Chapter 11: Dowry However, the system's words broke her...
However, the system's words shattered her fantasy.
[Host, I've found it. The Fortune Pill can indeed transform the Five Spiritual Roots into the Five Chaos Spiritual Roots. However, the host's physique is too weak. One pill is not enough. Countless precious medicinal plants are needed. There are many kinds of medicinal plants in this pool that can improve aptitude alone. The rest are also Yin-Yang treasures such as the Black Mysterious Pearl and the Yin-Yang Wood!]
Xu Hui's heart suddenly turned cold, and she understood that this time she owed someone a huge favor, and she couldn't even repay it even if she sold herself!
This is really a dilemma. As the saying goes, if you want to get something, you must give it first. What exactly does Wei Mubai want to do? He is trying so hard and regardless of the cost to help her improve her qualifications. He must have some ulterior motive!
With just these medicinal herbs, it is more than enough to cultivate more than a dozen cultivators above the Nascent Soul stage. How could she be so capable as to waste so many good herbs?
Now even selling myself can’t repay this huge favor!
She couldn't help but wonder in her mind, what was Wei Mubai's purpose?
Could it be that he wanted to take over her body, so he spared no effort to improve her qualifications, because sooner or later she would be his anyway!
Thinking this way, she actually felt it made sense, and asked the system, "If I were to be possessed, could you take me with you to reincarnate again?"
Anyway, I won't be using this body for long, so I can't say I'm reluctant to give it up. It doesn't matter if I change it. It's just that all the suffering I've endured during this period has been in vain.
Especially now, all kinds of strange and uncomfortable feelings occur one after another, like torture.
After finally getting through it, I ended up making things difficult for others. How heartbreaking!
The system issued a sharp alarm, [Warning! Warning! Host, do not be complacent. The system no longer has the energy to bring the host back to life. Host, please face reality!]
Xu Hui: ...
She knows the reality very well!
She was just a useless person who couldn't even lift a finger. Even if she improved her qualifications, she was still no match for Wei Mubai.
The other party wanted her body, and she didn't even have a chance to resist. She might as well lie down obediently and treat it as a limited-time tour in the world of cultivation. She went back to the underworld to be reincarnated. Eighteen years later, she was once again a...poor college entrance examination candidate.
Hey, Xu Hui’s resentment at this moment was almost condensed into substance, so much that it could feed ten evil sword immortals.
She even thought about fainting and interrupting this transformation.
But Wei Mubai didn't give her this opportunity. No one knew how he did it, but he not only imprisoned her soul, but also controlled the system, making it unable to do anything to Xu Hui.
It's just... outrageous!
"You are a high-tech product. Not only did you fail to detect Wei Mubai before, but you also exposed us. Now we are under your control. Don't you think you are losing your integrity?"
It's also her fault. She naively thought that high technology must be more advanced than cultivation. Wei Mubai is only in the Jindan stage. No matter how useless the system is, it should have no problem dealing with a Jindan stage cultivator, right?
After all, it is known as a formal upgrade system!
As a result, he was not only discovered by Boss Wei, but also directly controlled.
The system was frustrated and couldn't even raise its head. [I, I don't know what's going on.]
Xu Hui wanted to roll her eyes, but she couldn't, and could only emit a strong sense of resentment.
I don’t know if Wei Mubai sensed it, but he actually walked over and poured half of the medicinal liquid into the pool.
"Wow, what a big deal!" Xu Hui was bored, so she asked the system to report everything to her so that she could broaden her horizons. After all, she had traveled through time and space, and was going to die without doing anything, so she had to experience it to the fullest.
The system seemed to have given up on itself, and said self-deprecatingly, "At least this system knows. Never go to the world of immortal cultivation to do missions. The series of systems being unable to defeat humans has entered a new chapter."
"So this isn't the first time you've failed," Xu Hui sneered. "I thought it was my useless physique that affected you. It seems we're both equally matched, no one is better than the other."
She was unlucky, the system was out of tune, and sure enough...it was a perfect match!
"If I had known, you wouldn't have bumped into me."
[If I had known earlier, I would have avoided bumping into you. ]
Everyone expressed the same sentiment, and it must be said that they had developed a certain tacit understanding.
Just like that, as everyone was blindly waiting to die, the medicinal bath finally ended.
When she finally regained control of her body, she felt as if she were in another world. All memories before that had become distant, leaving only the torment of the past few days, so profound that the mere thought of it made her body tremble, her soul lingering forever. She lay there, dazed, her eyes glassy. Was it over? Could she die now?
There was actually a sense of relief!
No wonder criminals in ancient times would rather commit suicide than suffer torture. I wonder which one is more comfortable, what she just experienced or lingchi?
Just as I was thinking this, a storage bracelet was thrown to me, "The things inside are prepared for you, pack them up and come here."
Xu Hui: ...
Ma Mu sat up and probed his spiritual sense into the bracelet. Wow, it was more than 10,000 square meters. What a huge deal!
The things inside are not stingy, no, they are frighteningly precious.
There are 100,000 high-grade spirit stones alone, and countless mid-grade and low-grade ones, as well as countless elixirs, elixirs, and magic weapons.
On the other side were robes, the white ones, ranging from the Qi Refining Stage to the Golden Core Stage, with a variety of styles.
Xu Hui took out a piece and replaced it while casually joking, "Is he proposing?"
Since she's going to die anyway, shouldn't she be allowed to say a few words?
[Yes, in the book, the betrothal gift given to the heroine Zhong Xinyue was not this much. The only thing missing was a spiritual field space.]
Everyone was so desperate and kept mocking.
"It seems that Wei Mubai really can't get married, so the Wei family prepared so many betrothal gifts for him. Unfortunately, I would rather die than marry him."
[Host, you should have some self-awareness.] The system was silent for a while before speaking.
