Chapter 169 -169 – What’s Going On?_1
“Of course, I can.” Bai Luoran immediately receded her True Qi, raising her right hand to swear to the Heavenly Dao.
Upon hearing Bai Luoran’s oath, Mo Huasong felt relieved.
The Heavenly Dao was the highest deity of cultivators. If an oath was made to it, it certainly must be fulfilled, otherwise, a backlash from the Heavenly Dao would lead to the annihilation of one’s Divine Spirit.
Seeing this, Mo Huasong said to Dong Mengdie, “Teacher Dong, the Mysterious Palace is actually a decent place, you should consider and decide for yourself. If you really do not want to, I will fight her to the death.”
“What? Our Mysterious Palace is just decent?” Bai Luoran quivered with anger.
Did she not realize that their Mysterious Palace had a high reputation in the Cultivation Realm and intimidated the other Cultivation Sects?
“Can I really become stronger?” Dong Mengdie hesitated.
Mo Huasong, knowing that Dong Mengdie couldn’t immediately change her thinking, advised, “Ah, I advise you just go. Because the Mysterious Palace knows that you have an Innate Pure Charm Body, others will too. If you are not powerful, you will be bullied by others.”
Alas, the kind of bullying she’d face wouldn’t be ordinary — Dong Mengdie would become someone’s plaything. She would not escape this nightmare unless she died.
“If you spare Mo Huasong, I will agree to your terms. But if you don’t, I will choose suicide over becoming your apprentice,” Dong Mengdie stated.
Bai Luoran looked at Mo Huasong and Dong Mengdie angrily, but since Dong Mengdie had made her decision, there was nothing she could do.
She could prevent Dong Mengdie from killing herself this time but it would not be the same next time.
As an Innate Pure Charm Body, she was determined to acquire Dong Mengdie; a rare jewel that comes once in a thousand years.
“Alright, Mengdie, I agree. I will spare him,” Bai Luoran nodded after a moment’s hesitation.
If Bai Luoran truly tried to kill Mo Huasong with her full power, she would ultimately endure a terrifying backlash from the rules of Heaven and Earth, which would probably take her a decade to recover from, even if she managed to return to her Cultivation realm.
Therefore, seeing that Mo Huasong bore no ill intent towards Dong Mengdie, Bai Luoran no longer harbored the intention to kill.
Dong Mengdie was relieved to hear that Bai Luoran would spare Mo Huasong. But she hesitated, “But I just graduated and my family still needs money. I can’t just leave like this.”
Dong Mengdie’s family wasn’t wealthy; her parents had gone through hardships to raise her and she hadn’t repaid their kindness yet.
Mo Huasong asked Bai Luoran, “Can you give her a billion? So that she can resolve her worldly affairs.”
“Of course, I will accompany her and give her a few days to help her resolve her worldly affairs,” Bai Luoran nodded, “However, I am concerned about you revealing her secret.”
Mo Huasong grinned, “I can swear to the Heavenly Dao that I will not reveal to others that Teacher Dong has an Innate Pure Spirit Body.”
Seeing Mo Huasong make the oath, Bai Luoran felt relieved.
From what she observed earlier, she found that Mo Huasong only wanted to protect Dong Mengdie, he didn’t regard her as a furnace for cultivation. It seemed they both misunderstood.
“Mo Huasong, you can go now. But let me warn you, don’t hope in vain, Mengdie is not within your reach. After she becomes our Mysteress, she will progress by leaps and bounds, soon becoming a master of the Golden Core Stage,” Bai Luoran struck at Mo Huasong’s confidence.
Mo Huasong smiled without saying anything.
What a joke, old lady! If not for the short period of time after my rebirth, I could defeat you in seconds.
“Huh, he’s pursuing me?” Dong Mengdie’s face immediately flushed red.
Listening to Bai Luoran’s words, it did make sense.
If Mo Huasong didn’t like her, he wouldn’t have fought for her so desperately.
This kind of genuine and sincere affection was extremely rare.
Take Wei Dong for example, even when she was his girlfriend, he wanted to sell her.
Ignoring Bai Luoran’s words, Mo Huasong had already asked who she was; her name was Bai Luoran, an elder of the Mysterious Palace, holding a very high status.
“Old lady, I hope you treat Teacher Dong well. Otherwise, I will not let your Mysterious Palace off,” Mo Huasong reminded Bai Luoran.
“Rest assured. After three years, I will allow you to visit Mengdie and see how strong she has become. You will know what it means to feel inferior,” Bai Luoran looked disdainfully at Mo Huasong’s arrogant facade.
When he sees how much he’s lagging behind, he wouldn’t dare to pursue Dong Mengdie again. This would be a good thing.
Also, after three years in the Mysterious Palace, Dong Mengdie will realize her own power. Her past affection for Mo Huasong will dissipate like smoke.
Dong Mengdie glanced at Mo Huasong with a touch of joy, “Will you come to see me then?”
“I should,” said Mo Huasong after some thought, his tone serious.
A man is only as good as his word — if he promised Dong Mengdie something, he would keep his word.
He also wanted to see if Dong Mengdie was doing well in the Mysterious Palace, otherwise he was prepared to kill.
Dong Mengdie looked worriedly at Mo Huasong, afraid that he was hurt.
But Bai Luoran came over and reassured her, “Mengdie, don’t worry, he will be fine. We should also leave this place quickly. If we don’t leave now, my body won’t be able to handle it much longer.”
Just now Bai Luoran had released her power, resulting in a backlash from the rule of Heaven and Earth, causing her body to feel worse and worse.
If she did not leave now, she would really start vomiting blood.
“Okay.” Dong Mengdie followed Bai Luoran away.
The events of the night made Dong Mengdie think a lot — if she was not powerful, Gao Zhengzhong might pose a threat to her family in the future.
Therefore, she too, wanted to become a strong person like Mo Huasong.
Before leaving, Dong Mengdie glanced at Mo Huasong, “Remember to come find me.”
Mo Huasong was a bit speechless and didn’t know how to respond, so he just nodded lightly.
Only when he saw Bai Luoran and the others leave did Mo Huasong collapsed to the ground, panting heavily.
The feeling of being on the brink of death just now was truly not pleasant.
“Master, it’s fortunate Bai Luoran left, otherwise you would have been in serious danger,” the Sword Spirit worriedly remarked.
“Yes, I need to find the time to enhance my martial arts, otherwise I won’t be able to beat those people in the future,” Mo Huasong nodded in agreement.
This time, it was Bai Luoran who had come, but next time it could be other powerful cultivators in the Golden Core stage.
Although the Heavenly rules are formidable, some Golden Core experts, if they disregarded their lives, could also be extremely terrifying.
Mo Huasong sat on the ground, beginning to practice his Contrary to Heaven Yin Yang Jue.
As the surrounding Spiritual Energy continuously entered Mo Huasong’s body, he regained some strength.
“Let’s go back to Xianhe Number One,” Mo Huasong looked around. He was hiding in the dark, and had not attracted anyone’s attention.
But just as Mo Huasong was about to leave, a faint black shadow suddenly pounced towards him.
“Huh? What’s going on?” Mo Huasong stood there, shocked as the black shadow flew into his body.
Turns out, this black shadow was actually the Black Ghost Fire. Mo Huasong hadn’t been able to sense it earlier, but now he was able to.
The present Black Ghost Fire seemed much smaller, but to Mo Huasong’s delight, its strength was nearly double.
That’s why Mo Huasong was so surprised.
