Steam filled the air in the bathhouse.
The odd-job workers who followed Hua Rou in were all shocked when they saw the spirit runes on Jiang Leng's body.
Even if it was an adult, they would still be very cautious when drawing spirit runes on their bodies. They would definitely choose the most valuable spirit rune that was most compatible with them. Moreover, they would spend a lot of money to hire a spirit rune grandmaster to draw it for them.
This was because once a spirit rune was damaged, it would be extremely difficult to repair it. Moreover, a broken spirit rune would also interfere with the absorption and circulation of spirit qi.
In any case, if there wasn't a need, ordinary people wouldn't choose to draw spirit runes on their bodies. However, this young man in front of them was only 13 or 14 years old, yet he was already defiling his body.
Even a rookie with unlimited potential was crippled.
Hua Rou made a shushing gesture. After sweeping a few glances, she no longer paid any attention to them and turned her gaze toward Sun Mo. This great teacher halo of his wasn't bad. However, why did he want to take in this young man with the word 'trash' above his head?
Even the most ignorant teacher knew that he had no future.
The genie had long since vanished. Sun Mo also retreated to avoid disturbing Jiang Leng's breakthrough. When he saw Hua Rou's group rushing in, he had wanted to block the door.
However, these people didn't make a ruckus. Hence, Sun Mo no longer took the initiative to persuade them. If not, if a commotion were to occur, the one who would be affected would be Jiang Leng.
A few minutes later, the spiritual energy gradually calmed down.
Jiang Leng let out a breath of turbid air and started to regulate his breathing.
Hua Rou took the opportunity to size them up.
A sickly man coughed frequently. Even when he was bathing, he would hold a handkerchief in his hand and cover the corner of his mouth from time to time.
As for the remaining two, they were terrifyingly strong. Their bodies were well-toned and didn't lose out to adults at all. However, if one were to talk about coordination and pleasing to the eye, Sun Mo was still the best.
Sun Mo's muscles weren't very obvious, and the ratio of his body length to his hands and feet was very perfect. He belonged to the type that people couldn't help but want to touch the moment they saw him.
Hua Rou didn't know that this was the effect of the Diamond Fruit. Its effect was to make a person's body perfect.
Both Xuanyuan Po and Qi Shengjia were too muscular. They looked very muscular and had a sense of masculinity and violence. It was completely different from Sun Mo's elegance.
Jiang Leng opened his eyes, his face filled with uncontrollable joy. He quickly walked toward Sun Mo and knelt down with a thud.
"Teacher, thank you!"
Jiang Leng's voice came from the bottom of his heart.
If it wasn't for Sun Mo's Ancient Dragon Capturing Hands and the encouragement from Priceless Advice, he would've failed in his breakthrough like before.
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Jiang Leng + 50. Friendly (240/1,000).
"I'm your teacher. It's my job to guide you!"
Sun Mo helped Jiang Leng up and observed his data in passing.
Jiang Leng, 12 years old, spirit-refinement realm, 2 acupoints opened.
Strength 11? Killing people with strength? That was rough work!
Intelligence: 11. If a problem could be solved with brute force, one would be too lazy to use their brains. This was because one could crush many people.
Agility 11, average.
Endurance: 13. An indestructible iron man.
Willpower: 12. Currently in high spirits, full of enthusiasm for life, ready to start a new life.
Potential value: low.
Note: My respect for you is increasing. The signs of suicide have been extinguished.
Sun Mo felt very gratified. Although Jiang Leng didn't like to talk and would often put on an expressionless poker face, exuding an aura that made him seem like a corpse that had just been dug out, he knew how to be grateful. At the very least, he knew more than that sickly invalid.
"Congratulations!"
Tantai Yutang congratulated and came over, wanting to study the spirit runes on Jiang Leng's body. However, Sun Mo had already picked up the towel and draped it over Jiang Leng.
Because of this small action, Jiang Leng contributed another 30 favorable impression points.
Upon hearing the system's notification, Sun Mo wasn't surprised. The more sensitive a youth was, the greater the fluctuation in their emotions toward such gentleness.
"Let's fight?"
Xuanyuan Po didn't forget to fight at all times.
"Congratulations!"
Qi Shengjia was very envious. His lips moved a few times, but he still didn't dare to ask Sun Mo to accept him as a disciple. He was worried that if Sun Mo rejected him, he wouldn't even have the chance to stay by his side.
Moreover, he was trash. If Sun Mo accepted him, wouldn't he be throwing his face away?
"Teacher Sun, congratulations to your beloved disciple for successfully leveling up!"
Hua Rou walked over with a smile on her face.
"I'm sorry, I've caused trouble for boss again." Sun Mo apologized. "I'll pay for the repair fees for the door and the cleaning fees for the bathhouse."
"Teacher Sun is too serious. It's just a small amount of money. There's no need to mention it again!"
Hua Rou rejected.
It was hard to be a teacher, but it was even harder to be a good teacher that students respected from the bottom of their hearts. Hence, this Sun Mo was a little impressive!
How much money would it cost to repair a door? If she could build a good relationship with Sun Mo now, it would be a high return if Sun Mo became a great teacher in the future.
"Boss Hua is really magnanimous!"
Sun Mo said courteous words, but his gaze was subtly surveying this woman.
Earlier, he had only cared about looking at the data. Only now did Sun Mo discover that this woman was quite beautiful. She had an oval face with exquisite features and her eyes were big. The most eye-catching part was her body. She was clearly a voluptuous young married woman.
The only flaw was that she was a little short.
