The street vendors were selling New Year goods, and everyone's faces were filled with smiles.

Mu Nanjin did not return to the Mu Mansion, but went to the house bought by Heitan and asked Yang Bo and the others, "The New Year is coming soon, who wants to go home for the New Year?"

Liu Qian immediately stood up and said, "I want to go home for the New Year. My father has urged me several times, saying that my mother has been looking forward to my return."

Mu Nanjin nodded: "Who else wants to go back?"

Sang Tai sighed and said, "I want to go home too, but it will be New Year's Eve in two days, so I definitely won't be able to make it back in time."

Mu Nanjin said: "Ask Heitan to take you back."

Sang Tai's eyes lit up. He had seen Heitan's speed and knew he could definitely get back home within half a day.

Heitan did not object.

Yang Bo and Xu Cheng said: "We have no family, so we will stay here for the New Year."

Shu Xiyao asked Mu Nanjin: "Will you let me go home for the New Year?"

Mu Nanjin: “Yes.”

Shu Xiyao raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Forget it, I can't make it back."

"I'll ask Wu Yuan to take you back."

Wu Yuan: “…”

Mu Nanjin saw Wu Yuan remained silent: "Is there a problem?"

Wu Yuan said: "As long as he is not frightened to death, there will be no problem."

Shu Xiyao sneered: "Do I look like such a coward?"

Wu Yuan did not refute him.

Jia Yin stood up and said, "I want to go back to celebrate the New Year, too."

"Who are you going to spend the New Year with? Your sister? Is she in seclusion? Your other fellow disciples are all out, and your master is playing chess with an old friend. He won't be back for at least a year or so."

Jia Yin's eyes widened: "How do you know so clearly?"

If he was not sure that Mu Nanjin had been staying here all the time, he would have suspected that Mu Nanjin had been monitoring him before.

Mu Nanjin replied calmly: "What I know best is that you don't celebrate the New Year at all."

The 'you' she was referring to were cultivators. Cultivators practice for a long time, sometimes going into seclusion for several years or even hundreds of years, so how could they possibly celebrate the New Year?

Jia Yin: “…”

Wu Yuan, Lu Feishen: "..."

Mu Nanjin thought for a moment and said, "The New Year is coming soon, but apart from having a lot of money, I don't have any gifts that you would like..."

Jia Yin sneered: "How much silver do you have?"

Heitan raised his chin proudly: "She has more silver than the national treasury."

Jia Yin: “…”

Mu Nanjin continued, "So I decided to let you take a hot bath as my New Year's gift to you. As for how much you can absorb, it depends on your ability and luck."

Except for Wu Yuan, Lu Feishen, Jia Yin and Heitan, no one else present understood what she meant.

Mu Nanjin ordered the servants to move all the bathtubs from each room out to the yard, then fill the tubs with water, and then told the servants to leave the yard and not come in.

After the servants left, she set up a formation outside the nine bathtubs.

The moment the formation was formed, the freezing cold water actually boiled.

Yang Bo, Xu Cheng, Sang Tai, Shu Xiyao and Liu Qian all looked shocked.

Mu Nanjin threw three pills of different colors into each of the five barrels. Wu Yuan and the others immediately felt a faint spiritual energy floating out of them.

She read out, "Yang Bo, Xu Cheng, Sang Tai, Shu Xiyao, Liu Qian, take off your clothes first and go in."

"Just take off your shirt."

"That's not a good idea, at least it's not good for your reputation."

Mu Nanjin wanted to roll his eyes: "If you don't tell me, no one will know."

Shu Xiyao: “…”

Yang Bo and Xu Cheng were the most obedient and jumped into the water immediately.

Mu Nanjin said: "If the pain is unbearable, come out."

"yes."

Liu Qian, Sang Tai and Shu Xiyao also took off their clothes and got into the barrel.

At first they just felt it was very hot, extremely hot. An ordinary person would definitely be scalded.

Fortunately, they were all warriors who could use their internal strength to resist, but they could only resist for a moment before they felt the heat spreading to their bodies again, penetrating through the skin pores into the body, spreading through the muscles and bones, and some blocked acupuncture points were immediately opened up by the heat.

Immediately afterwards, the heat traveled through their veins for several times and then spread to their internal organs. Suddenly, their whole bodies felt comfortable, and even their hearts beat stronger than usual.

Liu Qian’s cultivation was relatively low, and he couldn’t hold on for less than two hours.

He quickly jumped out, and then saw Heitan, Wu Yuan, Lu Feichen and Jia Yin also sitting in the water bucket. He felt that their water was much darker than theirs, and he could also sense a scent in the water that he couldn't explain. In short, it made people feel very comfortable.

Afterwards, Liu Qian discovered that his cultivation had improved, and not just by two levels. He felt that he was about to break through to level eight.

Liu Qian was very excited: "Girl, I made a breakthrough."

Mu Nanjin glanced at him and said, "You'd better go change your clothes."

Liu Qian then noticed that he was shirtless and rushed back to his room embarrassedly to change his clothes before coming out again.

Then Yang Bo and Xu Cheng also came out, both of them also had excited expressions on their faces because they were promoted from eighth-grade warriors to masters.

This was something they had never dreamed of. In just a few short months, they were promoted several levels. Moreover, it was not easy to become a Grandmaster. But a miracle happened.

"Thank you girl, thank you girl."

The two men kept bowing to Mu Nanjin.

Mu Nanjin said calmly: "Go change your clothes."

"Yes, yes, haha."

When they came back after changing their clothes, Sangtai also came out.

He was promoted from a third-rank grandmaster to a fifth-rank grandmaster, while Shu Xiyao was promoted from a first-rank martial king to a fifth-rank martial king.

The latter was very shocked. Let's not talk about why Mu Nanjin had the ability to quickly improve everyone's grades. Isn't Mu Nanjin too tolerant? Knowing that he was very unfriendly to her, she still helped him improve his cultivation. Wasn't she afraid that he would kill her after improving his cultivation? Or even if he improved his cultivation, Mu Nanjin would still not take him seriously? He thought the latter was more likely.

Sangtai was relatively calm, because the fact that Heitan was a demon was even more unbelievable than what was happening before his eyes. And the person who could make a horse demon obey him was definitely not an ordinary person.

"Master Mu, I want to test how much weaker my fighting power is than yours."

After saying this, Shu Xiyao attacked Mu Nanjin with all his strength.

Mu Nanjin lazily raised her fingers to block his fist, and the wind from his fist flew past her on both sides.

Shu Xiyao was stunned for a moment, and even tried harder, but he still couldn't push the opponent back a single step. What was even worse was that the opponent's expression, attitude, and posture were as relaxed as if he was resisting a piece of white paper, which made him very frustrated.

Sang Tai hugged Shu Xiyao's neck and said, "Master, just give up. You will never be able to defeat her."

Shu Xiyao asked hurriedly: "Do you know some inside information?"

"I won't tell you."

Shu Xiyao: "..." (End of this chapter)
