Chapter 237 Contrast
Su Muyao and Mei Qingchen were in the cave of the trial grounds, unaware of the situation of the Mei family head and Madam Mei, nor did they know that they had caused the strange phenomenon of the Mei family ancestors.

Su Muyao and Mei Qingchen talked for a long time.

Mei Qingchen's tone of voice is different now than before. It is unhurried and gentle, like a spring breeze and drizzle, which makes people feel very comfortable. Her voice is also very pleasant, with an ethereal tone that can cleanse the soul of the beastmen.

Su Muyao learned a lot from Mei Qingchen's description.

"So this place is the ruins of an ancient battlefield, and there are some unexpected treasures inside?"

If there's a hidden treasure, there's no rush to leave; we should look for it here.

However, there are also dangers here.

"So this trial ground is a real place. You just rashly came in like this. Aren't you afraid of losing your life?"

She didn't know what to say.

Mei Qingchen gently tidied her hair, touching it tenderly, seemingly reluctant to let go.

He wanted to do other things, but he restrained himself and cautiously approached her little by little, afraid that she would be unhappy or unwilling.

Although he awakened the Mei family bloodline, he also had his own emotional desires.

He has his own emotions and desires, and all his feelings come from her.

With a dazed look in his eyes, he explained softly, "I didn't think much back then. I instinctively figured out a lot of things and wanted to be qualified to stay by your side and be your true beast husband."

If he could, he wouldn't want to think about his past behavior; it was childish and ridiculous.

Fortunately, his wife was so kind that she didn't find fault with him too much.

Otherwise, he would no longer be qualified to be her beastly husband, and she wouldn't be here.

Just then, the roar of a wild beast came from outside.

Su Muyao looked out of the cave and saw several wild beasts about to rush into their cave.

Mei Qingchen instantly drew her sword, sweeping it around in a flurry of blows, killing the wild beasts instantly.

Su Muyao was shocked, not expecting Mei Qingchen to be so strong after reaching the peak of level eight.

Mei Qingchen slowly walked to the corpses of the wild beasts, and with a flick of her sword, collected four crystal cores, which she then washed clean by the nearby river.

His movements were all so elegant.

After washing, he handed it to Su Muyao and said, "My lady, here you go."

Su Muyao looked at the object curiously. "What is this? It looks like a crystal?"

Mei Qingchen explained, "These are the crystal cores from these wild beasts."

"Once they absorb spiritual energy and reach a certain level of strength, killing them will allow you to obtain their energy core crystals."

"Crystal cores have the effect of enhancing superpowers. Crystal cores of different attributes can be absorbed by superpower users of the corresponding attributes, which can enhance their strength, power, speed, etc."

"Especially during battle, after consuming powerful supernatural energy, you can use crystal cores to replenish it."

"This is an ancient battlefield with abundant spiritual energy, so the energy of these crystal cores is more helpful for cultivation than that of spirit stones."

Su Muyao said, "Keep such a precious thing for yourself."

Mei Qingchen explained, "When I fought with them before, I devoured a lot of crystal cores. My body couldn't handle too many. These crystal cores are different from my ability system, so they are useless to me. My wife can dispose of them as she pleases."

"And these too."

Mei Qingchen also collected a lot of crystal cores, which he gave to Su Muyao.

He wished he could give all the good things to Su Muyao.

Su Muyao looked up and met Mei Qingchen's gaze, understanding the expectant look in his eyes, hoping that she would accept it.

As if afraid she would refuse.

Su Muyao's heart softened and she said, "Okay, then I'll take them all. I'll give them to Wen Nanxi and the others later. You don't mind?"

Mei Qingchen nodded and said, "The wife makes the decisions. The superpower systems are different. By increasing their strength, they can better protect the wife."

Su Muyao couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Now that Mei Qingchen had awakened, his perspective and way of thinking about things were completely different.

Completely different from before, the contrast made her unable to help but laugh.

"Why do you think none of the wild beasts we hunted in the northern mountains had crystal cores?"

Mei Qingchen explained, "The strength is insufficient, the spiritual energy from the outside world is insufficient, and those wild beasts have a lifespan of less than a thousand years. If they have a lifespan of less than a thousand years, their strength level is not high enough, and they will not possess a crystal core."

