Chapter 751: Return
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The elder on the mountain peak was Tan Qiyue, the true strongest practitioner in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension and a Second Realm Martial Arts Grandmaster figure.
After the day of change in Intentionless City, Lan Zhongzhi, Zong Changsheng, and the others had returned to the main space through the Intentionless Sect’s space passageway. Many things had happened in the Fighting Spirit Tower and people were anxious to report back to their sects. They were not in the mood to stay any longer.
Mo Wen had no desire to force them to stay. There were still many things for him to deal with in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. He had no time to entertain people.
“You have already united the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. It won’t be long before you completely control the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension and hold it in the palm of your hand. There will be no ancient martial art practitioner in the entire Green Ancient Mystery Dimension who would dare disobey your command. Sooner or later, I will not be able to avoid you unless I leave the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. Therefore, I may as well join your Ming Palace right now,” Tan Qiyue said. His hands were behind his back as he gazed at the layers of mountain peaks in the distance.
Mo Wen’s ability was so strong that it would not take him long to bring the entire Green Ancient Mystery Dimension under his control. If the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension became one unit, how could Tan Qiyue stay out of the way? Also, the Ming Palace was created by Mo Wen, so its future would certainly be extraordinary. Such a faction was worthy of his attention and participation.
“Since Elder Tan sees fit to do so, our Ming Palace naturally welcomes you. The Ming Palace is coincidentally lacking a sect grand elder. If you don’t mind, I would like you to become the Ming Palace’s sect grand elder,” Mo Wen said.
The reason why Mo Wen united the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension was to prepare for the restoration the Ming Cult in the future. However, he had not directly pulled out the banner of the Ming Cult, instead calling it the Ming Palace. It was because he did not know the current situation with the Ming Preservation Faction and the Anti-Ming Faction. However, he was certain that it would be a complex issue and so revealing his identity too soon would most likely not be a good thing. He would wait until he was completely confident before he announced his true identity.
Mo Wen had also not expected that Tan Qiyue would choose to join the Ming Palace. Although the Ming Palace had united the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension, it was a surprise that an absolute strong practitioner like Tan Qiyue wanted to join.
“Palace Lord, I know you have your doubts. I have been in seclusion for more than a century. Originally, I believed that I had long lost my ambitious heart and that my only goal in life was to pursue that path of becoming immortal. But, from you, I can feel an unprecedented enthusiasm. I only felt this kind of enthusiasm when I was young and strong. Maybe by following you, I can walk a path that I have not walked on before, a path full of passion and light.” Tan Qiyue looked at Mo Wen. Indeed, what caught his eye was not the Ming Palace. Even ten of them would not attract him. It was Mo Wen alone that had captured his imagination.
Tan Qiyue could foresee that, maybe in the not too distant future, Mo Wen would shake the entire ancient martial arts world.
“Elder Tan, maybe the road ahead is not that one of light, but of darkness,” Mo Wen said.
“We can only know after having walked it. At my age and realm, nothing can bring me fear.” Tan Qiyue smiled nonchalantly. He could tell that Mo Wen was hiding something, but he did not mind. It was because he knew that a youth like Mo Wen had certainly walked an extraordinary path. In the future, it would be even more so. That was to be expected. In reality, what had caught his eye was how extraordinary Mo Wen was.
“Since it has come to this, then let us work together.” Mo We also smiled nonchalantly. Indeed, no matter how difficult the road ahead was, he would keep walking it. Until they reached the end, no one would know the ending.
For the next few days, Mo Wen stayed in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension, organizing the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension’s various large ancient martial art practitioner factions. Under the Ming Palace, he established three main pavilions: the Purple Qi Pavilion, the Five Beast Pavilion, and the Intentionless Pavilion.
Compared to the Purple Qi Pavilion and the Five Beast Pavilion, originally the Intentionless Pavilion was not qualified to be considered a pavilion. But as a large number of ancient martial art practitioner sects joined, Mo Wen focused on bolstering the Intentionless Pavilion’s forces, reducing the difference between the Intentionless Pavilion and the other two pavilions by quite a bit.
After three days, Mo Wen handed over the matters of the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension to Chen Wuhui and other trustworthy people to manage. He and Chen Zi passed through the Intentionless Sect’s space passageway and returned to the main space.
On a nameless mountain peak, the space contorted. Two silhouettes walked out from nowhere. They were Mo Wen and Chen Zi.
“Before this, not even in my dreams had I ever imagined that so many things would happen in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension.” Chen Zi looked at Mo Wen with a somewhat complicated look. She felt an indescribable feeling inside. They had headed into the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension to introduce Mo Wen to the Intentionless Sect seniors. Who would have thought that, along the way, so many things would happen?
In just over a month, Mo Wen had become the supreme person in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension, uniting and ruling over an entire mystery dimension. Even though the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension was a small Inner world, it was something that she had never dared to imagine.
“You do not need to feel overly pressured. Leaving aside my status in the Ming Palace, we are still friends.” Mo Wen looked at Chen Zi. She seemed unable to accept such a change in a short amount of time.
