Half a month later, Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu finally arrived at Ping’an Town.
The two did not rush to collect the bounty but first found an inn and stayed there.
Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu sat together whilst drinking tea. The tea leaves were ordinary and cost only five taels of silver per pound, but the water used to steep the tea leaves was the spiritual water from the dimension. So, this tea was naturally different when one drank it.
“Mufeng, the spiritual energy of the lake water is even stronger!” Jiang Xu said with a look of enjoyment while drinking the spiritual tea.
“Well, yes!” The batch of medicinal pills they sold in Sixi Town rendered them 110,000 spirit stones. Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu each took a share of 20,000 spirit stones. As for the remaining 70,000 spirit stones, Liu Mufeng did not hesitate to throw them all into the dimension lake.
“The flow of time inside the dimension is now ten times faster than outside. I don’t know if it can still be improved in the future!” Thinking of this, Jiang Xu was very excited. In the future, he could go to Mufeng’s dimension for seclusion. It would be ten years inside for one year outside. Therefore, he would have saved nine years more than the others. In this case, his cultivation speed would definitely be much faster than his peers.
“It won’t improve. This is the fastest time flow rate. It won’t increase anymore. At most, the water quality could be improved, but the dimension will not expand anymore!” Ten times was already the highest specification. The original novel also mentioned that the fastest flow of time inside was ten times that of the time outside. There was also the spiritual field. After investing 70,000 spirit stones, the spiritual field had expanded five times. However, it has now reached the maximum size and will no longer expand.
“Oh, that’s how it is!” Hearing this, Jiang Xu felt a little lost. He thought that if he kept investing in the spirit stone, he would be able to keep doubling for a long time? Unfortunately, it wasn’t like that at all.
“What we have to do now is to maintain the status quo. Regularly and continuously invest in spirit stones. Maintain this ten times as long as possible!” Looking at Jiang Xu, Liu Mufeng said.
“Okay, when I get my bounty back, let’s put it in too!” Anyway, he now had 20,000 spirit stones in his hand.
“En!” Seeing such a spirited lover, Liu Mufeng smiled and nodded in agreement.
“Mufeng, I want to collect the reward tomorrow. What do you think?” Looking at the man beside him, Jiang Xu asked.
We’re sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our translations keep getting stolen by aggregators so we’re going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.
“Okay, let’s go tomorrow to get the reward! After receiving the reward, I plan to enter the dimension to refine a batch of medicinal pills. Before we leave Ping’an Town, we can sell another batch, and then we will go to Jialan City.” Looking at Jiang Xu, Liu Mufeng expressed his thoughts.

Seeing the other person’s blushing appearance, Liu Mufeng raised his eyebrows. “But you promised me that you will marry me if Xiao Zhantian doesn’t marry you. Besides, didn’t you also say that Xiao Zhantian has a fiancée? What if they get married soon? If you don’t confess to him early, you will lose your chance. Aren’t you worried?”
“I, I…” Hearing this, Jiang Xu frowned even more.
“Xiao Xu, are you worried about being rejected by him?” Looking at his sweetheart, Liu Mufeng asked suspiciously.
“Yeah, no, I just don’t know how to tell him. Mufeng, can you give me a little more time?” Looking at Liu Mufeng, Jiang Xu said gloomily.
“Well, since you don’t want to go, let’s not go to Jialan City. Where do you want to go?” Liu Mufeng was naturally reluctant to embarrass his sweetheart. Seeing that he was unwilling to go, he didn’t force him.
“I don’t know, I don’t have any special place I want to go to. What about you? Where do you want to go? I’ll go with you. Anyway, we two are together, wherever you go, I will go. We will accompany each other wherever we go!” He was always alone in the family in the past, but now it was different. Now, he could be with Liu Mufeng.
Hearing this, Liu Mufeng smiled, ‘Xiao Xu’s words were easy to misunderstand! If it wasn’t for him knowing that he liked the male protagonist, he would have thought that Xiao Xu was confessing to him!’
“I want to go to Black Dragon City. Black Dragon City is a big city, and the materials in the big city are relatively sufficient. Moreover, Black Dragon City is very close to Black Dragon Mountain, so it is very convenient for us to go out to gain some experience.” Moreover, there was another reason Liu Mufeng wanted to go to Black Dragon City. The original owner was the grandson of the City Lord of Black Dragon City. Even if the Liu Family knew he had left the Zhang Village and his whereabouts, they would not dare to do anything to him because of the Wang’s family.
“Okay, then let’s go to Black Dragon City. Anyway, it is not far from here!” Nodding, Jiang Xu expressed no objection.
“Alright, let’s stay here for a few days, and when the medicinal pills are refined, we’ll go to Black Dragon City. I…” Liu Mufeng was just halfway through his words when suddenly, the spiritual power in his body fluctuated violently. The strength of the Seven Stars of the Spiritual Realm directly jumped to the Nine Stars of the Spiritual Realm.
“Mufeng, you, you…” Jiang Xu was stunned when he saw that his cultivation had promoted two stars from a small realm in the blink of an eye.
“It’s Xiaoyuan!” Liu Mufeng gasped. “Xiaoyuan has broken through to the Spiritual Mortal Realm!” Liu Mufeng was ecstatic. As soon as Xiaoyuan advanced, the strength of her master also increased.
“Xiaoyuan advanced?” Hearing this, Jiang Xu was also pleasantly surprised.
