Old Five is a Goose.

Chapter 102 She Saved Your Life

"You know the reason I was looking for the Fallen Melody Sword, and you've already discovered its secret?" Yin Qianyin asked somewhat awkwardly, and then she understood what was happening. If she could learn about the secret of the Fallen Melody Sword from the cultivation technique crystal ball, naturally, Mo Wuji could too. What she didn't know was that Mo Wuji's discovery of the Fallen Melody Sword's secret was purely accidental. He hadn't even used the inheritance crystal ball for the Invisible Sword yet.

Mo Wuji didn't hide anything anymore. "Yes, the Fallen Melody Sword actually contains a technique, called 'Celestial Shift'."

Yin Qianyin opened the thin parchment, and indeed found that it was the technique Celestial Shift.

Mo Wuji continued to say from the side, "This technique is missing the 'Shift' mantra. Now, this technique belongs to Senior Sister Yin. I only ask that Senior Sister Yin take me along when you go to the Five Elements Desolate Domain for the pill concocting competition. Whether I succeed or not, I won't be at peace for the rest of my life if I don't try."

He could find techniques later, but he had to save Yan'er now. Besides, he had already memorized every word and every cultivation diagram of Celestial Shift.

Yin Qianyin rolled up the parchment again and asked Mo Wuji, "Can I know your relationship with Yan'er?"

As soon as she saw this technique, she knew it was extraordinary. Even if Mo Wuji couldn't cultivate, taking it out showed how important Yan'er was to him.

"Yan'er used to be my personal maid…" There was nothing to hide anyway, so Mo Wuji briefly recounted the story of Yan'er and him in Rao Prefecture.

Hearing about the decline of the Mo family, Yan'er not only didn't leave Mo Wuji on her own but would rather go hungry and emaciated to set up a stall at night to earn money to fulfill Mo Wuji's dream of becoming a prince, never letting Mo Wuji go hungry. Yin Qianyin couldn't help but focus her gaze on Yan'er. There were many loyal maids, but she had never seen a maid who, in the face of starvation, still wanted to satisfy her young master's spiritual desires.

Knowing that Yan'er understood that her spiritual roots were very good, instead of thinking about cultivating immortality, her first question was whether her spiritual roots could be transferred to her young master. There wasn't a single case of this in the cultivation world for countless years. Even if someone was ignorant, they would know that having spiritual roots and not having them was the difference between immortals and mortals.

Unexpectedly, her words became a prophecy, and the spiritual roots were indeed transferred once, fortunately, the transfer failed. If the transfer had succeeded, she would probably have died on the spot and wouldn't have lasted until now.

Even now that her memory was gone and her mind was deranged, she still remembered her young master. Such a person was indeed worth saving by Mo Wuji.

"I can take you to the pill competition location outside the Five Elements Desolate Domain. If you can advance to a Tier 3 Human Pill Master, I can even apply for a participation spot for you. I must remind you again that even if you see Granny Linglong, you won't be able to get her to help you," Yin Qianyin said with a sigh.

She was an Earth Pill Master, so she naturally had more contact than Mo Wuji. Even though Mo Wuji was resolute, she knew that Mo Wuji's chances of asking Granny Linglong for help were almost zero.

Mo Wuji said decisively, "Whether Granny Linglong will help or not, I have to try."

Yin Qianyin didn't persuade him anymore and picked up the parchment in her hand. "Junior Brother Mo, the cave on the cliff beside the Fallen Melody Sword on Suspended Sword Cliff, did you dig it? Did you choose Lotus Sword Peak for this reason?"

Mo Wuji's heart jolted, and he was about to deny it. However, he quickly realized that Yin Qianyin had already asked this, so denying it was meaningless. He simply said sincerely, "Yes, Senior Sister Yin, I did go to Suspended Sword Cliff. How did Senior Sister Yin know?"

Yin Qianyin smiled faintly, "Because I requested to go to Suspended Sword Cliff to retrieve this Fallen Melody Sword myself. Your cave actually helped me once."

After speaking, Yin Qianyin glanced at Yan'er, "She saved your life."

