Chapter 730: Entering Wu Wen city
Translator: Timothy_ Editor: GlobeGlotter
"En." Mu Xiaoyun was squirmed into Ye Mo's arms like a cat.
Ye Mo knew that the Primordial Fortune Chant needed large amounts of resources. After he taught this cultivation method to Mu Xiaoyun, he gave most of his pills and spirit stone to Mu Xiaoyun as well as the gold cheques. He just left a few essence increasing pills and some other ordinary pills for himself.
"Ye babe, what if they ask me to study the Ice Lake cultivation method?" Mu Xiaoyun thought that after Ye Mo left, she would enter the core sector.
Ye Mo smiled, "Just cultivate the Primordial Fortune Chant, you don't need to cultivate the Ice Lake cultivation method. It's enough if you just have a look and use your chi to imitate the moves when necessary. "
"En."
Soon, the day became night and because Mu Xiaoyun worked too hard during the day, she fell asleep as soon as she went to bed after dinner.
Ye Mo didn't sleep. He added some Geng Metal Essence to Mu Xiaoyun's flying sword and made a few more bottles of pills and left that in Mu Xiaoyun's ring before going to sleep.
He didn't know how long he would be gone this time. He didn't want Mu Xiaoyun's cultivation to stop because she didn't have enough pills.
When it was the next day, Ye Mo made breakfast and came to the bedside, kissed Mu Xiaoyun who was sound asleep, and said softly, "Xiaoyun, I'm going. Cultivate hard, remember to eat well, and sleep well. Wait for me to come back."
Then, Ye Mo left. His spirit sense had already picked up on Ji Yilan who was coming over. Ye Mo didn't have anything to say to her, so he just climbed onto his flying sword and shot up into the sky.
Ye Mo knew that Mu Xiaoyun had just woken up, but he didn't call out to her anymore.
Mu Xiaoyun ran to the door barefoot and looked at the sword as it disappeared. She couldn't control her tears. She had woken up once in the middle of the night, really wanting Ye Mo to just hug her and sleep, but she knew Ye Mo had things to do then, and she knew it now too.
"Martial Sister Xiaoyun, what are you?" Ji Yilan had come again wanting to persuade Ye Mo into letting Mu Xiaoyun go, but she saw Mu Xiaoyun standing at the door barefoot and crying.
Mu Xiaoyun wiped her endless tears and sniffed, "Husband has left."
"Huh?" Ji Yilan was shook but immediately understood how good this was.
That Mo Ying probably realized that it wasn't good to keep Mu Xiaoyun here, so he left Ice Lake. Thinking about this, Ji Yilan had a much better impression of him.
But Ji Yilan immediately thought, 'Mo Ying is just an ordinary person, it's practically suicide for him to leave this mountain range.'
But as Ji Yilan looked at the still deeply sad Mu Xiaoyun, she didn't dare to say that. What if she chased Mo Ying like crazy? Besides, Mo Ying's death would be good for Mu Xiaoyun. After some time and after meeting more people, she would forget about her husband."
"Xiaoyun, what is this food on the table?" Ji Yilan saw the fully prepared breakfast on the table and asked. It was exquisitely laid out and had everything you could want. Even Ji Yilan couldn't help but gulp once.
"Your husband made it and-" Ji Yilan asked in shock.
Mu Xiaoyun nodded, "Yes, husband made it for me."
Ji Yilan suddenly felt some enlightenment. She didn't think that coarse-looking man would be this meticulous. Was this the reason why Mu Xiaoyun couldn't leave him? Ji Yilan quickly shook her head, that was impossible.
Mu Xiaoyun calmed her mood and let Ji Yilan sit down while she cleaned herself and changed, "Martial Sister Yilan, if you haven't had breakfast then eat some."
"Then I won't say no." Ji Yilan had long since wanted to eat the food on the table, but she had been embarrassed to ask.
When Ji Yilan bit the lotus leaf egg, she immediately knew that this wasn't something ordinary people could make. She subconsciously asked Mu Xiaoyun, "Xiaoyun, is your husband a chef?"
"No, he isn't." Mu Xiaoyun shook her head.
Soon, Ji Yilan finished and looked at Mu Xiaoyun in embarrassment, "Sorry, Xiaoyun, your husband's cooking is too good, I ate a little much."
