The majority of the teleportation arrays leading to Yongying Immortal City are built outside the city. When Mo Wuji and Ling Gu walked out of the teleportation array, Yongying Immortal City was crowded with people.

When he first arrived at Spiked Horn Immortal Market, Mo Wuji felt that it had the most cultivators he had ever seen in any city. Now, the number of people outside Yongying Immortal City was no less than that outside Spiked Horn Immortal Market. Mo Wuji was well aware that this was because of the upcoming Grand Pill Dao Competition. Once the competition was over, the number of people in Yongying Immortal City would decrease drastically. This was different from Spiked Horn Immortal Market, which was always crowded.

If the people of Yongying Immortal City were as numerous as those in Spiked Horn Immortal Market, Yongying Immortal City was much more high-end. Standing far outside the city gate, Mo Wuji could feel the aura of an imperial capital.

Immortal music lingered, and purple energy shrouded the city. The jade pillars on both sides radiated auspiciousness under the neon lights. At the gate of an ordinary immortal city, even if there were cultivators guarding it, there would only be one or two. However, outside Yongying Immortal City, there were two full squads of immortals standing guard. All the immortals wore uniform attire and carried the same magical treasures, at least giving off a powerful aura.

Mo Wuji and Ling Gu entered the immortal city, and there seemed to be even more people inside than outside. In such a crowded place, there was definitely no accommodation available.

Mo Wuji was not worried. With his status, as long as he found the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance, there would be plenty of places to stay. However, Mo Wuji didn't plan to do that. His priority was not to find a place to stay, but to find a way to register for the Grand Pill Dao Competition.

"Big Brother Mo, where are we going now? Are we going to the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance?" Ling Gu had come here solely to accompany Mo Wuji.

Mo Wuji waved his hand. "No, I'll take a look at which forces are participating first... Oh, I see an acquaintance. I'll go say hello."

Ling Gu also saw the two women ahead. The acquaintance Mo Wuji mentioned must be these two women. She hesitated and said, "My master doesn't have a good reputation here. Should I find a place to stay first and then give you a message after I've settled down?"

Mo Wuji thought it made sense. Ling Gu was only here to accompany him, and her presence had nothing to do with his participation in the upcoming Grand Pill Dao Competition.

Thinking of this, he took out his honorary elder's identity plaque and handed it to Ling Gu. "If you can't find a place to stay, go to the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance and say that I asked you to help find an inn."

Ling Gu knew that there was no need to be polite at this time. She quickly accepted the identity plaque, thanked him, and bid farewell to Mo Wuji.

Mo Wuji walked quickly, catching up with the two women ahead. With a smile, he clasped his fists in greeting to the taller woman on the left wearing a blue dress. "Greetings, Senior Sister. I wonder how Senior Sister Wen Lianxi is doing?"

Mo Wuji didn't know the name of this tall woman. When Wen Lianxi saved him, this tall woman was standing beside Wen Lianxi.

The reason he came forward to say hello was to thank Wen Lianxi, and also to inquire which forces participating in the competition lacked pill refiners. He didn't know anyone here.

"You are?" The tall woman was stopped by Mo Wuji and looked at him with confusion.

"My name is Mo Xinghe." Mo Wuji was a little embarrassed. He didn't expect her to have completely forgotten him, but he didn't have a good impression of this woman either. Although she had a pair of friendly, intelligent eyes, he didn't like that she had scanned his storage bag with her spiritual sense.

"Ah, I remember now, it's you. I didn't expect you to come to Yongying Immortal Domain. It's really..."

The woman didn't finish her sentence. Mo Wuji could guess what she meant: she didn't expect him to be able to come to Yongying Immortal City. As for Mo Wuji changing his name to Mo Xinghe, she didn't find it strange at all. Obviously, she didn't care what Mo Wuji was called before.

"Yes, yes, it's me. Thank you very much, Senior Sister Wen, for saving me once. I wonder if Senior Sister Wen is in Yongying Immortal City?" Mo Wuji said with a smile.

Mo Wuji still had a good impression of Wen Lianxi. Although he didn't know why Wen Lianxi took back even a first-grade pill furnace in the end, Mo Wuji didn't care.

He wasn't the kind of narrow-minded person who only remembered the bad things others had done. Not to mention that the pill furnace originally belonged to Wen Lianxi, just the fact that Wen Lianxi had helped him once was enough to make him grateful. Moreover, Wen Lianxi had already poisoned him but didn't want him to help, and then actively detoxified him. A more ruthless cultivator would not have done what Wen Lianxi did. At least they wouldn't actively help detoxify.

The blue-skirted tall woman's expression softened. She said calmly, "Senior Sister Wen is doing well, you don't need to worry. I have something to do, so I won't talk to you anymore."

After speaking, she signaled to the woman beside her and quickly turned to leave.

