Ye Mo sneered. He finally understood why Luo Xuan wanted him to come and even said that he was her boyfriend. It was not just Huo Que that had intentions for her, even Huo Quou this old fart wanted her. Otherwise, why did he have such killing intent when Luo Xuan introduced him.
Seeing that Ye Mo just smiled plainly and didn’t show any customs, Luo Xuan quickly pulled Ye Mo behind and said: "Grandpa Huo, Mo Ying doesn’t really like to talk. Please don’t mind him."
"Haha, it’s fine. Young people, it’s natural to be a bit shy. Come, I’ll take you to the library." Huo Quou brought the two to the library and said: "look for a while first, then we can eat lunch later."
Ye Mo’s spirit sense followed Huo Quou and found that after he left the library, his face sunk into bleakness and ordered: "Notify Que to come back immediately, and…."
Although Ye Mo didn’t hear the words afterwards, he knew that this old guy wasn’t as good to talk to as he seemed.
"What are you looking at? I hope you don’t mind me saying that you are my boyfriend. You don’t know how annoying that Huo Que is. And, his grandpa always likes to pull me together with him. If possible, I really don’t want to come." Luo Xuan said apologetically. Her face was a bit blushed.
Ye Mo smiled, "Of course I wouldn’t mind. You need to be faster at finding your book. That Huo Que would be coming soon. How long do you think you will need?"
"This quick? I heard Zi Yun say that Huo Que was going out today. He shouldn’t be back so quick. I think it’s going to take me a day. Do you see how many books are here?" Luo Xuan said helplessly. The books here were kept rather well. But because they had been there for so long, they had some ancient smells.
"You need that long?" Ye Mo frowned. After a while, he said: "what are you looking for? I’ll help you look for it."
Luo Xuan didn’t hide anything and immediately replied: "My master wants me to find a copy of NI Luo Sutra. I’ve been searching for it in the uni library for a year or so but I still hadn’t found it."
"You don’t need to look for it. I will help you." Then, Ye Mo scanned his spirit sense on these books.
Luo Xuan looked at Ye Mo in surprise and asked: "There are so many books here. How are you going to find it? How about we look for it together?"
Ye Mo waved his hand, "Don’t move. I’m calculating where this book would be."
Luo Xuan looked at Ye Mo with even more uncertainty. Was he a prophet or something? Even a prophet wouldn’t be able to predict where the Ni Luo Sutra would be in this place.
This Mo Ying was too magical. Not only a pill master and Mao Mountain disciple, was he also a prophet?
Although she was dubious about Ye Mo’s words, Luo Xuan still didn’t interrupt Ye Mo. She chose to believe Ye Mo. She felt the more she knew about Mo Ying, the more confused she was about him. The first time they met, she thought she saw through him but now, it was getting more and more unclear.
Ye Mo’s spirit sense quickly scanned through the books here but didn’t find anything. Was the Ni Luo Sutra not here? He scanned it carefully a second time but soon found something wasn’t right.
In a Dao De Sutra, there were two pages in the middle that was blank and one page had the hidden words Ni Luo. The other page was empty and had nothing. This book was strange. If he didn’t have spirit sense, he wouldn’t even be able to see it.
Ye Mo walked over to that Dao De Sutra and took it.
Seeing Ye Mo do that, Luo Xuan asked strangely: "Mo brother, this is a Dao De Sutra. I’m trying to find Ni Luo Sutra.
Ye Mo smiled faintly and said: "Don’t worry." Then, he flipped to the two blank pages. However, due to it was an ancient book, the pages were rather yellow.
"There’s nothing here. Usually, these ancient books have some blank pages. These pages are for readers to write comments and notes." Luo Xuan said.
Ye Mo flipped it to that single page and said: "Look carefully."
"Ni Luo?" Luo Xuan almost yelled out but soon, she took the book from Ye Mo’s hands excitedly. She said joyfully: "It really is Ni Luo. This must be the Ni Luo sutra. Hmm, this is the latter half. There should be a former half."
Luo Xuan quickly saw the two letters Luo Nie.
Ye Mo scanned his spirit sense again but said: "The former half isn’t here, I didn’t see it."
"See it? Aren't you calculating it? Mo brother, you really are capable. You can even calculate this." Luo Xuan’s eyes were full of admiration. She didn’t have much hope at the very beginning and her sect just gave her this mission to test her luck. But, she actually found it.
"Thank you, Ye brother….." Luo Xuan held on the book tightly.
