Chapter 4540: 5.0292 Who Are You Tricking?
Mo Lian gazed at her, feeling wronged. Wifey, why did you cover my mouth?
He was just chatting with Big Brother!
Qiao Mu quickly tugged at his sleeve, clearing her throat. "Um, Big Brother, I'm, I'm fine. It's just that I came back too late yesterday, so I, I really wanted to... get some good rest."
The more she spoke, the more guilty she felt, and Qiao Mu's voice trailed off.
"Oh, it's fine. Qiao Qiao, if you feel tired, take this time to rest well on the desolate island," Mu Xingchen said with a smile. "Anyway, we're going to be staying for a while."
"Mm." Qiao Mu nodded slightly, hearing Hao Guang's joyful shouts from nearby:
"Second Generation Sect Master, Second Generation Sect Master, come quickly and try my roasted meat, my craftsmanship is pretty good."
"Let's go," Mu Xingchen said with a smile, nodding slightly in that direction.
The three walked over and sat around the bonfire.
That guy had specifically shoveled all the snow in a circle around them, so now everyone looked somewhat comical, like they were sitting in a snow pit eating barbecue.
"Eating something so greasy first thing in the morning, won't it cause indigestion later?" The little stoic said, while already taking a piece of roasted meat from Old Man Hao Guang and biting into it.
Everyone: ...
Your words are always so contradictory to your actions; it's a bit funny.
"How is the cultivation going in the cave?"
"I checked yesterday, everyone's made a little progress recently," Young Master Rong said with a smile. "Although it's extremely cold here with all the ice and snow, it's indeed very helpful for strengthening the body and cultivating spiritual power."
Qiao Mu nodded. "This isn't the coldest place yet."
"I checked before, the further west you go on this island, the colder it gets," Qiao Mu said, raising the roasted meat in her hand. "I'll go check it out again later."
"If that's truly the case, I might be able to set up a Spirit Guiding Talisman Array to turn that area into a natural spiritual ground."
"I just don't know if the place is big enough."
"This place borders the Snow Ridge," Old Man Hao Guang grumbled. "Maybe we can explore deeper; who knows, we might find an even better spiritual acupoint."
"I see you've come all this way. If you can't find a particularly good place, wouldn't it be a wasted trip?"
Qiao Mu thought, what the old man said actually makes sense.
If she could find a more pure spiritual ground, or even a divine realm, for everyone, and then enhance it with a talisman array, their cultivation speed could then advance a thousand miles a day.
"Alright then, after breakfast, let's all go look for one."
"By the way, didn't Senior Hao Guang say before that he had as many spiritual artifacts as we wanted?"
"What do you want, Second Generation Sect Master?" Hao Guang's small eyes watched his Second Generation Sect Master warily.
He always had a bad feeling that this trickster's next words wouldn't be good.
"I noticed that some of the soldiers in the military camp don't even have a handy spiritual artifact."
Hao Guang immediately had a bad premonition.
"You've been living on this desolate island for so many years. Normally, you could only mine here and there on the island, and then refine artifacts, right?"
"Who, who said that? I, I was quite idle."
"If you have a lot of stock, then take some out."
The old man stroked his beard and glared. "Didn't you take anything out of Old Ghost Tianjizi's secret realm?"
Qiao Mu looked utterly sincere, shaking her head. "We were all spit out by Senior Tianjizi's secret realm later."
