Jujutsu: Eight Magical Skills At The Beginning, Admission Is A Special Level

Chapter 92: Hu Er

At the foot of Nine Bamboo Mountain.

In front of the Zhu Family's commercial establishment, a figure in a black robe with a covered face stood alone under a tree.

A cool breeze blew, causing the black clothes to ripple.

In an instant, the calm black sea surface surged with waves, angrily and treacherously, making it difficult for one's heart to settle.

The wind swept the robe, revealing delicate red lips on a refined chin, exuding charm and allure, as if surrounded by a misty aura, tempting one to want to kiss them.

It was obvious that this was a woman.

A woman who exuded charm from the depths of her being, every move and gesture constantly tugging at the heartstrings of men.

In theory, such a charming and beautiful woman, regardless of where she was, would bring visible economic growth.

But the surrounding business of renting carriages and horses remained lukewarm, and the disciples of Nine Bamboo Mountain passing by paid no attention to her, not even a glance, let alone a sidelong glance.

Hu San left Three Pristine Peak and quickly arrived at the foot of Nine Bamboo Mountain. When he saw the woman who had been waiting for a long time, he approached her with a docile expression.

"Mother."

The woman was Hu San's birth mother, Hu Er, a wealthy merchant from the capital city, with a fortune worth millions. She was a fox spirit who had not been exposed by players until version 3.0.

Mysterious and astonishing cultivation.

Literally speaking, Hu Er herself was a fox demon, with exceptional innate talent, and the seductive genes engraved in her bones were passed down to the next generation, even her son was born with extraordinary beauty.

She came to Tranquil State this time to see who had inherited her bloodline. If the other party was not qualified, she would disguise herself as a passerby and take away the bloodline source on the spot.

Secondly, she wanted to lay low for a while and extract five portions of the bloodline source in one go. Even though her bloodline talent was exceptional, she couldn't avoid a significant decline in her cultivation for a period of time.

The capital city was a treacherous place. If she was taken advantage of by her enemies while she was vulnerable, then...

There would be no future. The two of them would tidy up and move into the basement, and that would be the end of their lives.

"Mother, why aren't you saying anything?"

After being docile for a while, Hu San couldn't help but feel uneasy when his mother remained silent.

He had told many lies to Lu Bei, such as having a sister, which was pure nonsense. Unless he cross-dressed, Hu Er only had one son.

But there was one thing that Hu San didn't exaggerate, and that was that Hu Er was heavy-handed. She really dared to beat her son to death.

"Oh, who do we have here? It turns out to be Lord Hu San. Why, in such a hurry, are you rushing to bleed your old grandmother at home?"

Hu Er said in a sarcastic tone, "Please, Hu San, have some pity on her. She's old and weak, and doesn't have much blood left for you to drain."

Her voice was low, slow, and gentle, with a hint of huskiness and magnetism. At first listen, it seemed ordinary, but upon closer examination, it had the full-bodied flavor of fine wine, making people unable to resist its charm.

"Hehe."

Hu San chuckled twice and rubbed his hands, saying, "Mother, I've told you before, that guy surnamed Lu is not a good person. He's always spouting nonsense, but why did you take it seriously?"

"I have to take it seriously. The heavens must be blind. How did I give birth to such an unfilial son like you? Yesterday, you dared to draw my blood with a knife, tomorrow you'll dare to take my life, and the day after tomorrow you'll be digging my grave. They say beauty is short-lived, and my life is not short, but it's too bitter..."

As she spoke, Hu Er started sobbing.

The old witch was causing trouble again!

Hu San rolled his eyes, clenched his fist, and coughed lightly twice, using the diversion tactic of shifting attention. "Mother, it's not my fault, blame it on my father. But now is not the time to talk about this. I just came out of the Ascension Gate. You saw it yourself. How was it? Did I pass?"

Upon hearing this, Hu Er instantly stopped crying and said with satisfaction, "Pure and untainted, with a mind as clear as water. I'm very pleased. For now, I'll consider you not blind."

"What... him? He's still pure? Are you serious?"

Hu San was shocked and retracted his previous words. It turned out that this pretty boy not only had the ability to charm the world, but also to make people speak nonsense with their eyes wide open. Even his own mother couldn't escape...

Wait a minute, something's not right!

Realizing the key point, Hu San's face instantly became serious. "Mother, I'll give you another chance to reorganize your words. Remember, he and your son are like brothers. If you really think about it, it wouldn't be excessive for him to call you mother."

"Him?"

Hu Er was slightly stunned, then said, "So you were talking about that guy surnamed Lu. I thought you were talking about those five well-behaved juniors."

Hu San: (_)

Go ahead, keep pretending!

"I'm very satisfied with those five. Pure as water lilies, naturally unadorned, they have my bloodline and the five elements' colorful destiny. They will surely achieve something in the future. It's not a bad thing for me." Hu Er commented.

"No way, they are innocent and lively, that's true. But mother, you... in short, you and they are not of the same kind, but you can still get along?" Hu San was extremely surprised.

"Being charming to the extreme is purity, and being pure to the extreme is charm. Those five are just like me when I was young."

After explaining, Hu Er glared at her son and said, "You, a half-human, half-demon male, what do you know about the affairs between us female fox demons?"

Fine, I'm just a clueless fool again!

Hu San was quite speechless and said frankly, "Mother, I don't care about that. I'm asking about Lu Bei. How is he? Is he a suitable candidate to be your right-hand man?"

