Chapter 356: Luo Fei with Nowhere to Go Translator: Tim Editor: GlobeGlotter

However, Ye Mo immediately worried. Luo Xuan’s senior martial sister wouldn’t harm her, but what if Luo Xuan discovered the Ni Luo Sutra was on Luo Ying? What then?

Ye Mo was sure Luo Xuan would be killed if she knew the Ni Luo Sutra was on her senior martial sister. He just didn’t know if the senior martial sister could do it.

Ye Mo sighed. Three sisters, all ruined by the Ni Luo Sutra. He looked sympathetically at Luo Fei and asked slowly, “Is there someone you suspect?”

Luo Fei hesitated, then shook her head. Even if she suspected her senior martial sister, she wouldn’t say so.

Blood dripped down Luo Fei’s leg, and Ye Mo realized her situation was worse than it appeared. Her makeup masked it, but the sweat on her forehead told a grim story.

“You’re having a miscarriage?” Ye Mo frowned, understanding the gravity of the situation. After hearing Luo Fei’s words, his killing intent vanished, replaced by sympathy. She was clearly too inexperienced to be enchanted by the handsome and gentlemanly Qi Yulin.

Ye Mo shook his head, thinking this woman was truly tragic. She carried his child and was hunted by him. The man had even kicked the child. No wonder she told Qi Yulin she didn’t care about her life, but there was something she did care about—the child.

He thought of the saying, “Men fear the wrong career; women fear the wrong man.” Luo Fei’s situation was a classic example. She sacrificed so much, yet he didn’t believe her and hunted her down.

Ye Mo produced a Lotus Life Pill and placed it in Luo Fei’s mouth. It melted instantly, releasing life force and nourishing her body. She looked up at him in astonishment. The moment the pill entered her body, she knew it was extraordinary. She hadn’t expected him to give her such a pill after she had ambushed Luo Xuan.

Ye Mo produced several bottles of water, warmed them slightly with his chi, and placed them before Luo Fei. He then gave her some towels. “You can manage this yourself. I’ll wait ahead.”

Seeing the water and towels, Luo Fei was even more shocked. She knew Ye Mo carried no bags—where did the water come from? This man was enigmatic. The hot water, however, was less surprising; any cultivator could heat water with inner qi.

By the time she recovered, Ye Mo was far away.

Ye Mo shook his head. His heart had softened. Luo Fei’s experiences were pitiable. Tricked and hunted by the man she loved, and utterly used by her senior martial sister. She dared not return home.

Ye Mo sat on a rock, waiting for Luo Fei. She wouldn’t return to the small world. She owed him; if he asked, she likely wouldn’t refuse.

Luo Fei was slow. Ye Mo waited an hour, but she still didn’t emerge. He couldn’t use his spirit sense; she was having a miscarriage. He wasn’t worried, though; his Lotus Life Pill could cure something ten times worse.

Bored, Ye Mo took out his phone to call Zang Jiayan. Luo Yue was flourishing, its fame rapidly increasing. Ye Mo was pleased; the first step of his plan was working. He just needed to continue, and establishing a pharmaceutical empire wouldn't be a problem.

Becoming the world’s leading commercial empire would allow him to easily collect spirit herbs.

As he took out his phone, he realized it needed charging; the battery was dead, despite being turned off.

Ye Mo put down the phone, disappointed. He saw Luo Fei approaching and stood. She had removed her disguise, revealing a different person—a very beautiful woman. Her leaf-like brows were striking. While perhaps slightly less beautiful than Su Jingwen, her cultivation gave her a more aristocratic, royal bearing.

Ye Mo cheekily thought that if she went to a nightclub as a prostitute, she’d cause a sensation in Yu State.

The Lotus Life Pill was effective. No one could tell what she’d been through; her face was ruddy. However, a hint of sadness and despondency remained in her eyes, contrasting sharply with her appearance. Seeing her clean body, Ye Mo mentally praised her. She’d somehow showered with that small amount of water. Women were incredible creatures.

He thought of Luo Ying. In the desert, he’d given her a pond, and she’d used that small amount of water to wash herself completely clean, like the purest goddess.

Luo Ying… Longing filled Ye Mo’s eyes. He’d searched for months, but there was still no news.

Luo Fei approached Ye Mo, bowed respectfully, and said, “I don’t know your name, but thank you for saving my life. I know you must have something to ask me. I will tell you everything I know.”

Ye Mo applauded her intelligence. He waved his hand. “No need for formalities. I’m friends with Luo Xuan. She calls me Brother Ye, so you can call me that, or Ye Mo.”

Mentioning Luo Xuan made Luo Fei momentarily distracted, but she quickly recovered. Seeing his dead phone, she understood. She offered her phone. “Brother Ye, use mine.”

Ye Mo took it and called Zang Jiayan.

Zang Jiayan was ecstatic to receive Ye Mo’s call. He’d admired Ye Mo and impulsively followed him to Flowing Snake. In a short time, they’d become hugely successful. Countless CEOs and managers visited Flowing Snake just to see him.

Zang Jiayan detailed Luo Yue Corporation’s sales, but progress on collecting the herbs Ye Mo requested was slow. They hadn’t even gathered some rare herbs, let alone spirit herbs. Ye Mo was disappointed.

Zang Jiayan seemed to understand the problem; Luo Yue planned to seek partnerships in Beijing in two days, four globally. Luo Yue would provide ingredients for the beauty pill, and partners would help find materials.

Partners could develop subsidiary companies, spreading Luo Yue Corporation’s mission worldwide.

Ye Mo approved and told Zang Jiayan to call if there were problems. He might visit Beijing.

Ye Mo hung up and returned the phone.

Luo Fei looked at him in shock. “You’re the boss behind Luo Yue Corporation?”

Ye Mo smiled. “No need for mystery. I don’t reveal myself because I have other things to do. Luo Yue is mine, but I wouldn’t expect someone like you to care.”

A struggle appeared in Luo Fei’s eyes. She wanted to say something but hesitated.

Ye Mo understood. “If you have something to say, say it. If I hadn’t saved you, you’d be dead. What’s there to hesitate about?”

Luo Fei felt he was right. If Ye Mo hadn’t saved her, she’d be dead.

She bit her lip. “I have nowhere to go. I heard the beauty pill is excellent and want to buy some, but I have no money. After discovering you’re the boss of Luo Yue, I wanted to join your company, but I realized I can’t…”

“Why not?” Ye Mo asked.

Luo Fei fell silent, then replied, “My origins are mysterious. Qi Yulin came from the same place, but his status was higher. Now that he’s disappeared, I’m the first person they’ll look for. Because of the Ni Luo Sutra, I’m a target. If news gets out, everyone will believe I have it.

If I’m caught alone, I die. If I join your company, I could bring disaster. Even without that, as long as I don’t return, they’ll find me and kill me without hesitation.”

Ye Mo smiled. “So, it’s just a hidden sect. Bring disaster to my company? I wouldn’t have you join out of fear, but because I don’t care about your hidden sects. If they don’t bother me, it's fine. If they do, I’m vengeful.”
