In the evening, Liu Mufeng, who had been regulating his Qi for two hours, had recovered. The ten Golden Stone Fruit trees had also been successfully transplanted by Jiang Xu. The two asked for some wood from Ergou, and they started roasting fish in the yard.
“Hmmnn, it’s delicious!” Jiang Xu was full of praise for Liu Mufeng’s good cooking skills while eating the golden and crispy grilled fish.
“The main reason is that the ingredients I used for grilling are better, and this is a native fish in the lake. It is the descendant of those 500 fish!” Speaking of this, Liu Mufeng smiled. The 500 fishes he bought before were almost eaten by Xiaoyuan’s swarm of insects. Now the fishes in the lake were the descendants of those 500 fish. All of them were native-born fishes in the spiritual lake. These fishes were much more delicious than the first batch that they raised.
Hearing this, Jiang Xu smiled. “Yeah, these fishes reproduce so fast. They already have grandchildren.” The spiritual water itself promoted the growth of the spiritual plants and demon beasts. The time flow in the dimension was already ten times longer than outside, so keeping the fishes in the spiritual lake was beneficial. They drank the spiritual water and ate the aquatic plants in the lake to grow. Each one was full of rich energy, and the meat was very delicious. Xiaoyuan’s swarm liked to eat these fishes, and even Jiang Xu enjoyed eating a second helping occasionally.
“This one is spicy. I brushed some hot sauce on it. You can try it.” With that, Liu Mufeng handed the second grilled fish to Jiang Xu.
“En.” Jiang Xu took it with a smile. The first fish had a sweet and sour taste. Mufeng brushed a lot of honey on it. The second one was spicy, numbingly spicy. The two fishes’ tastes were completely different, but they were both delicious. Jiang Xu couldn’t stop eating.
Seeing Jiang Xu smiling so happily while eating the grilled fish he made with joy, Liu Mufeng also laughed.
Looking at the two sitting in the yard talking and laughing and eating grilled fish, Dagou was a little cautious. He tugged at the collar of his brother next to him. “Brother, are those two the Immortal Masters you mentioned?”
“Yeah, it’s them. They are amazing. With a wave of his hand, the fruit trees at the village’s entrance flew out of the soil!” Speaking of this, Ergou looked at the two adoringly.
“Really? That’s amazing!” Looking at his brother, Dagou asked uncertainly.
“Of course, can I still lie to you? You didn’t see it. The Immortal Master is really amazing!”
“Ei, if I knew that Immortal Masters were coming to our house, I wouldn’t have gone to the field today.” Speaking of this, Dagou was a little disappointed. He could have seen the Immortal Master pulling trees if he was at home. He heard from the villagers that the scene was so spectacular that ten trees flew out of the soil . In the blink of an eye, the trees disappeared. He heard the village chief say that the ring on the hand of the Immortal Master was called a storage ring.
“Brother, you say, wouldn’t it be great if the two of us could become Immortal Masters.” Looking at the two in the yard, Ergou said enviously.
“What do you say? To be an Immortal Master? Do you think it’s easy to be an Immortal Master? That’s not something anyone can do. It depends on your aptitude and what kind of talent you have.” Both of them have bad aptitudes. It’s just that he was bigger and more stable than Ergou.
“Oh!” Ergou sullenly nodded when he heard his brother’s words.
While they were eating grilled fish in the yard, Liu Mufeng always felt that someone was peeking at them. He released his soul power to sweep through their surroundings and found, not only the two brothers but other three little young village boys hiding behind a low wall in the courtyard, so he didn’t mind them.
After eating the grilled fish, Liu Mufeng took Jiang Xu back to the room.

“Mufeng, what are you doing?” Jiang Xu asked curiously, looking at Liu Mufeng, who was acting strangely.
“Don’t worry, it’s not poison. It’s just a concoction that makes you sleepy.”
“You?” Hearing this, Jiang Xu’s expression became even weirder.
“Go and call Ergou and his brother as well as the three teenagers outside the door.” Looking at Jiang Xu, Liu Mufeng said with a smile.
Hearing this, Jiang Xu was stunned for a while, then smiled. “I know what you’re going to do!” Mufeng should be trying to help Xiaoyuan get spiritual roots!
Seeing Jiang Xu’s enlightened appearance, Liu Mufeng frowned. “Xiao Xu, do you think it’s not good for me to do this?”
“How could it be? You are helping others. How can it be bad?” Most people in this kind of village were ordinary people with multiple spiritual roots or without spiritual roots. If their spiritual roots were washed into single spiritual roots, they could cultivate. So Mufeng was also helping others by doing this.
“It’s not about helping others. It can only be said to be of mutual benefit.” He needed spiritual roots to cultivate his contracted beast, and the teenagers in this village were eager to become cultivators. So he would help them to dig out the excess spiritual roots. Mutual benefit is a win-win.
“It’s all the same, anyway. It’s a good thing, not a bad thing. Mufeng has always been a good person.” With a smile, Jiang Xu turned around and left.
“Good person?” Liu Mufeng laughed when she heard her beloved’s comment. No, he’s not a good person. He just doesn’t have the strength and the capital to be a bad guy.
Not long after, the five teenagers were brought to Liu Mufeng by Jiang Xu.
“Immortal Master, do you have any orders?” Looking at Liu Mufeng sitting on the chair, Dagou asked with sincerity and fear.
“Oh, it’s nothing, it’s just too early for us to sleep and I saw you guys, so I asked you to come over and chat. Don’t be afraid, just sit down.” Liu Mufeng said softly, smiling at the five youngsters.
“Oh!” Nodding, the five young men took the bench and sat in front of Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu.