"I didn't pay attention."

"......"

"I didn't pay attention to what he looked like, but I did notice the woman next to him."

Hu Er commented, "Guarding a few beautiful women in this remote place, it's obvious they have ulterior motives. If it weren't for the fact that they are all virgins, this guy named Lu would not catch my attention."

"And then?"

"This kid doesn't know his place. Even in the face of the overall situation, he can't ensure his own safety in the Core Incubation Realm. Instead of thinking about how to save himself, he has the audacity to talk about others. Based on this alone, he is a clueless and foolish person."

"So what?"

"He has a thick face and a dark heart, but he also values emotions and righteousness. He is qualified to be your right-hand man." Hu Er concluded.

"Mother, to be honest, as your son who has inherited your wise mind, I also think the same way."

Hu San smiled at the corner of his eyes and said, "Lu Bei is wary of the reputation of the Profound Moon Department. He has declined several attempts to recruit him. Fortunately, it's not a big problem. This guy asks for too much. Sooner or later, he will obediently accept his fate."

"Think it through. Not just anyone can enter the Profound Moon Department. This kid is no different from the cultivators outside. If he doesn't have loyalty to the sect, he must have loyalty to his family. If you vouch for him to enter the Profound Moon Department and he causes trouble in the future, you will also bear the responsibility." Hu Er warned.

"Loyalty is not absolute, but absolute disloyalty. If we go by this saying, the only ones His Majesty can trust are the eunuchs serving by his side. Not to mention the people in the Profound Moon Department, even the Grand Tutor, isn't he also a disciple of the Yunzhong Pavilion? They all have ulterior motives!"

Hu San grinned, "As for him causing trouble, I'm not worried. What kind of major trouble can someone who is more afraid of death than me cause? As long as you're here, Mother, what do I have to fear?"

"Let's hope so."

Hu Er didn't comment, but she tacitly agreed with Hu San's words. Then she frowned, "Speaking of that despicable woman being a disciple of the Yunzhong Pavilion, very few people know about it. How did Lu Bei find out? Have you investigated it?"

"Um, he said he has a friend."

Hu San smiled awkwardly, "Based on my investigation, I have confirmed that his friend is himself. As for the specifics... I'm still investigating. I should have results soon."

"What do you need him for?"

"My dear son, he's handy in a fight."

"That's true."

Hu Er nodded slightly. Indeed, when it came to fighting, it felt different when her own son was involved.

Seemingly thinking of something, she pondered for a while without saying a word. Hu San obediently stood by, not daring to disturb her.

After a moment of contemplation, Hu Er slowly said, "Lu Bei can enter the Profound Moon Department, with the same position as you. He will temporarily wear a green robe and be assigned a difficult case to test his abilities."

"Green Guard, isn't that a bit too high?"

Hu San frowned. The Profound Moon Department has five ranks, from highest to lowest: Xuan, Zi, Qing, Jin, Yin. The darker the color, the higher the rank.

Also, due to the special nature of the intelligence agency, except for the two Xuan Guards responsible for the Wu Zhou region and the foreign region, who hold the position of Third Grade Military Officer and have the authority to command the county's military forces, the identities of the majority of people are kept confidential without official military positions.

The green robe mentioned by Hu Er, with green threads woven at the cuffs, corresponds to the Qing Guard. Although it obscures the official position, it grants the power to mobilize the county's military forces with a token.

Previously, Hu San thought that Lu Bei wouldn't cause much trouble, but now he wasn't so sure.

"There's one more thing..."

Hu Er's lips curved into a faint smile, "Go tell Lu Bei that I appreciate him and plan to adopt him as my godson."

"???"

Hu San stood in place with his mouth wide open, stunned by the sudden turn of events. He quickly realized the reason behind it.

"Mother, why do you want to adopt a godson? Your own son hasn't even warmed up yet!"

"Stop talking nonsense. If I tell you to go, you go. Otherwise, I'll break your dog legs."

"My legs are dog legs, then what are you?"

Hu San muttered under his breath, then scratched his head and said, "I understand. I'll go find him in a few days. By then, I'll..."

"Go now."

"I can't go now. If I go down the mountain and come back, won't it be obvious that I'm telling him? Are you nearby, Mother?"

"It doesn't matter. He has already guessed."

"Alright then, wait for me. I'll be back soon."

Hu San shrugged, not knowing which nerve the old witch had gotten wrong again. Or perhaps, all women at this age have a few days when they suddenly go crazy.

From the moment Hu San went down the mountain to the end of their conversation, the two enchanting beauties gathered together without arousing the slightest suspicion from the people around them.

If Lu Bei saw this scene, he would most likely guess the reason.

Being in close proximity to beauty, because he had always adhered to his principle of not getting involved with women, had infected the entire Nine Bamboo Mountain. So when everyone saw a beautiful woman, it was like seeing air.

"It's strange. Adopting him as my godson unexpectedly benefits me. It's a huge benefit..."

Hu San leisurely made his way up the mountain, while Hu Er looked deeply in the direction of the Three Pristine Peak, confirming her luck through fortune-telling. It was once again confirmed that she hadn't made a mistake. Not to mention the mother's favoritism, there was indeed a huge benefit.

"The little guy is quite interesting. I'll give him a chance. I want to see what benefits he can bring to his godmother."
