"Fine, if you don't come back this time, you'll have to say something to me." Mu Qingyun raised her head arrogantly, because Su Qiluo wasn't in front of her, so it didn't matter what expression she made.
"Okay." Su Qiluo smiled indulgently. "By the way, I'll have someone send you the peach tree seeds you wanted."
Peach tree seeds?
Upon hearing this, Mu Qingyun opened her mouth in sudden realization. Right, she had asked Su Qiluo for peach tree seeds, wanting to give him a surprise and also tell him that she also had dual superpowers.
"Okay," she replied with a slight smile.
"I'll go check the seeds first, and I'll call you later." Su Qiluo said, then sighed softly, "It's a pity you can't get your phone right now, otherwise we could have a video call tonight."
"I don't want a video call, I want to see you in person." Mu Qingyun tilted her head and stared at the communicator flashing green light. "Let's stop talking for now. You go do your thing, I'm going back to rest."
"Okay, get some rest."
After Su Qiluo finished speaking, he paused for a moment, and then a soft "pop" sound came from the other end of the communicator.
After kissing the communicator, Su Qiluo couldn't help but let out a smile.
When Mu Qingyun suddenly heard this voice, she was completely stunned. By the time she realized what was happening and tried to say something, the communicator had been disconnected.
Even though there was no actual kiss, her heart was pounding so hard she couldn't stop it.
Is this called "Communicator Kiss"?
She wondered what Su Qiluo must have been like just now, and as she thought about it, a blush crept onto her cheeks.
Oh dear, it's a pity Su Qiluo isn't in front of her right now, otherwise, she would definitely kiss him to death!
If Su Qiluo were in her harem, she would definitely act as a "beauty-obsessed" foolish ruler for a few days, indulging in revelry in his palace every day, and becoming a monarch who "never held court in the morning."
Ah, no, the more she thinks about it, the more tempted she becomes. Could she bring Su Qiluo back to her harem?
There was no hellfire or mind-bending in her world; she could kiss whenever she wanted and make love with Su Qiluo every night.
She touched the communicator again, sighed with regret, and got up to walk towards the door.
As Su Qiluo had instructed, she changed the door lock code and then went to her room to rest.
A peaceful night's sleep.
Having spent some time in the second level, her biological clock had been adjusted to sleep during the day and be active at night.
That night, she kept her eyes tightly shut, lying in bed even if she couldn't sleep. During the day, she forced herself to stay awake and sat up straight to cultivate her supernatural abilities.
After a few days, she successfully got her biological clock back on track.
She stayed in the house for a few more days, spending almost all her free time cultivating.
Strangely, while her superpowers progressed at the same pace as usual, her mental strength suddenly stagnated. No matter how she cultivated, she remained at a bottleneck and could not make any progress.
One morning, someone Su Qiluo asked knocked on her door and gave her some peach tree seeds.
She fiddled with the peach tree seeds, thought for a moment, and finally put them away.
With her current plant-based superpower, if she were to expend all her energy, she could barely make the peach tree bloom directly.
If Su Qiluo had been given a surprise back in the third stage, she could have either started planting now and nurtured it with energy every day, or she could have frantically cultivated her plant abilities and then directly activated the peach tree to bloom on that day.
Since we can't get out now, it seems we can only choose the second option.
"Notification, notification..."
Just as I was thinking this, the monitor on the door suddenly started beeping.
She turned her head and saw the monitor flash a few times. Suddenly, two red "Congratulations" words with glitter appeared on it.
"Congratulations to the contestants for successfully passing the second stage. Please stay here for three days. After three days, the mental strength test will begin."
Those who pass the mental test can join the military academy; those who fail, we can only say goodbye for now.
In the final three days, I urge all participants who haven't yet met the standard to work hard and strive for improvement, and I also ask all participants who have already met the standard to wait patiently.
After saying these words, the monitor beeped once, then returned to silence.
Three days?
Mu Qingyun lowered her eyes. She had achieved her goal, but she didn't know how Diewu and Xiong Ruoyou were doing, or whether they had made it through the passage.
She wasn't worried about Kazel and Fan Xuanye at all, but she was really worried about these two young girls.
...
Three days passed in the blink of an eye. Mu Qingyun counted the days and walked to the door of her room on the last day.
At the top of the screen were two small words: "Congratulations." Below that, it read: "Please wait a moment, contestants. The third round will begin promptly at 2 PM."
After a few more moments, she glanced at the screen a few times, then turned and walked towards the sofa.
She had made several calls to Su Qiluo via communicator in the past few days. Although each call ended after only a few words, she still managed to get some information.
For example, in the third stage, and at the ceremony for entering the military academy, the Emperor of the Empire will come. Also, the seeds that the doctor is researching have some problems and cannot survive in the desert.
"Knock knock knock—"
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
Who would be knocking on her door at this hour?
She raised an eyebrow in confusion, stepped forward, and opened the door. As soon as she opened the door, her eyes widened in disbelief.
Behind the door, Su Qiluo, dressed in a formal suit, looked incredibly dazzling.
The suit and trousers made his already slender figure appear even more proportionate and perfect. He had an almost devilishly handsome appearance, and the formal attire only added to his solemnity and lessened his sinister charm.
So handsome!
Mu Qingyun looked him up and down, like a wolf eyeing its prey, eager to drag it into its den and enjoy it slowly.
Su Qiluo had been looked at like that before, but he wasn't angry when Mu Qingyun looked at him like that; on the contrary, he was quite glad.
Fortunately, he was good-looking, and he was very satisfied with Mu Qingyun's current reaction.
"If I didn't have important business to attend to later, I would definitely lock you in my bed." Looking at Su Qiluo, who now had a more upright demeanor, Mu Qingyun unconsciously licked her lips, her eyes shining.
"..."
Isn't this the opposite?
Su Qiluo raised an eyebrow. With his appearance, his height of over 1.9 meters, his eight-pack abs, and his gender, shouldn't he be the one saying these words?
"Wife, don't speak too soon. If there's ever a chance to lock me in bed, you'll be the one who can't get out."
A smile played at the corners of his lips as he looked at her, his eyes darkening slightly, and his prominent Adam's apple bobbed as he swallowed softly.
His expression combined with those words was incredibly lewd.
Upon hearing this, Mu Qingyun remained noncommittal.
Have you ever heard the saying?
"What?" Su Qiluo chuckled with interest, tilting his head and leaning against the door frame, quietly waiting for her to continue.
Mu Qingyun quickly reached out and wrapped her arms around his neck, tilting her head to rest her head on his neck, her warm breath brushing against his ear.
"Only oxen die from exhaustion."
