Chapter 53 An Accidental Encounter with Ning Rongrong
The absorption of the third spirit ring went smoothly, and Xie Mo successfully unlocked the new generation of Piggy Hero and gained his abilities. However, he still needs time to master them. Xie Mo is not short of time now, after all, he is still a child, and time is always long.
The purpose of this trip to Sunset Forest has been achieved. Whether it's Dugu Bo at full power, Dugu Yan with her evolved martial spirit, or Xie Mo who unlocked new Piggy Hero abilities, everyone has gained something satisfying.
Xie Mo did not pick all the immortal herbs in the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire. He didn't need them now, so it wouldn't hurt to pick them when he needed them.
Compared to these minor issues, Xie Mo felt the immense power surging within him, and an excited expression appeared on his face.
After measurement, Xie Mo's soul power has reached level thirty-eight, and under the effect of the Primordial Immortal Herb, the soul power of ordinary Soul Masters is actually not as good as his.
The two immortal herbs, along with two thousand-year soul rings, raised his soul power by more than twenty levels, bringing him to within a step of becoming a Soul Master.
However, some of the medicinal power of the immortal herb was still hidden and had not been fully digested, so Xie Mo did not force himself to eat another immortal herb. Cultivation was just a means to achieve a goal. Xie Mo felt that it was not worth it to cultivate for the sake of cultivation.
Moreover, his principle is to be cautious. Who knows if the medicinal effects of the immortal herb will cause a conflict that slows down digestion? Based on the current digestion progress, Xie Mo estimates that it will take at most a month or so before he can eat another one.
Time flies, there's no need to be so eager for that little bit of power. Besides, the male god also thinks this is the right thing to do. Even though he's a hardworking little pig, he still needs to take a break.
Yes, that's what he said.
With nothing else to do, the three of them finally returned from the Sunset Forest, stepping back into modern society from the primeval forest.
Dugu Bo walked ahead with a cheerful smile, while Xie Mo and Dugu Yan held hands behind him, looking around. They hadn't had any city snacks in a long time. After greeting Dugu Bo, they left the lonely old man behind and went off to enjoy themselves.
Dugu Bo wasn't angry. He watched the two figures disappear into the distance and walked happily toward the Ye family, intending to ask his good brother for a cup of tea.
"Hey, Xiao Mo, do you want some candied hawthorn?"
The vendor's calls for candied hawthorns lingered in their ears, and Dugu Yan couldn't help but feel her mouth water as she thought of that sweet and sour taste.
"Of course, it's been a long time since I've had this."
Xie Mo couldn't help but lick his lips. The candied hawthorns in Douluo Continent were not much different from those in his previous life, except that the sale and purchase were more like when he was a child. Many candied hawthorns were stuck on a haystack, a wooden stick was inserted into the haystack, and then they were carried on his shoulders to sell on the street.
"Two skewers of candied hawthorn, please."
Xie Mo ran up to the hawker and prepared to buy two.
"Young master, a string of five copper soul coins, would you like to choose or..."
The vendor's respectful voice drifted over, and although the boy was young, the air of nobility he exuded was undeniable.
"for you."
Xie Mo tossed down ten copper soul coins, then picked out two of the cleanest strings to take back and share with Dugu Yan.
"Please wait, young master."
The vendor's respectful voice came from behind. Although prices in Tiandou City were much higher than usual, the cost of living was also much higher. Moreover, there were many nobles in the city, and one might be unlucky enough to run into one one day. Life was not easy, so one had no choice but to bow down and be humble.
Xie Mo licked the candied hawthorn, the transparent rock sugar on the surface was sweet, and he could only sigh inwardly at the vendor.
Without the help of the male god, he might have just become a street vendor in the future. As for changing the entire continent, that can wait until he rules the country.
"It's so slow."
Dugu Yan casually complained, pinched Xie Mo's cheek, and suddenly realized that something was wrong. She then realized that he seemed to be developing a little too fast and was almost as tall as her.
"You've grown up."
Dugu Yan was deeply moved. The other party had saved her family's lives, and she had no way to repay him, so she could only offer herself to him.
For some reason, Xie Mo's face turned rosy again. He didn't pay much attention, assuming it was just because the sun was too strong that day.
"Soul power promotes development, that's normal."
Xie Mo bit into a candied hawthorn, and the sweet and sour taste burst in his mouth.
It's pretty good, worth the price, and not the kind of hawthorn that's so sour it makes your teeth ache.
"Shall we find a cool place to go?"
Xie Mo casually suggested, and the other person's face seemed to be steaming.
"Let's go."
Dugu Yan agreed and walked with Xie Mo, swaying her hips as they went. However, Xie Mo's body was slightly stiff, so he had to chew on candied hawthorns to distract himself.
Mmm, it smells so good.
"Hello!"
A sweet voice came from behind them, but the two didn't pay it any mind. They continued eating their candied hawthorns, glancing at the signs on the street, and preparing to find a teahouse to rest.
"Stop right there!"
It was the same voice, but now it carried a hint of urgency and impatience, yet the two remained unresponsive.
One of the truths of the world is that you don't attract as much attention as you think, and the world doesn't revolve around you. The two of them had just finished washing up and came out to play, too lazy to care about so many things.
"Xie Mo! Wait for me!"
The voice behind me sounded somewhat exasperated, but it wasn't the burning rage I had imagined.
"Of the seven treasures, the first is strength."
The voice behind her turned into a delicate shout, and the footsteps became heavier, but noticeably faster.
The footsteps grew closer and closer until a short, dwarf figure appeared in front of them, at which point they stopped.
"It really was you guys!"
Ning Rongrong raised her head slightly to look at Xie Mo and Dugu Yan, her bright eyes filled with great confusion.
Xie Mo looked behind him and, sure enough, there were several middle-aged men dressed in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School uniforms bowing to them with a wry smile on their faces. They dared not interfere with the affairs of this young master and could only try to stop him before something went wrong.
Xie Mo nodded slightly to the group, then turned his head and handed the stick with the last candied hawthorn to Ning Rongrong.
"There's one more, do you want some?"
Dugu Yan opened her mouth slightly. Did the other person like this flavor? But she was already an older sister and couldn't turn into a loli anymore.
Ning Rongrong's eyes widened; her eyesight was excellent, and she could even see the drool glistening slightly in the sunlight.
"You can eat it yourself. I'll buy it myself."
With a look of disgust on her face, Ning Rongrong waved her still slightly chubby arm, her fair and delicate arm shining brightly in the sunlight.
"Hey you, go buy me a candied hawthorn skewer, for the whole family."
Ning Rongrong pointed to one of the people behind her and gave the order. The person pointed to visibly breathed a sigh of relief and turned around to chase after the vendor. Compared to being implicated by this little rascal, going to buy things was already a much better job.
"Oh right, I almost forgot."
Ning Rongrong's face showed a look of sudden realization, and she clenched her right fist and punched her left palm.