“Let me introduce myself first. My surname is Liu, and my name is Mufeng. What’s your name?”
“Oh, my name is Zhang Dagou, and my brother’s name is Zhang Ergou. These brothers are Li Sanpang, Zhang Dashan and Zhang Xiaoshan from our village.” When he opened his mouth, Dagou made an introduction.
Hearing this, Liu Mufeng twitched the corners of his eyes and said in his heart, ‘This name really makes people speechless!’ “How old are you?”
“I’m thirteen! My brother is twelve, and the three of them are twelve. They’re all my brother’s friends.” The one who answered was Dagou, and the other four were too embarrassed to speak.
“Oh, you’re not too old. Have you tested your spiritual roots? Do you know what kind of spiritual roots you are? Do you know your aptitude?” Looking at the five people, Liu Mufeng asked again.
Hearing this, the five shook their heads. “No!”
“Don’t you have a crystal ball to test spiritual roots in your village?” Jiang Xu asked curiously, looking at the five people.
“No, our village is impoverished. How can there be such a thing? I heard from the village chief that this thing is precious! It needs a lot of spirit stones to buy.”
“Yeah, I also heard my dad say that things like crystal balls are only available to rich people.”
“Our village is the poorest in Shili Town. How can there be such a thing.”
“Then, haven’t there been cultivators in your village? None?” Liu Mufeng was very curious about this.
“Yes, three years ago, Brother Musheng went to the Lingwu Sect for selection, and the people there tested him for his spiritual roots. He has three spiritual roots and was accepted by the Lingwu Sect.”
“Yeah, Brother Musheng is amazing, the most amazing person in our village!”
“Yes, Brother Musheng is a genius!”
Looking at the adoring teenagers, Liu Mufeng smiled and said in his heart, ‘These children really have never seen any geniuses. If the aptitude of three spiritual roots goes to Lingwu Sect, it is estimated that they can only be an outer disciple. If an outer disciple is ugly, they do chores for the sect. Usually not a big deal.’
“Then, will you also participate in the sect’s selection?” Looking at the five, Liu Mufeng asked again.
“Well, yes, the Lingwu Sect is doing a selection every ten years, and the next selection will be three months from now. At that time, there will be an Immortal Master going to Ping’an Town to select disciples. We will all participate in the selection.” Speaking of this, Dagou smiled. He also hoped that he could be selected by the big sect like Brother Musheng.
“Oh, so that’s how it is.” Nodding, Liu Mufeng took out the glass and poured five glasses of wine. “This is the spiritual wine I brought. It can help ordinary people improve their qualifications. You can have a drink each. Maybe it will be good for you.”
“This, this is not good!”
“Yes, Immortal Master, we, we have no money!”
“Yes, we are very poor and have no money for you!”
“It’s alright. I don’t want your money. It’s fate that we met. I’m a cultivator, and I’m talking about fate. Since I’ve met you, I can help you if I can!” Looking at the five people, Liu Mufeng said with a smile.
“Then, then thank you, Immortal Master!”
“Thank you, Immortal Master!”
“Thank you, Immortal Master!”
After taking the spiritual wine, the five teenagers were very excited. They drank all the wine in the cup with wondrous treasure.
“This wine is really delicious. After drinking it, I feel warm and very comfortable!”
“Yeah, it’s delicious!”
“I, I’m a little dizzy!”
“Me, me too!” After a while, the five teenagers were lying on the table, already unconscious.
“Xiao Xu, help me get the person to the bed.”
“Okay!” Nodding, Jiang Xu grabbed one in one hand, picked up the two brothers, Dagou and Ergou, and put them on the bed.
Holding Zhang Dashan on the bed, Liu Mufeng turned his head and saw Jiang Xu bring the other two over and couldn’t help but smile. ‘Xiaoxu’s strength is really great!’
Taking out the crystal ball, Liu Mufeng began to test the spiritual roots of the five people. The first was Dagou.
“One, two, three, four, five… Oh my God, eight spiritual roots! There are so many spiritual roots. If I hadn’t met him, he would probably only be an ordinary person in this life!” The trash among the trash, this kind of person would struggle to even get into the sect, not to mention cultivation.
“It’s very good, prosperous!” Liu Mufeng said as he released Xiaoyuan and a group of his subordinates. “This is the Eight Spiritual Roots without the main Spiritual Root. You can start the digging in a while, but you must leave a Spiritual Root for him!” Looking at Xiaoyuan, Liu Mufeng warned seriously.
“Why? Such a useless person can’t cultivate, so what spiritual roots would be left for him?” Eight spiritual roots were equivalent to being sentenced to death, destined to be an ordinary person. Xiaoyuan did not understand why her Master will still leave the waste a spiritual root. Couldn’t she just eat them all?
Oof, I feel bad for Dagou
🐞 “Let’s just eat the all.” 🤤. Thank you
Greedy queen. 😌 Aww, but going around and helping the kids to be a cultivator is so great. 😆
If I’m in this novel, i wonder how many spiritual roots i have, maybe eight 😂
Thank you for the chapter
“Good person?” Lieu Menfeng laughed when she heard her beloved > He/his 😕
thanks for the chapter!
Xiaoyuan do NOT be too greedy!
That insect rudeness is not cute no more
I always thought I’m more of morally grey person but I can’t put up with their bullpoop* first the fruit trees and now they trynna torture these children just cause??
The fruit trees aren’t important to the villagers. It’s not for human consumption and they did pay. Plus they are improving their qualifications and since they are asleep they won’t feel pain so it’s not torturous. It’s a win win situation.
Yep idk why the op said that. They specifically asked to buy the trees so nothing was stolen and taking excess spiritual roots could only ever help lol.
