Most of the transfer arrays to Yong Ying Immortal City were built outside Yong Ying Immortal City. When Mo Wuji and Lin Gu walked out of the transfer array, Yong Ying Immortal City was filled with people.
Back when he first arrived at Sharphorn Immortal Ruins, Mo Wuji felt that Sharphorn Immortal Ruins had the most people out of all the cities he had seen. At this moment, the number of people outside Yong Ying Immortal City was no less than the number of people outside Sharphorn Immortal Ruins. Mo Wuji was very clear that this was because of the upcoming alchemy competition. Once the competition was over, the number of people in Yong Ying Immortal City would decrease drastically. This was different from Sharphorn Immortal Ruins because Sharphorn Immortal Ruins was always filled with people.
If Yong Ying Immortal City was like Sharphorn Immortal Ruins, it would be filled with people. However, Yong Ying Immortal City's style was much grander than Sharphorn Immortal Ruins. Mo Wuji stood at the city gates from afar and he could feel the aura of an imperial city.
Immortal music lingered and purple energy shrouded the area. Under the rainbow light, the jade pillars on both sides looked even more auspicious. Usually, even if there were cultivators guarding the gates, there would only be one or two. However, outside Yong Ying Immortal Domain, there were two groups of immortals. All the immortals wore the same clothes and magic treasures. At least, they looked very imposing.
Mo Wuji and Lin Gu walked into the immortal city. There seemed to be more people in the city than outside. In such a crowded place, there would definitely be no place for them to stay.
Mo Wuji wasn't worried. With his status, he only needed to find the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance and he would have plenty of places to stay. However, Mo Wuji didn't intend to do that. What he needed to do now wasn't to find a place to stay but to find a way to register for the alchemy competition.
"Big Brother Mo, where are we going now? Are we going to the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance? "Lin Gu was here to accompany Mo Wuji.
Mo Wuji waved his hand, "There's no need. I'll go and see which powers are participating … Eh, I see a familiar person. I'll go and greet her."
Lin Gu also saw the two women in front of her. The familiar person that Mo Wuji mentioned should be these two women. She hesitated before saying, "My master doesn't have a good reputation here. Why don't I find a place to stay first and I'll send you a message after I settle down?"
As Mo Wuji thought about it, he realised that Lin Gu was only accompanying him here. His participation in the Grand Alchemy Competition had nothing to do with Lin Gu.
As he thought of this, he took out his honorary elder identity token and handed it to Lin Gu, "If you can't find a place to stay, then go to the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance. Just say that I need your help to find a resthouse."
Lin Gu knew that there was no need to be courteous at a time like this. She hurriedly took the identity token, thanked Mo Wuji and left.
Mo Wuji took a few steps forward and caught up to the two women in front of him as he smiled and clasped his fists towards the tall woman on the left wearing a blue dress, "Greetings senior apprentice sister, I wonder how is senior apprentice sister Wen Lianxi doing?"
Mo Wuji did not know the name of this tall and slender woman. Back when Wen Lianxi saved him, this tall and slender woman was standing beside Wen Lianxi.
There were two reasons why he went forward to greet her. Firstly, he wanted to thank Wen Lianxi and secondly, he wanted to find out which powers were lacking pill refiners as he didn't know anyone here.
"You are?" The tall woman was stopped by Mo Wuji. She stopped and looked at Mo Wuji suspiciously.
"My name is Mo Xinghe." Mo Wuji was slightly embarrassed as he didn't expect the other party to completely forget about him. However, he didn't have a good impression of this woman. Even though the other party had a pair of friendly and intelligent eyes, she used her spiritual will to scan through his storage bag previously which made his impression on him deteriorate.
"Ah, I remember now. So it's you. I didn't think that you would actually come to Yong Ying Immortal Domain. Really …"
This woman didn't say anything but Mo Wuji could guess what she meant. She really didn't think that he would actually come to Yong Ying Immortal City. As for Mo Wuji changing his name to Mo Xinghe, she didn't find it strange at all. Evidently, she didn't care about what Mo Wuji was called previously.
"Yes, yes, it's me. I'm very grateful to senior apprentice sister Wen for saving me once. I wonder if senior apprentice sister Wen is in Yong Ying Immortal City?" Mo Wuji smiled as he said.
Mo Wuji had a good impression of Wen Lianxi. Even though he didn't know the reason why Wen Lianxi would even take back a Grade 1 pill furnace, Mo Wuji didn't really mind.
He wasn't a narrow-minded person who only remembered the bad things about others. There was no need to talk about the fact that the pill furnace originally belonged to Wen Lianxi. Even if Wen Lianxi helped him once, he would still be extremely grateful. Moreover, Wen Lianxi had already poisoned him. She didn't want him to help her so she took the initiative to detoxify the poison for him. Normally, a more ruthless cultivator wouldn't do what Wen Lianxi did. At the very least, they wouldn't take the initiative to detoxify the poison.
The tall woman's expression calmed down as she said faintly, "Senior apprentice sister Wen is fine now. You don't have to worry. I still have things to do so I won't talk much with you. "
With that, she gestured to the woman beside her before turning and leaving.
