By the time Zhao Mu regained her senses, Mu Jiuling had already brought her to the depths of a bamboo forest.

'What an abundance of Spirit Qi!'

Zhao Mu took a deep breath. 'This is definitely not the outer sect area. Even the inner sect may not have such rich Spirit Qi fluctuations.'

'Could this be the core sacred ground of the Saint Prime Devil Sect?'

The core sacred ground was where the upper echelons of the sect lived.

Only a small number of personal disciples were qualified to enter the sacred ground.

Zhao Mu looked at Mu Jiuling in surprise. 'Could this little girl be a personal disciple?'

Mu Jiuling did not intend to explain. Instead, he dragged Zhao Mu to a small bamboo house in the depths of the bamboo forest.

"Follow me. This is my home."

With that, Mu Jiuling pushed open a bamboo door.

Zhao Mu hesitated for a moment before following Mu Jiuling in.

The interior of the bamboo house was very simple. Other than a bed and a desk, there were only a few bookshelves filled with books.

"You live here?" Zhao Mu was a little surprised.

Mu Jiuling said, "I occasionally come here to read and sleep in when I'm free. I don't come here often."

With that, Mu Jiuling pulled Zhao Mu to the bedside.

"Hey, hey. Don't mess around. My willpower is very limited," Zhao Mu hurriedly said.

Mu Jiuling glanced at Zhao Mu with disdain. "You're such a playboy. What kind of nonsense is in your head?"

"Uh, then you dragged me to the bed as soon as you came in. How can I not think about it?"

"Heh, men."

Mu Jiuling did not dwell on this topic. Instead, he walked to the bookshelf and took out two books.

"True Sword Controlling Movement?"

"Profound Heart Sword Technique?"

Zhao Mu asked, "How do you know I want to cultivate the Sword Controlling Technique?"

"You just broke through to the Foundation Establishment Realm not long ago, and you went to the market to buy a flying sword. I guessed that you must want to learn the Sword Controlling Technique. However, the Sword Controlling Technique in the market is worthless. It won't do you any good if you practice too much. You'd better practice mine."

"Oh, right. This flying sword is also for you."

As he spoke, Mu Jiuling took out a flying sword that glowed with a frosty light.

"This is a fourth-grade flying sword, Frost Foil. It's a cold attribute flying sword. I see that the pure Yang in your body is surging, and it's about to overflow. This flying sword can help you suppress the evil fire, so you don't have to think about that all day long."

"Then you're really considerate …"

Zhao Mu could not help but roll her eyes.

"What's wrong? I've given you so many things for free, and you don't appreciate it?"

"Yes, of course. Thank you!"

Although Zhao Mu already had a Fifth Grade Flying Sword, the Celestial Time Hunt, its origins were unknown. It was not safe to take it out rashly.

The value of a grade 5 flying sword was something that even inner court disciples would drool over.

But she didn't need to worry about using the flying sword that Mu Jiuling gave her.

Besides, even if he couldn't use it, he could still give this flying sword to someone else in the future.

If it triggered Ten Thousand Times Return, then he would win.

"Okay, you can stay here and cultivate the Sword Controlling Technique for the next few days. I'll help you deal with other things. Since you've already broken through to the Foundation Establishment Realm, you don't need to be a servant disciple anymore. I'll get someone to upgrade your disciple nameplate to the outer court level."

With that, Mu Jiuling turned to leave.

Seeing that Mu Jiuling was about to leave, Zhao Mu couldn't help but ask, "Girl, who are you?"

Mu Jiuling turned back and smiled sweetly at Zhao Mu. "I'm someone you'll marry sooner or later."

With that, she flew away.

Zhao Mu was left dumbfounded.

'This little girl … is quite good at flirting.'

Shaking his head, Zhao Mu cast aside his distracting thoughts and picked up the Imperial Sword Scripture to read.

But after a few minutes, Zhao Mu felt his head swell and his eyes empty. He could no longer concentrate.

'Didn't I use the Marrow Cleansing Pill to improve my aptitude? Why is it so difficult to learn the Imperial Sword Technique?'

'Could it be that the Marrow Cleansing Pill only improved my body's aptitude but not my comprehension?'

The possibility was very high.

After all, pills were not omnipotent.

Comprehension was something that was innate. It was even more difficult to improve it.

'What should I do? I have everything now. If I can't learn the Imperial Sword Technique because my comprehension is not enough, I'll cry myself to death.'

Zhao Mu was upset. He flipped open the Imperial Sword Scripture again and forced himself to continue reading.

But this time, he could not even hold on for a minute before his eyes lost focus.

Aptitude and comprehension were the two great barriers that stopped cultivators. Neither could be missing.

After several attempts, Zhao Mu could not hold on for more than a minute. He gave up completely.

Rubbing his swollen temples, he pushed open the bamboo door and walked out of the house. He wanted to take a walk and think of a way to improve his comprehension.

After walking a few steps, Zhao Mu suddenly saw a somewhat simple-looking demonic beast. It was lying under a bamboo and taking a nap.

This spirit beast was only the size of a puppy. It was covered in white fur and had a body like a sheep. It had four slender legs and a pair of twisted, artistic horns on its head.

Saint Prime Devil Sect reared a large number of demon beasts. It was normal to see a little demon beast that he did not recognize.

"Eh?"

Zhao Mu's footsteps seemed to have awakened the little demon beast. It opened its eyes wide and looked at Zhao Mu curiously. It was a little dazed and did not look very smart. It was probably not the cub of a powerful demon beast.

Demons were different from humans. They focused on bloodline inheritance.

Powerful demons would pass down their powerful innate abilities to their descendants through their bloodline.

Many demon beasts were born with amazing strength and intelligence.

This little demon beast looked dazed. It meant that its bloodline inheritance was not powerful. It was just an ordinary demon beast cub.

Zhao Mu walked closer and asked, "Where are your parents?"

The little demon beast seemed to understand Zhao Mu's words and showed a sad expression.

"Poor little guy."

Zhao Mu patted the little demon beast's head and said, "Uncle will teach you the multiplication table."

The little demon beast blinked its eyes. It did not seem to understand, but it was interested.

Then, Zhao Mu really recited the multiplication table to the little monster.

The little demonic beast was fascinated by the story. Its eyes lit up as if it was very interested.

'Ding'. 'You've taught demon beast and knowledge.. Hundred-Fold...'.

There was a loud bang in Zhao Mu's mind.

Immediately after, he felt that his thoughts and consciousness had become unprecedentedly ethereal.

It was as if his IQ had suddenly soared to the high ground.

'It's really?'

Zhao Mu........

After all, the Return system system........

Imparting knowledge was also a form of gifting. It could also allow the other party to obtain substantial benefits.

He didn't expect that he would trigger the refund system after trying it out on a whim.

...............

The little demon beast suddenly walked forward and lay on Zhao Mu's thigh. It looked at Zhao Mu with its big watery eyes.

"Little guy, you're quite eager to learn. Okay, then Teacher will teach you a new knowledge. It's called geometry …"