"It's fine, when my husband comes back he will cook me more." Mu Xiaoyun shook her head.
Ji Yilan just wanted to talk when she felt a heat rise up in her body, and her inner qi seemed more condensed.
Mu Xiaoyun explained, "That's normal, Martial Sister Yilan, don't worry, husband likes to put some herbs in his cooking. It's good for cultivation."
"Eh?" Ji Yilan looked at Mu Xiaoyun in shock. That was easy to say, but it was very hard to mix herbs into cooking. Was her husband a herbal master? Should she tell grandma?
Ji Yilan thought and shook her head - it would be best not to. If wouldn't be good if that caused more trouble.
"Xiaoyun, now that your husband left Ice Lake, why don't you come live with me?" Ji Yilan remembered her main purpose.
Mu Xiaoyun nodded.
…
Wu Wen City - it was a not-too-small city in the hidden sects. It was 150 km from Wu Wen Mountain, and there were always people there. Some were merchants, but most people there were ancient martial artists who came to gather herbs in the surroundings. Some sects also looked for disciples there.
Although Wu Wen Mountain itself which had an abundance of herbs was only accessible once every five years with limited spots, the countless mountain ranges near it also had many herbs. Sometimes, pretty rare herbs were found. Hence, many people picked herbs there.
As soon as those who gathered herbs left the mountain, there would be people ready to buy them. After some time, this cycle of supply and demand formed Wu Wen City.
Ye Mo headed straight to Wu Wen City after leaving Ice Lake. Others would need a week to get to Wu Wen Mountain from Ice Lake, but Ye Mo took less than an hour.
There were still five months left before the mist would dissipate, but Ye Mo wouldn't wait that long to go in with others.
After half an hour, Ye Mo saw Wu Wen City. He came down from his flying sword and entered it.
Ye Mo wanted to buy some daily items and then find out more about Wu Wen Mountain.
But as soon as he entered the city, he noticed a huge uproar.
Chapter 731: I Like To Kill Taiyi Sect's People
Translator: Timothy_ Editor: GlobeGlotter
"You people are so unreasonable!" a coarse female voice sounded.
After that, someone immediately sneered, "Unreasonable? Our Taiyi Sect is a special grade sect, how could we be unreasonable to people like you? Many people here saw it, who didn't follow the rules first? You took back your words and you're saying that I, Jin Cangliang, am being unreasonable!?"
Ye Mo shook his head. He was about to walk away, but his spirit sense scanned what the man next to the woman held in his hand and immediately stopped. He covered his face with a black cloth and squeezed into the crowd. He didn't want what he did there to affect Mu Xiaoyun. Luckily, most of people's attention was caught by the ruckus and no one noticed Ye Mo.
On one side, there were two Taiyi Sect members and a servant next to them. In front of three members, there were a man and a woman. They seemed to be a couple. The woman was good-looking and the man looked very sturdy.
Ye Mo had squeezed into the crowd because he had seen a handful of blood cherries in the man's hand.
Blood cherries were one of the main ingredients for making the great chi increasing pill. In the cultivation realm, a blood cherry could be sold for 30 spirit stones.
"What's wrong?" Ye Mo intervened.
Ye Mo was dressed very ordinarily and had a strange smell.
Everyone just glanced at Ye Mo and didn't reply to him. They were very confused as to why someone with his face covered would do this. He was covering his face to avoid trouble, wasn't he?
"You have no business here. If you don't want trouble, p*ss off," a Taiyi Sect member sneered.
The woman wouldn't let it go, of course. She said, "My husband and I have been gathering herbs near the Wu Wen City and we were lucky to find 12 blood cherries. However, these two people here are using their sect's name as a mean to buy our herbs for a low price. We don't want to sell it, but they're trying to force us."
"Yan Xin, just give them what they want. We can't mess with them, but we can avoid it," the man said.
Ye Mo laughed, "So, you're forcing them to sell the cherries? How can there be such shameless people in the world?"
"Who are you calling shameless?! We're from the Taiyi Sect, choose your words carefully." That sect member didn't seem scared at all, he was instead threatening Ye Mo.