But Ye Mo wasn’t so optimistic like Luo Xuan. He said: "Luo Xuan, I suspect that Huo Quou wouldn’t let you take the book out so easily. Even if you ask him for it, what if he disagrees? Plus, if he noticed what was wrong with this book, he wouldn’t let you take it away no matter what."
Hearing Ye Mo’s words, Luo Xuan frowned. Obviously, she also realized this problem.
"Don’t worry, I have a way to take it out for you, hmm…." Ye Mo suddenly stopped talking and looked at the book contemplating again.
"What’s wrong?" Luo Xuan asked immediately."
"Give me the book again." Ye Mo took it from Luo Xuan and pulled the second blank page. With a little force, it fell. It was only put inside but not a part of the book itself.
Ye Mo looked at the page for a while and ripped it again. This time, it wasn’t ripped apart.
"Huh…." Luo Xuan also saw Ye Mo’s actions. He didn’t even rip apart a piece of paper. She was stunned as well.
Ye Mo held this paper in the middle of his palm and used hi chi fire. This paper was immediately burnt to ash. A golden paper with similar size to the pagew appeared in Ye Mo’s hands.
"What is this?" Luo Xuan asked in amazement. Although she didn’t know what this was, she knew that this extremely thing golden paper was very valuable.
Ye Mo was very shocked. This golden paper was too scary because as soon as he scanned his spirit sense in, it immediately disappeared as though sand into sea. This was definitely something significant.
Ye Mo knew how to make magic artefact and had seen some spirit artefact as well. He even saw his master’s magic artefact but this gold paper gave him a feel that he couldn’t see through. This thing must be more valuable than all spirit artefact. Ye Mo even thought this was a spirit relic. But this was too astonishing.
Spirit relic was in the legends even in cultivation realm. How could it appear on the earth? Plus, he never heard of cultivators on the earth.
"This thing is very precious, precious to a degree that I can’t fathom." Ye Mo fell silent for a while before answering.
Luo Xuan also understood and looked hesitantly at Ye Mo saying: "Is this thing very important to you?"
Ye Mo nodded, "Yes, very." He really wanted this golden paper but he knew that since Luo Xuan wanted this book, it meant that this was the thing their sect was also looking for.
Luo Xuan bit her lips and after a while she said: "Since it’s useful to you, then take it. I don’t know anything. I’ll take back this book. If I take back other things, my sect won’t be able to know what they are anyways and would perhaps just leave them there."
Ye Mo looked at Luo Xuan in astonishment. She actually gave this golden paper to him.
Seeing Ye Mo’s reaction, Luo Xuan suddenly breathed easy: "To be honest, without your help, I wouldn’t be able to find this as well. Perhaps my sect just wants to see this book and your paper just happened to be put inside. You found it so of course it belongs to you. Don’t worry. I won’t tell anyone. And, this thing isn’t really useful to me anyways."
Suddenly, Ye Mo’s face changed and the golden leaf and paper disappeared. He looked strangely at Luo Xuan and said: "Luo Xuan let’s go, Huo Que is back."
"Okay, we found the thing anyway." As soon as Luo Xuan and Ye Mo walked out of the library, Huo Que’s voice sounded, "Xuan Xuan, you didn’t even tell me that you were coming here. I’m back."
Luo Xuan frowned but didn’t say anything.
Huo Quou with the company of a middle aged man came over. He saw Luo Xuan walk out of the library and was a little bemused. He said: "Luo Xuan, aren’t you going to look at the books?"
Luo Xuan smiled and said: "Grandpa Huo, my sister just called me saying that she needs me. I want to go over and see first and come back in a few days."
"Huh….. Xuan Xuan, why are you leaving already? Don’t be in such a hurry. I’ll help you find your sister later. let’s eat lunch first." Huo Que said desperately. Ye Mo was automatically ignored by him.
"No need, I’m going. Good bye grandpa Huo. Let’s go, Mo Ying." Then, Luo Xuan grabbed Ye Mo’s hand and before Huo Quou could reply, they just walked out.
Huo Quou looked carefully on Ye Mo and didn’t find him carrying any books with him. Then, he looked bleakly at Luo Xuan. Just when he wanted to say something, he was pulled by the man next to him.
When he reacted, Luo Xuan and Ye Mo had been long gone. Huo Quou signaled Huo Que with his eyes and Huo Que immediately followed, rambling something behind Luo Xuan.
"Martial brother Liang, why did you pull me?" Huo Quou looked at the man and asked.
The middle aged man said with a bleak face: "Martial brother, do you know who that man was? He is Ye Mo, the one who took the blood coral."
"Then what are we waiting for? Hurry up and stop them." Huo Quou said desperately.
