Xu Mu, I really didn’t expect you could break through to the Foundation Establishment Stage!”

After rounds of love-making, Chi Feiyan’s tender body lazily curled up in Xu Mu’s arms, her autumn-water-like eyes affectionately gazing at her love, she murmured softly: “It’s like a dream!”

So, you didn’t believe in me at first!” Xu Mu stroked her dark hair with a somewhat teasing smile and said, “Then why did you still help me?”

Of course, it’s because you are a scoundrel. Without your help, how could I survive!”

Chi Feiyan made a coquettish complaint, her exquisite face wearing a look of grievance.

If it wasn’t for Xu Mu breaking her secret skill, she wouldn’t have been so kind- hearted to help him both physically and financially.

Luckily, her investments had finally paid off.

Xu Mu advancing to the Foundation Establishment Stage would provide a great help to her future.

From now on, I belong to you!”

Chi Feiyan gazed at him, her eyes filled with affection.

What? Weren’t you mine before?

Of course not, before this, I was just your…

Then I prefer how things were before.

After another bout of lovemaking, Chi Feiyan recalled to ask Xu Mu the reason he looked for her.

Previously, she always sought him out, but now Xu Mu took the initiative to come to her. She didn’t believe it was merely for pleasure.

I want you to help me sell Foundation Establishment Pills!

Foundation Establishment Pills?!!

Chi Feiyan’s beautiful eyes widened in shock, she suddenly sat up straight causing the robe covering her body to slip from her shoulders revealing her jade-like skin.

You still have Foundation Establishment Pills?” Chi Feiyan hurriedly asked.

Of course, I do!

How many?

Thirty!

Chi Feiyan was flabbergasted. She couldn’t believe her ears. She started calculating in her head the value of thirty Foundation Establishment Pills. The figure she came up with made her heart race.

Where did you get so many pills from?

After regaining her composure, Chi Feiyan asked. Considering that she gave Xu Mu the pill recipes only half a year ago, she found it hard to believe that he could already make Foundation Establishment Pills.

She guessed there must have been an unexpected source for these pills. Could it be that he robbed a tier-four alchemist?

You don’t have to know that; all you have to know is that I won’t cheat you!

Xu Mu took out a Foundation Establishment Pill, laid it in front of Chi Feiyan, she watched it, eyes wide with desire, as if she would like to snatch it instantly.

I can sell the pill for you!

Without any hesitation, Chi Feiyan agreed, and her voice turned sweet, “But, Xu Mu, is there any pill for me from the numerous Foundation Establishment Pills?”

That depends on your performance! With so many Foundation Establishment Pills appearing in the Liyang Sect’s territory, if we get caught, you should know the consequences, and I do not want to take action myself.”

Xu Mu spoke gently with a smile on his face, but that made Chi Feiyan feel an unexplainable chill in her heart.

She knew if she were not careful and gave them away, Xu Mu would kill her in order to save himself .

Of course, she could choose to refuse.

But considering the huge profits from the Foundation Establishment Pills and the influence they could bring, the ambitious Chi Feiyan found it hard to resist such a temptation.

No worries! If the plan doesn’t go well, you don’t need to do anything, I’ll settle it myself!” Chi Feiyan confidently assured him.

I like working with smart people, especially intelligent and beautiful women!”

Xu Mu laughed as he gently nudged her cute nose.

In fact, he couldn’t find anyone more suitable than Chi Feiyan. If not for her, he would have to do it himself.

But how would he sell so many pills?

It would certainly not be feasible to go shop by shop, right?

How are you going to reward me?” Chi Feiyan’s eyes were full of seductive charm, her exquisite face would easily stir the desire for conquest.

You will naturally get your reward once the task is completed! I could even give you some Foundation Establishment Pills!”

Having said that, Xu Mu stood up to leave, but was held back by Chi Feiyan.

I want my reward now!”

After a while, Xu Mu left a Foundation Establishment Pill and disappeared.

Only a satisfied Chi Feiyan, lying there as a ray of white light shone through a crack in the window, illuminating her skin, as exquisite and radiant as fine jade.

In the following month, except for regularly delivering Foundation Establishment Pills to Chi Feiyan, Xu Mu spent most of his time at home with his wife and daughter.

Every night, he would lose himself in nine rounds of lovemaking without a trace of homesickness.

Given the hot demand for Foundation Establishment Pills, Xu Mu wasn’t worried about not being able to sell them. Regardless of those who’ve reached Foundation Establishment Stage, or those who haven’t, as soon as they heard Chi Feiyan had Foundation Establishment Pills, they couldn’t wait to buy them, even if they had to sell everything they own.

Because even if they didn’t need the pills now, they could keep them for future use.

However, if they missed this opportunity, it would be hard to buy these pills again in the future.

Furthermore, all the Foundation Establishment Pills Xu Mu sold this time were middle-grade, much better than the lower-grade Foundation Establishment Pills readily available in the market.

The only problem was how to select buyers who had ample Spirit Stones and yet would not betray them among the vast crowd of purchasers.

This was why Xu Mu took the risk of having Chi Feiyan sell the items rather than doing it himself.

If he entered the scene himself, small-scale sales would be feasible. However, large-scale sales would not work without a middleman like Chi Feiyan.

