World-saving Plan: The Only Savior-Chapter 645 - 489: The Greatest Mind King in History (Two in One)_2
Chapter 645: Chapter 489: The Greatest Mind King in History (Two in One)_2
Zhang Xiaoman thought about it, and simply exchanged three more Osmanthus Pills from the mall, tossing two to Big Black and one to the nearby Jiu Jiu.
The pitiful appearance of the creature made it somewhat unbearable to watch.
So, he simply gave it one to see how a summoned creature like this consumed food, and what changes would occur after it had eaten.
As for Big Black, there was no need to say much; after eating two Osmanthus Pills, it gained two more years of life, and its spirit had recovered a lot, even starting to jump around.
Meanwhile, Little Fox Jiu Jiu, holding the little pill given by its master, joyfully chirped for a while, then flew into the air, keeping a distance from the dog, as if afraid it would try to steal the pill.
"Smack smack smack~"
The palm-sized Little Fox smacked its lips while eating.
Moreover, its body was blue and semi-transparent, and after biting into the Osmanthus Pill, it was impossible to see where the pill went, as if it was directly absorbed.
"Huh? The Evolution Points actually increased?"
Zhang Xiaoman observed Jiu Jiu for a while and eventually found that it had gained 1 Evolution Point at the very bottom of its attribute panel.
"1 Evolution Point, that’s 10 points, equivalent to when I ’hit’ it during an Upgrade..." freёwebnoѵel.com
Zhang Xiaoman quickly calculated the ratio and found that feeding Jiu Jiu the pills was actually not a loss at all.
Moreover, if he wanted to specifically Upgrade this Skill in the future, he could just directly use a large amount of pills for feeding, eliminating the randomness of the System’s draw.
"It seems that obtaining Evolution Points doesn’t necessarily rely only on the Upgrade function, huh, does that mean that other Skills can also be upgraded through corresponding methods...?"
He immediately thought of a possibility.
However, this would still require further exploration, and it was unlikely that he would find the answer any time soon.
Seeing Master Liu playing with the dog fur nearby, Zhang Xiaoman decided not to disturb him and left the area with Ye Yunxiu and Jiu Jiu.
Along the way, Ye Yunxiu appeared hesitant to speak.
Zhang Xiaoman, noticing what he wanted to say, took the initiative and said:
"Mr. Ye, I know what you’re about to say, but unfortunately, what just happened only works on Spiritual Beasts and has no effect on humans."
Hearing this, Ye Yunxiu’s expression stiffened momentarily, then he gave a wry smile and nodded.
He fell behind, watching Zhang Xiaoman’s back in front of him, and couldn’t help but get startled as he recalled the recent events.
"He really deserves to be the Star Lord, no wonder he chose to come today. It seems he not only anticipated that America would face a sudden incident but also calculated the matters concerning Master Liu, what a tactician indeed, no wonder even I can’t see through him..."
A look of reverence appeared on his face, and he reflected on his past probes and analyses of the other party, which all proved fruitless.
It seemed that everything about this person was shrouded in a hazy shadow, making him as inscrutable as flowers seen through the fog.
The things that surfaced seemed to be deliberately shown by the other party.
Ye Yunxiu thought about a lot in a moment, but no matter how he thought, he had a feeling that "things shouldn’t be this way."
It was like a chain reaction, linked endlessly.
No matter from which angle he analyzed, he could always find another hidden layer of meaning, eventually summing it up in four words—unfathomably deep!
However, what Ye Yunxiu didn’t know was that he was simply overthinking.
Initially, Zhang Xiaoman did intentionally reduce his contact with Ye Yunxiu, a psychology expert, to avoid exposing any flaws.
But later, as his statements became reality and his strength increased, the Star Alliance was no longer just a shell, and he didn’t deliberately conceal anything from him.
However, due to the passive nature of the Shadow Lord, he subconsciously blocked the other’s tracking of himself.
