Jujutsu: Eight Magical Skills At The Beginning, Admission Is A Special Level

Chapter 69: Blue Quality, Truly Excellent

People often talk about it the most. Last night, Lu Bei was thinking about Hu San in his bed, and the next morning, Hu San showed up at his door.

His speed was so fast, as if Nine Bamboo Mountain also had spies from the Profound Moon Department.

As Lu Bei pushed open the door and took a step outside, he saw Hu San smiling at him. Hu San raised his hand and greeted politely, "Oh, it's the esteemed member of the Profound Moon Department. What wind blew you here, bringing with you the corrupt practices?"

"You're mistaken. It was clearly the corrupt practices of the Ascension Gate that brought me here. As an official appointed by the court, it is my duty to maintain peace and order. How can I not pay a visit?" Hu San replied.

"I see. No wonder when I was at Great Victory Pass, I would see high-ranking officials entering and leaving Cloud River Tower every night. There is indeed a deeper meaning behind it. I underestimated it," Lu Bei suddenly realized.

"Should I leave then?"

"No, if word gets out that I don't know how to entertain guests, it won't look good. Come in and let's chat a bit more."

Lu Bei gestured for Hu San to enter, and Hu San walked in with a smile. "Brother, I just went to Four Thorns Peak Lofty Brow Faction. The sect leader there has the same name as you. Isn't that strange?"

"It is indeed strange. I won't hide it from you, brother. I was quite troubled by this matter. Yesterday, on a whim, I changed my name to Lu Bei."

"That won't do. Names are given by one's parents. How can you just change it? Brother, don't worry, I'll help you out. I'll lead my troops to attack Lofty Brow Faction. After Ding Lei, the sect leader, finishes his business, we can take action."

"Let's wait for a while. Ding Lei just gave me some money yesterday. Let him finish his business first, and then we can attack."

"Alright, let's wait then."

As they walked and talked, they passed through the front yard. Hu San noticed a row of shops and shelves and was puzzled.

Three Pristine Peak, this broken mountain, has such weak spiritual energy that even a pig would starve to death after living here for ten years. What kind of business can be done here?

Hu San didn't bother asking Lu Bei why he had chosen this place. They entered the backyard and saw She Xuan stretching and exercising. Hu San's eyes lit up and he made a remark, "Brother Lu, you really saved your lady. You two are inseparable, a touching story. It's hard to end this relationship without getting married."

"It's almost time. We are deeply in love, and we will be getting married soon. You must send us a wedding invitation. If you can't come, it's fine, but you must send a red envelope." Lu Bei laughed and glanced at She Xuan, indicating that they should split the red envelope in half.

She Xuan rolled her eyes and stopped exercising. She turned around and slammed the door shut.

Who does he think he is? He wants to write our names on a red paper? Hmph, dream on!

Even a fake marriage won't work!

"Brother, judging by my sister's attitude, it seems like the wedding date is far off."

"It's not a problem. It won't affect receiving red envelopes."

Lu Bei brought Hu San to a tree and they sat around a stone table. Lu Bei was known for being straightforward and not good at being subtle. He reached out and touched Hu San's chest.

Based on his analysis of the "Illusionary Form" skill, it could create things that didn't originally exist, but it couldn't hide things that already existed. In other words, Hu San was a man, not a woman disguised as a man.

Of course, there was also the possibility that the "Illusionary Form" skill he stole was limited by the level of the "Blood Nest" skill at that time, and its functionality was incomplete. At full level, it might have a different transformation mode.

But no matter what, he had already touched him, so he wouldn't lose out.

"You're still so impatient, brother."

Hu San chuckled and suddenly noticed something, surprised, he said, "Impressive, you've reached the Foundation Establishment stage?"

"Yes, I received a gift of spiritual energy in the Dragon Trap Formation and made great progress. I consolidated my cultivation for half a month and naturally entered the Core Incubation Realm," Lu Bei casually replied, his attitude instantly becoming cold when he realized he couldn't touch the bonus.

In a nearby room, She Xuan clenched her lips and sat down cross-legged to cultivate in silence, having eavesdropped on their conversation.

"Brother, you have such good aptitude. Unlike me, even though I also gained benefits from the Dragon Trap Formation, I still have to wait for several months to break through to the Innate Realm," Hu San sighed and took out a brocade box from his sleeve, placing it on the table in front of Lu Bei.

Such a small box, is he giving alms?

Lu Bei opened the brocade box and saw a plain black Universe Ring. His furrowed brow slowly relaxed.

Not bad, it's a good treasure.

With Hu San's cunning nature, Lu Bei was convinced that this Universe Ring had a backdoor. Even so, he was tempted. The security and encryption level of the Universe Ring far surpassed that of the Universe Bag. It wouldn't be wise to guard the Universe Bag to the death. What if it were to be lost one day...

Lu Bei couldn't sleep or eat well, worrying about it.

Cheap NPCs couldn't be trusted, and cheap players wouldn't die peacefully.

So what if there's a backdoor? He would use it for now. When he could refine a Universe Ring himself in the future, he would sell this black one to Ding Lei of the Lofty Brow Faction and make a profit.

The black Universe Ring hadn't been bound yet. Lu Bei took out a pure white straight knife and unsheathed it, carefully examining it for a while.

