Longevity begins with an old woman

Chapter 178 Secret
After Xu Mu came out of the Pharmacist's Hall, he immediately headed towards the Gujian Peak. On the way, he happened to meet a merchant who turned back.

"Why are you here? How is Senior Sister?"

"I don't know about this either." Shang Yaoyao spread his hands and said.

"You took him away, how could you not know?" Xu Mu asked with a frown.

"I was going to take her to the Pharmacist Hall, but she woke up halfway and insisted on letting me take her back to Gujian Peak. After returning, she went to the peak alone to find the drunkard master "Shang Yaoyao complained.

Xu Mu frowned, looking at the mountain peak covered in clouds and mist in the distance, various thoughts flashed in his mind.

Luo Qingchen's various abnormal behaviors made him feel that Gu Jianfeng must be hiding some secrets.

But Xu Mu didn't mean to delve into it.

He entered Tianhe Sect to obtain Tianyi Shenshui, not to pry into other people's privacy.

"If that's the case, forget it! I believe Senior Sister Luo must have her intentions in doing this!"

"I think so too!" Shang Yaoyao said.

"Let's go back!"

Xu Mu continued to fly towards Gujian Peak.

"Didn't you watch the game?"

"There's nothing to see when chickens are pecking at each other!"

"I didn't expect your tone to become quite loud now!" Shang Yaoyao teased slightly.

"By the way, how's your game going?"

"Why don't you ask!"

"Then I won't go back with you, I have to collect money!"

Shang Yaoyao's eyes lit up, and he rushed out of the mountain gate.

Back at Gujian Peak, Li Heng was sitting alone in the yard alone. He didn't respond to Xu Mu's passing, so he didn't bother him, and went back to his own yard, honing his spiritual power to prepare for breaking through and establishing a foundation.

After he was going to get the Foundation Establishment Pill, he immediately made a breakthrough.

Originally, with his current background, he could break through even without the Foundation Establishment Pill, but with the Foundation Establishment Pill, he can do more with ease and lay a stronger foundation.

Most of those disciples who suppressed their cultivation base and did not advance, had this idea.

In the evening, Daniu and Erniu came to ask him to eat.

Luo Qingchen still didn't come back, and Shang Yaoyao also didn't come back.

"Third Senior Brother, Fourth Senior Brother, your skills are really getting better and better!"

Xu Mu praised while eating.

"Hey hey hey!"

When the two of them heard Xu Mu's praise, they could only smirk, but that kind of happiness came from the heart.

Li Heng was eating, a little absent-minded.

"Senior brother!"

"Brother, is there something wrong?"

Xu Mu looked up at Li Heng.

"That, big sister..."

Li Heng hesitated and stuttered, and finally said: "Forget it, it's okay! You can rest early after eating, and there is a competition tomorrow!"

After all, he didn't say it out loud, and Xu Mu didn't pursue it. He said "oh," and went back to his room to rest after dinner.

On the second day, there was still no sign of Luo Qingchen, and Li Heng didn't have any intention of going up the mountain to check. Xu Mu didn't see any worry on his face, as if he expected Luo Qingchen to be fine.

Xu Mu didn't delve into it either, and rushed to the Qingyun Palace where the competition was held alone.

As for Li Heng, he said he would wait for Luo Qingchen, so he would not go, and only told Xu Mu to be careful.

"That is the disciple of Gu Jianfeng!"

"Didn't you see it? Are you sure!"

"I think he's coming to an end today, everyone who can make it to this round is a weakling!"

Xu Mu did not expect that as soon as he arrived at the scene, he would attract a lot of attention, and everyone would talk about him.

It seems that his game yesterday had a great impact, so it can attract attention.

Another reason is that there are not many remaining contestants in this round, each of them has a lot of fame, and Xu Mu, who was originally unknown, is of course more likely to attract attention.

Xu Mu didn't care, and found a corner to stand, observing the surrounding situation, while waiting for the game to start.

