35: Is this reasonable? Is this scientific?

“The cosmetic surgery effect is good. If it were brought to this world, it might sell well, but…”

“It’s not worth it!”

He stroked his chin, lost in thought.

Chu Mo felt that this matter wouldn't work.

Exchanging points for Spirit Stones? That’s just a thought; there are so many good things in the points mall that require points.

And Spirit Stones can’t be exchanged for points.

Using points to buy Medicinal Pills to sell well in this world is simply thankless and a huge loss.

Just as he was thinking of waiting in the group chat for Ning Haocheng to get him a treasure that could conceal his Qi, a familiar voice came from behind him.

“Han Li, Han Li…”

Luo Qingdie?

Why is this woman at Si Guo Cliff?

Luo Qingdie’s figure came closer and closer.

Chu Mo, however, twisted his face and observed his surroundings.

Luo Qingdie can basically be confirmed as the female lead. As for the male lead, it’s either the Demon Lord or Shen Qingqiu.

And he…

An Extraterrestrial Demon!

Transmigrators are people from other worlds, so to the original world, they are naturally Extraterrestrial Demons.

“Senior Sister Luo, is there something you need?” Chu Mo feigned an intimate address. With his Golden Core Stage strength, he couldn’t detect whether the Tribulation Stage Shen Qingqiu was nearby.

But one thing was certain.

Luo Qingdie was a big problem.

The less contact, the better.

When his strength was great enough, grabbing her and instantly refining her would be the best way to conclude things.

At this moment, Luo Qingdie walked up to Chu Mo, curiously scrutinizing him. “Junior Brother Han, I’m here to supervise your Cultivation of the Haoran Righteous Qi Skill. This is a Cultivation Technique personally taught by Senior Brother Shen. Why aren’t you Cultivating this Cultivation Technique?”

Cultivating such a Cultivation Technique?

I painstakingly Cultivated to the Golden Core Stage; am I supposed to just give it up?

Chu Mo inwardly disdained the Haoran Righteous Qi Skill, but he showed no flaws on his face.

“Senior Sister Luo, you exaggerate. It’s not that I won’t Cultivate this Cultivation Technique; it’s that I’m thinking.”

“Thinking?” Luo Qingdie’s curiosity was instantly piqued. “What are you thinking about?”

“I’m thinking about the true Profound Truth of the Haoran Righteous Qi Skill. Haoran refers to the righteous Qi of Heaven and Earth. When I was young, I attended a private school, and my teacher once said that scholars Cultivate a breath of righteous Qi in their hearts.

If righteous Qi resides in the heart, then all evil cannot invade!

So I was thinking, if I want to Cultivate the Haoran Righteous Qi Skill, shouldn’t I start by studying?

Cultivating a breath of Haoran Qi will naturally give rise to a Dao Heart!”

Chu Mo’s words left Luo Qingdie stunned and confused. She had no idea about cultivating Haoran Qi through studying, but listening to him speak so eloquently, she inexplicably felt it made sense.

It’s just that when she Cultivated back then, it was smooth sailing, and the Cultivation Technique formed naturally; there weren’t so many twists and turns.

How did it become so ritualistic here?

Chu Mo didn’t give Luo Qingdie a chance to think and continued to ask her, “Senior Sister Luo, can you help me by getting some books for me, so I can read peacefully to Cultivate Haoran Qi and successfully Cultivate the Haoran Righteous Qi Skill?”

“This… alright, alright!” Under Chu Mo’s persuasive words, Luo Qingdie left Si Guo Cliff in a daze.

When she remembered later, she recalled that she was supposed to supervise his Cultivation of the Haoran Righteous Qi Skill, but then again, without reading to Cultivate a breath of Haoran Qi, he couldn’t get started…

So, Junior Brother needs to read more books.

At this moment, Luo Qingdie was completely drawn in, entirely forgetting that the steps for her own Cultivation of the Haoran Righteous Qi Skill didn’t require these things.

On Si Guo Cliff, Chu Mo watched Luo Qingdie leave, his expression turning serious. He had to quickly Cultivate the Qi Gathering Art; otherwise, it would be difficult to fool people later.

As for fooling the Tribulation Stage Shen Qingqiu, he could only take it one step at a time.

“Sigh, with my inherent Aptitude, if I switch to Cultivating the Haoran Righteous Qi Skill, I don’t know how many years it will take to Cultivate back to the Golden Core Stage!

