Chapter 343: Wuliang Dian Cang Translator: Tim Editor: Fish Creek

“Patron Ye, what Beiwei asked is also what I’m curious about.” Jing Xian appeared silently before Ye Mo and Tang Beiwei.

Ye Mo, engrossed in his conversation with Tang Beiwei, didn’t notice Jing Xian’s arrival. Even so, he admired the nun’s skill; arriving unnoticed, even when he wasn't fully attentive, was no easy feat.

“Master,” Tang Beiwei quickly bowed.

Ye Mo looked strangely at Tang Beiwei. Had she asked Jing Xian to be her master? Why hadn’t she told him? As if seeing Ye Mo’s surprise, Jing Xian said plainly, “I instructed her a few times during her cultivation. Her method is quite extraordinary. I didn’t dare accept her as a disciple, but she insists on me being her master.”

Ye Mo immediately understood and quickly bowed, “Thank you, Jing Xian qian bei, for taking in Beiwei. I, Ye Mo, thank you.”

Although he said that, Ye Mo worried that Jing Xian would see through Tang Beiwei’s cultivation method. If his spirit chi cultivation method were discovered, it would be groundbreaking.

Jing Xian quickly clasped her hands and said, “Patron Ye, you’re too polite. Jing Xian doesn’t dare accept such praise. I see that you’ve grown stronger since last time; congratulations.”

“Brother, sorry, I didn’t have time to tell you yet. Master pointed out some meridians and chakra points for me; I cultivated the rest myself. Master said I’m not suited to the Serenity cultivation method. I just need to keep cultivating my current method,” Tang Beiwei quickly explained.

Ye Mo felt relieved. Although Tang Beiwei’s words were a little blunt toward her master, she was desperately trying to assure him she hadn’t revealed her cultivation method. Despite this, Ye Mo still wanted to create a fictional ancient martial arts cultivation method for Tang Beiwei; she could use that as an excuse if asked.

Seeing Ye Mo nod, Tang Beiwei immediately asked, “Brother, you still haven’t said how you got here?”

Ye Mo knew Jing Xian was also waiting for his answer. “I saw the metal chain was broken, so I jumped over.”

Tang Beiwei said nothing. She knew her brother possessed unusual abilities, but Jing Xian was extremely shocked. Jumped over? She wouldn’t believe it, but Ye Mo definitely came from the original path. Otherwise, how would he know the chains were broken? But if Ye Mo didn’t jump over, how did he get here?

“Jing Xian qian bei, please tell me how that metal chain broke?” Ye Mo asked. If his sister weren’t here, he wouldn’t care, but her presence demanded he know what was happening. He didn’t want his sister in any danger.

Jing Xian looked at Ye Mo. Although she knew he was lying, she couldn’t press further. She nodded and said, “Jing Xi actually agreed to the marriage between Susu and Bian Chao and secretly accepted the Dian Cang marriage gift. We knew nothing about it. But a few days ago, Dian Cang sect members came to Serenity to marry Susu, only to find she’d left. They were furious.”

Ye Mo, upon hearing this, also felt anger. Although he’d killed Jing Xi, how dare the Dian Cang people covet Luo Ying? Luo Ying was the most precious person to him in the world. They dared to even touch her.

Jing Xian sighed and continued, “Since Jing Xi is gone, we couldn’t respond to the Dian Cang people. Eventually, they injured Martial Sister Jing Ci. If it weren’t for Beiwei, they wouldn’t have stopped there.”

Tang Beiwei looked at her master in surprise. “Master, I didn’t do anything! I didn’t even know what happened. I only heard Martial Uncle Jing Hui say the metal chains were broken. Although I knew my brother could get here, I don’t know how. What does this have to do with me?”

Jing Xian looked apologetically at Tang Beiwei. “Sorry, Beiwei, I didn’t tell you. I was afraid you’d worry. The Dian Cang people were still rampaging after hurting Jing Ci, but the Dian Cang young master saw Tang Beiwei and was immediately struck. He immediately changed his target to Beiwei, requesting she marry him instead of Susu. Bian Chao was going to take Beiwei, but I stopped him, saying they needed to wait a few days for Beiwei’s brother to return.

They agreed and were concerned with appearances. So they went back to prepare a marriage gift. They’d return in three days. As for the gift they gave last time, they’d want it back when Susu returns.”

