Chapter 178 Secret

After Xu Mu came out of the Medicine Hall, he immediately rushed towards Gujian Peak. On the way, he happened to meet Shang Yaoyao who was returning.

"Why are you here? How is senior sister?"

"I don't know about this either." Shang Yaoyao spread his hands and said.

"You took the person away, how could you not know?" Xu Mu asked with a frown.

"I was originally going to take her to the Medicine Hall, but she woke up halfway and insisted on letting me take her back to Gujian Peak. After returning, she went to the top of the peak alone to find the drunkard master. ." Shang Yaoyao complained.

Xu Mu frowned and looked at the mountain peaks covered by clouds and mist in the distance, with various thoughts flashing in his mind.

Luo Qingchen's various unusual behaviors made him feel that Lone Sword Peak must be hiding some secrets.

However, Xu Mu had no intention of going into details.

He entered Tianhe Sect to obtain Tianyi Divine Water, not to pry into other people's privacy.

"In that case, forget it! I believe that Senior Sister Luo must have her own intentions for doing this!"

"I think so too!" Shang Yaoyao said.

"Let's go back!"

Xu Mu continued flying towards Lone Sword Peak.

"Don't you want to watch the game?"

"Novices pecking each other, nothing to see!"

"I didn't expect your tone to become louder now!" Shang Yaoyao said with a hint of ridicule.

"By the way, how was your game?"

"No need to ask!"

"Then I won't go back with you, I still have to collect the money!"

Shang Yaoyao's eyes lit up and he rushed out of the mountain gate.

Back at Gujian Peak, Li Heng was sitting alone in the yard. Xu Mu didn't respond when he went over, so he didn't bother him and went back to his yard to polish his spiritual power in preparation for breaking through the foundation.

He planned to make a breakthrough immediately after getting the Foundation Establishment Pill.

Originally, with his current foundation, he could break through even without the Foundation Establishment Pill, but with the Foundation Establishment Pill, he can do it with ease and lay a stronger foundation.

Most of those disciples who suppress their cultivation and do not advance have this idea.

In the evening, Da Niu and Er Niu came to call him for dinner.

Luo Qingchen still hasn't come back, and Shang Yaoyao hasn't come back either.

"Third Senior Brother, Fourth Senior Brother, your craftsmanship is getting better and better!"

Xu Mu praised it while eating.

"Hey hey hey!"

When the two of them heard Xu Mu's compliment, they just giggled, but the happiness was completely from the heart.

Li Heng was eating a little absent-mindedly.

"Junior brother!"

"Senior brother, is something wrong?"

Xu Mu looked up at Li Heng.

"Well, senior sister..."

Li Heng hesitated and stuttered, and finally said: "Forget it, it's okay! You can go to bed early after eating, there is still a competition tomorrow!"

After all, he didn't say anything, and Xu Mu didn't ask further questions. He just said "oh" and went back to his room to rest after dinner.

On the second day, there was still no sign of Luo Qingchen, and Li Heng had no intention of going up the mountain to check. Xu Mu did not see worry on his face, as if he was sure that Luo Qingchen would be fine.

Xu Mu did not go into details and rushed to Qingyun Palace where the competition was held.

As for Li Heng, he said he would wait for Luo Qingchen and stopped going. He only asked Xu Mu to be careful.

"That one is the disciple of Lone Sword Peak!"

"Don't you see it? Are you sure!"

"I think he will be finished today. Anyone who can reach this round is a weakling!"

Xu Mu did not expect that as soon as he arrived, he would attract the attention of many people, and everyone would talk about him.

It seems that his game yesterday had a great impact, which is why he attracted attention.

There is another reason. There are not many players left in this round, and each one is quite famous. Xu Mu, who was originally unknown, is of course more likely to attract attention.

Xu Mu didn't pay attention and found a corner to stand, observing the situation around him and waiting for the game to start.