"Ah…" Mo Wuji looked at Yin Qianyin in confusion, and then he understood. The broken sword had traces of him prying it open. Yin Qianyin wasn't an idiot, so she could definitely discover the traces of the prying. After not finding the secret of the broken sword, and considering that the sword's edge of the Fallen Melody Sword was obtained by him, and then he moved to Lotus Sword Peak, and now both broken swords had been pried open, and there were fresh digging marks on the cliff, she could definitely guess that he had taken the things inside.

Yin Qianyin saying that Yan'er saved his life meant that if he hadn't taken out this parchment because of Yan'er, she wouldn't have been so easy to talk to when she discovered it.

"Senior Sister Yin, if I didn't take it out, and you discovered that I was the one who moved it, would you kill me?" Mo Wuji asked casually, feeling secretly afraid. He still didn't quite believe that Yin Qianyin would kill him because of this. He had interacted with Yin Qianyin. In his opinion, Yin Qianyin would at most come to force him to hand over the things. This was Mo Wuji's first feeling.

Yin Qianyin shook her head, explaining, "It's not that I want to kill you, but the Sect Master wants to kill you."

"The Sect Master knows about the secret of the Fallen Melody Sword?" Mo Wuji asked in surprise. If the Sect Master knew, then even if he handed over Celestial Shift now, he would still be on the list to be killed.

Yin Qianyin said, "Do you think that if I didn't say that the Fallen Melody Sword might have a secret, the Sect Master would allow me to take the Fallen Melody Sword? So, the prerequisite for me to obtain the Fallen Melody Sword was to share this secret with the Sect Master. If you hadn't taken out this technique, I would have definitely guessed that you took it, and then I would have been very disappointed, and there would have been no need for me to help you hide it.

Even if I didn't say a word, the Sect Master would have doubts about why I couldn't bring out the secret of the Fallen Melody Sword? He would definitely send someone down to check the location of the Fallen Melody Sword. Seeing the cave on the cliff, do you think he wouldn't ask me? As long as I say that it wasn't dug by me and that it already existed when I went down, what do you think the result would be?"

Mo Wuji broke out in a cold sweat. Yin Qianyin was absolutely right. If he deceived Yin Qianyin and was unwilling to take out Celestial Shift, why would Yin Qianyin help him smooth things over? As long as Yin Qianyin didn't help him smooth things over, even if she didn't tell the Sect Master that the sword's edge of the Fallen Melody Sword had once been obtained by Mo Wuji, the Sect Master of the Unblemished Sword Sect could investigate him. Because the time he moved to Lotus Sword Peak was too coincidental with the time a cave was dug out on Suspended Sword Cliff. So, Yin Qianyin was absolutely right in saying that Yan'er saved his life.

Yin Qianyin raised the parchment in her hand, "Junior Brother Mo, you saved my life, and now you treat me with sincerity. I, Yin Qianyin, am not an ungrateful person. I can't give you this Celestial Shift technique, because the Sect Master also wants to see it. I have taken over those possible problems for you. And one more thing I want to tell you is that this Celestial Shift is likely not a technique. Whether you have memorized the contents or not, don't reveal it easily."

"If it's not a technique, what could it be?" Mo Wuji asked quickly. He had indeed memorized everything on the two volumes of parchment.

Yin Qianyin replied, "This may be a Divine Ability. To be specific, my cultivation level is too low, and my experience is too little, so I'm not very clear…"

"Hey, is it because you are a guest pill master, you think that you are a big shot? I will slap you to death..." A rough and loud voice rang outside the house, interrupting Yin Qianyin's words, followed by a gust of wind sweeping towards Mo Wuji's house.

Yin Qianyin, who was still talking to Mo Wuji, took a step forward and slapped out with her palm as well.

"Boom!" The sound of a huge collision exploded outside Mo Wuji's house. Mo Wuji quickly followed, seeing Yin Qianyin standing face to face with a man with a face full of橫肉 (hengrou - fat). In the middle of the two, it looked as if it had been plowed over, looking very messy.
