21: Section 21

Thinking this,

Chu Mo tried to circulate his Origin Qi, and sure enough, he felt much smoother. After using his Qi and blood to clean the dirt from his body, he found that even his skin had become much more delicate and smooth.

At a glance,

His skin was lustrous, like flawless glazed jade, pure and unblemished.

“As expected of a heavenly yuan spirit crystal!”

Chu Mo exclaimed.

Afterward,

He left the stone cave.

As for the naturally formed Spirit Array, he did not destroy it.

Always leave a path.

Leaving this Spirit Array here, perhaps ten thousand years later, a Heaven And Earth Treasure will be born again, and by then, a new fated person might arrive, allowing them to change their destiny in a Heaven-Defying way.

Chapter 18: Returning to the Sect, How to Conquer Su Lian Yue

On the way back, Chu Mo also took the Opportunity to search for a few Opportunities he had previously recorded.

Although this delayed him for some time, he finally returned to Taichu Holy Land three days later.

“Mission complete!”

He went to the Merit Hall and handed in the mission to exterminate the bandit stronghold.

He received 120 merit points.

Merit points could be exchanged for various Heaven And Earth Treasures and Cultivation resources in the Holy Land treasury, but with only a mere 120 points, he couldn't exchange for any good Magic Treasures.

Chu Mo didn't care.

He had already obtained many Magic Treasures from his trip.

Not only had his Realm risen to True Spirit Realm Eighth Level, but he had also undergone a Mixed Origin Dao Embryo Fusion!

Additionally, he had an Earth Rank Magic Sword, Azure Cord!

A Heaven And Earth Treasure, a heavenly yuan spirit crystal!

And the green destiny, Heavenly Gifted Roots!

Furthermore, there were some miscellaneous Cultivation resources!

It could be said that his gains were immense!

Leaving the Merit Hall, Chu Mo headed towards Outer Sect Peak.

“Senior Brother Chu!”

“Hello, Senior Brother Chu!”

Along the way, many Outer Sect Disciples respectfully greeted him, their attitudes very enthusiastic.

The news of Chu Mo defeating Zhao Hu and then killing Inner Sect Disciple Zhao Feng on the Life and Death Platform had already spread.

It shocked many Outer Sect Disciples.

None of them had expected that Chu Mo, who had always had mediocre Aptitude and relied on seniority to become the Great Master, would possess such terrifying strength.

This was simply unbelievable!

But whether they believed it or not, the facts were right before them.

Zhao Hu was now in constant fear, afraid of Chu Mo's retaliation, and the scene of Zhao Feng being cut down with a single sword strike was witnessed by many, making it impossible to fake.

Everyone understood.

Chu Mo's title as the Outer Sect Great Master was now truly well-deserved.

He would even be promoted to the Inner Sect after the Outer Sect Great Competition.

Among Martial Artists, strength was paramount.

The strength Chu Mo now possessed could no longer be ignored; he had to be given respect.

Therefore,

This was the current situation.

Chu Mo was well aware of the change in these people, but he didn't care.

To flatter the powerful and attach oneself to the rich is human nature.

There was nothing to blame.

As long as he continued to be strong and displayed an invincible posture,

All the past contempt, malice, and ridicule would vanish, and what would always surround him would only be flattery, respect, and fawning.

…

“Young Master, you’re back?”

As soon as he returned to his wooden house, he heard a pleasant voice.

Following the sound,

It was none other than the little Utility Disciple, her face full of pleasant surprise.

“I’m back.”

Chu Mo nodded and asked, “Have you been well these past few days? No one has come to cause trouble, right?”

“No.”

Su Lian Yue shook her head.

Then she happily said, “Young Master, after you killed Zhao Feng, many Outer Sect Disciples became especially respectful to you, and even treated me much more kindly. Now on Outer Sect Peak, those Outer Sect Disciples will even proactively speak to me when they see me!”

“It’s good that you weren’t bullied.”

Chu Mo deliberately rubbed Su Lian Yue’s head, and her face immediately flushed, her body stiffening on the spot, instinctively showing a slight struggle.

Noticing this, Chu Mo quickly spoke, diverting her attention: “Oh right, I also brought you a gift from this trip.”

These words indeed shifted Su Lian Yue’s attention, and her subconscious urge to push Chu Mo away also subsided.

At this moment,

Chu Mo took out a bracelet from his Storage Pouch.

Its exterior was emerald green, completely clear, and intricately carved with dense patterns, looking very exquisite.

This was a protective Magic Treasure he had bought for 1000 Spirit Stones in the Sect market when returning to the Holy Land. Its quality was not high, only Yellow Rank.

The bracelet had a built-in shield that could block a full-power attack from a Martial Artist below Body Tempering Ninth Level.

This price was a bit high for a Yellow Rank Magic Treasure.

But Chu Mo found it quite beautiful, so he thought of buying it as a gift for Su Lian Yue to increase her favorability.

As expected,

Upon seeing the bracelet, Su Lian Yue’s eyes immediately lit up with brilliant light.

But then,

She hesitated: “Young Master, this is too precious… I am just a Utility Disciple serving you; how can I be worthy of wearing such a treasure?”

The more she spoke, the softer her voice became, and the light in her eyes grew dimmer.

“If I say you are worthy, then you are worthy!”

Chu Mo said gently, then took her wrist: “Come, I’ll put it on for you!”

He knew he had to act swiftly, so he didn’t give her a chance to explain, and with an undeniable gesture, he personally put the bracelet on her wrist.

“How is it? Do you like it?”

Chu Mo asked.

“Young Master…”

Su Lian Yue lowered her head, still wanting to say something.

Chu Mo directly interrupted: “Just tell me if you like it or not. If you truly don’t like it, then I’ll really take it back!”

“Yes, I like it.”

After a long silence, Su Lian Yue finally gave her answer.

Her voice was barely audible, like a mosquito.

“It’s good that you like it. Wear it well, and don’t lose it!” Chu Mo smiled again, rubbed Su Lian Yue’s head, and said softly.

She responded in a low voice, then lowered her head, not daring to look at Chu Mo.

Only her exposed neck showed a blush.
