Chapter 342: Hurt
Translator: Tim Editor: Fish Creek
When Ye Mo woke up again, he felt that the spirit chi here had dissipated. He then stood up with regret. He felt his power went up a level. Although he was still stage 4, he wouldn’t be short on spirit chi if he flew from Ning Hai to Hong Kong on the flying sword.
Ye Mo felt hungry and this shocked him. Normally, it would be fine if he didn’t eat for two or three days but now he was hungry meaning that it had been at least more than 3 days.
Thinking about the time he missed, Ye Mo got on the flying sword and headed straight for Ning Hai.
When Ye Mo came to Ning Hai, he still saw Yang Jiu and Han Zai guarding outside of Wei Xian.
The two were already very desperate. Ye Mo said he would be back the second day or that night. But now, it was the 4th day and Ye Mo still hadn’t come looking for them. Despite this, the two didn’t leave Ning Hai.
Although he didn’t know why Ye Mo hasn’t come back yet, Yang Jiu had the premonition that something happened to Earth Fiend. He knew about the strict rules in Earth Fiend. They hadn’t reported back in a few days. If Earth Fiend was still fine, they would’ve come looking for them in Ning Hai. Since they still hadn’t come, it meant that something happened to Earth Fiend.
This was the reason why Yang Jiu and Han Zai still hadn’t left.
When Ye Mo came back, they saw him immediately and came up greeting him. After some talk, Ye Mo realized that he had been cultivating for 4 days, no wonder his stomach was hungry.
"Qian bei, I’ve dealt with that Xie guy. He wanted to scheme against you and Ms. Su Jingwen. We caught his evidence. We’re wondering now if we should kill him?" Yang Jiu was very reverent to Ye Mo. He knew that Ye Mo went to annihilate the Earth Fiend and now that he was back. Although he didn’t dare to ask about the result, he had connections and found signs. Accompanied with his previous guesses, Yang Jiu immediately knew that something really happened to the Earth Fiend.
Ye Mo waved his hand: "You two can deal with him. It’s better if you can get some money out of him but even if you can, don’t let him live too easily. As for his life, it doesn’t matter if it’s taken or not. After this, you two immediately go to Flowing Snake and look for my second brother Xu Ping. I have some people starting out a company for me at Flowing Snake. There will be places for you. After I deal with some things, I will also go to Flowing Snake. As for Earth Fiend, you don’t need to worry about them. I have pulled them up from their roots."
Yang Jiu and Han Zai looked at Ye Mo in shock. He actually annihilated the Earth Fiend. Pulling such a big hitmen organization from its roots. This was only a few days. Ye Mo seemed more mysterious in their hearts now.
….
After arranging the two, Ye Mo didn’t go look for Su Jingwen. He went straight to Xuan Jiang. He still had a goal and that was to go to the He Liu Sect.
But Ye Mo was disappointed to find that the Xuan Jiang Zhang family didn’t know about Zhang Zhihui at all. When he went to the family leader, only then did he know about Zhang Zhihui. However, the leader told Ye Mo that Zhang Zhihui hadn’t met up with them nor contacted them for a long time.
Ye Mo estimated. It was actually after he sent Zhang Zhihui to annihilate the Broken Fist Hall, there was no longer any news of Zhang Zhihui.
Putting that aside, Ye Mo went to Wu Liang mountain. Since the Earth Fiend was gone, he needed to bring back his sister Tang Beiwei.
Wuliang mountain still looked the same with many tourists.
Ye Mo came to the entrance of Serenity. On the platform, he realized that the chain to Serenity had gone.
Someone cut the metal chains? Ye Mo was shocked. This definitely wouldn’t’ be by Serenity because although the hidden sects didn’t go into the world, they would still have connections to the outside world. They still had some necessities that they needed to trade.
If his sister wasn’there, he wouldn’t be so worried but she was.
Ye Mo immediately stood on the flying sword and came to the opposite side of the cliff. Soon, he went into the Serenity valley. Coming out of the tunnel and at the end of the small road, it was the front door of Serenity. He scanned his spirit sense in.
Tang Beiwei was looking after the blue flower blue leaf grass and seemed to be very focused. It was as though nothing could move her attention from it.
Ye Mo breathed easy. Tang Beiwei was fine. Looking at where she lived, it seemed fine. Jing Xian didn’t mistreat his sister.
