"This stone looks rather pretty." Mo Wuji twirled the Three Flower Fire Heartstone in his hand and said. After saying that, he placed the stone back into the jade box. However, he didn't return the jade box to the woman from Void Piercer Treasure Pavilion.
When Cha Kai saw this situation, he knew that if he still wanted this fire heartstone, it would be equivalent to forming an enmity with Mo Wuji. Anyway, if Mo Wuji didn't come over, Ao Tiancheng wouldn't have simply given the fire heartstone to him. Now that Mo Wuji said this, he simply said, "Since Elder Mo likes this stone, then I don't want it. I'll offer a borrowed flower to Buddha and give it to Elder Mo."
After saying that, he swept a meaningful glance at Ao Tiancheng and said in a strange tone, "I forgot that Immortal Friend Ao needs to compensate for the loss. I believe that Immortal Friend Ao will take the initiative to pay for this fire heartstone."
Ao Tiancheng snorted coldly and turned to leave.
He could forget about the Fire Heartstone and it would be a dream for him to spend immortal crystals to buy this Fire Heartstone as an apology to Mo Wuji.
Mo Wuji said faintly, "Ao Tiancheng, if you dare to walk out of this house without compensating, I will do two things. Firstly, I will request for the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance to stop all dealings with the Surging Dragon Golden River. The second thing is that after I buy this stone, I will call the place where you live. Oh yes, don't worry. I won't go to the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance to find any helpers. I will fight my way there alone. "
After saying that, Mo Wuji stared coldly at Ao Tiancheng. He didn't say a single lie. He was a honorary elder, so it definitely wouldn't be a problem for him to request the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance. If such a small matter was a problem, he would rather not be a Pill Dao Immortal Alliance honorary elder.
As for fighting his way to Ao Tiancheng's place, he wasn't speaking blindly.
He wasn't afraid of Ao Tiancheng. With his status, even if he fought his way to Ao Tiancheng's place, there wouldn't be any repercussions. More importantly, battling with Ao Tiancheng would only bring him benefits and no disadvantages.
However, it was different for Ao Tiancheng. Someone actually came knocking on his door and he couldn't do anything to the person who came knocking on his door. His face would be completely lost.
Ao Tiancheng stopped and a sharp light shot out from his eyes. An intense killing intent rose in his heart. If this wasn't Sharphorn Immortal Ruins, he would have attacked immediately.
He was still rational. After a few breaths of time, he took a deep breath, took out a ring and threw it to Du Ju, "This is the fee for buying the Fire Heartstone. Goodbye."
With that, he turned around and left. Honestly speaking, he, Ao Tiancheng, had never been as sullen as he was today ever since he started cultivating. If it was possible, he really wanted to have a huge battle with Mo Wuji, and use his own abilities to speak.
However, he wasn't going to let today's humiliation go so easily. He didn't believe that Mo Wuji would stay in Sharphorn Immortal Ruins forever. As long as Mo Wuji dared to leave Sharphorn Immortal Ruins, then Mo Wuji shouldn't blame him for killing him.
But today, he had no choice but to lower his head. The Surging Dragon Golden River's reliance on the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance wasn't low. Even the pills he used to advance to the Xuan Immortal Stage came from the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance. Moreover, the Surging Dragon Golden River still needed more strategic pills to advance to the Grand Zhi Immortal Stage or even Immortal King Stage.
The moment they offended the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance, the Surging Dragon Golden River would gradually be trampled by others.
Another reason was that he was truly afraid that Mo Wuji would come to his residence. He, Ao Tiancheng, was a prideful person. If a Golden Immortal were to come knocking on his door, would he still have any face? There was no need to talk about how mysterious Mo Wuji's strength was. Even if the other party was weak, would he dare to kill the other party?
Mo Wuji obtained the items. He clasped his fists towards Du Ju and Cha Kai and said, "Many thanks, Dao Friend Du and Dao Friend Cha. This Mo shall take his leave. If there's a chance in the future, I'll come and disturb you again."
