Chapter 13: Several Times in One Night?
Chu Ying naturally knew that Yue Yu was intentionally targeting Li Kuang. Looking at Yue Yu's calm and collected expression, he didn't seem to be intimidated by offending Li Kuang. Chu Ying couldn't help but feel a little curious about him. What kind of story lay behind this clever and resourceful young man who knew how to hide his true intentions?
Li Kuang was powerful and had an unusual status. He was usually arrogant and oppressive, often bullying some outer door disciples who were weak and had no background. At this moment, the disciples in the hall who had been bullied by Li Kuang before felt a sense of relief, looking at Yue Yu with a hint of respect in their eyes.
"This brother is really bold and resourceful."
"Yes, you've helped us vent our anger, thank you so much."
"Admire, admire."
……
The young men in the hall were full of praise, some sincere and others momentary flattery.
Yue Yu smiled and didn't answer.
But in his heart, he couldn't help but secretly sigh. Just now, he was still treating me with a cold eye, and now that he knew I was Chu Ying's friend, he suddenly became flattering. What a common disease of human beings.
At the same time, Yue Yu's gaze fell on a handsome young man in white clothes. The young man was standing far away, quietly watching the tasks scattered on the stone wall of the hall, without paying attention to what had just happened. His expression was natural, giving people a sense of calmness and composure, unaffected by praise or humiliation. His eyes were as sharp as swords, emitting a faint chill. Standing there, he was like a sword with its blade exposed, his presence intimidating.
"Master!" The aura emanating from the white-clad youth made Yue Yu's heart skip a beat, and she secretly marveled in her mind.
Chu Ying's gaze was fixed on the white-clothed youth, her eyes filled with intense fighting spirit.
The young man in white looked at each task, his gaze slowly moving upwards, finally fixing on the first task, with a fierce determination in his eyes.
"I've accepted the first task." The young man in white said calmly, and then slowly walked away.
The attendant next to him heard it and was slightly startled, then immediately wrote two words on the first task, "Received"
Everyone also looked at the first task and immediately exclaimed in surprise, with an incredulous expression.
Task Bar: First: Kill the 9th-level peak spiritual beast of Yuanjing Realm, Golden Ape King!
Chu Ying gazed intently at the white-clothed youth's figure disappearing from the doorway, her heart also slightly astonished. Having killed the Open Yuan Boundary Ninth Stage Peak Spiritual Beast herself without being certain, she couldn't help but speculate about the extent of the white-clothed youth's abilities.
Yue Yu didn't know why, but as soon as he saw the white-clothed youth for the first time, he wanted to fight him. However, it wasn't the right moment now, and his mind couldn't help but think of quickly increasing his strength. Moreover, Li Kuang was also a threat; just by looking at the killing intent emanating from his eyes, Yue Yu could tell that Li Kuang would absolutely not let him off. Although he could borrow Chu Ying's power to kill him, Yue Yu wouldn't do that - his own affairs still had to be resolved by himself.
Soon afterwards, Li Lao walked out from the back hall, holding a token made of Xuan Iron in his hand, with a "Yang" character engraved on it.
The crowd also dispersed immediately, looking for tasks suitable for themselves.
"Haha, you've waited long enough, here's your identity token." Old Li handed the token to Yue Yu, chuckling softly.
Taking the token, Yue Yu felt a faint and gentle spiritual energy emanating from it. As he inhaled the spiritual aura, his body felt refreshed all over. A warm current flowed through his body, cleansing the impurities within, and suddenly he had an ethereal feeling as if he was about to ascend to heaven.
Seeing Yue Yu's astonished expression, Li Lao explained: "I mixed some Secret Lu liquid in this Xuan Tian token, which has the effect of clearing one's mind and improving physical fitness. It will be very helpful to you. At the same time, there is also..." Li Lao paused for a moment, revealing a knowing look that only men would understand.
"Zhuang Yang?" Yue Yu asked softly, regardless of Chu Ying's presence beside her. She was also curious in her heart.
"Cough, uh." Old Li coughed lightly and responded. But in his heart, he was secretly thinking, you understand, that's enough, why say it out loud.
