Chapter 99 Duan Hongling's Excitement
[Congratulations, host, on successfully gifting the Ten-Thousand-Year Tree Root. This is your first gift of Duan Hongling, triggering a thousandfold critical hit and returning the magic item, the Pure Jade Bottle.]
[Jade Bottle: It contains condensed elixir of immortality, which, when used for bathing, can cure all ailments and heal injuries.]
The system's voice sounded, and Xu Xiao's eyes lit up slightly as he nodded in agreement.
It seems that this is a huge, ten-thousand-year-old spiritual root that has been returned to me, the kind that I can never use up.
Cool!
Seeing the strange and complicated look in her eyes, Xu Xiao waved his hand and laughed, "Don't worry, it's all just rumors outside. Senior Sister, you can use it without worry. I won't ask you to do anything."
The other person's expression was too complicated.
I felt both excited and worried.
It makes him seem like some kind of perverted old lecher.
Duan Hongling looked at the other person's indifferent smile and tightly grasped the jade hand holding the ancient tree root.
Her delicate brows furrowed slightly, and the colors in her beautiful eyes shifted.
Her beautiful face flushed slightly as she frantically made a decision!
Junior Brother Xu Xiao, there's only one reason for doing this: he's after her looks!
The opponent has less than fifty years left to live, so spirit stones and pills are useless against him.
Considering the other person's lifestyle, it's no surprise that Junior Brother Xu Xiao was attracted to his appearance!
However, perhaps because they were familiar with each other, the other party did not say it explicitly.
But she... was almost two thousand years older than him...
Looking at the ancient tree root surrounded by mysterious spiritual energy in her hand, Duan Hongling's eyes gradually cleared.
This is an incredible opportunity for her!
You absolutely cannot miss it!
Having returned to the path of immortality, what does a mere physical body matter?!
Xu Xiao shook his head and reminded her again, "Senior Sister, go back and heal your injuries. If you can advance to the Void Refinement stage, I will have made a contribution to the sect before I die."
Duan Hongling looked over, her beautiful eyes filled with a cold and resolute expression.
She owes nothing to anyone!
She stretched out her beautiful, jade-like hand and grasped Xu Xiao's palm.
A soft, cool sensation came over me.
"Senior Sister, what are you doing?!"
He could feel the other person's rapidly beating pulse.
Duan Hongling's eyes remained cold and stern as she said, "Junior Brother Xu, I, Duan Hongling, owe nothing to anyone."
“You’re going to die of old age, spirit stones and pills are useless to you, and I know what you want.”
"This is just interest. I will repay you once I recover from my injuries!"
As she said this, a hint of determination flickered in her eyes.
"Huh? Senior Sister Duan, you've misunderstood. I didn't mean that."
Xu Xiao frowned and shook his head.
The other party is an old lady who is over 2,800 years old!
He's hundreds of rounds older than him, he really has no idea!
"Humph!"
Duan Hongling sneered, "Don't worry, I, Duan Hongling, never go back on my word."
"Junior brother, thank you for your ten-thousand-year-old spiritual root. This thing is very useful to me now."
"If I return to the path of immortality, you will be my greatest benefactor, Duan Hongling!"
After saying that, she released Xu Xiao's hand and carefully put away the locust tree root.
Filled with immense excitement and longing, she blushed and stepped out the door.
She was still a little dazed.
That perverted old lecherous junior brother actually obtained a ten-thousand-year-old spiritual root while repairing his cave!
I even gave it to her!
I never dared to dream that she would have such an opportunity!!
"You old lecher... If my hidden ailment is cured, I'll see if you're really the kind of person the rumors say you are!"
Slightly distracted, Duan Hongling walked past the disciples in front of the gate.
"I...I'm so pissed!!!"
When Xiao Wang and Xiao Li saw Duan Hongling's appearance, they were all stunned, as if struck by lightning.
Then he saw the old lecher who had come out with a kind smile and even squeezed his own palm.
The disciples completely broke down and lost their composure.
Holy crap!!!
You old pervert!!!
That's insane!!!
Elder Duan is an elderly female cultivator who is over two thousand eight hundred years old!
They don't even let this go!!!
Fuck you!!!
The disciples, including Xiao Wang and Xiao Li, could hardly believe their eyes.
Judging from Elder Duan's dazed expression, it was clear that the old lecher had definitely extended his evil claws, forcing Elder Duan to submit!
Elder Duan!!!
You must hang in there!!!
We absolutely cannot let that lecherous old man get his way!!!
Oh my god!!!
"What are you doing?"
Xu Xiao glanced at the group of stiff and bewildered disciples, his eyebrows furrowing slightly.
"Xiao Wang and Xiao Li, the three sects of the Hundred Herbs Sect are now under our jurisdiction. Take these communication talismans and go patrol the three spirit mines now."
"These affiliated sects must hand over half of the spirit stone revenue to our Misty Sect, lest it be robbed by the demon race."
Xiao Wang and Xiao Li snapped out of their daze and said tremblingly, "Yes! Martial Uncle!!"
Elder Duan, a seasoned ninth-level Nascent Soul cultivator, found himself at a disadvantage against the old lecherous demon.
These lowly disciples dared to offend the old lecher; they're doomed!
Terrified, no one dared to breathe!
That old pervert is terrifying!!
......
Several days later, Duan Hongling was in seclusion healing her injuries with her ten-thousand-year-old spiritual root, and she was nowhere to be seen.
Elder Mu was even busier, personally supporting the affiliated sects' mining sites in various places, and sometimes even having to bring along the two Nascent Soul cultivators, Xiao Wang and Xiao Li, to help.
The mines outside Iron Curtain City, under the jurisdiction of the Misty Sect, are mostly mined by Core Formation and Nascent Soul disciples.
Core Formation cultivators have a tough time, digging day and night to earn spirit stones.
Nascent Soul cultivators are slightly better off, as they can take turns returning to Iron Curtain City to guard the mansion and rest for a few days.
The three spirit mines under Xu Xiao's jurisdiction are currently unaffected. Xiao Wang, Xiao Li, and the strong individuals dispatched by affiliated sects are able to manage the situation, so there is no need for him.
In the mansion garden, Xu Xiao finished his cultivation and came to the pavilion for tea.
[Detected: Woman of Destiny: Mu Yu'er]
[Luck Level: B]
Return multiplier: 10
[Bond Level: 1]
"Oh?"
Xu Xiao's old eyes flickered, and he looked in the direction indicated by the system.
At the main gate of the mansion, a group of Nascent Soul cultivators were changing shifts and returning to guard the mansion, handing over their duties to the previous group.
Among the returning group of Nascent Soul cultivators was a beautiful female cultivator with fair skin and a green dress.
She has a youthful and beautiful appearance, looking to be in her early twenties.
Xu Xiao looked at it, smiled and shook his head.
"Isn't this Elder Mu's granddaughter? I didn't expect her to be a woman of destiny as well."
"Still a B-grade."
"Old Mu, despite his unkempt appearance, has managed to have such a beautiful granddaughter."
"Send him some things for his granddaughter, and that old miser Mu will be so happy he won't be able to sleep, haha."