Besides, this would not be a one-time incident. He would continue to sell in large quantities in the future, so he would eventually need a proxy like Chi Feiyan.

Despite the great risk, the rewards were equally astounding.

Under normal circumstances, he could refine a batch of Inferior Foundation- Building Pills for at most one top-grade Spirit Stone, yielding four to five pills per batch. The Foundation Establishment pills sold by Chi Feiyan were priced at a minimum of two top-grade Spirit Stones each.

This was still credited to the fact these pills were sold privately, disallowing bargaining. If these were auctioned, the price could double.

Based on this, one batch of Foundation Establishment Pills could earn tenfold profit.

Such high costs and high profits were the reason why even the Tianhe Sect couldn’t help but enforce restrictions.

Regardless, Xu Mu made a fortune this time.

After selling thirty Foundation Establishment pills, he reaped sixty superior Spirit Stones, equivalent to six hundred thousand Lower-grade Spirit Stones.

After finishing the last transaction for Spirit Stones, Chi Feiyan collapsed into his arms, her voice coy, “Xu Lang, I’ve earned so much for you, how are you going to reward me?”

Isn’t this enough?

Xu Mu frowned.

It’s not!

After some intimacy, Chi Feiyan finally complied.

In fact, in the process of selling the pills, Chi Feiyan garnered innumerable benefits along with Xu Mu’s massive earnings.

Just having Foundation Establishment pills in hand was enough to make numerous cultivators court her favor, easily establishing a vast network of connections.

Not to mention, she also made a considerable profit margin herself.

Xu Mu was well aware of this, but didn’t bring it up— he priced every pill at two top-grade Spirit Stones as always.

After all, you can’t expect the horse to run without letting it graze.

I have one more task for you.

What is it?

Help me purchase the tier four Spiritual Medicine, the Grass Renewal Pill!

Now that he had Spirit Stones, it was time to focus on his Body Refinement Realm cultivation.

A few more days quickly passed by.

As the dawn light began to shimmer, a crow emerged from the ground and slipped into Xu Mu’s sleeve.

Feeling no increase in the crow’s power, Xu Mu frowned.

Where have all the Ghost Cultivators gone these past few days, have they become scared?”

Besides the first few days he’s been back, when the crow successfully hunted a few Foundation Establishment Stage Ghost Cultivators and significantly increased in power, it has been unproductive lately.

A bit concerned, Xu Mu had breakfast and went to visit Hou Quan of the Liyang Sect, bringing with him a gift.

After a casual chat, he learned from Hou Quan that the Ghost Cultivators had all headed to the directly administered region of the Tianhe Sect.

The Ghost Cultivators’ greatest animosity was naturally against the Tianhe Sect.

Also, only by wiping out the Tianhe Sect could they truly rest easy. Stirring trouble in other sects was merely to distract the Tianhe Sect while forcing sect cultivators who had gone to support the Tianhe Sect to return.

If something were to happen to the Tianhe Sect, the whole region would turn into a Ghost Realm, and there would be no peace for at least a century!”

With the crow’s ability to suppress Ghost Cultivators by his side, even if Xu Mu encountered a late Foundation Establishment Stage Ghost Cultivator, he would have nothing to fear. However, if he were to encounter a Golden Core Stage Ghost Cultivator, he would have no choice but to flee.

At present, the Golden Core Stage Ghost Cultivators were all tied down by the Tianhe Sect, posing no immediate threat to him, but nobody knew what the future would hold.

Once I have stepped up my Body Refinement Realm cultivation, I will take Ying Ying and the others to Pursuing Wind City!”

Compared to the chaotic region of the Tianhe Sect, the Gang Ming Ocean Territory was decidedly safer and offered a much better cultivation environment.

Setting his mind on this plan when he was in Pursuing Wind City, his thoughts started to waver after meeting Junior Sister Bai from the Butian Pavilion.

However, seeing the current state of the Tianhe Sect, he felt the Cang Ming Ocean Territory would be safer when compared.

There was another reason: with so many unanswered questions about the spatial rift, he was worried that if he left, he might never return. Under such circumstances, he naturally wanted his family by his side.

In the event of problems with the spatial rift, they could always settle down on the other side.

That was the very reason he had been shutting himself away lately. Even when other Foundation Establishment cultivators from the Liyang Sect came to visit, he lied about being in closed door cultivation to consolidate his cultivation base, declining all visitors to avoid drawing too much attention when he left.

After bidding farewell to Hou Quan and hurrying back home, Xu Mu quietly waited for news from Chi Feiyan.

Soon after, Chi Feiyan brought him a piece of disconcerting news.

Someone had set their eyes on her!

Still on Guyang Street, in the Purple Stone Alley, in the house rented by Chi Feiyan specifically for their private meetings.

Chi Feiyan, dressed in a light yellow gauze, knelt by Xu Mu’s side, gazing at him with a tense expression.

Can you identify the strength of the person involved?

Xu Mu lightly tapped his fingers on the table, causing a rhythmic tapping sound.

it

They’re probably in the early or middle stages of Foundation Establishment! replied Chi Feiyan, gripping her dress.

How many are there?

Two!

Xu Mu sat with his eyes half-closed, his index fingers firm on the tanwood table, not speaking for a while.

Xu Lang, what should we do now?” asked Chi Feiyan, unable to keep her composure.

Kill you!
