Sotis reality is harsher than rumors.
When Ye Yu entered the Mo family estate, what greeted him was not a grandiose complex but a vast stretch of ruins.
He couldn’t help but wonder if he had co to the wrong place.
The scene here was worlds apart from what he had seen outside the gates.
Sensing the change in Ye Yu’s expression, Mo Jiuming felt sowhat embarrassed and quietly said, “Please forgive the sight, Immortal Friend. The Mo family recently suffered a calamity.
So it’s quite a ss now—please pardon us.
But a few days ago I ordered the formation to be rebuilt.
Once it’s completed, the Mo family will surely be restored to its forr glory.”
No sooner had he finished speaking,
A golden light suddenly shimred ahead,
Spreading out in ripples.
Wherever the light touched, the ruins began to automatically restructure and rge,
Forming ancient-style immortal buildings.
Within monts,
The Mo family’s forr splendor was restored.
At least, that was how it appeared.
Seeing this, Mo Jiuming and the disciples behind him all smiled.
“A ho with people can thrive.”
The earlier awkwardness was forgotten, and Mo Jiuming naturally did not treat his guest carelessly.
He imdiately invited Ye Yu into the main hall,
Ordering clan mbers to serve two cups of fine immortal tea.
After everything was arranged,
Mo Jiuming finally spoke, “Immortal Friend Ye Yu, it’s been a long ti since we parted from Wu Wei Tower.
I wonder what brings you here this ti?”
Ye Yu spoke softly, “I heard about the turmoil in the Mo family and wanted to check if you were alright.
However, I also heard there were rumors of ghost immortal aura near your clan.
Is that true or false?”
No sooner had Ye Yu spoken than he felt multiple divine senses locking onto him.
Mo Jiuming’s expression remained calm as he smiled, “So, Immortal Friend, you ca because of this matter.
I won’t hide it any longer.
Indeed, so ti ago, there was suspected ghost immortal aura near the Mo family.
We were very curious and imdiately sent immortals to investigate.
Unfortunately, they returned empty-handed.
I guess that ghost immortal probably fled.
It’s strange, though—do ghost immortals really co to the Heavenly Realm?
Before this, I hadn’t encountered any.
I only heard from the elders that this was the ghost immortal aura.”
“Fled?” Ye Yu looked at Mo Jiuming intently, searching for any hint of deception.
But Mo Jiuming seed unusually composed,
Even asking, “What, Immortal Friend doesn’t believe ?”
“I do, how could I not?
If you say it fled, then it fled.
Honestly, I’m just curious.”
Ye Yu slowly rose and continued, “Very well, I won’t keep you.
I’ll go check elsewhere.”
Mo Jiuming did not try to detain him.
He quietly said, “Then Immortal Friend can look elsewhere.
If you find real ghost immortal aura, don’t forget to call to witness it.”
“Certainly!”
Ye Yu agreed readily.
Afterward, to show respect, Mo Jiuming personally escorted him out.
Throughout, the new Mo family head never once ntioned the Mo family ancestor’s sword pearl.
It was as if the obsession that lasted a hundred years no longer mattered now.
Ye Yu had no intention to bring it up either.
At the Mo family gate,
Mo Jiuming watched Ye Yu’s departing figure, eyes narrowing slightly.
Nearby, the space suddenly distorted.
A Mo family disciple in black robes appeared.
He transmitted his thoughts: “Clan Head, this person already asked about the ghost immortal matter.
Why not just eliminate him?”
Mo Jiuming replied, “Kill him just for asking casually? Do you think I’m a murderous madman?
Rember, a few months ago, he saved my life.
Mo Tian, you and your ★ 𝐍𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 ★ n are not to touch him!”
Hearing this, the middle-aged immortal nad Mo Tian knelt on one knee and said solemnly, “Yes, Clan Head.”
Mo Jiuming folded his sleeves and looked at the dozen or so immortals outside, squinting slightly.
“What are those people up to?”
Mo Tian answered, “They’re scattered cultivators hoping to beco our retainers.
I’ve checked them—all at best early Heavenly Immortal Realm.
No value, but persistent.
They’ve stood outside the Mo family gate for a long ti.”
Mo Jiuming shook his head slightly.
“Kill them all—eyesores.
Also, check who spread the rumor about ghost immortals in our clan.
Make sure they shut up forever!”
Mo Tian responded again and gave the immortals outside a bloodthirsty glare.
anwhile,
After leaving the Mo family,
Ye Yu did not return directly to Wu Wei Tower.
Instead, he went to an immortal mountain three thousand li away and waited.
After several hours,
A fairy dressed as a Mo family maid quietly arrived.
It turned out that when Ye Yu asked Mo Jiuming about the ghost immortal aura,
He had sensed multiple divine senses locking on him,
One coming from the maid behind him.
At that mont, Ye Yu realized the ghost immortal aura was definitely no baseless rumor.
Otherwise, it wouldn’t have drawn so much attention.
What was strange was that those locking on his divine sense were mostly late Heavenly Immortal Realm or above,
Even two were Golden Core Realm.
So why was such a lowly maid so agitated?
Though puzzled, Ye Yu did not look back at the maid,
Instead he directly proposed leaving.
Since Mo Jiuming had been so straightforward,
Lingering longer wouldn’t yield results.
Better to leave first and investigate slowly.
But the mont Ye Yu got up,
A strange female voice echoed in his mind.
“Midnight, three thousand li east at the immortal mountain.”
Because of this,
The scene unfolded now.
When Ye Yu saw the maid, he was not too surprised.
He quietly asked, “Immortal maiden, may I ask why you summoned here?”
The maid did not speak imdiately.
She cautiously looked around.
After confirming no one else was nearby,
She softly said, “My na is Mo Xiang, a maid of the Mo family.
I called you here to propose a trade.”
Ye Yu raised an eyebrow and couldn’t help but smile.
“What trade do you want to make?”
“Help save soone, and I will tell you what I know about the ghost immortal aura.
I guess your relationship with Mo Jiuming is just ordinary?
Otherwise, you wouldn’t have left so quickly today.”
As she spoke, Mo Xiang trembled slightly.
It was clear she was extrely frightened.
