Old Five is a Goose.
Chapter 678 Lian Yingxian's Secret
The Immortal King immediately felt something was wrong as soon as he said that. A Grand Yi Immortal just happened to be passing by?
Before he could give another warning, the Grand Zhi Immortal retracted his magical weapon and attacked Mo Wuji.
Mo Wuji didn't even pay attention to the Grand Zhi Immortal's attack. He raised his hand and threw a punch.
This punch wasn't aimed at the Grand Zhi Immortal who attacked him but at the Grand Luo Immortal Zenith battling the young woman.
Mo Wuji, experienced in battle, naturally knew that the key to breaking the stalemate wasn't the Grand Zhi Immortal suppressing the young woman but the Grand Luo Immortal Zenith.
"Boom!" A violent wave of immortal essence surged out. The two Grand Luo Immortals fighting each other both felt the terror of Mo Wuji's punch.
The Grand Luo Immortal, who was the main target, was horrified to discover that he felt the domain of the fist.
Mo Wuji, being in the initial stage of Grand Luo Immortal, this punch, even an Immortal King would treat with caution. Dealing with an Immortal Emperor was far beyond his reach, but dealing with a Grand Luo Immortal was nothing to Mo Wuji.
"Bang!" This punch directly shattered the Grand Luo Immortal's domain. The Grand Luo Immortal wanted to retreat but felt a terrifying spatial crush.
"Puff!" A stream of blood shot out, and the immortal essence of the Rending Domain Fist exploded, instantly severely injuring the Grand Luo Immortal. Seeing this opportunity, the young woman unleashed her magical weapon with full force, enveloping the Grand Luo Immortal within it.
Without Mo Wuji's punch, the young woman would at most have fought the Grand Luo Immortal to a draw. But now, Mo Wuji's punch had shattered the Grand Luo Immortal's domain and severely injured him. Now that the young woman was attacking with all her might, even if the Grand Luo Immortal was powerful, he couldn't escape death.
At that moment, the Grand Zhi Immortal's attack arrived. Mo Wuji didn't even bother to kill him. With a flicker, he vanished without a trace.
He had killed the Grand Luo Immortal Zenith, which meant he had broken the stalemate. He didn't need to stay there.
Sure enough, as soon as Mo Wuji left, the young woman killed the Grand Luo Immortal, who had been hit by Mo Wuji's punch. She turned her magical weapon, and the domain completely enveloped the Grand Zhi Immortal who had attacked Mo Wuji.
A Grand Zhi Immortal, under a Grand Luo Immortal Zenith, had no ability to resist. In just a breath, he was killed by the young woman.
"Immortal friend, please wait! I haven't thanked you for saving my life..." The beautiful young woman called after Mo Wuji, but he had already gone far away.
"Sister Xiaoyu, who is that person? Why did he suddenly help us and then leave without leaving his name?" The young woman asked, puzzled.
The young woman named Xiaoyu quickly said, "Wait, I'll go help Uncle Yu first..."
Just as Xiaoyu finished speaking, the dark-skinned old man's voice came, "No need, that person has already escaped."
The Immortal King, who was fighting Uncle Yu, saw the situation was bad and fled without hesitation.
"Miss, we need to go back quickly. It seems someone is targeting us," the old man walked over.
The young woman frowned and said, "That person wants some Medusa Crystal. We've never even seen that thing. Where are we supposed to find it?"
Xiaoyu also shook her head, saying in a solemn tone, "It seems we've been drawn into a conspiracy. It's best to return to the Manor as soon as possible. Uncle Yu, did you see the person who helped me just now? Was he an Immortal King?"
She thought Mo Wuji was an Immortal King. After all, Mo Wuji had severely injured a Grand Luo Immortal Zenith with a single punch, and the other party didn't even have the ability to resist. What else could he be but an Immortal King?
Uncle Yu shook his head. "I only know someone came to help. As for his cultivation, I didn't have a chance to check at the time. What is certain is that his cultivation is definitely not as simple as the Grand Yi Immortal he appeared to be."
...
When Mo Wuji returned to Immortal Qi Village, Yu Sheng, Yu Jingfeng, and Lian Yingxian had just returned.
The three were very happy to see Mo Wuji. Yu Jingfeng was the most grateful to Mo Wuji. Although his grandfather and sister-in-law were not saved by his Shifu, his Shifu had followed him to rescue them and had almost been caught by the Yi Hai Merchant Association. How could he forget such kindness?
"Sister Yingxian, can I have a few words with you alone?" Mo Wuji asked Lian Yingxian with a smile.
Hearing Mo Wuji's words, Yu Sheng quickly left on the excuse of having something to do. Yu Jingfeng also hurried off to sort out his fishing nets. Mo Wuji knew what they were thinking, but he didn't care.
Lian Yingxian lowered her head and softly hummed in agreement.
"Let's talk in my room," Mo Wuji took the lead and walked into the house.
Seeing Mo Wuji enter the house, a trace of struggle flashed in Lian Yingxian's eyes. She still followed Mo Wuji into the house. To her, Mo Wuji was an Immortal. Instead of angering an Immortal and causing disaster for her whole family, she might as well resign herself to fate.