What a pity! What a pity!

The Blood Skull Gu is a good thing, but unfortunately, there are no zombies; otherwise, I could really try it.”

A Venerable from a certain world once said, when your Aptitude is insufficient, think more about your family.

However, unfortunately, Chu Mo had no family.

Of course, in the Immortal Cultivation world, there are also Heaven And Earth Treasures that can improve Aptitude, but with his current ability, it is very difficult to obtain those treasures.

The points mall is also ridiculously expensive.

His current situation is like a Hidden Dragon in the abyss; when he can become a Soaring Dragon depends on when he can leave Xuanxiao Sect.

…

Great Qi World, Capital.

In the imperial court, civil and military officials stood in rows.

Thud!

Qi Xuan, on the throne, swept everything off the table and roared at the officials below, “How long has General Tianbao been back in the capital, and outside, you’ve made a complete mess!

One hundred thousand against three thousand, just as they were about to successfully encircle them at the Hutuo River, the river froze, letting those rebels escape? And when they crossed, the ice melted? Is that scientific? Who brings weather weapons and geological modification to war?

Speak!

And this, he went to Linzhou alone for a stroll and recruited three hundred thousand peasant rebels! When the army lacked food, wild game fell from the sky into his pot.

Even novels wouldn’t dare to portray this!

Oh, I get it, you guys can’t deal with these rebels, so you make up absurd stories to fool me!

Do you know that deceiving the emperor is a capital offense?”

Qi Xuan slammed the desk, roaring at his ministers. He felt as if these guys were colluding to make up stories for him.

Indeed, bringing back Xia Wuyan, the valiant female general with eight hundred thousand troops, to the capital had made these guys arrogant.

If he truly got angry, he wouldn’t mind a bloodbath of the entire imperial court, giving an opportunity for aspiring scholars in the world to rise.

But at the same time, the outbreak of peasant uprisings within the Great Qi also made him very incomprehensible.

Although he was somewhat neglectful of his duties, he was not a tyrant or a corrupt ruler.

He advocated the imperial examination system, giving scholars throughout the land a chance to ascend to the imperial court. When the aristocratic families disagreed, he even had Xia Wuyan lead the army to parade around.

After all, eight hundred thousand troops were not just for show; if the aristocratic families of the world didn't agree to the imperial examination system, they would face extermination of their nine generations.

Additionally, he also reduced peasant taxes, encouraged agriculture, valued commercial trade, promoted craftsmanship, and emphasized cultural education.

With these measures implemented, even if he couldn’t be called a wise ruler, he was at least a moderate one, right?

But why were there still peasant uprisings?

And they grew from three thousand to three hundred thousand in an uprising; this was completely abnormal and illogical!

No, it’s unreasonable!

If the problem isn’t with me, then it must be with these guys in the imperial court!

At this moment, Qi Xuan seemed possessed by Zhu Yuanzhang, looking at the officials in the imperial court, finding them increasingly displeasing.

It must be these guys who were deceiving their superiors, defrauding the law, and oppressing the common people, leading to all of this.

Qi Xuan took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and said, “Now, who was that rebel leader again?”

“Wang Xiu.”

“Oh, right, Wang Xiu. Wang Xiu developed from three thousand rebels to three hundred thousand rebels. That’s no small number. Who among you is willing to go suppress the rebellion? And while you’re at it, find out why these people rebelled…”

Mid-sentence, he paused.

Who? Wang Xiu?

The rebel leader is named Wang Xiu?

Are you kidding me?!

At this moment, Qi Xuan was somewhat dumbfounded, and his hand on the desk kept tapping, becoming more and more rapid.

It was clear that his heart was far from calm.

All the ministers in the court bowed their heads in silence, not uttering a word, each becoming a shrinking turtle.

They had learned about the war reports from the front lines, and they had learned about them in great depth.

The more they learned, the more alarmed they became.

The rebel army led by Wang Xiu did not seem like an ordinary army at all; it was more like they had immortal deities helping them.

The various Heaven-Defying operations had already led them to believe that the other party was the legendary True Son of Heaven.

Wherever he went, he was naturally blessed by Heaven.

Moreover, some ministers in the court had already secretly contacted Wang Xiu, intending to follow him to gain the merit of assisting a Dragon.