Ye Mo quickly went into the yard that his sister was in and called, "Beiwei."
Tang Beiwei turned around abruptly and saw Ye Mo. She dropped the spade in her hands without a thought and ran away pulling Ye Mo’s arm and said with a face full of joy: "Brother, you’re here."
Ye Mo patted her shoulder apologetically and didn’t know how to say it to her.
"What’s wrong? Brother." Tang Beiwei felt Ye Mo’s hesitation and asked desperately. She had a bad feeling in her heart.
"Beiwei, sorry, brother went a little late, and your mother has already passed away…." Ye Mo took out Tang Jing’s ashes and passed it to Tang Beiwei. Although he knew this would only make her sad, he didn’t know any other way to bring it to Tang Beiwei.
Tang Beiwei let go of Ye Mo’s hands and took the box in disbelief. She couldn’t say anything for a long time. Although Tang Jing wasn’t her real mother, in her heart, no one could take Tang Jing’s place. Tang Jing was her mother.
But her mother was taken to Beijing. How long had it been? And an ash box was brought back. She couldn’t take it. she couldn’t believe it. Her mother went to enjoy life not die. Why did things have to be this way? Why? Tang Beiwei was frozen.
Ever since she was young, her mother used her weak shoulders to bring her up to adult because nothing could stop the love a mother had for her daughter. Whether it was raining or windy, snow or hail, her mother always pushed that little cart sheltering her.
But today, the daughter grew up. The mother still wasn’t able to enjoy life yet and left like that.
"Mum…." Tang Beiwei held the ash box in daze and cried out. She knelt down, tears raining down.
Ye Mo looked at Tang Beiwei crying and didn’t try to comfort her. She needed to cry out the sorrow in her heart now.
After a long while, Tang Beiwei’s voice was even sounding coarse. Then Ye Mo carried her up, "Beiwei, aunty had left. She definitely don’t want to see you like this. Find a place and lay your mother to rest."
Tang Beiwei sniffed and looked at Ye Mo before hugging him and crying again. Lucky she still had a brother. If she didn’t have her brother and her mother died, then she wouldn’t have anyone in this world. She would just be living alone in this world and lose the will to live.
….
Outside Serenity under a pine tree, Tang Beiwei piously buried her mother’s ashes.
She inscribed on the tomb stone, "Sweet mother Tang Jing’s grave, erected by daughter Tang Beiwei."
This was all done by Tang Beiwei. Ye Mo didn’t intervene. After Tang Beiwei had done all that, Ye Mo went down on his knees and kowtowed a few times with Tang Beiwei.
"Beiwei, come with me, I’ll take you to my company." Ye Mo saw that Tang Beiwei was getting more and more morose so he wanted to take her out and lighten up her mood.
Tang Beiwei shook her head, "Brother, I don’t want to leave yet. The people here are very nice to me and I also like the life here. Mum just left, I still want to stay with her for a while."
"Beiwei, you…." Ye Mo didn’t expect Tang Beiwei’s decision to stay in such an enclosed place.
Tang Beiwei walked by Ye Mo’s side and held onto his arm before saying slowly: "Brother, other than you, I have no other kin in this world. I know you’re going out to find Luo Ying. I might as well wait for you here. After you find her, you can bring her to see me."
Then, she stayed silent for a while before saying softly: "Brother, sometimes, I really hope I’m not your sister. If I’m not, I will marry you and go find Luo Ying with you."
Tang Beiwei was very clear in her mind that even if she left with Ye Mo, she would still be living by herself. Ye Mo would be going out to find Luo Ying. And, she was used to living here.
Ye Mo rubbed Tang Beiwei’s hair and said: "Don’t talk nonsense. let’s go to where you stay first."
"Mhm, brother, the blue flower blue leaf grass you gave me last time grew another flower." Tang Beiwei seemed to have recovered a little from the sadness.
Ye Mo nodded and said: "Mhm, I’ve seen it already. You’ve taken good care of it. Thank you, Beiwei. And, your cultivation is going well too. You have reached stage one. You still need to work hard though. I will teach you properly this time before I go."
Tang Beiwei shook her head however, "Brother, I don’t like you saying thank you to me. And, I will
work hard. Mhm, brother, by the way, how did you get in here?"
