271: Break the cold

“Your intentions are impure, so let's just forget about it…”

Mu Wuchen shook his head and spoke slowly.

Although Grandmaster Cui's artifact refining skills were good, they were of no use to Mu Wuchen…

Not to mention the weapons he could exchange for in his System World, just the weapons he obtained from the treasure trove after killing the Son of Destiny, Chu Qing, far surpassed anything Grandmaster Cui could offer…

Moreover, this old man, though seemingly humble and eager to learn, was actually very opportunistic.

Mu Wuchen looked down on him and didn't need him…

Seeing Mu Wuchen's refusal, Grandmaster Cui sighed, a look of disappointment on his face…

From Mu Wuchen's cultivation, demeanor, and his casual display of these weapons without any concern, it was clear that the person before him had an extraordinary background and was not someone he could afford to offend.

Therefore, although he was unwilling, he dared not show it.

“Alas, since this young master looks down on this old man, then this old man cannot force it. If young master has no other treasures, then please leave…”

Mu Wuchen glanced at Grandmaster Cui and nodded slightly.

Although the Grandmaster Cui before him was driven by profit and somewhat cowardly, he wasn't a bad person…

His skills were surely not easily acquired, so his words and actions were extremely cautious. Even when Mu Wuchen showed contempt for him just now, he dared not offend him in the slightest…

Mu Wuchen wasn't particularly fond of this kind of cultivation attitude, but he couldn't say he looked down on it either.

After all, most people are not Sons of Destiny, pushing through everything, crushing all realms, and achieving the Supreme Realm…

Most people, during their cultivation, have already had their edges smoothed, losing the youthful vigor, seeking advantages and avoiding harm, disregarding their true intentions.

The world is bustling, all for profit; the world is chaotic, all for profit.

The common people are mostly those willing to be oxen and horses, kneeling to pick up broken silver…

Mu Wuchen led Su Meier and Luo Shuihan forward…

As he walked past, he also looked up at the special device next to the old man.

That was the thing that had just killed the fat cultivator with a single strike.

He actually still had many treasures brought out from the Secret Realm, all things he had casually picked up that seemed decent, and they were in his System World…

However, Mu Wuchen was not worried.

Because his System World had never failed him.

Once something entered his System World, it was completely isolated from this world.

But what surprised Mu Wuchen was that just as he passed by that device, he keenly sensed that a power, identical to the one that had killed the fat cultivator, seemed to be suddenly brewing within it!

However, in the blink of an eye, that power disappeared…

Was that detection device controlled by someone?

Mu Wuchen's face showed confusion.

He originally thought that this thing was just for detecting the aura of weapons from Profound Weapon Pavilion, to kill those who harbored lucky and wanted to sneak in…

Now it seemed it wasn't that simple.

This thing seemed to be controlled by someone behind the scenes.

And it could strike whoever it wanted!

But why did it release power against him just now, intending to attack him?

And why did it suddenly give up and stop in just a blink of an eye…

Was it the four weapons he had just taken out?

Or was there something else on him…

Mu Wuchen casually searched himself and found that there seemed to be no overlooked treasures from the Secret Realm…

With his confusion, Mu Wuchen left the branch hall.

Because they had connections, they came out very early.

Most people here were still waiting in line for verification.

As for the martial arts competition for marriage, there was still some time left.

Mu Wuchen simply led Luo Shuihan and Su Meier back to their previous residence to rest…

Mu Wuchen had many questions now.

Firstly, in the Secret Realm, he always had a feeling that besides Hongyu, Azure Cloud, Green Scale, and Frozen Snow, the four Little Sword Girls, he always felt that they were not complete…

But in the Secret Realm of Profound Weapon Pavilion, even after they searched everywhere, they still found nothing else.

Secondly, the identity of the woman who was about to participate in the martial arts competition for marriage, whether she was related to the Son of Destiny, Su Yun, and whether she possessed destiny points…

As for the third, what was the reason for the sudden appearance and disappearance of the attack from that device just now, and who was controlling that device from behind…

Mu Wuchen shook his head, no longer thinking about these things.

Instead, he led Luo Shuihan and Su Meier into the System World…

After all, Mu Wuchen had just said that Luo Shuihan was going to be a succubus tonight…

Mu Wuchen entered the System World and found that it was still daytime.

Mu Wuchen waved his hand, and a curtain suddenly appeared in the sky, instantly turning day into night…

This was his world; this night, it could be as long as he wanted…

On the cloud bed.

Mu Wuchen had originally thought that Luo Shuihan, being accustomed to her cold and aloof demeanor, and once being a lofty female Supreme Realm, would find it difficult to adapt to such a contrasting role…

But Mu Wuchen deeply understood a saying.

There are no ladies on the bed.

Nor are there any immortals…

Luo Shuihan got into character much more than he expected…

From her appearance, it seemed she truly wanted to retaliate against Mu Wuchen for the oppression she had endured during this period, completely venting her emotions, as if she wanted to thoroughly drain Mu Wuchen…

However, after a long night, it was she who collapsed…

After one night, Luo Shuihan huddled on the bed, her face as pale as paper, trembling as if she had fallen seriously ill.

Under normal circumstances, a Supreme Realm's physique should not be like this.

Mu Wuchen discovered that after one night, Luo Shuihan's body was like a deflated ball, her strength gradually dissipating, and her cultivation level was visibly plummeting…

At this moment, the cinnabar mark on Luo Shuihan's forehead had disappeared…

At this time, cold air was gradually emanating from her body…

Luo Shuihan cultivated ice-element spells, and the cultivation technique she practiced was the not-low-level Water Moon Heaven Chill Art. Logically speaking, her tolerance to cold should be the highest…

A female Supreme Realm who cultivated ice-element spells, an immortal who had always been accompanied by ice, was actually frozen like this…

Clatter, clatter, clatter…

Luo Shuihan's teeth chattered incessantly, and her body, lightly draped in a transparent veil, also trembled continuously.

Her body huddled into a ball, her arms wrapped around her chest, trying to find a trace of warmth, but it was useless.

She looked at the man in front of her with complex eyes, trembling as she spoke, but her eyes were full of stubbornness.

Her relationship with Mu Wuchen was now completely different.

“Cultivating the Water Moon Heaven Chill Art requires maintaining a perfect body. If the yin energy disperses, cultivation will be lost. No direct descendant of Water Moon Immortal Palace has ever been able to break this….”

“My primal yin has been lost. It won't be long before the extreme cold power within my body dissipates, and I will completely become an ordinary person…”

“To make a lofty immortal, a pure and untainted female Supreme Realm, abandon all dignity and become a succubus…”

“Becoming that absurd appearance from yesterday, you must be very proud, right?”

…