"How long does it take?" Yu Yu asked curiously, with a calm and natural expression, without feeling any unnaturalness due to such an ambiguous question.
"It depends on the situation." Li Lao was still seeing this kind of person for the first time, who spoke without reserve and regardless of occasion.
Chu Ying listened to such a sensitive topic and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, glaring at Yue Yu with one eye, signaling him to be more careful.
But Yu Yue seemed as if she hadn't seen it and continued to ask: "How many times in one night?"
"Hmm..." Li Lao was speechless, such a person is truly a rare sight in a hundred years.
Chu Ying glared at Yue Yu even more fiercely, feeling quite helpless in her heart.
"Ow, my stomach hurts." Yue Yu's stomach suddenly started hurting, and she couldn't help but feel a wave of confusion.
"Hehe, don't worry, it's nothing, it's the effect of Peruvian liquid. Some impurities in your body have been absorbed out, now you need to expel them." Li Lao said with a kind smile.
"I'm going to line up now. Thanks for Li Lao's kindness, hehe, I'll try the effect next time." Yue Yu gave a sly smile, looked at Chu Ying with a profound meaning, and then quickly turned around and left, walking towards her residence, with an excited expression on her face.
"Mr. Li, don't mind." Chu Ying said softly.
"Haha, it's rare to see young people like this. This kind of character is really to my taste." Li Lao smiled and said, and in his heart, he indeed had a good impression of Yue Yu. Usually, some young people would be very polite and cautious when speaking in front of him, but Yue Yu was straightforward and unpretentious. As an ordinary person, facing a strong Yuan Shen realm cultivator like himself without being overbearing or servile, it was somewhat unexpected.
Yue Yu walked out of the registration hall with a look of excitement on her face, because at the same time as she felt a stomachache, the system's voice suddenly rang out.
Ding! Absorbed Peruvian fluid, defense increased by 2 points.
By swallowing spiritual elixirs and pills, one can also increase their attribute points, how could Yue Yu not be excited or agitated.
As he walked towards his residence, he gazed at the figures in his mind's eye, and upon seeing the defensive points, he became excited.
Defense Points: 12
Health: 1200/1200
Indeed increased by two points, from the original ten points to twelve points. The life value also increased by 200 with the increase in defense points.
"Others exhaust themselves to cultivate and upgrade, but I can greatly increase my strength just by eating some elixirs. This is defying the heavens!" Yue Yu was so excited that he almost burst out laughing, suppressing his excitement, he quickened his pace, heading towards his residence.
"Hey, brother." Yue Yu Zheng was walking quickly when a smiling youth called out from behind him.
At the age of eighteen, he wore a magnificent brocade robe, with gold and silver ornaments on his hands and neck. His skin was fair, his figure slightly plump, and his face had a good fortune, giving people a feeling of being easy-going and approachable, without any arrogance or pretentiousness.
"This is a rich second generation." This was the first impression Yu Yu had when she saw the fat man in front of her.
"Brother, you were really awesome just now! Can we be friends?" Fatso looked at Yue Yu with a face full of admiration.
Yue Yu thought that the fatty in front of her was genuinely willing to befriend her, rather than trying to curry favor with her, so she smiled lightly and said: "Alright, who is this brother?"
"Don't you know me? I'm a renowned young master of the Kaiyang Sect, who doesn't know that?"
"Since you don't know me, let me introduce myself. My name is Fudaxiong, and I'm a peerless genius who combines elegance and handsomeness in one body. As a person, I've always been low-key and never told anyone that I'm the richest man in the world, or that I have three spiritual roots of wind, water, and earth. Even though my current cultivation has reached the peak of the Void Realm's 9th stage, I've never mentioned it to anyone."
"My cultivation is high, but my self-cultivation is also extremely high. I've never looked at those yellow books, like the poses of Guanyin sitting on a lotus, old man pushing a cart, willow tree climbing vines, old tree coiling roots... and so on. It can be said that my biggest shortcoming is being too perfect."
Listening to Pangzi's introduction, Yue Yu almost fainted. This person's self-love is so high, and his face is too thick. This time he has met his match.
