"You are Senior Sister Wen." Mo Wuji said happily as he pointed to the chair in front of him, "Senior Sister Wen, please take a seat. I was just trying to find out if Senior Sister Wen came to Yong Ying Immortal Domain."
Wen Lianxi's excitement had yet to subside as she recalled how she treated Mo Wuji previously. Her face flushed red and after hearing Mo Wuji's words, she hurried to bow and said, "Master Mo, please don't call me senior sister. If you like Lianxi, Master Mo can just call me Lianxi. "
"Alright then, Lianxi, please take a seat." Mo Wuji didn't mind because in terms of cultivation level, he seemed to be slightly higher than Wen Lianxi. In terms of status, it wouldn't be wrong for him to call her Lianxi.
Wen Lianxi sat down cautiously and said, "Master Mo, I was blind back then and treated you as a liar."
Mo Wuji hesitated before saying, "Actually, you didn't guess wrongly. I did lie to you back then."
"Ah …" Wen Lianxi looked at Mo Wuji in shock.
Mo Wuji said helplessly, "I was a peak grade Tier 3 Pill Monarch then and I could even be considered as a low grade Pill King. I was lying to you when I said that I was a Tier 9 Heavenly Pill Refiner."
Only Mo Wuji knew that he was lying to Wen Lianxi and what he said back then was more truthful. However, he had to say it because if he didn't, it would be a huge problem if he revealed his abilities as a Pill King during the Yong Ying Immortal Domain Grand Alchemy Competition.
Now that he said that he was a peak grade Tier 3 Pill Monarch back then, it wouldn't be that surprising anymore.
"I know, I know. I have let Big Brother Mo down. Back then, I …" Wen Lianxi said as she tried to stand up.
Mo Wuji raised his hand to stop Wen Lianxi from standing up and smiled, "Let's let bygones be bygones. If you didn't save me, I don't know what would have happened to me. So, I didn't take those things to heart at all. You don't have to worry. "
The moment he saw Wen Lianxi's expression, he knew that Wen Lianxi felt guilty for poisoning him back then. Mo Wuji really didn't mind that Wen Lianxi poisoned him. This was because Wen Lianxi didn't want to harm him but she simply didn't know him well. After all, Wen Lianxi took the initiative to give him the antidote. If he didn't receive the antidote in the end, he wouldn't be sitting in front of Wen Lianxi.
Because he received the antidote, he was very grateful towards Wen Lianxi. At that time, he still didn't know the full use of his elemental storage channel. Without Wen Lianxi, he didn't know when he would have recovered his cultivation. In a place like the Corner of Yong Ying, without strength, one could be killed at any moment.
Moreover, without Wen Lianxi, he wouldn't even be able to get the Grass, Wood, Stone. One must know that this book, [Grass, Wood, Stone], was extremely useful to Mo Wuji. Besides his own Pill Dao, the fact that he could charge into the Pill King Stage so quickly was also because of this book.
There were too many people in this world who only remembered the bad things of others. Even if someone treated them well for a lifetime, they would bear a grudge for a lifetime if they did something that made them unhappy. As for the kindness that others had shown him in the past, he had completely ignored it.
When he was on Earth, Mo Wuji had watched an interview. It was about a little girl who ran away from home because her mother scolded her. When she was cold and hungry in another city, a kind uncle gave her a bowl of noodles to eat. In the end, she was extremely grateful and thought that this uncle treated her much better than her own parents. She even wanted to acknowledge this uncle as her father.
At this moment, she had forgotten how she came to this world and she had also forgotten who was the one who raised her for more than ten years.
This was the deep-rooted bad habit of humans but Mo Wuji wasn't such a person. He definitely wouldn't ignore Wen Lianxi's kindness because of some unimportant things. Because of this kindness, he had completely forgotten about all the unimportant things.
"You knew that I poisoned you back then?" Even though Wen Lianxi had already guessed the answer, she still asked with a trembling voice.
Mo Wuji laughed, "At that time, I was an existence that was infinitely close to becoming a Pill King. I am grateful that you brought me the antidote."
At this moment, if there was a hole in the ground in front of her, Wen Lianxi would be able to crawl into it. She disregarded Mo Wuji's attempts to stop her as she stood up and bowed to Mo Wuji, "Thank you Big Brother Mo for your magnanimity to not bother with an ignorant person like me."
How could she not understand Mo Wuji's words? Even if she didn't give Mo Wuji the antidote, it wouldn't affect Mo Wuji. Mo Wuji said that he was grateful that she brought him the antidote but that wasn't gratitude but recognition of her character. Otherwise, she wouldn't have the right to stand in front of Mo Wuji today.
After saying this, Wen Lianxi continued, "The reason why I am here today is to ask for Big Brother Mo's help."
Mo Wuji nodded, "Tell me about it. As long as I am able to help, I will definitely help you."
Wen Lianxi sat down. Even though she was embarrassed to ask, for her father and for Water Ying Immortal City, she had to say it, "Big Brother Mo, do you know that Yong Ying Immortal Domain is going to hold the Grand Alchemy Competition?"
"I do." Mo Wuji said in his heart that this was the reason why he came here. Even if Wen Lianxi didn't ask, he would have asked her about it later.