Mo Wuji opened his mouth, but this was too dismissive. Then he shook his head. Not to mention his ordinary appearance now, even if he were richly dressed, she probably wouldn't give him a second glance. There were countless people like this, and Mo Wuji could only ignore it.

There was still some time before the Grand Pill Dao Competition, so Mo Wuji decided to go to an inn first to inquire about Zuo Yixian or Cang Heng's news. Such a big event in Yongying Immortal Domain, if Cang Heng and Zuo Yixian had returned, they would definitely come to Yongying Immortal City. He had helped them both a lot in the Shattered Realm, so he believed that getting a participation slot shouldn't be a problem.

……

"Wenhui, did that person know Lianxi just now?" After getting far away from Mo Wuji, the other woman walking with the blue-skirted woman asked.

The blue-skirted woman said casually, "He's a rogue cultivator from Yongying Corner. Lianxi kindly saved his life back then. He was probably still an Earth Immortal at the time. I didn't expect him to have some ability. In just a few years, he actually advanced to the Heaven Immortal Realm and came to Yongying Immortal Domain from Yongying Corner."

"But I think his aptitude is very ordinary. He looks very mediocre, and I can't even sense a hint of spiritual charm. Can such an aptitude enter the Heaven Immortal Realm?" The other woman was still a little puzzled.

The blue-skirted woman still didn't care. "I think he probably encountered some opportunity. It's best not to pay attention to this kind of person. Lianxi was found by him because she saved him once... Ji Ying, we're here."

As they were talking, they arrived at the gate of a very high-end hall. The two women took out their name cards, and someone immediately led them inside.

Inside the hall, forty or fifty people had already gathered, either sitting or standing. There were more women, accounting for as much as 80%. Everyone had fragrant immortal fruits and immortal wine beside them. Everyone was leisurely chatting or discussing some gossip.

"Wenhui, I was about to send you a message. I didn't expect you to arrive." A slightly haggard voice came, followed by a stunning young woman wearing a light green dress. The young woman not only sounded haggard, but also looked very haggard.

"Lianxi, you've lost weight again," the blue-skirted woman said helplessly.

Although the young woman in the light green dress wasn't wearing a veil this time, if Mo Wuji were here, he would definitely recognize that this young woman was Wen Lianxi.

Wen Lianxi smiled. Before she could speak, another woman laughed and said, "Lianxi is troubled by love. I don't know who has cultivated three lifetimes of good fortune and has the opportunity to be missed by Lianxi. Oh, right, on the way here, we met one of Lianxi's admirers. He was still asking about you. If Wenhui hadn't ignored him, he might have followed us here."

"Who is it?" Wen Lianxi asked casually.

The blue-skirted woman named Wenhui said, "It's that rogue cultivator we met in Yongying Corner back then, wasn't he bragging about being a Pill King or something? Called Mo something."

Saying this, the blue-skirted woman couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh. "That guy probably heard that the Yongying Immortal Domain Grand Pill Dao Competition is starting and is planning to participate in the competition..."

"Ah..." Wen Lianxi exclaimed, and then her eyes lit up as she grabbed the blue-skirted woman. "Wenhui, where is he? Quick, tell me!"

Wen Lianxi's speech was extremely fast, and she couldn't even connect her words properly. Her excited tone and trembling hands showed how uneasy she was at this moment.

"Lianxi, you..." Wenhui looked at Wen Lianxi in confusion.

"Wenhui, tell me quickly!" Wen Lianxi almost cried anxiously.

Seeing Wen Lianxi so anxious, Wenhui didn't dare to ask any more questions and said, "Just now, Ji Ying and I saw him on the street in front. He stopped me to ask about you, but I didn't pay much attention to him. Later, he knew better and didn't pester..."

Before Wenhui could finish speaking, Wen Lianxi had already rushed out.

At this moment, Wen Lianxi wished that her spiritual sense could break through all the restrictions in this place, but in Yongying Immortal Domain, even the distance between streets was restricted by spiritual sense.

A slightly familiar figure flashed through her spiritual sense, followed by that figure entering an inn on this street. Wen Lianxi's heart, which had been hanging in her throat, suddenly pounded violently. She rushed towards the inn, completely disregarding whether her actions were inappropriate.

In Wen Lianxi's memory, she had never had such an exciting moment.

The inn was bustling with people coming and going. Wen Lianxi's eyes swept across the lobby on the first floor. When she saw the figure sitting down in the corner, she couldn't help but feel a stinging sensation in her eyes due to excitement.

In just a few steps, she rushed in and stood in front of Mo Wuji.

"You..." Mo Wuji looked at Wen Lianxi in front of him. This was clearly a strange face, but he felt very familiar.

After hesitating for only a moment, Mo Wuji recognized that the woman in front of him was Wen Lianxi, whom he had asked about earlier. He didn't expect that he had just been asking about Wen Lianxi, and Wen Lianxi was standing in front of him.