Jiang Leng had successfully leveled up, and he had completed 2/5 of the mission issued by the system. Moreover, since the door was damaged, Sun Mo didn't have the mood to continue bathing.
Hence, he asked for a small private room and washed up. He then called out to everyone and left.
"Teacher actually wants to bathe alone again? Does he have mysophobia?"
Xuanyuan Po was curious.
"Maybe!"
Tantai Yutang's lips twitched. In this era, when men bathed, they would all go to a large bathhouse. Those who climbed out and wanted to bathe again were either unreasonable or mysophobia.
...
After Sun Mo's group left, a middle-aged man who had just come to bathe suddenly sniffed the air after walking up the stairs.
"What's this smell?"
The middle-aged man frowned and walked over in the direction of the smell.
"Eh? Customer, please walk this way! "
The worker chased after him but didn't dare to stretch out his hand to stop him. It was because this middle-aged man had a high status just from his clothes and demeanor.
"Don't disturb me!"
The middle-aged man frowned and came to the bathroom that Sun Mo had used before. He sniffed hard and then frowned as he walked to the side of the bathtub.
"Customer, be careful!"
A worker was currently cleaning the room.
"Is this a medicinal bath?"
Looking at the red bathwater in the bathtub, the middle-aged man felt that it was dirty. However, after hesitating a little, he still put his hand in.
"Eh? The spirit qi in this water is very dense. No, it's not just dense... "
The middle-aged man was surprised. From the looks of it, this person had clearly bathed in it before. If he hadn't bathed in a medicinal bath before, wouldn't the medicinal effect be even stronger?
"I also want to soak in such a medicinal bath!"
The middle-aged man instructed.
"Customer, this... this..."
The worker was put in a difficult position.
"I'll pay more!"
The middle-aged man had only come to Jinling for a few days and wasn't familiar with the rules here. He thought that the medicinal baths used by the distinguished guests weren't open to outsiders.
"It's not a problem of money. This seems to be done by the customers using their own medicinal bath bags!"
The worker explained. After all, he had heard the commotion earlier.
"Oh? Do you know the identities of those customers? "After the middle-aged man said that, he shook his head." Forget it, I'll go and ask your boss! "
Before going to look for the boss, the middle-aged man personally jumped into the bathtub again and carefully sensed the abnormality of the bathwater.
Mn, this was good stuff. It was worth it for him to make a trip here!
Very soon, Hua Rou saw this middle-aged man.
"Is there a problem with the bathwater?"
Hua Rou frowned.
"There's no problem, I'm just curious!"
The middle-aged man looked at an ink painting hanging on the wall and couldn't help but shake his head. It was too ugly.
"Sorry, I don't know."
Hua Rou rejected. If this middle-aged man found Sun Mo and created trouble for him, it might affect their relationship.
At the very least, before she ascertained that Sun Mo had no value, she mustn't tell him.
"You don't know?"
The middle-aged man broke into a mischievous smile. "The door to that room is broken. In addition, the spirit qi waves inside haven't calmed down completely. Clearly, someone leveled up ten minutes ago. Mn, it should be two people."
Hearing this, Hua Rou was shocked. She stared at the middle-aged man and asked, "Who are you?"
To be able to sense the spirit qi waves and accurately say the number of people who had leveled up, this person's strength was a little terrifying!
"A normal person!"
There seemed to be some problems with the middle-aged man's train of thought. He answered casually and continued the earlier topic, "Since it's a breakthrough, the commotion would definitely not be small. Moreover, it happened twice. Therefore, as the boss, how could you not go and take a look and ask? Therefore, I won't believe you if you say you don't know who it is! "
Hua Rou fell silent, weighing the pros and cons.
She was a businessman, and she couldn't possibly make a losing deal!
The middle-aged man flicked his finger.
Pak!
A white alchemy pill landed on the table in front of Hua Rou, spinning on the spot. Just by looking at this move, Hua Rou knew that the middle-aged man had extraordinary strength.
However, after smelling the scent emitted from the alchemy pill, she immediately gasped and exclaimed subconsciously.
"Origin Nurturing Pill?"
This alchemy pill was the size of a hawthorn. It was white and translucent, emitting a fragrance that made one feel refreshed and full of strength.
It was called the Origin Nurturing Pill, and it was a type of alchemy pill used in the body-refining realm. After consuming it, it could directly consolidate one's foundation and strengthen one's physique, allowing one's realm to rise by one level.
Of course, it was very expensive as well. Any one of them would cost up to ten thousand taels of silver. If one's family didn't have a mine, it would be better for them to just cultivate.
The Origin Nurturing Pill was an alchemy pill used in the lower realms and was very common. Hua Rou had consumed one back then as well. The reason why she was surprised was that the grade of the alchemy pill in front of her was extremely high.
At the very least, it was at the celestial pole.
That's right. Alchemy pills had different effects due to the utensils, ingredients, refining techniques, luck, and other factors.
The higher the grade, the higher the medicinal effect. After consuming it, there would be lesser impurities left in the body.
The alchemy pill in front of Hua Rou was definitely of extremely high quality. Even if ordinary cultivators wanted to buy it, they wouldn't be able to.
Firstly, they didn't have the connections, and secondly, it was too expensive!
"Esteemed customer, may I know your name?"
Hua Rou's attitude instantly became a lot more respectful. She couldn't afford to offend a person who could casually toss out a peak-grade Origin Nurturing Pill as a reward.
However, a hint of curiosity rose in her heart. What kind of medicinal bath packet did Sun Mo use? To think that it could make this major character so interested?