He knew that it was impossible for Ao Tiancheng to apologise. The next time the two of them met privately, it would probably be a life or death situation.
After suppressing Ao Tiancheng, Mo Wuji naturally wouldn't go and antagonize Cha Kai. Moreover, Cha Kai also had the intention to befriend him. Having one more friend was always better than having one more opponent.
"Welcome, welcome. Let me send Elder Mo out." Du Ju hurriedly said with a smile.
"I'll be leaving too. I'll also follow Elder Mo out." Cha Kai also stood up and said with a smile. No matter what, being able to befriend an elder of the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance wasn't a bad thing.
…
In a resthouse outside the Void Piercer Treasure Pavilion, Shen Muqing ordered a cup of immortal tea. She had been sitting here the entire time. She really wanted to know what the final outcome was.
There was no movement from the Void Piercer Treasure Pavilion for a long time. She was even wondering if Mo Wuji and Dou Hualong had already been killed by the Void Piercer Treasure Pavilion. Sharphorn Immortal Ruins indeed didn't allow killing. However, Mo Wuji had destroyed the stone lion. Under such circumstances, Mo Wuji could still be killed.
After some time, she saw Ao Tiancheng walk out of the Void Piercer Treasure Pavilion with a face full of killing intent and grievance. She couldn't help but guess. Could Cha Kai have won?
The answer soon appeared in her vision. She even thought that she had seen wrongly. She even wanted to rub her eyes.
Mo Wuji and Dou Hualong walked out unscathed. Not only that, the shopkeeper of the Void Piercer Treasure Pavilion's Sharphorn Immortal Ruins branch, Du Ju, followed behind them with a face full of smiles. Clearly, he was here to send Mo Wuji out. Even Cha Kai was walking by Mo Wuji's side. It seemed like he was also sending Mo Wuji off.
After walking for a distance, Cha Kai actually clasped his fists towards Mo Wuji. On the other hand, Du Ju also seemed to be courteous with Mo Wuji. Then, he turned and entered the Void Piercer Treasure Pavilion.
Mo Wuji left the Void Piercer Treasure Pavilion without losing a single hair.
Shen Muqing wasn't a fool. She immediately understood what was going on. Mo Wuji's origins were indeed shocking. Otherwise, Du Ju and Cha Kai wouldn't have such expressions on their faces. It was even more impossible for Mo Wuji to be sent out after destroying the Void Piercer Treasure Pavilion's stone lion.
There was also that Ao Tiancheng. That fella was clearly at a disadvantage. Why would Ao Tiancheng be at a disadvantage? Shen Muqing didn't even need to use her toes to figure it out. It was because Dou Hualong's injuries were caused by him.
Shen Muqing sighed. Indeed, she had missed the chance to befriend Mo Wuji. This made her understand a principle. If you wanted to befriend someone, you shouldn't be afraid of the consequences. Using the mentality that you can only share wealth with others but not hardship with them, you wouldn't be able to make true friends. She guessed that Mo Wuji wasn't ordinary. However, when she really wanted to contribute, she hesitated.
Fortunately, she finally got to know Mo Wuji. Her previous efforts weren't in vain. Even if she couldn't become Mo Wuji's intimate friend, it wouldn't be a bad thing to get to know another person. Even if he owed her a favour, it wouldn't be a bad thing.
…
Mo Wuji didn't return to Riverface Immortal Resthouse. Instead, he went to the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance. Dou Hualong told him that Gong Yi had already helped him set up his shop. Mo Wuji wanted to see how the shop was doing.
"Elder Mo." Just as Mo Wuji arrived at the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance Sharphorn Branch, Gong Yi came out to welcome him.
Mo Wuji said courteously, "Deacon Gong, I've been behind closed doors. Thank you for your help."
