Chapter 17 - Chapter 17: God-Tier Ability, Level One Perception (2/10)

Xu Mu watched Ye Yu start eating and asked with a smile, "How does it taste?"

"Delicious!"

Ye Yu nodded emphatically.

It was indeed too delicious; she had never eaten such tasty food in her life.

Before the Ye family was destroyed, she was also considered a young lady of the family.

They had a dedicated chef to cook for her.

But their skills were far inferior to Xu Mu's.

Not to mention, after the Ye family's incident, Ye Yu usually ate meals from the school cafeteria.

On Fridays when she came home, it was her sister's home-cooked dishes.

Unconsciously, Ye Yu's eyes became a little red.

"What's wrong?" Xu Mu looked up and asked.

"It's too delicious, boo hoo!"

Ye Yu wiped her tears with her sleeve, and a few black characters appeared above her head.

[Favorability +10]

Xu Mu smiled. Ye Yu's Favorability had finally moved.

It wasn't in vain that he put in so much effort.

One must know that up until now, Ye Yu was the one who hated him the most.

After they had eaten their fill, Ye Yu rubbed her little belly, slumping onto the sofa.

Suddenly, she felt her behavior was a bit indecent. What if Xu Mu slapped her again?

Thinking of this, she immediately tensed her body and sat up.

"What? So unfamiliar even in your own home?"

Xu Mu walked over and placed his hand on Ye Yu's shoulder.

Ye Yu's body instinctively trembled, thinking Xu Mu was going to hit her again.

But Xu Mu merely gave a gentle push, letting her slump back onto the sofa.

[Favorability +10]

Xu Mu smiled, then sat down beside her.

Ye Tong had also finished clearing the dishes by now. Looking at the two sitting side by side on the sofa, she felt unusually happy.

Thinking about it carefully, it seemed this was the first time she had felt so relaxed and joyful since the Ye family incident.

"Didn't you say you wanted to do something of your own? Have you thought about it yet?"

Xu Mu watched Ye Tong walk out and asked with a smile.

"Not yet."

Ye Tong lowered her head a little shyly.

She had spent the whole day talking about Xu Mu with her sister, leaving no time to think.

"No rush, you still have a fallback. If it really doesn't work out, you can just work at our family company."

Xu Mu stood up and walked towards Ye Tong.

Ye Tong nodded. She noticed Xu Mu taking her hand, and she instinctively trembled.

Immediately, her face turned crimson.

"Ye Yu, we're going back to our room to sleep. You should rest early too."

Xu Mu pulled Ye Tong and headed upstairs.

"No, it's only eight o'clock!"

Ye Yu looked at the time on her phone.

"What do you know? Early to bed, early to rise makes for a healthy body."

Xu Mu glanced at Ye Yu. "You should also rest early."

What's wrong with eight o'clock?

Now that Xu Mu's body had improved so much, he had inexhaustible energy; it would be a pity not to use it.

...

Today, Xu Mu studied "The Peach Blossom Spring," he had always been a history enthusiast.

When the forest ended at the river's source, they came upon a mountain, in which there was a small opening, seeming to admit light.

At first, it was extremely narrow, just wide enough for a person to pass. After proceeding for a few dozen steps, it suddenly opened out into a wide and bright place.

(Roughly: When the forest ended at the water's source, a mountain was found. The mountain had a small opening, as if there was light. It was initially very narrow, barely enough for a person to pass through, but after walking a few dozen steps, it suddenly opened up.)

...

Ye Yu slept next door, looking at her phone. As time passed, she realized she had wronged Xu Mu.

Her body showed no changes; clearly, she had overthought things. Xu Mu hadn't given them any medicine at all.

She pulled the blanket over her head and slowly drifted into sleep.

...

The next morning.

Xu Mu opened his eyes. Ye Tong, like yesterday, was still sleeping soundly beside him.

He opened the system and saw that he could now do a ten-draws.

This was thanks to Ye Tong and Su Yaya.

He urgently needed to improve himself. Besides the powerful Dragon King, that soldier king would likely cause trouble soon.

Clicking the roulette wheel, Xu Mu directly performed a ten-draws.

[Ding! Host has triggered a hidden rule: ten consecutive draws grants one bonus draw!]

Xu Mu was surprised to see this. It seemed the system had quite a few hidden features.

He could explore them in the future.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining 20 attribute points!]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining 10 attribute points!]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining 20 attribute points!]

...

Xu Mu now understood. Attribute points were probably the minimum reward, the most basic.

If no good items were drawn, the system would provide attribute points.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining one Desert Eagle!]

What the heck?!

Xu Mu's heart jumped in surprise. What was this?

He could actually draw real-world items.

...

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the title of Marksman!]

"Alright, alright!"

Xu Mu murmured inwardly upon seeing this.

Living in a country where guns were prohibited, Xu Mu had never used one before.

But he had heard of this gun's reputation. It was heavy and had a strong recoil, making it unsuitable for the battlefield.

Within seven steps, he could be fast and accurate.

But beyond seven steps, he had no confidence.

Now that he had this title, he had no more worries.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining a God-Tier Ability, Level One Perception!]

Xu Mu saw this and sat up straight in bed.

A God-Tier Ability – this was his first time drawing one.

However, he didn't immediately examine it, waiting to see if there were any other good items.

But in the end, he was disappointed.

Besides these three items, the remaining eight draws were all attribute points.

He ignored the attribute points and first checked the description of the God-Tier Ability.

Looking at the text, Xu Mu was stunned. As expected of a God-Tier Ability, even at Level One, it was incredibly powerful.

This ability allowed him to sense living beings within a hundred-meter radius.

At this moment, he closed his eyes and sensed, clearly detecting Ye Yu still sleeping in the adjacent room.

However, this perception was like infrared sensing.

He could only see shapes, not specific appearances.

But even so, it was ridiculously strong.

Xu Mu continued to perceive, expanding the range to its maximum. His pupils suddenly contracted.

He quickly got up, walked to the table next to the bedroom, and opened his laptop.

Here, he could view surveillance in real-time.

Through the camera outside the villa's courtyard, he indeed discovered a woman in casual clothes, wearing a mask and a baseball cap, standing at the villa's ornate iron gate, recording a video.

After finishing the video, the person put her phone in her pocket and left very naturally.

Xu Mu didn't know who it was, but two possibilities immediately came to mind.

The first, naturally, was someone sent by Lin Yan.

He had repeatedly humiliated Lin Yan, who would naturally seek revenge.

The second was Meng Wanyue.

She was there to investigate the Dragon King's sister and sister.

If it was Meng Wanyue, then that was truly a close call.

Thankfully, he had already dismantled the dog House.

If she had filmed the Dragon King's sister living in a dog House, the Dragon King might descend in a few days.

He took a deep breath. This God-Tier Ability was indeed formidable.

After getting dressed, Xu Mu went to the bathroom. He needed to check the Desert Eagle.

Taking it out in front of Ye Tong, if she happened to wake up, who knows what she would think of him.

Opening the item slot, there was indeed a silver Desert Eagle.

Xu Mu skillfully opened the magazine and was instantly dumbfounded. "What the heck! No bullets?"

He couldn't possibly fight in close combat, using the gun as a club, could he?

He sighed. It seemed he would have to keep drawing, he should be able to get bullets.

...

Ye Tong had actually woken up earlier, and like yesterday, she didn't dare to open her eyes.

She was afraid Xu Mu would "deal with" her again.

He was too strong; she felt she was going to break.

Now, an idea surfaced in her mind: let Xu Mu go find other women.

Let others share the burden, as long as Xu Mu treated her as well as he had these past two days, she wouldn't mind.