This led to Ye Yunxiu, while analyzing information about Zhang Xiaoman, often finding his thoughts filled with forgetfulness and mistakes.
Moreover, being a Transcendent himself with strong spiritual power and a higher level of life, Ye Yunxiu would feel tremendous pressure during each of his encounters with him afterward.
Ye Yunxiu was also a psychology major; he tended to think about problems in a more complex way.
Whenever he recognized that someone’s planning ability was equivalent to or even surpassed his own, he would always consider issues from complicated and twisted perspectives.
This multitude of factors led to the current misunderstanding.
Of course, Zhang Xiaoman was still unaware of Ye Yunxiu’s convoluted way of thinking.
As far as he was concerned, some things were already established facts and he had no fear of them being perceived by others.
Ye Yunxiu was one of their own; as long as he kept the fact that he possessed the System well hidden, there was nothing else to worry about.
The two walked around the Main Peak, and Zhang Xiaoman took the opportunity to check the recent progress of the construction here.
Many new houses had been built, all in vintage styles, and they did not look out of place, blending well with the environment of Dragon Sleep Mountain.
The disciples staying here would always greet them with a salute when they passed by.
They were unaware of the Star Touching Ceremony; currently, they still used the traditional Dragon Sleep Mountain bowing ceremony, which matched well with their attire.
Everyone had come to recognize the people dressed in Daring Clothes and knew that this person before them was "Lord Jixing," a man whom even Sect Leader Ye Cang held in high regard.
The disciples did not know what a "Star Lord" was, so they imagined him as a True Disciple of a hidden sect, a Cultivator with great power.
The transformations seen in Dragon Sleep Mountain today were all due to the existence of this hidden sect.
It was because of them that Dragon Sleep Mountain could embark on the path of cultivation successfully.
It was only the beginning now, and in the future, as disciples of the mountain, everyone would have the opportunity to access the ways of cultivation.
Although these people’s imaginations were somewhat off, their general direction was not wrong; this was also one of Zhang Xiaoman’s short-term development goals for this branch base.
After lunch, just as he was preparing to leave, Pei Laoliu suddenly approached.
"Xiao Man, really, thank you for everything with Big Black... you know, I’ve always been alone, and usually, it’s only this dog thing that listens to me... spending those elixirs on him..."
He spoke haltingly for a long time, struggling to make his point clear.
Zhang Xiaoman was seeing Master Liu in this awkward manner for the first time and couldn’t help but laugh:
"Master Liu, you’re not here to thank me, are you? Hey, when did you become so polite? Those elixirs are nothing precious; you don’t need to make such a fuss."
At these words, Pei Laoliu initially looked stunned, then glared.
"You little rascal, where is your mind wandering off to? I’m not here to thank you! I just saw you about to leave and wanted to say goodbye!"
Zhang Xiaoman smiled, knowing Master Liu was just being stubborn, and didn’t call him out. He chatted with him for a while longer, planning to teleport away.
As he was about to activate his Skill, he noticed the expression on Master Liu’s face and suddenly understood the emotions hidden behind it.
Zhang Xiaoman knew that Master Liu was actually very eager to learn about these matters.
After all, a fortune-teller who had spent his whole life in the trade, upon discovering that there were real Cultivators in this world, couldn’t help but be curious about the truth.
However, due to his past admonitions, Master Liu was also a man who knew his boundaries; he naturally did not inquire further to avoid making things difficult.
Zhang Xiaoman suddenly felt a pang of guilt.
Master Liu and his mother were the only family he had left; with the world about to undergo significant changes, always keeping these secrets from him didn’t seem right.
He hesitated for a moment, then thought about how Master Liu now also possessed System Skills and would likely become a target for Alien Species in the future.
It might be better to take this opportunity to lead him on the path of cultivation so that he would have means to protect himself in the future.
Having made up his mind, he looked at Master Liu and said:
"Master Liu, come with me; today, I’ll take you to a new place, to see the results of my recent endeavors."