Compared to yesterday, the number of people who came to watch today increased again, especially the number of elite disciples in the Foundation Establishment Stage, which almost doubled.

There are also several elders from the Golden Core Stage sitting high in the clouds.

"You came very quickly, I thought I had to wait for you for a while!"

Not long after, Shang Yaoyao, who was full of excitement, also rushed over and found Xu Mu in the corner.

"I came here early when I had nothing to do! How about you, how many spiritual stones have you turned in these rounds?"

"Not much! Not much!"

"How much is not more?" Xu Mu asked.

He has a part in this.

"Let's not talk about it for now. What happened to you yesterday? Your odds dropped a lot?" Shang Yaoyao asked.

This woman obviously wanted to trick his spirit stone, but fortunately he had expected it.

"Perhaps I struck too hard yesterday! But I can't help it. The strength to reach this level is not too bad. Even if I win by trickery, no one will believe it!"

"I know this. Anyway, try your best to suppress it and delay it for a longer time. These are all spiritual stones!"

"I know!"

Not mine!

Xu Mu cursed in his heart.

He had long made up his mind to part ways with Shang Yaoyao after this competition. These spiritual stones were just the return of the other party's investment.

The reason for doing this is not because of Shang Yaoyao's character. Although Shang Yaoyao is greedy for money, he is not stingy. Although Shang Yaoyao is verbose every time, he has never deducted his resources.

The main reason is because commercial medicine can no longer supply him.

Xu Mu originally thought that Shang Yaoyao made a contract with him in the name of his family, but later he learned that Shang Yaoyao made the decision privately.

In other words, the resources Xu Mu has consumed in his cultivation in the past few years were provided by merchants, not merchants.

The Qi training period was fine, but in the foundation building period, the ability to sell medicine was a bit stretched.

Of course, Xu Mu could also ask Shang Yaoyao to match up and officially follow the merchant, but it was obviously not necessary. Only he could get the first place, and there were better choices.

Just as the two were talking, a light curtain appeared in the air, revealing the name of the opponent.

"Qian Zhengyang? Why does it feel a little familiar?"

Seeing the name of Xu Mu's opponent, Shang Yaoyao was a little confused.

"It was the one who injured Senior Brother Li, you forgot." Xu Mu's eyes flickered and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

It’s really a narrow road for enemies!

It was just a casual conversation at first, but I didn't expect that we actually bumped into each other.

"What! It's that bastard! You have to teach him a lesson and avenge Li Heng! By the way, why didn't Li Heng come?"

Shang Yaoyao finally reacted. She looked around and saw no sign of Li Heng.

"Senior Brother Li can't come because he has something to do! Don't worry, I will let this guy know how powerful our Lone Sword Peak is!" Xu Mu said with a smile.

He was not a petty person who would retaliate when he bared his teeth. He simply thought he had encountered something interesting.

"Okay... no, no! You have to hide your strength!"

Shang Yaoyao suddenly remembered that he still wanted to earn spiritual stones.

As for revenge——

Otherwise, just wait until next time!

"Don't worry, it won't take much strength to deal with him."

After a while, Qi Yue came over to say hello, and the two chatted for a while before saying goodbye and leaving when the game was about to start.

The first ones to come on stage were still Lu Baiyu and Qu Qingmeng, the two most favored men. As expected, they defeated their respective opponents, followed by Bai Yingwu and Qi Yue, who also won, but without Lu Baiyu and Qu Qingmeng. Qu Qingmeng was so relaxed.

"I didn't expect that boy to be quite strong!"

After watching Qi Yue's game, Shang Yaoyao couldn't help but praise him.

"His talent was ranked in the top ten at the beginning. It's not surprising that he has such strength." Xu Mu said with a smile.

"But compared to you, it's still far behind!" Shang Yaoyao said with some disdain.

"no the same!"

Xu Mu shook his head.

The opponent has real talent, but he relies on cheats.

"Is it different there?"

"Don't talk about this, it's my turn!"
