Chapter 63 - 53 [Reading Alone]_i



The sun at its zenith was sending streams of sunlight into the mountain cave, like transparent pillars of light.

Within the cool cave, Lan Shijin walked back and forth by the entrance, pausing frequently to look through the formation’s light curtain out into the outside world, concern evident in her beautiful eyes.

The rest of the group hid deep within the cave, each person armed with a talisman and a magic artifact.

Should anything unexpected happen, they’d respond immediately.

However, they had little confidence in themselves.

If Xu Mu failed, then they were merely making a desperate last stand.

Leng Yuening was the only one still playing with Little Ling’er.

The two pressed their foreheads against each other, taking turns to push and nudge.

From time to time, Little Ling’er would burst into giggles.

Zhang Yu, grandson of Old Man Zhang, watched them with an envious gaze from time to time.

His hand didn’t grasp a talisman but held a stone.

Just then, a figure emerged at the mouth of the cave, blocking much of the light coming in.

Noticing the changes in the light, Lan Shi jin quickly turned around to look.

A golden wheel appeared in her hand the moment she saw the face of the newcomer. A relieved smile flooded her beautiful face.

The others got up in a hurry and rushed towards the entrance.

Everyone had the look of joy stamped on their faces!

After Lan Shijin deactivated the formation, Ye Yingying was the first to rush forward.

The others had to stop in their tracks, with a touch of melancholy flickering in Leng Yuening’s eyes.

“Husband, are you hurt?”

Ye Yingying climbed down from Xu Mu’s arms and inspected him from head to toe.

“I’m fine!”

Xu Mu caressed her head with a doting touch.

“Daddy! Mine!”

Little Ling’er was indifferent to Xu Mu, only cared about the white wolf in his arms. She tried her best to struggle out of Leng Yuening’s arms and reach for the white wolf.

Leng Yuening had no choice but to carry her over and place her in front of Xu Mu.

“Thank you, Lady Yue Ning, for taking such good care of my daughter!”

“Mmm!”

Leng Yuening gave a small nod without saying much.

Apart from Little Ling’er, she rarely spoke to anyone else.

While tugging at his clothes on the ground, Little Ling’er tried hard to climb up.

Xu Mu helplessly squatted down, placing the wolf pup, which had regained some of its strength, on the ground.

The white wolf pup seemed to have trouble even standing because it had been pinned down by bones for too long. As soon as Xu Mu put it down, it slouched to the floor.

Little Ling’er didn’t care about that at all. She hugged it tightly at once, then swayed it back and forth as if soothing a baby.

Perhaps because of her prolonged intake of the Jade Marrow Pills, Little Ling’er’s development noticeably exceeded that of children her age. Not yet a year and a half old, she was nearly as strong as a three or four-year-old child.

The already weak white wolf pup appeared even weaker due to Ling’er’s shaking.

However, Little Ling’er had no plan to loosen its grip. She turned her head, placed it back on the ground, and climbed onto it like riding a horse.

A perplexed Xu Mu scratched his head.

He had the feeling that this little girl was even more brutal than him.

Seeing the white wolf, Ouyang Ying’s face showed a rare hint of excitement. He asked, “Friend Xu, is this…”

“Yes! I found it in the den after killing its mother wolf!”

“Just one?” Ouyang Ying asked anxiously.

“There were six others, but I killed them all.”

Xu Mu took out the corpse of a wolf pup and threw it on the ground.

“What? Killed them? This, this…

Ouyang Ying looked heartbroken.

These wolf pups, if raised well, could potentially become six Foundation Establishment Stage monster pets!

Who knows how many major families would fight for them!

Monster beasts live much longer than humans. Having such a pet at home is like having an additional Foundation Establishment Stage guardian.

While Ouyang Ying was more interested in the wolf pups, the rest were more concerned whether Xu Mu really killed the tier-four Green Wolf, comparable to the Foundation Establishment Stage.

“Friend Xu, did you really kill that Green Wolf?”

Shock filled Zhang Shouren’s eyes, as if he were listening to an incredible tale.

Although their recent interactions had made him realize Xu Mu’s strength, that was a Foundation Establishment Stage monster beast!

A Qi Cultivation stage six, killing a Foundation Establishment Stage?

It was a far-fetched story!