Xu Hui choked, "Forget it, forget it, you idiot, can't you hear that I'm furious and incompetent?"
【Even when you are angry, you must face reality.】
......
Very good, system, you know how to mock people!
Xu Hui was listless. She put on her robes and casually grabbed a handful of her wet hair. She didn't even comb it, letting the water drip onto her robes and flow down the folds of her clothes.
Or what about the Dharma robe? It is waterproof, fireproof, and can also protect against weapon attacks.
It is also beautiful and graceful, incredibly pretty. If she had owned one a few days ago, she would have been so happy that she would have done three physics tests.
Now...haha, she has lost her worldly desires.
Pushing open the door of the hot spring pool and walking straight out, Wei Mubai was still refining the elixir, concentrating on it without any distractions.
An evil thought arose in Xu Hui's mind. If I disturbed him at this moment, would he go crazy?
If not, it would be better to blow up a furnace, so that he wouldn't think he was such a genius. Pah, he is a snake in the mouth of a Buddha, has ulterior motives, is sweet-mouthed but has a sharp tongue, has bad intentions, is a beast in human form...
At this moment, the significance of education was highlighted. Xu Hui actually used a total of 52 idioms to scold this guy. Her words were reasonable, polite and decent, and were not fabricated at all. Anyone would say that the college entrance examination is indeed the pinnacle of knowledge in life.
Just when she was bored and saying hurtful things in her heart, Wei Mubai's elixir was finally ready.
This time she took the lesson to heart, kept her mouth shut tightly, and refused to eat anything that was thrown at her.
However, Wei Mubai just collected the secret technique and introduced the pill into the bottle. The jade bottle flew in front of her and said, "One pill a day to stabilize your realm."
"What realm?" As soon as he finished speaking, he felt the abundant spiritual power in his body. Could this be a direct breakthrough to the Qi Refining Stage?
[Host, you have reached the third level of Qi training, but you are just making things easier for others,] the system said quietly.
"Oh," Xu Hui replied softly, "So where's your mission? Where's my reward? Did you eat it?"
The task has been completed, and the benefits cannot be rejected, but they must not be given to outsiders.
She will throw away all the rewards later, including the top-grade spiritual-replenishing elixir and the top-grade rejuvenation elixir. They will all be turned into powder. She can't use them, and that bastard Wei Mubai can't get them, and there's also that bastard who wants to occupy her body!
Seeing that she didn't answer, Wei Mubai turned his head slightly and said in a deep voice, "Your hair is messy, it's impolite, go and clean it up."
Xu Hui didn't move.
Wei Mubai frowned at her, and after a while, seeing that she still looked half dead, he pursed his lips and explained, "I'm going to see my father later, and you're so confused, it's very rude."
Xu Hui didn’t understand. She wanted to get angry. You want my body, but I have to fix it for you first. What’s wrong?
She simply ignored it and pretended she couldn't hear it.
Wei Mubai glanced at the alchemy furnace that was being warmed up again, and withdrew his hand, retracting the white flame. The alchemy furnace fell to the ground and hit the ground with a muffled sound.
He walked up to Xu Hui, pinched his fingers lightly, and the moisture on his hair evaporated instantly. His spiritual sense probed into the storage bracelet in Xu Hui's hand that had not recognized its owner, and took out a hairband from it.
The headband was also a magical weapon. It flew onto Xu Hui's head and automatically bound a beautiful hairstyle.
Seeing that she finally looked like a normal person, Wei Mubai grabbed her collar, summoned her flying sword, and planned to fly on it.
Teleportation is not allowed in the Jindan stage, so you won’t waste a life-saving thing like the teleportation talisman when traveling. The sword-riding speed is also fast enough for daily travel.
But this time Xu Hui couldn't stand it anymore. "You keep lifting me. Are you a germaphobe? Don't you know that a girl's collar is also a private part? Let me go, you bastard!"
Wei Mubai paused, looking at her in confusion, not understanding why she was so angry. Seeing that she was really mad, he thought for a moment, reached out and grabbed her arm, still through the robe.
Xu Hui:......
He mentally read over the fifty-two idioms again, finally calming down and saying coldly, "Where are you taking me?"
You always have to know where your grave is, right?
"Father's cave," Wei Mubai said gently.
Oh, Patriarch Wei, the cave of a powerful cultivator in the Spirit Severing Stage, what a great place!
So who was it that wanted to possess her body? This guy's...father? Not really, was it his mother?
Otherwise, it would be difficult for outsiders to easily enter the cave of a cultivator in the Spirit Severing Stage. Only those with whom he has a close relationship would be allowed to enter.
She was thinking wildly in her mind, and the system heard it and made a reasonable guess: [Wei Mubai has a younger sister.]
Oh, yes, there is such a person, but isn't her talent very good? Not inferior to Wei Mubai, so why does she need to take over the body of such a useless person?
I couldn't figure it out, so I just asked directly, trying to be clear-headed, "What are you going there for?"
"Ask my father for the spiritual field space and let him recognize you as his master," Wei Mubai answered without hesitation.
......
Xu Hui and the system's silence is deafening!
After a while, Xu Hui was surprised and asked, "Isn't that your family's betrothal gift? What are you giving it to me?"
Before contributing your body, you also need to help recognize the master of a spiritual field space?
What kind of operation is this? Can’t you recognize it after taking over the body?
She was only shocked and accidentally revealed her familiarity with the spiritual field space. Perhaps even if she knew that she had exposed a flaw, she really had nothing to hide when she was about to die.
Therefore, she acted indifferent to Wei Mubai's meaningful look and just wanted to curse.
Alas, it’s all because the country’s quality education is too successful. Even in this situation, she can only curse in her heart but can’t say it out loud. This is the biggest regret before her death!
