“Are you kidding? How could you be as formidable as my master?”
Hearing this, Su Jin’er retorted angrily again.
“…” Yan Zhantian’s eyes twitched slightly and he said helplessly, “1 say, as a young lady, can’t you keep your voice down a bit?”
“No!” Su Jin’er said in a very displeased manner, “Mo Xiao, don’t let him deceive you! The strengths of the three War Gods are relatively equal, they just excel in different domains!”
Listening to their conversation, Mo Xiao was silent for a moment before saying, “Senior Yan, 1 don’t have the intention of becoming a disciple yet. How about this? There’s still one and a half months before the college entrance examinations begin.
“We’ll talk about who to acknowledge as master after the college entrance examination. How about that?” Mo Xiao said seriously.
Hearing this, Yan Zhantian raised his eyebrows slightly. “It seems like you’re trying to negotiate for a better deal.”
“Well, since there are people competing, naturally, you have to compare the goods from multiple sources. If you can also get the other War God on board, that would be even better.” Mo Xiao grinned.
Yan Zhantian was momentarily stunned by Mo Xiao’s words and then burst into laughter, “You’re quite the shrewd one! But the Sword God won’t come back.”
“Why?” Mo Xiao was completely unaware of the human forces in this world and had no idea about the circumstances of the three War Gods.
“He used a special skill to seal himself along with the Demon King in a unique space. Only when one of them dies can the other come out, or the Sword God actively lifts this skill. So, for a short time, we won’t be seeing him,” Yan Zhantian explained truthfully. Clearly, this wasn’t much of a secret for them.
“Oh…” Mo Xiao nodded thoughtfully and then asked with some confusion, “But… now that one of the three War Gods is missing, how can you still be relaxing here?”
“Well, don’t we have the Divine Mage holding the fort? If anything goes wrong, she’ll notify me immediately. Besides, the three War Gods refer to the War Gods of our Dragon Country. Other countries are watching as well, so there shouldn’t be a big problem,” Yan Zhantian said calmly.
“Furthermore! If one War God is missing, the Demon King is also missing! The pressure has lessened; it’s not a big issue!”
With that, Yan Zhantian plopped himself down on the only chair in Mo Xiao’s house, “Since you’re not interested in becoming my apprentice for now, let’s forget about it. Decide after the college entrance exams.”
“Okay…”
“As your senior, I’ll give you a gift.” Yan Zhantian extended his right hand, and a blue skill book fell directly into Mo Xiao’s hand.
“What’s this?”
[You have obtained a blue skill book, Spirit Gathering Technique.]
[Spirit Gathering Technique: When you enter a cultivation state in non-combat states, you can obtain 10 experience points per minute.]
“!!!”
Seeing this skill, Mo Xiao widened his eyes in an instant. A skill that grants experience points without having to fight monsters?!
He did not expect such a skill to exist in this world!
“Although you only get 10 experience points per minute, after accumulating it for a certain period of time, it will be a huge number.” Yan Zhantian smiled and said, “Work hard! I hope you can become the fourth War God of our Dragon Country!”
With that, Yan Zhantian patted Mo Xiao’s shoulder heavily and then transformed into a burst of flames and disappeared.
[You’ve received a hearty pat from Yan Zhantian. The innate fire elemental transformation has been replicated!]
“What the hell?!” Hearing this information, Mo Xiao was stunned and quickly checked this new talent.
[Fire Elemental Transformation: The exclusive talent of the Fire Controller. After using it, your body can completely turn into flames! This state ignores all physical attacks! Duration: 30 seconds. CD: 5 minutes.]
Just as Mo Xiao was excited about this fire elemental transformation, Su Jin’er also felt a little uneasy and hurriedly asked, “Hey, hey, hey, don’t tell me you’ve been bribed by his Spirit Gathering Technique!
“Although this skill book isn’t easy to come by, there are still many of them!”
Su Jiner said quickly, “Since this is a gift for meeting you, how about 1 give myself to you?”
“Repeating the same joke too many times makes it less funny…” Hearing Su Jiner’s words, Mo Xiao couldn’t help but roll his eyes and press his temples. Su Jiner looked flirtatious, “I’m not joking, you know-”
“Enough!” Mo Xiao hastily interrupted Su Jiner, fearing she might take the teasing too far, “You’ve already helped me a lot. 1 don’t need any more gifts.” “Then you should become my junior brother, right?” Su Jin’er asked excitedly. After a moment of silence, Mo Xiao smiled and said, “That depends on who gives more benefits when the time comes.”
“You brat!” Su Jin’er scolded with a smile. Then, she said, “Alright, let’s stop fooling around. After letting Jiang He and the others cause such a ruckus, we almost forgot about the serious matter.”
Hearing Su Jin’er mention this, Mo Xiao finally reacted.
That’s right.
The monster horde project is about to begin. We need to inform Lord Fang Chang quickly.
“Will Senior Yan intervene?” Mo Xiao suddenly asked.
Su Jin’er shook her head and said, “No, I can’t either.”
“Why?” Mo Xiao asked in confusion.
“The siege battle is waged according to the laws of heaven. It’s not just a regular siege; it involves considering a certain balance in combat. I might not even be able to intervene,” Su Jiner explained seriously.
“If the Fire God intervenes, the monsters will send a Demon King of equivalent strength. Once the Demon King appears, it can summon countless level 70 or 80 monsters to attack the city. With the power of Yicheng Base City, we won’t be able to withstand that.
“If I intervene, there might also be someone at my level and class to counteract it. However, my strength far exceeds my level, and I’m equivalent to an entire army. In a sense, my participation could be advantageous, but the specifics depend on the situation at the time,” Su Jiner elaborated.
Hearing this, Mo Xiao nodded thoughtfully, “I see…”
“But there’s no rush. If a siege battle really does happen, the City Lord will receive a system prompt two or three days in advance. We can take a break for now,” Su Jin’er suggested, and without further ado, she lay down on Mo Xiao’s bed. “Your bed is quite hard. You shouldn’t be short on money now. Why not change your residence?”
“No time.” Mo Xiao looked at Su Jin’er lying on the bed and blushed. He quickly sat on a chair, turning away from her gaze, avoiding eye contact.
At the same time, he took out the Spirit Gathering Technique book and quietly rubbed it.
[You rubbed against the Spirit Gathering Technique, and it evolved into the Spirit Condensation Technique!]
[You rubbed against the Spirit Condensation Technique and it evolved into the Heavenly Essence Technique!]
[Heavenly Essence Technique (Red): Absorbs heaven and earth essence energy to strengthen your body! Entering a cultivation state in non-combat states, you can obtain 200 experience points per minute, and every 10 days, gain a freely distributable attribute point!]
