Yan Qianyin also stood up. She understood Mo Wuji's predicament. The moment she left the Formless Blade Sect, Mo Wuji would definitely die. She also knew that she would be leaving the sect soon.
"Elder Xu, sect head is right. Without concrete evidence, Pill Master Mo has the freedom to come and go as he pleases," Yan Qianyin emphasized.
The killing intent in the Second Elder's eyes did not diminish at all, but he still said faintly, "I didn't say that Pill Master Mo doesn't have freedom, but Pill Master Mo can't represent the sect to enter the Five Elements Desolate Domain. This is illogical. As long as Pill Master Mo doesn't go to the Five Elements Desolate Domain, I will not stop you from going anywhere else. After all, the Five Elements Desolate Domain represents the prestige and dignity of the sect. We definitely cannot allow someone who has not been cleared of suspicion to enter. "
Yan Qianyin's face changed. This Second Elder was determined to kill Mo Wuji. Even though the Second Elder said that Pill Master Mo could go to other places, in reality, if she couldn't bring Mo Wuji to the Five Elements Desolate Domain, then Mo Wuji would definitely die.
Just as Yan Qianyin was about to say something, sect head Gu Ran continued, "Let's follow Second Elder's suggestion. Pill Master Mo will temporarily stay in the sect. Pill Master Mo, you should go back first. "
"Yes, sect head." Mo Wuji could only clasp his fists in gratitude before leaving the hall.
He was helpless. Even though the Sect Leader still admired him a little, between him and the Second Elder, the Sect Leader chose the Second Elder without hesitation.
Yan Qianyin's gaze landed on Mo Wuji apologetically. She did say that she would bring Mo Wuji to the Five Elements Desolate Domain. Now that the Grandmaster had spoken, if she were to insist on it, there would be a problem. Not only would they not be able to bring Mo Wuji away, they might even place Mo Wuji in an even more dangerous situation. In reality, the Second Elder's status was not lower than hers. In terms of strength, she was stronger than her. She could not force her to do anything.
He could only wait until the end of the conference and then go to Lotus Sword Peak to help think of a solution.
…
"Senior apprentice brother Mo, it's good that you're alright. I've already packed up my things." Seeing Mo Wuji return, Fei Bingzhu heaved a sigh of relief.
Mo Wuji waved his hand, "Bingzhu, I've packed my things. We'll leave now."
The moment Fei Bingzhu saw Mo Wuji's expression, he knew that things were not so simple. He didn't ask any more questions and hurriedly carried a simple bag with Tao Ao.
Mo Wuji brought Yan 'Er, the Tao Ao couple and Fei Bingzhu. The five of them left the Lotus Sword Summit and left the Formless Blade Sect.
Yan Qianyin could not be counted on. Besides leaving the Formless Blade Sect, Mo Wuji had no other choice. Fortunately, he was not imprisoned in the Formless Blade Sect. Otherwise, he would really be dead.
"How many spirit stones do we have left?" Mo Wuji suddenly asked.
"We still have 1600 spirit stones," Fei Bingzhu hurriedly said, "Senior apprentice brother Mo, are we in a dangerous situation?"
Mo Wuji nodded, "Meng Boyu's backer is the Second Elder, Xu Feibo. I don't know what his relationship with Meng Boyu is, but that old thing definitely wants me dead. Senior apprentice sister Yan no longer has the right to speak. If we don't leave the Formless Blade Sect now, we won't be able to leave anymore. "
"Where are we going?" Fei Bingzhu quickly asked.
"Let's go to Fringe City," Mo Wuji said without hesitation. He heard that Fringe City had a way to get to the Five Elements Desolate Domain. Even though the spirit stones he had might not be enough for the five of them to get to the Five Elements Desolate Domain, he still had the Spirit Strengthening Pill. This pill was priceless. Now that he was at his wit's end, he could only take it out.
Now that the Second Elder was still in a meeting, they had to get to Fringe City before the meeting ended. Otherwise, they might be killed on the way.
From the Formless Blade Sect to Fringe City, it would only take two to four hours if they rode on a flying beast carriage.
Naturally, Mo Wuji would not be stingy with his spirit stones. He directly rented a flying beast carriage, left the Formless Blade Sect, and headed straight for Fringe City.
This was something that the Second Elder did not expect. He did not expect Mo Wuji to be so decisive to leave the Formless Blade Sect and head for Fringe City. Even if he did, he would not have cared. Even if Mo Wuji went to Fringe City, he would not be able to leave. Even if he did, he could still chase after Mo Wuji and kill him.
A service disciple who hugged his thighs actually dared to touch his people. He was simply courting death.
…
Fringe City's North Water Inn. The moment Mo Wuji entered, he was recognised by the waiter. He hurriedly welcomed him with a face full of smiles, "Friend, I have been anxiously waiting for you to come."
Mo Wuji looked at the waiter suspiciously. He had only stayed here twice, and was not considered a distinguished guest. Why was this waiter waiting for him? The reason why he came here was because he was more familiar with this place, and wanted to ask about the transfer array's location.
"Is there something you need from me?" Mo Wuji asked.
The waiter hurriedly said, "It's not me, it's the Nine Moons Pill House's Young House Master who's looking for you …"
Nine Moons Pill House? Mo Wuji repeated the name in his heart, and immediately remembered. Wasn't this the same pill house that he went to sell his pills a few months ago? That shop owner was a stingy person. If not for the fact that he urgently needed spirit stones, he would not have sold his pills to Jiu Yue.
