Chapter 170: Visitor

Xu Xiang looked at those seedlings gently with a smile on her lips, and murmured in a low voice: "Turns out, the first thing to do to save this world is not to gain power, but to heal the world."

Mu Yucheng looked at her when he heard her soft whisper just now. He stared at her for a while and said, "It seems that you finally know what to do."

She nodded, looked at him and said, "Well... I need to thank you for that."

"You don’t need to thank me. I just answered your questions, and my mission is to keep you alive and help you in your journey. This is my duty." He said calmly.

Xu Xiang stared at him for a few seconds and said to herself in a low voice: "I wonder how he grew up, and how he became like this."

Mu Yucheng heard her words, and calmly said, "My Shifu raised me with only one purpose, and that is to save the world when we found the chosen one. Since I can remember, I have spent all my time cultivating and training my sword skill. And because I cultivate the Ruthless Dao, the higher my cultivation base, the more feelings I lose in the process."

After listening to his words, Xu Xiang looked at him in surprise. She really didn’t expect him to really tell her about it. When she looked into his calm and cold eyes, she suddenly didn’t know what to say.

Although she cannot easily trust others after the betrayal in her two previous lives, she can still trust people again if she wants. But for Mu Yucheng, it seemed that there was no turning back for him anymore. If what he just told her was true, his life was more pitiful than hers because he already lost himself and lived only for others.

Xu Xiang lowered her eyes to hide her emotions and softly asked, "Why did you choose to cultivate that Ruthless Dao if the price is your feelings? If you lose all your emotions, are you still you?"

He had no expression on his face, and answered her calmly in a cold voice: "It’s the fastest way to ascend to Heaven, and God doesn’t need emotions. All I need is compassion for all living beings and the world."

She thought for a long time before opening her lips to ask again. But before she had time to ask, A Lu Da’s voice came from behind.

"Xu Xiang, I finally found you." He said as he approached them.

Seeing him coming, Xu Xiang stood up and said, "Mhm. I’m checking the vegetable seedlings. What’s the matter?"

A Lu Da saw Mu Yucheng, nodded to him, then looked at Xu Xiang, and said, "A group of people came to our village just now. My father and the elders said to let you and my fourth younger brother handle it. Now my fourth younger brother is already at the village’s entrance to talk to them and ask me to call you over."

Hearing his words, she frowned slightly and asked, "A group of people? How many people?"

A Lu Da thought for a while, and said, "Around twenty to thirty people. They said they came from a village under the government of Huan Bei City."

Not knowing where Huan Bei City is, she looked at Mu Yucheng and asked, "Do you know where Huan Bei City is?"

Mu Yucheng stood up, thought for a while and said, "It should be the closest city to Lin Zi City. It takes about a month by horse carriage from Lin Zi City to Huan Bei City."

Xu Xiang thought for a moment and said, "Let’s go and have a look."

After walking a few steps, she turned to look at Mu Yucheng and asked, "Aren’t you coming with us?"

Mu Yucheng shook his head and said, "I still want to observe the life force energy."

She nodded and took out a large picnic basket from her space and handed it to him, then said, "Here is your breakfast. Since you didn’t have lunch and dinner yesterday, I prepared a lot of your favorite food."

After giving him the large picnic basket, Xu Xiang and A Lu Da left together. Mu Yucheng looked at the picnic basket in his hand, opened the lid and took a look inside. Seeing his favorite beggar chicken wrapped in lotus leaf on the first layer of the picnic basket, he raised his eyes and looked at her back.

Closing the lid of the picnic basket, he thought: ’I should pay for the food. But... What should I use to pay her? I don’t think I have enough money to pay for all the food and spiritual water she gave me.’

He thought for a moment, then checked his spatial ring and found that there was no money inside, only a few spirit stones left. It’s a pity that mortals don’t share the same currency as the hidden sects, so he can’t use spirit stones to pay her.

He rummaged for a while and found a black stone covered with red lines on its surface in the corner of the spatial ring. After taking out the stone from the spatial ring, he stared at it for a long time.

He then looked at his sword hanging on his waist and said, "I have to pay for the meal, so you need to fast for now. I’m sorry."

After he said that, his sword made a low humming sound in protest. He put the black stone back into the spatial ring, then sat on the ground and began to eat. While Mu Yucheng was eating the delicious beggar chicken, Xu Xiang and A Lu Da had already arrived at the entrance of the village.

She looked at the group of people standing outside the village’s entrance from behind the crowd. Standing behind the crowd, A Lu Da pointed at those people and said, "It’s them."
