After hearing Qin Mu's two suggestions, Duobao gave a bitter smile, as if someone had doused him with a bucket of cold water.
"Senior Brother."
"These two methods you mentioned..."
"If I had the ability to do either of them, I wouldn't have had to wait all this time."
Duobao's face fell, his heart filled with bitterness and helplessness.
After all these years, he had accumulated little Merit, nowhere near enough to support his Attaining Sagehood.
As for creating a new race like Minghe and Nuwa...
That was even more difficult.
Seeing how dejected Duobao looked, Qin Mu couldn't help but smile. He reached out and patted Duobao on the shoulder reassuringly.
"All right."
"Don't be in such a hurry."
"If you can't do it yet, that just means the time for you to become a Saint hasn't come."
"When the time comes, becoming a Saint won't be difficult for you."
"When that day comes, I'll find a way to help you!"
After hearing Qin Mu's words, Duobao's eyes lit up.
"Really?"
"Senior Brother, you'll help me?"
Although he didn't know whether Qin Mu had helped Zhenyuanzi become a Saint, Minghe's Attaining the Dao of Primordial Chaos and becoming a Saint of the Underworld had surely involved Qin Mu's assistance.
After all, besides Empress Pingxin, only Qin Mu, the Lord of the Underworld, could command the Underworld's immense Fortune.
"Of course."
"We're fellow disciples. Have I ever lied to you?"
Qin Mu replied calmly.
Hearing this, Duobao was overcome with excitement.
He had no doubt in Qin Mu's words.
If Qin Mu said that he would become a Saint someday, then he surely would.
"Thank you, Senior Brother!"
"I'll wait patiently and work hard at my cultivation."
Duobao bowed to Qin Mu.
Qin Mu nodded, then left without lingering, heading
