276 A Letter From Changping, Asking for a Favor
These days, Ye Xuan studied the Primal Chaos Heaven Refining Art. Although he had successfully activated it and met the cultivation conditions, it wasn’t easy to completely master this divine-grade cultivation technique.
Even the current Mo Jianming, who had been cultivating a partial divine-grade cultivation technique for a hundred years, could only be said to have half-succeeded, let alone this divine-grade cultivation technique.
The more he studied it, the more he could feel the power system within it. It was different from the current cultivation methods and could be said to be unheard of. Even if it had been lost, it did not affect its power.
Ye Xuan was sure that even in ancient times when there were plenty of rare treasures and spiritual energy, the Primal Chaos Heaven Refining Art was still a rare and extremely precious cultivation technique.
However, he only had a vague impression of the primal chaotic energy in his mind. After all, he had never heard of it before and did not know its origin. For a moment, he felt like he did not know where to start.
He had also tried to ask Mo Jianming about it, but it was a pity that Mo Jianming didn’t know its secret so that Ye Xuan couldn’t be too obvious. After all, his current cultivation could be said to be the complete opposite of the mainstream or even an anomaly.
Mo Jianming and Shen Changling did not know the details of this cultivation technique to avoid unnecessary trouble. They only had a rough idea.
Although Ye Xuan had started cultivating, he was like a blind man groping for an elephant. He had to figure it out on his own. Fortunately, probably because the Primal Chaos Heaven Refining Art was too compatible with him, he didn’t suffer from energy deviation.
Just as Ye Xuan was cultivating, as usual, he suddenly received a message from Qian Yuan.
“I have a request. Come quickly.”
A sentence appeared in the air and quickly disappeared. This was Qian Yuan’s unique way of contacting him. It was very short, but Ye Xuan frowned after reading it. He tried to contact the other party, but there was no response.
Logically speaking, the matter in the capital had already been settled, and he would not go to find trouble with the people in Changping. What could have happened at the hidden depths that required him to be present in person so urgently?
Although Ye Xuan was puzzled, since Qian Yuan had already made such a request, he planned to leave immediately. He was ready to say goodbye to Mo Jianming and Shen Changling.
Shen Changling asked in shock. “What? Elder Ye, you’re going to Changping again? What’s happening there? Could it be that the people from the Dao Seeking Sect and the Misty Illusory Manor are still not giving up and have come up with some scheme?”
Ye Xuan shook his head. “I don’t know, but it doesn’t look like it. There’s no movement in Jingdu, so something must have happened.”
Even if the people of the Dao Seeking Sect wanted to do so, they didn’t have the strength to do so. The trauma that Qian Yuan had cast on them was too big.
Moreover, they had spent much of their savings to save these people this time. If they were to do it again, they would not be able to withstand such a big loss.
Shen Changling was a person who liked to join in the fun. He immediately expressed that he wanted to go with Ye Xuan. “Elder Ye, I’ll go with you. We can look out for each other on the way.”
Shen Changling had been going around with Ye Xuan all this time. Those who didn’t know better would think these two were from the same sect. Mo Jianming had no opinion about this and was happy to see it happen.
“In that case, I’ll have to trouble Fellow Daoist Ye to take care of this troublesome disciple of mine.”
Ye Xuan naturally couldn’t refuse. Moreover, Shen Changling was talented among his peers and could protect himself. He wasn’t a burden to Ye Xuan and could help him sometimes.
After the two of them packed up, they left Jingdu once more and set off on their journey to Changping.
Because they did not want to attract attention and prevent those people from the Dao Seeking Sect and Misty Illusory Manor from causing trouble again, they all disguised themselves before leaving the city gates.
He Jiantian didn’t quite understand Mo Jianming’s decision to let his disciple follow Ye Xuan.
Shen Changling was extremely talented and was his favorite disciple. He might even be the successor of the sect master in the future. Even if he weren’t, he would be an important person in the Sword Sect. He should have been cultivating in the sect but ran around aimlessly.
Even if Mo Jianming wanted to be on good terms with Ye Xuan, He Jiantian thought he had done his best. There was no need to involve Shen Changling.
He Jiantian wanted to advise. “Even if Shen Changling was talented, he couldn’t let it go to waste. He had been away all this time, and his cultivation had stagnated.”
Although these words were tactful, Mo Jianming was not a fool. He quickly understood the implied meaning.
“Sect master, do you think I’ll hold him back by doing this? On the contrary, I’m training Changling.”
Mo Jianming seemed to have noticed He Jiantian’s confusion, so he continued to explain,
“Whether it was the secret realm earlier or the beast tide in Changping, the dangers around Ye Xuan were endless, and each time it was to an unimaginable degree.
As a person who practices the way of the sword, tribulation is an indispensable stone for us to practice our sword. Only in danger can one’s potential be stimulated.”
As Mo Jianming’s disciple, Shen Changling naturally couldn’t be like a flower in a greenhouse. On the contrary, he had to accept the storm earlier to grow up quickly. The sword wielder had to move forward bravely to go far on the sword’s path.
He Jiantian wanted to say something but stopped. “That’s true, but this Ye Xuan is too mysterious. He has lots of secrets. In addition, he’s the enemy of several other major sects. It’s very dangerous to be around him.”
In other words, Ye Xuan had made too many enemies and was easily implicated.
Upon hearing this, Mo Jianming laughed it off. “Our Sword Sect usually has an average relationship with those sects. Yet they usually do a lot of despicable things in secret.”
