“Come, come come, try my Dragon Teng Palace’s Blue Wei Fruit. It’s freshly picked,” Teng Xiong picked one up and said. He was confused about Ye Mo’s spirit sense mark disappearing but he also breathed easy now that it reappeared.
He wasn’t going to let go of a cultivator like Ye Mo.
Blue Wei Fruit was a level six spirit fruit, it tasted very good. For a truth realisation state cultivator, it was just purely to satisfy the mouth eating this, but the truth realisation state cultivators here were thinking about that young level seven pill king. If Dragon Teng Palace got him, then its power would increase many times again. That way, if they wanted pills, they would need to come here through Teng Xiong. Teng Xiong would take a lot of benefits.
They weren’t thinking about eating the fruit but how to stop Ye Mo from becoming a part of the Dragon Teng Palace so he could concoct pills for everyone.
How could Teng Xiong not know what they were thinking? He turned around to the woman who brought in the fruit. “I want to discuss with these friends about cultivation, I need some time. If Teng comes back, tell him to wait for me at his mother’s place. I will go visit his mother after I’m done here.”
Hearing this, these few cultivators thought contemptuously of Teng Xiong. Telling Teng Yi to go to his mother meant that Ye Mo would go too. It would be inconvenient for them to visit Teng Yi’s mother. They knew what Teng Xiong thought but they had no way around it, they could only wait for a while and find an opportunity to see Ye Mo.
But Teng Xiong didn’t know that Teng Yi wasn’t going to come back at all because he didn’t chat with his mother. If he did, he would know that Teng Yi wouldn’t be coming back.
“Yes father, I saw 9th brother Teng not long ago, he’s with the two human cultivators and, and…” the woman heard this and said in a sulk.
This young woman was the Hu Yi Ye Mo had seen before. She didn’t know that Teng Yi had come back already as their flying magic artifacts weren’t as fast as Ye Mo’s. She came to serve the spirit fruit herself just so she could report about Teng Yi.
He hated it when people mentioned she was second brother’s wife when she was with 6th brother. Teng Yi knew this but still said it to her face.
Teng Xiong frowned, clearly thinking this woman was talking too much. He didn’t ask but the other truth realisation state level seven cultivator asked, “Oh, did you see Teng? Where are they now?”
That cultivator clearly thought Hu Yi saw Ye Mo and Teng Yi after they left Dragon Teng Palace so he asked. If he knew where Ye Mo was he could use that excuse to go see.
Seeing someone asked this, Teng Xiong looked at her and said, “And what? Say it.”
The woman said with more sulkiness, “Teng Yi made friends with two human cultivators, 6th brother reproached him but he didn’t care at all. That wasn’t it, but those two human cultivators stared at me lustfully as though they wanted to eat me…”
Hearing this, Teng Xiong got up in joy, “You said that human cultivator looked at you with lust?”
Hu Yi thought her lies worked and said, “Yes, although brother Jie has been out for a few decades, I’m still…”
Teng Xiong waved his hand. “Okay, very well, in my heart you are like my own daughter.”
Before she could be happy about it, Teng Xiong said again, “That cultivator who stared at you is called Ye Mo, in a few days when he comes back, you can prepare yourself. I’ll marry you to him, great, great…. Haha….”
“Huh…” Hu Yi was dazed. She came to report Teng Yi but the king just married her to that human cultivator instead.
What was this? Teng Xiong was the king but he was her grandpa and she was married to his son. Without knowing if his son was dead or alive, he just casually married his daughter in law to someone else. This was too absurd!
Hu Yi panicked but before she could continue, Teng Xiong waved his hand. “Go dress yourself up and wait for Ye Mo to come back. Let the maids serve the spirit fruit, you don’t need to come yourself.”
“Yes.” Hu Yi knew that anything else she said now would only anger the king. She knew the consequences of angering him.
After Hu Yi left, Teng Xiong looked at that truth realisation state cultivator and laughed, “I didn’t even know Ye Mo was interested in my daughter. It seems brother Lan doesn’t need to introduce your granddaughter, haha….”
The others could only curse Teng Xiong for being shameless.
…
Meanwhile, Ye Mo left the streets and came to a huge square.
The grey mist seemed to be very scared of Shadowless and left before Ye Mo used Purple Eye Soul Sever.
“Where is my soul, where is my soul?”
At this moment, that voice sounded again. Ye Mo heard it very clearly, he even felt his soul was going to leave his body after hearing it.
When he scanned with spirit sense there seemed to be a black figure, but when he looked again, there was nothing. His spirit sense couldn’t scan out very far despite having Purple Eye Soul Sever, and with this voice appearing again and again, even he was creeped out.
After hearing this, Ye Mo thought that he was a cultivator, a cauldron filling state cultivator. He wasn’t afraid of ghosts. Plus, even if it was a ghost cultivator he wouldn’t care, but that voice felt very strange. If it wasn’t a cultivator, there was no way it just appeared here. Even a very strong will couldn’t. That voice was able to influence his mind. What cultivator’s will could influence the mind of a cauldron filling state cultivator, especially his?
Ye Mo knew that his mind was very resolute from cultivating under the Bitter Bamboo. Even the heart demon wasn’t able to do anything during the divine damnation, much less some will.
That voice disappeared at the door of a ruined palace. Ye Mo could see from the framework how grandiloquent it must’ve been.
The palace hadn’t collapsed but the pillars outside were a little damaged. The palace was completely dark but Ye Mo walked in.
After coming inside, Ye Mo felt his body go cold, not because the temperature was cold but because his heart felt cold. It was as though he walked into a place he shouldn’t have.
Two eyes that emitted weak light flashed across Ye Mo and Ye Mo stopped his steps. He scanned with spirit sense and saw a faint black figure. This figure was even harder to see in the dark.
This wasn’t a ghost cultivator nor a spirit cultivator. Ye Mo was shocked as he had never seen something like this – it wasn’t human nor spirit beast nor spirit item. Did this grey mist have its own will after existing for so long?
“Shadowless, go up and eat it!” Ye Mo ordered, but Shadowless didn’t even move. Ye Mo immediately knew from Shadowless that the thing was long gone.
Ye Mo didn’t expect this black figure to be this fast. Even Shadowless wasn’t able to capture it.
Passing through this dark hall, he went into the back yard, this seemed to be the city lord estate. Ye Mo scanned with spirit sense and the first thing he noticed was the most spacious room. The most eye catching thing was the big bed.
The reason Ye Mo came here was not because of the bed but because of the formation markings near the bed.
Ye Mo picked up a small broken formation flag and studied it for a while and realized.
This room was Feng Xi’s room, this big bed was the place Feng Xi tried to save Li Hun.
He understood why Li Hun’s father was so angry as this was no misunderstanding. The broken formation here wasn’t a Soul Nourishing Formation but a Soul Devouring Formation or Spirit Transfer Formation.
