Chapter 66: Don’t look at me, look at the fishing rod? Are you still a man?

Xu Chu's current cultivation level is limited, and he has little experience in Alchemy, so he can only refine Qi Gathering Pills.

This also means that his daily time spent on Alchemy is less than that of other Alchemists in the Family. After completing the task of refining Qi Gathering Pills, he still has some free time.

In the past six months in Yuhe City, he basically used his free time to study Alchemy.

Now that he has arrived at Lingyue City, he is not in a hurry to study the Dao of Alchemy. Instead, he wants to walk around the city more, look around, find some interesting entertainment activities, and pass the time.

After all, his life is too long. If there are not enough diverse entertainment activities, it is easy to get bored.

There is a river in front of Chaoxia Peak, and there are many spiritual fish in the river.

After Xu Chu finished his Alchemy task, he carried the fishing gear he bought and went down the mountain to the river to prepare to fish.

Xu Chu walked along the riverbank and met many people fishing. Just as he found a good spot, he suddenly heard a familiar voice beside him.

"Keep walking forward, about a hundred zhang."

Xu Chu could tell that the voice was Clan Leader Xu Qingzhou. Surprised and confused, Xu Chu walked forward about a hundred zhang as he said, and saw Xu Qingzhou fishing.

Looking at the net bag next to him, there were several fat spiritual fish flapping around. It was obvious that he had been here for a while, and his luck was good.

"Clan Leader, why are you here?"

【I often heard Grandpa and other clan members say that the Clan Leader Cultivates very diligently, spending most of his time every day cultivating in his courtyard. He has carried too much for the Family, and as members of the Xu Family, we should also strive for self-improvement and Cultivate diligently.】

【Why does the Clan Leader have the leisure to fish here?】

In order to salvage Xu Chu's impression of himself, Xu Qingzhou casually said, "Recently, I encountered a Bottleneck in cultivation and felt irritable, so I came to fish to improve my state of mind and adjust my condition."

Xu Chu suddenly understood, and felt very guilty in his heart.

【Grandpa wouldn't lie to me. How could I misunderstand the Clan Leader? He has always been a diligent and hardworking good Clan Leader!!】

Xu Qingzhou suddenly took the initiative.

"You are so young, why are you here fishing too?"

Xu Chu was startled, "I…"

He scratched his head, not knowing how to answer for a moment. He couldn't possibly say that he had a long lifespan and wanted to find something interesting to pass the time.

Thinking of what Xu Qingzhou had just said, he finally had an idea.

"I think the state of mind is very important for cultivation. You can't just improve your Realm and forget to improve your state of mind."

Xu Qingzhou nodded.

"I've already set up a fishing spot here, just find a place casually."

Xu Chu secretly breathed a sigh of relief and quietly fished a few zhang away from Xu Qingzhou.

【It seems I need to fish further away in the future. If I encounter the Clan Leader again, I won't know how to explain it.】

At this moment, the spy who had been monitoring Xu Chu had already returned and reported everything here to Shopkeeper Liu.

"You said Xu Chu was fishing by the river with the Xu Family Patriarch?"

"Yes, they were very close, but they met by chance, they didn't go together."

Shopkeeper Liu stroked his goatee.

"Go notify Lin Moli and tell her to get ready. Once they separate, it will be the best time."

"Understood!"

Xu Qingzhou had arrived early and returned to the Xu Family after feeling he had caught enough. Xu Chu continued to fish, but was currently in a state of catching nothing.

At this moment, Lin Moli, who had been waiting for a long time, finally got a suitable opportunity. After a little tidying up with a mirror, she slowly walked towards Xu Chu, looking as if she was strolling by the river.

Lin Moli did not directly approach Xu Chu; that would be too obvious.

She found a spot not far from Xu Chu and sat on a stone, her left elbow on her knee, propping up her fragrant cheek, and her right hand holding a small wooden stick, scratching in front of her. She looked innocent and romantic, gazing at the shimmering river surface.

A gentle breeze blew, and the fragrance from Lin Moli drifted towards Xu Chu. After smelling it, he subconsciously turned his head to look.

Carefully dressed, Lin Moli wore a light green long dress, her long hair draped over her shoulders, her delicate brows slightly furrowed. She looked into the distance, sighing from time to time, like a girl with something on her mind.

Xu Chu only glanced at her and then turned back to continue watching his float, completely disregarding her.

Just like that, after about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, seeing that Xu Chu made no movement, Lin Moli could only proceed with her second plan.

She stood up, threw away the stick in her hand, took two steps forward, and leaped.

"Plop!!"

Lin Moli was simple and direct, plunging headfirst into the river. Unable to swim, she instinctively thrashed around, splashing water everywhere.

Her sudden jump into the river startled Xu Chu, who was not far away.

"Oh dear! What does this mean! Using herself as bait?"

Seeing Lin Moli looking like she was about to drown, Xu Chu came back to his senses. He looked at the fishing rod in his hand, and then at Lin Moli, who was constantly thrashing in the water.

"What if a fish bites after I leave? I've been here for so long and haven't caught any fish. Wouldn't it be a huge loss to miss this first fish?"

"Forget it, forget it, I should save the person first."

After a moment of hesitation, Xu Chu still put down his fishing rod, took out a long pole, and extended it towards Lin Moli in the water.

"Quick, grab it!!"

Lin Moli heard Xu Chu's voice and saw the pole. She instinctively grabbed it and was then easily pulled ashore by Xu Chu.

At this moment, Lin Moli was completely soaked. Her long dress clung to her curvaceous body, and as she coughed continuously, her body still trembled. This scene was very alluring.

But at this moment, Xu Chu's eyes were on his fishing rod, afraid that if a fish bit, he wouldn't see it and it would get away.

Lin Moli really couldn't swim. After jumping into the river, she was choked and took a while to recover. At this point, she turned to look at Xu Chu, only to find that Xu Chu wasn't looking at her at all, but at his fishing rod.

Lin Moli was instantly so angry she wanted to curse out loud.

Are you even a man? Huh?

A dripping wet, delicate beauty is in front of you, needing your concern and care, and you're looking at your fishing rod?

I really want to pick up your fishing rod and hit you on the head with it!!

At this moment, Lin Moli was so angry her lungs were about to explode, but years of special work experience gave her extremely strong facial expression management. She didn't show any sign of anger at all, but instead looked like a fragile woman.

"This servant thanks Young Master for saving her life."

Her voice was charming, and her face was pale. Anyone who saw her would want to hold her in their arms and comfort her.

Xu Chu replied, "It's nothing, just a small effort. In life, there are no insurmountable obstacles. Don't try to end your life again in the future."

Just as Lin Moli wanted to hold onto Xu Chu's arm to stand up and take the opportunity to fall into his arms.

Xu Chu, having finished speaking, had already stood up in advance, leaving Lin Moli behind, and quickly walked towards his fishing rod.

Lin Moli: "….."
