Wood Attribute Spiritual Energy

To err on the safe side, Mu Yu didn’t bring Xiaoshuai with him. Additionally, he hadn’t grasped Xiaoshuai’s background; attracting lightning strike was no ordinary feat, after all.

“Please have a seat.”

Mu Yu ignored Xiaohua’s snort and sat down. “You can just call me Mu Yu, Elder.”

“The issues you pointed out yesterday were correct. I suppose you taught it, and it learnt from you?”

Xiaohua suddenly chimed in. “When the owner is uncultured, his spirit beast won’t be any better.”

Mu Yu: Little Flower needs his mouth fixed.

“I apologise for sticking my nose where it did not belong, Elder. It was merely a guess on my part, but it heard me and blurted it. Please forgive us,” Mu Yu expressed.

“Not at all. I’m not surprised you identified my issues knowing your body type.”

Body... type? My wood control ability? I never revealed it, did I?

Mu Yu kept his emotions in check and queried, “Please forgive my ignorance. Could I trouble you to elaborate on what you mean?”

“You possess prominent wood qi, indicating you have a wood attribute body type. Were you not aware?”

“You can’t do it at your current level. If you transfer your spiritual energy to me, my spiritual energy will likely expel it, thereby harming me. I wished to talk to you to establish a friendship with you and my two disappointing disciples. Xiaohua and Cai Lie both possess fantastic potential for alchemy; however, they cannot escape the fate I am facing. For that reason, I wish to implore you to give them a hand when their cultivation comes to a halt.”

“Shifu, let Junior Brother Cai Lie have the privilege. I do not feel safe entrusting my wellbeing in his hands,” Xiaohua blurted.

Unless Xiaohua did something about his imperious attitude, Mu Yu had no intention of helping the former. Even if he could help them, he had his own stipulations before revealing his abilities. Being treated as a monster wasn’t fun. Mu Yu didn’t detect much wood residue in Cai Lie since the latter hadn’t produced many pills. Xiaohua only had a tad more than Cai Lie.

“May I trouble you to explain why I cannot become an alchemist?” queried Mu Yu.

Xiaohua verbally lasted, “It’s not as if cats and dogs can will themselves into alchemists.”

For crying out loud, all this just because I didn’t let you have a damn seat?

“Xiaohua, manners?” Alchemist Yao gave Xiaohua a frown. He turned back to Mu Yu and went on. “You lack fire attribute, meaning you can’t control fire. That makes it impossible for you to advance as an alchemist. Don’t perceive it as a negative, though. Alchemists may enjoy prestige, but if you can reach Body Severing or Spirit Severing Realm, alchemists will ingratiate themselves with you.”

Xiaohua: Pfft, you should remind him to stay woke. I won’t be lowering my head to him. If we had cultivators helping us, people would be kissing up to us.

“What if I can find a way to help you extract the wood residue?” Mu Yu didn’t have anyone backing him at Third Heaven Palace. He, therefore, wanted to do Alchemist Yao a favour. In turn, Alchemist Yao would back him.

“You have a way already?”

“My shifu’s courtesy isn’t your ticket to peddle tripe. Think before you flap your gums,” Xiaohua ridiculed.

Mu Yu tugged up a corner of his lips.
