狠狠躁夜夜躁人人爽天天天天

“Friend Zhang, it’s been a while since we last met, how have you been?”

“What brings you here?”

Opening the defensive array of the cave dwelling, Zhang Tianluo, looking at Xu Mu standing at the door, was apprehensive yet irritated.

It couldn’t be helped, anyone who gets knocked out upon meeting someone would not be thrilled.

If it weren’t for fear that Xu Mu had done something to her, she would have run away already.

“Can’t I come?” Xu Mu smiled.

“Hmph! Speak your mind! If you want to fart, just do it!”

Even though she knew that she was no match for Xu Mu, Zhang Tianluo still acted haughty, just like a spoiled little princess.

“Shouldn’t you invite me in for a cup of tea first?” Xu Mu asked, smiling without anger.

“Hmph!”

Zhang Tianluo snorted coldly, and could only step aside to let him in.

Because she knew, even if she wanted to stop him, she couldn’t.

The gap in their powers was too wide. If he really wanted to kill her, it was nothing more than a matter of a moment.

Though she had bought some soul defensive magic artifacts during this period, she still had no confidence when facing Xu Mu.

Once inside the cave dwelling, Xu Mu acted as though he was in his own home, making tea and drinking water at his leisure, to Zhang Tianluo’s annoyance.

“Speak up, I need to cultivate.”

Zhang Tianluo urged again.

“Don’t rush!”

Xu Mu gulped down the freshly brewed tea, leaves and all.

This unrefined action caused Zhang Tianluo’s eye to twitch.

“I want to ask about the situation of the Sea Race in the vicinity.”

“This is a shallow water area, where would the Sea Race come from?” Zhang Tianluo’s eyes flashed as she replied coldly.

“Let’s not beat around the bush, if there are no Sea Race around, where did your sea bottom resources come from?”

“I collected those myself from the deep sea!”

“While you could collect regular materials, surely several hundreds or thousands of catties of sea grains couldn’t also be collected bit by bit!”

Sea grains are the most common crops in the sea, and collecting them personally with Zhang Tianluo’s foundation establishment stage cultivation level would be comparable to ordinary people picking sesame seeds from the ground – it’s simply not worth it.

Clearly, there are large quantities of low-level Sea Race providing for her.

“Say whatever you want, I don’t know what you’re talking about!”

Zhang Tianluo stubbornly denied anything, refusing to admit it.

It’s not her fault for denying things, it’s a matter of life and death.

Because this trade channel is her lifeline.

Her achievements today are all thanks to this trade channel.

If the Sea Race she trades with finds out that it was her who leaked the information, not only would this channel be finished, she might also be pursued to death by the Sea Race.

Not only would her life be at risk, but her future cultivation methods and upgrade resources would be gone, which would be no different than killing her.

So facing Xu Mu’s questioning, she clenched her teeth and refused to let go.

“Friend, don’t rush, don’t you want to know the price I’m offering?”

Xu Mu said, pretending to be profound.

“No matter what you say, I won’t tell you, even if you kill me.” Zhang Tianluo said, her chin raised in defiance.

This was her laying her cards on the table, fixing a firm stance.

“Friend, why don’t you take a look first.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Mu’s aura began to change dramatically.

Zhang Tianluo, sensing danger, quickly rose to her feet and summoned her protective magic artifact.

She thought Xu Mu was going to attack.

But in the next moment, she saw Xu Mu’s figure begin to transform dramatically.

From human, he quickly turned into a half-man, half-shark creature of the Sea Race.

“What illusion spell are you using?”

Zhang Tianluo asked in shock.

She used her Divine Intent to scan several times, but found no flaws.

“This isn’t an illusion, if you don’t believe it, you can try.”

With a meaningful smile on his face, Xu Mu extended his transformed right hand.

Zhang Tianluo hesitated for a moment and, driven by curiosity, extended his hand. He then infused his spiritual power into Xu Mu’s body for a thorough inspection.

Xu Mu yielded to Zhang Tianluo’s spiritual power entering his meridian channels, offering no resistance whatsoever.