“Master…” Tang Beiwei stared at her master in shock, subconsciously clinging to Ye Mo’s arm. She thought, if her brother hadn’t come, would her master have married her off to Dian Cang?

Ye Mo’s face darkened. Although he didn’t know Jing Xi’s motives, he wouldn’t let his sister be forced into marriage.

Jing Xian glanced at Ye Mo. “Just when I didn’t know what to do, Patron Ye arrived. I can’t decide on this. If I secretly sent Tang Beiwei away, and Dian Cang found out, not only would Beiwei have nowhere to hide, but our Serenity sect and your Ye family would be destroyed.”

“Brother…” Tang Beiwei held Ye Mo’s hand tightly and called out worriedly. She knew her brother was strong, but even Serenity feared Dian Cang. She couldn’t guess if her brother could match them.

Seeing Ye Mo’s grim face and the killing intent radiating from him, Jing Xian worriedly said, “Dian Cang is unlike Serenity. Any of their elders are Earth Level. And, Dian Cang is one of the six major sects. Although they’re ranked last, their power far surpasses ours.”

Ye Mo’s face relaxed. He knew he couldn’t blame Jing Xian; she truly couldn’t do anything. Thinking this, Ye Mo nodded. “Jing Xian qian bei, thank you for taking care of Beiwei. A mere Dian Cang is no threat to me. I crushed the He Liu sect; Dian Cang is nothing to worry about.”

Jing Xian was stunned. Ye Mo destroyed the He Liu sect? Their sect was secluded and unaware of outside events.

After a moment, Jing Xian hesitantly asked, “Patron Ye, are you sure it was the He Liu sect? The He Liu sect is also one of the six major hidden sects, ranked even higher than Dian Cang.”

Ye Mo smiled. “They plotted against me for my blood coral and ambushed me, but I killed them all. Then, they tried to cause trouble for the Beijing Ye family, and I killed them all as well. By the way, Jing Xian qian bei, I want to visit the He Liu sect’s base. Do you know where it is?”

Jing Xian replied after a long pause, “Sorry, I don’t. Even if I did, I couldn’t tell you. That’s the rule of the hidden sects.”

Though he expected this, Ye Mo was still disappointed. He took his sister’s hand, bid farewell to Jing Xian, and returned to his sister’s residence.

Once there, Ye Mo asked, “Beiwei, tell me, you haven’t taught anyone else the cultivation method I taught you, right?”

Tang Beiwei immediately replied, “No, brother, I know what you taught me is different. I’m not that dumb. My master just noticed how quickly I gathered inner qi and thought my method was excellent. She never asked what I was cultivating, just gave me tips on things I didn’t understand.”

Ye Mo nodded. “Good. Never tell anyone what you’re cultivating. I’m going to stay here for a while and create an ancient martial arts cultivation method for you. If anyone asks, just say it’s that.”

“Brother, are you really going to stay here for a while?” Tang Beiwei, though still downcast, brightened at the news.

Ye Mo nodded. “That Dian Cang sect dared to scheme against you and your sister-in-law. I will make them disappear. And, I’ll stay here for a while to teach you cultivation. And, you’ve kept the blue flower blue leaf grass well. I have a purple heart vine here; I need you to grow that for me. This will be our future food. Don’t be careless with it.”

“I know, brother,” Tang Beiwei immediately replied.

Tang Beiwei hesitated before asking, “Brother, when the metal chain broke, I worried you wouldn’t be able to get here. But then, I thought you must be able to. Although you did get here, I still want to know how? Did it take a long time?”

Ye Mo smiled. “It took a few seconds; I flew over.”

Tang Beiwei’s mouth dropped open. After a moment, she dazedly said, “Brother, did you really fly over in a few seconds?”

If it were anyone else, she’d have dismissed it as nonsense, but she believed Ye Mo unconditionally. Everything he did was beyond her imagination.

Seeing Tang Beiwei still a little sad, Ye Mo patted her head. Although she seemed mature, she was still young. Before meeting him, she’d endured much hardship. Not long after meeting him, her mother passed away. Reality had been cruel to her.

“Beiwei, tonight brother will take you flying in the sky,” Ye Mo said, seeing the longing in her eyes.