Compared with yesterday, the number of people who came to watch today has increased again, especially the number of elite disciples in the Foundation Establishment period has almost doubled.

There are even a few elders of the Jindan stage sitting high in the clouds.

"You came very quickly, I thought I would wait for you for a while!"

Not long after, the excited Shang Yaoyao also rushed over and found Xu Mu in the corner.

"I came here early when I had nothing to do! How about you, how many spirit stones have you turned these few rounds?"

"Not much! Not much!"

"Not much is how much?" Xu Mu asked.

There is a part of him here.

"Leave that aside, what happened to you yesterday, your odds dropped a lot?" Shang Yaoyao asked back.

This woman obviously wanted to cheat him with Lingshi, but fortunately, he had expected it.

"Maybe it was too hard yesterday! But I can't help it. The strength to get to this level is not too bad. Even if I win by tricks, no one will believe it!"

"I know this. Anyway, try to suppress it as much as possible and delay the time a little longer. These are all spirit stones!"

"I know!"

Not mine again!

Xu Mu cursed in his heart.

He had made up his mind a long time ago. After this competition, he would part ways with Shang Yaoyao. These spirit stones just happened to be the return of the other party's investment.

The reason why he did this was not because of Shang Yaoyao's character. Although Shang Yaoyao was greedy for money, he was not stingy. Although he was always nagging, he never withheld his resources.

The main reason was that commercial medicines could no longer afford him.

Originally Xu Mu thought that Shang Yaoyao made a contract with him in the name of the family, but later he found out that Shang Yaoyao made the decision privately.

That is to say, the resources that Xu Mu has consumed in his practice in the past few years are provided by commercial medicines, not by merchants.

The qi training period is fine, but the ability to trade medicines in the foundation building period is a bit stretched.

Of course, Xu Mu can also make a bridge between Shang Yaoyao and formally follow the merchant, but obviously that is not necessary, only he can get the first place, and there are better choices.

Just as the two were talking, a light curtain appeared in the air, revealing the names of the opponents.

"Qian Zhengyang? Why does it feel a little familiar?"

Seeing the name of Xu Mu's opponent, Shang Yaoyao said with some doubts.

"It was the one that injured Senior Brother Li, you forgot." Xu Mu's eyes flickered, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

It's really a narrow road for enemies!

Originally, I was just talking casually, but I didn't expect to actually run into it.

"What! It's that bastard! You have to teach him a lesson and avenge Li Heng! By the way, why didn't Li Heng come?"

Shang Yaoyao finally came to her senses. She looked around, but she didn't see Li Heng.

"Senior Brother Li can't come because of something! Don't worry, I will let this guy know how powerful our Gujian Peak is!" Xu Mu laughed.

He is not a small belly, and he must report his teeth, he just thinks that he has encountered a more interesting thing.

"Okay... No, no, no! You have to hide your strength!"

Shang Yaoyao suddenly remembered that he still had to earn Lingshi.

As for revenge—

Or wait until next time!

"Don't worry, it won't take much strength to deal with him."

After a while, Qi Yue came over to say hello, the two chatted for a while, and then left when the game was about to start.

Lu Baiyu and Qu Qingmeng, the two favored sons of heaven, were still the first to play. The two defeated their opponents without accident, followed by Bai Yingwu and Qi Yue, who also won, but there was no Lu Baiyu and Qu Qingmeng. Qu Qingmeng is so easy.

"I didn't expect that kid to be quite strong!"

After watching Qi Yue's match, Shang Yaoyao couldn't help but boast.

"His talent, no matter how you say it, was ranked in the top ten back then, it's not surprising that he has this kind of strength." Xu Mu laughed.

"But compared to you, it's still far behind!" Shang Yaoyao said with some disdain.

"Different!"

Xu Mu shook his head.

The opponent is a real talent, but he relies on cheating.

"It's different there?"

"Don't talk about this, it's up to me!"
