"Wuji, Shaoru …" Just as Mo Wuji walked out of the Heaven Seeking Palace gates, he heard Zhen Shaoke's joyful voice calling out to him.
Zhen Shaoke brought Fei Bingzhu, the Tao Ao couple and Yan 'Er to the entrance of the Heaven Seeking Palace, squeezed together with many other cultivators.
"Looks like your friends are here. We'll meet again in the future." Hou Yucheng politely bid farewell to Mo Wuji and co.
Even though Mo Wuji really wanted to invite Hou Yucheng for a chat, he didn't have the mood to do so when he thought about Yan 'Er's situation. Yan 'Er had already unknowingly walked to his side, and naturally held onto his hand.
"Senior apprentice brother Mo, I knew that nothing would happen to you." Fei Bingzhu clenched his fists and came forward to greet Mo Wuji.
Tao Ao and Xiong Xiuzhu also came forward to greet him. They were equally worried about Mo Wuji entering the Five Elements Desolate Domain. If anything happened to Mo Wuji, they would also have no future.
"Shaoke, let me introduce you. This is Yu Zhi …" Even though Mo Wuji didn't get the Immeasurable Soul-forging Crystal and was in a bad mood, he still took the initiative to introduce Yu Zhi.
After greeting Yu Zhi, Zhen Shaoke could sense that Mo Wuji was not in a good mood. He guessed that Mo Wuji had not found the Immeasurable Soul-forging Crystal, so he took the initiative to say, "Let's go, we'll talk when we get back."
…
After not seeing Mo Wuji for three months, Yan 'Er seemed to be following Mo Wuji closely. Fortunately, Zhen Shaoke saw the opportunity and took the initiative to entertain Yu Zhi, allowing Mo Wuji to accompany Yan 'Er.
Mo Wuji chatted with Yan 'Er for half a day, then accompanied her for a meal before Yan' Er left with Xiong Xiuzhu.
During this period of time, Yu Zhi had been waiting for Mo Wuji in the room that Zhen Shaoke had arranged for him. Only now did he realise that even though Mo Wuji was also a rogue cultivator, Mo Wuji's network was much wider than his. Whether it was Hou Yucheng or Zhen Shaoke, they were not people that he, Yu Zhi, could deal with.
At this moment, Yu Zhi could only hope that Mo Wuji would keep his promise and help him concoct the Body Constructing Pill.
"Brother Yu, you know that I have a request for Granny Linglong. Even though I haven't obtained the Immeasurable Soul-forging Crystal yet, I still need to see Granny Linglong. If this matter isn't settled, I really can't help you refine pills with peace of mind. But don't worry, after I meet Granny Linglong, I will keep my promise and help you concoct the Body Constructing Pill regardless of success or failure, "Mo Wuji told Yu Zhi honestly after settling Yan 'Er down.
Before settling Yan 'Er's matter properly, he would not be able to refine pills in peace. In this trip to the Five Elements Desolate Domain, he did not obtain the Immeasurable Soul-forging Crystal nor the Flower of the True Gods. This had already reduced his hopes of asking Granny Linglong for help to its lowest point.
"Pill Master Mo, please go ahead. I have already waited for so many years, why would I care about a few more days?" Yu Zhi said respectfully.
After settling the fish plants, Mo Wuji returned to his room. He took out an ice flower and placed it into the storage bag that Yu Zhi gave him. He then hid his own storage bag in his room before he went to look for Fei Bingzhu. Tell Fei Bingzhu that before he returns, no one is allowed to enter his room.
With that, Mo Wuji brought Yan 'Er towards the Heaven Seeking Palace nervously.
…
In the biggest room of the Heaven Seeking Palace's temporary pill pagoda, a brown robed woman sat in front of a huge pill furnace with her eyebrows furrowed in deep thought. There was still a fire burning under the pill furnace. At the entrance of her room, there were two almost identical female medicine attendants.
"Has the Five Elements Desolate Domain been closed for a day?" The brown robed woman suddenly raised her head and asked.
The two girls at the entrance bowed at the same time and said, "Yes, granny."
"Then has anyone come here to find me?" The brown robed woman asked again.
"Not yet," The two girls answered in unison.
The brown robed woman seemed slightly irritated. She threw a stalk of herb into the pill furnace and went into deep thought again. That stalk of herb soon gave off a burnt smell, but the brown robed woman did not seem to notice it at all.
After a while, the brown robed woman suddenly raised her head and said, "If anyone comes to find me, let him in immediately."
"Yes, granny." The two girls replied in unison.
The brown robed woman threw another stalk of herb into the pill furnace and went into deep thought again.
…
Mo Wuji did not know what Granny Linglong was thinking. He brought Yan 'Er but did not dare to look for Granny Linglong directly. Instead, he went to look for Mu Ying.
To Mo Wuji's disappointment, Mu Ying was not in the Heaven Seeking Palace.
Just as Mo Wuji was about to bite the bullet and look for Granny Linglong, he finally met a familiar person, Zuo Shaoyi. Beside Zuo Shaoyi, there was a woman who looked similar to her, and was even prettier than Zuo Shaoyi. Mo Wuji guessed that this should be Zuo Shaoyi's sister.
Zuo Shaoyi and Mu Ying even went to visit him at his place before. It was just that he was in a sorry state that scared this woman away.
Because Mo Wuji's current state was completely different from how he looked like when he crawled out from hell, Zuo Shaoyi did not recognise Mo Wuji immediately.