Mo Wuji's mouth was agape. Wasn't this a little too disrespectful? However, he immediately shook his head because even if he was in his current state, she probably wouldn't even look at him in the eye. There were countless of such people so Mo Wuji couldn't be bothered.
There was still some time before the Grand Alchemy Competition so Mo Wuji decided to go to the resthouse to find out more about Zuo Yixian or Cang Heng. For such a huge event like the Yong Ying Immortal Domain, as long as Cang Heng and Zuo Yixian were back, they would definitely come to Yong Ying Immortal City. Back in the Broken World, he had helped the two of them greatly so it shouldn't be a problem for him to get a slot for the competition.
…
"Wenhui, that person knows Lianxi?" After they were far away from Mo Wuji, the other woman who was walking with the blue dressed woman asked.
The blue dressed woman replied casually, "He's a rogue cultivator from the Corner of Yong Ying. Back then, Lianxi saved his life out of kindness. Back then, he should still be in the Earthly Immortal Stage but I didn't expect him to be so capable. In just a few years, he actually advanced to the Heavenly Immortal Stage and even came to the Yong Ying Immortal Domain from the Corner of Yong Ying. "
"But I can tell that his talent is very ordinary and he looks very ordinary. I can't even feel a single bit of spirituality from him. How could someone with such talent be able to step into the Heavenly Immortal Stage? "The other woman was still slightly doubtful.
The blue dressed woman still didn't mind, "I believe that he must have encountered some sort of opportunity so it's best to ignore such people. Lianxi saved him once back then and that's why he managed to find an opportunity … Jiying, we're here."
As the two were speaking, they had already arrived at the entrance of an extremely high class hall. The two of them held out their name cards and someone had already led them in.
There were already 40 to 50 people gathered in the hall and most of them were women which accounted for 80% of the people. Beside each of them was a fragrant immortal fruit and immortal wine. Everyone was chatting leisurely, or sitting down to discuss some gossips.
"Wenhui, I wanted to send you a message but I didn't expect you to arrive so soon." A slightly haggard voice could be heard and an absolute beauty in a light green dress walked over. Not only was this girl's voice haggard, even her face looked haggard.
"Lianxi, you've gotten skinnier again," The blue dressed woman said helplessly.
Even though this girl in a light green dress wasn't wearing a veil this time round, Mo Wuji would definitely be able to recognise this girl as Wen Lianxi if he was here.
Wen Lianxi laughed but before she could say anything, another woman laughed and said, "Lianxi is troubled by love and I wonder who managed to cultivate three lives of fortune to have the chance to receive Lianxi's yearning. Oh right, we even met an admirer of Lianxi on the way here and he was still asking about you. If it wasn't for the fact that Wenhui ignored him, he might have followed you here. "
"Who?" Wen Lianxi asked casually.
The blue dressed woman called Wenhui said, "It's that rogue cultivator that we met in the Corner of Yong Ying. Didn't he brag that he was some Pill Monarch? His name was Mo or something. "
As she said this, the blue dressed woman couldn't help but cover her mouth as she laughed, "That fella might have heard that the Yong Ying Grand Alchemy Competition was about to start and was preparing to participate …"
"Ah …" Wen Lianxi exclaimed as her eyes lit up as she grabbed the blue dressed woman, "Wenhui, where is he? Quick, tell me now. "
Wen Lianxi spoke so quickly that she couldn't even form a coherent sentence. Her agitated tone and trembling hands showed how disturbed she was at the moment.
"Lianxi, you …" Wenhui looked at Wen Lianxi doubtfully.
"Wenhui, tell me now." Wen Lianxi was so anxious that she was about to cry.
Seeing how anxious Wen Lianxi was, Wenhui didn't dare to ask any further as she said, "Just now, Jiying and I met him on the street and he stopped me to ask about you but I didn't bother about him. In the end, he was tactful and didn't pester me … "
Before Wenhui could finish her sentence, Wen Lianxi had already rushed out.
At this instant, Wen Lianxi wished that she could use her spiritual will to break through all the restrictions in this place but unfortunately, in the Yong Ying Immortal Domain, even if the distance between the streets was far, there would still be spiritual will restrictions.
A slightly familiar back view flashed across her spiritual will as she followed that back view into a resthouse on this street. Wen Lianxi's heart which was hanging in her throat started to palpitate rapidly as she rushed towards the resthouse anxiously without caring if her actions were inappropriate.
In Wen Lianxi's memory, she had never been so agitated before.
The resthouse was bustling with people as Wen Lianxi's gaze swept across the hall on the first floor. When she saw the figure who had just sat down in the corner, she couldn't help but feel her eyes turning red.
In just a few steps, she had rushed in and stood in front of Mo Wuji.
"You …" Mo Wuji looked at Wen Lianxi and even though it was an unfamiliar face, he felt a sense of familiarity towards her.
After a moment of hesitation, Mo Wuji recognised that the woman in front of him was Wen Lianxi whom he was asking about previously. He didn't expect that Wen Lianxi would be standing in front of him while he was asking about her.