Like a legend!

“I was just lucky, my fellow daoists, please don’t spread this around!”

Xu Mu bowed his hands in a salute.

He was not worried about Leng Yuening and Lan Shijin, his main concern were Zhang Shouren and Ouyang Ying.

If not for their conscience, if they didn’t only know about his strength but also his specific techniques, he might even consider killing them to keep them silent.

He could keep the women, but what about the men!

And two old men at that!

“Friend Xu, rest assured, I would rather die than reveal your secret!”

Zhang Shouren quickly assured him.

He understood the logic that wealth should not be exposed. Xu Mu’s methods were too extraordinary. Letting others know may indeed cause serious trouble.

Ouyang Ying said, “Friend Xu, if you don’t mind, from now on, I would like to follow you! I have some insights on raising pet beasts, perhaps I might be of help!”

Ouyang Ying practically had stars in his eyes for the white wolf.

Knowing his age and being half-disabled, he can be said to have given up on life, but finding something of interest, he was willing to serve as a pet beast servant, even if Xu Mu would not accept him.

“If friend Ouyang is willing to follow me, I would be most grateful!”

Xu Mu’s face lit up with joy.

Despite Ouyang Ying’s not-so-great strength and potential, his vast experience was invaluable. He was largely responsible for their smooth travels so far.

Xu Mu wanted to establish a family, and Ouyang Ying could indeed be very helpful.

Moreover, it was just one more mouth to feed!

With his current wealth, he can afford it!

Zhang Shouren looked at his grandson, considering, but in the end, he didn’t speak up.

With Xu Mu’s strength equivalent to the Foundation Establishment Stage, serving him would be nothing but beneficial. Any small bonus he gives is enough for them to live comfortably.

However, once a servant, it would be hard to regain freedom in this life, and he couldn’t make such a decision for his grandson.

Maybe he should wait for him to grow older and let him decide for himself!

Zhang Shouren thought to himself.

“Friend Xu, now that the monster beast problem is resolved, should we leave now?” Lan Shijin asked.

“I’m afraid it’s still not the right time!”

Xu Mu revealed the existence of another green wolf.

In order to avoid being ambushed during the journey, he needed to figure out a way to deal with it.

Blindly searching would be too time-consuming. As he scrutinized the surroundings, his eyes finally settled on Leng Yuening.

“We may need Lady Yue Ning’s help again!”

Xu Mu stated his plan.

He desired to use Leng Yuening as bait while he conceals his aura, employing the Invisibility Technique, hoping to draw their opponent out.

In the group, both Ouyang Ying and Zhang Shouren were in the early stages of Qi Cultivation, not to mention their advanced age and slow reactions. Ye Yingying was out of the question. Lan Shijin had to remain to control the formation, so the two children were even less likely to be considered.

Only Leng Yuening was the most suitable.

During this time, Leng Yuening had been honed quite a bit, and her fighting power had drastically improved. She shouldn’t have an issue dealing with such a task.

Although Lan Shijin was worried for her daughter’s safety, she could only agree to this situation.

Xu Mu first rested well for the day before heading into the forest with Leng Yuening and bidding farewell to the group the next day.

“Lady Yue Ning, please be careful. To avoid revealing my aura, I won’t make a move unless there’s considerable danger!”

Xu Mu reminded her.

I understand!

Leng Yuening drew her magic sword. It circled around her as she held talismans in her hand, cautiously proceeding into the forest.

Xu Mu hid his aura and followed closely behind, periodically activating his Invisibility Technique to survey the surroundings.

To avoid falling into a trap, the two had to return to their group for a while after travelling a certain distance.

Two days passed in a blink. Besides some tier-one and tier-two monster beasts that didn’t know any better, they hadn’t even caught a glimpse of the green wolf.

“It seems it has genuinely escaped! Such a heartless creature!”

Xu Mu appeared behind Leng Yuening, glancing around before speaking: “Lady Yue Ning, let’s rest for a bit! We can change locations later!”

“Oh!”

Leng Yuening nodded, found a rock to sit down on, and swallowed a pill to recover her Spiritual Power.

Xu Mu originally intended to take a rest, but unintentionally noticed something unnatural about Leng Yuening’s left leg – it was slightly swollen.

“Lady Yue Ning, what happened to your leg?”

