Yang Jun sent a message to Xiao Mu, inviting him to the Great Tang Ruins with important information to share.

Xiao Mu put away his cellphone, opened the door, and went out.

Qi Rong sat on the sofa in the living room, her head lowered, heavy with unknown thoughts.

Hearing the sound of the door, she turned her head, glanced at Xiao Mu, showing fatigue and weakness, and suddenly said, "I deliberately asked someone to inquire about Qu Ling, what you said is true, thank you."

She gazed deeply at Xiao Mu, apologetically said, "Also, you were right about everything, I shouldn't have been mad at you, I'm sorry!"

Xiao Mu was a bit surprised; it was the first time he had seen weakness in her, and he casually said, "You've realized the drawbacks of cultivating the Divine Thought Combination Method?"

Qi Rong nodded lightly, her expression desolate, struggling, yet suddenly resolute, "So, I've decided, I still want to cultivate the Divine Thought Combination Method."

Xiao Mu involuntarily frowned, even more surprised, "Despite knowing the cultivation of the Divine Thought Combination Method has great harm, you still choose to cultivate it?"

Qi Rong was silent for a moment, suddenly said melancholy, "I come from an ordinary background, my family is not wealthy, no connections, and no strong support, all I can rely on is myself."

"But, my aptitude is average, and my strength is low, if I rely solely on myself, maybe I will never be able to enter the True Realm in my lifetime."

"Cultivating the Divine Thought Combination Method indeed has harm, but I have checked, Qu Ling's situation is an exception, usually, people who cultivate the Divine Thought Combination Method, even if they sacrifice part of their divine sense, won't suffer severe damage."

"Liu Yan is reprehensible, but this... maybe this is my only chance."

Saying this, she gave Xiao Mu another deep look, sighed softly, "Maybe you look down on me, think I'm unscrupulous to enter the True Realm, but this is really my only way, I don't want to be a mortal all my life, so I have to enter the True Realm."

No, I won't look down on you, I don't care about your choices at all.

Xiao Mu responded in his heart, casually said, "Actually, entering the True Realm may not be as good as you imagine."

"Compared to the Mortal Realm, at least... at least it offers longevity, right?" Qi Rong was unsure.

"Haha! Longevity? Perhaps! But the True Realm also has its troubles."

Xiao Mu smiled faintly, "It's strange, why are you telling me this? You should know that I don't care about your affairs. Besides, our relationship isn't good; you're always against me."

Qi Rong was stunned by these words, dumbfounded for a moment, then felt slightly embarrassed and apologized to Xiao Mu again. She sighed lightly and added, "Maybe... maybe I just wanted to talk to someone and you happened to be the only one here."

"Okay!"

Xiao Mu suddenly smiled, "Since that's the case, why don't we play a game?"

"A game?" Qi Rong looked at Xiao Mu with confusion.

"Yes, a game, or rather a test." Xiao Mu's smile was faint but unwavering, "You just said you would give up anything to enter the True Realm?"

"Ah... this..." Qi Rong hesitated before nodding reluctantly.

"Very good!"

Xiao Mu's smile grew broader, "I'll give you a chance to enter the True Realm, and in return, you offer yourself to me, how about it?"

"You... what did you say?" Qi Rong blushed with embarrassment, staring at Xiao Mu with anger in her eyes, "How can you talk to me like that?"

Xiao Mu locked his gaze on Qi Rong's face, stared intently, and said with a smile, "Didn't you claim you would pay any price? Then why not offer yourself for the chance to enter the True Realm?"

"I... I'm just talking about hard work and sacrifice, I never said to give up my dignity." Qi Rong shouted at Xiao Mu, "I want to enter the True Realm, but not at the cost of everything. Besides, you're at the Fourth Stage of Mortal Realm, not even as high as my level, how can you offer me the opportunity to enter the True Realm."

I can't provide you with an opportunity to enter the True Realm?

Xiao Mu smiled slightly, "Seems like you don't know me well. My level might be low, but I can easily get a chance to enter the True Realm."

"Do you know Director Du Wenzhen from the Great Tang Ruins errands?"

Qi Rong was stunned, "You know Du Wenzhen?"

"I just asked if you know him?" Xiao Mu suddenly used a stern tone.

"I know him, he doesn't know me." Qi Rong was startled by Xiao Mu's sudden severity and responded instinctively.

"Good, as long as you know him."

Xiao Mu said, and suddenly took out his cellphone, opened the chat software, and video-called Du Wenzhen, "Ahem, Director Du, how about giving me a True Realm qualification?"

"Ah~, you... old..."

Du Wenzhen, who was about to call Xiao Mu, immediately stopped himself and agreed, "Sure, if you want one, there's definitely one for you. Is one enough?"

"Enough!"

Xiao Mu replied coldly.

With that, he took out his cellphone, showed the screen to Qi Rong, and deliberately covered the cameras with his finger, "This is Director Du Wenzhen from the errands of the Great Tang Ruins. Since you know him, you should recognize that he's a Perfected, right?"

"Ah... this..."

Qi Rong's face changed, her body trembled violently. Of course, she could recognize the person on Xiao Mu's cellphone screen as Du Wenzhen, a significant figure she'd never been able to meet.
