Chapter 761: Persistence

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Mo Qingtian had an important position in Huatian Palace and he knew about many things. He even knew that Mo Wen had asked about the disappearance of the two girls, but that was no surprise. Qin Xiaoyou must have asked Dongfang Yi for help before Mo Wen’s return. Anything that Dongfang Yi knew about, Mo Qingtian did as well.

Mo Wen had not had the time to investigate the girls’ disappearance yet. Mo Qingtian told him about the conclusion of the matter.

“Only one of them ended up in the Ghost Lair’s hands?” Mo Wen asked with a frown. Yun Xiaoman and Xu Qianqian had both gone missing. But Mo Qingtian said that only one of them was in the Ghost Lair’s hands. Where was the other girl?

“Huatian Palace only found out about one girl, Xu Qianqian. We don’t know whether the other girl is with the Ghost Lair.”

Huatian Palace’s surveillance system might be powerful, but they could not find out everything. Mo Qingtian did not know whether Yun Xiaoman had ended up in the hands of the Ghost Lair.

“That’s odd. Xu Qianqian is just an ordinary girl. Why did the Ghost Lair become interested in her?” Mo Wen asked in confusion.

He did not know what the Ghost Lair was planning. But he knew that most of the girls captured by them were girls from the ancient martial arts world. They rarely captured ordinary people. The more powerful the sacrifice, the higher the success rate of the sacrificial ritual.

“Don’t you know?” Mo Qingtian looked at Mo Wen oddly.

“Know what?”

“That Xu Qianqian has already started on the martial arts way. This is related to you as well. If not for you, this would not have happened.”

Mo Wen, who was apparently the instigator of the matter, had no idea about it. What’s the situation here?” He was a little confused.

“Didn’t you give her a book on how to cultivate the Seven Injury Fist?” Mo Qingtian said lightly.

“Could it be...” An odd glint flashed in Mo Wen’s eyes. Did Xu Qianqian really cultivate in the Seven Injury Fists? She was just an ordinary person. Without anyone to show her the way, how could she have cultivated in such a difficult and deep ancient martial arts skill?

“The girl not only cultivated in the Seven Injury Fists: she was rather accomplished at it too.”

“How is that possible? I only gave her the method to cultivate the Seven Injury Fists two months ago. No matter how talented a person is, she would not be able to cultivate the Seven Injury Fists at a proficient level!” Mo Wen could hardly believe it. The Seven Injury Fists was difficult to cultivate and was not suitable for women. When he had first given Xu Qianqian the method to the Seven Injury Fists, it had been a spontaneous act. He never thought that she would succeed in cultivating it.

She had managed to cultivate the Seven Injury Fists to a proficient level in just two months. Not even Qin Xiaoyou could beat her.

“It would, of course, be impossible under ordinary circumstances. However, when you gave her the method to the Seven Injury Fists, did she cultivate carelessly?” Mo Qingtian looked at Mo Wen. He smiled helplessly and said, “The girl took your Seven Injury Fists manual and practiced it carelessly. In the end, she lost control. But she was lucky, and it was very strange. Nothing happened, and she eventually became rather accomplished at the Seven Injury Fists. I thought it was odd at first. After all, the chances of this happening are so small that they are practically impossible. A person who did not know martial arts would definitely die if they lost control. She was caught by the Ghost Lair after that. I realized that this probably had something to do with her special physical constitution.”

“What physical constitution does she have?” Mo Wen was rather shocked. He would never have expected that things would become like this, not even in his wildest dreams.

“I still do not know. I am only guessing. After all, the Ghost Lair discovered her first and then took her away.”

Mo Qingtian shook his head and said, “So you have to go with us if you want to save her. The mission this time is not only to just stop the Ghost Lair. We also need to save more than 300 girls in the Ghost Lair’s hands who they are going to use as sacrifices.”

“When will this be?” Mo Wen got straight to the point because he would be going with them. Furthermore, Xu Qianqian was involved in this. They were friends and he would not just stand by and not help her.

Mo Qingtian shook his head. “I can’t tell you that right now. After all, this mission is very important, so we have to keep things confidential. I will inform you immediately once the time comes.”

Mo Wen did not mind. He lowered his head slightly and drank his tea. Then, he served Mo Qingtian more tea before sending him off. He had just returned and so many things had happened. He was not in the mood to chat with Mo Qingtian about anything.

“You are quite a straightforward person.” Mo Qingtian could not help but smile. He did not say anything else and got up to leave.

“Try to find time to go to Huatian Palace in the next two days. The Martial Arts Grandmaster Hall has taken charge of the Ghost Lair Mission. If you join the Martial Arts Grandmaster Hall beforehand, it would be much more convenient for you,” Mo Qingtian said before he left. Then, he flicked his sleeves and disappeared silently. He did not leave any traces behind. Not even Mo Wen could sense how he had left the courtyard.

“That’s interesting.” Mo Wen held a teacup in his hands and he smiled interestedly. How did a warrior in the mid-Embryonic Breathing Realm accomplish such a high-level and undetectable skill? He was rather curious now about why a person like Mo Qingtian would hide in Huatian Palace.