"Friend, please wait a moment. I will immediately help you call the Young House Master …"
"Haha, what a coincidence …" A warm laughter could be heard. Following which, Mo Wuji saw a delicate looking, fair skinned young man walk into the inn. This young man was dressed in linen clothes, and looked very simple.
"Young House Master." The waiter saw this young man walk over, and hurriedly went forward to greet him. Originally, it was the Nine Moons Pill House's Young House Master who was looking for this guest. Now that the Young House Master had arrived, there was naturally no need for him to inform the other party.
"Let me introduce myself. I am Nine Moons Pill House's Zhen Shaoke." This delicate looking man clasped his fists towards Mo Wuji passionately.
Mo Wuji did not think that this was a coincidence. From the waiter's words, and the sudden appearance of this Nine Moons Pill House's Young House Master, he knew that this Young House Master must have visited frequently to check on him.
"Rogue Cultivator Mo Wuji. May I know why the Young House Master is looking for me?" Mo Wuji clasped his fists and said.
He did sell a batch of pills to Nine Moons Pill House, but there was definitely no problem with that batch of pills. If anyone were to say that he suffered a loss, he would be the one who suffered a loss. Therefore, he was not afraid that Zhen Shaoke was looking for trouble with him.
Zhen Shaoke said apologetically, "The truth is that I often come here to wait for Brother Mo. The main reason is that Brother Mo sold a batch of pills to my Nine Moons Pill House. At that time, both the shopkeeper and I were not in the store. The person who dealt with Brother Mo was a manager of my store. He used an extremely low price to purchase Brother Mo's extremely good pills. This made me feel extremely guilty and uneasy. This time, I met Brother Mo because I wanted to make up for the difference. "
So that was the case. Mo Wuji heaved a sigh of relief. He did not expect this Zhen Shaoke to be so strict with his business principles. Previously, Fei Bingzhu was unwilling to take advantage of him because Fei Bingzhu was not a businessman. For a businessman to be able to do this, it was even more commendable. If Nine Moons Pill House always had such principles, then Nine Moons Pill House would definitely not be a small power.
Mo Wuji believed that Zhen Shaoke definitely had other reasons. Perhaps it was because of his pills. He did not dare to say anything else, but the pills he concocted would definitely not be any worse than any other pill refiner of the same tier.
"Many thanks Young House Master." Mo Wuji hurriedly clasped his fists to express his gratitude. He would not pretend to be generous and reject these spirit stones. Now that he was about to leave Fringe City, he urgently needed spirit stones.
Zhen Shaoke waved his hand and said, "Brother Mo, if you think highly of me, you can call me Shaoke. Calling me Young House Master is too formal. Brother Mo, this is not a good place to talk. Why don't we go to my Nine Moons Pill House? "
Mo Wuji thought to himself: I'm not that close with you right? Now that Zhen Shaoke said this, he would not object. "Since that's the case, then I'll have to trouble Young House Master to lead the way."
Zhen Shaoke came in a carriage. His beast carriage was very spacious. Including Mo Wuji's group of five, it did not seem cramped at all.
The beast carriage was very fast. Along the way, Zhen Shaoke did not even mention anything about the pills. He only introduced some of Fringe City's people and customs. His words were considerate of everyone, making them feel like a spring breeze.
In less than half an incense's time, the beast carriage stopped at the Nine Moons Pill House. Zhen Shaoke got someone to receive Yan 'Er and co., while he brought Mo Wuji into a meeting room.
"Brother Mo, if I'm not wrong, you should be a pill refiner right? Did you concoct those pills previously? "After entering the meeting room, Zhen Shaoke did not beat around the bush and asked directly.
Mo Wuji did not hide anything. His identity as a pill refiner was the only bargaining chip he had with others.
"Young House Zhen is right. I am a pill refiner." Mo Wuji guessed that Zhen Shaoke wanted to make use of his identity as a pill refiner, so he simply called him Young House Zhen. He was not very familiar with Zhen Shaoke, so it would be awkward to call him Young House Zhen. Firstly, calling him Young House Zhen could improve his relationship with Zhen Shaoke. Secondly, it would not be awkward.
Hearing that Mo Wuji was indeed a pill refiner, Zhen Shaoke's spirit was lifted. He did not mind Mo Wuji's form of address, and hurriedly asked, "Brother Mo, are you a Tier 2 Mortal Pill Refiner, or?"
Mo Wuji replied calmly, "I'm a Tier 3 Mortal Pill Refiner."
Zhen Shaoke clapped his hands and said with a face full of smiles, "I was right. Pill Master Mo is really a Tier 3 Mortal Pill Refiner. I wonder if Pill Master Mo has heard of my Nine Moons Pill House? "
Mo Wuji said apologetically, "I've always been behind closed doors researching the Pill Dao, so I don't know much about other sects. Please forgive me."
"It's fine, it's fine." Zhen Shaoke waved his hand, and said with a smile, "Let me introduce the Nine Moons Pill House. My Nine Moons Pill House is considered an Earth level power, and has a certain say in the Five Great Empires. Even though it can't be compared to Quasi-Heaven level sects like the Heavenly Temple, it's still slightly higher than the average Earth level sects. "
Zhen Shaoke did not want to be humble when it came to roping in Mo Wuji.
Mo Wuji remained calm and waited for Zhen Shaoke to finish speaking before asking, "Then Young House Zhen, you didn't bring me here just to compensate me for the pills and spirit stones from the previous time, right?"
