Thinking of the bones piled like mountains in the forbidden land, various mysterious cultivation techniques of unknown origin, and that beast skin with the na "Zhu Jiuyou" written on it...
For a mont, my mind was in turmoil, my heart was a ss.
"Wuwan Temple!"
Upon learning that the disciples were killed by Hui Neng, Huo Wuya’s complexion darkened, murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
"I knew sothing was off with Wuwan Temple’s increasingly odd behavior over these years, even coveting the Dragon Qi... Now it seems all traces point to one thing, the resurrection of the millennium old Ancient Emperor!"
"Just wait, this matter is far from over, I’ll make a trip to the Western Regions sooner or later to demand an explanation!"
As for Chen Mo, displaying his divine prowess, first slaying No Desire Buddha, then pacifying the corpse tide, breaking the grand array, and leading everyone to escape... No need to ntion, they could guess this was likely the handiwork of Yu Youhan.
This once again refreshed Huo Wuya’s cognition.
Separated by two realms, possessed by a Divine Soul, yet still able to achieve such feats.
Such strength is simply terrifying, fortunately I didn’t make an enemy of them back then, otherwise I wouldn’t even know how I’d die!
...
...
In the midst of their conversation, Chen Mo approached the Empress.
Before she could speak, he directly bent ninety degrees, gratefully said: "Thank you Empress for saving my life! Your great kindness cannot be repaid, I can only offer myself as repaynt, making ands through bodily gratitude... Hmm?"
Yu Youhan hurriedly covered his mouth, flustered and annoyed: "Shut up, what nonsense are you spouting?"
Chen Mo blinked.
"No licking!"
Yu Youhan shivered a bit, quickly withdrew her hand.
Originally, upon seeing that Female Demon, she was sowhat upset, intending to give this guy a hard ti, but his joking antics made it impossible to stay angry.
Yet, she still maintained a cold deanor on the surface.
No matter what, the attitude must be upheld, otherwise if he realized how easily appeased she was, she’d end up being bullied endlessly!
"Alright, the court personnel have also withdrawn. There shouldn’t be any more accidents. You clean up the remaining ss yourself, I’m leaving now... Oh, and rember to co back early."
Having said that, the void in front of her tore open, and her figure suddenly disappeared.
Chen Mo smacked his lips; the ti away was indeed long this ti, probably the Empress Baby is getting impatient, plus it’s been a while since he last saw Saintess Gu and Shuishui, and who knows what kind of mischief Paper Flying Girl might have stirred up...
As he pondered secretly, the sound of light footsteps ca from behind.
"Mr. Chen..."
Chen Mo turned his head to see An ngni, spoke up: "Miss An seeking for sothing?"
An ngni lowered her body, thanked deeply: "If it weren’t for Mr. Chen, I wouldn’t have survived, and even my old ailnts were cured. Such great kindness truly can’t be repaid..."
Chen Mo found the words familiar, waved his hand: "It’s nothing, don’t keep it in your heart, Miss."
"Which is why I prepared a generous gift for you." An ngni continued.
Chen Mo was sowhat curious, "What generous gift?"
An ngni leaned close to his ear, her red lips parted lightly, her crisp voice whispering in:
"Regarding Zhu Jiuyou, Mr. Chen must have many confusions. To understand the cause and effect of this matter, co to Tian Shou Mountain in Northern Border, I will give you the answer then..."
"Rember, you must co alone."
?!
Chen Mo’s heart suddenly skipped a beat!
Turning to look, he saw An ngni’s eyes shining with enchanting brilliance, possessing an entrancing aura!
"Who are you?!" Chen Mo grabbed her shoulder, asking sternly.
"Who I am is not important." An ngni said softly: "You only need to know we are on the sa side, the mastermind won’t just let it go, surely will strike again, don’t delay too long..."
As soon as the words fell, the brilliance in her eyes quickly faded, her expression beca bewildered.
"Mr., Mr. Chen?" She looked at Chen Mo timidly, stamring: "What’s going on? You’re hurting ..."
Chen Mo’s brow furrowed slightly, "Were you possessed?"
