."
