Seriously Tricking Mu Ningxue

"To be honest, I came to the Imperial Capital specifically for you."

Mu Ningxue couldn't quite understand why Chen Lang was so persistent about her.

There surely weren't many people in the world who could rival her in appearance. Given Chen Lang's status, what kind of beauty couldn't he have?

"Your beauty is one aspect, but more importantly, it's because of your innate talent, which is similar to mine."

Before coming, Chen Lang had already figured out how to trick... no, persuade Mu Ningxue.

"Our similar innate talent?"

Mu Ningxue shook her head. She didn't have the ability of One Thought Star Track; mastering star tracks had taken her nearly eight months. "I'm just a natural Spirit Seed..."

"I know you have a Companion Spirit Seed. My other innate talent is the same as yours," Chen Lang said, manifesting a wisp of black Electric Current in his hand.

"Zzzzzz..."

The dense black Electric Current, both in color and the fluctuations it emitted, confirmed it was a Spirit Seed.

Moreover, it was one of the extremely powerful kinds!

Even his Spirit Ice seemed inferior in front of this black Lightning.

Perhaps only a difference of 0.1, but that was still a significant gap.

Mu Ningxue remained silent, watching Chen Lang quietly, waiting for him to continue.

"I have a way to make your Companion Spirit Seed continuously grow stronger, even allowing it to become a Soul Seed and reach even higher stages in the future."

Chen Lang didn't mention Heaven Seed because the concept of Heaven Seed didn't exist yet.

Upon hearing Chen Lang's words, Mu Ningxue was slightly surprised!

Her Spirit Seed could actually be promoted?

"I've never heard of a Spirit Seed being able to be promoted to a Soul Seed."

Chen Lang continued to earnestly deceive her, "There are many things in this world that people believe are impossible, but it's simply that those who know them are unwilling to share."

"Besides, do you think I have any reason to lie to you?" Chen Lang asked, looking at Mu Ningxue with eyes full of 'sincerity,' his face unblinking.

Spirit Seeds indeed couldn't be promoted to Soul Seeds.

But... Mu Ningxue wasn't just a natural Spirit Seed; she had fused with fragments of the Ice Crystal Brake Bow since childhood. With the two combined, she also possessed a special physique, the Spirit Ice Physique!

However, it was precisely because of this special physique that she suffered the backlash of the Ice Demon. While it spurred her growth, it also made her stronger step by step, and the Spirit Seed within her body would also strengthen and evolve with her cultivation.

If not for his foreknowledge, even some old monsters, let alone Chen Lang, wouldn't know about this.

She herself would certainly not know, as many people had Companion Spirit Seeds, but not all of their Spirit Seeds could change with the growth of their cultivation.

Mu Ningxue originally didn't want anything to do with Chen Lang.

Because, fundamentally, there would be no outcome.

Yet, what Chen Lang was saying now genuinely made her a little tempted... Having witnessed Chen Lang's strength, she naturally wanted to become stronger.

"But... I don't think your Family would allow us to have any outcome." Although Mu Ningxue was tempted, she truly didn't want to get entangled with a great aristocratic clan like the Chen Clan.

Their small Mu Clan Branch could easily be annihilated if they weren't careful.

Chen Lang's mouth twitched. This woman was already quite substantial, yet she still had brains!

"Indeed, I can't give you what you want right now. But you can follow me for now. Within ten years at most, I will give you everything you deserve."

Sensing Mu Ningxue's cold emotional fluctuations, Chen Lang continued, "Your Family's primary concern is likely to have a stronger backing. The person you marry in the future will definitely benefit your Family, and I only need to make a small move to make your father's dream come true. So, what's wrong with following me?"

Listening to Chen Lang, Mu Ningxue fell silent. Although Chen Lang spoke very directly, it seemed to make sense...

Chen Lang was indeed still a young master at the moment.

But with his status, a casual effort would be more than enough to make her Family prosperous.

"I... I need to ask my father's opinion."

Mu Ningxue was a bit lost at this moment. She admitted she was tempted, not by Chen Lang himself, but by the many temptations he offered.

Of course, this was also something Mu Ningxue had long anticipated facing.

As she said before, for her, it didn't matter who her partner was.

She just wanted to repay the investment her father, Mu Zhuoyun, had made in her over the years while she grew stronger. However, following him and marrying him were two entirely different matters.

Seeing that there was hope, Chen Lang seized the opportunity and said, "The holiday is coming soon, isn't it? Why don't I go with you?"

At this moment, even Mu Ningxue, who had always maintained a calm expression, showed a significant change: "You're going to my home??"

"If I don't go, your father might think you've been deceived."

Chen Lang paused and then specifically reminded her, "Uh... also, you cannot tell a third person about what I just told you. It's not good for you."

He didn't actually have that ability.

To put it bluntly, Mu Ningxue relied on her special physique, while his words were entirely due to the uniqueness of Black Annihilation.

"Let me think..."

Mu Ningxue did not agree immediately.

No matter what, it was still a bit too fast.

No matter how eloquently Chen Lang spoke, his intentions were impure. She naturally couldn't believe everything he said.

"Okay."

This time, Chen Lang didn't pester her further.

As for him making decisions on his own, that was even less of an issue.

If he wasn't marrying her, but just keeping her by his side, his old man definitely wouldn't care too much.

What kind of Second Generation Ancestor didn't have a few canaries? Especially one who was such a gifted direct descendant.

Sharing some resources with the Mu Family?

That was an even more trivial matter for Chen Lang. For a small clan in a small city, a clan with only Intermediate Mages, the Chen Clan could easily help them with just a sprinkle of effort.

Mu Zhuoyun was quite ambitious, but Chen Lang believed that in front of a behemoth like the Chen Clan, his small Mu Family would understand contentment.

Having been accustomed to being the county magistrate in a small city, he naturally understood that his Mu Family was like ants before the Chen Clan, just as commoners in Bocheng were to him.

Finally... helping Mu Ningxue improve her Spirit Seed's level?

That would be even simpler. He just had to wait for the Bocheng Catastrophe to arrive, and once the Mu Clan members came into contact with her, he could wait to reap the rewards.

Although it felt a bit like freeloading, and he might be discovered by Mu Ningxue 'in the future', if Chen Lang couldn't tame her by then, what face would he have to continue wandering the martial world