Wen Lianxi didn't find it strange because Mo Wuji might have already advanced into the Pill King Stage. His appearance here was naturally because of the Yunxian Immortal Valley.
"Actually, other than the Yunxian Immortal Valley, there is another extremely important competition in this alchemy competition," Wen Lianxi continued.
"What competition?" Mo Wuji asked.
Wen Lianxi calmed herself down and tried to speak slowly, "Because some of the low grade immortal cities in Yong Ying Immortal Domain would become the subsidiary cities of other immortal cities after this competition. They would completely lose their rights to act independently. If the results are good, the low grade immortal city could advance to become an intermediate grade immortal city or even a high grade immortal city. "
Mo Wuji asked doubtfully, "What do you mean? I only know that there are three grades of immortal cities but I have never heard of subsidiary cities. "
Mo Wuji wasn't completely clueless about the grades of immortal cities. In Yong Ying Immortal Domain, Yong Ying Immortal City was a first grade immortal city. Next were high grade immortal cities, intermediate grade immortal cities and low grade immortal cities. The best high grade immortal city was even equivalent to a Heaven Lord's immortal city. For example, the Young Castellan Zuo Yixian that Mo Wuji knew previously came from Sea Canopy Immortal City which was similar in status to Yong Ying Immortal City.
Wen Lianxi knew that Mo Wuji should have just arrived from the Corner of Yong Ying so he shouldn't know much about these things so she wasn't surprised. She explained simply, "A subsidiary immortal city is a subsidiary city of an intermediate grade immortal city or a high grade immortal city. The castellan of a subsidiary immortal city would be appointed by the intermediate grade immortal city or high grade immortal city. The original castellan would usually be chased away or killed and everything produced by the subsidiary immortal city would belong to someone else.
My father is the castellan of Water Ying Immortal City so if my Water Ying Immortal City were to become a subsidiary city of another immortal city, my family would have no way out. Even my mother and I might end up as someone else's subsidiary city and my father would most likely be killed. Thus, I am here to request Big Brother Mo to represent my Water Ying Immortal City in the alchemy competition to save my family. "
Mo Wuji finally understood why Wen Lianxi was so anxious. So it was to save her family. He originally wanted to find an opportunity to participate in the alchemy competition and now was the perfect time to help Wen Lianxi.
Seeing Wen Lianxi staring at him anxiously as she grabbed onto her dress, Mo Wuji chuckled, "I was wondering what it was about. I was originally intending to participate in this alchemy competition so since that's the case, bring me to see your father."
Hearing Mo Wuji's words, Wen Lianxi excitedly took out a jade token and passed it to Mo Wuji, "There's no need to see my father. My Water Ying Immortal City has two slots for the competition and my father gave me one so I can find anyone I want."
It was because Wen Lianxi had no other choice that she decided to participate in the Yong Ying Immortal City's Celebrity Immortal Gathering. This Celebrity Immortal Gathering was for the more famous and influential people of the younger generation so she hoped to find a capable person in such a place. In the end, she heard of Mo Wuji's news so she rushed over.
Mo Wuji accepted the jade token and consoled her, "I will take care of this matter so you don't have to worry. Oh yes, are there any restrictions for the Yong Ying Grand Alchemy Competition? "
"There are only restrictions for age and region. Firstly, one must be from the Yong Ying Immortal Domain and secondly, one must be below 500 years old. This alchemy competition will only take out the top 50. "Wen Lianxi heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that Mo Wuji had accepted the jade token. Mo Wuji was someone that even Pill King Tan praised so he naturally wouldn't be bad.
Mo Wuji hesitated for a moment before saying, "I did some things in the Corner of Yong Ying so I intend to use Mo Xinghe's name to represent the Water Ying Immortal City in the competition."
Wen Lianxi hurried to say, "I know about those things but they aren't important now. Not long after the incident at the Lifeless River, no one cared about the Corner of Yong Ying anymore. Even though someone reported it to the Heavenly Emperor, he didn't react at all. Moreover, you only killed a few insignificant people so no one would care about it now. "
Mo Wuji knew that Wen Lianxi was taking things for granted because he was familiar with Zuo Yixian and Cang Heng. He knew that the incident at the Corner of Yong Ying and the Yong Ying Prison wasn't that simple and even though the Half Immortal Domain had collapsed and the Corner of Yong Ying wasn't as important as it used to be, he would still be in some trouble if he was discovered.
However, Mo Wuji wasn't afraid because he came to participate in the alchemy competition because he had something to rely on. With his status as an honorary elder of the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance, no one would dare to do anything to him even if they knew that he was from the Half Immortal Domain. The reason why he changed his name was because he didn't want to be in too much trouble.
Mo Wuji was in a great mood now that he had found a chance to participate in the alchemy competition. He stood up, "Since that's the case, I will go back and rest first. When the competition starts, I will definitely not waste a single breath of time."
Mo Wuji urgently wanted to find a place to refine the Book of Luo in his hands because there was still half a year before the competition so it would be a waste if he didn't make use of this time.
Wen Lianxi also stood up and her mood was much better than when she first arrived. Before she could bid farewell to Mo Wuji, the communication bracelet on her wrist lit up. Wen Lianxi's spiritual will landed on the bracelet and her face instantly turned pale.