“My leg?”

Leng Yuening opened her eyes in confusion.

She lowered her gaze, instantly noticing the abnormality on her leg.

She hastily removed her leather boot, unwrapped the cloth around her foot, revealing dark, swollen skin.

“How did this happen?!!!”

Leng Yuening became pale with fright.

Xu Mu’s expression also changed.

He quickly crouched down to check it, regardless of anything, and directly ripped her trouser leg to examine it all the way up to the root.

Almost two-thirds of the entire leg was severely swollen.

Seeing this, Leng Yuening was at a loss, her eyes filled with panic and fear.

She had walked all the way without noticing the abnormality of her leg.

“Don’t worry! It might not be as serious as you imagine.”

Xu Mu looked at her with a calm expression, pacifying her. After inspecting her leg, he found a small wound on her lower leg. It looked like some sort of bug bite.

He frowned, appearing doubtful.

All along the way, he had been watching Leng Yuening. He had never seen her roll up her pant leg. Add to that the tier-3 magic robe he had given to her, it should have protected her from attacks by poisonous bugs and the like.

However, considering these matters now seemed rather insignificant, the most urgent task was to treat her.

“You should eat this first!

Xu Mu handed her a Detoxification Pill and subsequently started to manipulate his Spiritual Power inch by inch to sense her condition.

His keen senses allowed him to detect a tiny life force hidden within her flesh and blood.

There was a bug that had burrowed inside!

Xu Mu remembered the parasites from his previous life!

Luckily it was a bug. If it had been poison, it would have been more difficult to handle.

After all, treating poison requires administering the right medicine, but with a parasite, all you have to do is remove it.

“Close your eyes!”

Xu Mu took out a knife-like magic artifact, speaking evenly.

“What’s wrong?”

Seeing Xu Mu’s expression, Leng Yuening was somewhat scared.

“There’s a poisonous bug inside. I must help you remove it! Don’t worry, it will be quick!”

Cultivators are unlike ordinary people – losing a little blood is not a big deal.

With Xu Mu’s Body Refinement skills, his understanding of body structure far exceeded that of ordinary cultivators. He was even able to use blood flow to detect the bug’s location, accurately targeting it.

Had he been in his previous life, he would absolutely be a top-tier surgeon, so performing such a minor surgery was easily manageable.

The only thing he was worried about was whether Leng Yuening could bear the pain of the surgery.

“Ah!!”

Leng Yuening turned pale.

Is this what he meant when he said it wasn’t a serious problem?

However, given the current situation, she could only follow Xu Mu’s advice.

She shut her eyes, gritted her teeth, her heart filled with nervousness.

The surgery went surprisingly smoothly.

Because the venom secreted by the parasite had numbed her leg, Leng Yuening didn’t feel any pain throughout the procedure.

Soon, over a dozen fleshy maggots had been removed by Xu Mu.

They crawled about on the ground, looking extremely disgusting.

Xu Mu released a fire, directly burning them to ashes, and carefully checked several times to verify that none had been missed. Only then did he take out a Revival Talisman and apply it to the wound.

Under the cover of the white spiritual light, the wound quickly healed.

He then took out a Purification Charm to clean off the blood.

On closer inspection, the previously swollen skin had significantly subsided – it seemed like it wouldn’t take long to recover fully.

Only then did both of them let out a sigh of relief.

“Brother Xu, thank you!”

Leng Yuening, her face blushing like a peach blossom, said softly.

“You’re welcome! Roll up the other pant leg, let me check that one too!”

“Ah? Oh!”

Blushing, Leng Yuening took off her boot, revealing her white, jade-like foot and slender calf.

Xu Mu also looked a bit awkward.

Compared to the swollen leg earlier, this one fully showcased her feminine beauty.

His fingers touched her leg, silky to the touch!

His hand moved slowly upward!

Leng Yuening’s face turned beet-red, her breathing heavy, her heart flustering as if a deer were darting about within.

The other leg that was numb from poison didn’t register any feelings, but this one…

Ying Ying!

When Xu Mu finished inspecting her leg, under the sunlight, his fingers glimmered with fluorescent light. He looked up in surprise, but was at a loss for words.

And so…

Don’t blame me!

She initiated it!

I just made a mistake that anyone would make!
