Lin Mu had not expected that he would be getting to taste such an exquisite tea today. More so, it was a tea that was infused with spirit qi. He could only imagine such a luxury in the past, but now here he was experiencing it first hand.

~Haa~

Lin Mu let out a breath of satisfaction as he opened his eyes. He looked at the faint green tea in his cup and took another sip, this time finishing the cup in one go. Another wisp of gentle spirit qi was absorbed by his body and entered his dantian.

This was strange to him as whenever he had consumed food rich in spirit qi, he had to consciously assimilate it. If he did not, it won't be properly absorbed or would just dissipate. He was surprised by this effect of the tea.

Hei Yingjie witnessed every change of expression on Lin Mu's face and could get a grasp on what he was thinking.

"Ah, brother Lin Mu's likes my tea, it seems." Hei Yingjie spoke.

Lin Mu looked at him and nodded.

"Yes, I do. It is indeed quite exquisite." Lin Mu replied.

"As it should be. This is the Frost leaf jasmine tea, and it is a native specialty of the snowy mountains of the Black Dawn kingdom. Even the cultivation sects have a hard time procuring this, I was lucky enough to encounter a tree on my journeys, thus was able to acquire it." Hei Yingjie explained.

Lin Mu was rather surprised with this revelation and now wondered about the abilities of the man in front of him.

"Then I thank you for your hospitality and for giving me this opportunity." Lin Mu spoke respectfully.

"Hahaha, brother Lin Mu you don't have to stand in formality. This is nothing worth compared to your friendship." Hei Yingjie spoke in a flattering tone.

Lin Mu was now starting to feel strange. The man's words and mannerisms with him seemed to be a little too overtly flattering for him. It seemed as if he wanted to become close to him at all costs.

"It is not that he wants to establish a friendly relation with you, but rather that he has to. Your earlier demeanor and acts until now have now helped you establish a dominant presence." Xukong suddenly spoke.

Lin Mu didn't respond to senior Xukong's statement, but instead just nodded. Hei Yingjie thought Lin Mu was nodding to him, thus he let out another laugh, while in reality, Lin Mu had nodded in response to senior Xukong.

"Now then, I hope you didn't face any difficulties these past days." Hei Yingjie spoke, wanting to continue the conversation.
