The second reason was to take Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing with him.
What? You said I was lustful.
Nonsense. Food and sex are human nature.
And Crops were a very good lure.
Besides, what he was giving them wasn't even high-grade rice.
Ning Rongrong looked at Xiao Ze suspiciously, but still took a small bite.
At once, a rich, fragrant flavor filled her mouth.
"Mmm..." Ning Rongrong immediately covered her mouth.
"This... this..."
"It's so good you can't even speak?" Xiao Ze said with a smile.
"What kind of rice is this?" As the young lady of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, how could Ning Rongrong not have eaten expensive rice before?
But none of that rice had even one-tenth of this flavor.
"I grew it myself."
"You grew it?" Ning Rongrong stared at him in disbelief. A Soul Master like you actually farms?
"What is my Martial Soul?"
"Black Earth. What about it?"
Ning Rongrong answered casually, then realized it the next moment.
"Don't tell me... these were grown using your Martial Soul?"
"That's right."
"How is that possible... What kind of Martial Soul could do something like this?" Ning Rongrong shook her head. She had never seen a Martial Soul like this before.
"You just haven't seen one. The world is vast and full of wonders, let alone Martial Souls."
"That's true."
Ning Rongrong nodded.
"Feel your body again."
"Hm?" Ning Rongrong slowly focused her senses. The next moment, her eyes widened. "Your rice has an effect like this too?"
"Did you think it was just ordinary rice?"
Ning Rongrong stepped forward and pressed both hands directly onto Xiao Ze's shoulders.
Xiao Ze caught a whiff of her delicate fragrance and swallowed. "What are you doing?"
"Can you sell me some?"
"That's all? Since you're pretty, I'll give you some. There are other crops too." Xiao Ze handed Ning Rongrong a bag.
A simp? No, this was a hunter.
"Let me introduce them. You've already experienced the effects of this rice. This wheat can increase Soul Power, and these..."
As Ning Rongrong listened to the effects of each crop, even her breathing grew hurried.
She had never imagined that a land-type Martial Soul could have such effects. It was incredible.
"No wonder your Soul Power is so high."
"Yeah. Back then, my Innate Soul Power was only Level 2." Xiao Ze looked out the window, his gaze filled with nostalgia.
"Innate Level 2, yet you're already Level 28? Your wheat is way too amazing." Ning Rongrong looked as though she wanted to swallow Xiao Ze whole.
She was even considering carrying Xiao Ze back with her.
Then the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would definitely see a tremendous rise in strength.
"Yeah. Remember, don't give these things to Xiao Wu."
"What? Do you have a grudge against her?"
"More or less. It mainly has to do with Tang San's teacher." Xiao Ze nodded.
As for Zhu Zhuqing, it didn't matter. It would be even better if she gave them to her.
Zhu Zhuqing wanted to become stronger, and following him was the best choice.
Xiao Ze was not the type to put on an act. If he wanted someone, he would just take her with him.
"Yu Xiaogang?"
"That's right. Yu Xiaogang has something wrong with his brain. He saw how fast I cultivated and called me an Evil Soul Master." Xiao Ze shrugged.
"Don't bother with him. He's trash who might not even break through Level 30 in his entire life." Ning Rongrong looked down on Yu Xiaogang completely.
She had heard from Dad that this man seemed to like to Eat Soft Rice too.
"I'm leaving." Ning Rongrong wanted to go back and try these Crops.
"Go back. Next time you come in, remember to knock."
"Got it!"
Ning Rongrong skipped back to her room.
"Zhuqing... look, I brought back something good from Xiao Ze."
Ning Rongrong was exceptionally clever—how could she not know what Xiao Ze was thinking?
She had also seen clearly when he had chatted with Zhu Zhuqing before.
He could not give it to Xiao Wu because he simply did not think highly of Xiao Wu.
Her brain really was not too sharp.
As for the other men, Ning Rongrong could not be bothered with them either.
Tang San was a madman, and Dai Mubai was an old pervert.
Only Xiao Ze was decent.
"What is it?" Zhu Zhuqing emerged from her cultivation.
"These can make you stronger."
Hearing that, Zhu Zhuqing became interested, but she found that they were all Crops, just somewhat different from the Common kind.
"These? Food?"
"That's right. Don't underestimate them. Xiao Ze grew all of them using his own Martial Soul. They can strengthen the body, increase Soul Power, and more." Ning Rongrong smiled playfully.
"Really?" Zhu Zhuqing's eyes widened, and her tone was no longer as cold as before.
"Of course it's true. Xiao Ze already processed these, so you can eat them directly. Try some—they're delicious."
Zhu Zhuqing slowly picked up a few grains of wheat and ate them.
In an instant, her Soul Power fluctuated slightly, though the change was so tiny that it was almost impossible to notice.
But they truly were effective.
Zhu Zhuqing's eyes flickered, and her fingers trembled slightly. If she had a large amount of wheat, her strength could rapidly advance.
"Does it work?"
"Mm."
"Remember, don't tell anyone else about this," Ning Rongrong whispered.
Zhu Zhuqing nodded heavily. "Don't worry. But can I buy some from him?"
"I don't know. It's still early, so let's talk about it later. This is enough for us to eat for a while."
Ning Rongrong wanted to buy some too.
"Alright."
The next morning.
Bang bang bang—
The loud knocking woke Xiao Ze.
He opened the door and saw Ning Rongrong standing there.
"I say, Young lady, it's so early in the morning. You're actually up this early?" Xiao Ze was somewhat speechless. This did not seem like Ning Rongrong at all.
"Come on, let's go have a look around. This is an academy, after all. Let's check out the surroundings." Ning Rongrong grabbed Xiao Ze's hand and pulled him outside.
"I need to wash up!"
A quarter-hour later, Xiao Ze and Ning Rongrong were wandering through the village.
They also ran into Tang San and Xiao Wu.
Tang San was slightly surprised to see Xiao Ze together with Ning Rongrong, then thought of Oscar.
Oscar was in for some trouble.
"Ma Hongjun, don't come looking for me again. We're over."
Hearing this, the four of them looked over and saw a somewhat lecherous fat man harassing a young girl.
"Cuihua, haven't I treated you well?"
"You have treated me well, but we're not suited for each other. I can't take it anymore."
"What do you mean, you can't take it anymore? I really don't know what you're thinking. Even if we break up, we have to do it one more time."
Ma Hongjun reached out to grab Cuihua.
Xiao Ze's mouth twitched. So this was Ma Hongjun?
No wonder he was a regular at brothels. What Martial Soul problem?
Even Ma Xiaotao was not this outrageous.
Even if it was a matter of resources, he was still a person, at least.
This Ma Hongjun was a beast through and through.
"Let go!"
Xiao Wu walked over.
Xiao Ze and the other two slowly followed.
"This is between us. Get lost!"
"Watch your mouth!" Ning Rongrong frowned. How could something this disgusting even exist?
"Girl, you're quite pretty. Why don't you keep me company..."
Bang—
