Zhang Tianluo was a bit surprised by Xu Mu’s request, but after thinking about it, it seemed pretty reasonable.

First of all, the value of a martial method.

Indeed, it’s impossible to exchange just one piece of information for it.

Even if she sold herself, she probably wouldn’t be able to exchange for it.

Furthermore, such a valuable martial method, if leaked, could bring about a huge crisis.

If they become Dao companions, they would be considered as one. It would make sense to give him access to the martial method.

Moreover, with this relationship, the information about the martial method would be less likely to leak.

Although the situation seemed reasonable, there was one thing—

I’ve only met you a few times!

Becoming Dao companions so quickly felt a bit awkward.

However, considering the martial method, she quickly suppressed this awkwardness.

“I agree! But before the trade, you have to swear on your Dao heart to ensure the martial method is real!”

“Sure! But you also have to swear, not to ignore me!”

“Alright!”

Zhang Tianluo agreed without hesitation.

“I Xu Mu swear, if the martial method I hand over is fake, I will never advance a step in my cultivation from today onwards.”

Xu Mu looked up to the sky as he swore solemnly.

After the oath, there was no change in the world.

Nor was there any horrifying presence watching him.

The oath of Dao seems a bit idealistic.

Whether it works or not, Xu Mu knew, in legends, no one who violates the oath has a good end.

“I, Zhang Tianluo, swear to become a Dao companion with Xu Mu, as long as he doesn’t betray me, I won’t betray him either.”

Zhang Tianluo announced eagerly.

This woman really knows how to play word games!

Xu Mu grumbled internally.

But he didn’t argue. As long as she agreed, it was enough for him.

He wouldn’t break his oath anyway. As for her, he naturally had ways to make her yield.

Was the secret skill he cultivated for just looking?

“Alright, the oath is done, quickly give me the martial method!”

Zhang Tianluo implored impatiently.

“No rush about the martial method. Since I already swore, I will definitely give it to you!”

He can’t give her the martial method now for sure, as she might turn against him on the spot.

You might as well take the advantage first.

“First tell me about the Sea Race. I promise not just to give you the martial method, but will also teach you my cultivation experiences!”

“Well, alright… but if you dare deceive me, I won’t let you off!”

Zhang Tianluo hesitated a little before finally agreeing, not knowing what Xu Mu was thinking inside.

Because, rationally speaking, she still thought she was taking advantage.

Indeed, she should show enough sincerity first.

“We’re family now, how could I possibly lie to you?” Xu Mu laughed.

“Hmph!”

Zhang Tianluo gave a habitual cold snort before finally revealing the information she had.

She spoke about how she had come to know the Blue Scale Tribe which was also the source of her bloodline.

Her mother was originally a human cultivator. During a resource hunting trip, she accidentally entered the hidden place of the Blue Scale Tribe and was captured. Then Zhang Tianluo was born.

Until she was nine years old, she lived among the Blue Scale Tribe. Because she was of mixed blood, she suffered a lot of bullying there.

With the help of a few young members of the Blue Scale Tribe, she escaped and turned into an ordinary Loose Cultivator.

Due to her mixed-blood, she also had a tough time among the Human Clan.

Although she wasn’t bullied daily, it was a constant struggle.

She heard that selling Sea Race resources could earn a lot of profit, so she took a risk and returned to the Blue Scale Tribe and found her young friends.

Then she began a trade between the two sides, and her business flourished. She successfully established her foundation.

But all of this was still small-scale.
