178: The Second Elder's Opportunity Has Come

In Mount Tai, Ji Jiangxue sat on the back of a gigantic leopard demon, one hand holding a diary and the other a fruit, leisurely crossing her long legs.

Ji Jiangxue’s figure was already excellent, and now, after merging with the Mount Tai Mountain Range, it had become even more perfect.

However, Ji Jiangxue had been staying deep within Mount Tai, so there was no one to appreciate this beautiful scenery.

“Ah-woo…”

Ji Jiangxue took a big bite of the fruit, and the juice instantly burst in her mouth, causing her eyes to narrow.

Delicious…

After a while, Ji Jiangxue continued to read the diary.

“I didn’t expect Sakura Island to do such a thing. Are the officials of Sakura Island’s brains full of shit? The world is clearly different now, and they still dare to do this. Are they really not afraid of their race being exterminated?!”

Ji Jiangxue shook her head, muttering a small complaint in her heart before dismissing it. After all, the diary had mentioned that Sakura Island and its surrounding sea area had been sealed off by that Senior named Wu Ya, so it wouldn’t pollute other places.

Just then, the leopard demon she was sitting on seemed to want to go on strike, shaking its body, trying to shake Ji Jiangxue off its back.

“Hmm?”

Ji Jiangxue’s gaze shifted from the diary to the leopard demon beneath her, and then she directly slapped it hard across the face.

The leopard demon became obedient…

It continued to lie on the ground, aggrieved, acting as a qualified cushion.

It didn’t know why, but even though this human in front of it looked so tiny, a mere glance from her could restrict its movements, and she even hit it!

It hurt so much…

Such a small slap, hitting its head, should have been fine, but now its head was buzzing.

Seeing the leopard demon quiet down, its large eyes watery, Ji Jiangxue felt a little unbearable.

Then, with a wave of her hand, a Spiritual Qi-containing fruit from a fruit tree on Mount Tai that was almost evolving into a Spiritual Root automatically detached and flew into Ji Jiangxue’s hand.

Ji Jiangxue threw the Spiritual Qi-containing fruit in front of the leopard demon and said, “Don’t be so aggrieved. Here, this is your reward!”

Upon seeing the Spiritual Fruit, the leopard demon, which had been looking aggrieved, immediately changed to a happy expression.

It lay on the ground, holding the fruit with its two front paws, then carefully nibbled on it, afraid of finishing it all at once before it had savored the taste.

Ji Jiangxue smiled and shook her head at the leopard demon’s appearance, then continued to read the diary.

When she finished reading the diary, a hint of surprise flashed in Ji Jiangxue’s eyes.

“The Grand Elder’s Treasure Seeking Rat… I think it was mentioned in previous diaries. I didn’t expect this Treasure Seeking Rat to recognize the Grand Elder as its master during this period?”

However, after the surprise, Ji Jiangxue felt a little confused: “But… how exactly did this Treasure Seeking Rat recognize the Grand Elder as its master?”

……

In Heng City, at Li Mu’s home, Li Mu was currently dealing with this matter!

Li Mu opened the System store, searched for Treasure Seeking Rat, and soon various levels of Treasure Seeking Rat items and other similar items appeared.

Li Mu took a look; the cheapest Treasure Seeking Rat only cost one thousand Deception Points!

Li Mu was surprised when he saw this price.

After all, he had originally expected the Treasure Seeking Rat to cost three or four thousand.

Because the value represented by a Treasure Seeking Rat was terrifying!

Then Li Mu read the introduction and finally understood.

The Treasure Seeking Rat in the item itself had a low cultivation, only at the Refining Qi Transformation Realm, and it would be very difficult and slow to further improve its strength.

This life, it was estimated to stop at the Refining Qi Realm, unable to Breakthrough to the Soul Transformation stage.

This meant that it could not be used as a battle pet, and its treasure-seeking speed was also very limited.

If it only had these abilities, it would probably only be worth about five to ten Deception Points in the System.

As for needing one thousand Deception Points, it was basically all because it possessed this treasure-seeking ability!

And those more Advanced Treasure Seeking Rats not only had higher cultivation and faster speed, but they could even Breakthrough some Restrictions, and even more Advanced ones could directly enter others’ Cave Heaven Small Worlds.

However, the prices of those Treasure Seeking Rats were too Heaven-Defying, making Li Mu feel a bit pained to buy them, so he gave up.

Li Mu then purchased the lowest-level Treasure Seeking Rat.

Although it was the lowest level, it was completely sufficient for now. After all, in this world, besides the Legacy sites he created, there were no other places with Restrictions.

At the same time, Li Mu also used the System to set up some configurations for this Treasure Seeking Rat, so that the Grand Elder could smoothly become its “poop-scooper.”

After doing all this, Li Mu directly used Heaven’s Secret Art to check the Grand Elder’s current movements.

There was no other way; the System could only check the target individuals who had copies of the diary. Unless a special situation occurred, it could not directly observe the movements of other people.

As Li Mu activated the Heaven’s Secret Art, he quickly knew what the Grand Elder was currently doing!

After completing all of this, a slight curve appeared at the corner of Li Mu’s mouth, and then his entire being instantly vanished from the spot, teleporting directly above the Capital City.

His Divine Sense instantly spread out, covering the entire Capital City, and he quickly found the Grand Elder’s figure within his Divine Sense.

However, Li Mu was not in a hurry to deploy the Treasure Seeking Rat yet. After all, the diary had just been updated not long ago, and it was still a bit too soon.

Li Mu then sat in the clouds, silently observing all the movements in the Capital City below.

Time quickly came to night. When darkness fell, the City below lit up with lights, looking very beautiful.

The Grand Elder had also finished his tasks at this time, greeted the Grand Elder, and then left…

Walking out the main door, he saw the guard who came to pick him up and the car that was already parked.

A smile appeared on the Grand Elder’s face, and he then walked towards the guard.

However, just as he arrived at the car and the guard opened the car door for him…

“Deploy!”

As Li Mu’s faint command was issued, a basketball-sized, blue Giant Rat suddenly darted out from a corner behind the Grand Elder.

Its speed was so fast that it left a series of afterimages behind it, and before both the Grand Elder and the guard could react, it plunged headfirst into the Grand Elder’s car.

“Bang!”

With a loud crash, the entire car shook, and the other bulletproof car window was now covered in cracks.

At this moment, the Grand Elder and the guard also reacted. The guard quickly protected the Grand Elder, then wanted to see what was happening.

They found that inside the car, a basketball-sized blue Giant Rat had already crashed unconscious.
