Chapter 1238: The Formation at City Lord Estate
Translator: Timothy_ Editor: mjn0898
Ye Mo’s face went bad, he had a good impression of Ling Zhongtian and the w.a.n.g Yue Sect’s Shan Fei. He was recommended to South Peace State by Shan Fei. Although he gave them the Spirit Recovery Pill, Shan Fei also protected Mo Yue and set a hollow spirit state cultivator there.
However, it didn’t matter to him why they fought. He was worried about Mo Yue, Song Yangzhu, Ye Ling, Song Yangzhu, and the rest.
Meng Hanan suddenly asked, “Sister Ming Xin said that the three most powerful people in North Far State all got injured and then the spirit beast attacked. Could there be some shenanigans there?”
Ye Mo also felt this thing was very dodgy but he hadn’t gone back to North Far State and couldn’t be sure if someone plotted this.
Ming Xin wanted to comfort Ye Mo upon seeing his worried face but Ye Mo suddenly asked, “Ming Xin qian bei, that means when you left Pei Hai City, it was about four or five years ago?”
Ming Xin nodded. “Yes, it’s indeed been almost five years.”
Ye Mo was at a loss. Five years – so much could happen in five years.
He set up a teleportation formation at Mo Yue and could only hope that if Pei Hai City was really broken into, they would be able to leave through that.
Ming Xin said again, “Ye Mo, don’t worry. When I left, a powerful being came and humans gradually had the upper hand. As soon as they got the upper hand, countless cultivators would flock to help.”
Ye Mo sighed, he could only think like that.
Ming Xin said gratefully again, “Ye Mo, thank you for giving me this many pills.”
Ye Mo nodded. “Ming Xin qian bei, if you don’t want to stay in North Far State, you can come back with us to South Peace State this time.”
Ming Xin heard this and didn’t say anything. After a long while, she responded, “I can’t go, I have Immortal Herb Valley, if you can take someone away then take Guang Wei. Her talent is really good, it’s a waste for her to stay in North Far State.”
Guang Wei’s eyes went red and just wanted to say something when Ye Mo got up and opened the restriction of the room.
Teng Yi and Bian Fengta came back looking excited.
Ye Mo looked at the two and asked, “You two seem very happy?”
Teng Yi laughed. “It’s because we heard about the Kun scale. It’s really here but it’s in the city lord estate, each year it would be taken out for show but it’s not for sale.”
Bian Fengta said, “Every year, the city lord estate would hold a cultivation resource trade social. Before the social, the city lord would show the Kun scale to everyone. There’re about three months till the social, we can stay here for three months.”
Ye Mo was thinking about Pei Hai City but even without it, he wasn’t going to stay here for three months. He felt very uncomfortable here.
“We can’t stay here for three months,” Meng Hanan suddenly said.
She also felt very uncomfortable here.
Ye Mo nodded. “Indeed, we must leave here immediately.”
Then, he said again, “I want to visit the city lord of Yin Hai City, regardless if I can get the scale, I must try.”
“You want to visit the city lord?” Teng Yi immediately waved his hand. “You don’t need to go, you won’t be able to see him at all. It’s said he’s very powerful and doesn’t see guests, how can you see him?”
“How would I know if I don’t try? If I really can’t, we’ll leave the ciy immediately,” Ye Mo said.
Meng Hanan suddenly said, “Martial brother Ye, I’ll come with you.”
Ye Mo nodded. “Let’s go now then.”
…
As soon as they walked out, Meng Hanan said, “Ye Mo if you have Immortal Curl Flower, you might really be able to get the Kun scale.”
Ye Mo shook his head, he only had one last Immortal Curl Flower, he wasn’t going to swap it. Perhaps this was the last one in the entire cultivation realm.
Meng Hanan sighed, she knew it was probably impossible to get the Kun scale without something like the Immortal Curl Flower.
The city lord estate was right in the middle of the city. It was grand and luxurious, there was a huge square in front of it. The square was covered in blue spirit bricks, filling the place with spirit chi while making it seem royal.
Ye Mo thought of Bright Moon City when he saw this city.
When they came to the border of the square, they were stopped by two body condensation state cultivators. “Stop, this is the city lord estate, no one is allowed to come near, otherwise we have orders to kill.”
Meng Hanan thought Ye Mo would make the two body condensation state go report and then go in but Ye Mo just took out a jade slip and gave it to the body condensation state. “Give this jade slip to the city lord, it’s very important to him. Of course, you can choose to not give it, but if you can be responsible for that you can do it.”
Then, Ye Mo came to the border of the square and didn’t wait for the two to respond.
Meng Hanan looked at Ye Mo in confusion. “Ye Mo, are you sure just a jade slip is fine? What should we do? Should we leave now…”
Ye Mo proposed, “Let’s go to the spirit rest tower ahead for two hours. If he still doesn’t come then we’ll leave immediately.”
…
The two guards looked at each other.
After a while, the body condensation state said, “What should we do? Should we chase up and give it back to him?”
The other cultivator shook his head. “Even if we give it to him, if it’s something the city lord needs we won’t get away with it.”
“But we don’t have the power to give it to the city lord.” The cultivators were so desperate they were about to cry.
At this moment, a cold voice sounded, “Bring the jade slip in.”
The two heard this voice and were shaken but they quickly reacted and bowed. “We greet city lord!”
Then, the two quickly pa.s.sed the square and went into the city lord estate.
…
Ye Mo and Meng Hanan quickly came to the spirit rest tower and opened a room. They went in and didn’t talk.
Meng Hanan glanced at Ye Mo and didn’t say anything. She felt Ye Mo seemed more troubled after he left the square.
Her guess was right, Ye Mo was a level nine formation grand master, he wasn’t a top level nine formation grand master but it was impossible for ordinary formations to trick his eyes.
Knowing this, he still saw a huge formation outside the city lord estate. It wasn’t a spirit gathering formation nor defense one. It was a refining formation.
Ye Mo felt that Yin Hai City was like a small world and now he saw a refining formation, he immediately knew that someone was trying to spirit control the small world.