The size of the blade was the same as the Dark Gold Straight Knife, with only a difference in color. It was most likely forged based on the Dark Gold Straight Knife. Due to the material, it had a good weight and texture, which suited Lu Bei's current strength attribute. As for its sharpness...

He brushed his palm against it, and a drop of crimson fell onto the Universe Ring.

Blue quality, truly excellent.

"Good knife."

Lu Bei sheathed the knife and took out a bundle of silver bills from the Universe Ring. His heart skipped a beat, "So much?"

Without exaggeration or inflating prices, this bundle of silver bills was enough for his cousin to spend lavishly. He could make ten or so trips a year to select the most satisfactory place to serve as an official.

Considering Wei Mao's high aspirations and clean conduct, he wouldn't accept money willingly. Offering money would only result in rejection and scolding, so he didn't want to make things difficult for himself.

Next time, when borrowing the lock armor again, he would make sure to give him a round number.

"This is considered a lot? Hehe, little brother, let me tell you, the treatment in our Profound Moon Department is really good. Just take on any idle position, and you'll receive a large sum of silver every year. As a green guard like me, I can choose to work or not, and during festivals, I even get rewarded for leading troops to raid homes."

Seeing that the fish had taken the bait, Hu San couldn't help but be delighted, giving Lu Bei a meaningful look, "How to raid, how much to raid, Brother Lu, you're an understanding person, I won't spell it out."

What the hell, stop saying 'us' all the time, that's your Profound Moon Department!

Lu Bei felt disdain in his heart and nodded seriously, "Our Profound Moon Department only gives out this much bonus... Something's not right, help me check if there are any thieves deducting my benefits."

"What? Didn't you just say it was a lot?"

"I meant a lot of silver bills."

Lu Bei had an indifferent attitude towards fame and fortune and said naturally, "As cultivators, we don't consider money as worthless as dung, but we do see it as something outside of ourselves. What use is having a lot of silver bills? Can it buy cultivation? Can it buy Law Treasures? Can it buy Nine Transformation Nurturing Pills?"

Hu San rolled his eyes and didn't want to listen to Lu Bei's nonsense. Since the fish had taken the bait, his mission for today was considered complete. He arched his hand and was about to leave.

Just as he took a few steps, he came face to face with Hu Ma, who was walking with a teapot in hand. He instinctively stopped and circled around her twice, clicking his tongue, "Little brother, you're quite good at playing! But let me say this first, raising demonic pets for pleasure is against the law. According to the Wu Zhou Code, the most severe punishment is exile to the border!"

"Nonsense, what do you take me for?"

Lu Bei pursed his lips and pulled Hu Ma, who had a curious look on her face, and rubbed her head, standing up a strand of hair, "Hu Ma is my second-generation disciple of the Ascension Gate. She's my master's younger sister, and she has a household registration in Great Victory Pass as proof."

"Where is it?"

"I was just about to go out to handle it, but you stopped me." Lu Bei clapped his hands, feeling helpless.

This time he wasn't lying. To register Hu Ma, he didn't have to make a long trip to Great Victory Pass, and she didn't bother to deal with it either. He just needed to find Huang Guan, the leader of the Great Expansion Peak, and the Nine Bamboo Mountain series would register Hu Ma and issue her a household registration certificate.

Hu San was quite dissatisfied with Lu Bei's answer and frowned, "Little brother, if it were any other demonic creature, I would turn a blind eye and pretend I didn't see it. But a fox demon is different. If my mother finds out that I have a friend who raises a fox demon, she will definitely skin me alive."

You motherf...

Lu Bei narrowed his eyes and probed, "May I ask what relationship you have with Hu Er, the capital's Hu?"

Before transmigrating, Lu Bei had a higher rank and had been doing missions in the capital of Wu Zhou. He was quite familiar with Hu Er's name.

Although he hadn't met her in person, there were screenshots of high-level players on the official forum. She was beautiful and had a heavenly appearance. She was even called the "Consort of the Emperor and Grand Tutor" alongside the Emperor's teacher.

Embarrassingly, Lu Bei had criticized her before.

It was on a stormy night when he was deceived by enthusiastic netizens. With a slight tremor of his little hand, he accidentally entered a magical website.

"Ah, my mother's reputation has spread to Jade Chime District?" Hu San exclaimed in disbelief.

"May I ask what business your mother does?"

Lu Bei raised an eyebrow, not meaning anything else, just genuinely curious.

On the official forum, the popularity of the Consort Duo was high. It wasn't just him; many people couldn't understand why Hu Er, a merchant, was on par with the Emperor's teacher.

If we're talking about appearance overshadowing others, in the capital's red-light district, there were many beautiful women with exceptional talents. There were many influential people who worshipped them, but they couldn't bring Hu Er down from the top of the list...

It was really absurd!

Moreover, Lu Bei remembered clearly that there was a note from a high-level player on the official website stating that Hu Er lived alone and had no children. She was the richest woman in the capital.

Oh, this question was simple. Without his interference, Hu San would most likely have died in the Dragon Trap Formation. Without a burden, Hu Er naturally became single.

"I can't say. If little brother wants to know, come and stay at the Profound Moon Department for a while and show me your performance. If you can pass my test, I will personally introduce you to my mother." Hu San formally extended an invitation.

Lu Bei: "..."

Pardon his dirty thoughts, but why did this sound strange?