An ngni confusedly asked: "What possession?"
The prior experiences in the Secret Realm seed like a dream to her, as if a re observer, watching "herself" and Chen Mo struggling together, extracting knowledge...
Beyond that, she rembered nothing.
Moreover, the accompanying town guardian guard Zhu Shuang was nowhere to be seen.
Chen Mo saw that An ngni wasn’t lying, the disparity in aura between before and after was as if she was replaced by soone else entirely.
"To have such ans, their strength must be formidable, but they didn’t harm in the Secret Realm, even risking moves multiple tis to save , showing no malice."
"She said she knew the secrets of Zhu Jiuyou..."
"Who could it be?"
Chen Mo pondered for a long ti, yet no leads erged.
However, one thing was clear—though Wu Lie failed this ti, he certainly wouldn’t let it go quietly.
The situation was imnsely dangerous, from No Desire Buddha’s move to the activation of the Heaven and Earth Array, deadly peril at every turn, even with three First Grade Grandmasters and the Princess on the scene, still hard to withstand.
If not for the miraculous intervention of the Empress, it might have ended tragically!
Thus demonstrating Wu Lie’s determination, compelling precautionary strategies before facing worse fortune!
"Perhaps, I should indeed find ti for a journey to the Northern Border?"
"But before that, securing personal safety cos first..."
Chen Mo mused quietly, not further troubling An ngni.
Considering the Daoist Venerable and Martial Saint were nearby, the other might be well-prepared for escape, thus pursuit would be futile now.
An ngni’s lips moved slightly, wanting to speak yet failing, cheeks flushed, finally bowed deeply to him and ran off.
At this point, Ji Hongxiu approached.
Watching the flustered back, casually asked: "She’s..."
"Yu Hongyin’s cousin, saved her few tis in the Secret Realm, specially ca to thank ." Chen Mo replied.
Ji Hongxiu nodded, then asked: "I have roughly understood what happened in the Secret Realm. Wuwan Temple’s conduct has already touched the bottom line, I’ll settle accounts with them, but the true mastermind might be soone else..."
"I understand that, rest assured, I’ll handle it." Chen Mo nodded in agreent.
Ji Hongxiu solemnly added: "Rember, the Spirit Jade I gave you is always effective. If in danger, crush it, no matter where you are, even in the depths of the Imperial Palace, I’ll surely co to save you."
Although Chen Mo didn’t explicitly state it, based on others’ descriptions, she could infer so clues.
Creating such a huge commotion likely involved him...
"Hmm, I know." Finding no one around, Chen Mo sneakily extended his little finger, playfully hooked the Daoist Venerable’s palm, "Rest assured, I wouldn’t dare die before marrying you lot."
"Hmph, who’s talking about marriage!" Ji Hongxiu’s cheeks flushed, retorted angrily, "I’m devoted to Dao, never marrying anyone!"
Suddenly realizing sothing amiss, confusedly asked: "Wait, why ’we’? What sly sches are you up to?"
"Uh, that’s not important." Chen Mo changed the subject, saying: "I’ve found two missing Immortal Materials this ti, gathered the basic ingredients, think it’s ti to start refining the Creation Golden Pill?"
Ji Hongxiu suspiciously eyed him, feeling he harbored ulterior motives, shook her head: "Creation Golden Pill can reconstruct the Dao Foundation for the Ultimate Venerable, it’s not seen in centuries, refining it is extrely challenging, extra preparations are essential..."
Chen Mo replied: "If there’s anything I can help with, feel free to say."
"Actually, there is..."
Ji Hongxiu lightly bit her lip, said: "If my cultivation can be enhanced a bit more, maybe refining pills would be more assured."
Chen Mo puzzledly asked: "But how can I assist with that?"
Ji Hongxiu flushed, hesitated, then replied: "I heard from Qingxuan that you gained insight in the Secret Realm, already broke through to Second Grade, which isn’t much lower than my realm, moreover paired with Dragon Qi and the Origin of Cause and Effect, perhaps... maybe we can attempt dual cultivation?"
Chen Mo: (O_o)??
