Hearing this one guard quickly said, “City lord Ye, these two didn’t make an appointment but they want to force their way here to find you, so I stopped them.”
Even though Ye Mo did free pill concoctions, one had to make appointments to see him and had to have a certain status.
“Lin Yiban greets pill king Ye, this is my wife Xu Tong.” The middle aged man quickly saluted with his fists.
Ye Mo studied the two. Lin Yiban looked average and was short but Xu Tong was an extremely pretty woman, she was on par with Qiu Xue. The two really didn’t match but they seemed to love each other.
Ye Mo saluted with his fists. “Brother Lin, because these few days are free there are many people who come to me for pill concoction, if you want to be part of it, you can make an appointment. Even if the appointments are full, I will make an exception and concoct pills for you once.”
Ye Mo just saw Qingxue again and had a good resonance with happy couples.
Lin Yiban heard this and immediately saluted with his fists. “Thank you for your kindness pill king Ye, but I came with my wife not for pill concoction but for something else. If pill king Ye is not willing, I will leave immediately and won’t affect your business.”
Lin Yiban didn’t say what it was but he really did seem to be in trouble, so Ye Mo nodded. “In that case, come in with your wife and tell me.”
“Thank you, pill king Ye.” Lin Yiban saluted with his fists.
The two guards saw that Ye Mo agreed so they didn’t say anything. They just continued to guard outside. The restrictions inside this room was powerful enough to stop disaster transformation state cultivators.
Ye Mo let the two sit down and said, “Please tell me now what you need me for.”
“Pill king Ye, my wife and I came to join you.” Lin YIban bowed to Ye Mo.
It was quite something for a body condensation state to bow to a nascent soul state cultivator like this, even though Ye Mo was a level seven pill king.
Ye Mo was a level seven pill king now and there were too many people trying to join him. He wouldn’t care about two body condensation states saying this. Plus he had offended a lot of people – who knew if they genuinely came to join him?
Seeing that Ye Mo didn’t talk, Lin Yiban suddenly reached out a hand and said, “I, Lin Yiban, swear to the heavens that if anything I said today is false, I will never be able to successfully pass divine damnation and the divine damnation will disintergrate my soul.”
Hearing this, Ye Mo was moved. This was the most serious type of oath for cultivators.
Then Xu Tong said, “I, Xu Tong, say the same as my husband. If my husband said anything false, my soul will also be disintergrated by divine damnation.”
Ye Mo continued, “Even if you want to join me, such an oath won’t be necessary. Is there something else?”
Lin Yiban nodded. “Yes pill king Ye, we have nowhere else to go.”
Lin Yiban said, “We’re on the must kill list for the Lightning Cloud Sect, we’ve been hiding everywhere. This pill king tournament, we wanted to come here and get some pills and keep hiding, but we’ve been found by the Lightning Cloud Sect’s people. But in the Pill City, they can’t do anything. Now that the pill king tournament is over, we can’t stay here forever, so we came here seeking your protection.”
Ye Mo exclaimed to himself, this Lightning Cloud Sect was so domineering, two body condensation state cultivators were forced with nowhere to go. Ye Mo nodded. “There are so many pill kings in the Pill City, why choose me?”
Lin Yiban immediately said, “Our power isn’t really high in the Pill City so other people might not take us seriously. Other pill kings won’t offend a 9-star sect for us two. But pill king Ye is not only a level seven pill king but also the city lord of Mo Yue City. You will need people to help you so we chose you.”
Ye Mo sneered, “Other people are scared of offending 9-star sects, although I’m level seven pill king I’m only nascent soul state power – how come I dare to offend them?”
Xu Tong suddenly spoke, “Pill king Ye’s name suddenly appeared in the white jade tablet of South Peace City golden core state trial tablet. You’re the first of golden core state trial tablet. It’s said that pill king Ye left that night suddenly. Tian Aofeng was killed in the Heartless Sea, that night the Lightning Cloud Sect came to South Peace City for investigation. Many people already guessed that Tian Aofeng’s incident is related to pill king Ye….”
Ye Mo suddenly laughed, “Great, in that case, come back with me to Mo Yue City. We have a common enemy so we’re friends. My principle is that if you respect me one inch, I will respect you one meter.”
But there was something Ye Mo didn’t say – ‘If you harm me once, I will hurt you ten times.’ But he didn’t need to say it as the two both understood.
…
After the two left, Ye Mo started thinking about his Mo Yue City. He knew that they were genuinely here to join him, but the power difference between them was too great. With this, sometimes he couldn’t ask them for help for secret things.
Ye Mo shook his head and sighed, he would arrange for the two to go to Mo Yue City first. As for the herb king spirit range he was going to look for, it was best not to tell anyone.
Then, Jing Yingli brought Yi Pandie over.
Ye Mo quickly got up, he was very grateful to her. Without her, there wouldn’t be the current him.
Jing Yingli immediately waved her hand and said, “I know you want to thank me, there’s no need. You’ve already concocted pills for me, I might be asking you for help in the future. Today, I’ve brought martial sister Pandie here.”
Yi Pandie felt a little awkward and bowed. “Last time at the Truth Fall Palace forbidden grounds, thank you martial brother Ye for saving my life. Please don’t mind about my previous offenses to you…”
Ye Mo let the two sit and said, “Why mention those minor things? It was all just a misunderstanding, don’t sweat it martial sister Yi.”
“By the way, congratulations on your reunion with your wife, she’s very pretty,” Jing Yingli saw that Yi Pandie only said one sentence and fell quiet so she continued.
Ye Mo thanked Jing Yingli again and felt that there was something on her mind. He was planning to invite her to go Great Zhou mountain with him but he stopped the thought.
They spoke for a moment and Jing Yingli left with Yi Pandie. Ye Mo felt some loss, he felt that the tacit feeling between him and Jing Yingli was gone now.
That night, Ye Mo chatted with Ji Ling for an entire night and then went to the city lord estate chatting with Yue Qichao and a few pill kings for a few days, discussing pill dao. He then taught his method of concocting the Spirit Weaving Pill to Yue Qichao. Although he learnt things from the Three Birth Chant, his discussion with Yue Qichao and the pill kings proved beneficial.
Seeing that Zhao Shuntian didn’t come, Ye Mo intentionally asked. Shen Guanqing told him that Chang Shun left the Pill City. Without a doubt, Mo Youshen recognized him and Chang Shun pill king left with him.
He really wondered why this Chang Shun pill king favoured Mo Youshen that much.
Ye Mo left the city lord estate with a Hua Sang Pill. Even Ye Mo wanted to find out the pill recipe, much less Yue Qichao. From his talk with Yue Qichao, he felt that Yue Qichao probably knew he had the Heaven Glory Pill recipe, but he didn’t mention it.
Ye Mo then went towards Lu Wuhu’s place but he still wasn’t there.
Helplessly, Ye Mo took Lin Yiban and Xu Tong back to his place. After settling them down, Ye Mo was planning to go to Great Zhou mountain.
He didn’t tell anyone about it other than Ning Qingxue, not even Gu Wenqian.
“You’re going again?” Ning Qingxue was very worried about Ye Mo. She didn’t want him to leave alone after knowing his predicament.
But Ye Mo knew that if he wanted to reach hollow spirit state, just cultivating hard wans’t enough. He had the Three Birth Chant, but the amount of spirit chi he required was too great.
