Chapter 370: Chapter 339: A Bit Similar_1

Cang Ming Ocean Territory

Pursuing Wind City

“You three should stay in the city for the time being. I have some things to do, and I’ll be back in a while!”

Upon entering Pursuing Wind City, Xu Mu said these words after settling the three of them.

“Daddy! Don’t worry, we will absolutely behave!” Xu Tianlei thumped his chest in assurance.

Xu Mu didn’t respond to him, instead, he turned to Xu Tianmei sitting on the side.

Compared to Xu Tianlei’s lively character, Xu Tianmei was much calmer.

“Daddy, don’t worry! I’ll take care of them!” assured Xu Tianmei.

“Hmm”

Xu Mu nodded his head and said, “We are in Cang Ming Ocean Territory, not the Outer Sea. Things here are more regulated. If anything unusual happens, be sure to contact me immediately!”

As he spoke, Xu Mu took out a token and handed it to Xu Tianmei.

This was the Elder’s token of the Palace of Pure Heart which was backed by Four Seas Immortal Palace. It still held some weight in the Cang Ming Ocean Territory.

“If something urgent arises, you can use this token to deal with it. Say you’re all disciples of Mo Wuxin!”

“I understand!” said Xu Tianmei as she accepted the token.

Pursuing Wind City is devoid of any formidable experts. With the strength of these two and the lifesaving methods he left behind, they’ll basically encounter no danger. These instructions he gave were just to avoid troubles.

“Ah Chun! Listen well to your two sisters!”

Xu Mu said with a smile, rubbing Ming Lingchun’s head.

Ming Lingchun, who had his identity concealed by a special magic artifact, looked like a regular human boy now. At Xu Mu’s words, he nodded heavily in agreement.

He used to hate humans, but he felt Xu Mu and his daughters were different from other humans.

Next to them, Xu Tianmei couldn’t help but roll her eyes. She didn’t understand why her father was so good to the member of the Sea Race, but indifferent to her, his biological daughter.

After Xu Mu left, Xu Tianlei couldn’t wait to drag Ming Lingchun aside to question him. He even set up a concealment formation to ensure Xu Mu wouldn’t notice anything.

“Who the hell are you? Why does my father treat you so well?” Xu Tianlei asked fiercely.

Xu Tianlei next to them frowned but didn’t stop him.

“I’m from the Sea Race, haven’t I already told you that?” Ming Lingchun asked, bewilderedly scratching his head.

“I know you’re from the Sea Race, I want to know what kind of relationship you have with my dad?” Xu Tianlei retorted impatiently.

This guy looked so dumb, it was really irritating.

“My teacher and your father are friends. He let me follow him!” Ming Lingchun shared.

“What kind of friend? Who’s your teacher?” Xu Tianlei pressed.

During their journey, she hadn’t dared to ask too many questions because her father Xu Mu was present.

“He is from the Snake Clan! Regarding their relationship, I don’t know either!”

Then, Xu Tianlei bombarded him with questions, but unfortunately, Ming Lingchun knew very little and revealed almost the same information repeatedly.

“Enough! Let him go!”

Seeing that Xu Tianlei intended to use a magic spell, Xu Tianmei had to intervene and stop her. If anything truly happened to Ming Lingchun, Xu Mu wouldn’t let them off easily.

“Sis, I feel like this kid is bluffing us! Look at his dumb face, he’s obviously pretending!” Xu Tianlei argued.

“I’m not! Everything I said is the truth!” Ming Lingchun protested.

“Hmm!”

Xu Tianlei snorted coldly. Then, she used her spiritual power to give Xu Tianmei a message. “Sis, don’t you notice?”

“Notice what?” Xu Tianmei’s eyes flickered.

“He looks a bit like dad, don’t you think he could be…”

“Ahem! Stop talking!”

Xu Tianmei hurriedly cut her off.

No matter if their guess was true or not, it wouldn’t significantly affect them. But if Xu Mu found out they had been making unfounded speculations, who knew what consequences there might be.

Although Xu Mu had never scolded them, somehow they harbored an inexplicable fear of him.

This must be the suppression by bloodline, right?

“Oh! I see!”

This wasn’t hard to figure out. She was just seeking confirmation and now it seemed better not to.

“You! Come here!”

Xu Tianlei pointed at Ming Lingchun, just like a gang leader.

“Ok!”

Ming Lingchun obediently walked over.

No matter his cultivation or status, he has no ground for resistance.

Besides, he was used to being bullied among the Sea Race, so he didn’t think there was a problem.

“From now on, you should listen to me. If I tell you to do something, you must do it. Got it?”

Xu Tianlei, using her spiritual power to elevate herself slightly, reprimanded him.

“Understood.”

Ming Lingchun nodded his head.

“Don’t worry, as long as you do as I say! Apart from me, no one will dare to bully you!” Xu Tianlei confidently said.

“Ok!”

Ming Lingchun nodded, unsure if he understood or not.

Xu Tianmei on the side shook her head with a bitter smile. Despite being Xu Yiren’s biological daughter, she felt that Xu Tianlei bore more resemblance to Xu Yiren because both of them liked to dominate.

After she won over Ming Lingchun, the slightly dim-witted ‘little brother’, Xu Tianlei, impatient to leave their residence, dragged the two out.

Although Xu Mu told them not to cause any problems, he didn’t confine them to their rooms. Being their first time in the Cang Ming Ocean Territory, they, of course, didn’t want to spend all their time in their rooms cultivating.

“The Cang Ming Ocean Territory is indeed different. Even though it’s just a small city, it’s more prosperous than the big cities of the Outer Sea!”

“So many years have passed, yet there isn’t much change here. Time really goes slowly for cultivators.”

At an average cultivator’s pace, Xu Mu walked through the city unhurriedly, looking at the streets where he once lived.

Having lived here for many years, he had some impression of most places. Now, looking at it again, it seemed there were only minor changes.

In his previous life, let alone a hundred years, even ten years were enough for a place to turn into something completely different.

But in the cultivation world, because most people care only about their own cultivation, they don’t have much motivation to change the external environment.

For example, White River City, where Xu Mu used to live. Despite possessing the skills to easily remodel it at will, there were very few cultivators who cared; they simply let the polluted water run freely on the streets.

Lower tier cultivators did not care, let alone the high tier ones.

As long as the Spiritual Energy is abundant, everything else is insignificant.

As for lavish decorations and household items, they were often tools used by lower-level individuals to please those above them. Most high tier cultivators didn’t actually care for these mundane items.

Moreover, the items they did care for were not accessible to those lower in rank. So, they could only put in effort on these insignificant things.

Therefore, truly powerful cultivators often had very simple living conditions.

Only the weak cultivators would put on extravagant displays.

For Pursuing Wind City, the most critical thing was the Gathering Spirit Great Array, other living facilities were insignificant.

Xu Mu walked leisurely, looking around, he felt a surreal sense of seeing a distant past.

Just then, a familiar building appeared in front of him, and inside was a familiar figure.

An old man, dressed in a long robe, holding a book in his hands, exuding a somewhat offbeat aura.

Xu Mu stepped forward and walked in.
