Old Five is a Goose.
Chapter 893: An Exquisitely Intelligent Woman
Looking at the woman’s surprised expression, Mo Wuji knew that she had not intentionally saved him, but had done so unintentionally. This woman was much prettier than Xi Nianmo, but her face was pale and her breath disordered, probably because she was pregnant and seriously injured.
“In any case, thank you.” Mo Wuji cupped his fists at the woman, took a step, and his spiritual will permeated out at the same time.
Even if Xi Jing didn't kill this woman, she shouldn't be qualified to come here. Since this woman came here, it meant there was something strange.
“Wait…” The woman thought Mo Wuji wanted to leave, and quickly called out.
Even if the woman didn’t call out, Mo Wuji would have waited. The Thunder Sword Manor in his spiritual will had already become a ruin. Apart from a few corpses, it was as if there had been an earthquake here.
The greenery outside the Thunder Sword Manor was now desolate. Everything showed that a catastrophe had happened to the Thunder Sword Manor.
“What happened to the Thunder Sword Manor?” Mo Wuji stared at the woman and asked in a deep voice.
This woman’s cultivation should be stronger than his, but Mo Wuji was not afraid.
“You’re not…” After hearing Mo Wuji’s words, which were crisp and neat, and seeing Mo Wuji’s expression, the woman knew that Mo Wuji’s previous stupidity in the Thunder Sword Manor was fake.
Mo Wuji knew what the woman meant, and said indifferently, “I’m indeed not completely an idiot, but my spiritual channels and primordial spirit are indeed gone.”
“I understand, you’re like me. I was just caught by those two beasts, Fan Chong and his mother, and ended up being defiled by Fan Chong. I thought Xi Jing would definitely kill you, but I didn’t expect him not to.” The woman struggled to get up.
Mo Wuji was secretly shocked and didn’t speak. This woman was too shrewd. Xi Jing had indeed ordered Xi Yibo to kill him. If he hadn’t had the Poison Transformation Meridian, how could he still be alive? This woman should have accidentally obtained the formation plate to enter this place, thinking that Xi Jing’s secluded cultivation place really had good things as Xi Jing had said. That's why she came to find treasures after the Thunder Sword Manor was in trouble.
“I accidentally got Xi Yibo’s ring and came here to look for healing pills. I didn’t expect to see you were okay.” The woman seemed to understand what Mo Wuji meant and explained self-deprecatingly.
As expected, she was a shrewd woman. Mo Wuji didn’t want to interact with this woman too much. However, he was indeed saved by this woman, so he had to say, “Xi Yibo probably didn’t want the young lady to be sad, so he spared my life. I didn’t plan to survive anyway. I didn’t expect you to open this secluded place. You can be considered to have saved my life. I’m leaving soon. Is there anything you need me to help you with?”
“I’m seriously injured and it’s difficult to heal, so I wanted to see if there were any healing pills in Xi Jing’s secluded place. Now it looks like there aren’t.” The woman had already seen that Mo Wuji didn’t have a ring in his hand. When she opened the secluded cultivation protection formation just now, it was empty, so there were obviously no items inside.
Mo Wuji said truthfully, “That’s right, my ring was robbed, and there’s indeed nothing inside.”
“Can you send me to the Nine Transformations God Sect? I know it’s difficult for you, but if I don’t go to the Nine Transformations God Sect, I’ll definitely die. I was ambushed by that pair of dog mother and son, Fan Lin and Fan Chong. Originally, as long as Fan Chong obtained the position of Manor Lord of the Thunder Sword Manor, it would be my death date. I didn’t expect Xi Jing to be able to come back, allowing me to escape the control of that pair of mother and son.” The woman’s tone carried a hint of pleading and anticipation.
Although Mo Wuji wanted to help, he still shook his head and said, “You know my strength is low. I can only take you away from this Thunder Sword Manor. As for the Nine Transformations God Sect, I’ve never even heard of it, let alone have the travel expenses to take you there.”
Hearing that Mo Wuji was willing to help, but only because he didn’t have travel expenses and didn’t know the way, the woman quickly said, “Senior Brother Mo, the Nine Transformations God Sect is considered a big sect in the God Domain. My master is even the peak lord of the Nine Transformations God Sect. If you take me there, I can definitely let you join the Nine Transformations God Sect.”
“But I don’t have spiritual roots or a primordial spirit,” Mo Wuji said doubtfully. Because he could cultivate, he didn’t understand the other party’s meaning.
Seeing that Mo Wuji didn’t understand her meaning, the woman had to say, “Senior Brother Mo, you don’t have a primordial spirit or spiritual roots anymore, and you can’t cultivate. It’s really dangerous in the God Domain. I can guarantee that you can become an outer disciple of the Nine Transformations God Sect. An outer disciple can have independent accommodation and receive some cultivation resources. Even if you can’t cultivate, you can still start a family and live a peaceful life.
