Douluo: The Dragon King - I Planted the Divine Tree in Douluo.

If it were just about repaying a debt of gratitude, Mu Xi would never have been so eager to urge Mu Chen to find Su Mo's whereabouts.

Not to mention that after seeing Mu Xi, Yuan Bao'er didn't see even the slightest bit of panic on Mu Xi's face.

Yuanbao knew her daughter's character all too well.

Because she was well protected by herself and Mu Chen from a young age, and was also pampered by her master craftsman Zhen Hua, Mu Xi could be said to have never experienced any setbacks from childhood to adulthood.

It was precisely because she had never experienced any setbacks that Mu Xi's mental fortitude was quite average, far inferior to that of her junior brother Tang Wulin.

But Mu Xi, who had just experienced a life-or-death crisis, did not cry out of fear when she saw him. Instead, she started to act coquettishly towards Mu Chen and asked him to help her find her savior.

It's obvious something's wrong.

Not to mention the way Mu Xi's eyes lit up when she saw Su Mo. If I hadn't pulled Mu Xi back in time, she probably would have run up to him without any restraint.

But you know what, this kid named Su Mo is actually quite good-looking.

She truly is worthy of being my Yuanbao'er's daughter!

As long as Su Mo is okay, Yuan Bao'er is happy to see things go smoothly between Mu Xi and Su Mo.

"Su Mo!"

Looking at the shy, budding blonde beauty in front of him, Su Mo gave his name without any hesitation.

"Su Mo, Su Mo..."

After repeating Su Mo's name to herself several times, Mu Xi suddenly slapped her forehead, looking as if she had just realized something. She clasped her hands together, her face beaming with delight, and exclaimed, "Junior, I've heard of you before!"

Mu Xi had actually heard of the name Su Mo before.

Su Mo, as the student with the highest cultivation talent in the history of Donghai Academy, had already spread his name throughout the entire academy when he first entered the school. It wouldn't be difficult for Mu Xi to find out.

Mu Xi never expected that the person who saved her from the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear was actually Su Mo.

"that……"

Just as Mu Xi was about to invite Su Mo to her home to repay Su Mo for saving her life, a large figure blocked her way.

Looking at Mu Chen blocking her way, Mu Xi said irritably, "Dad, what are you doing? Can't you see I'm chatting with my junior?"

"Get out of the way right now!"

Faced with Mu Xi's orders, Mu Chen did not answer but stared at Su Mo and said with a smile, "So you're the one who killed the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear and saved Xiao Xi, right? As expected, heroes emerge from among the young."

"I am Mu Chen, the president of the Donghai City Forging Masters Association. This is my business card. If you need my help in the future, please feel free to contact me."

After saying that, Mu Chen handed his business card, made of an unknown silver-white metal, to Su Mo.

"Dad, what are you doing?"

Seeing that her father was so eager to distance himself from Su Mo, Mu Xi panicked and immediately tried to pull Mu Chen away.

Before Mu Xi could make a move, Yuan Bao'er, who had been watching the drama unfold, walked gracefully to Mu Xi's side and whispered a few words in Mu Xi's ear.

Upon hearing her mother's words, Mu Xi's fair face flushed crimson. She quickly waved her hands and denied it, saying, "No, no...no way!"

Seeing her daughter's shy expression after her little secret was exposed, unable to even speak properly, Yuanbao smiled like an aunt.

To reiterate, she doesn't object to Mu Xi and Su Mo being together, but only if Su Mo is completely free of problems.

Yuan Bao'er and Mu Chen had encountered people like Su Mo who had done them great favors before.

As a renowned trio in the forging world, Yuan Bao'er and Mu Chen encountered people who tried to get close to them in various ways when they were still working at the Mingdu Forging Masters Association.

Most of these people who tried to get close to him and establish a relationship with him came from powerful and well-known forces in the Douluo Continent. Their purpose in getting close to him and Mu Chen was very simple: they hoped to establish a relationship with Zhen Hua, the contemporary master craftsman, through him and his wife.

As the only entity in the world capable of manufacturing four-word battle armor, Zhenhua is a highly sought-after asset in the eyes of various major powers.

However, due to the existence of the Federation and the Blacksmith Association, no one dared to openly attack Zhenhua, but some people were still unwilling to give up and tried to get in touch with Zhenhua through themselves and their husbands.

When the couple brought Xiao Muxi to Donghai City, a small place far from the center of the mainland, wasn't it to tell those people that they didn't want to interfere in the affairs of the mainland?

Seeing the business card Mu Chen handed over, Su Mo accepted it without any hesitation.

Seeing that Su Mo accepted his business card without hesitation, Mu Chen nodded in satisfaction.

If Su Mo hadn't accepted his business card, this situation would have been much more complicated.

If Su Mo were determined to pursue a relationship with him in public, given that his precious daughter was clearly interested, Mu Chen would have no way to refuse.

After exchanging a few more pleasantries with Su Mo, Mu Chen left the Spirit Pagoda with Mu Xi and Yuan Bao'er.

"You really saved Mu Xi from the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear?"

As soon as Mu Chen and his group left, Gu Yue, who had been silent for a long time, couldn't help but ask a question.

Although Mu Chen's attitude suggests that this is mostly true, Gu Yue still finds it hard to believe.

As Leng Yaozhu's disciple, Gu Yue's understanding of the Spirit Ascension Platform far surpasses that of Tang Wulin and the others.

Once a dominant-level spirit beast like the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear appears on the primary Spirit Ascension Platform, it essentially becomes the guardian of that platform.

Moreover, as the ruler of all soul beasts, Gu Yue knew the formidable strength of the Hundred-Year Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear better than anyone else present.

Even if the five of them joined forces, they would have no chance of escaping the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear.

It's truly unbelievable that Su Mo was able to escape the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's hunt with the heavily injured Mu Xi.

Before Su Mo could respond, Wang Ling, who had been watching the drama unfold, interjected, "Young lady, you seem to be underestimating your classmate's abilities."

"Your classmate not only saved Miss Mu Xi, but also killed that Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear with a hundred years of cultivation before leaving the Spirit Ascension Platform."

Hearing Wang Ling speak up for him, Su Mo glanced at Wang Ling in surprise.

Wang Ling simply smiled at this.

Anyone would know how to leave a good impression on a genius like Su Mo simply by talking.

"!!!"

A Great Soul Master kills a Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear with a hundred years of cultivation? Is this even human?

Not only Gu Yue, but Tang Wulin and the others were also stunned. Although Tang Wulin had never seen a Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, a hegemon-level soul beast, it did not mean that he did not know how terrifying the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear was.

Looking at Tang Wulin and the others who were stunned in place, Wu Changkong nodded helplessly, "He is right. Su Mo not only saved Mu Xi but also killed that Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear."

With Wu Changkong's guarantee, Tang Wulin and the others could not believe it or accept this fact, no matter how much they didn't.

Xie Xie, in particular, felt his face burning. He had just been looking down on Su Mo for not surviving as long as him in the Spirit Ascension Platform, but in the end, he had become the laughingstock.

Fortunately, Su Mo didn't hold it against him, otherwise Xie Xie would never have the face to appear in front of Su Mo again.

"Is there anything else? If not, I'll head back now."

Su Mo looked around at everyone, who were all stunned, yawned, and said weakly.

Su Mo was very satisfied with today's results.

Not only did he get a top-tier external soul bone for free, he also got involved with Mu Chen, a master craftsman.