"Another important reason is that the outside environment is polluted, and many wild beasts have turned into mutated beasts. This means that the crystal cores of mutated beasts are also polluted mutated crystal cores, which are fatal and therefore cannot be used."

Therefore, the crystal cores in her hands were even more precious. Next, Mei Qingchen led Su Muyao to kill many wild beasts and collect a considerable number of crystal cores.

Because after they leave the trial grounds, the trial grounds will close, and they will not be able to enter again.

Therefore, they need to acquire enough treasures.

There were some huge snakes, insects and beasts here, but when Su Muyao walked by, they would instinctively avoid her in fear.

Seeing the reactions of these snakes and insects, Su Muyao thought of the snake-skin inner garment she was wearing, which carried the aura of the ancient celestial serpent from Wen Nanxi and could intimidate snakes and insects. She hadn't expected it to be true.

So much so that when she encountered some spiritual treasures and medicinal herbs guarded by snakes and insects, they didn't even attack her and just ran away on their own, making it as easy for her to pick these spiritual treasures and medicinal herbs as cutting grass.

She only now realized how powerful the ancient celestial serpent bloodline was.

Not only that, she also picked a lot.

When the trial grounds were about to close, Su Muyao and Mei Qingchen had no choice but to leave first.

……

When the two came out, the head of the Mei family and his wife were stunned by Mei Qingchen's appearance.

Although he was his own son, his demeanor and expression were very different.

It gives the feeling that they should kneel down and worship.

"Father, Mother, I have fully awakened."

His tone and voice were slightly different when he spoke, but the Mei family head and Madam Mei...
"I know, I know, it's all thanks to Mu Yao that you were able to fully awaken..."

Madam Mei paid no attention to Mei Qingchen and went straight up to Su Muyao, grabbing her hand in an extremely affectionate manner.

Mei Qingchen told his father about the trial grounds and the situation of being sealed off. The head of the Mei family was very surprised, as this was something he had never known before.

The head of the Mei family immediately convened an emergency meeting of the family elders, secretly discussed the matter, and showed everyone the ancient book.

Everyone expressed that the Mei family would support Su Muyao with all its might.

……

Then Su Muyao was about to go back, and Mei Qingchen naturally wanted to go back to the Su family with her. Everyone in the Mei family couldn't wait for him to go back with her, hoping that he and Su Muyao would stay together forever.

At the same time, the Mei family head gave the family seal to Mei Qingchen, saying, "Now that you have fully awakened and reached the peak of the eighth level, we are all very happy. You are the hope of our Mei family. This is the family head's token, which can command the entire Mei clan to serve you."

"The Mei family's businesses have all been handed over to you to manage, so you must treat your wife well."

The Mei family head and Madam Mei emphasized this last sentence many times, but Mei Qingchen listened patiently.

He was grateful to his parents for choosing such a good wife for him when he was still young and naive, and for forcing him to persevere when he wanted to leave and give up.

So Mei Qingchen bowed respectfully to them, saying, "Father, Mother, thank you."

The head of the Mei family patted him on the shoulder, "We're not used to you being like this now."

Madam Mei said, "Now that you understand everything clearly, we can rest assured about you."

"Following Mu Yao is the right choice. Whatever she does, you must support her unconditionally."

Mei Qingchen nodded; he would have done the same even if his parents hadn't said anything.

……

The news that Su Muyao had visited the Mei family and then brought Mei Qingchen back to the Su family spread like wildfire, and everyone sighed that the Mei family had been farsighted.

Of course, no one knows about Mei Qingchen's change in strength yet; if they did, they would be even more shocked.

When Mei Qingchen returned and met Wen Nanxi and the others, they welcomed him back.

However, when Mei Qingchen saw Xiao Jihan, her expression changed.

As if sensing something, he took out his divination tools and threw them on the ground.

When he performed divination, he sat cross-legged, exuding a sacred aura that made everyone afraid to speak or disturb him.

Su Muyao was a little nervous. Would something go wrong?

When Mei Qingchen opened her eyes again, a faint golden light flashed in her eyes and disappeared in an instant.

Su Muyao asked, "Is there a problem?"

Mei Qingchen looked at Xiao Jihan and said, "Something has happened to the Xiao family."
