“Didn’t you notice that he was standing in the same place I had been in before!” Xu Mu laughed.

Only after thinking it over did Qiao Qianqian realize that Xu Mu had been retreating constantly since the start of the battle, while Wang Yongan kept moving closer to control the puppet corpse.

It seemed that before the actual fight began, Xu Mu had set up poison around him, and then he appeared weak, luring Wang Yongan into the poisoned area through gradual retreats.

“I see, but what kind of poison did you use that he didn’t notice it even after such a long time!” Qiao Qianqian pursued.

“Just a trifle, it’s not worth mentioning.” Xu Mu casually replied.

“…”

Just a trifle? He clearly doesn’t want to tell me.

Qiao Qianqian complained internally.

She wanted to continue questioning him, but unfortunately, they had arrived at the high platform. She could only let it go and decide to ask again later.

Upon seeing Xu Mu return safely, the two accompanying servants showed a hint of delight. But when they saw Wang Yongan vomiting blood from poisoning, they couldn’t help but show a shock.

“Friend Xu, I didn’t expect you to be proficient in Parasitic Skill!” Li Youlan said with a smile.

“I just dabbled in it when I had some spare time. It’s nothing, I am sorry to have made you laugh, princess.” Xu Mu replied with a smile.

“…”

Li Youlan was lost for words.

You are being too modest. A few days of dabbling and you were able to poison a Golden Pill cultivator. But if you were to dabble for a few years, wouldn’t that mean you could poison a Nascent Soul?

“Treat Friend Wang of his condition. Let’s all scatter!” Li Youlan commanded.

“Yes!”

Xu Mu nodded, took out a pill and gave it to Elder Jin to feed Wang Yongan.

After consuming the pill, Wang Yongan quickly regained his normal breath, and stopped vomiting blood.

“Your Highness, I am not convinced! This man’s method is despicable, and I want to fight him again!” Wang Yongan starting to kick up a fuss as soon as his condition got somewhat better.

“Friend Wang, I forgot to tell you, you need to take the pill for seven days to completely eliminate the toxin.” Before Li Youlan could respond, Xu Mu took out a vial of medicine and spoke first.

“You, you, you…”

Wang Yongan nearly vomited blood again from anger.

“Alright! It was just a friendly contest. Don’t take it to heart!” Li Youlan spoke lightly.

She herself didn’t like Wang Yongan anyway, insensitively assuming that someone might be interested in her. Furthermore, if she could afford it, she would have kicked him out long ago.

“Damn it! I’ll let you off just this once for the princess’s sake!” Wang Yongan said hatefully.

Xu Mu merely chuckled, unconcerned.

As far as Xu Mu was concerned, Wang Yongan was only competent in terms of his abilities- in every other way he was inferior even to Lu Kui; at the very least, Lu Kui had been cunning at the beginning.

“Give me back my puppet corpse!” After receiving the thrown pills, Wang Yongan spoke coldly.

“Puppet corpse?”

Xu Mu immediately understood that Wang Yongan was talking about those white butterflies that he had taken.

So these things are called puppet corpses. Could it mean corpse puppets?

The thought flashed across Xu Mu’s mind as he broke into a smile.

“Friend Wang, I spent a lot of spirit stones making this antidote, we can consider these puppet corpses as a compensation. If you disagree, you can return the pills to me and I will immediately surrender your puppet corpses!”

“You, Damn it!”

Wang Yongan had no choice but to swallow his fury. He couldn’t possibly return the medicine to Xu Mu.

It’s a pity though; those puppet corpses had taken him a lot of effort to create.

“Friend Xu, we are all working for the princess. Isn’t this a bit inappropriate for you to force a trade? If word gets out, who will dare to help the princess in the future?” Lu Kui said sarcastically from the side.

He was quite determined to pick a fight with Xu Mu.

“Friend Lu, since you’re proficient in fortune-telling, maybe you should predict whether you’ll have a bloodbath in the future before you speak!” Xu Mu laughed lightly.

“You…”

Lu Kui gritted his teeth in anger. This was clearly an outright threat.

