After Yang Mu returned to his own house, it didn’t take long before Li Yuer paid a visit.
Upon seeing the lush and colorful display of flowers outside Yang Mu’s house, Li Yuer’s expression momentarily froze. She probably didn’t expect that the stern Elder Yang was actually a lover of elegant plants and flowers.
Although among those flowers, there seemed to be a few vegetable plants mixed in.
“Elder Yang,” Li Yuer smiled and greeted Yang Mu as she entered.
Yang Mu nodded slightly and gestured to a chair inside the house, indicating for Li Yuer to sit.
Once Li Yuer had taken a seat, she got straight to the point and asked Yang Mu, “Elder Yang, I wonder if your sect will participate in the Inter-sect competition this year?”
Yang Mu was only partially informed about this sect competition, and Sect Master was still in seclusion, so he hadn’t had a chance to consult with other elders. That’s why Li Yuer had come to visit.
“Everything will depend on our Sect Master’s decision when he comes out,” Yang Mu replied, deflecting the question to Yushi An, who was still in seclusion.
Hearing that Yang Mu couldn’t make the decision, a hint of disappointment flashed in Li Yuer’s eyes. She said to Yang Mu, “This opportunity is rare, and I hope your sect values it. Also, the rewards for this sect competition are quite substantial.”
Yang Mu was curious and asked, “What are the rewards?”
When the rewards were mentioned, a self-satisfied smile appeared on Li Yuer’s face. “The rewards are the powerful beastmen that our Yuling Sect has captured over the years, and they are all exceptionally strong.”
‘Exceptionally strong’ implied that the assistance of the beast clans’ essences provided would be significant.
In previous sect competitions, rewards were usually in the form of pills, weapons, and such. But this time, they were offering beastmen as rewards, which was indeed a hefty investment.

Since Yang Mu couldn’t make a decision about the sect competition, after bringing up the matter, Li Yuer took her leave.
After seeing Li Yuer off, Yang Mu returned to his own room, closed the door, and widened his eyes, sitting on his bed.
Upon hearing about the sect competition’s reward being beastmen, Yang Mu wasn’t just unmoved; he even felt a hint of dread.
The sect competition’s reward was actually beastmen? Could this be a mistake? If the Yuan Sect participated and Shi Dixuan saw the beastmen that the Yuling Sect was offering, wouldn’t that be a disaster?
Shi Dixuan might not act on the spot, but the Yuan Sect would likely end up on his blacklist.
For someone like Shi Dixuan, who never forgave and forgot, once he remembered, it meant endless trouble.
—
After leaving Yang Mu’s room, Li Yuer went in search of Shi Dixuan.
Ever since Yang Mu had taught Li Yue a lesson the last time, no disciples from the sect had come to bother Shi Dixuan.
As for these people causing trouble, Shi Dixuan couldn’t care less. Those with weaker strength were good for practice, while those stronger would serve as challenges. After all, in the end, he would have to eliminate them all, right?
He also knew that Yang Mu had stood up for him after the incident with Li Yue. While he hadn’t mentioned it to Yang Mu, he did appreciate the sentiment. However, in Shi Dixuan’s mind, Yang Mu’s kindness to him was likely because he was a human and Yang Mu’s disciple.
If Yang Mu were to discover that he was actually a member of the beast clan, his attitude would probably change drastically, wouldn’t it?
Shi Dixuan shook his head, letting out a light chuckle.
Though his spiritual awakening hadn’t been long, Shi Dixuan had witnessed many humans’ unflattering appearances when encountering beastmen. Moreover, he had seen Yang Mu’s reaction when he encountered a beastman.
Thinking back to that day when he had inexplicably gone into heat and Yang Mu’s reaction when he spread his legs, Shi Dixuan squinted his eyes slightly. Not to mention, the human had dared to mock his size.
“Shi Dixuan!” Suddenly, a clear shout came from afar, interrupting Shi Dixuan’s thoughts. He turned his head slightly and saw a woman running toward him in a hurry.
This woman was Li Yuer.
If Shi Dixuan were an ordinary human, then in his eyes, Li Yuer would look like this.
As she ran, her disheveled hair was tousled by the breeze, revealing a smooth and full forehead. Tiny beads of sweat glistened on her upturned nose, and her rosy lips were slightly parted. Li Yuer’s white attire fluttered in the wind, making her appearance captivating.
Unfortunately, Shi Dixuan was a member of the beast clans and completely ignorant of human allure.
When he saw Li Yuer sprinting towards him, his initial reaction was to furrowed his brow. Then, as if he hadn’t noticed her, he continued walking in a different direction.
Seeing that Shi Dixuan was ignoring her, Li Yuer quickened her pace. Despite her respect for the Yuan Sect, she didn’t use flying techniques within the sect.
Now, she lightly tapped the ground with her foot, and with a graceful leap, she landed in front of Shi Dixuan.
Breathing slightly heavily, she asked, “I called you, why are you ignoring me?”
Shi Dixuan was forced to stop by Li Yuer’s persistence. He looked at her coldly and asked, “What do you want?”
Li Yuer replied, “I’ve already tried to find Elder Yang.”
“Oh?”
“But he can’t make a decision about the sect competition either.” Li Yuer’s shoulders slumped slightly, appearing quite helpless.
Shi Dixuan had little interest in the sect competition to begin with. Upon hearing Li Yuer’s words, he remained expressionless. “If there’s nothing else, I need to return to my room for training,” he said, preparing to leave.
Li Yuer quickly stopped him. “Your sect must participate in this sect competition. The reward they offer this time is beastmen. Because of the competition, I’ll be leaving your sect soon. If your sect participates, you can leave with me.”
Pouting slightly, Li Yuer spoke softly in the latter part of her statement. After saying these words, she discreetly glanced at Shi Dixuan’s facial expression.
Shi Dixuan’s face immediately darkened upon hearing that the reward was beastmen. He silently contemplated those words. Concealing his emotions, he looked at Li Yuer and lightly curled his lips. “If possible, I will definitely participate. About the reward of the beastmen, what rank gets it?”
Li Yuer’s eyes lit up at once upon hearing that Shi Dixuan was considering participation. She blinked, gazing at him, and said, “First place.”
First place, huh?
Shi Dixuan lowered his head slightly.
I knew it!! It was Shi Dixuan!! My sixth sense was right!
Also I really do hope that they stop this wonton abuse and disregard for beastmen, it’s disgusting and sickening that they gloat over using them as elixirs.
Thank You for the new chapter ♡╰(⸝⸝⸝´꒳`⸝⸝⸝)╯♡
Li Yuer is a terrible wingman for saving the human world.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR BEING AWESOME!!!