The other sect member stepped forward and said, "Friend, we never tried to force them. These two found the blood cherries and were selling them here. Two people wanted to buy them and I said the highest bidder should get its. They agreed but after I made a bid, no one did anymore. How is this forcing someone? Friend, reason with us, are they taking their word back or are we forcing them to sell it?"
"Oh, how much did you offer?" Ye Mo suddenly asked.
"50 gold coins," the man hesitated and said.
Ye Mo sneered. Here, just a blood cherry was worth 600 gold coins, yet he wanted to buy 12 for 50. Moreover, he had said it in such a self-righteous way.
Ye Mo looked around and immediately realized that simply no one dared to bid, not because they didn't want to bid.
Thinking about this, Ye Mo smiled to the couple, "Two friends, these two men are right. You're selling stuff. The highest bidder should get it, or is it that the lowest bidder get it?"
"You-" The woman was at a loss for words. She had been hoping for Ye Mo to help them out, but that random guy who had stood up for them was actually sucking up to the two people from Taiyi Sect.
"Hahaha! Friend, you have wits. Of course, the highest bidder gets it," the one who had told Ye Mo to piss off laughed. He had just realized that this man was also sucking up to them.
The people around shook their heads, but they were used to it.
But before the Taiyi Sect member finished laughing, Ye Mo took out a 10k gold cheque and gave it to the man, "I'll pay 10k gold coins. My offer is higher than their's, right? If you're satisfied with it, then these blood cherries belong to me."
"Huh!" the man was dazed.
The woman saw this and immediately reacted. She handed out the blood cherries and took the gold cheque, "Very satisfied, very satisfied."
Then, she looked at him gratefully and said, "Thank you."
"You're f*cking asking to die!" One of Taiyi sect member had reacted and was about to attack.
Ye Mo's expression sunk - a curved sword suddenly appeared in his hand. A ray flashed in front of his eyes and the sect member was cut in half.
Blood was splurged onto the streets and the crowd turned silent. In Wu Wen City, there were frequent fights, but even if these were to death, they weren't resolved in the city. However, this man was so brutal that he had killed someone inside the city and what's more, it was someone from the Taiyi Sect! It was absurd.
"You- you dare to kill one of our Taiyi Sect disciples!" the other member pointed at Ye Mo in fury and shock. But before he could finish, Ye Mo's sword flashed again and he was also cut in half.
The remaining servant was scared and pale. Yet he knew that if he said any kind of bullsh*t, he would be killed immediately.
The couple also hadn't expected Ye Mo to kill inside the city, and especially not someone from the Taiyi Sect.
But the woman reacted fast. She knew that if they didn't leave quickly, they would be dead for sure too.
She took out a booklet and gave it to Ye Mo, "Big Brother, this is yours. You should leave quickly. We'll be leaving too."
Then she dragged the man out and quickly left.
Ye Mo smiled. He had killed them intentionally, of course. He had come seeking revenge against the Taiyi Sect and it was just the beginning. He didn't believe that anyone in the city could do anything to him. By the time the masters came, he would be in the Wu Wen Mountain.
Ye Mo opened the booklet. It was a map of where the popular herbs were, it was very detailed. Ye Mo put the booklet away and felt grateful to that woman.
As soon as Ye Mo did this, at least six ancient martial artists landed next to him. There was one at half step great heaven, three at earth primary stage, one at earth middle and one at earth tertiary stage.
"Friend, you dare to kill inside the Wu Wen City! Put down your weapon and come with us!" the earth level tertiary stage martial artist said.
Ye Mo suddenly sneered, "Is there anyone from the Taiyi Sect here?"
"I'm from the Taiyi Sect! What are you going to do? You're a mere black level, yet you dare to kill someone from Taiyi in this city," the earth level man said with a cold voice. If it wasn't that he didn't know who Ye Mo was yet, he would've killed him already.
"Great, I like to kill Taiyi Sect's people." Then, Ye Mo moved.
The earth level tertiary stage man seemed to see a sword ray come down from his forehead. He was scared to death and wanted to dodge without thinking, but as soon as he tried to move, an invisible force pushed him back to where he was.
Then, he felt his head was cold. "Inner qi wall- Great heaven-" Then, his mind sunk into darkness.
The five people were shocked. An earth level tertiary stage martial artist couldn't even last a single attack?