"Mo Wuji greets senior apprentice sister Zuo …" Mo Wuji hurried forward and bowed respectfully.
"You are?" Zuo Shaoyi stared at Mo Wuji for a while before realising, "I remember you. You're the Tier 3 Mortal Pill Refiner Mo Wuji who stays at the Nine Moons Pill House."
Mo Wuji smiled and said, "That's me."
Zuo Shaoyi frowned, "Why are you here?"
Mo Wuji hurriedly said, "Previously, I almost went berserk during my cultivation, and neglected senior apprentice sister Mu and senior apprentice sister Zuo. This time, I'm specially here to apologise."
Zuo Shaoyi waved her hand, "There's no need for apologies. Since senior apprentice sister Mu is not here, I'll be leaving too."
With that, Zuo Shaoyi pulled the woman beside her and was about to leave.
Mo Wuji hurriedly called out to Zuo Shaoyi, "Senior apprentice sister Zuo, I'd like to ask you for a favour …"
Zuo Shaoyi's face turned cold, "Mo Wuji, I'm not related to you in any way. There's nothing for me to help you with. Moreover, I have something on and have to leave now."
With that, Zuo Shaoyi could no longer be bothered with Mo Wuji, and pulled the woman beside her as they left.
Not to mention asking Zuo Shaoyi to bring him to see Granny Linglong, Mo Wuji couldn't even ask her for directions.
...
"Shaoyi, is he the young and promising pill refiner that senior apprentice sister Mu mentioned? The person that you want to introduce to me? "Zuo Shaoying asked after the two of them had walked quite a distance away.
Zuo Shaoyi said speechlessly, "Indeed, it's him. He only has low grade spiritual roots, and I didn't expect him to be outstanding. But he actually went berserk while cultivating at his own residence. You didn't see what happened, he was no different from a dead man. I don't even know how he managed to advance to become a Tier 3 Mortal Pill Refiner. Sister, it's all my fault, I almost harmed you. You see, I've never even spoken to him before, but today, he's asking for my help. This kind of person … "
Zuo Shaoying went silent for a while, then said, "Shaoyi, actually, I think he's not bad. My own aptitude is also very poor … "
Her tone was a little desolate. Compared to Zuo Shaoyi, she felt that she was closer to a person with poor aptitude like Mo Wuji. She could understand Mo Wuji's subservient tone and helplessness when he saw her sister. Even in front of her strong and talented sister, she did not have much say in it.
In reality, she really could not understand Mo Wuji's subservient tone and helplessness. If it was for himself, not to mention an inner disciple like Zuo Shaoyi, even if it was the dean of the Heaven Seeking Palace, Mo Wuji would not lower himself to greet him.
"Sister, this time, I guarantee that I can let you join the outer sect of the Heaven Seeking Palace, because I've obtained some good stuff. As long as you join the Heaven Seeking Palace, what kind of talent can't you meet? Let's go, "Zuo Shaoyi said.
…
"Senior apprentice brother, may I ask where is Granny Linglong's residence?" After Zuo Shaoyi left, Mo Wuji waited for a while before finding an opportunity to ask a male cultivator.
This male cultivator did not seem to mind, and casually pointed a direction to Mo Wuji before hurriedly walking out.
Mo Wuji thanked him, and hurried over with Yan 'Er. He was worried that Granny Linglong would leave this place, because she was here to look for spiritual herbs. It had been a day since the Five Elements Desolate Domain closed, so if someone had obtained the Immeasurable Soul-forging Crystal, they would have come looking for her. Once Granny Linglong left this place, it would be almost impossible for him to see her again.
When the words "Heaven Seeking Pill Pagoda" appeared in front of Mo Wuji's eyes, Mo Wuji became extremely nervous. Now that he found it, this must be where Granny Linglong lived.
Under the signboard of the Heaven Seeking Pill Pagoda, stood a red robed girl. Mo Wuji pulled Yan 'Er and hurried over.
"May I ask if Granny Linglong …"
Before Mo Wuji could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by the red robed girl, "Are you here to look for Granny Linglong?"
Mo Wuji hurriedly said, "Yes, I'm here to look for Granny Linglong, because I …"
"That's enough, just follow me," The red robed girl did not even listen to Mo Wuji's explanation, and once again interrupted Mo Wuji's words.
This name is easy? Mo Wuji was a little dazed. From his perspective, it should be very difficult to meet Granny Linglong. Because whether it was Yan Qianyin, Zhen Shaoke, or even Hou Yucheng, none of them had any hope of him finding Granny Linglong for help.
But now, he did not say anything, nor did he take out anything, and someone was already leading the way? This made Mo Wuji feel a little surreal. Perhaps Granny Linglong's temperament had changed, and Yan Qianyin and co. did not know about it.
Mo Wuji really wronged Yan Qianyin and co. because the reason why he could meet Granny Linglong so easily today was because the people who entered the Five Elements Desolate Domain had just come out today.
"Sister Qi, Sister Xiang, these two people are looking for Granny …" The red robed girl brought Mo Wuji and Yan 'Er to the door of a room, and said respectfully to the two girls at the door.
They were a pair of twins, Mo Wuji thought to himself as he looked at the two girls who looked exactly the same.
"Is someone here to look for me? Let them in, "Before the two girls could speak, a slightly hoarse female voice came from the room.