Chen Zi rolled her eyes at Mo Wen and said, “You are the Supreme Palace Lord in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension, but outside you are just a Huatian Palace Four-stars Executor. Your status is the same as mine. What’s the matter? Even when we are not in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension, you want me to address you as Palace Lord and kneel before you, is it?”
Mo Wen smiled, not bothering to argue with Chen Zi.
“What are you going to do next?” Chen Zi asked. She was preparing to return to the Huatian Palace and to continue training through experience.
In reality, many Inner world youth ancient martial art practitioners, such as Pei Fengwu and Jin Ying, would choose to train through experience in the Huatian Palace. The Huatian Palace was very suitable for youths like them.
“Of course, I am going back to the university. I’ve been away for more than two months. Who knows what will happen when I return?”
Mo Wen rolled his eyes. He was feeling a headache coming on. He had left more than a month ago. He also had not expected that so many things could happen in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension.
When he got back, how was he going to explain his absence to Shen Jing and Qin Xiaoyou?
Just imagining the two women getting into an argument gave Mo Wen a headache. There was also Lin Qing to consider. Although the entire Blue Ocean Group had been handed over to her to manage, she could not settle every matter that came her way. Many things still required Mo Wen to settle them. When he had disappeared for so long, Lin Qing must have been in a terrible fix.
“Such a depressing problem.” Mo Wen massaged his temple.
“What is it? Worried that your backyard caught fire?” Chen Zi said meaningfully as she glanced at Mo Wen. She had vaguely guessed what he was going through from Mo Wen’s expression. It was difficult for ordinary matters to cause this man to frown.
“Busybody. Let’s go our separate ways. I do not plan to return to the Huatian Palace headquarters.” Mo Wen rolled his eyes at Chen Zi. Then, with a flicker of his silhouette, his entire person had disappeared from the mountain peak. In the blink of an eye, he had vanished into thin air without a trace.
“Hey, you…” Chen Zi’s eyes glared. She was just about to speak when she noticed that Mo Wen had already completely disappeared. She stomped her foot furiously and cursed him. “Narrow-minded.”
On a highway outside the capital, a youth wearing fashionable clothing with his hands tucked into his jeans was walking alone.
In the cars passing by, the drivers looked at the youth with strange gazes. There was actually a person strolling on the highway. Was this person mad? Why was he on the highway? Was he not afraid to die? The cars that were driving at high speeds avoided the youth. They were afraid that he would suddenly go mad and commit a dangerous act.
This youth was none other than Mo Wen, who had just emerged from the wilderness.
The road was the outskirts of the capital. In large cities like these, even Mo Wen did not dare to simply fly. The Huatian Palace had clearly stated that ancient martial art practitioners could not disturb normal citizens or draw attention to themselves. If they did, they would be severely punished.
Hence, when he was still far from the city, Mo Wen descended from the sky and chose to walk along the highway leading into the city.
Mo Wen was walking with his head down. He suddenly raised his eyebrows. He walked into the middle of the highway and stretched his arms out wide, as though he was hugging the ocean.
In the distance, a black Rolls-Royce Phantom was cruising over like a bolt of lightning. Seeing that there was suddenly a person standing in the middle of the road, the driver furiously braked. It managed to come to a halt just in front of Mo Wen.
Bang!
The driver-side door opened, and a tall girl with short hair and an exquisite face got out of the car. She was wearing a woman’s suit.
“Hey, do you want to die? If so, jump off a building. Don’t stand on the highway and get others into trouble.”
The short-haired girl was rather fiery and she scolded Mo Wen. Anyone who encountered such an incident on the highway would become angry.
“You’ve misunderstood. I do not want to die. I just want to catch a ride,” Mo Wen said as he walked towards the short-haired girl with a smile.
Catch a ride? Upon hearing this, the short-haired girl immediately felt both angry and amused. She never expected that someone would stop her car just to catch a ride.
“You are crazy. Quickly get out of my sight.” The short-haired girl glared at him. She put her little hands together and made a cracking sound. She was clearly hinting to Mo Wen that she had practiced martial arts and was warning him to be careful.
“Young lady, why do you need to be angry? We were fated to meet. For me to catch a ride with you is also fated. Among so many people, why did I not stop any other person’s car, but instead stopped yours? It is because we are fated,” Mo Wen said smiling.
“What? You mean to say that because you stopped my car on the highway, I should be feeling honored?” The short-haired girl laughed coldly. Such a pickup line was practically too lame.
“If you feel honored, I can’t do anything about it, can I?” Mo Wen said with a smile.
“Brat, you need to be taught a lesson. If you don’t leave now, I’ll kill you.” The short-haired girl furiously took two steps forward. It seemed that if Mo Wen did not leave soon, she would attack.
“Little Tang, let him get in.”
A gentle voice suddenly sounded from the back of the car. The voice was very relaxed but contained a hint of charm. Just by listening to the voice, the image of an enchanting woman would appear in one’s mind.
Upon hearing this, the short-haired girl called Little Tang was slightly stunned. She had not expected that the young mistress would actually let this crazy Eighth Grader Syndrome youth get in the car.
“Humph, consider yourself lucky. Get in the car. Once we are in the city, get out of my sight,” the short-haired girl, Little Tang, said coldly.
