This man was not easy to fool, but the vegetable base was in a remote rural area. How could she take him to see it now? "But it's far away." Murong Xue said in a low voice.

"Then you have to die." The voice was even colder.

Murong Xue recalled some vegetables she tried planting in the villa last time, and she could only show him these. "OK, then let's go!" She told him the address of the villa.

After hearing Murong Xue's words, the man who was about to use force paused for a moment and then continued driving.

They arrived at the villa. Murong Xue was surprised to see that the ten guards sent by Chu Yisen were still guarding dutifully at the gate. She thought they had returned to Chu Yisen's side after she left. Warmth filled her heart.

Because they were not Murong Xue's guys, the ten guards were only responsible for guarding the villa and Murong Xue's safety in the villa. They also reported to Chu Yisen about what Murong Xue was doing. In daily life, they didn't say hello to Murong Xue, which was required by Chu Yisen because Chu Yisen knew Murong Xue didn't like it.

Murong Xue opened the door and then turned on all the lights by remote control. Although she looked casual, she was actually preparing. If the man dared to do anything, she would immediately get into the Space. The guards outside also eased her mind.

"Spiritual qi! Where is it?" The man's cold voice came over.

Murong Xue rolled her eyes when he didn't pay attention. They just entered the room and she wasn't a God who could summon something at once. But Murong Xue still said patiently, "It's on the balcony." She also quickened her pace. Who knew if this man would grab her neck again because of dissatisfaction? Her neck still hurt.

They walked to the French window. Murong Xue reached out and pushed the window open. The vegetables were glittering. There was still some spiritual qi though not much because they were watered with diluted spiritual water. The moment they came close, they felt relaxed and cheerful, and even their pores enlarged.

The man couldn't hide his surprise. After crouching down, he reached out and gently touched the leaves of vegetables. His whole body trembled. This was really spiritual qi.

"These vegetables are grown by you?" The man asked.

"No." Murong Xue subconsciously replied.

The man stood up and looked at Murong Xue coldly as if he had seen through Murong Xue's lies. "Where did this vegetable come from?"

"I just bought them in the vegetable market outside." Murong Xue regretted that she had caused herself trouble.

The man sneered. "You bought it but didn't eat it. Just plant it here? How do you know that it contains spiritual qi? Are you an ascension master?" She was bombarded with questions.

Murong Xue was speechless. "Are you investigating me? I only promised to tell you where the vegetables are. I didn't say I would tell you other things. Besides, what the hell is the method you said? I don't know whether it works." She couldn't just let him keep asking.

The man's face darkened, and then he smiled. "It's okay not to say."

And then his expression suddenly changed, giving off a malicious and aggressive vibe. "Then go to hell!"

Murong Xue seemed to feel that she was under a mountain, and she almost lost her footing. She bit her lip. How could she be a coward and kneel down? Slowly, she was sweating more and more. Before long, she looked like she had just come out of water. She was biting herself so hard, and blood oozed out from her lips.

A sense of admiration passed across the man's eyes. He withdrew his power.

Murong Xue instantly felt relieved. Her legs were so weak that she almost couldn't feel them.

"Out with it!" Murong Xue looked so delicate and charming, but the man didn't show any mercy.

Murong Xue couldn't help leaning against the wall. At that moment, she obviously felt the breath of death. Just now, she couldn't get into the Space.

Now, she knew very clearly that the Space was not omnipotent.

"I don't know what you mean by 'an ascension master'. I'm not one. I know that there is spiritual qi because I can see it." Murong Xue didn't lie. She could really see it, and she thought everyone was like her.

Being able to see spiritual qi was a rarity itself!

"You said you could see it?" Surprise passed across the man's cold face.

Seeing the man's reaction, Murong Xue knew that she had said the wrong thing, but the words could not be undone, so she had to admit. "Yes." She gave the man a careful glance.

The man lowered his head and seemed to be thinking about something. His mood was difficult to read from his eyes, and Murong Xue was scared. She hoped that she could get back to a few hours ago. If she had been given another chance, she wouldn't have waved her hands.

"These vegetables..." The man spoke slowly.

Before the man finished his words, Murong Xue hurriedly said, "It's for you, and you can take all of them." She couldn't wait for this man to take them and get out of here.

The man gave Murong Xue a cold look. "Did I ask for these vegetables?" Although they had spiritual qi, it was too weak to have any effect on him.

"Clearly, he is here for the vegetable, but he pretends to put on a lofty air." Murong Xue thought to herself.

"What did you say?" The man asked with a cold face.

Murong Xue immediately straightened up, looked up and then down, and just didn't look at him. She played the innocent card. "Did I say anything? I didn't say anything."

The man shot a light into Murong Xue's body with his hand, and then he said, "Let me know next time you find more spiritual qi, and I will come to you every once in a while."

"You... What did you do?" Murong Xue stared at him. Although she didn't feel any discomfort, she clearly saw something go inside her body. It was so disgusting.

"Just to prevent you from escaping. Don't worry. Normally, it poses no threat to you." Then he jumped off the window sill and flew away.

Murong Xue, who stayed in place, rubbed her eyes in amazement.

What a pervert she had run into!

Ascension?

It was her first time to have contact with a world different from hers.

She thought of the pill the man mentioned. Murong Xue walked into her room and locked the door. Within a second, she vanished into thin air.

"Grandpa, grandma..." Murong Xue smiled and walked to her grandparents who were sitting in the courtyard and enjoying the surrounding scenery.

"Xue, you finally come in! I miss you so much!" Her grandma immediately stood up and walked towards her.

It had only been a few hours outside, but in the Space years had passed. Fortunately, Murong Xue had prepared a lot of things in the Space. There were enough daily necessities, and goods here would not go bad.

"Grandpa, grandma, I’m sorry. If you are bored, how about I take you out?" Murong Xue said with some guilt.

Her grandpa waved his hand. "No, I won't go out. You don't know how comfortable it is here. There are no people disturbing me." Maybe because he was getting on years, he enjoyed the carefree and idyllic life here where he grew flowers every day.

"By the way, you can buy some birds, fish, and turtles. I want to keep some pets." Her grandma smiled happily.

Murong Xue nodded. It would be more fun to have some animals here. They only had chickens here, but chickens were for eating.

"OK, I'll buy some after I go out later."

Murong Xue let go of her grandma's hand. "Grandma and grandpa, go on chatting. I'll go into the Library Box to find some books." She waved to them and walked inside. She couldn't wait to read those Medicine Books. They were not useless. It was just her level was not up to standard, so she could not understand.

She found several Medicine Books, picked up one, and read it carefully. She didn't know if it was because the man opened a window in her mind, now she could understand some content in the book.

The book said that if one wanted to refine pills, their level had to reach yellow-level.

But she didn't know what yellow-level was, but she guessed that it must have something to do with the man she met today. Some abilities or qualities were cultivated and refined, and they were also classified by level.

Though not entirely right, Murong Xue was almost on point.