Gong Yi's eyes squinted. He hurriedly said, "It wasn't hard, it wasn't hard. The shop is already found. It was mainly because of Deacon Guo's help. I was only a runner. "
As he spoke, Gong Yi took out a scroll and passed it to Mo Wuji, "This is the contract for the shop. In the future, this shop will belong to Elder Mo."
Mo Wuji originally wanted to rent a shop. He didn't expect Guo Qi to help him buy one. He hurriedly said, "I'll have to thank Sister Qi for this. I'll have to thank her personally. At the same time, I'll pay her the fees."
The price of a shop in Sharphorn Immortal Ruins was definitely not a small sum. Even if Mo Wuji couldn't afford it, he had to know the price.
Gong Yi hurriedly said, "Deacon Guo, President Shang and Pill King Shu Nan left Sharphorn Immortal Ruins for urgent matters. President Shang even said that he would invite Elder Mo to a banquet when he returns."
Left Sharphorn Immortal Ruins for urgent matters? To be able to make so many important figures of the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance Sharphorn Branch leave at the same time, it seemed like this wasn't a small matter.
"Elder Mo, let me bring you to the shop." Gong Yi was very quick-witted. Mo Wuji was a very capable Pill King. He even befriended Deacon Guo and the Branch's Second Union Head. Now that he had the chance to help, he had to befriend Mo Wuji.
"Alright, then I'll have to trouble Deacon Gong." Mo Wuji nodded and thanked him.
…
The shop that Guo Qi helped Mo Wuji find was about half an hour's journey from the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance Branch. Even though it wasn't the most flourishing place, it was still a bustling street in Sharphorn Immortal Ruins.
What made Mo Wuji most satisfied was that the area of this shop wasn't small. It was at least a few hundred square meters, and it was even a three-storey building.
In a place like Sharphorn Immortal Ruins, it was already very impressive to have a three-storey building that was a few hundred square meters. Even some of the bigger sects wouldn't have such a piece of land.
The moment they entered the shop, Mo Wuji saw rows of transparent shelves. Even though there wasn't anything on these shelves, it showed that the person who placed them here was very attentive.
"Deacon Gong, many thanks." Mo Wuji said gratefully.
Gong Yi rubbed his hands awkwardly. It seemed like he had something to say, but was too embarrassed to say it.
Mo Wuji asked doubtfully, "Could it be that Deacon Gong has something that's inconvenient to say?"
Gong Yi suddenly knelt on the ground, "Elder Mo, my Pill Dao has stagnated. I would like to acknowledge Elder as my master."
Mo Wuji was startled. This fella could really imagine. This Gong Yi was a Grand Yi Immortal. How could he take a Golden Immortal as his master?
"Get up first. I'm still in the midst of figuring things out, so it's impossible for me to accept disciples," Mo Wuji said faintly.
It wasn't that he didn't want to accept disciples, but Gong Yi didn't meet the requirements to be his disciple.
Seeing Gong Yi stand up dejectedly, Mo Wuji consoled him, "You're now the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance Branch's assessment deacon, so it's not convenient for you to come here …"
"Elder Mo, I can work here. Our Pill Dao Immortal Alliance does not place much emphasis on this aspect. I'm a pill refiner of the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance, so I'm not restricted in anything I want to do, "Gong Yi hurried to say.
Mo Wuji muttered to himself. He also needed help to open his pill house. This Gong Yi was a little snobbish, but he was experienced and perceptive. Thinking of this, he nodded and said, "In that case, you can come here to work. I can give you some pointers on pill refinement. As for the matter of acknowledging me as your master, there's no need to mention it again. "
"Many thanks, Elder Mo." Gong Yi said excitedly. What he wanted was to learn the Pill Dao from Mo Wuji.
(That's all for today's update. Good night friends! Let's ask for more monthly votes. Also, Qidian's annual meeting is going to be held soon. After that, it will be the Spring Festival, so the number of updates will decrease. The number of updates from the alliance head will not be less, so the timing will be slightly delayed.)
