Gradually, her breathing became even and long, and she fell asleep.
Looking at her peaceful sleeping face, Su Mu lowered his head and kissed Su Zhixiao's forehead, then adjusted her into a more comfortable position.
Let her sleep more peacefully.
Thanks to the "Mysterious Female Harmony and Heaven-Mending Technique", Xiaoxiao's endurance was improved, and Su Mu's already well-established body also improved accordingly.
He was still very energetic at this moment. Although he was not yet at the point of being unable to control himself, he was not sleepy at all.
With a focused mind, he had saved some yang energy to nourish the silkworm silk, which he could now use to make a few more pairs of stockings.
After making several more styles of stockings for Xiaoxiao, several more graceful figures floated into his mind, based on their different temperaments and...
We carefully considered the body shape and the design and size.
The color given to Aunt Ning was a deep and alluring black, clear as mist, outlining a mature charm, just like the color she usually loves to wear.
The one given to Aunt Hu was a passionate, fiery red, with a halter neckline that accentuated her plump, fleshy thighs.
As for Qinghan, it is pure white with a delicate texture, and the jumpsuit style makes it look even purer.
Time passed quietly in the stillness. After an unknown amount of time, three meticulously crafted stockings were finished and lay quietly on the table.
He carefully put away these three thoughtful and ingenious "gifts." Only after doing all this did he feel a slight weariness creeping over him.
He lifted a corner of the blanket, gently lay down, and then naturally pulled the sleeping Su Zhixiao back into his arms.
As Xiaoxiao slept, she sensed the familiar scent and warmth, and unconsciously snuggled closer to him, finding the most comfortable position, and let out a soft moan.
A soft, kitten-like humming sound.
Su Mu looked down at her nestled sleeping position, his heart filled with peace and contentment. He tightened his arms around her, closed his eyes, and stayed with his beloved little one.
The cat, along with others, drifted into a peaceful dream.

Chapter 133 The Gathering of Prodigies
The next morning, Su Mu rolled up his sleeves and personally prepared breakfast for Su Zhixiao, who was about to participate in the Tianjiao Gathering.
"Xiaoxiao, you must eat more today." Su Mu turned around and handed breakfast to Su Zhixiao, who was already sitting at the table, looking at her expectantly, and said softly.
"Yes! Don't worry, brother!" Su Zhixiao nodded vigorously, picked up her chopsticks, and began to eat heartily, her cheeks bulging like a little granary.
Like a rat.
She mumbled a reply, "With breakfast made by my brother, Xiaoxiao will definitely be victorious!"
She ate with relish, not only because Su Mu's cooking skills were superb, but also because it was specially prepared for her by Su Mu, and every bite brought her joy.
The temperature of An.
A hint of regret flickered in Hu Chanyuan's eyes as she sighed softly, "It's just a pity that Qinghan and I can't be there in person to cheer Xiaoxiao on."
As members of the fox clan, she and Li Qinghan needed to be extremely cautious even with secret techniques to conceal their presence at a gathering of heroes like the Heavenly Pride Gathering.
What's even more regrettable is that I can't be by Su Mu's side to share every moment of tension and joy with him.
"I'm full!" Su Zhixiao put down her chopsticks contentedly, her little face beaming with happiness.
Su Mu naturally picked up a warm, soft towel and carefully wiped away the slight oil stains from the corners of her mouth with gentle, affectionate movements.
“Alright, let’s set off then. Aunt Ning is already waiting in the carriage.” He took Xiaoxiao’s hand.
"Goodbye, Aunt Hu and Qinghan!" Su Zhixiao skipped and grabbed Su Mu's arm, turning back to wave to the two girls with a bright smile.
"Sister Xiaoxiao, may your martial arts prowess be boundless!"
"Xiaoxiao, be careful." Hu Chanyuan and Li Qinghan said in unison, carrying their heartfelt blessings for their family.
Inside the carriage, Li Zhaoning was already seated.
As the Prince of Ning of Qingzhou, she naturally had to attend this Gathering of Prodigies. Today, she wore a python robe, carefully bound her chest, and covered her face with...
Wearing that iconic mask, his stunning beauty was concealed, revealing only a pair of calm, watery eyes.
"Is Xiaoxiao all ready?"
"Don't worry, Aunt Ning! My brother replenished Xiaoxiao's yang energy last night, and she's in excellent condition today!"
Su Zhixiao answered with a touch of naive boastfulness. In her simple mind, Li Zhaoning certainly wouldn't understand the meaning behind this "yang energy."
The beautiful meaning of .
“Is that so…” Li Zhaoning looked at Su Mu meaningfully through the mask.
She had personally experienced the abundance and unique effectiveness of Su Mu's yang energy more than once. Her eyes held a hint of understanding, a touch of...
There was a hint of profoundness in their banter, something only they could understand.
Su Mu received her gaze, simply smiled calmly, shrugged, showing no embarrassment whatsoever, but rather an air of unspoken understanding.
The tacit understanding.
"Let's set off." Li Zhaoning said no more, and quietly instructed the female guards who were driving the carriage. The carriage smoothly drove towards the giant arena where the Heavenly Pride Tournament was being held.
The arena was magnificent and bustling with activity. The huge circular arena was divided into several sections, allowing multiple matches to take place simultaneously, and was surrounded by...
The tiered stands are large enough to accommodate tens of thousands of spectators.
The area was under tight security, with guards in uniform standing solemnly, patrolling and standing guard meticulously.
