60: Upon learning this in Chapter 60, I was incredulous!

[Ding!]

[Congratulations to the host for taking Old Taoist Xu Que as your Master, you have gained 10,000 pleasure points!]

The System's voice flashed through his mind.

Chu Xiao was stunned for a moment.

What's going on?

Taking a Master can actually earn extra pleasure points?

And so many!

This is even more than killing a Child of Fortune or winning over a Goddess-level girl!

Could it be because of the System upgrade?

Or is there some other secret about this Old Taoist Xu Que?

In terms of cultivation, this Old Taoist Xu Que was merely a Peak Foundation Establishment stage Cultivator, not some grand powerhouse.

If it came down to a fight, he probably couldn't even take one full-strength punch from me.

So, how are these pleasure points calculated?

Chu Xiao felt a bit confused, but suddenly, he realized something...

Right!

When the System was first bound, it said: [pleasure points can be obtained by showing off and face-slapping, collecting treasures, beating or killing enemies, capturing the hearts of beauties... and is not limited to the conditions above.]

Since even taking a Master can get so many pleasure points, what if I take all the treasures the old man hid? For example, those Innate Spiritual Essences sealed in stones, or that beautiful Female Zombie.

If I take them all, wouldn't I earn a massive amount of pleasure points?

Old Taoist Xu Que described those Innate Spiritual Essences as miraculous; they were definitely extraordinary treasures!

Thinking of this.

Chu Xiao couldn't help but get excited and quickly asked, "Master! Do you know how to make this Heaven and Earth Spiritual Essence acknowledge me as its Master?"

Old Taoist Xu Que smiled and shook his head. He knew very little about Heaven and Earth Spiritual Essence, most of which he learned from Chu Xiao's grandfather. As for the method of acknowledging a Master, it was a secret technique of the Spirit Catcher lineage that was never shared with outsiders.

Perhaps in ancient times, when Spiritual Qi was still abundant and Cultivators were prevalent, this method of acknowledging a Master wasn't considered a secret.

But in this day and age, the methods of cultivation have gone through several gaps. Let alone the secret technique for making a Heaven and Earth Spiritual Essence acknowledge a Master, even the most common cultivation techniques have basically long since vanished.

...

It seems that to learn the method for acknowledging a Master for this Heaven and Earth Spiritual Essence, I'll have to ask the old man personally.

Through deep conversation with Old Taoist Xu Que, Chu Xiao learned a lot about cultivation. He discovered that this world was originally full of wonders. In ancient times, there were indeed Cultivators, and even legends of Immortals were true.

Chu Xiao had a sudden realization. It seemed that because he upgraded the System, Spiritual Qi was reviving in this world. And with the revival of Spiritual Qi, those animals and plants were undergoing incredible changes.

This change could be understood as Atavism!!!

Or it could be understood as Evolution!!!

The two of them talked a lot. Chu Xiao asked about the doubts in his heart, and Old Taoist Xu Que told him everything he knew. Although he was just a Loose Cultivator, his knowledge was quite profound.

As they talked.

They got onto the subject of divination. Old Taoist Xu Que immediately cast a hex. With just a slight shake of that Black-armored Turtle Shell, he calculated the burial place of the old man Chu Jianghe: the Taklamakan Desert.

"Uh... Master, isn't there a more specific location? Do you know how big the Taklamakan Desert is? How am I supposed to find Grandpa's remains?"

Chu Xiao asked, caught between laughter and tears.

Old Taoist Xu Que smiled and shook his head, "Disciple, don't be anxious. Compared to finding your grandfather's remains, there is something more important we need to do!"

Chu Xiao instinctively asked, "What is it?"

Old Taoist Xu Que raised his hand and cast another hex. His brow immediately furrowed, and he clicked his tongue, "Strange! Strange! Your grandfather's Rebellious Disciple's fate has changed too! Originally, he should have rushed back today!"

Years ago, Old Taoist Xu Que predicted that Chu Jianghe would die at the hands of his own disciple, so Chu Jianghe made a bet with him and they made an agreement.

If 30 years later Chu Jianghe really died at the hands of his disciple, then Old Taoist Xu Que would take Chu Jianghe's place to suppress the evil here, preventing Chu Chen from opening the Seal to release that Forbidden Creature.

"What! You're saying the person who killed my grandfather is Chu Chen?"

Chu Xiao lowered his voice, his eyes flashing with endless killing intent, as well as doubt and disbelief.

He certainly knew Chu Chen. Not only did he know him, but they were very familiar. They could be said to have grown up together and had an excellent relationship.

According to seniority, Chu Chen was Chu Jianghe's nominal adopted son, so Chu Xiao should call him uncle!

However, since their ages weren't that different, Chu Xiao had always called Chu Chen "brother"!

In his memory, this Chu Chen was a very good person, with a mild temperament, sensible, and very yielding. He took good care of Chu Xiao when they were children. If there was anything good to eat or play with, he would never compete with Chu Xiao.

If Chu Xiao was bullied outside, Chu Chen would stand up for him without hesitation, once even beating someone into the hospital.

Although they both grew up later, they never lost contact. They would call each other during holidays to check in, and their relationship was close.

Chu Xiao could never have imagined that the person who killed his grandfather would be Chu Chen!

"That's impossible! How could it be him! Master, you didn't calculate it wrong, did you?"

Chu Xiao clenched his fists.

Old Taoist Xu Que sighed and shook his head, "Your grandfather thought so too! That's why he's dead! When looking at a person, you must never just look at the surface! Some people are born with a rebellious bone! That kid Chu Chen, I saw his hypocrisy the first time I met him; he's a backstabber!"

"As for whether it's true, within three days, he will definitely come here to try and open the Seal! At that time, you can ask him yourself!"

Hearing this.

Chu Xiao fell into silence. From the bottom of his heart, he didn't want the person who killed his grandfather to be Chu Chen.

"Alright! I understand!"

...

Two hours later.

A helicopter flew overhead and landed steadily on the large lawn of the villa's courtyard. Three bodyguards armed with live ammunition jumped out of the cabin.

After a brief identification.

The leading bodyguard stepped quickly toward Chu Xiao and said in a muffled voice, "Young Master, we are here to take you to Kyoto! Please come with us! We will ensure your safety on the way!"

Chu Xiao shook his head, "I'm not going."

The bodyguard frowned, "If you don't go, it will be hard to explain to the boss! Please don't make things difficult for us!"

Chu Xiao smiled weakly and said, "Don't worry, he won't make things difficult for you! Just take Lingyin away! I still have some things to handle! When I'm done, I will naturally go to Kyoto to see him!"

At this point, Chu Xiao's expression had turned cold. Before clearing up the matter with his grandfather, he would not go to Kyoto.

If the person who killed his grandfather really was Chu Chen!

Then, this person!

He would definitely slaughter him with his own hands!
