Chapter 75. The 'Big Son' with Excellent Efficiency
Two days later, as the first rays of morning sunlight, like fine golden threads, gently shone down, Zhao Manyan rushed to their apartment in a great hurry.
Mu Nujiao was still sleepy, like a lazy kitten whose sweet dreams were disturbed by a knock on the door.
She rubbed her eyes and mumbled as she opened the door. When she saw Zhao Manyan, her sleepy eyes widened instantly, and she was stunned for a moment.
"What's the rush that you've come all this way so early?" Mu Nujiao asked impatiently, yawning, her voice still hoarse from sleep.
"I'm looking for Mo Fan," Zhao Manyan said.
Mu Nujiao rolled her eyes at him, as if she were looking at an idiot. She muttered to herself: Isn't it obvious? Who else would he come here to look for if not Mo Fan? What an obtuse guy.
Zhao Manyan then belatedly realized that his words were somewhat superfluous, and quickly said, "I brought the Star River Vein that Mo Fan asked me to buy."
(⊙o⊙) Huh?
Upon hearing the words "Pulse of the Star River," Mu Nujiao's previously sleepy eyes widened instantly, her face filled with shock!
The Pulse of the Galaxy!
That's an extremely precious item, and for an advanced intermediate-level mage, it's an even more dazzling treasure.
Is Mo Fan already preparing to break through to a higher level?
The thought flashed through her mind like lightning, instantly clearing her head.
Just then, Mo Fan heard the commotion outside and slowly walked out of the room.
His hair was a little messy, but it gave him a casual feel, and the slightly upturned corners of his mouth carried a hint of unruly smile.
When Mo Fan appeared before him, Zhao Manyan, his "good son," carefully handed the Star River Vein, which was the size of a goose egg and as dazzling as a diamond, to Mo Fan.
Mo Fan accepted the Star River Vein, a barely perceptible glint flashing in his deep eyes. He thought to himself, "This was all earned with the help of a small goal!"
Actually, the Star River Vein was already available in his system store.
However, in Mo Fan's opinion, it was a bit of a waste to exchange it with store coins.
He was also hoping to accumulate these shop coins to exchange for that invaluable dual-element fusion talent.
"Alright, the items are here. The rest of the money is in this card." Zhao Manyan handed the card to Mo Fan.
"Is this money enough to arrange a young model for you?" Mo Fan asked with a wicked grin, his expression carrying a hint of roguishness.
"That's enough." Zhao Manyan nodded without hesitation, a knowing smile on his face.
"Then I'll arrange it for you," Mo Fan said, his tone like that of a generous father.
Zhao Manyan laughed; clearly, he thought Mo Fan was very sensible.
But he didn't accept. Putting everything else aside, just the fact that he had drawn away those vicious pursuers during that operation in the desolate city, allowing Mo Fan and the others to escape successfully, made Zhao Manyan feel that Mo Fan was a good brother worth getting to know.
"We're all good brothers, why say such things… If you make a fortune in the future, then you can arrange things for me." Zhao Manyan was aware of Mo Fan's situation after all.
"Alright then." Seeing this, Mo Fan didn't stand on ceremony with him.
Although money isn't always very useful to Mo Fan, it's better to have it than not, since basic needs like eating, drinking, and relieving oneself still require money.
A moment later, in the living room of the apartment.
Mo Fan looked at Mu Nujiao, who was staring at him expectantly, and couldn't help but feel speechless.
Zhao Manyan, this "good son," is indeed quite efficient, but his mouth is ridiculously big.
Fortunately, that somewhat reckless and foolish woman, Ai Tutu, wasn't around at the moment; otherwise, the whole world would probably know that he was about to attempt to become a high-level mage.
"Are you about to begin your journey to becoming a high-level mage?" Mu Nujiao asked curiously.
"Not yet, I'm just preparing in advance. I plan to go to the wilderness for further training, and maybe I'll suddenly find the opportunity for a breakthrough during the training," Mo Fan explained.
It's important to understand that when the opportunity for a breakthrough arrives, without sufficient energy to break through, the solid nebula barrier is almost impossible to breach.
Moreover, once this opportunity is missed, who knows when the next one will come.
However, when she heard the word "experience," a hint of fear appeared on Mu Nujiao's face.
Clearly, her recent experience outside the country left a very deep impression on her.
She never expected that Mo Fan would still have the courage to undergo training at such a time.
Mo Fan could completely understand Mu Nujiao's reaction.
After all, she's still very young. It's perfectly normal for someone her age to be afraid of wilderness training, because she hasn't truly matured yet.
At their age, very few mages dare to venture into the wilderness.
"As you know, I'm just an ordinary, grassroots mage. Relying solely on peaceful cultivation in the city, I don't know when I'll be able to break through to a higher level," Mo Fan said earnestly.
For him, venturing into the wild to hunt demons was the most suitable way to grow.
In the wilderness, he can not only gain combat experience and hone his combat instincts to be more acute, but also obtain valuable shop coins, which is very beneficial to him.
Mu Nujiao looked at Mo Fan quietly, and suddenly, she seemed to understand something.
She realized that no one's strength is without reason or cause.
Talent is certainly important, but there are quite a few people who possess talent.
But not many can actually stand up straight.
Regardless of whether Mo Fan's choice was risky, the courage to face the dangers of the wild was something she lacked.
"Then you must be very careful..." Mu Nujiao said with concern, her gentle gaze seemingly capable of melting anyone.
"Haha, don't worry about me. I'm not the kind of person who would easily succeed in courting death," Mo Fan said with a laugh. Then he teased Mu Nujiao, "If I really do die one day, you should just find an honest man to marry."
Hearing Mo Fan say that, Mu Nujiao blushed with embarrassment and said irritably, "Get lost!"
Mo Fan's words made her feel strange, as if there was some special relationship between them, but in reality, they did not have any clear emotional ties.
Indeed, Mu Nujiao has a good impression of this "big devil" Mingzhu.
However, compared to women from minor clans like Mu Ningxue, she came from a prestigious family.
She was even more aware that the possibility of a relationship between her and Mo Fan was extremely small.
Of course, if Mo Fan could break through to the advanced level at this age, that would be a different story.
But the prerequisite is that he can succeed and that there are no obstacles on his path to growth.
"Woman, how can your warm lips, at 36.7 degrees Celsius, utter such cold and heartless words?" Mo Fan said mockingly.
"Go to hell!" Mu Nujiao said, stamping her foot.
"Okay, I'll pack up and head out." Mo Fan got up and went into the room. A moment later, he came out with a bag.
As she left, she didn't forget to say to Mu Nujiao, "Don't miss me, Jiaojiao."
