Chapter 10: Riding the Winds Across the Nine Realms

After exhausting all my efforts and treating Ye Qingqing to a warm dinner, I sent her home and ascended Shushan once again

After leaving Chengdu, I honestly chose yellow-haired wolf spirits that were one or two levels higher than me to fight. These monsters are fast and have strong attacks, but they do not possess any long-range attack spells, making them incredibly easy for me to bully. First, I used the red jade gourd to release one hundred and eight blood bees, and then employed the Qingcheng Sword Technique to wield the Qingya Ghost Arrow with remarkable skill.

Indeed, this time it is quiet and desolate, and I am all alone, with no one coming to trouble me. I contacted a few friends, but none responded to me; only Qing Teng Qing Wu replied with a message, saying she is currently on a mission, without even mentioning what the mission is. In that case, there is no other option; I might as well go level up! As long as I endure to level 6, I will be able to learn Sword Escape, and then I can fly with my sword.

Forget it! After all, I don't even know what use these merit points have, so I might as well accumulate them slowly

At this point, no matter how cheerful Ye Qingqing was, she couldn't help but blush. Hitting someone else's nephew in front of their elders, even if I am her boyfriend, is simply unacceptable. Don't you agree?

There is water ... ... That must be a water-type creature! However, since it is still buried underground, it might also have some earth attributes ... ... This is truly exciting! I point with two fingers, and the Green Tooth Ghost Arrow can fly out at any moment

I casually bought some wound medicine and Qi-replenishing pills at a small pharmacy in Chengdu. Now, using the Qingya Ghost Arrow requires consuming true energy. As for magical power, I haven't learned any useful spells yet; I only know one called Sword Shadow. That technique releases a sharp sword energy that can harm enemies in the absence of a flying sword, but its damage is too low, rendering it almost useless. Therefore, the pills I bought to replenish magical power are of no use to me.

However, the matter of taking advantage and then pretending to be innocent should also depend on the location and occasion, right? At that moment, I quickly nodded in agreement, not daring to refute my second uncle's words. I merely introduced both parties with a furtive glance. That woman next to my second uncle, of course, is my second uncle's wife. "Please don't misunderstand! The reason I made a special introduction is not for you to think of a mistress... You are truly being unreasonable!"

With each level of the Qingcheng Sword Technique that I enhance, I gain an additional spell. Upon mastering the first level, I learned the Sword Shadow, and upon mastering the second level, I acquired the Escape Sword Technique. This technique is inferior to flying with a sword, but it can increase my movement speed. Given my current health, even if there are high-level monsters hidden here, they cannot kill me in an instant. Once I unleash the Blood Bee Sting to hinder the enemy and then use the Escape Sword Technique to flee, I believe my life will be somewhat safeguarded

Although I do not particularly desire Zhu Mei's magic flying sword, if I were to abandon this task, my relationship with Zhu Mei would deteriorate significantly. In the future, I still need to make a living in Qingcheng, and offending this short-statured Grand Master would make my days very difficult.

I checked the red jade gourd filled with blood wasps, and the number of wasps has been fully replenished. This item is quite powerful, but its health points are too low. Each battle results in the loss of several wasps, and their recovery rate is slow. Otherwise, it would be an excellent tool for monster hunting

Ye Qingqing is indeed a charming host of hetushucom.com. My second uncle's wife... um! My second aunt held her hand and cheerfully asked several questions that were quite inappropriate for someone in a managerial position. As for me! I had long been left on the sidelines and had to serve three cups of coffee to the guests myself, presenting them one by one. Naturally, what followed were some clichéd and overly dramatic scenes.

Over the course of three days, I killed hundreds of yellow-haired wolf spirits, and my level steadily rose to level 18. Initially, this work was quite enjoyable, but it soon became rather frustrating. The only consolation I found was that my merit points had increased significantly. According to the level of the monsters, killing one yields about one to five merit points. I have worked tirelessly to accumulate a total of 1,076 points, but compared to the task I received from Zhu Mei to accumulate 100,000 merit points, I am still far from achieving that goal.

Suddenly, with a murmur in my heart, the soil in the forest began to surge. The previously dry ground became moist, and eventually turned to mud. Yet, from where this spring water emerged, there was no sign to be found. The trees in this area were relatively sparse, but they were all ancient and lush, with many as thick as a bowl. However, once touched by the surging soil, they immediately sank deep, and in the blink of an eye, their crowns disappeared.

Whether this thought is foolish or immature, I could not determine at the time; however, the subsequent developments exceeded my expectations. When the sun in Mount Shu reached its zenith, the forest had fallen into complete silence. Since a long-eared rabbit demon had dashed by ten minutes earlier, I had not seen any other moving creature.

During the time of ambush, I was utterly bored and would often check my system status. Now, my Qingcheng Sword Technique has reached the third level, with sword power increased by 90, sword speed increased by 105, over 300 points of true energy, nearly 400 points of mana, and my health has also increased by 481

After today's upgrade, my curiosity became uncontrollable, so I took the opportunity to rush there and lay in ambush. Recently, after fighting the yellow-haired wolf spirit for so long, aside from two black dog nails and a usable piece of earth talisman, the rest were useless and *illustrated* garbage, which I gave to the purchasing NPC.

Black Dog Nail, a type of magical artifact, requires 5 mana points to activate. Once nailed to an enemy, it inflicts damage of 22 to 28 per second. Earth Talisman, also a type of magical artifact, can emit a cloud of yellow sand. While its power is not significant, it can dazzle the eyes, making it an excellent tool for ambushes, covert attacks, and surprise strikes

Recently, while hunting wolf spirits in the outskirts of Chengdu, I gradually discovered a very peculiar phenomenon: every day at noon, a certain forested area suddenly becomes devoid of any living creatures, including the more ferocious monsters and evil spirits, as well as the harmless crickets. This phenomenon is indeed quite intriguing.

After leaving the company, I had to argue with my girlfriend that I am a new generation of capable individuals, unwilling to rely on my family, and eager to strive for success on my own. Anyone else would surely not believe these words, but Ye Qingqing has no choice but to believe them, for I am her boyfriend

I am not an especially obsessed player, so I cannot rise on the leaderboard of top players. Currently, the highest level in Shushan has already exceeded level 20. However, I, the drunken green bull, will ultimately not remain inconspicuous