“Enough! Do you want people to laugh at you for fighting in public?” Li Youlan’s face darkened as she spoke coldly.

“Pardon us.”

Everyone immediately shut their mouths.

“Go back and rest! Xu Mu, come with me!”

“Yes!”

Xu Mu led the two servants away with Li Youlan, and the others scattered.

Watching the retreating figures of Xu Mu and Li Youlan, Wang Yongan’s eyes revealed a resentful look. Not only did he lose face today, but he was also afraid that he wouldn’t be entrusted with important tasks by Li Youlan in the future.

A look of determination flashed in his eyes and he turned to leave with long strides.

Lu Kui opened his mouth as if to call out to him, but considering the circumstances, he eventually chose to give up.

I’ll find an opportunity to speak privately later!

…

When Xu Mu arrived at the Vineyard, where Li Youlan was, he let the two maids stay by the door, and Elder Jin went back to his own residence, leaving only him to follow Li Youlan into the courtyard.

“Friend Xu, do you know why this place is called the Vineyard?”

Li Youlan stood in the courtyard and began to speak.

“It’s probably because of this vine tree, right?”

Xu Mu looked at the vine tree hanging down from the rooftop like a purple waterfall and responded.

“Correct! This vine tree has a thousand-year-old spirit, and it’s a rare tier six spirit plant. Its roots, leaves, stems, and flowers can all be used in remedies!” Li Youlan nodded and said.

After a moment of silence, she suddenly showed a touch of melancholy.

“I don’t like the vine tree itself, but I have to live here to maintain the spiritual energy in the courtyard and for the spiritual objects it produces. It’s just like living in the royal family, where there are things you have to fight for and things you have to do.”

She turned her head back towards Xu Mu.

“I hope you won’t hold it against me for not standing up for you tonight!”

“Your Highness need not speak like that! If I can’t handle just the two of them, then I have no right to participate in the magic duel competition!” Xu Mu laughed.

“Friend Xu, you truly are an intelligent person!” Li Youlan laughed.

“Your Highness didn’t bring me here just to talk about this trivial matter, did she?”

“Not at all. I just wanted to ask, what kind of skill was the body virtualization technique you used?”

“Tier seven Virtualization Skill!”

“Tier seven Virtualization Skill?”

Li Youlan thought for a moment but had no recollection.

She didn’t dwell on it. It was normal not to recognize one particular skill among countless ones in the world.

“Can you sell it to me?”

“But this is my unique skill!”

“What do you mean?”

“At least one hundred top-grade spirit stones!”

“…”

Li Youlan’s mouth twitched.

One hundred top-grade spirit stones were enough to buy a top-tier martial method inheritance.

She wanted to purchase it just because she thought it was interesting and might come in handy in the future.

“I’ll pass on the one hundred top-grade spirit stones.”

Li Youlan shook her head.

Although she was not short of spirit stones, she did not want to be the one to lose out either.

“No, Your Highness! We can negotiate the price!” Xu Mu hurriedly said.

For him, copying a skill was as easy as a snap of the fingers, and it was essentially free spirit stones. There was no reason to refuse.

“One top-grade spirit stone!”

“…”

You’re a princess, and you bargain too hard!

“Deal!”

“…”

Li Youlan was speechless.

After reviewing the content of the copied skill by Xu Mu, Li Youlan immediately realized –

I overpaid!

“How did you practice this skill?”

She doubted if the skill given by Xu Mu was a fake, as according to its introduction, the difficulty of practice was not only terrifying but even life-threatening.

“Just practice step by step according to the jade slip.”

“…”

It’s as if she hadn’t said anything.

Li Youlan stored away the skill jade slip. It was just one top-grade spirit stone anyway; if she lost out, she lost out.

“Does Your Highness have any other business? If not, I’ll take my leave!” Xu Mu said.

“How proficient are you in Alchemy?” Li Youlan suddenly asked.

“Why would Your Highness ask about this?”

“There is a task here that requires someone proficient in Alchemy to complete. If it’s done well, you could obtain resources good enough for advancing to the late stage of the Golden Pill!”

“Is tier eight enough?”

“…”
