Chapter 111 Shi Rui comes to visit

Outside the road to heaven.

Zhao Mu returned to reality and couldn't help but sigh.

The battle on the ninth floor lasted only a cup of tea.

Although the four big monsters in the early stage of the transformation of the spirit were powerful, Zhao Mu could barely fight them back and forth.

But when the big monster in the middle stage of the transformation of the spirit attacked, Zhao Mu was completely unable to support and was soon knocked off the platform.

Although there was a suspicion of first sight killing, if Zhao Mu could challenge a few more times and figure out the fighting methods of these monsters, he might be able to hold on for a while longer.

However, according to Zhao Mu's estimation, even if he went all out, he could at most kill two monsters in the early stage of the transformation of the spirit at the same time.

This is the limit of what he can do at present.

Zhao Mu did not continue to challenge the ninth floor.

This test ended here. Maybe after he cultivated the Eight Desolate Fire Art, he could challenge again, but there was no need for it now.

When he looked up, Zhao Mu found that many pairs of eyes were staring at him.

"Brother Zhao, you are great!"

"Brother Zhao should have broken the record of the shortest entry time and the highest number of challenged levels."

"You are the pride of our human cultivators!"

"Brother Zhao, please be my Taoist partner!"

"Why are you joining in the fun, Brother Zhao, why don't you come to my house? I am naturally charming and I promise to make you spend an unforgettable night."

Oh my god, I am surrounded.

Zhao Mu was worried that if he stayed a little longer, he would be dragged home, so he quickly flew away from the Heavenly Road on his sword.

After returning to the cave, Zhao Mu gave the little bastard a lesson on spiritual medicine knowledge. With good luck, he broke through and became a third-grade alchemist.

Then he began to practice the Eight Desolate Fire Art in seclusion.

A few days later.

That day, Zhao Mu had just finished practicing and was soaking in the hot spring when someone suddenly called him outside the cave.

Zhao Mu took a gentlemanly look and saw the pretty figure standing outside the cave, and was slightly surprised.

It turned out to be Shi Rui.

Why did she come to the door?

Could it be that he was hit by a bullet and came to take care of himself?

"It shouldn't be, I'm obviously very careful."

Zhao Mu muttered for a while, but still opened the door of the cave and let Shi Rui in.

"Junior Brother Zhao, I'm sorry to bother you."

Shi Rui bowed and said.

Zhao Mu appeared in front of Shi Rui wearing a large bathrobe.

"Senior Sister Shi, you don't have to be polite. You suddenly visited me today. Is there something important?"

"I heard about Junior Brother Zhao's return a few days ago, but I was too busy at the time to take a break. Today I finally have some free time, so I prepared a small gift and brought it to Junior Brother Zhao, which can be regarded as repaying Junior Brother's kindness before."

Zhao Mu was even more surprised.

He has always given gifts to others, but it is rare for someone to come to his door to give him gifts today.

"Senior Sister Shi is too polite. Why do you bring gifts when you come?"

"They are all some small toys I made myself, worthless."

Shi Rui smiled sweetly, waved her little hand, and summoned palm-sized puppet mechanical beasts.

These puppet beasts are shaped like turtles, and their bodies are as white as jade. They can fly and run, and they are very agile. As soon as they were released by Shi Rui, they began to run around, and soon dispersed to various corners of the cave to clean and organize the sundries.

"This is the household puppet I made. It can clean, organize, wash clothes and cook, record and receive visitors, and has a variety of functions. With this batch of household puppets, I believe it can save a lot of trouble for Junior Brother Zhao."

Shi Rui seemed quite proud when introducing her puppets. These were all puppet mechanical beasts she independently made and invented. Although the level was not high and they were not competent for fighting, they were definitely very useful for handling trivial matters.

"Senior Sister Shi is thoughtful."

Zhao Mu still felt a little strange in his heart. He opened the system interface to check Shi Rui's favorability, but unexpectedly found that the favorability had not increased, but had dropped to 60 points.

This is because after being bound to the system, the lower limit of the favorability is 60, and it is impossible to drop further.

If it was not bound, Shi Rui's favorability would definitely have fallen below 60.

But why is this?

If the favorability is lowered, why would Shi Rui give me a gift again?

Is there some plot?

Or is this gift itself not serious?

These puppet mechanical beasts can be used for miscellaneous tasks if they are used well, but it also means that they can always monitor Zhao Mu's every move.

Zhao Mu's eyes flashed, as if he realized something.

This woman is not a good person.

This is a bit troublesome.

Zhao Mu is not worried that Shi Rui will bring him any potential danger. He thinks the trouble is that if Shi Rui becomes his enemy, then her favorability will definitely not be improved, and she will occupy a binding quota permanently.

"System, if the bound object dies, will it continue to occupy the binding quota?" Zhao Mu asked in his heart.

"Ding, if the bound object encounters an accidental death, it will be automatically unbound."

That's fine.

Zhao Mu smiled at Shi Rui: "Sister Shi, you have come all the way here, why don't you have dinner with me before leaving? My master sent some meat of the spirit transformation realm monsters, which tastes pretty good."

Shi Rui did not notice any change in Zhao Mu's tone, she nodded and said: "Then I will obey your command."

Leading Shi Rui back home, Zhao Mu closed the door calmly, activated the formation in the cave, and sealed off the entire cave.

But Shi Rui didn't know all this. She kept smiling and chatting with Zhao Mu. Her eyes were full of love. Her cheeks were flushed and her heartbeat was accelerated.

Anyone who saw it would think that Shi Rui had a crush on Zhao Mu.

If he hadn't seen the favorability, Zhao Mu wouldn't have had any doubts.

This woman's acting skills are really good.

Zhao Mu didn't rush to expose him. Since you like to act, I'll play with you.

"Sister Shi, are you in love with me?" Zhao Mu suddenly asked.

"Why did Junior Brother Zhao suddenly ask this? It's embarrassing..." Shi Rui's eyelashes trembled, and she turned her body away and didn't dare to look directly into Zhao Mu's eyes.

That shy little demeanor was extremely well grasped. Even if a veteran in the love field met her, he would probably fall.

Zhao Mu walked over, hugged Shi Rui from behind, and whispered in her ear: "Like means like, seven emotions and six desires are human nature, why should you be shy, you and I have been husband and wife, but we just lack understanding, why don't we get closer and give each other a chance."

"Junior brother, please respect yourself!"

Shi Rui suddenly broke away from Zhao Mu's arms, blushing and said: "I am not the kind of woman who does things casually. Even if you have saved my life, you can't force me. This is not what a gentleman does. If... Junior brother really likes me, I can give you a fair chance to pursue me."

"Senior sister, you are meaningless."

Zhao Mu's expression changed, and he said in a joking tone: "You want to cheat me, but you are not willing to pay. There is no such good thing in the world."

"You... what are you talking about?"

Shi Rui suddenly had a bad feeling, and her tone became flustered.
