After bidding Meng Hanan farewell, Ye Mo could only be arranged to stay at Truth Treasure Allianceâs place. He was still digesting the news Meng Hanan gave him. The 12 Pill King Steps was just an immortal artifact. He didnât expect cultivators from the cultivation realm could forge immortal artifacts, how powerful must that forgery master be?
But he wasnât bad either. In such a short time, he could already forge extreme grade spirit artifacts. The only concern was that he didnât really trust Meng Hananâs promise, âYong Lanyi wonât do anything to you in the tournament.â
What about afterwards?
It was not that he didnât trust this womanâs character but he didnât trust her strength. In the cultivation realm, power was everything.
If that obnoxious girl wanted trouble with him, then as long as the alliance leader of the Sea Cultivator Alliance agrees, Meng Hanan wouldnât be able to protect him for sure. The reason Meng Hanan gave the jade slip to Ye Mo straight away was that she wasnât afraid Ye Mo would run off. Ye Mo never thought of running anyway. Plus, he knew he wouldnât be able to run away even if he wanted to, thatâs why he asked Meng Hanan if he could leave in Qu 18 Disks.
Meng Hanan said that no one has ever reached the top of the 18 disks and the most anyone has ever reached was 12. He wouldnât be teleported out unless he reached the 18th disk. But could he reach the top?
If he could, he wouldnât let Meng Hanan be responsible for his safety. His greatest assurance was his level eight formation skills. No one is allowed to know this.
He believed that even if there would be a level eight formation grand master within 100 years, it would be extremely rare. Meng Hanan said that formation skills were more important than power in the Qu 18 Disks. Perhaps he could use his formation skills to reach the 18th disk. Then, he would be able to leave whenever he wanted.
Thinking about this, Ye Mo felt a little reassured. Just when he wanted to look at the jade slip about Immortal Curl Flower, his spirit sense noticed someone at the door. It was that hollow spirit state girl, Meng Qi.
Ye Mo opened the restriction before she knocked and saluted with his fists. âMartial sister Meng, do you have any business with me?â
Meng Qi also bowed to Ye Mo and said uneasily, âMeng Qi greets martial brother Ye, Iâll be relying on your help for the Qu 18 Disks later.â
Her voice was soft like a bird singing, Ye Mo couldnât help think. Both her and the Yong Yuer who stopped him were extremely beautiful but why was the difference this huge?
Ye Mo smiled and put away the jade slip. âIâll need to thank Sister Meng for helping me get the Immortal Curl Flowerâs location.â
Meng Qi smiled, she looked at the restriction on the door but didnât speak.
Ye Mo thought and immediately shut the restriction before asking, âMartial sister Meng, do you need to say something? Come in and have a seat first.â
Meng Qi saw this and sighed, âMartial brother Ye, if you offended Yong Yuer, then I suggest you not to participate in the Qu 18 Disks. She wonât let you go, itâs useless even if my master helps. The cult lord of Tong Hai Cult adores Yong Yuer extremely, he wonât do anything to you before the competition but he will look for your trouble after it and even kill you for sure. Sea Cultivator Alliance martial uncle Wang wonât get on Yong Lanyiâs bad side for you. Plus, you damaged Yong Yuerâs favourite flying cart.â
Ye Moâs heart sunk, he knew that Yong Yuer was not easy to deal with but he didnât understand why Meng Hanan used him and Meng Qi came to tell him this. He didnât know Meng Qi at all.
Meng Qi continued, âA foreign cauldron filling state cultivator offended Yong Yuer, but to be honest he just called her spoiled and then in the end, the cultivator fled to the Cang Hai Three Islands, but he was still caught by the cult leader and even his soul was burned in the end.â
Ye Mo took a cold breath in, this was too cruel and that cultivator only called her spoiled. What was she going to do to him for damaging her chariot?
âWhy are you helping me?â Ye Mo asked.
âBecause I have a way for you to escape and if you want I can help you but thereâs one condition,â Meng Qi said.
âTell me about your condition,â Ye Mo said.
Meng Qi suddenly waved her hand and set up a few more restriction but they were too low level. Ye Mo smiled, âDonât worry, no one will know about whatâs happening in here. Donât forget, Iâm a formation master.â
Hearing this, Meng Qi blushed. She soon recovered and bit her lips before saying, âIâm not from Luo Yue continent nor Ling Island. Ten years ago, I came to a barren island in the Heartless Sea and my master passed by and saved me. In order to thank her, I stayed with her. Time went on and I got used to here so I didnât think of leaving.â
Hearing this, Ye Mo wasnât too shocked, he came from Earth too. She said she didnât leave meaning that she had a way to leave.
Meng Qi was not too used to Ye Moâs unsurprised reaction but she recovered quickly and continued, âBut last year, the Tong Hai Sectâs Young master Yong Wuzi came to Ling Island and saw me. He immediately proposed to me with my master and alliance leader Wang. My master had no ability to reject and the alliance leader didnât say anything.â
Ye Mo finally asked with surprise, âYong Yuer has a brother?â
If she was already this bad, wouldnât her brother be worse?
Meng Qi said pitifully, âYou can tell who that Yong Wuzi is from his sister. Heâs a demon, he raped his fatherâs concubine but after his father knew, not only did he not blame him, he gave his concubine to him instead. Yet, he said it wasnât exciting anymore and killed her.â
Ye Mo was dumbfounded. What was this?
âThereâs a Space Breaking Rune hidden in my dan tian but I donât have an opportunity to activate it. It must be activated in a place with very dense spirit chi, then I can go back to where I came from. I was planning to find this place when my power was high enough but I canât wait till that moment. After the Qu 18 Disks, I will be sent to the the Tong Hai Sect.â
Ye Mo fell silent and seeing this, Meng Qi said desperately, âI can use my identity to take you out of the formation on the island.â
Ye Mo suddenly asked, âHow do you know I can take you to run away? Iâm only body condensation state power, how many powerful beings are on Ling Island? If that really works, you can do it yourself and run.â
Meng Qi stared at Ye Mo and said, âI canât run very far but youâre different. You have an extreme grade cultivation artifact, a flying magic artifact. Without it, thereâs no way Yong Yuerâs flying cart couldnât chase up to you. â
Ye Mo was shook, her mind was so calculated.
Ye Mo nodded. âMartial sister Meng, youâre very meticulous but Iâm sure youâve thought things too simply. I donât need to try to know you wonât be able to take me out of the island. Even you wonât be able to leave the island at all, if you donât believe me you can try. Even if you donât watch me that Wang Cang would. I donât suggest you try because it would make things worse for you.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âHuh...â Meng Qi heard this and dazed for a moment before slumping down. She knew this but just didnât want to face reality.