After Lian Yingxian entered the house, Mo Wuji casually set up several shielding restrictions before staring at Lian Yingxian. His spiritual will also began to observe the flow of spiritual veins in Lian Yingxian's body. He really wanted to know if Lian Yingxian was a host sought by a strong person or for some other reason.
Lian Yingxian's face turned red from Mo Wuji's gaze. After a while, seeing that Mo Wuji didn't speak, she had to take the initiative and say, "Big Huang, as long as you don't do anything to Grandpa and Jingfeng, I'm willing."
Mo Wuji waved his hand. "Sister Yingxian, it's not what you think. Give me your hand."
This time, Mo Wuji directly grabbed Lian Yingxian's wrist, and his spiritual will once again penetrated it. After a moment, Mo Wuji let his Spirit Storage Channel's spiritual will penetrate it as well.
After a long while, Mo Wuji found the origin of Lian Yingxian's cultivation. In her Purple Mansion, there was a crystal dot, smaller than one-tenth the size of a sesame seed. The crystal dot contained a vast and powerful aura of cultivation. The reason his Spiritual Eye could see it at a glance was because the Spiritual Eye could see through illusions and see the powerful aura hidden on Lian Yingxian's body.
Spiritual will couldn't see it because the terrifying aura hidden in Lian Yingxian's Purple Mansion was shielded by a faint layer.
Mo Wuji withdrew his hand. He wasn't sure what that terrifying aura in the crystal dot was. Whether it was a primordial spirit or originally belonged to Lian Yingxian. He didn't dare to act rashly. With his cultivation, if he acted rashly, it was likely to stimulate that terrifying aura and turn Lian Yingxian into dust.
Seeing Mo Wuji withdraw his hand and frown in silence, Lian Yingxian was even more uneasy. She didn't know what the Immortal Master in front of her meant, whether he wanted her or not.
After half an incense stick of time, Mo Wuji asked, "Sister Yingxian, can you tell me about your past?"
Hearing Mo Wuji's words, Lian Yingxian quickly waved her hand and said in a panic, "Immortal Master, I didn't have any physical intimacy with Yu Jingshan after we got married. He was focused on cultivating immortality and was worried that breaking his Yuan Yang would affect his cultivation foundation..."
Mo Wuji said, "It's not about that. It's about your childhood, such as your parents, whether you were adopted, or whether you were frightened outside?"
Hearing Mo Wuji ask about her parents, Lian Yingxian realized that she might have misunderstood what the Immortal Master in front of her meant. After talking to Mo Wuji for a while, she felt that Mo Wuji was different from other Immortal Masters. He spoke in a very peaceful manner. She gradually relaxed and her tone became much calmer. "After my mother gave birth to me, she suffered from Qi and blood deficiency. My father kept going to Jize Sea to find all kinds of tonics to compensate for my mother's body. Until one day, my father never came back."
Speaking of this, Lian Yingxian's eyes were a little red and swollen. She wiped her eyes and continued, "After my father left, my mother didn't last long either, and she left with my father. I was only seven years old at that time. I was able to survive because Grandpa raised me."
Mo Wuji nodded. He was sure that Lian Yingxian's cultivation came from the womb. Lian Yingxian was very likely a reincarnation of a powerful being, and that powerful being had wrapped up his cultivation and memory. The Grand Luo Immortal he saw with his Spiritual Eye was only on the surface. Lian Yingxian's cultivation was very likely far more than just Grand Luo Immortal.
This sounded shocking, and Mo Wuji had never even thought about it before. However, there were many people in this universe who were stronger than him. Just because he couldn't do it or couldn't think of it didn't mean that others couldn't think of it.
"Yingxian, I checked your body just now. Don't misunderstand. I only checked your spiritual veins and some pulse points that might store immortal essence, as well as your bloodline inheritance. Your body is a bit strange, and I can't explain it clearly right now. Also, I feel that you have some spiritual roots. If you are willing, I will accept you as my disciple..." After Mo Wuji finished speaking, he looked at Lian Yingxian with some anticipation.
He had a feeling that Lian Yingxian's spiritual roots were extraordinary, but they were sealed by the crystal dot in the Purple Mansion. Once Lian Yingxian's spiritual roots were slowly released and he taught her how to cultivate immortality, her speed was likely to be faster than anyone in the Immortal World. Moreover, studying Lian Yingxian's cultivation inheritance would have very important implications for his future pursuit of the Great Dao.
"Ah..." Lian Yingxian looked at Mo Wuji in surprise, her mouth half-open in a daze.
Mo Wuji was very embarrassed. He had no choice but to continue, "Yingxian, if you don't want to become my disciple, you can still consider me your senior brother, your friend, or even as an elder..."
If Lian Yingxian wasn't willing to be his friend either, then he could only give up.
"I'm willing, I'm willing..." Lian Yingxian's tone trembled and even had a hint of crying.
Seeing the way Lian Yingxian looked at him, Mo Wuji knew how excited and uncontrollable she was at the moment. He quickly said, "If you're willing, we're like family. Don't be so restrained. Also..."