“Yes, she has broken through to the first star of the Spiritual Mortal Realm!” After speaking, Liu Mufeng released Xiaoyuan from the dimension.
Seeing Xiaoyuan lying on the table, her body three times bigger than before, almost the size of an egg, Jiang Xu smiled and touched Xiaoyuan’s head. “Xiaoyuan, congratulations on your breaking through to the Spiritual Mortal Realm!”
“Buzz…buzz.” ‘It’s because my Master’s strength is too low, and it drags me down. Otherwise, I can catch up with you, Boss Jiang.’
Liu Mufeng’s face turned black. His heart sighed, ‘Xiaoyuan ah, this ungrateful insect. If he hadn’t helped her get the dust-cleaning liquid, let her drink a lot of spiritual water, and given her his four spiritual roots, would this insect break the shackles of mixed blood Primordial Spirit Insect and break through the Spiritual Mortal Realm so quickly? This ungrateful insect.’
“What did Xiaoyuan say?” Jiang Xu asked curiously, looking at Liu Mufeng.
“Ah, she said she will try to catch up with you. She also said that you are her Boss and the person she admires the most!” Liu Mufeng said with a smile.
Hearing this, Xiaoyuan glanced at Liu Mufeng with contempt. “Buzz..buzz.” ‘Master, you are going too far, and you lied to Boss Jiang again.’
“What? Don’t you like the water in the lake? Then, why don’t you go to the animal raising bag to be with my newly bought demon horse?” Looking at Xiaoyuan, Liu Mufeng threatened with a smile.
Hearing this, Xiaoyuan immediately lowered her head depressedly. “Master, don’t do this. If you don’t let me stay in the dimension, how can my strength stabilize? Besides, the fish in the lake and the water in the lake are delicious. Maybe I can improve my strength if I drink a little more. When my strength improves, I can also help you improve, ah. Master!”
“Okay, then go back and stabilize your strength!” After speaking, Liu Mufeng was about to throw Xiaoyuan back into the dimension.
“Master, wait a minute!”
“What’s the matter?”
“That grass, the grass that can purify the blood, can I eat it? It’s already mature!” Looking at Liu Mufeng, Xiaoyuan asked eagerly.
“What’s the hurry? You can’t eat hot tofu in a hurry. Those three Lime Grasses have only been cultivated for 50 years. If you eat them now, there will be no effect. When the grass maturity reaches 500 years, I will refine it into Lime Elixir so that you can improve your bloodline twice. It will help you improve your realm as well!”
“Oh, I understand, Master!” Nodding, Xiaoyuan expressed her understanding. “Actually, the spiritual roots of human cultivators are not bad. If there are more spiritual roots, my bloodline level can be improved more!”
“Okay, I see. I’ll figure out a way to do this! Go back first, drink more spiritual water, eat more fish, and stabilize your strength. Also, keep an eye on those guys under your command. Except for the Golden Blade Herbs, other spiritual plants in the field are not for consumption. Especially the three Lime Grasses!”
“Understood, who would eat grass if there is meat?” Rolling her eyes, Xiaoyuan said with a look of disdain and whispered in her heart, ‘Her subordinates drink spiritual water by the lake every day and eat delicious spiritual fish. Who has time to pay attention to those flowers and plants?’ If it wasn’t for the fact that her sense of smell was much more sensitive than other Primordial Spirit Insects as she had advanced to the Spiritual Mortal Realm, she would not have found that those Lime Grasses were spiritual plants that improved bloodline.
“En!” In response, Liu Mufeng sent Xiaoyuan back to the dimension.
“Mufeng, have you noticed that Xiaoyuan’s appearance seems to have changed a bit? For example, the five dots on her back are gone. Also, her color seems to have changed from orange to golden.” Jiang Xu found it very strange. He felt that Xiaoyuan was very different from before after she broke through.
“We helped her improve the relationship of her bloodline. The Dust-Cleaning liquid, the spiritual water, plus my four spiritual roots, these things can help Xiaoyuan enhance the level of the bloodline. The current Xiaoyuan is definitely not the same Primordial Spirit Insect as before, but closer to the Spirit Insect of the Five Elemental Spirit Insects. I see that her whole body has turned golden. So Xiaoyuan’s bloodline should be closer to the Golden Spirit Insect. If she can continue improving and purifying her bloodline, maybe she can return to her ancestors and become a pure blooded Golden Spirit Insect!”
“Golden Spirit Insect? The kind of insect that could spit out a magic weapon with just one mouth?” Jiang Xu was shocked when he heard this.
“Yes, but this is just an assumption. It is not easy to become a Golden Spirit Insect. At least it is impossible for now!” With the resources in hand, it is impossible to cultivate Xiaoyuan into a Golden Spirit Insect
“Oh!” Jiang Xu was a little disappointed to hear Liu Mufeng say this.
“We two are together, wherever you go, I will go” married couple things💅
^.^
I wonder if Xiaoyuan will one day be thankful to her master and respect him or if she will forever look down on him. 😌
Ikr it’s terribly vexing! In the beginning, it was fine because it helped create her personality as a character. Unfortunately, it has worn out its welcome, because her master isn’t even slightly a scummy man.
+1 there is such a thing as being too much. despite LMF helping her out and giving her all he can get she still acts ungrateful… it’s not at all a good trait nor is it “quirky”…
Thank you for the chapter
Thanks for the chapter! Terrible insect, lol.
