Before Xu Mu opened the door, he first allocated all the points he had earned this time.
As the points increased, Xu Mu’s strength grew significantly once again.
He walked toward the villa’s entrance while checking his current stats panel.
Name: Xu Mu
Character: Villain Celestial Physique, CEO of Xu Group
Realm: Early Transcendence
Physique: 2990
Spirit: 2990
Cultivation Value: 610 (Max 3200)
Destiny Power: 3432
Double Card: 56:33
Xu Mu stepped outside and swung open the gate. What greeted him was Shi Fumeng’s youthful smile.
She wore a uniform, her hair tied back in a neat, high ponytail. With her appearance, she could easily pass for a high schooler who had just come of age.
Today, however, Shi Fumeng wasn’t wearing colored contacts, revealing her deep blue eyes. Paired with her bright, teeth-showing smile, she looked like a beautiful painting.
[Affection +10]
Xu Mu immediately checked the justice points he had earned and saw they had increased by 140.
He knew that Shi Fumeng’s destiny level was seven. Under normal circumstances, her ten points of affection would yield 70 justice points.
But with the Double Card in effect, it had doubled.
“What’s up? Why are you smiling so happily?”
Xu Mu asked calmly.
“I can more or less use this divine-level technique now! It’s too powerful!”
Shi Fumeng raised her fist with a grin. “Once I get the hang of it, I feel like I can leap several levels and take down experts.”
Xu Mu nodded lightly. A divine-level technique was indeed a once-in-a-lifetime treasure for someone like her.
However, most divine-level techniques were extremely difficult to master. Take Luo Fengchan, the sect leader of the Cold Immortal Sect, for example.
She had started cultivating in her teens and only fully mastered it by the time she was fifty, after which she began her cycle of reincarnation.
For Shi Fumeng to achieve mastery, who knew how long it would take?
In this regard, Xu Mu had a natural advantage—because once he acquired a divine-level technique, he mastered it completely.
Xu Mu looked at Shi Fumeng before him. He had to admit, her timing today was perfect.
He had originally been reluctant to let her take the precious elixir he had prepared. But since she had come, Xu Mu couldn’t pass up the chance to gain justice points from her.
“You came at just the right time. I’m going to focus on upgrading the people around me, so I might as well include you.”
Xu Mu turned around. “Come inside first.”
As he spoke, he began making phone calls. First, he called Ye Tong and Feng Yue, telling them to leave work early and come home to discuss something.
Then, Xu Mu sent a message to Mu Qingying—after all, she was part of the Dragon King’s harem.
He also contacted Ye Yu and Bai Yi, knowing they should be done with school by now.
Returning to the sofa, Xu Mu scrolled through his contacts and dialed Song Nuanyang, the former Great Elder of the Yin Yang Sect, asking if she was in Jiang City. If she was, she should come immediately.
After all, she was also one of Ye Chen’s female protagonists.
Right now, only these few people were around him.
Of course, aside from them, Xu Mu could also call Zhao Yingying and Li Yun, and even Lu Xueyao.
But Xu Mu felt that Zhao Yingying and Li Yun were currently living well.
They shouldn’t be dragged back into the world of cultivators.
Xu Mu had already made too many enemies. Getting them involved would put them in danger.
Li Yun was no longer young. Even if she started cultivating from scratch with the help of his elixir, she would never become a top-tier expert.
On top of that, their personalities just weren’t suited for it.
As for Lu Xueyao, her personality actually had potential. Unfortunately, Xu Mu had been too busy lately to attend to her.
He planned to visit them when he had some free time.
With only an hour left, Xu Mu didn’t have time to refine more elixirs. Fortunately, he still had enough on hand to distribute to everyone.
Within about ten minutes, Ye Tong drove home.
She parked the car in the garage and walked briskly into the living room. “Honey.”
“You’re back.”
Xu Mu smiled and waved.
“Yeah, what’s the matter today, making me leave work a dozen minutes early?”
Ye Tong didn’t sit beside Xu Mu as she spoke. Instead, she went over to Shi Fumeng. “Fumeng, you’re here too.”
Shi Fumeng was a bit surprised. She knew, of course, that this woman was Xu Mu’s legal wife.
She had expected Ye Tong to dislike her, but instead, Ye Tong greeted her warmly.
“Uh, hi.”
Shi Fumeng smiled at Ye Tong, showing her teeth.
“I haven’t seen you around lately. You should come stay over more often.”
Ye Tong took Shi Fumeng’s hand. “I’m sure Honey would be happy too.”
“Huh? He… would he?”
Shi Fumeng stole a glance at Xu Mu, noticing he seemed a bit anxious.
“Of course. He told me so quietly at night.”
Ye Tong whispered in Shi Fumeng’s ear.
[Affection +10]
Xu Mu was in no mood to refute Ye Tong’s claims. The Double Card’s time was down to forty minutes.
He stood up again, walked to the villa’s gate, and opened it to see Feng Yue and Mu Qingying walking in together.
Both were dressed in office uniforms, their high heels tapping rhythmically against the ground.
There's no denying it—the two of them looked incredibly stylish in their uniforms.
Their perfect, curvaceous figures were on full display.
"Boss, what's this important matter you mentioned?"
Tong Yue waved and greeted Xu Mu with a smile from afar.
[Affection +10]
Beside her, Mu Qingying gave Xu Mu a slight nod.
[Affection +10]
Lately, Mu Qingying hadn't interacted much with Xu Mu, but over the past few days, she had been invited to Feng Yue's home almost every day, and Ye Tong often joined them for meals.
From Ye Tong and Feng Yue's conversations, Xu Mu had practically become a legendary-level ideal man.
And when women chat together, they inevitably touch on risqué topics.
Both Ye Tong and Feng Yue freely praised Xu Mu's powerful physique.
This made Mu Qingying a little curious, even wanting to experience it for herself.
From elementary school to college, then studying abroad, and finally returning to become a teacher—
Mu Qingying had never been in a relationship. As a standard rich girl from a wealthy family, men with money didn't particularly impress her.
She was a content person; her family's wealth was enough to last a lifetime, with no need to seek someone of higher status.
That's why she chose to be a teacher instead of joining the family business.
She preferred a man with whom she shared mutual understanding—someone like-minded, for example, in music.
When she learned that Xu Mu's piano skills far surpassed her own, she had already developed some fondness for him deep down.
Now that Xu Mu had saved her father's life and helped her become a martial artist, she grew increasingly certain in her heart that the man before her might just be her destined soulmate.
"Brother-in-law!"
Just then, a sweet voice came from outside.
The next moment, Ye Yu, dressed in a flowing dress, entered the villa.
[Affection +15]
Following behind Ye Yu were Bai Yi and Song Nuanyang.
Bai Yi wasn't wearing her usual gothic princess dress today; instead, she was in simple athletic wear, though she still had her twin tails tied up, looking fresh and lively.
Song Nuanyang, with her straight black hair, wore denim shorts and a white blouse, fully revealing her wheat-colored skin.
After Xu Mu's guidance last time, she had come to realize that her skin tone was not a flaw.