Of course, even if you arrive at the sect, I suggest you still be as dull as you were when you first arrived at the Thunder Sword Manor. That way, no one will regard you as an opponent, and you won’t offend anyone.”
Mo Wuji’s heart stirred. He was not familiar with the God Domain at all. If he could find a sect to protect him and cultivate secretly, it would indeed be a good thing. As for the woman being scheming and shrewd, what did it have to do with him? He was just an outer disciple in the sect and couldn’t come into contact with her world at all.
Thinking of this, he cupped his fists and said, “I agree. I haven’t asked for the senior sister’s esteemed name. The senior sister’s strength is far superior to mine, so don’t call me senior brother. Call me junior brother.”
Hearing Mo Wuji agree, the woman said happily, “Okay, Junior Brother Mo. My name is Liu Ruoting, and my master is Xiang Weiyang, the peak lord of the Lilac Peak of the Nine Transformations God Sect. Xi Jing, the Manor Lord of the Thunder Sword Manor, has provoked very powerful enemies. More than a month ago, he just sent you here through Xi Yibo, and his enemies chased after him. The Thunder Sword Manor, apart from Xi Nianmo, should have been completely destroyed.”
“Xi Nianmo didn’t die?” Mo Wuji was still grateful to Xi Nianmo.
Xi Nianmo took him away from the Burial God Valley and saved him from Xi Jing's hands. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, Mo Wuji would remember the kindness.
“Yes, she’s also here. When I used the talisman left by my master to hide, I saw Xi Jun also using a magic weapon to conceal her aura…” Liu Ruoting replied.
Mo Wuji said apologetically, “Senior Sister Liu, you know that Xi Nianmo also saved me. If you know where she is, please tell me, Senior Sister Liu. I hope I can save her.”
Liu Ruoting smiled slightly, “Junior Brother Mo, I was planning to save her anyway. Without her ring, we really can’t return to the Nine Transformations God Sect.”
Mo Wuji thought to himself, this woman really had everything planned out. He just didn’t know how such a powerful woman fell into the hands of Fan Lin and Fan Chong's mother and son, and even lost her virginity and became pregnant.
The place where Xi Nianmo was hiding was not far from Mo Wuji. Under Liu Ruoting’s guidance, Mo Wuji quickly found a broken stone tablet.
“It’s inside this stone tablet.” Liu Ruoting pointed at the stone tablet and said. She was seriously injured and had difficulty walking, so she had no ability to open the stone tablet.
Although Mo Wuji was not yet considered a cultivator in the God Realm, his strength was not low. He was in the late stage of Immortal Emperor, and not an ordinary late stage Immortal Emperor.
Under Liu Ruoting’s guidance, Mo Wuji easily broke open the stone tablet. As Liu Ruoting said, after the stone tablet was broken, Xi Nianmo, with her eyes closed, appeared in front of Mo Wuji.
Xi Nianmo was covered in blood and her aura was disordered.
Liu Ruoting took the initiative to pinch the space between Xi Nianmo’s eyebrows. After a moment, Xi Nianmo opened her eyes. When she saw Mo Wuji and Liu Ruoting, she jumped up and cried out in surprise.
Xi Nianmo should have instantly remembered what happened before. She didn’t have time to ask why Mo Wuji appeared here and was with Liu Ruoting, and said urgently, “Where’s my father?”
Liu Ruoting sighed and said, “The Thunder Sword Manor has all fallen. Only the three of us are still alive. I come from the Nine Transformations God Sect. If Senior Sister Xi is willing to go with us, we’ll go to the Nine Transformations God Sect. We don’t have a single God Crystal on us, so Senior Sister Xi needs to pay for the travel expenses. After arriving at the Nine Transformations God Sect, I guarantee that Senior Sister can join the God Sect.”
A sad expression appeared in Xi Nianmo’s eyes. She didn’t cry or say any sad nonsense, but stood up and bowed to Liu Ruoting and said, “Nianmo doesn’t even have a home now. It’s Nianmo’s blessing that Senior Sister Liu can take me in. As for the title of Senior Sister, Nianmo is unworthy.”
As she spoke, she was about to take out an empty ring and put the God Crystals in it to give to Liu Ruoting.
Having experienced many things, she had long understood how to survive. Moreover, before she lost consciousness, she personally saw her father being hit by several attacks.
Liu Ruoting pushed the ring back to Xi Nianmo, “Nianmo, keep the ring with you. When the teleportation array or flying ship needs to be paid for with crystals, you can pay.”
“Okay.” Xi Nianmo nodded and put away the ring. From beginning to end, she didn’t ask why Mo Wuji was alive, why he was still here. Perhaps she knew that Mo Wuji was intellectually disabled.
(That's all for today's update, good night friends!)