“Are you leaving again?” Qin Xiaoyou stood behind Mo Wen. She had not interrupted earlier at all. She only spoke up sadly after Mo Qingtian left. She knew from the conversation she had overheard that Mo Wen was about to get busy again.

“I won’t be going too soon. I will stay at home for the next few days.” Mo Wen smiled and patted Qin Xiaoyou’s head. The girl liked sticking to others, but she was also very sensible.

“Why do I always feel like we are from two different worlds? When can I stay with you?” Qin Xiaoyou buried herself in Mo Wen’s embrace. Tears fell down her cheeks without her noticing. She had tried very hard to cultivate, but she felt that the distance between her and Mo Wen was growing wider and wider.

“Silly, there will be a chance in the future. Furthermore, I can’t always be working out there. There will come a time when I have to settle down.”

Mo Wen could naturally tell what Qin Xiaoyou was thinking. However, he had never considered that he could take her around the world with him and fight hand in hand with her. The girl was talented, but true powerhouses grew when faced with adversity. No matter how talented a person was, they would not be able to truly grow if they cultivated at home.

However, when he thought about it, he was reluctant to take Qin Xiaoyou with him out there to undergo challenges. He had always thought that it was sufficient for Qin Xiaoyou to be able to protect herself. He would not ask for anything else.

“Do you think I am not capable? Don’t think that I can’t sense that.” Qin Xiaoyou leaned into Mo Wen’s chest, tears dripping down.

“No.” Mo Wen shook his head immediately. “Can you not be so sharp?” he thought secretly to himself.

“You do.” Qin Xiaoyou harrumphed softly. She bit her lips and said, “No matter what you think, and no matter whether you believe it or not, I will keep working towards my goal and continue down this path forever.”

“I believe that. Why wouldn’t I?” Mo Wen smiled bitterly.

“Humph, I’m going to go cook now. You go take a look at Teacher Shen Jing. Aren’t your medical skills top-notch? You should be able to save your lover.” Qin Xiaoyou turned around. She could not be bothered with Mo Wen’s perfunctory words.

Dongfang Yi visited in the afternoon. He must have made the trip down especially when he found out that Mo Wen was back.

“Mo Wen, you’re finally willing to return.” Dongfang Yi rolled his eyes when he saw Mo Wen. He felt that everyone in the room found it easier to see a transvestite than to see Mo Wen.

“Why have you come to find me?” Mo Wen said straightforwardly. Someone like Dongfang Yi would not come to look for him if he did not need anything.

“Why else would I come to look for you? I have come because of your matter. Your Qin Xiaoyou almost bothered me to death. She followed me around and pestered me to investigate the disappearance of Yu Xiaoman and Xu Qianqian. The results are out, so I came to find you immediately,” Dongfang Yi said in a rather annoyed tone. He didn’t mind when Mo Wen came to look for him, but Mo Wen’s woman came to find him whether something was the matter or not. He was like everyone’s servant. However, he did not dare to treat anything to do with Mo Wen carelessly.

“Oh, you have news about Yun Xiaoman?” Mo Wen’s eyes lit up.

“I didn’t find anything out about Yun Xiaoman’s disappearance, but I found something out about Xu Qianqian. If I’m not wrong, she should be in the Ghost Lair’s hands. This is rather troublesome,” Dongfang Yi frowned. He said somewhat helplessly, “I don’t think you should interfere in such a matter with your abilities. I think you should know some things about the Ghost Lair. I heard that the Ghost Lair has gone really big this time. It won’t be easy to handle. But don’t worry. Huatian Palace is taking this matter really seriously. Perhaps they might do something about it.”

Even though there was news about Xu Qianqian, Dongfang Yi felt that there was not much of a point in telling Mo Wen about it. After all, the Ghost Lair was involved in it. No matter how powerful Mo Wen was, he would not be able to interfere in this matter.

“Oh, do you only have news of Xu Qianqian? Do you not know anything about where Yun Xiaoman is?” Mo Wen frowned slightly. Huatian Palace’s surveillance system was not simple. Whatever it was that Huatian Palace could not find out would not be simple either. Was there some secret behind Yun Xiaoman’s disappearance? Who was the one who had taken her?

As for news about Xu Qianqian, Mo Wen already knew without Dongfang Yi telling him about it. Mo Qingtian had told him about it earlier. Even though Dongfang Yi was a member of the Heaven’s eye, he was not as well-informed as Mo Qingtian.

Dongfang Yi’s position and abilities meant that it was impossible for him to know that Mo Wen and Mo Qingtian were in direct contact. He did not even know Mo Qingtian’s position in Huatian Palace. If he knew, he would not have come to Mo Wen to inform him of the news.

“Yun Xiaoman’s disappearance is a little weird. The Heaven’s Eye is already investigating this matter seriously. However, there is not much useful news. I fear that this matter is not as straightforward as it seems. The people who have taken her are not simple,” Dongfang Yi said gravely. The Heaven’s Eye had not been able to find out anything after so long. This meant that the matter was highly unusual.

“Forget about Yun Xiaoman’s disappearance for now. I have something to ask you about Shen Jing. Who was the one who forced her to marry?”

A cold glint flashed in Mo Wen’s eyes. He wanted to see who had dared to touch his woman. Even though it was Shen Jing’s adoptive parents who had forced her to marry, the other party would have to be involved as well.
