[Achievement Acquired: Helping The Young Shoot Grow!]
[ Helping The Young Shoot Grow: You can gain 10 Luck Value points every day! ]
[Luck Value: Can be used to enhance skill proficiency but cannot directly enhance cultivation!]
“How come I gained such an achievement?”
Xu Mu found it strange and asked Zhang Tianluo, who was grumbling and muttering beneath his breath on the side.
“Sixty-seven! Why are you asking this?”
“Nothing!”
How could a sixty-seven-year-old be regarded as a young shoot who needs help to grow?
Right, Zhang Tianluo didn’t seem to be a pure member of the Human Clan.
The Sea Race’s lifespan is generally much longer than the Human Clan’s. Plus, considering Zhang Tianluo is at the Foundation Establishment Stage, if we average it out–
Ahem ahem!
No wonder Zhang Tianluo looked so weird, like a little radish head. Originally, Xu Mu thought her bloodline had a problem, but it turns out she just hasn’t fully grown yet.
My bad! My bad!
“Bastard! Swindler! Idiot… Oh oh!”
“If you keep this up, I’m not coming next time!”
“No way!”
Xu Mu had no choice but to stand up.
He wasn’t a masochist; he didn’t want to be cursed daily.
“How’s your martial method coming along?”
After he had rested, put on his robe, and used a few Purification Charms to clear out the heavy smell in the room, Xu Mu asked about the Twelve Startle Cicada Skill.
“How could it be? No significant changes, you swindler!”
Zhang Tianluo stood up. Compared to before, her figure had grown significantly. From her original strangely shaped radish head, she had transformed into a tall beauty with fair skin.
The blue scales on her forehead added an exotic charm to her appearance; she looked like a different person!
A different person!
No wonder the system gave him an achievement for helping her grow.
If Zhang Tianluo didn’t also possess the Human Clan’s bloodline, he might have been given an achievement for ruining a young shoot instead.
Of course, if it were like that, he wouldn’t have the heart to harm her.
He was a human, not a teddy bear!
He wasn’t sure if this drastic change was good or bad; he didn’t want her to end up as a spoiled young shoot!
“No significant changes implies there have been changes, which is a great step forward!” Xu Mu said.
At least, it meant Zhang Tianluo had succeeded in her cultivation. It’s just that the progress was a bit slow. It could take a few years, or even decades, to reach the proficiency level where she could merge her bloodline.
“No way! You must come up with a solution quickly! Otherwise, what’s the use if I master it when I’m already old and dying!”
Zhang Tianluo stubbornly argued.
“What can 1 do about your natural talent! Not everyone is a once-in-a-millennium genius like me. You better stick to your cultivation earnestly.”
Ignoring Zhang Tianluo’s murderous gaze, Xu Mu left her residence and headed to the Black Tide Market to inquire about medicinal herbs.
Xu Yiren was still dressed in her purple robe, looking lazy and seductive, which awakened Xu Mu’s desire.
Absence makes the heart grow fonder.
They flirted in the courtyard for a while until they were both barely able to stand. Only then did they discuss important matters.
“I’ve collected almost everything, except a spiritual medicine called Purple Hua Grass, which I couldn’t find,” Xu Yiren apologized.
“No problem, just give me the herbs you’ve already collected!”
Xu Mu didn’t mind at all.
After all, he had already collected many of the herbs from the Blue scale clan. Xu Yiren’s collection was just meant to supplement his.
With the Blue scale clan as his source, his shopping was quite convenient now.
“Alright!”
After receiving the herbs, Xu Mu was about to leave, but Xu Yiren stopped him.
“Xu Lang, the Iron Corpse Gang has been acting strangely lately, do you want to check it out?”
Others might not know that Xu Mu was behind the attack on the Iron Corpse Gang, but Xu Yiren was well aware.
So she always kept an eye on the Iron Corpse Gang, fearing that they might send men to investigate their side.
“Oh? Strange actions? What kind of strange actions?”
Xu Mu paused.
Given his current strength, he could wipe out the Iron Corpse Gang. However, he was concerned that there might be a power vacuum in the neighborhood after their end. Since he didn’t want to deal with the aftermath, he would probably end up with chaos and turmoil.