Even on the ground and in the air, there was a faint flow of spiritual light, which was obviously due to the deployment of many powerful protective formations to ensure the success of the event.
"Aunt Ning has really gone to great lengths for this Gathering of Prodigies." Su Mu looked at the impenetrable security formation and sighed sincerely.
“Yes,” Li Zhaoning nodded slightly, “The changes in Linhe Town and Peach Blossom Forest are still fresh in our minds, so we must be extra cautious and take precautions against potential problems.”
My senses are fairly sharp. If Aunt Ning doesn't mind, I can carefully inspect all the array nodes again this afternoon during my free time, just to prevent any oversights.
"It's leaking." Su Mu volunteered, saying that since it concerned Xiaoxiao, he wanted to provide more protection.
“Okay, I’ll go with you then,” Li Zhaoning immediately agreed.
She knew that Su Mu's perception was far beyond that of ordinary people; his keenness was unparalleled in her life. Even Xiao Xiao was three points weaker than him. With his help, she could feel more at ease.
Heart o
And this is one of the few opportunities they've had to be alone together these past few days!
"Alright, alright, Aunt Ning, shouldn't you go and take your seat on the stage? Stop talking to my brother, we need to draw lots!" Su Zhi
Seeing the two chatting so enthusiastically, Lu hugged Su Mu's arm tightly with a coquettish tone, revealing a hint of jealousy.
"Very well. Then I wish Xiaoxiao good fortune in martial arts, and that she will be invincible." Li Zhaoning's gaze swept over Su Mu again, lingered for a moment, and then...
Surrounded by female guards and maids, she walked towards the exclusive head seat with an excellent view.
"Let's go, my little jealous cat, let's go draw lots." Su Mu affectionately ruffled Xiaoxiao's hair and led her towards the lot-drawing area.
Su Zhixiao drew the second round of the competition, which meant she could rest after the first round. So, Su Mu led her to the edge of the arena.
The fourth floor of the pavilion is reserved for high-ranking members of various sects to watch the battle.
The fourth floor boasts an elegant environment and a wide view, second only to Li Zhaoning's dais. This is not a place for ordinary disciples; only elders from various sects and high-ranking officials are permitted entry.
Only the most valued and outstanding talents are allowed to sit here.
==================================================

At the entrance, the two guards immediately bowed respectfully upon seeing Su Mu, saying, "Greetings, Mr. Su!" They then stepped aside to make way for him.
He bowed and invited the two inside.
"Hello Mr. Su!"
As soon as Su Mu stepped in, the elders from various sects, who had been sitting or standing and conversing in hushed tones, all stood up and greeted him with cupped hands, their faces beaming with gratitude.
With a friendly, even slightly respectful, smile.
"Greetings, esteemed elders." Su Mu greeted them all with humility, and then stepped forward to exchange pleasantries and reminisce with several elders. His words were polite and respectful.
Like a spring breeze.
"This must be Mr. Su's sister, right? She is indeed exceptionally beautiful and talented; is she also here to participate in the Heavenly Pride Gathering?" Several female elders looked at her with loving eyes.
He spoke to Su Zhixiao in a gentle tone.
"It is indeed my younger sister, Su Zhixiao. She has come primarily to exchange ideas and broaden her horizons," Su Mu replied with a smile, softly referring to Xiao.
Xiao introduced these seniors who were quite famous in the cultivation world.
"Junior Su Zhixiao greets all the seniors." In front of others, Su Zhixiao immediately shed the coquettishness she displayed when she was with Su Mu, showing just the right amount of poise.
His aloofness and politeness.
She greeted them with grace and poise, her demeanor dignified. Seeing that these female elders, though familiar with her brother, were all of average appearance, she felt a pang of unease.
They lowered their guard and became more sincere.
"Mr. Su, I heard that you recently overcame the obstacles in your cultivation?" An elder who was on good terms with the Genshan Sect couldn't help but ask curiously.
Although Su Mu's feat of fighting against a Golden Core demon cultivator was not widely publicized, it was no secret among the higher-ups.
Everyone knew that although he was physically strong in the past, he was unable to cultivate spiritual power. Now that he could contend with the Golden Core cultivator, he must have broken through a key bottleneck.
Upon hearing this, the other elders also cast concerned and curious glances their way. Although they dared not rashly use their spiritual sense to probe Su Mu's cultivation level, they...
The questions in our hearts are the same.
Su Mu smiled frankly and cupped his hands, saying, "I am grateful for the concern of all the seniors. It is indeed so. I am fortunate to have now officially entered the Foundation Establishment stage."
Congratulations, Mr. Su!
"This is a truly joyous occasion!"
"Heaven truly has eyes; it rewards those who persevere!"
For a time, congratulatory messages rose and fell, overflowing with sincere joy.
These elders, either having benefited greatly from the precious pills provided by Su Mu, or admiring his character and business acumen, had long since regarded this...
He regarded the young man as an equal and even often used him as a role model to teach his disciples.
Hearing that he had broken through the shackles and was able to formally cultivate, everyone was genuinely happy.
"Mr. Su, I was unaware of this joyous news beforehand. I hastily prepared this small gift to express my sincere gratitude; I hope you will accept it!" said an elder.
First, take out a jade box.
"Hey, you dare to offer such paltry things? Mr. Su, I recently crafted a batch of protective magic items, the quality is quite good, please feel free to use them."
Take it and use it!
"Hey, you old codger, you're trying to outdo each other with your congratulatory gifts to Mr. Su? Why don't you bring out that Seven Stars Accompanying the Moon Grass you got the other day?"