This was indeed a risky move, as his enemy could launch an attack from within, leaving him defenceless and susceptible to devastating injury.

But this applied to others, not Xu Mu.

For Xu Mu, who had cultivated the Heavenly Extreme Purple Thunder Body, even if his meridians were damaged, he was absolutely confident about defeating Zhang Tianluo.

He dared to drop all defences and allow Zhang Tianluo’s spiritual power into his body.

This kind of confidence came from immense strength.

However, Zhang Tianluo was unaware of these.

Upon realizing that Xu Mu had willingly allowed her spiritual power into his body, Zhang Tianluo felt a mix of astonishment and affection.

Anyone would be moved when confronted with such trust.

Of course, she also couldn’t help but entertain some malicious thoughts, wondering whether she should take this opportunity to severely injure Xu Mu.

If she could seize this opportunity to defeat Xu Mu, she would not only free herself from his control but also gain great rewards.

Fortunately, she hesitated for a moment and ultimately suppressed this dangerous thought.

She concentrated on using her spiritual power to sense the changes in Xu Mu’s body.

Shortly after, she opened her eyes, her shock clearly evident on her face.

“Could you be a transformed member of the Sea Race?”

Zhang Tianluo asked in shock.

Through her spiritual sense, she found that Xu Mu’s body structure closely resembled that of the Sea Race, making it impossible for him to belong to the Human Clan.

Therefore, she couldn’t help but suspect that Xu Mu was an infiltrator from the Sea Race, planted within the Human Clan.

But if that was the case, why would he confide in her, much less approach her for information about the Sea Race?

“I am a bona fide member of the Human Clan. The reason for this transformation is simply due to a particular martial method that I have cultivated.”

Xu Mu reverted back to his human form, allowing Zhang Tianluo to inspect his body with her spiritual power again.

The astonishment and elation were clearly visible in Zhang Tianluo’s eyes after the inspection.

Noticing the change in her expression, a secret smile played on the corners of Xu Mu’s mouth.

Because he knew that the allure of this particular martial method for Zhang Tianluo was lethal.

For a cultivator like Zhang Tianluo, who possessed the bloodline of the Sea Race, they seemed to have the advantages of both clans, but in reality, were looked down upon by both, considered a humiliation.

Especially the mixed-blood individuals who lived at the bottom strata of society, they were either treated as animals or as playthings.

Zhang Tianluo’s current status was only secured because of her strong abilities.

Witnessing the power of the Twelve Startle Cicada Skill, a fierce internal struggle was visible in Zhang Tianluo’s expression, after which she stared at Xu Mu with fierce determination.

“Do you intend to offer this martial method in exchange?”

Zhang Tianluo was clearly tempted.

No mixed-blood individual could resist the allure of this martial method.

If Xu Mu indeed intended this, she would agree without a moment’s hesitation.

As for other resources and channels, to hell with them! Nothing compared to becoming a pure-blood member of the Sea Race!

A dream she only dared to dream!

She knew that in the Inner Sea, the first test to join any faction was a bloodline test. Even a trace of Sea Race bloodline would result in its immediate expulsion.

From this, one could understand the miserable lives led by the mixed-blood individuals.

Zhang Tianluo, who had climbed up from the bottom, understood this hardship and suffering better than anyone else.

Not a single day went by without her wishing to fully transform into either a member of the Sea Race or the Human Clan!

This time, however, Xu Mu simply shook his head with a smile.

“What exactly do you mean? You showcase the martial method but refuse to hand it over… Are you here just to toy with me?”

Zhang Tianluo was so angry that her face turned pale.

Xu Mu’s attitude made her wish he hadn’t come at all, rather than giving her false hopes.

“How could mere information be enough to trade for such a precious martial method? I have another condition!”

“What condition? As long as it’s not too excessive, I’ll agree!”

Zhang Tianluo was somewhat impatient to reveal her bottom line.

She would give Xu Mu anything he asked for, as long as it didn’t cost her life.

“I want you to become my Dao companion!”
