"Since that's the case, I won't be polite any longer. Thank you, Elder Qi!"
Seeing that he could not decline, and considering that the Secret Manual of Divine Techniques in the Life and Death Category was indeed useful to him, Xiao Mu stopped refusing, thanked him, and accepted the Secret Manual.
"You're welcome! I believe you will make good use of this Secret Manual of Divine Techniques in the Life and Death Category," Qi Xie said, his aged face showing a gratified smile.
Wu Yan and Xiao Mu bid farewell to Elder Qi and left, retracing their route. Along the way, they encountered many injured Mutant Beings who greeted Wu Yan enthusiastically, cracking harmless jokes.
Wu Yan briefly introduced them to Xiao Mu, and these Mutant Beings were very enthusiastic, inviting Xiao Mu to come and hang out when he had the time.
Xiao Mu responded with a smile to each of them.
